Chapter 413: Chapter 413: There are Hallucinogens in Grandma’s Body!
Li Lingyang’s expression was stern and cold, devoid of any concession, “I’ve already arranged for Special Assistant Xu to search for the old butler’s whereabouts. Additionally, I’ll take another look at who Grandma has been in contact with recently!”
“Hmm, let’s just hope everything goes smoothly and doesn’t let down her efforts…”
Ning Yichu gazed through the transparent glass at the frail old woman lying on the hospital bed, her eyes filled with deep guilt.
The sudden occurrence of such an incident also left Li Lingyang feeling unsettled.
But precisely because of this, he had to ensure a thorough investigation was conducted!
A sharp gleam passed through his ink-black eyes.
Those who have hard Grandma, Chu Chu, and the children—he would not let any of them get away…
…
The rain gradually stopped…
Dark clouds gathered overhead, puddles were everywhere on the ground, and the cold air was particularly clear.
Ning Yichu originally intended to help take care of Old Madam Li, but with Su Huimiao there, she obviously didn’t have the chance…
Thus, after dealing with the traffic police, she ca to the hospital’s back garden to catch her breath.
Under such circumstances, Ning Yichu definitely couldn’t leave the hospital anyti soon, so she contacted Xiao Ai and Fan YuKe to arrange work and take care of the children first.
Just after finishing a call, before putting her phone away, a familiar figure appeared in her line of vision.
The man was wearing a black wool coat, standing tall.
His originally gentle and handso face was now tinged with solemnity and urgency as he ran towards her with long strides.
“Chu Chu, are you okay? Did the Li Family give you a hard ti?!!” Mo Baiyou stared at her anxiously.
It rendered Ning Yichu a bit muddled, her face full of surprise, “Mo… Mr. Mo, why are you here?”
“I went to your studio today to look for you, and heard from Xiao Ai that you had to take a leave for an ergency. Worried, I asked soone to investigate, and found out about Old Madam Li’s car accident, so I ca to check…”
Mo Baiyou hadn’t seen her in the inpatient departnt, so he hurried down to look.
His brows were furrowed, his gaze concerned as he asked, “How are you? Are you hurt?!”
The incident of Ning Yichu crashing into Old Madam Li was no longer a secret in Imperial City’s high society circles.
“I’m okay. It’s just Grandma…” Ning Yichu’s heart sank as she thought of this, her complexion worsened.
Who knew if she could ever wake up again…
“Don’t worry, Old Madam Li has her fortune looking out for her. She’ll undoubtedly be fine.”
Mo Baiyou was most worried about her now.
Ning Yichu sighed in grief, deeply regretful, “I didn’t an to. I truly didn’t think such a thing would happen…”
“Chu Chu, I believe you! No matter what, I’ll stand by your side unconditionally, and…”
Mo Baiyou’s voice was firm and powerful, providing a sense of security.
“After learning about the car accident, I felt sothing was odd and bizarre, so leveraged so special relations and sent people to First Renimin Hospital to investigate. However, the caras on the floor where Old Madam Li stays were all sabotaged this morning, so I had to take a different approach and looked into the surrounding areas of the hospital. Persistence finally paid off with so clues, though I don’t know if it’ll be of any help to you!”
Ning Yichu was stunned, watching him pull out his phone and scroll through the video footage.
He highlighted several suspicious points.
“Chu Chu, look, when Old Madam Li was leaving the hospital, her steps were unsteady and clearly off.”
“And initially, the old butler was by her side…”
Ning Yichu’s heart suddenly tightened, “Can you investigate other road surveillance?”
“No,” Mo Baiyou’s face was grave, “I checked other traffic surveillance and did not see Old Madam Li and them anywhere along the way…”
Ning Yichu couldn’t help but bite her lip tightly.
From the start, the old butler wasn’t with Grandma…
Moreover, Grandma’s health had significantly recovered; how could she suddenly beco so weak and powerless? Clearly, soone had tampered with things!
“Since when did Mr. Mo beco interested in the affairs of the Li Family?!”
Suddenly, a cold, mocking voice interrupted Ning Yichu’s thoughts from behind.
Li Lingyang had arrived at so point, standing grimly at the side of the path.
Mo Baiyou’s face instantaneously turned cold, “If it weren’t for the fact that this matter concerns Chu Chu, do you think I’d care?”
“Why did you co downstairs? How’s Grandma?” Ning Yichu turned her head, asking in worry.
Li Lingyang glanced at her pallid and haggard appearance, angrily glaring at Mo Baiyou as he suppressed his inner rage.
“I’ve arranged for trusted caretakers nearby, and both parents are overseeing things, so it’ll be okay. I ca down to find you because… Chu Chu, Grandma’s test results are out!”
Instantly, Ning Yichu’s attention was diverted, her expression tense, “How is it?”
Li Lingyang feared soone would hinder their efforts to uncover the truth.
Hence, he replaced the entire team with his confidants.
“Our earlier suspicions were indeed correct; the doctors found hallucinogenic substances in Grandma’s body…”
Ning Yichu recalled the surveillance footage, her face changing dramatically, “Soone switched Grandma’s early morning dication!”
Hallucinogens…
Even without her, given Old Madam Li’s condition at that ti, other accidents would have occurred.
This was clearly an attempt to ensure Old Madam Li never speaks again…
Their motives were so vicious!!
At that mont, Ning Yichu truly felt an urge to kill.
Li Lingyang felt the sa; the thought of his beloved grandmother being sched against uncontrollably fueled his anger.
His dark eyes filled with endless chill, “On the surface, they’re targeting Grandma; privately, you might be the key, Chu Chu. Try to stay near in the upcoming period.”
Ning Yichu pursed her lips, “I have other things I want to do, but rest assured, before the culprit hurting Grandma is caught, I won’t let anything happen to myself!”
Li Lingyang’s brows furrowed deeply, but before he could speak, his phone suddenly rang; it was…
Special Assistant Xu calling!
He quickly answered, his voice cold and deep, “Is there a clue?”
“No…” Special Assistant Xu’s voice was grim on the phone, “President Li, the nursing ho just reported that Shen Jiangqing is back in the ergency room, critically ill. If surgery isn’t perford today, she might not hold on!!”
Shen Jiangqing had already reached a point of exhaustion, surviving only through dication.
The experts from the nursing ho said that if she fought back a bit, she could last at least another month or so.
But what surprised Li Lingyang was that Shen Jiangqing’s condition had deteriorated again; surgery couldn’t be postponed.
The cold and stern expression on his face changed repeatedly, his gaze dark and uncertain, he spoke in a deep voice, “Call Majesty to go over.”
