The leader of the investigation stepped forward, "Aunt, please tell us the truth."
At this mont, Aunt Liu, having figured things out, couldn’t hold back anymore.
Her gaze went past the crowd and fell on Lu Yanli, who had slightly turned as if to escape.
"Xiwang’s cousin, didn’t you say that adding that herb would only make pass out? Why did I almost die?"
With Aunt Liu’s words, everyone turned their eyes to Lu Yanli.
"Oh my, the dicine that almost killed soone was actually given by Doctor Lu."
"She was trying to kill Aunt Liu."
"Why would she do this, isn’t Aunt Liu her aunt?"
"I rember, the first to discover Sister Liu was dead was her, and she was also the one who suggested we find Doctor Gu for Sister Liu’s justice."
"Turns out she planned everything."
"She wanted to kill Aunt Liu."
Lu Yanli faced the strange looks and accusations from everyone, retreating step by step, her spine chilling, shaking her head repeatedly, "It wasn’t , it wasn’t ."
Lu Yanli hadn’t expected that everything she’d planned so carefully would lead to this.
Clearly, clearly this second aunt should have died, how did she end up surviving?
Is Gu Jia Ning really that skilled?
To save soone who was almost dead, even curing such a severe case of tuberculosis!
Lu Yanli knew that no matter what, she couldn’t admit to it.
Otherwise, she would be finished.
Just then, Liu Xiwang, like an enraged little lion, angrily questioned Lu Yanli, "Lu Yanli, why would you do this? What did my mother do to deserve this, for you to deceive her and give her potentially lethal dicine?"
"Was it to fra Doctor Gu, so my mother deserved to die and be used by you?" Liu Xiwang, undoubtedly smart, imdiately figured out everything.
"Xiwang, don’t say that, your cousin did help us. We wouldn’t have co to the Northwest Military Region, and you wouldn’t be working in the canteen, if not for her." Aunt Liu, though shocked by Lu Yanli’s actions, was clear about gratitude and resentnt.
Lu Yanli had at least helped them before, which was why she trusted her so much this ti.
When Liu Xiwang heard this from his mother, he laughed in exasperation, "So that’s how you lied to my mother?"
"Mom, you were deceived by her."
"Did you think Lu Yanli was a good relative willing to help out?"
"We ca because I traded her a precious prescription for it."
What?! Was that how it really was? Aunt Liu stood there, dumbfounded.
"Mom, what exactly happened? How did she fool you? Quickly tell us everything that happened."
Aunt Liu couldn’t hide it anymore and revealed the matter of Lu Yanli asking her to find Gu Jia Ning for treatnt over a week ago.
Of course, she also ntioned that Lu Yanli gave her the strychnine today, instructing her to add it to the brew.
"She just said the dicine would only cause fainting."
"She said if I did as she told, she would arrange for you to beco a doctor at the hospital."
"Son, haven’t you always wanted to be a doctor?"
Aunt Liu didn’t think her tuberculosis could be cured, she even thought she was near death.
So, before she died, she wanted to secure a doctor position for her son to the best of her ability.
But little did she know...
Liu Xiwang didn’t expect this to be the reason.
He was almost on the verge of breaking down, "Mom, do you know why I want to be a doctor?"
"Because I want to learn dicine and cure your illness."
"But if I beco a doctor and you’re no longer here, what’s the point of being a doctor then."
"Moreover, Lu Yanli always acts in self-interest, how could you believe her words!"
"She was tricking you."
"What!" Aunt Liu’s eyes widened, realizing that Xiwang did it for her.
Upon discovering the truth, Aunt Liu burst into tears.
At this ti, everyone understood the cause and effect, unexpectedly, everything was designed by Lu Yanli, and she had indeed intended for Aunt Liu to die.
After all, seeing how she confidently declared Aunt Liu dead from the start, proved she believed the herbal dicine she gave could kill Aunt Liu.
But Aunt Liu was her aunt.
They were blood relatives.
Thinking that Lu Yanli was a doctor, her identity made everyone around shiver with dread.
With that background, wouldn’t it be easy for Lu Yanli to kill?
What about them...
Everyone around began to recall if they or their family mbers had ever sought treatnt from Lu Yanli, because if they had...
"Lu Yanli, right? Co with us for an investigation."
"No, it wasn’t , she’s making it up."
No matter how much Lu Yanli argued, she was still taken away.
If she really had nothing to do with it, it would be fine. But if she was involved, not only would she lose her identity as a doctor, but she might also go to jail, implicating even her husband.
"Brother Xi, tell the leader to dig deeper into Lu Yanli, I suspect she has innocent lives on her hands," Gu Jia Ning whispered.
She trusted the malicious intent detector.
The detector showed Lu Yanli’s malicious intent at 90%, which ant her hands were stained with blood.
Originally, Gu Jia Ning thought, could the detector have included Aunt Liu’s.
But after thinking, no.
After all, Aunt Liu didn’t die.
So it must be soone else.
Sheng Zexi looked up at Gu Jia Ning, "Okay, I know, I’ll remind them."
At this mont, Aunt Liu staggered down and knelt in front of Gu Jia Ning.
"Doctor Gu, I’m sorry, I’m sorry, I was confused."
"I shouldn’t have doubted you, shouldn’t have listened to Lu Yanli."
"And thank you for saving , otherwise I would’ve..."
"Doctor Gu, you are a good doctor, a miracle worker."
Saying this, Aunt Liu was about to bow her head to Gu Jia Ning, but Gu Jia Ning wouldn’t let her do it.
"Mr. Liu, quickly help Aunt Liu up."
Liu Xiwang realized and imdiately helped his mother up.
Gu Jia Ning looked at tearful Aunt Liu, she knew Aunt Liu was sincerely remorseful. Though Gu Jia Ning saved her, she still had a rather indifferent impression of her.
Aunt Liu knew the dicine Lu Yanli gave her would harm her, but she still drank it.
Aunt Liu wished to trade her life for her son’s job, she was willing even if it cost her life.
But...
Didn’t Aunt Liu wonder why Lu Yanli would do such a thing?
Didn’t she realize she was being treated by her here, if sothing happened, even if she wasn’t suspected of murder, her reputation as a doctor would be affected?
Aunt Liu was selfless to her son but selfish to others.
