Even though Lu Yi looked as if he wanted to tear Chen Wenzhou apart, Chen Wenzhou remained calm and unruffled as he refused, hinting that making him give up sothing he had put into his own pocket would not be so easy.
"You have no right to refuse this matter; let tell you, you must return the company to . Otherwise, even if I die, I will make sure to drag you down with !"
Once Lu Yi lost the company, he would be truly nothing but a penniless nobody, with nothing to compete against Pei Yansi.
Chen Wenzhou looked at Lu Yi’s distressed state and managed even to laugh.
He spoke leisurely, "Do you know why I refused to see visitors today? It’s because your sister, Yun Lan, was poisoned by Gu Siyu. If she doesn’t receive a detoxification within three days, she is certain to die."
"This ti, to save her, I specially invited the world’s top detoxification prodigy. However, due to an unexpected matter that ca up for them, they sent their disciple instead."
"Her disciple is a young woman in her early twenties. Honestly, when I t her, I seriously doubted she had the ability to detoxify Yun Lan and was quite worried. But now, she has already given Yun Lan the antidote."
"In three hours, we will know if Yun Lan, your sister, will live or not."
"While you were outside causing trouble just now, I was with Yun Lan in the room. Hearing that you had co, she was overjoyed, thinking you had co out of concern for her illness."
"But since I first t you until now, you haven’t ntioned your sister, Yun Lan. If she knew that all you care about is money, she would probably be very sad."
Hearing his words, Lu Yi’s grip on Chen Wenzhou’s collar lapsed for a mont, and Chen Wenzhou took the opportunity to push him off and smoothed out his crumpled collar.
But Lu Yi quickly glared at Chen Wenzhou with rage, warning him, "Don’t think you can escape by playing emotional card with ; you must return the company to . If Yun Lan finds out about this deal you made with , she will probably hate you too."
Hearing this, Chen Wenzhou just smirked sarcastically, "What makes you think that if Yun Lan knew about our deal, she would only hate ? Wouldn’t she hate you as well? Don’t forget, it was you who begged to sell you that dicine pill."
"You are the one who failed to make good use of that dicine pill; now you bla , thinking you have been shortchanged, right? If there is anyone to bla, it’s your own incompetence."
With just a few sentences, Chen Wenzhou hit a nerve for Lu Yi, who, out of anger caused by Chen Wenzhou’s words, clenched his fists again, ready to punch him.
Just then, Lu Yunlan appeared at the top of the stairs. Seeing Lu Yi raising his fist towards Chen Wenzhou, she panicked and cried out.
"Brother! What are you doing? Put your hand down imdiately!" Lu Yunlan shouted with urgency, drawing the attention of both Chen Wenzhou and Lu Yi.
Chen Wenzhou turned to see Lu Yunlan hurrying down the stairs and quickly stood up to et her, carefully helping her down, while reminding her, "It hasn’t been three hours yet; why don’t you rest and wait for the detoxification? What if sothing goes wrong with you running around like this?"
"Just now, Dr. Qin pricked my finger with a needle and found that the black blood in my body has beco very normal. Maybe I don’t need to wait three hours, and the poison in my body will be completely cleared. She told I could get out of bed."
Chen Wenzhou, upon hearing Lu Yunlan’s words, glared at Qin Jiu’er, resenting her for speaking too much. Otherwise, Lu Yunlan wouldn’t be down here at this mont, potentially ruining the situation.
In fact, Qin Jiu’er had only wanted to co out to see the drama unfold, and moreover, since Yun Lan had taken her antidote, even if she were to bounce around right now, there wouldn’t be any problems at all; there truly was no issue.
"What were you arguing about with brother? Were you having a fight? Can’t you talk things out peacefully instead of resorting to fists?"
Lu Yunlan walked down to Lu Yi and looked at him, relieved that neither of them had visible injuries on their faces.
"Yun Lan, you were poisoned the other day; how do you feel after taking the antidote? Has your condition improved much?" Lu Yi, seeing Lu Yunlan’s gaunt appearance, could not help but feel a shred of compassion as he asked about her wellbeing once more.
Lu Yunlan smiled encouragingly, then she took Chen Wenzhou and Lu Yi by the hand to sit down on either side of her, acting as a diator between them.
"Brother, you don’t need to worry anymore. My health has improved a lot. The first few days after being poisoned, I didn’t even have the strength to drink water, but now my spirits are much better, and I feel energized to do anything."
"Never mind ; what happened between you two just now? I never saw you like this before, sothing big must have happened."
Lu Yunlan had just witnessed their near fight, her heart was in her throat, worried that so misunderstanding had occurred between them that might lead to conflict.
Chen Wenzhou chuckled, intending to reassure Lu Yunlan; he held her hand and gently patted the back of it.
"Don’t worry about it, nothing major happened between us. It’s normal for n to have little frictions, but it won’t affect our relationship. You just focus on getting better."
While Chen Wenzhou was comforting Lu Yunlan, Lu Yi sat by silently for a mont, but upon hearing Chen Wenzhou’s words, he felt his anger boiling inside him.
"What do you an nothing happened! You tricked into trading all my assets for a re herb you had, and now that dicine pill is useless to . I asked you to return the company to and you refused; don’t forget, it was never yours to take. It’s the Lu Family’s company!"
Upon hearing Chen Wenzhou’s words, Lu Yi was burning with anger, imdiately interrupting him.
"What?" Lu Yunlan, shocked by Lu Yi’s words, turned pale and looked at Chen Wenzhou in disbelief.
"You traded a dicine pill for the Lu Family’s company? Is this true? Why haven’t I heard you ntion it before?" Lu Yunlan asked Chen Wenzhou frantically, hoping he would provide an answer.
"He intends to swallow our family’s assets; why would he tell you about it? I ca here today to make him return the company to , but he refused. Yun Lan, you may need to help !"
