"What?" Su Ge’s face changed instantly, "Sister Lixin, are you... are you saying..."
"I don’t have any concrete evidence, just suspicions."
Wen Lixin looked a bit helpless, "Now that Grandpa Chu is ill, everything is decided by Chu Yunwei and Liu Fengi. Even regarding calling a doctor, Tianrui and I don’t have much say in it, to avoid gossip. But I am truly worried about Grandpa. He’s old and still has to suffer these pains."
Wen Lixin then glanced toward the Old Master’s bedroom.
Su Ge saw her look and a flicker of light passed through the depths of her eyes.
Even if Wen Lixin was grateful to the Old Master for speaking in her favor in front of Chu Yihan, which helped her gain the executive power of Wen Group, her attitude towards the Old Master shouldn’t have changed so much.
After all, she and Chu Tianrui have been discontent with the fact that the company was handed over to Chu Yunwei for years.
Such discontent couldn’t possibly be dispelled by so small favors.
"Sister Lixin, could it be you’re overthinking it?"
Su Ge asked cautiously once more.
"I hope I am overthinking it," Wen Lixin took a sip of tea from the cup on the table.
Setting down the tea cup, she continued, "Xiao Ge, I have so docunts to deal with, I need to go back. If you don’t want to see Chu Yihan, stay here and keep Grandpa company for a while longer."
"Alright, go ahead, Sister Lixin."
Su Ge watched Wen Lixin leave.
Watching her departing figure, a glimr flashed in Su Ge’s eyes again.
Who exactly is the culprit who poisoned Grandpa?
No sooner had Wen Lixin left than Su Ge hurriedly called a servant to prepare the tools for administering dicine.
The antidote for the poison in Grandpa’s body was already concocted after an afternoon of work.
Just a small dose administered daily and slowly Grandpa’s health would begin to improve.
Barring any accidents, in half a month at most, Grandpa should be completely recovered.
The servant quickly brought the items Su Ge had instructed to be prepared.
Su Ge personally mixed the dicine, then walked to the bedside. Looking at the Old Master’s sleeping figure, she thought for a mont and gently nudged him twice, "Grandpa, Grandpa."
The Old Master didn’t open his eyes, but his breathing beca much lighter.
"Grandpa, this is the dicine Xiao Ge prepared for you. Take the dicine first."
Guessing that the Old Master probably heard her, Su Ge picked up the spoon and slowly fed the dicine into the Old Master’s mouth.
The Old Master cooperated, swallowing the dicine Su Ge fed him.
It was not until all the dicine had been fed that Su Ge finally showed a relieved smile, "Grandpa, rest easy now, you won’t suffer any harm, Xiao Ge will save you."
After saying this Su Ge got up to leave, handing the dicine bowl to the servant.
It was already late at night, and the moon was bright.
Su Ge looked outside and precisely then saw a dark figure flitting under the moonlight.
"Who’s there?" Su Ge’s expression turned cold suddenly.
Who’s lurking behind the door?
There’s still soone skulking around in Chu Garden?
Su Ge waited for two seconds without any response and threatened directly, "If you don’t show yourself, I will call for others."
"Don’t call, don’t call, I’ll co out, okay?" Chu Qinghong’s lazy, unrestrained voice rang out as he raised his hands and walked out from behind the door.
Seeing him, Su Ge frowned, "Chu Qinghong, what are you doing skulking around here late at night?"
"What else can I be doing? I ca to see what you’re up to here, skulking around Grandpa late at night." Chu Qinghong walked in, looking at Su Ge with suspicion, "I just saw a servant take sothing out, Su Xiaoge, did you feed Grandpa sothing he shouldn’t have?"
