The people sent by Mr. Yun arrived quickly, in less than fifteen minutes. It was Luo Datou who ca piloting a helicopter. In his later years, Luo Datou beca obsessed with flying, so Mr. Yun asked Uncle Mu to buy a helicopter for him in U country and even specially arranged for a small helipad at the Yun Mansion. Luo Datou would take the kids up for a spin whenever he had the chance.
At this mont, Sisi was still convulsing continuously, but to Old Man’s relief, Sisi’s condition did not seem to deteriorate. It seed that bottle of Qiong Wine had taken effect.
Luo Datou landed the helicopter at the entrance of the Tian Family’s house, where a small helicopter could just about fit.
The neighbors around were already frightened by the sudden descent of the helicopter, and one by one they ca out to see what was happening. Old Man heard the sound of the helicopter’s parachute and, without a word, picked up Sisi and rushed out. Now it was a race against ti, every minute saved might give Ah Nan a greater chance of being rescued.
"What’s wrong with Ah Nan?" Luo Datou asked as he took over Sisi with a stern face.
"Poisoned. First save Ah Nan, I’ll report this to the gentleman later." Old Man’s face was solemn too, he already had a plan in mind.
"Great-granduncle, is my mom going to die?" Upon seeing Luo Datou, Du Du burst into tears.
"Nonsense, your mother won’t die!"
Luo Datou rebuked gently, placed Sisi securely, and also lifted Du Du up. It didn’t seem safe at the Tian Family, and he was worried about leaving Little Dudu here. If anything else happened, the gentleman would be devastated.
Old Man wanted very much to go to the hospital with them, but he couldn’t. There was still an unhandled troublemaker at ho!
Moreover, earlier Sisi took sothing out from her bracelet, did that bastard see it?
No, whether seen or not, he couldn’t take the risk!
For Ah Nan, for the century-long fortune of the Tian Family, Tian Liu Jin had to make a decision!
At the sa ti, Tian Xinhua, who was presiding over a regular eting in City F, suddenly felt a sharp pain in his chest and couldn’t help but groan, dropping the eting script in his hand.
"Secretary Tian, what’s wrong with you?"
The quick-witted Xiao Zheng hurriedly supported Tian Xinhua, while others gathered around with expressions of concern, asking questions one after another.
The sense of unease in Tian Xinhua’s heart grew stronger. He knew his own health, it definitely wasn’t a physical issue.
Sothing happened, sothing must have happened in the Capital City!
"Vice Mayor Jin, please continue presiding over this eting."
After giving instructions, Tian Xinhua got up and walked towards the office, with Xiao Zheng quickly following, leaving a group of confused municipal committee mbers behind.
At the Yun Mansion, only Kang Mianhua, Niu Erniu, Little Maodou, and the little leopard were left. Kang Mianhua and Niu Erniu were worried and bewildered, unsure of Sisi’s condition in the hospital. How could she have been poisoned out of the blue?
Little Maodou and the little leopard didn’t know what had happened, but they knew their aunt was in trouble, so they sat obediently on the bench, not making a fuss.
The phone rang, and it was Niu Erniu who picked it up. As soon as she heard Tian Xinhua’s voice, she felt like she had soone to rely on and relayed everything that the gentleman had instructed her.
It turned out that after Mr. Yun went to the hospital, the experts from the military hospital were summoned by him. When they saw that the poison in the congee was cyanide and at a very high concentration, they told Mr. Yun that they couldn’t guarantee saving Sisi.
Thus, Mr. Yun called back to instruct Niu Erniu that if Tian Xinhua called, she should tell him the truth. In case anything happened to Sisi, it was necessary to let them have a final eting.
Upon hearing from Niu Erniu that Sisi was poisoned and in the hospital being rescued, Tian Xinhua imdiately dropped the phone and rushed out.
"Xiao Zheng, I must return to the Capital City at once. Here, Vice Mayor Jin and Vice Secretary Ge will oversee the work jointly, and you assist them."
Tian Xinhua walked quickly, assigning tasks to his assistant as he went. Xiao Zheng had to run breathlessly to keep up, nodding continuously.
Though he was also curious about what had happened in the Capital City, as an excellent assistant, the most important rule was not to ask questions one shouldn’t. When the leader is willing to tell you sothing, you listen. And if he’s not, even if you know, you must pretend you don’t.
This was the rule of being an assistant that his predecessor and master, Assistant Xu, taught him.
Now Assistant Xu had beco Vice County Magistrate Xu.
Capital City
Tian Lili watched helplessly as Sisi was flown away by the helicopter, and she was dumbfounded.
Didn’t Chang Yunhuan say that the drug would only slowly disfigure her?
Why did He Sisi end up like this?
What on earth happened?
Could it be that Chang Yunhuan mixed up the dicine?
Tian Lili, with her limited ntal capacity, really couldn’t understand how things had turned out this way. Pathetically and frustratingly, she still didn’t realize she had been played by her own lover.
The Old Man reluctantly forced a smile to the neighbors who had gathered out of curiosity, "My granddaughter-in-law had a stomach issue, her grandfather was too worried, so he sent out the helicopter, sorry for alarming everyone."
The neighbors laughed it off and said it was no problem, expressing additional care, their warm attitude slightly more sycophantic than before.
No one here was a fool. Before, they only knew that the old man of the Tian Family was a retired military cadre with so standing, but they hadn’t expected his in-laws to have such influence!
Didn’t you see that the mont he got worried about his granddaughter, he even sent out a helicopter?
Did you think that’s like your family bike? Just ride it whenever?
Helicopter, wow! Goodness gracious!
The Old Man didn’t chatter much with the neighbors. Once he entered the yard, he tightly shut the door, and upon seeing Tian Lili standing dumbfounded at the kitchen door, his anger imdiately surged.
Forcing down the urge to kick this granddaughter to death, the Old Man walked up to Tian Lili, grabbed her by the hair, and dragged her into the living room.
Tian Lili wanted to scream loudly, but the Old Man dislocated her jaw with a punch, leaving her only able to make ’ah ah’ sounds.
Thus, Tian Lili was dragged into the living room by the Old Man. Terrified by the icy deanor of the Old Man, Tian Lili was pale. She had never seen the Old Man like this, as if he was going to devour her.
And his eyes, sharp as knives, she dared not et his gaze. By this ti, how could Tian Lili not realize that the Old Man was truly furious?
Pitiful Tian Lili still didn’t know that the Old Man wasn’t just furious but had murderous intent!
"Old tir, what’s going on? How did Ah Nan suddenly fall sick?" Granny Zhao still hadn’t figured out what was happening, her mind utterly confused.
"Ask this good granddaughter of yours, what did she put in the congee?" The Old Man flung Tian Lili to the ground and furiously yelled at Granny Zhao.
The Old Man also harbored resentnt towards Granny Zhao at that mont, blaming her for letting the wolf into the house, but he blad himself even more for not stopping Granny Zhao. Why had he grown soft-hearted with age, causing harm to Ah Nan?
The self-blaming Old Man glared at Tian Lili as if looking at a corpse, causing a chill in Granny Zhao’s heart. Having lived with him for many years, she knew her man’s temperant.
The old man had murderous intent!
"Old tir, don’t..." Granny Zhao pleaded.
