What Xiao Song put in Bai Yuechen's mouth was not a peanut, but a shelled nut.

Once Bai Yuechen regains consciousness and starts crying loudly, the nut in her mouth will be pushed into her throat by the vibrations in her throat.

As for the consequences, there's no need to even think about them.

This nut is like a time bomb, ready to explode at any moment.

Xiao Song intended to use the nuts to plunge Zhou Xinyao into an abyss of despair.

At this time, most people were having dinner together in the restaurant, and no one paid any attention to where Xiao Song was.

After achieving her goal, Xiao Song quickly turned around and left the nursery, pretending to know nothing as she entered the dining room.

The atmosphere at the old house was exceptionally lively today, as this was Zhou Xinyao's first family reunion dinner since returning home.

Not only Xiao Song, but also Wang Ma and the old housekeeper, along with several servants, sat down at one side of the dining table to have dinner with the host family.

Everyone gathered together and enjoyed eating and drinking to their heart's content.

But beneath the clinking of glasses, everyone harbored their own thoughts.

Zhou Xinyao completely ignored the gazes of others, focusing all her attention on Bai Yunchuan.

After their reunion, Zhou Xinyao took Bai Yunchuan's arm and they went back to their bedroom together.

As soon as the door was closed, Zhou Xinyao quickly pressed for details about the progress of the examination of the empty capsule.

"Yun Chuan, what were the results of that capsule?"

Bai Yunchuan's brows hadn't relaxed since he returned home. Zhou Xinyao knew Bai Yunchuan's character well and naturally knew that he must have received some bad news.

Bai Yunchuan walked to the dressing table, picked up the briefcase placed on the table, and took out a few pieces of paper from it.

"The investigation results came out just before the end of the workday."

Bai Yunchuan didn't say much, and directly handed the paper in his hand to Zhou Xinyao.

Zhou Xinyao took the sheet of paper with the survey details written on it and read it carefully from beginning to end.

Zhou Xinyao gasped when she saw the end.

"This... that capsule really did contain sleeping pills! It seems there really is someone in this old house who wants to harm our Yuechen."

Images flashed through Zhou Xinyao's mind, further solidifying his suspicions about Xiao Song.

After thinking for a moment, Zhou Xinyao told Bai Yunchuan what she was thinking.

"I am now certain that Xiao Song is the one who murdered our child, and it was definitely Xiao Song who put the sleeping pills in!"

Bai Yunchuan and Zhou Xinyao looked at each other, seeing the determination in each other's eyes.

Zhou Xinyao pointed to the paper in her hand and continued speaking.

“I remember that when Peng Li left the old house, the old housekeeper had already cleaned the nursery again, and at that time there must have been no dangerous items in the nursery.”

"But we discovered this empty capsule last night..."

Zhou Xinyao didn't say what came next, and all the signs pointed to Xiao Song alone.

Bai Yunchuan snorted coldly, his face even colder, and added in a deep voice.

“That’s right. Since the nanny Peng Li left the old house, the only person taking care of Yuechen is Xiao Song. The empty capsule we found could only have been given to Yuechen by Xiao Song.”

After the conclusion was reached, Zhou Xinyao and Bai Yunchuan fell into a brief silence.

Bai Yuechen is only a few months old and can't even speak yet. How could Xiao Song be so cruel to treat a child like this?

Zhou Xinyao's face, usually so gentle, was now filled with endless disappointment in Xiao Song.

"I could tolerate Xiao Song's unreasonable behavior before, but since she has targeted Yuechen, I cannot forgive her so easily!"

The more Zhou Xinyao thought about it, the angrier she became. Recalling past events, she suddenly felt a chill run down her spine.

Fortunately, it was discovered early, and Xiao Song didn't do anything irreparable to Bai Yuechen.

Bai Yunchuan stepped forward and pulled Zhou Xinyao into his arms.

"Heh, Little Song is incredibly audacious! She actually dared to touch my child. I'll make her wish she were dead!"

Bai Yunchuan had already come up with a million plans to kill Xiao Song, and was just waiting to decide on one before implementing it.

Zhou Xinyao leaned against Bai Yunchuan's chest, feeling warmth she hadn't felt in a long time.

Recalling the days when she ran away from home, Zhou Xinyao was glad that she returned home early.

"Yun Chuan, I'll handle Xiao Song. Yue Chen is my own child, and I absolutely cannot let him be drugged so easily."

Zhou Xinyao lowered her eyes, her gaze dark and unfathomable, showing none of her usual gentle demeanor.

He took out the phone and called the old housekeeper into their bedroom.

When the old housekeeper arrived, Zhou Xinyao told him the results of her investigation.

The three of them gathered together and finalized a plan on how to punish Xiao Song.

The old housekeeper stood aside, took out his phone, and opened the monitoring app.

"Madam, this morning I secretly installed a miniature camera in the young master's room, specifically pointed at him..."

Originally, the old housekeeper only wanted to tell Zhou Xinyao that he had installed a miniature camera.

Unexpectedly, when the app was opened and the playback started, a scene immediately appeared showing Xiao Song sneaking into the nursery.

Zhou Xinyao quickly opened her eyes wide, her face filled with disbelief, and exclaimed.

"What is Xiao Song going to do?"

This exclamation immediately drew Bai Yunchuan's attention, and the three of them stared intently at the phone in the old housekeeper's hand, wanting to see what Xiao Song had been doing in the nursery.

Because the miniature camera was pointed directly at Bai Yuechen, Xiao Song's every move was recorded on the screen.

"What exactly did Xiao Song put in Yuechen's mouth? Could it be that capsule again?"

Zhou Xinyao glanced at the time on the monitor; it was exactly half an hour ago.

Now, the most important thing is to figure out what exactly Xiao Song put in Bai Yuechen's mouth.

Without much thought, Zhou Xinyao lifted her foot and rushed out of the bedroom, heading straight for the nursery where Bai Yuechen was.

Bai Yuechen was fast asleep and had no idea that someone had entered the nursery.

With a face full of concern, Zhou Xinyao gently walked to Bai Yuechen's side, not wanting to wake him from his dream.

The next second, the ceiling light in the nursery was turned on, and the entire room was completely illuminated.

In his haste, the old housekeeper forgot that Bai Yuechen was still asleep and turned on the overhead light switch.

The sudden switching on of the lights startled Bai Yuechen awake from his dream.

A loud cry rang out, signifying that Bai Yuechen had woken up from her dream.

"Cough cough!"

A violent cough suddenly came from Bai Yuechen's mouth.

Zhou Xinyao looked panicked and quickly picked Bai Yuechen up from the crib, gently patting Bai Yuechen's back with her right hand.

"Cough! Cough!"
