The ex-wife is rebellious, which makes the CEO feel troubled

Ning Xi's eyebrows sank when she mentioned this matter, "It's not an illness. I boiled Chinese medicine every day to condition my uncle's body according to his symptoms. Logically speaking, his physical condition shouldn't be so bad..."

It's not illness... could it be poisoning?

Seeing that Ning Xi didn't mention it, Ji Yunxu couldn't ask directly.

He pondered for a moment and said slowly: "Last time I smelled a familiar fragrance on Uncle Wen, I didn't think of it for a moment. It wasn't until I got back to the laboratory that I realized it was the smell of jade lilac extract."

After speaking, he paused for a moment before continuing: "If you smell this for a long time, you will have symptoms of nausea, vomiting, and dizziness. I don't know if this is the reason for Uncle Wen's cough."

The more she listened, the anger on Ning Xi's face became heavier, "So, uncle was poisoned by Jade Lilac?"

Ji Yunxu nodded, "It's very possible."

Ning Xi's hand on her side trembled slightly, her head lowered as she thought thoughtfully.

No wonder! She has never found the cause of her uncle's poisoning, but she didn't expect that the trigger turned out to be this!

Seeing her devastated look, Ji Yunxu felt very uncomfortable and comforted her softly: "Don't worry. When we get to the hotel later, we will go to Uncle Wen's room to see if there is anything abnormal."

Ning Xi's eyes were filled with coldness and she nodded.

She will never let go of the person who poisoned her uncle!

When they arrived at the hotel, they went straight to their uncle's room. However, after turning the suite upside down, nothing unusual was found.

The fragrance on the bedroom table, the incense burner in the study, and even the soap in the bathroom were carefully inspected by the two.

But the smell seemed to disappear out of thin air, leaving nothing behind.

Ning Xi thought for a while and opened the closet directly, but she only smelled the faint fragrance of laundry detergent.

After searching for a long time, the two found nothing.

It was getting late, and Ji Yunxu couldn't wait any longer. He looked up at the dark night sky and said warmly: "Xiao Xi, I'm going back first, and I'll come back tomorrow to help you find it."

Ning Xi slowly shook her head, "After searching for so long, it seems that the poisoner was very cautious. Since my uncle's body is stained with the smell of jade lilac, it means that he must have been in contact with the poison for a long time."

Her eyes were cold, and there was a cold light in her eyes: "Those who want to poison will not give up. We just need to wait quietly..."

Ji Yunxu raised his hand and patted her shoulder, "Okay, I'll accompany you."

Ning Xi turned her head and met his eyes, "Thank you for telling me this. Go back quickly. I'm sorry to trouble you today."

"Why are you being polite to me?" Ji Yunxu lowered his eyes and chuckled helplessly, the tenderness in his eyes almost turning into water. "If you need me to do anything, please contact me. Don't do it alone."

Ning Xi glanced at him gratefully. When the car disappeared from sight, she turned around and returned to the room with a frown.

Early the next morning, Ning Xi prepared the medicine and sent it to the hospital. Unexpectedly, as soon as he walked to the door of the ward, he met Qin Yu who happened to be checking the ward.

Seeing her best friend, Qin Yu was also stunned, "Why are you in the hospital?"

Ning Xi raised the thermos flask in her hand and sighed softly: "My uncle is sick and hospitalized. I came here to deliver medicine to him."

"Ah?" Hearing this, Qin Yu was even more surprised, "Uncle is sick? Why didn't you tell me when?"

Ning Xi pursed her lips and shook her head, "Aren't you going out for research these days, so I didn't bother you."

Qin Yu frowned and stared into her eyes, "Why are you always like this! You didn't say anything when you were bullied in the Gu family before, and now you don't say anything when your uncle is sick. Do you not regard me as a good friend at all?"

As she spoke, she crossed her arms across her chest and turned to walk back.

"Hey, hey." Ning Xi quickly took her arm, "Okay, okay, I was wrong. I will be the first to tell you no matter what happens next time."

She looked down on Qin Yu's face and said cautiously, "I'm just afraid that you are too tired, and I feel sorry for you."

After coaxing him for a long time, Qin Yu snorted softly and nodded condescendingly, "Speaking of which, I haven't met my uncle yet, so I'll visit with you."

Ning Xi laughed dumbly, held her hand, and they walked into the ward together.

Wen Mochen's health has improved a lot and he is sitting on the hospital bed drinking rice porridge.

Seeing someone coming in, he put down the bowl, raised his eyebrows and chuckled: "Xiao Xi is here, huh? Is this...?"

Ning Xi extended her hand and introduced: "This is my good friend since childhood, Qin Yu. Qin Yu, this is my uncle."

"Hello, Miss Qin." Wen Mochen nodded slightly, his voice was clean and gentle, with a little smile.

He is tall and straight, elegant and handsome. Although he is sitting on the hospital bed, he does not look decadent at all. Instead, he looks more gentle because he is a little sicker.

Qin Yu was slightly startled and looked at his handsome face for two seconds before she realized what she was doing and smiled softly: "Hello, uncle."

After the two of them greeted each other.

Ning Xi strode to the hospital bed, took out the thermos, poured the warm decoction into the bowl, and handed it to Wen Mochen: "Drink it while it's hot."

"Okay." Wen Mochen nodded, took the medicine bowl and drank it in one gulp.

Qin Yu asked softly from the side: "Is uncle still feeling uncomfortable?"

After getting a negative answer, she frowned worriedly, "Okay, if you need anything, you can call me anytime. It's convenient for me to work in the hospital."

"Miss Qin is really young and promising." Wen Mochen smiled softly and gracefully.

"You are joking." Qin Yu shook her head quickly, "Xiao Xi is the most talented in our class..."

As she spoke, she couldn't help but raise her eyes and quietly look at Wen Mochen's face with her peripheral vision.

She thought she was watching secretly, but she didn't expect that every move she made was in Ning Xi's eyes.

Ning Xi looked at Qin Yu with a complicated expression for a long time. This unreliable face control started to act like a nympho again.

……

In the lobby of Gu Group, the employees were in a hurry, and a slender figure walked slowly to the front desk.

The person who came was a man in his early twenties, with a wide waist and narrow shoulders. His shirt was casually unbuttoned, revealing his sexy collarbones. His short platinum hair, sparkling diamond earrings, and sunglasses covering half of his face made him look unruly.

"Hello~" He raised his eyebrows and smiled, tapping his long white knuckles on the marble table, "I'm looking for Mr. Gu."

The front desk lady's cheeks were slightly red and she didn't dare to raise her eyes to meet the man, "Do you have an appointment?"

"No." Shen Zhi's voice was low, with a long drawl, "But I had an appointment with Mr. Gu alone."

He smiled slightly and slowly handed the phone to the front desk lady, "Here, he asked me to go up directly."

Seeing that he really knew his CEO, the receptionist quickly nodded respectfully and trotted Shen Zhi to the elevator.

Shen Zhi strode into the elevator, turned around and looked at the little girl in front of him, slightly raising his brows, his peach blossom eyes filled with tenderness.

As the elevator door slowly closed, the receptionist covered her beating heart.

Who knows? This is so handsome!
