The scumbag Bai Lianhua was abused, and Li Shao specifically asked to marry her
Chapter 249: First Meeting with Mr. Thorne
Get everyone's approval.
Su Shihao and his companions took Su Mengyan and the others and immediately went to Wuying Pavilion, but they did not enter through the main gate as usual.
This was Li Jinchen's reminder, which made Harrison a little confused when he heard it.
But he still did not express any objection, and followed Su Shihao obediently, leading these people into the secret passage that only they knew about.
The entrance to the secret passage is in a villa at the foot of a mountain.
This was also the place where Harrison spent most of his time as a child. After being rescued by his grandfather, he was hidden in the villa because he was worried that his identity would be exposed.
It was not until a few years ago when Su Shihao became Thorne's disciple that he had human companionship.
Looking past the familiar layout, Su Shihao glanced silently at the person behind him.
Seeing that he was calm, I felt relieved.
After all, the scene when he first saw the ten-year-old boy was always lingering in his mind.
It was a small creature, squatting beside the sofa in the living room, and was very resistant to my sudden visit, with its eyes full of panic and fear.
Fortunately, everything is over. With the help of him and Thorne, Harrison has now gotten rid of that horrible memory. The growth he has seen in the past few days has made him feel gratified.
Their thoughts continued to flow, and soon they arrived at a pearwood door.
Harrison placed his thumb close to the round handle on the door and scanned it for a moment. The cabinet surface then split open to both sides, revealing a wide secret passage before everyone's eyes.
Li Jinchen subconsciously held the little girl's hand tightly at this moment and followed the footsteps of the two people in front of him.
Unlike what was expected, this place is not dark and gloomy. Instead, the surrounding walls are covered with murals of children playing, which are lifelike and make you feel like you have walked into the corridors of an amusement park, retaining the innocence of the children.
We continued to move forward and finally arrived at our destination.
This time, what comes into view is a black metal door.
Harrison scanned the pupils on the instrument beside him, and with a click, the door opened.
Just like that, without anyone outside knowing, several people arrived at Mr. Thorne's bedroom.
The old man was lying on the bed with steady breathing, a nutrient injection hanging on his wrinkled right hand, his eyes were closed, his face was pale, and he looked lifeless.
Even though he was very worried, Harrison still quietly stepped aside so that Su Mengyan could better check on the old man's condition.
Seeing this, Li Jinchen also let go of the girl's hand.
Su Mengyan walked forward and gently stroked the old man's pulse. As he expected, the pulse was scattered and disordered, but it was different from the pulse of a coma, and it was more floating. But perhaps the old man still had his will, and he was constantly pulling each other.
When she withdrew her hand, Su Mengyan signaled Li Jinchen with her eyes, and the man immediately handed over the bag.
The moment the silver needle was taken out, Harrison became obviously more nervous. Su Shihao patted his shoulder soothingly but did not say any more comforting words.
She has immense trust in Su Mengyan. If Mr. Thorne has no hope in her hands, then probably no one else in the world can do it.
The room was extremely quiet, and I was afraid that my noise would disturb the person who was receiving acupuncture treatment.
After a long time, when all the silver needles on Mr. Thorne's body were removed, Su Shihao dared to ask.
"Sister, Mr. Thorne?"
Su Mengyan did not reply at first, but picked up the silver needle that was placed alone and showed it to the people present.
"This, is this poisoned?"
It was clearly seen that the tip of the needle that had just entered the old man's body was visibly black.
"Yes, I was bitten by a poisonous insect!"
As he spoke, he lifted the hair on the back of the old man's neck and pointed it out to everyone.
A very inconspicuous red dot was exposed in front of everyone. Even if it was discovered at the beginning, it would probably be regarded as a mosquito bite, and there would be no signs of poisoning at all.
"This is a poisonous insect from Country R. Only the nobles of the Chinese class are qualified to breed it!"
Putting away the silver needle stained with poison again, Su Mengyan continued to explain the origin of the poison to everyone.
But when he just mentioned Country R, Harrison clearly felt him tremble uncontrollably.
Without exposing the truth, Su Mengyan continued to talk about his understanding.
"This poisonous insect is called the 'Drinking Killer'. Once it enters a person's body, it will continuously erode the person's blood without the person noticing. The blood is completely contaminated and circulates to every organ. The person will then fall into a deep coma. Even with the use of various advanced instruments, the results will all be due to organ failure."
After hearing the explanation, Su Shihao and Harrison also understood why all the doctors' diagnoses were so consistent during this period.
"Plus, Mr. Thorne is now old, and organ failure, a common illness, will make you feel that it is natural."
"If it weren't for the resistance of the old man's body to the poisonous insects, he would have fainted the moment he was bitten, and his blood would not have circulated so quickly, and the poison would not have spread throughout his body. The consequences would have been disastrous now."
After packing up all the things, Su Mengyan walked over to the two young men.
"I have suppressed the poisonous insect, and the toxin will not spread further. But it will still take a few days to completely eliminate the toxin in the body!"
As soon as these words came out, Harrison's face looked a little ugly. Looking at his grandfather on the bed, the worry in his heart made him even more uneasy.
"Don't worry, Mr. Thorne will be fine!"
Su Shihao noticed the wrong mood immediately and comforted her softly.
"That Wu Yue has been sent to the imperial capital by you. The situation here is relatively safe now, but there must be someone behind her. This matter cannot be delayed!"
"Qing'er is right! Harrison, you must shoulder this responsibility now. If I remember correctly, your parents' affairs are also closely related to Country R!"
Li Jinchen's words came out immediately, without giving the two teenagers any chance to think.
Harrison looked at the man with an expression of disbelief.
He was not familiar with Li Jinchen, he only knew that he was Su Mengyan's fiancé. But when they met for the first time in the villa, he felt the fascinating aura of the man and guessed that he was not an ordinary person.
But when he heard the comments about his parents' murder, he still found it hard to believe.
After all, besides him, only his grandfather knew about this.
After thinking for a moment, whether out of trust in Su Shihao or because he simply had no other choice, Harrison looked up and glanced around, then nodded and agreed to their proposal.
