Perhaps his silence made her feel a little uneasy, and she quickly asked in a low voice: "Husband, what's wrong with you? Why are you looking at me like that? It's scary!"

Suspicion flashed across Lin Ran's eyes, and he instantly changed into a gentle expression. He replied in a hoarse voice: "I won't forget to drink this glass of wine. I'll drink it while I take a bath later!"

After saying that, without even looking at her expression, he hurriedly took the wine glass and left.

She looked at his back, a hint of panic flashing across her face.

She couldn't help but frown. Her master was right. Lin Ran was very suspicious. She had to use more tricks to gain his trust.

While he is taking a bath, kill the old man first.

She immediately stood up, took out a packet of medicine powder and put it into the still steaming chicken soup.

She packed the food in a lunch box and then walked towards the main courtyard where Doctor Lin lived.

Outside was the housekeeper Lin Qing, who was guarding. He asked respectfully, "Madam, why are you here so late?"

Sang Qiutang said softly, "I made this chicken soup myself and wanted to give a bowl to my father. He's still awake, right?"

The housekeeper replied, "I'm not asleep yet. Madam, just give me the chicken soup!"

Sang Qiutang interrupted without hesitation, "When I came here just now, my husband repeatedly told me to watch my father drink the chicken soup. He also said that when he's busy, he doesn't care about his own health, and he makes us, the younger generation, worry for nothing!"

Lin Qing scratched his head: "Well, I'll go in first and inform the governor, and then invite the young lady in!"

Sang Qiutang urged: "Then go quickly!"

A moment later, Lin Qing came back and brought her in.

Doctor Lin was preparing medicine when he heard Sang Qiutang's footsteps. He immediately said lovingly, "Why are you bringing me chicken soup so late at night? Please go back and forth again. That brat Lin Ran, don't you dare stop me!"

Sang Qiutang took the chicken soup out of the food box and said, "Father, try Qiutang's cooking. Although it's not as good as the ones made in the palace's imperial kitchen, this is a gift from your daughter-in-law!"

Doctor Lin immediately beamed: "Yes, since it is my daughter-in-law's gift, I am so lucky!"

Just as he was about to pick it up, he heard hurried footsteps outside.

He immediately put down the bowl of soup and asked with a puzzled look, "Lin Qing, go out and see who would come so late?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Sang Qiutang suddenly became anxious.

I was about to drink it, why did someone suddenly come?

Just when she was feeling uneasy, Lin Qing had already brought in Lin Yiwan and Zhan Yan.

Doctor Lin couldn't help but say with delight, "What a coincidence you two came. Qiu Tang just brought me chicken soup. You must have followed the smell, right?"

Lin Yiwan's heart skipped a beat: "Chicken soup made by Qiu Tang?"

Sang Qiutang answered cautiously, "Yes, this is the chicken soup I made for my father. If I had known you were coming, I would have brought a few more bowls!"

Doctor Lin immediately said, "There should be more in the kitchenette, right? Just send someone over to get some more!"

Sang Qiutang shook his head awkwardly: "No more, only this bowl is left. Father, this is a gift from your daughter-in-law to you as a token of filial piety!"

Before Doctor Lin could say anything, Lin Yiwan said, "This chicken soup smells so good! If you can't drink it, you can smell it!"

She reached out and picked up the bowl of soup, put it to her nose and sniffed it hard.

Doctor Lin couldn't help but laugh: "Look at her, she's like a greedy little cat. Qiu Tang, since she's pregnant, why don't you give her this bowl of chicken soup?"

Sang Qiutang clenched her fingers hidden in her sleeves. After a moment's silence, she spoke, "Okay, since Wanwan likes it, let her drink it first!"

Lin Yiwan not only didn't drink it, but placed the bowl of soup in front of her: "Qiu Tang, have you forgotten? I never like chicken soup!"

Sang Qiutang's eyes flashed with panic, and she subconsciously changed her tone: "Ah? I really forgot. Since you don't like it, then give it back to father!"

Lin Yiwan's pretty face instantly turned cold, and she said in a deep voice: "No, I like chicken soup, I don't have any dietary restrictions at all, so, you are not Qiu Tang at all!"

The woman's expression suddenly changed. She widened her eyes in shock, and her pupils turned red in an instant.

She asked aggrievedly, "Wanwan, what do you mean? Why are you suddenly saying such strange things? If I'm not Qiu Tang, who else could I be?"

Lin Yiwan sarcastically asked, "How should I know who you are?"

The woman immediately cried to Doctor Lin, "Father, you have to make the decision for me. Wanwan has wronged me and is suspicious of me. How can I stay in the Lin family?"

Doctor Lin frowned and said, "Wanwan, you doubt her identity. Do you have any evidence?"

Lin Yiwan nodded, her eyes blazing as she stared at the woman. "Before Qiu Tang went to the charity hall, she once visited me at the Prince Li's mansion. She did something to me. Do you know what it was?"

The woman's face suddenly turned cold and ugly. How could she know what it was?

However, in order not to reveal her identity, she had no choice but to make up a story. Maybe she would guess it right by accident?

She quickly responded, "I hugged you!"

Lin Yiwan sneered, "No, she didn't hug me at all. Instead, she reached out and touched my belly, saying she wanted to share in the good fortune. She wanted to get pregnant with my uncle's child as soon as possible!"

The woman was stunned at first, then turned around and ran away without saying a word.

Her speed was so fast that Zhan Yan didn't even have time to react.

However, she failed to escape successfully, but was kicked to the ground by Lin Ran who arrived in time.

She opened her mouth and spat out a trace of black blood, and her face, which looked very similar to Sang Qiutang, was full of anger and resentment.

She gritted her teeth and asked, "Lin Ran, do you doubt my identity as much as they do? I was kidnapped and drugged, so I can't remember what happened for a while. The guards who protected me can't remember either. Why don't you say they are fakes, but instead make trouble for me?"

Lin Ran said coldly, "Since you insist you're innocent, then drink the bowl of chicken soup you brought to my father. If you dare to drink it, not only will I believe you, but I'll also make Wanwan apologize to you!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Yiwan had already brought out the chicken soup.

Lin Ran took it from her and slowly walked to the front of the woman.

He stared down at her condescendingly: "Do you dare to drink?"

The woman's eyes flickered, hatred surging in them.

At this time, Lin Yiwan said contemptuously: "Uncle, you shouldn't have any hope for her. She definitely doesn't dare to drink it because the chicken soup she made is poisoned with a deadly poison that can cause dreams to end. There is no antidote for this poison. Anyone who drinks it will die in their dreams without knowing it!"

The woman's face was filled with shock. She had never expected that Lin Yiwan could guess it so easily.

This poison powder is colorless and odorless, how can she tell it apart?

Seeing her constantly flickering expression, Lin Ran's eyes were filled with murderous intent.
