The richest man's parents were kidnapped, and his adorable son captivated the entire family.
Chapter 261 In Search of the Reason
Xie Beiling had been observing her out of the corner of his eye, and his gaze followed hers to her phone, a chill running through him.
At such a young age, he already possesses such deep cunning? He even understands the need to use himself to set up a scheme?
Xie Shiyu turned on the tap in front of him and rinsed his hands. After turning off the tap, he turned around and grabbed some toilet paper from the table.
"Why is the knife here?" Xie Beiling threw the wet crumpled paper into the trash can, picked up the knife handle that was half sticking out, and put it back in the kitchen cabinet.
Sweetie's feelings right now are beyond words.
Her plans were once again interrupted by Xie Beiling's meddling.
"Where is everyone? Why is no one here?" Gu Jingsi's voice came through.
Once there are too many people, he will have no chance at all.
Sweetie ignored the juice in the juicer, and came out of the kitchen with a long face and an unhappy expression.
When Gu Shi saw Tian Tian, he immediately noticed her unhappiness.
"not happy?"
"Ah."
Sweetie doesn't deny it either.
She wished she could fabricate charges against Xie Beiling for everything he had done and have them kick him out of the Gu residence.
Gu Shiyu watched Xie Beiling come out of the kitchen and immediately looked at him with suspicion.
"because of him?"
Sweetie turned around and looked at Xie Beiling, who was walking out with a big smile, and her expression turned even worse.
He didn't give a direct answer, but his expression conveyed the message.
Xie Shiyu pulled Tian Tian's body to the other side, as if he were guarding against Xie Beiling.
This brat!
Xie Beiling was dissatisfied with Gu Shiyu's actions, but he did not express it.
He sat back down in the chair he had pulled out and said, "There's some juice that Sweetie made for everyone in the kitchen."
"Did you do all of this yourself?" Ruolan asked.
Sweetie nodded, then said with a wronged expression, "I wanted to ask Uncle Xie for help, but he said he didn't know how either."
Juicers are heavy and require a power source. Add to that the need to cut the fruit into small pieces, and every step carries a hidden danger.
Ruolan instantly felt dissatisfied with Xie Beiling.
Although Xie Yumin didn't like Tiantian, after hearing these words, she felt that Xie Beiling's actions were somewhat wrong.
Xie Beiling, on the other hand, who was being attacked, looked at Tian Tian with an amused expression.
Complain?
It seems he's now on her blacklist.
But for Mengmeng's sake, what does it matter if she's on the blacklist? He still has to find out her true colors.
Xie Beiling picked up his chopsticks and asked Gu Yinshen, "Can we start eating now?"
"Well, now that everyone's here, let's start eating." After Gu Yinshen finished speaking, Xie Beiling put the chopsticks he had picked up back on the table.
"Everyone's here? Something doesn't seem right."
Gu Yinshen's gaze swept around the dining table, but he didn't find anything amiss.
"Mengmeng isn't back yet," Xie Beiling explained, pretending to be loud. "You guys aren't even waiting for her to come home for dinner?"
"Leave some for her later." Gu Yinshen treated it like a kitten or puppy, not caring whether the food was good after being heated a second time, nor whether Mengmeng would have any problems if she didn't come back so late.
The previous statements were speculation, but Xie Beiling is now certain that everyone in the Gu family has been poisoned by the Gu curse. And the one who cast the curse is Tian Tian, the beneficiary.
"Let's get started!" Gu Yinshen said once again.
Sweetie picked up her chopsticks, looking sullen.
There's no chance left now, so we have to abandon the plan to break through Xie Beiling's defenses. After all, he's an outsider and won't be at the Gu family's house every day.
Consider it saving one dose of medicine so that it can be used on the person who needs it most.
After they started eating, the restaurant fell silent. Seeing that Tian Tian was no longer causing trouble, Xie Beiling didn't have a suitable opportunity to say anything more cryptic.
Upstairs, Xiaobai sighed sullenly with a long face.
Like a leopard, but with an added touch of worry.
"Xiaobai, is Mengmeng really not coming back?"
"What are you talking about!"
Little White glared at the leopard, retorting impatiently.
But even now, it still can't be sure where Mengmeng is or whether she's in danger.
"What's wrong with them? Why don't they like Mengmeng anymore?" Leopard complained, muttering to himself.
Xiaobai and Xiaohei spent the afternoon searching for the answer, but they couldn't find it.
"If Mengmeng doesn't come back tonight, go to the school gate tomorrow and wait to see if you can find her at school," Xiaobai told her.
Leopard looked at itself, "I can't go."
It will definitely be arrested as soon as it appears in the public eye.
Little White glanced at it and said disdainfully, "I never intended to bring you along."
Given its size, it wouldn't be of any help, and would most likely just cause trouble.
The door was always ajar, and Xiao Hei nimbly slipped through the crack into the room.
"How did you get here?" Leopard asked.
“I think I’ve figured out the reason,” Xiao Hei said.
Xiao Bai immediately perked up and asked, "Really?"
Xiao Hei nodded, "But I can't be sure if it's right or not."
"You speak first."
"The change only happened after the meal, and Sweetie was alone in the kitchen that morning."
"You mean she secretly put something in her food this morning?"
Xiao Hei nodded.
There is no other accurate answer besides this possibility.
"When did you find out?"
"Just now."
Xiao Bai is now eager for the Gu family to return to their original state so that they will go out and find Mengmeng.
It stood up nimbly and ordered, "We'll split up now. Leopard, you go down and block the way to the second floor on the stairs, and also observe what they're doing downstairs. Blackie and I will sneak into her room and see if there's anything improper there."
The arrangement was very reasonable, and Xiao Hei and Hua Baobao nodded in agreement.
After leaving the room, the three split into two small teams.
Despite their small size, Xiao Hei and Xiao Bai moved with surprising agility. They easily entered Tian Tian's room in no time.
The layout inside is similar to Mengmeng's room, but it's not as comfortable as Mengmeng's room.
Little White leaped and landed on Sweetie's bed. It used its paws to move the pillow aside, searching underneath for any hidden secrets.
Xiao Hei opened the wardrobe, crawled inside, and sniffed the rows of clothes.
After searching through everything, they found nothing, but they did find the magical flower and herb that Mengmeng had given her before in the bedside table.
Whether it's due to the time of day or because Mengmeng isn't feeling well, the divine flowers and herbs are starting to wilt.
"Put it back, lest it get noticed later," Xiao Hei reminded him.
The item remained clutched in her paws; Little White wanted to destroy it outright. After all, someone as wicked as her didn't deserve to possess something so valuable.
