The richest man's parents were kidnapped, and his adorable son captivated the entire family.

When Ruolan heard this, she was immediately shocked, as if a muffled thunderclap had suddenly exploded in her chest.

"But...but she didn't take any medication today." She blurted out, her eyes wide open, and half of the color drained from her face.

As soon as she finished speaking, she suddenly froze, because she remembered the glass of milk from last night.

In fact, she had been drugging Mengmeng's milk all along in order to keep Mengmeng, but Mengmeng was very healthy and had never had any problems.

She was also a little anxious about this and wanted to get better medication, but she couldn't find it in a short time, so she hadn't switched to other medications.

Until last night, Xie Yumin suddenly appeared in front of her and said in a hurried tone that there were strange noises coming from the bathroom, like mice moving.

Without thinking much about it, she hurriedly put the milk aside and went to check.

But when she returned, Xie Yumin was already standing there waiting for her, calmly saying that they should go deliver the milk together. So she naturally picked up the glass of milk—which had been unattended—and took it into Mengmeng's room.

Then Mengmeng had an allergic reaction.

The rash, itching, and pain all came without warning, yet erupted precisely that very night.

Looking back now, this series of coincidences seems incredibly jarring.

Ruolan stood in the hospital corridor, her fingers clenching tightly, the tips turning slightly white from the force.

She wasn't one to easily doubt others. But at this moment, a thought coiled around her like a venomous snake, almost suffocating her—could it be her?

Could it be that Xie Yumin secretly put drugs in the milk during the few minutes she was away?

So, was it Xie Yumin's medication that caused Mengmeng's allergic reaction, or was there a conflict between their medications that caused Mengmeng's allergic reaction?

For a moment, she felt confused and flustered.

Her first thought was that she absolutely couldn't let Mengmeng know that she had drugged her, otherwise her relationship with Mengmeng would be over!

Therefore, no matter what, the blame can only be placed on Xie Yumin!

The next morning, sunlight streamed in through the gaps in the curtains, falling on the pristine white sheets in the hospital room.

Mengmeng gently opened her eyes, her gaze still somewhat dazed. She paused, staring blankly at the ceiling, before suddenly remembering what had happened the night before.

So she suddenly looked down, lifted the blanket, and looked at her arms, neck, and legs.

The rash has completely disappeared, and my skin has returned to normal, without even the slightest itching.

Her face lit up, her eyes widened, and just as she was about to speak, she heard the sound of the ward door being pushed open.

Ruolan walked in bathed in the morning light, her face still showing deep fatigue, but her eyes lit up immediately when she saw Mengmeng wake up.

"Mengmeng!" She hurried to the bedside, bent down anxiously, and gently took her hand. "How are you feeling? Is there anything else that's bothering you? Should I call the doctor to come and take a look?"

Seeing how nervous she was, Mengmeng quickly shook her head and whispered to comfort her, "Mom, I'm okay, really."

She blinked, raised her arm and waved it, "Look, the rash is all gone! I feel completely healed, and it doesn't hurt at all!"

Ruolan breathed a slight sigh of relief, but her worries hadn't completely dissipated. She hesitated for a moment, then finally took her hand and said softly, "Although you seem fine now, just to be on the safe side, let's stay in the hospital for observation for another two days. Drug allergies are no small matter, and Mom is worried about long-term effects."

Mengmeng was taken aback, her mouth slightly agape, then she looked up in confusion: "A drug allergy?"

She tilted her head and thought seriously for a moment, "But I definitely didn't take any medicine yesterday?"

Ruolan suddenly remembered her elaborate scheme to frame Mengmeng yesterday, and quickly gripped Mengmeng's little hand tightly. She looked at her seriously and asked in an unprecedentedly earnest tone, "Are you sure? When you were with Miss Xie, did she give you anything to eat? Or... any medicine?"

Mengmeng was startled by her expression. She thought about it carefully for a moment, then shook her head firmly: "No. Auntie has never given me any medicine, nor has she made me eat anything strange."

Ruolan's face darkened instantly upon hearing this.

“In that case,” she said slowly, her voice frighteningly calm, “then I’m afraid the problem lies with that glass of milk.”

Mengmeng was taken aback, her little face showing confusion and surprise: "Milk? But that's what you prepared, Mommy..."

“It was prepared by Mom,” Ruolan nodded, but her eyes gradually became complicated. “But… just as I was about to take the milk to you, Miss Xie suddenly appeared and said there was a mouse in the bathroom. I was worried, so I went to check it out.”

She spoke slowly, her gaze fixed on the distance, as if still recalling that night, "When I came back, she was still standing there. Then we went to your room together and gave you the milk..."

Before she could finish speaking, Mengmeng's eyes widened in shock.

She also remembered the brand of the milk, which she had always drunk and had never had any problems with.

Last night was the only time something unusual happened.

The only variable is Xie Yumin.

Her face turned pale instantly, her eyes filled with disbelief, terror, and sorrow. Her lips trembled slightly as she whispered, "But... how could this happen? Auntie... she always liked me, didn't she? Why would she do this?"

Her voice was trembling with sobs, barely audible, yet filled with heart-wrenching grievances.

"Mom...Does Auntie hate me?...Why did she hurt me?" She raised her tearful little face and looked at Ruolan, as if desperately seeking an explanation.

Ruolan was overjoyed. It was too high! Mengmeng had already started to dislike Xie Yumin!

But he didn't show it on his face. He just quickly pulled Mengmeng into his arms, holding her tightly with both hands, "No...no, Mengmeng..."

"Miss Xie...she might just be..."

He stopped halfway through his sentence because he had no intention of exonerating Xie Yumin. Only by making Mengmeng hate Xie Yumin to the core could he completely get rid of the blame this time.

However, looking at Mengmeng who was crying all the time, she felt a little guilty and regretful.

If I had known, I shouldn't have told her all that.

After all, Xie Yumin held a certain place in Mengmeng's heart. Now that he mistakenly believed that his illness was caused by Xie Yumin's drugging, he would naturally feel very sad.

Mengmeng nestled in Ruolan's arms and cried for a while before finally stopping sobbing under Ruolan's comforting care.

She looked up, her eyes red-rimmed, biting her lip, her serious face heartbreaking.
