"Otherwise, knowing too much can lead to a very tragic end."

After saying this, Zhao Xiang walked into the Zhao family compound without turning her head.

Mrs. Zhao saw that "Zhao Xiang" had returned so late and waited on the sofa.

Seeing "Zhao Xiang" enter the house with a stern expression, Madam Zhao looked anxious and walked towards "Zhao Xiang".

"Xiang'er, why are you so late? What do these people mean by this?"

The security personnel who were originally stationed at the Zhao family's residence have begun packing up and leaving.

Zhao Xiang watched all of this unfold, and it was pretty much as she had expected.

After these people left, the Zhao family's side became an empty shell.

Soon, the security personnel packed up their things, and as they were leaving, a man in a suit and black walked up to "Zhao Xiang".

He placed a bottle of medicine in front of "Zhao Xiang," his face devoid of any emotion.

"Miss, please drink this medicine, sir."

Zhao Xiang looked at the medicine in front of her without any change in expression. A faint smile appeared on her lips as she reached out and took the medicine into her hand.

When Madam Zhao saw the medicine in "Zhao Xiang's" hand, her expression changed slightly. She reached out and grabbed the medicine from "Zhao Xiang's" hand, her expression showing some fear.

"Xiang'er, what's going on with these people? Weren't they with you?"

These people have always been protecting Zhao Xiang, and Madam Zhao knows this.

She also witnessed firsthand that before Old Master Zhao lost his ability to speak, he was given such drugs by these people.

At this moment, how could Madam Zhao bear to see her daughter take such medicine?

"Xiang'er, what happened? Tell your mother."

Mrs. Zhao has already lost one daughter, and now she doesn't want to lose another one.

Zhao Xiang's expression was calm as she looked at the medicine that she had taken from Madam Zhao, her tone exceptionally composed.

"Haven't you always hoped that I would stop doing anything to harm the Zhao family? As long as I drink this medicine, I can stay by your side obediently, never have to leave you again, and never have to do anything to harm the Zhao family. Isn't that what you wanted?"

Madam Zhao hesitated upon hearing Zhao Xiang's words.

Just as she hesitated, "Zhao Xiang" snatched the medicine from Madam Zhao's hand and swallowed it in one gulp.

Seeing Zhao Xiang's decisiveness, Madam Zhao tried to snatch the item from Zhao Xiang's hand, but it was too late.

"Xiang'er, Xiang'er."

Madam Zhao wept, her vision quickly blurred by tears.

Seeing that "Zhao Xiang" voluntarily took the medicine, the man in black did not make things difficult for "Zhao Xiang".

Before leaving, he left a letter on Zhao Xiang's desk.

"This is from the master."

After the man in black finished speaking, he left with all the security personnel.

Overnight, the once bustling Zhao family home suddenly became deserted.

Although these security personnel didn't have much of a presence at the Zhao family's residence, the Zhao family quickly fell into a state of desolation after so many people left.

After everyone had left, Zhao Xiang picked up the envelope on the table and opened it.

There is a small syringe of medicine inside.

When Zhao Xiang saw the medicine, her expression remained completely unchanged.

Just moments ago, Madam Zhao was sobbing uncontrollably, but upon seeing the medicine inside the envelope, her expression changed drastically. Grabbing "Zhao Xiang's" hand, she asked urgently.

"Is this the antidote? Xiang'er, is this the antidote?"

Zhao Xiang looked at the medicine in front of her, her eyes showing no emotion whatsoever.

Although she still doesn't know who her superior is, and has never met him, she knows that the man's greatest pleasure is manipulating people's hearts.

He likes to give people a glimmer of hope when they have already given up hope.

They also like to deliver a heavy blow when the other party still feels there is a glimmer of hope.

That man just loves to wield power.

This medicine was clearly given to her out of pity by that man.

Zhao Xiang calmly looked at the medicine in front of her, and finally took it and walked into Old Master Zhao's ward.

When Madam Zhao saw "Zhao Xiang" walking towards Old Master Zhao's room, her expression suddenly changed, and she immediately reached out to stop "Zhao Xiang".

"Xiang'er, what exactly do you want to do? That person is your grandfather."

When Zhao Xiang heard Madam Zhao's words, a cold glint flashed in her eyes.

Now, Madam Zhao probably thinks she will do something to harm the person inside.

She has already taken revenge on the Zhao family, and the Zhao family is now powerless to reverse the situation.

She doesn't need to take any further action to retaliate against the Zhao family.

Even though these people cruelly abandoned her back then, in her heart they are still her family.

In this world, there are only a few people who share the same blood as her.

Zhao Xiang shook off Madam Zhao's hand, stepped into Old Master Zhao's room, and closed the door.

No matter how much Madam Zhao knocked on the door, "Zhao Xiang" would take the injection and walk to Old Master Zhao's side without hesitation.

Old Master Zhao, who was lying in bed, was awakened by the cries of Madam Zhao outside the door, and weakly opened his eyes.

He saw "Zhao Xiang" walking towards him with the injection, a hint of contempt flashing across her face before she closed her eyes, looking as if she were ready to die.

Zhao Xiang, holding the injection, walked to Old Master Zhao's side.

Just moments ago, Old Master Zhao had calmly closed his eyes, but suddenly opened them and grabbed "Zhao Xiang" by the neck.

As they left, those people untied the rope that had been binding Old Master Zhao.

Zhao Xiang was grabbed by the neck by Old Master Zhao. Without saying a word, she suddenly raised the needle in her hand and stabbed it into Old Master Zhao's neck.

Seeing the injection completely injected into Old Master Zhao's body, "Zhao Xiang" also felt that her breathing was very difficult.

Old Master Zhao had been lying in bed for so long and was very weak, so even though he grabbed "Zhao Xiang" by the neck, he didn't cause "Zhao Xiang" much harm.

Zhao Xiang felt a wave of dizziness, clearly the effects of the medication she had just drunk. Her legs gave way, and she collapsed to the ground.

Madam Zhao found the spare key to Old Master Zhao's room upstairs. When she opened the door from the outside, she saw Old Master Zhao lying weakly on the bed, while "Zhao Xiang" had already collapsed on the floor.

Mrs. Zhao looked very surprised and quickly ran over.

"Xiang'er, Xiang'er? How are you? Xiang'er..."

Madam Zhao looked anxious, glanced at "Zhao Xiang", then got up and went over to help Old Master Zhao.

The injection that "Zhao Xiang" had left in Old Master Zhao's neck was still stuck there.

"Dad, I'll go get a doctor right now. Hang in there for a bit."
