He was hacked to death! Reborn and married to the Grand Secretary, his family wept with regret.

Luo Qingfan spoke softly, feeling somewhat guilty because she was the one who caused the trouble and had also made the old lady and Li En suffer.

She carefully observed Li Huai Ren's expression, bit her lip, and apologized, "This is all my fault, I'm so sorry!"

"How are the old lady and En'er? It's all my fault. I'll go in and apologize to them right away!"

As Luo Qingfan spoke, her eyes were already brimming with tears, but she stubbornly held them back from falling.

She pursed her lips, her eyes resolute: "Brother Huai Ren, this incident was due to my lack of consideration. I will definitely take responsibility for what I should bear!"

Luo Qingfan spoke with heartfelt sincerity, and looked at Li Huai Ren with intense gaze.

Li Huai-ren took a deep breath. At first, when things went wrong, he did feel a little resentful, but as soon as he saw Luo Qing-fan's responsible and capable demeanor, Li Huai-ren felt that he had been petty.

A person as extraordinary as Qingfan must have gone through a lot of hardships before achieving success.

Although the milk tea incident went wrong, he still witnessed Qingfan's abilities in the process.

Her ability to get most of the city to drink her milk tea overnight is something that no one else can match.

Li Huai-ren pulled Luo Qing-fan's hand and held it tightly in his own palm.

What are you thinking about now?

Li Huai-ren's eyes were gentle, and his tone was so soft it could melt your heart.

"Although things went wrong, I'm willing to share the burden with you!"

"Qingfan, you deserve it!"

Li Huai-ren brought Luo Qing-fan's hand to his lips, but did not kiss it. Instead, he looked up at her.

"Qingfan, although we failed this time, I know you are destined for greatness. You only need one more chance to soar to the sky!"

Hearing Li Huai-ren's affirmation of her, Luo Qingfan's eyes shone even brighter.

A radiant glow rose on her forehead, and a composed smile graced her lips.

"But, Madam and En'er!"

"Don't worry, they know it was unintentional on your part, so they didn't blame you. Besides, Grandmother and En'er are getting better now, so there's no need to worry."

Luo Qingfan was finally relieved. As long as the old lady and Li En were stable, her carefully planned scheme to marry into the Zhongyong Marquis's mansion and become the mistress of the house would not have gone wrong.

Slightly concealing her emotions, Luo Qingfan's expression relaxed a bit: "Brother Huai Ren, I have something to tell you!"

Li Huai-ren's eyes flashed, his expression turning slightly serious: "Qing-fan, I also have something to tell you!"

The two looked at each other, their emotions flowing between them.

"You speak first!"

They politely declined each other's offer, their eyes revealing deeper meaning. Li Huai-ren pulled Luo Qing-fan to the pot where An Wu-yang had boiled water earlier, pointing to the pot of water boiled with weeds.

"Qingfan, we're saved!"

"This pot of water is the cure for that strange disease!"

Li Huai Ren, unharmed, boiled a pot of water and explained the whole story to the old lady and Li En.

With deep affection, he suggested to Luo Qingfan, "In my opinion, let's boil a pot of water according to An Wuyang's method and give it to those people with strange illnesses to drink. If they recover, we won't have to run away anymore!"

After Li Huai-ren finished speaking, a hint of relief appeared on his face.

Upon hearing this, Luo Qingfan's eyes flickered slightly.

"Is this water really that magical?"

Luo Qingfan scooped up a bowlful, smelled it, and then disgustedly poured it back into the pot.

He looked at Li Huai-ren again, his brows furrowed with seriousness: "In my opinion, this matter is probably not so simple."

“Brother Huai Ren, look, this pot of boiled grass is just some common weeds that can be found everywhere.”

"If Sister An were knowledgeable in medicine, she would know that the study of herbs is extremely profound, and weeds could never cure diseases. So what is truly effective must be the dregs at the bottom of the pot!"

Luo Qingfan scooped out the soil that An Wuyang had been boiling with the ground ivy, which An Wuyang was unwilling to clean.

"These dregs are the key!"

"Brother Huai Ren, it seems that Sister An really does have a prescription to cure this strange illness, but she hates me so much that she doesn't want me to know what the prescription is, so she's using some weeds to cover it up!"

Li Huai-ren clenched his fists instantly.

"An Wuyang, that jealous woman!"

"She actually dared to be so ruthless, and for the sake of that shameful jealousy in her heart, she mixed herbs into the medicine for Grandmother and En'er!"

"Qingfan, thank goodness you discovered the secret, otherwise I would still be completely in the dark!"

Li Huai-ren was filled with hatred. He gritted his teeth and continued to say hatefully, "This time I will never let her go again!"

Luo Qingfan's eyes flickered slightly, and after Li Huai Ren noticed her emotions, she continued to exchange information with him: "Brother Huai Ren, I also have something to discuss with you. I just heard that someone has started to release medicine at the entrance of the City Lord's Mansion!"

"Guess who put the poison in there?"

Li Huai-ren raised an eyebrow: "Could it be that this matter has alarmed the city lord?"

"no***!"

Li Huai Ren's heart suddenly trembled. *** had the appearance of a celestial being, a dragon among men, and was deeply favored by the late emperor.

Before that catastrophe, every man in the capital considered it an honor to catch a glimpse of the beautiful woman.

It was actually ***?

If he could befriend *** this time, even if it was just by establishing contact with her servants, the benefits to him after returning to the capital would be immeasurable.

Li Huai-ren's throat throbbed with pain, and he swallowed unconsciously.
