My White and Rich Beautiful CEO Wife-Chapter 774: Zhou Nannan Poisoned

"To poison the current Miss of the Qin Family with potent toxins, forcing Qin Zhengdong to leave Capital City. Then, when that boy comes knocking, An Xuanming will be able to deal with him!"

The voice on the phone was chillingly cold.

"Alright, I understand!"

"Beep... beep..."

Qing Yi, seeing that the caller had already hung up, fell silent for a moment before sending Zhou Nannan a message, "Come over."

Okay.

Zhou Nannan sent a reply.

Within a few minutes, she pushed open Qing Yi’s door and walked in with a face full of fawning, asking, "Sister Qing Yi, you look a bit pale. Are you feeling unwell?"

"It’s nothing. Drink this!"

Qing Yi, expressionless, pointed to the tea table where a bowl of dark, murky potion awaited, which she had just prepared.

"This... Sister Qing Yi, I’m not thirsty!"

Zhou Nannan wasn’t foolish; she could guess from Qing Yi’s expression that something must have gone wrong.

Plus, with Qin Yu and his sister constantly in Capital City, it was very likely that her masquerading as the Miss of the Qin Family was about to be exposed.

Therefore, Qing Yi wanted to kill her to silence her. freeweɓnovēl.coɱ

"You must drink it, whether you want to or not!"

Qing Yi’s voice was cold, tinged with impatience.

"Thump!"

"Sister Qing Yi!"

Startled, Zhou Nannan knelt before Qing Yi, pleading, "Please spare me, I will leave Capital City right away. As long as they can’t find me, nobody will know about your involvement!"

"Hmph, you’ve been with the Qin Family for so long, yet you’re still so cowardly. Get up! What would people think if they saw you like this?"

After shooting Zhou Nannan a glare, Qing Yi spoke icily, "This is ’Acacia Water,’ a poison. If rescued in time, it won’t be lethal; you’ll just vomit some blood. If you refuse to drink, Qin Yu will soon come in person. If he exposes you, it won’t be as simple as just vomiting blood. You should know the methods of a great family.

It’s your choice whether to drink it or not. Regardless, the moment Qin Yu shows up, I will definitely kill you quietly and instantly!"

"I..."

Zhou Nannan bit her lower lip, weighing the pros and cons in her mind. Drinking the poison now offered a glimmer of hope for survival. But if she waited for Qin Yu to come, she’d certainly be doomed.

"Alright, Sister Qing Yi, I’ll drink it!"

Zhou Nannan knew she had no other choice. She picked up the bowl of murky potion, pinched her nose, and downed it in one gulp.

If Qing Yi wanted to harm her, she had plenty of ways to force the poison down her throat without needing to waste so many words.

"Go to the Family Head and say you’re not feeling well. With Uncle An there, you won’t die so easily!"

Qing Yi waved her arm, picked up the empty bowl, and walked into the bathroom, patiently starting to clean it.

Very soon.

In the Qin Family’s main hall.

Qin Zhengdong usually came home to rest at noon. He was sitting on the sofa, reading the newspaper.

Upon hearing footsteps, a gentle smile appeared on his face, "Nannan, you didn’t go shopping today?"

"Dad, I didn’t want to go shopping. I’m feeling a bit dizzy. Where is Uncle An? I want him to check on me!"

Zhou Nannan settled next to Qin Zhengdong, holding her forehead as she spoke.

Back then, when Qin Zhengdong had left his daughter in Phoenix Village, she was just an infant and nameless. Hence, after Zhou Nannan came to the Qin Family, she kept her original name but adopted the Qin surname to become Qin Nannan.

"Oh? Quick, call for Uncle An!"

Qin Zhengdong immediately set down his newspaper and instructed the guard at the door.

"Yes..."

The guard hurried out at once.

"Dad... I feel terrible..."

As the effects of the poison began to take hold, Zhou Nannan’s eyes became somewhat vacant, and blood slowly trickled from the corners of her mouth.

"Ah... Nannan, don’t scare your dad like this!"

Qin Zhengdong’s heart was filled with guilt for this daughter, who had been raised outside his immediate care. Having finally found her, he naturally showered her with extra affection.

Seeing Zhou Nannan in what seemed like a grave condition, he panicked immediately, supporting her body. Any trace of the demeanor of a great family’s head was gone, replaced completely by the image of a loving father worried for his daughter.

"Pfft...."

Zhou Nannan’s consciousness began to blur, and she could no longer hear what Qin Zhengdong was saying. She just clutched tightly at his clothes, instinctively pleading, "Dad, I don’t want to die, save me...."

"Nannan, hang in there, Master An.... Master An...."

Qin Zhengdong was so anxious he was close to tears, holding Zhou Nannan tightly and shouting out to the courtyard.

"Master, Master An has arrived!"

Accompanied by the guards who jogged all the way, An Xuanming also walked into the hall breathlessly. After glancing at Zhou Nannan in Qin Zhengdong’s arms, he immediately frowned, "The young miss has been poisoned by a potent toxin!"

"Ah? Who would dare harm my daughter, Qin Zhengdong!"

Qin Zhengdong couldn’t help but roar with anger.

"Family Head, please calm down!"

After speaking, An Xuanming didn’t dare to delay any further, hurriedly taking out a detoxifying pill from his bosom and inserting it into Zhou Nannan’s mouth.

"Master An, at any cost, you must save my daughter!"

Qin Zhengdong implored An Xuanming intently.

"Family Head, if the young miss does not improve within one minute, the only option is for you to take her to the Shennong Sect yourself. Only in the hands of our sect leader, do we have the Hao Jade Pill that can neutralize any potent poison under the heavens!"

An Xuanming said with a grave voice.

In fact, even he didn’t realize that he had unknowingly become a pawn in someone else’s hands, using his mouth to lure Qin Zhengdong away from the Capital City. With the head of the Qin Family away, even if Qin Yu came knocking with his sister, it would be futile.

"Good, good... Prepare the carriage immediately!"

Upon hearing An Xuanming’s words, Qin Zhengdong’s heart was filled with hope once more as he shouted orders to the guards at the door.

"Nannan... don’t worry, your dad will definitely not let anything happen to you!"

Qin Zhengdong said with pain and a hoarse voice, holding Zhou Nannan whose eyes were tightly closed.

"Cough cough... pfft...."

Zhou Nannan seemed to show some improvement but only managed to open her eyes to glance at An Xuanming before coughing up another mouthful of black blood and fainting.

"Master An, how is she?"

Qin Zhengdong asked anxiously.

Being a direct disciple of the Shennong Sect, if he couldn’t find a solution, then seeking any other Divine Doctor, be it Su or Qin, would be useless.

"Family Head, it seems my detoxification pill’s effects are insufficient. We must not delay; hurry to the Shennong Sect!"

An Xuanming also did not dare waste any time, well aware that for Qin Zhengdong, this daughter brought back from the outside was his heart’s treasure.

"Good, good...."

Qin Zhengdong picked up Zhou Nannan and strode towards the exit of the courtyard, with a group of guards immediately following, protecting the father and daughter from all sides.

"By the way, Master An, you stay here and hold down the fort. I’m worried something else might happen at home!"

After taking a few steps, Qin Zhengdong seemed to remember something, turning to speak to An Xuanming.

With his daughter poisoned, and his wife and other children at home, it would be a relief to have An Xuanming there in case of another poisoning incident.

"Understood, Family Head. I will contact the sect leader right away and make sure the Hao Jade Pill is ready!"

An Xuanming nodded and responded.

He actually didn’t want to follow Qin Zhengdong back to the Shennong Sect since Qin Yu had said he would be visiting the Qin Family soon.

Although he was not skilled in martial arts, as a master of medical arts, he had the power to save lives as well as to take them.

He had plenty of ways to deal with that arrogant young man!
