Chapter 1535: That Couple Is InnocentEditor: Henyee Translations

Shao Qingyuan ignored the Gu family and immediately chased after the girl.

But he could only see Gu Yundong’s back.

Gu Yundong ran quickly. Although she did not lose Luo Qi this time, she still maintained a distance between them. Soon, she entered a dilapidated courtyard.

Gu Yundong stood there for a moment. When Shao Qingyuan caught up, he said, "Is the food really poisonous?"

She had run far away at that time, but she could still vaguely hear this sentence.

Shao Qingyuan nodded. "Yes, at least there’s some in the wine." The person who administered the poison didn’t use a good poison. The smell was special. A doctor like him who knew a lot about medicinal herbs could naturally smell it.

If someone wanted to poison anyone, it was unlikely that he would only do it in alcohol.

When Gu Yundong heard this, she turned to look at the courtyard. So the girl called Luo Qi also knew about this and lifted the tablecloth?

"Let’s go in and take a look."

Shao Qingyuan nodded, and the two of them walked to the courtyard door.

Gu Yundong was about to knock on the door when the sound of dishes falling to the ground suddenly came from inside.

Gu Yundong and Shao Qingyuan looked at each other. They could not care less and pushed the door open.

As they approached the main house, they heard a weak and yet sharp voice coming from inside. "Are you serious? Did Sister-in-law really poison the Gu family’s food? Did you go and lift the tablecloth?"

"Mother, don’t be agitated. Don’t..."

"Hurry up and tell me what’s going on." Gu Yuwen couldn’t help but be excited. She didn’t expect Mrs. Jiang to have such guts.

Luo Qi pursed her lips and said, "Didn’t Mrs. Jiang send a bowl of meat over previously? I wanted to return it, but when I entered the Gu family’s house, I found her sprinkling poison on the food in the kitchen, so I rushed back."

"Then, what about the bowl of meat?"

"I buried it on the hill behind the village."

Gu Yundong was stunned. So when she met her previously, she happened to be burying meat?

That made sense. At that time, she seemed to have a shovel in her hand.

Luo Qi’s voice came from the room again. "I didn’t want to go to the Gu family. So what if those people from the Gu family are dead? They’re so bad. It’s not like I poisoned them. It’s none of my business. I’ll pretend not to know. B-But that couple is innocent..."

Gu Yundong and Shao Qingyuan looked at each other and smiled.

Luo Qi said, "Madam Shao helped me up when I fell and even gave me snacks. Mother, I, I think that the Gu family deserved to die. However, those two people were implicated by the Gu family. It would be a pity if they died. I couldn’t help but go and lift the tablecloth."

Gu Yuwen sighed and reached out to touch her head.

"You’re too impulsive. If you lift the tablecloth, the Gu family will find trouble with you. Go out and hide first."

Luo Qi shook her head. "If I go out, what will happen to Mother? I’ll stay here and accompany Mother. If they come looking for me, I’ll say that the food is poisonous."

Gu Yuwen smiled and said, "You know that they won’t believe you even if you say it. Otherwise, you would have said it when you removed the tablecloth."

Luo Qi lowered her head slightly.

Gu Yundong, who was outside the house, sighed. The two people in the house instantly turned their heads. Luo Qi even reached out to protect Gu Yuwen and shouted, "Come out."

Gu Yundong and Shao Qingyuan walked in.
