Chapter 389: Li Luo's rift
Shen Li jogged all the way, her eyes blurred by tears, her heart full of grievance and sadness, so much so that she didn't notice the guards chasing her after her for a short distance.
The guard looked panicked and shouted as he ran, "County Lady, County Lady, this is bad! Young Master Luo suddenly vomited blood and is unconscious!"
The shouting sounded particularly harsh in the quiet courtyard, instantly breaking the original tranquility.
Shen Shaodong, Su Ran, Zhao Lin and others were originally in their respective rooms. They were startled by the sudden noise and opened their doors one after another, looking confused and worried.
Shen Shaodong glanced at his daughter who was standing there crying, sighed helplessly, and wondered what was going on with the two children. Then he quickly walked towards Luo Lingchen's room, wanting to see what was going on.
Su Ran walked straight towards Shen Li, his eyes full of heartache and concern.
He gently took out a white handkerchief from his sleeve and gently wiped the tears from Shen Li's face. He whispered softly, "Li'er, did that guy bully you again? Tell Brother Su, and I will teach him a lesson and avenge you!"
Shen Li was crying so hard that she was out of breath, her eyes were red, and she was so aggrieved that she couldn't speak at all. She just kept sobbing, and her tears rolled down like beads from a broken string.
At this moment, Chu Qiu hurried over. She first glanced at Shen Li's face, then said softly, "Miss, there's news from the county government that the traffickers couldn't stand the interrogation and have confessed. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is busy arranging for those unclaimed children to return home."
Shen Li just nodded mechanically after hearing this, and said to Chu Qiu in a slightly hoarse voice: "I want to go back to my room to rest for a while, you can go with me."
Chu Qiu quickly responded, "Yes, Miss." Then she carefully supported Shen Li and slowly walked towards the room.
Everyone was left standing there, looking at each other in bewilderment. They were all filled with confusion, wondering what had happened between Shen Li and Luo Lingchen, a couple who seemed quite close on a daily basis, and why it had gotten to such a point that they hadn't even bothered to see Luo Lingchen vomit blood and faint.
They still remember that Shen Li personally made wontons and brought them into the house for that person...
In fact, Shen Li had her own considerations for not wanting to see Luo Lingchen.
She knew in her heart that her father had such a magical item as the Spirit Spring Water. Not long ago, she had personally taken Luo Lingchen's pulse and realized that his body was no longer seriously injured and had basically recovered.
Therefore, when she heard the news that Luo Lingchen vomited blood and fainted, she was certain that this was just another way for him to trick her into going back.
After all, she had seen all of Luo Lingchen's quirky ideas and slightly cunning actions.
This time, she was determined not to be easily swayed by his little tricks and to make him understand that such casual deception was not advisable.
Su Ran stood there quietly, the sunlight shining on him, but it could not dispel the sinister aura emanating from him.
The corners of his mouth rose slightly, revealing an imperceptible sneer, and he secretly rejoiced in his heart: The current situation is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for me.
That spiritual spring water was a rare treasure, its effects miraculous, having cured Luo Lingchen time and time again. But what would be the reaction when it encountered the world's most poisonous substance?
As he pondered secretly, he slowly raised his hand and touched his chin, a hint of ruthlessness flashed in his eyes.
"This poison is truly amazing. It's colorless and odorless. No matter how shrewd Luo Lingchen is, he won't be able to detect it at all."
He whispered softly, as if telling himself a secret that could not be told.
Then, he quietly pulled a small, exquisite porcelain bottle from his sleeve and held it tightly in his hand. His gaze was fixed on Luo Lingchen's room not far away. He already had a plan in mind: "Just put this poison in his teacup. Once he drinks it, even if he has nine lives, he won't survive!"
After saying that, he started walking, slowly heading towards Luo Lingchen's room. Each step he took was steady and resolute, as if he were an avenger about to complete his mission, emitting a chilling aura.
