Chapter 1345 - 261: Courage Takes the Lead, Stirring Up the Snake (First Update)
If Ji Yunya’s words could still be taken as a joke, but with Doctor Hua speaking, who would dare to refute? What’s more important is that what he said is exactly the same as what Ji Yunya said...
For a moment, the people present all had a changed look in their eyes when they looked at Meng Shujing, thinking deeply and fearfully.
"Boss’s wife, how do you explain this?" Yan Guobai asked sternly.
Meng Shujing was at a loss for words, her face turned pale: "I... I know nothing, what Bitter Orange, what Green Peel, I’ve never even heard of them, how could grandpa’s fainting have anything to do with me, you can’t accuse me falsely...." After speaking, she looked at the stern-faced Yan Nanxiao, "You have to believe me."
There was obvious doubt in Yan Nanxiao’s eyes, and a chill surged in Meng Shujing’s heart as she suddenly turned her head to look at Ji Yunya, questioning why she would falsely accuse her. She thought she and Ji Yunya had reached a consensus, only to be betrayed like this. Anger at being betrayed surged within Meng Shujing, she believed Ji Yunya had betrayed the promise between them.
Yun Ya sighed and shook his head: "Aunt, I didn’t expect you to do such a thing. Is it something that Grandpa did that made you dissatisfied? You actually struck so viciously, Grandpa is already over eighty, he can’t withstand such torment..."
"No... it wasn’t me at all, Ji Yunya, don’t you dare slander me." Meng Shujing shouted angrily.
Yun Ya curled his lips into a sly smile, his eyes gleaming with cunning: "If it wasn’t you, then who was it? Could it be someone deliberately framing you? Secretly putting the incense on your clothes?"
A word to the wise, Meng Shujing suddenly realized, yes, this was clearly someone trying to frame her. Her eyes scanned the room and finally landed on Lu Yuke, her gaze filled with hatred.
From the incident until now, Lu Yuke was the most likely, considering if the old man was truly ill, Lu Yuke would propose to invite the Mage to take a look, ultimately targeting Ji Yunya. By then, relying on mere words, Ji Yunya would not be able to clear his name even if he jumped into the Yellow River, using her to achieve his goal while completely washing his hands off. What a great move, using a borrowed knife to kill.
Meng Shujing was seething with fury, Lu Yuke truly lived up to his reputation, striking with such venom.
Luckily, Ji Yunya found the incense on herself, preventing Lu Yuke’s plot from succeeding. Thinking about this, Meng Shujing felt a sense of satisfaction, completely forgetting her current predicament.
"The innocent fear no gossip, I absolutely will not admit to things I did not do." Meng Shujing said emphatically.
"Then how do you explain the incense on your clothes?" Zhuang Xiyue questioned further.
"The clothes were brought over by Qiaoyin, I didn’t know at all. I must get to the bottom of this matter, I won’t take the blame for nothing. The Yan Family has been peaceful for many years, though there have been occasional rows, but after the shouting, we are still family. But if someone tries to stir up trouble, I will be the first to disagree." As she spoke, Meng Shujing swept her gaze across the room, the authority of the eldest daughter-in-law still lingering, her words carrying a significant force.
"This indeed needs a thorough investigation, for such a thing to happen under my watch, though I’m old, I’m not completely useless." Lu Yuke said in a deep voice.
Meng Shujing almost laughed, a thief crying ’stop thief’, what great psychological resilience and acting to say such things.
The old man slowly regained consciousness, and Yan Song, the closest, immediately went over: "Great-grandpa, you are awake."
A swarm of people surrounded him immediately, Doctor Hua waved his hand: "There shouldn’t be too many people in the room, those who need to leave should do so."
The old man, holding Yan Song’s hand, then beckoned to Yun Ya again, and Yun Ya obediently went over. The old man held both of their hands, then glanced at Yan Fu, who immediately understood and came over to respectfully hand the red envelope to the old man.
The old man smiled and placed the red envelope in Yun Ya’s hand, patting her hand: "The red envelope from Great-grandpa, hold on to it."
Yun Ya smiled and nodded: "Mm, Great-grandpa, you must get well soon."
Doctor Hua gave a light hum, "Alright, the patient now needs rest, get on with what you need to do."
Though reluctantly, they obediently stepped out.
At this moment, Yin Suhua stumbled in, exclaiming immediately: "What should we do? Yuyu is bleeding, I cannot let anything happen to my grandson...."
Yun Ya immediately said: "I will go over right now."
In the room next door, when Yun Ya went in, Su Yu was lying on the large bed inside, looking in pain, and there was already blood underneath.
Yin Suhua was so scared her face was pale, Yun Ya calmly said: "Have you prepared everything I asked for?"
