463 A Terrifying Thought
When Xu Linyuan came out, Liu Su seemed to have found hope and asked anxiously, “How’s Wu?”
“Third Aunt, don’t worry. Wu is doing well. Doctor Qin said that she will wake up soon. I have to go and get the herbs now and don’t have time to talk. By the way, don’t disturb Doctor Qin, or something might really happen.”
He spoke in a hurry. After saying that, he quickly left to get the herbs.
When Elder Xu and Liu Su heard that Xu Wu would wake up soon, the joy on their faces was obvious. The others did not care. A girl was not much of a threat to them.
However, only Xu Jiao seemed to have been struck dumb. Her mind went blank and there was only one thought in her mind.
If Xu Wu woke up, she would be chased out of the Xu family. From then on, she would not be able to live a luxurious life and would not have much contact with Xu Linyuan. As she saw Elder Xu and Liu Su crying tears of joy, a malicious glint flashed across her eyes.
Soon, Xu Linyuan bought all the herbs Qin Xi mentioned and boiled them in the pot according to the order.
“Brother Linyuan, let me help you. You’ve never done this before. Let me do it!” At this moment, Xu Jiao walked in carefully and said softly.
Xu Linyuan glanced at her and ignored her. However, he was afraid that he would make a mistake, so he found a nanny and reminded her, “Mrs. Tong, stay here and watch. After half an hour, filter the herbal dregs and bring the medicine to me. Remember to keep your eyes on it.”
Xu Jiao’s eyes were filled with sadness. She clenched her fists and bit her lower lip, feeling extremely resentful towards Qin Xi.
In her opinion, if not for Qin Xi being a busybody, Xu Wu would not have recovered. As soon as Xu Wu recovered, she would definitely be chased out.
After Xu Linyuan left, Xu Jiao took a deep breath, looked at Mrs. Tong, and turned to leave.
When she returned to her room, Xu Jiao was nervous and anxious. She paced back and forth in the room, trembling. Just as she was at a loss, she saw a bottle of cephalosporin in the corner of the table.
She suddenly remembered that Xu Wu seemed to be allergic to cephalosporin.
A bold and dangerous thought suddenly appeared in her mind. Her heart beat wildly, and the hand holding the cephalosporin trembled uncontrollably.
However, this was her only hope. If she did not take the risk, she might lose this family forever.
Besides, if something happened to Xu Wu, she wouldn’t be the most suspicious person. What was there to be afraid of?
At the thought of this, the Xu family took a deep breath and poured out two cephalosporins with trembling hands. Although she convinced herself that it was fine, she was still a child after all. How could she not be afraid?
However, compared to being afraid at this moment, she was more afraid of being abandoned by the Xu family like trash.
In order to make the cephalosporins better dissolved, she crushed them and wrapped them in a small piece of paper. After doing all of this, she took a few deep breaths to cheer herself on.
“Good luck, Xu Jiao. You’re the real daughter of the Xu family. As for Xu Wu, since she’s slept for so many years, let her continue sleeping. Don’t allow anyone to take your position away.”
Xu Jiao’s eyes were firm and her heart was filled with fighting spirit. She turned around and went to the kitchen. Seeing that Mrs. Tong was still there, she walked in with a smile.
Xu Jiao stopped in her tracks. “Mrs. Tong, how’s the preparation of the medicine? I’m here to take a look.”
Without batting an eyelid, she went to the pot and looked inside.
Mrs. Tong glanced at her and said, “Miss Jiao, you should go out. The smell here is too strong.”
