465 Discovery
“Doctor Qin, the medicine is ready. Do you want me to feed her now?”
When he entered the room, Xu Linyuan asked, holding a bowl of Chinese medicine.
Qin Xi sniffed the bitter and unpleasant smell in the air and frowned slightly. Her eyes suddenly became stern. “Who boiled this medicine?”
Seeing that her expression was strange, Xu Linyuan’s heart skipped a beat. His expression immediately changed and he asked carefully, “Doctor Qin, I asked the nanny to boil this medicine. Is there a problem?”
Qin Xi glanced at him. “Problem? There’s an additional herb inside. Do you think there’s a problem?”
Xu Linyuan quickly put down the medicine and took out the prescription Qin Xi had written. He read it all out. “I only bought the 12 herbs included in the prescription. Doctor Qin, take a look…”
“The additional medicine is not a Chinese medicine, but a Western medicine.” Qin Xi suddenly asked, “Is your nanny trustworthy?”
“She’s definitely trustworthy. She’s been working for my family for more than 30 years. She watched us grow up, especially Xu Wu. She raised Xu Wu up and cares about Xu Wu more than anyone else. Doctor Qin, are you saying that the nanny might have tampered with the medicine?”
Xu Linyuan found it unbelievable, but he was more afraid. According to Qin Xi, the consequences of this additional medicine should be very serious.
He asked tentatively, “What will happen if this additional medicine is added?”
Qin Xi looked at him as if he was a fool. “If it wasn’t to kill your precious sister, why would the other party add something extra to it?”
Even though he was mentally prepared, Xu Linyuan still broke out in a cold sweat when he heard this. When he thought of how someone had tampered with the medicine, he suddenly exploded with anger. He suppressed the anger in his heart and said to Qin Xi, “Doctor Qin, I’ll go make the medicine again. This time, I’ll make it myself.”
He could only put the murderer aside for the time being. Xu Wu’s illness was more important and could not be delayed.
Qin Xi smiled. “It’s very simple to catch the murderer. You just have to tell everyone that you knocked over the medicine bowl and need to make it again.”
Actually, she already had a suspect in her mind, but she was in no position to point it out. It was better to let them find out for themselves.
Xu Linyuan quickly thanked Qin Xi. “Thank you for your reminder, Doctor Qin. I’ll go now.”
Qin Xi immediately stopped him. Under Xu Linyuan’s puzzled gaze, Qin Xi came to his side with the medicine and sprinkled some on him. The rest was poured into the flower pot.
“Alright, go!”
Xu Linyuan nodded. As soon as he left the room, the Xu family rushed up to ask about the situation.
Xu Linyuan quietly sized up these people. In their eyes, he saw excitement, hope, worry, indifference, and nervousness.
He sighed in her heart. These people were really not simple!
Xu Linyuan pretended to be sorry and said, “I was too nervous just now and knocked over the medicine. I’ll go make another bowl now. If you’re tired, go back to your room and rest. Doctor Qin said that Wu won’t wake up for a while.”
She thought that she would hear good news, but to her surprise, Xu Linyuan knocked over the medicine. Liu Su looked at the medicine dregs on his body and said anxiously and angrily, “Linyuan, give me the prescription. I’ll go make the medicine.”
The old man and Liu Haisheng looked at him suspiciously. They felt that something was wrong. They knew best what kind of person Xu Linyuan was. He was calm and collected. He wanted everything to be perfect. All these years, he had managed the company well. How could such a person make such a stupid mistake?
