Chapter 51 -51 Lu Xining’s Vest Exposed
Lu Xining’s voice dropped, her tone icy, “I’ll give you the evidence later, but do you know what she…”
“Xining, before the truth comes out, you shouldn’t have poisoned her. It could have been lethal.”
Lu Xining scoffed dismissively, “You can keep your cool, but I can’t stand it even a little.”
Hiding behind him, Liu Xixi flashed a smug smile at Lu Xining.
When Ji Muye’s gaze shifted to her, she again turned into a pitiful, tearful figure, biting her lip and looking at him with grievance.
“Aye, I really didn’t do anything.”
...
“These past few days, I haven’t even left the Ji Family’s gate; you can ask the butler and others. I’ve been staying in my room to recuperate.”
Her hand caressed the injured half of her face, still bearing scars from being grazed by broken stones.
“I often look after Xiao Chao and Ji Ze; they are like my own sons to me. How could I possibly harm them?”
Her eyes reddened as she angrily addressed Lu Xining, “Xining, I know you hate me, but you can’t slander me and poison me!”
Liu Xixi looked up at Ji Muye’s delicate features, pleadingly told him, “Aye, the medicine makes my heart hurt so much.”
She had rehearsed this many times in front of the mirror. With any ordinary man, she would have already conquered him with her beauty and sympathetic ploys.
But Ji Muye seemed to grow colder towards her, simply calling the family doctor.
When the doctor arrived, he conducted a series of examinations, only to find nothing wrong, to which Liu Xixi raised her voice in disbelief.
“My heart hurts as if it’s being chewed on by insects. How can there be nothing wrong? You must have checked incorrectly!”
The physician, although the Ji Family’s family doctor, was a mentor to countless students, most of whom were experts in major hospitals.
Being a medical authority himself, how could he have possibly examined her incorrectly?
If not for the favors the Ji Family had shown him in his youth, he wouldn’t deign to be their family doctor.
“Miss Liu, if you don’t trust me, you are welcome to seek another expert.”

Having been a doctor since the beginning, no one had ever doubted his medical skills to his face like this; the family doctor’s face immediately darkened.
“Doctor Chen, I didn’t mean that…”
The family doctor recognized Lu Xining, his eyes brightening upon seeing her.
In front of everyone, he called out a title that surprised them all.
“Ah! Master, you have finally returned to Jingzhou!”
Apart from Lu Xining herself, the expressions of everyone else were quite spectacular.
To be called Master by a medical authority, there was only one person in the world who could be—Lu Xining.
Lu Xining spoke indifferently, “You have mistaken me for someone else. I am not your master.”
Back in the day, she often fell ill while at the Ji Family, with the family doctor frequently making house calls.
Later, to thank him, she gave him a health-enhancing medicine for his research.
And he had won many awards with that medicine.
Since then,
every time he saw her, he no longer called her Mrs. Ji, but Master.
She had tried to stop him many times to no avail.
Liu Xixi felt jealous and resentful!
Why? How could Lu Xining be so capable and attract so much attention?
While she could only pick up what Lu Xining discarded!
“Aye, my heart really hurts. It must be the poison that Xining fed me.”
Her pale face wasn’t fake, nor was the poison.
But the family doctor couldn’t detect it.
Hearing it was the poison that Lu Xining had fed her, the family doctor’s eyes lit up, and his gaze towards Liu Xixi immediately heated up.
He looked at Ji Muye, feigning seriousness, “President Ji, I would like to take Miss Liu to the hospital for a comprehensive exam. If she truly is poisoned, I will do everything in my power to treat her.”
Actually, as if!
He was just itching to study the medicine that Lu Xining had provided.
Since the medicine is already in the body, drawing blood for a lab test would also be effective.
The family doctor looked at Liu Xixi not as if she were a patient, but as a specimen about to be ushered into another realm.
Liu Xixi was panicked by his gaze.
She subconsciously tried to grab Ji Muye’s arm, but the man walked straight to Lu Xining and asked her, “What evidence did you just mention?”
An overpowering scent of hormones invaded, causing Lu Xining to frown and back away, only to find herself up against a wall, her only option to look up at the handsome and noble man.
She opened her phone and played a recording.
“Arrange for a few reliable people to capture the two Ji boys, make sure Ji Muye believes it was Lu Xining’s doing.”
“Don’t worry, he won’t suspect a thing, he trusts me completely, remember, it has to be someone who can keep their mouth shut.”
“Notify the old woman to sell off Lu Xining’s daughter, it has to be as far away as possible so she never finds her daughter in this lifetime!”
“Keep a close watch on the kids, Ji Family must not find them!”
Liu Xixi’s face drained of all color.
The voice in the recording was indeed hers, and the content was real, but she couldn’t let Ji Muye believe it was true!
“Aye, it’s not real, with today’s technology, it’s easy to synthesize a voice, you know me, I have no reason to do this.”
Ji Muye did not immediately respond to Liu Xixi or comfort her, but simply stared at her with deep, cold eyes.
“Liu Xixi, do you think everything is fake, except for yourself?” Lu Xining’s chest was burning with fury.
“This medicine is called ‘Three-Day Sacrifice’.”
As the name implies, three days after taking this medicine is the day of sacrifice.
Crucially, during these three days, the affected person will be in unbearable pain.
“Listen carefully, if Ji Chao and Ji Ze lose even a single hair, I will take your life in return!”
However, Liu Xixi, as if having caught a hold of Lu Xining’s weakness, immediately cried to Ji Muye, “Aye, you heard her, she admitted to poisoning me, and by the name alone you can tell it’s nothing good!”
Lu Xining was not afraid at all of Ji Muye knowing about this matter, as it involved two children.
She glanced at her daughter, who was dozing off on Monkey’s shoulder, and reached out to hold her.
Monkey gently patted Little Dumpling’s back and tenderly said, “Nuonuo is asleep, I’ll hold her.”
Despite Monkey’s fierce appearance, he was a gentle fighter in disposition and softened his voice considerably when talking to Lu Xining and Lu Nuonuo.
Lu Xining nodded.
Suddenly, Ji Muye felt an indescribable energy flowing between them.
Like family, and also like…
His silent, black eyes were exceptionally icy, surveying Monkey up and down with a dry throat and tightly pursed lips, a chill radiating from him.
Just then, the little one in Monkey’s arms muttered a dreamy word, “Daddy.”
Monkey smiled tenderly, softly patting her back.
“Good Nuobao…”
This scene caught Ji Muye’s eye, and he scoffed in self-ridicule.
Lu Xining, too, was watching her daughter.
She didn’t catch Ji Muye’s expression.
After her daughter fell asleep, she left with Monkey.
As she passed by Ji Muye, she didn’t even spare him a glance, her delicate features veiled in coldness and disappointment.
At the door, Lu Xining’s people and Ji Muye’s people faced off.
Seeing them come out, Lu Family’s bodyguard immediately stepped forward.
He protected Lu Xining and her group.
After leaving Ji Family’s domain, Lu Xining immediately had Haozi track down those Liu Family remnants, focusing on Liu Xixi’s admirers.
It never crossed her mind that at the very moment she received the final address, she would see a familiar name.
How could it be him!
