"Ah Jue, you're thinking too much. I just suddenly wanted to go on a trip to relax. That's why I asked Uncle Tian to help me find a more fun place." She stood up and she pulled his hand away. "Ah Jue, I'm a little tired. Let go of me. I should go upstairs and rest."
"Okay." Hearing that she wanted to rest, Ling Yijue felt that she was going on a trip. He suddenly felt afraid, as if he was about to lose something, but he still let go of her hand.
After he let go of her, Tang Xiaowei ran upstairs in a hurry.
Ling Yijue was left alone downstairs, deep in thought.
However, he quickly remembered what had happened just now, and a fire rose up in his eyes.
He took out his phone and immediately made a call.
Ling Yijue ordered coldly, "Immediately investigate the whereabouts of Huangfu Qiye for the past two days."
Did Huangfu Qiye start to look for other women after splitting up with Tang Xiaowei?
If Huangfu Qiye was such a scumbag, Ling Yijue would never let him go!
...
At noon.
Not long after Tang Xiaowei's illness broke out, Ling Shitian returned before she could even clean up the blood stains in the bathroom.
Ling Shitian pushed open the door and entered the room. He immediately smelled the stench of blood in the air.
He recalled the time when Shangguan Yuyu's illness broke out in the past. This was how it was. He also recalled the day on the lawn when little rosette lost a lot of blood. Hence, he was worried about his little rosette.
He rushed to the bathroom and saw Tang Xiaowei sitting on the floor with a pale face. The floor in the bathroom was covered in blood.
Ling Shitian's eyes were red with heartache as he choked out, "Little rose..."
Tang Xiaowei turned around and wiped the blood from her mouth and nose. She smiled faintly, "Uncle Tian, you're back."
This was the second time Uncle Tian saw her illness flare up. The terrifying scene made Uncle Tian look close to tears. It made her feel that she had let him down.
"Little rose, how can it be so serious?" Ling Shitian had seen all kinds of bloody scenes, but just then, he realized that he couldn't even move his feet.
Tang Xiaowei was actually much better now. She stood up and said seriously, "Uncle Tian, you still haven't found any clues about the Song family?"
"I can't say that I haven't found any at all, but it's very slim. It's possible that that clue was fake." Ling Shitian sighed.
Hearing that, Tang Xiaowei lost the urge to wash away the blood stains on her body.
She stood up and grabbed Ling Shitian's hand forcefully. "Uncle Tian, are you serious? Do you really have clues about the Song family?"
"There are some clues, but I want to send someone over to check out the real situation first. If it's true, then bring them over. If you can't bring them back, then we'll go over," Ling Shitian said seriously.
Tang Xiaowei shook her head anxiously. "Uncle Tian, there's no need to send anyone over. Just tell me where the Song family is and I'll go over."
"Xiaoqiang, you want to go personally?" Ling Shitian looked at Tang Xiaowei in surprise.
Putting aside whether the information he had painstakingly obtained was true or not, it might be dangerous for Xiaoqiang to go personally.
If it was false, it would be even more dangerous.
"Uncle Tian, I don't want to drag this on any longer. Since I have a clue, I want to find the antidote that might let me live. I want to go and look for it myself. If I don't find it, I can rest assured and not force the issue anymore," Tang Xiaowei replied seriously. Then, she smiled and said, "Uncle Tian, you go out and prepare first. I'll wash the blood off my body. After I come out, we can talk in detail."
At that moment, the bathroom she was standing in was still covered in blood.
Ling Shitian looked at her with a heartache when he heard that and instructed, "Little rose, Uncle Tian will go back to the study room upstairs first. Come and look for me when you're done."
Tang Xiaowei nodded.
Then, Ling Shitian left and closed the door for her.
Tang Xiaowei quickly washed herself and changed her clothes. She was ready to go to the study room upstairs to look for Ling Shitian.
However, she saw Ling Yijue standing at the door of her room just as she walked out of the room. He looked like he was about to knock on the door.
Tang Xiaowei looked at him in surprise. "Ah Jue, why are you looking for me?"
Ling Yijue's expression changed and he immediately smiled gently. "It's nothing. I just wanted to come and tell you that father has returned. Didn't you say that you wanted to see him this morning?"
"Oh, so it's about this private matter. I've just met Uncle Tian, but I still have some things to discuss with him. I'm preparing to go upstairs to look for him now." Tang Xiaowei also smiled.
Only then did Ling Yijue give her a seat and let her come out. "Then I'll send you up."
"No need. I'll go up myself." Tang Xiaowei rejected his good intentions. In fact, she didn't want him to hear her conversation with Uncle Tian.
After all, she didn't want to tell Ling Yijue about her illness.
Ling Yijue was used to being rejected. He wasn't angry and just nodded indifferently. "Alright then. I can watch you go up."
Tang Xiaowei didn't pay much attention to him. She nodded, closed the door, and turned to walk towards the elevator.
After the elevator opened, she walked in.
After she left, Ling Yijue, who was still standing at her door, frowned deeply. He suddenly opened her room door and strode in.
He kept walking towards the bathroom.
As expected, the closer he got, the more he could smell the strong smell of blood.
Ever since he was injected with the blood charm, the smell of blood was special to him. He could easily smell the aroma of blood around him, and he could even sense what kind of blood it was.
When he was outside earlier, he had already sensed the smell of blood drifting out of her room.
The smell of blood must be from her injured body.
He knocked on the door in order to check the situation.
However, he saw that she was not hurt when she opened the door and he dispelled the suspicion that she was injured.
However, the smell of blood in her room and even in the bathroom was so strong, and she was not injured. Could it be that someone was hiding in her room?
Thinking of this possibility, he was afraid that someone would hurt Tang Xiaowei, so he opened the door and entered quietly.
However, when he opened the bathroom door, he found that there was no one inside.
Other than the smell of blood, there was no suspicious figure.
The only suspicious thing was that all the windows in the bathroom were opened. However, when he walked over, he did not find anyone standing outside.
This meant that there was no one hiding here.
