From Rejected Fake Heiress to Desired True Love-Chapter 357: Investigating Li Tianhong

Huo Siyu had Aunt Zhang leave, she can take care of herself alone.

After tidying up the house, Huo Siyu put on a hat and went downstairs to the bakery, buying a lot of bread.

Just as she reached the residential complex, a figure darted out, blocking Huo Siyu’s way.

"Si Yu..."

Hearing the familiar voice, Huo Siyu rolled her eyes.

"Mo Shaolin, do you have a masochistic streak? In the past, you ignored me when I showed interest, and now what are you? Being a masochist?"

Mo Shaolin endured Huo Siyu’s abuse without getting angry.

Carrying a bag, Mo Shaolin handed it to Huo Siyu: "Si Yu, I bought you some nutritional supplements, take them back and eat."

"Mo Shaolin, you really are being masochistic. There’s nothing between us, unsolicited kindness is either scheming or theft, can you get lost?"

Huo Siyu walked forward as if trying to shake off the bad luck behind her.

Mo Shaolin chased after her, running forward while holding the bag.

"Huo Siyu, stop for a moment, can you listen to what I have to say?"

Huo Siyu didn’t respond and sped up her pace.

The residential complex had an access control system, and Huo Siyu rushed through it.

When she turned around inside the complex, she saw that Mo Shaolin had also used his card to get in.

Before Huo Siyu could ask anything, Mo Shaolin said with a smile: "I also bought a house in this complex."

Letting out a sigh, Huo Siyu coldly warned him: "Mo Shaolin, I’m telling you again, if you dare come near me, you’re dead!"

Huo Siyu turned around and left without any sentimentality, her face cold as ice.

Just as Mo Shaolin caught up to her and was about to speak, Huo Siyu suddenly pulled out a small knife and slashed the hand that Mo Shaolin had just reached out.

Mo Shaolin’s arm was cut open, and watching all this with a cold gaze, Huo Siyu mockingly said: "Mo Shaolin, I’ve already told you, come any closer, and you are dead! If you don’t believe me, follow me and see."

Huo Siyu sneered coldly and left.

Watching Huo Siyu’s retreating figure, Mo Shaolin felt heartbroken.

He also didn’t know why he came looking for Huo Siyu, nor why he bought so many tonics.

He lowered his head to look at the back of his hand, letting out a self-mocking laugh.

...

When Li Xia came to Mo Shaolin’s place, she saw him leaning against the sofa, the expensive sofa stained with blood.

Not only that, Mo Shaolin hadn’t bandaged his wound either.

"Brother Shaolin, how did you get hurt?"

Li Xia rushed over, took out supplies from the medicine box, and started disinfecting and bandaging Mo Shaolin’s hand.

"Brother Shaolin, you can talk to me if something’s wrong, don’t hurt yourself."

Li Xia showed great concern for Mo Shaolin, sitting by his side, showing warmth and care.

"Brother Shaolin, say something, what happened? If there’s anything, you can tell me, I’ll definitely help you."

Faced with Li Xia’s concerned gaze, Mo Shaolin said calmly: "I’m fine, just a bit tired. Xiaxia, you go back first, I want to sleep for a while."

Li Xia: "..."

Was Mo Shaolin sending her away?

Mo Shaolin had never treated her so coldly, what happened today?

Trying to maintain her persona, Li Xia said with a gentle voice: "Brother Shaolin, since you want to sleep, then I will leave. Remember to call me if you need anything, I am very worried about you."

Mo Shaolin hummed in response, and Li Xia had no choice but to leave.

...

Li Xia waited a while, then Mo Shaolin’s housekeeper came out.

"What happened? I sense that Brother Shaolin’s mood is off, did Huo Siyu come back?"

"Huo Siyu didn’t come back, and I don’t know what happened to the young master. After he came back, he lay on the sofa without speaking and wouldn’t let me bandage him. I had no choice but to call and tell you,"

Li Xia said with displeasure: "From now on, only call me for important matters. There’s no need to contact me about such trivial things. Understand?"

The servant was somewhat surprised, not expecting Li Xia to say such a thing.

Doesn’t Li Xia like Mo Shaolin? Why would she say not to tell her about such a matter?

Could it be that Li Xia doesn’t like Mo Shaolin?

Before the servant had time to ponder any further, Li Xia had left.

The servant was baffled and just as she turned around, she found Mo Shaolin standing right in front of her.

The servant was startled and felt a little guilty.

"Young Master," the servant said, feeling guilty.

Mo Shaolin’s icy gaze filled the servant with trepidation.

Mo Shaolin spoke, "From now on, you’re no longer a servant here. You’re dismissed."

The servant was scared and asked anxiously, "Young Master, why are you dismissing me? Did I do something wrong? I can change. I have served you for many years. If I’m not here, who will take care of you?"

Mo Shaolin sneered and questioned, "Was it you who called Xiaxia? By revealing the situation here to others, where is your professional integrity?"

The servant had not expected Mo Shaolin to mention this.

Mo Shaolin’s eyes, filled with a chilling intent, silenced the servant, making her afraid to speak anymore.

...

Nan Qiao carried the cup from which Li Tianhong had drunk water to the lab.

Zheng Qinnian was also there, and upon seeing Nan Qiao, he greeted her with a smile, "Qiaoqiao, you’re here."

"I met with Li Tianhong; this is the cup he drank from. Ah Nian, please handle this."

"Alright, I’ll take it for analysis now," replied Zheng Qinnian as he took the cup into the adjacent lab.

Meanwhile, Nan Qiao entered another lab to check the status of the poisonous insects.

She had been closely monitoring Yao Yuzhi’s health condition.

To restore Yao Yuzhi’s health, she needed to lure away the poisonous insects.

The insects seemed to be thriving in a glass jar, which somewhat reassured Nan Qiao.

...

After the analysis, Zheng Qinnian obtained the results.

"After comparing Li Tianhong’s saliva, I found traces of the poisonous insect in his body," he said.

Hearing Zheng Qinnian’s words, Nan Qiao was not too surprised.

If Li Tianhong was so obedient to Jiang Linyu’s words, perhaps he was indeed under a curse.

Nan Qiao said, "I’ve asked my master to contact a master of rearing poisonous insects in the Miao Region to see if we can find any traces. Once we know what kind of curse Jiang Linyu used, we’ll be able to find a solution."

Zheng Qinnian nodded, "No wonder back then Li Tianhong was so enamoured with Jiang Linyu, insisting on marrying no one but her. It wasn’t genuine affection but rather emotions controlled by something."

Nan Qiao thought of Li Yehan’s mother, who died with grievances, and whether Li Tianhong’s affections for Jiang Linyu were real or not was, for now, still uncertain.

Zheng Qinnian asked, "Do you want to talk to Li Yehan about this?"

Nan Qiao shook her head, "Not for now. We’ll only tell him after things are certain."

Uncertainties can easily give false hope.

Nan Qiao didn’t want to see Li Yehan disappointed.

Zheng Qinnian remained silent, reading Nan Qiao’s feelings for Li Yehan from her face.

Nan Qiao truly likes Li Yehan, that’s why she takes his matters to heart.

Just as Nan Qiao sat down, her phone rang.
