The butler’s words fell, and the maid standing by imdiately nodded like pounding garlic.
"Yes, ma’am, the clothes were given to by Mr. Jie, washed all at once, and there were more than just this one garnt that day, but nothing like a dicine bottle was found."
"Dan Hanjie took them to you for cleaning?"
Qin Youxuan caught the key point in the maid’s words, furrowing her brows.
"Yes, early in the morning, when I went to tidy up the room, it was Mr. Jie who handed the clothes." The maid recalled carefully and then spoke with certainty.
"I understand, you may go back to your work." Qin Youxuan took back the clothes and closed the door.
She glanced at her son, who was sweetly asleep, then walked to the tatami on the balcony to sit down.
Cradling the clothes without letting go.
Not long after, Dan Hanjie, having received the ssage, pushed the door and entered.
He glanced around the spacious bedroom, didn’t see her figure, and headed towards the balcony.
Seeing Qin Youxuan nestled on the tatami, a flash of enchantnt in his eyes, his gaze fell on the clothes in her hands.
He thought she had forgotten, but it turned out she still rembered.
"The dicine bottle in my pocket, was it you who took it?"
"No."
"You didn’t even ask what kind of dicine bottle it was, yet you’re so certain it wasn’t you?" Qin Youxuan asked with a faint rise of her eyebrows, looking at the man’s calm face.
"..."
Dan Hanjie clenched his palm slightly, the corners of his eyes narrowing, "You questioned the butler and called the maid, making such a fuss over a dicine bottle, why would I need to ask?"
"The one who brought back that day was you, and the only person who could have approached after I fell asleep was also you. I had always kept the bottle in my pocket, it was there when I got into the car, how could it suddenly disappear?"
Qin Youxuan let her legs down, standing up from the tatami.
Her petite body stood in front of Dan Hanjie, she looked up fearlessly into his eyes.
Hoping to detect a hint of guilt in the man’s eyes, but she saw nothing.
His eyes revealed nothing but calmness.
"Maybe it fell out when you got out of the car, is just a dicine bottle worth all this trouble?"
"Yes, I was thinking the sa, it’s just a dicine bottle, why do you insist on hiding it?" Qin Youxuan said, the corner of her mouth revealing a bitter smile.
"..."
"Dan Hanjie, you put on a good act, but I know you’re lying, from the first sentence you spoke, I knew. Do you know what gave it away?"
Qin Youxuan slowly raised her hand, tracing his forehead, mockingly looking at him.
"Hearing looking for the dicine bottle, if you hadn’t seen it, your first reaction would have been to frown and then ask what dicine I was taking behind your back, but you didn’t, you just calmly told it wasn’t you who took the bottle."
"..."
"If it’s not because you no longer care about my life or death, then there’s only one possibility, you took the dicine bottle, and you already know the effect of that dicine, and you are certain it’s not mine."
"..."
A glint of deep light seeped from Dan Hanjie’s eyes, "Are you testing ?"
"I just want to know, where did you take the dicine bottle? Why are you so anxious to take it from for just a bottle of dicine? That bottle, I found it in my dad’s study, could it be related to you as well?"
Qin Youxuan took a step back, her gaze panicking.
"What nonsense are you thinking about? I told you I haven’t seen that bottle of dicine, don’t question with the tone of interrogating a criminal, I’m your husband!"
"Then tell , where did my dicine bottle go? What exactly is that dicine?"
