Li Nantian felt a wave of sha and lowered his head.
Old Master Li leaned against the sickbed, speaking slowly and deliberately, "Chi Enen was kidnapped inside Yunteng Company, and I suspected her. Later, right after I arrived at the Rainy City Hotel and t people from Yun Teng, she followed up the staircase from the ergency exit."
Old Master Li seed unwilling to recall the incident, his face pale and bloodless, but his voice was stern, "At first, she didn’t admit it. Then I threw the evidence in front of her, and she finally acknowledged what she did. Do you know what reason she gave ?"
"She believes Chi Enen is not suitable for Beijue!" Old Master Li said this, feeling a pain in his chest and coughed twice.
The old butler hurriedly ca forward to help him, comforting him softly, "Master Jue, please don’t be agitated. The doctor advised you to rest and avoid emotional upheaval."
Old Master Li rubbed his temple, suppressed the bloody taste in his throat, and continued to stare sternly at the person kneeling on the ground, his voice severe and resolute, "I can spare her once for her deceased mother’s sake, but I will not tolerate her staying in the Li family any longer!"
Li Nantian had anticipated this outco, but since Li Qiyun was nonetheless... Lan Sheng’s child, he still wanted to make one last effort.
"Dad, could you give her one more chance? Qiyun has already decided to marry Oslo."
"It’s because I’ve granted her too many chances that she had the opportunity to poison my beloved plants." Old Master Li revealed shocking news.
Li Nantian’s hands trembled in disbelief.
Old Master Li looked at him coldly and said, "Did you really think it was Chi Enen who poisoned ?"
"..."
"No! It was Qiyun!"
Old Master Li had been through a lifeti of experiences, encountering countless events. But nothing hurt him more than betrayal by his relatives.
He believed he had treated Li Qiyun with utmost benevolence and righteousness.
Regardless of whether Li Qiyun was of Li family’s blood, he treated her as one of their own.
He gave her opportunities, yet she brandished a knife against him, against Li’s Plutocrat!
Li Qiyun, worthy of being the one he taught personally, poisoned him long ago, and concealed it well.
It was on his most cherished potted plant.
Moreover, it was a chronic poison. Normally, nothing appeared amiss, but once it was triggered by dication, the dormant poison within the body would be activated.
That afternoon, when she ca to him, it started as a defense, then quickly turned into poisoning.
He didn’t know how long she had planned this, nor the reason behind the poisoning. But it was certain that Li Qiyun poisoned him.
The butler, who often helped him arrange the potted plants, also ingested a small amount of toxin.
He rembered, before he closed his eyes, Li Qiyun hesitated and then walked away without looking back.
If it weren’t for the old butler having only minor poisoning, briefly passing out, and with his last strength, picking up the hotel’s internal phone to call custor service.
Custor service sensed sothing was amiss and intruded in ti, discovering them.
Sending them to the hospital, there might have been no hope for him.
Old Master Li had never felt such disappointnt before, but Li Qiyun’s actions this ti left him utterly disheartened.
Especially after waking up and hearing the old butler report what she did during his coma, his eight levels of disappointnt turned into absolute heartbreak.
He knew Li Qiyun’s feelings for Beijue were no longer simply sisterly affection, but no matter what, Li’s Plutocrat had never wronged her.
