The Ace Bigshot Becomes A Farmgirl

Chapter 1144: Chapter 1144: Beast

Wang Jiayi suddenly felt anxious. Not to mention her maid, even she couldn’t find an excuse to tie all the things together in such a short time.

What made her even more desperate was that Shu Yu directly asked Yao Po to take her maid to another room for questioning.

Wang Jiayi wanted to stop him but it was too late, let alone signaling to her maid.

Yao An and Yao Hong became anxious again. They wanted to go over and see, but Shu Yu stopped them.

“Why are you going over? Don’t worry, Uncle Yao and Aunt Yao are handling this. They won’t wrong Miss Wang, but they won’t let her deceive anyone either. Let Uncle Yao and Aunt Yao handle it.”

Yao Tianqin nodded, “You stay here, we’ll go over and listen.”

“Uncle, let me go too, who knows about that maid…”

Before he finished speaking, Ying Xi returned with Zhao Xi.

As soon as Ying Xi arrived, she saw the signal from her own lady and immediately blocked Yao An and his siblings with a dagger.

Yao Tianqin and Madam Yao had already gone to the neighboring room to watch Yao Po interrogate Wang Jiayi’s personal maid, but they hadn’t noticed Ying Xi’s return.

With Ying Xi watching Yao An and the others, Wang Jiayi also had Cai’er, Nanny Feng, and others keeping an eye on her.

Ms. Kang snorted coldly and said to Zhao Xi, “Doctor Zhao, please check on Yu. She ate something unclean earlier, I’m not sure if she’s alright.”

Shu Yu was naturally fine; Ying Xi had clearly explained this when she came to him.

But in front of so many people, they still had to go through the motions.

Zhao Xi asked her to sit on a chair nearby while he checked her pulse, quietly saying, “How did you end up in this situation while staying outside? Luckily, Yun wasn’t here last night, otherwise, he would have come and chopped up that Yao fellow. But don’t worry, I’ll take it out for you.”

After all, she’s his sister-in-law.

Shu Yu was surprised, “He didn’t come back?”

“No, he sent a message back saying he had to accompany someone out of town and probably won’t return until tomorrow.”

With that, Zhao Xi withdrew his hand and raised his voice slightly, “Since you’ve taken my detoxification medicine, there shouldn’t be any serious issues.”

Shu Yu immediately stood up and asked him to check on Ms. Kang.

Though it was confirmed there was no issue during the day, who knew if any disturbance from the night had affected her pregnancy.

Fortunately, Ms. Kang was perfectly fine, allowing Shu Yu to relax.

He then pointed at the medicine package on the table that Wang Jiayi intended to use for poisoning, asking Zhao Xi to confirm what kind of medicine it was.

Zhao Xi was still inspecting, while in the next room, Yao Po had finished questioning.

Yao Tianqin and Madam Yao were the first to come out, both looking guiltily at Shu Yu.

Madam Yao quickly walked a few steps, holding Shu Yu’s hand and said, “It’s all my fault for not managing the backyard well. I kindly let you stay here, only to bring misfortune upon you, almost causing harm, causing you…”

As she spoke, she glared at Yao An with reddened eyes.

Yao An’s face changed; he knew that Wang Jiayi’s maid couldn’t withstand the pressure and revealed the source of the medicine.

Not only did she confess, but she likely disclosed everything she knew.

His face darkened, just as he was about to say something, Yao Tianqin stepped forward and slapped him abruptly.

“Ah…” Yao Hong screamed beside him, covering her mouth and stepping back two paces.

“Beast.” Yao Tianqin trembled with anger.
