C61 What a Coincidence

Xiao Yunyi paused as he ate and said, "Let him go to the villa, I'll go back later."

Lan Xi looked at Xiao Yunyi and didn't say anything as she quietly lowered her head to eat.

After lunch was over, Qiao Lin stayed behind to accompany Lan Xi while the chauffeur escorted Xiao Yun back to the villa.

Lu Zihao had received a letter from Qiao Lin long ago and was waiting there.

"Sir, sir, sir …"

The servants that passed by respectfully greeted Xiao Yunyi, but due to Xiao Yunyi's imposing manner, no one dared to step forward.

This was the first time Xiao Yunyi had returned after Lan Xi's accident. The servants were all trembling in fear, not knowing what kind of reaction he would have. However, when they recalled how the chef had only been expelled, they felt slightly more at ease.

Xiao Yunyi walked up to the study on the second floor with a cold expression.

Everyone looked at his back and felt that the temperature around him had dropped even further. Seeing Xiao Yunyi close the door to the study, the servants let out sighs of relief as they gathered together and whispered.

A maid took advantage of the lack of attention from the others to send a message: "Mister is back." Then, he pretended as if nothing had happened and returned to the crowd to listen to their discussion.

Although he hadn't been back for a while, the study remained clean and tidy. For safety's sake, this place was cleaned by Jolin herself.

Xiao Yunyi sat down on a chair behind his desk and turned on his computer.

Not long after, Lu Zihao came in, holding an u plate in his hand.

"Speak, why are you looking for me?" Have you found out who poisoned him? "

Xiao Yunyi shifted his gaze from the computer to Lu Zihao and asked coldly.

Lu Zihao nodded his head, passing the USB in his hand to him, "My results are all here. Take a look."

Seeing Xiao Yunyi insert the USB into the computer, Lu Zihao said, "After I heard what you and Miss Lan said the other day, I went over to the chef and specifically asked him what dishes he cooked that night, especially what soup he made. You didn't notice these things, but Jolene did. Every day, the chef's cooking was recorded in order to prevent something from happening. So before I went to question the cook, I looked through the booklet and found that she had made fish soup that day. But there's nothing wrong with the fish soup. It's just that the chef told me that he added a lot of ginger to the fish pond. "

"Ginger?"

"Yes." Lu Zihao continued, "This chef has worked here for a long time. How could he not know that you don't like ginger? Moreover, he had doubled the amount he used to make the fish. "Because someone told him that you definitely wouldn't drink ginger soup in the rain today, so he wanted to use the fish soup to help you get rid of the cold, the cook accepted his opinion."

"It's Mu Yaran."

"That's right. Later on, when I was checking the surveillance cameras in your study, I also discovered that Mu Yaran appeared in the kitchen." And she appeared in the kitchen twice that day, once when he told the cook to add ginger to the fish soup and once when he put the medicine in. "

"But how could she be so careless and get caught by the camera? Although my camera is very secretive, she is not such a careless person. " Xiao Yunyi still raised his doubts.

"That's exactly what she's good at. You can't imagine where she put the poison. She put it on the bowl of soup."

"Therefore, that bowl was specially prepared for Lan Xi. Even if I drank that fish soup, I would still be fine, because my bowl is clean, and she left in the middle just to confuse me. "

Lu Zihao nodded his head, "Actually, I could only discover this was a coincidence. When I was checking the surveillance cameras, I saw Mu Yaran enter the kitchen for the second time. I was a little suspicious, but I didn't see anything suspicious about her actions." Later, when I checked the restaurant monitor, I found that she had deliberately broken a bowl. Then she had taken the initiative to fetch another bowl from the kitchen and had taken a handkerchief from her pocket to wipe the bowl. To my surprise, how could they do this in accordance with the habits of famous ladies, and the handkerchief was a new LV, and how could she clean a bowl with such a precious piece? "

"So you went to look for the handkerchief?"

Lu Zihao laughed, "This is the place where I said it was a coincidence. I didn't find that handkerchief, but rather that black cat."

"The black cat you warned me about?"

Lu Zihao nodded, "That maid brought the black cat back and kept it in her room. The cat was also quite obedient and didn't run around. The handkerchief was found by the maid in the trash can. She had wanted to stay, but found that there were stains on it, so she found a fresh film to wrap it around for the time being, and therefore she was not poisoned. "That girl felt something was wrong and came to find me after that cat discovered me as a warning."

Xiao Yunyi laughed coldly, "What a coincidence."

Lu Zihao shrugged his shoulders, "Yeah, I've already examined the handkerchief for Doctor Sun. There's indeed poison on it, and it's just like Blue Tide's."

The things that Lu Zihao had investigated had greatly overturned Xiao Yunyi's opinion of Mu Yaran.

Xiao Yunyi knew that the Mu family's daughter wouldn't be as naive and innocent as she usually pretended to be, but he didn't expect her scheming mind to be so deep.

If it wasn't for Lu Zihao's timely investigation, there wouldn't have been any evidence, and no one would have known that Mu Yaran was the one who did it.

Of course, if Lan Xi died from the poison, then her plan would succeed.

He looked at the video footage of the incident that was captured by Lu Zihao on the computer, his eyes dark and unreadable. He knew that Mu Yaran had always been secretly dealing with the girls that were related to him, but he had never done so.

Firstly, those women really wanted too much, surpassing their duty. Secondly, he was too lazy to manage these matters. If she was willing to step out, he would let her settle it. However, she didn't expect that she would have the guts to extend her hand onto Lan Xi's body.

As Xiao Yunyi thought about this, the expression in his eyes suddenly changed.

Perhaps this wasn't just Mu Yaran's scheme; there was definitely someone backing her up. In this period of time, she should have seen through her attitude towards Lan Xi. She wouldn't act rashly against Lan Xi.

Xiao Yunyi could guess a thing or two from Mu Yaran's actions. On one hand, they were worried about her position here, and on the other hand, most likely, someone was hinting at her from the shadows.

As for this person … Xiao Yunyi sighed; he really didn't want to think about it.

He thought that he had made it clear enough, but it seemed that what he had said was his business, and listening or not was their business.
