Chapter 16 Vicious Fake Gold 15

Upon hearing this, the physician hesitated, as if he wanted to speak but then stopped. His indecisiveness made Madam Ji's heart skip a beat, and she asked with some concern, "What's wrong? Is it not working?"

The physician shook his head, sighed, and said, "This matter is a bit complicated. Madam, there's no need to jump to conclusions and blame the Second Miss too soon. Why don't we wait until Master returns, and then I'll explain everything to you in detail."

Although the family physician was just a doctor in the household, the Ji family had gone to great lengths to find him. His medical skills were excellent, and it was said that his master was a disciple of the legendary physician Song Jinnian. If it weren't for the promises made by Ji's father and the favors he had to do, they probably wouldn't have been able to hire him.

Upon hearing the physician's words, Madam Ji finally calmed down.

"I acted impulsively." Madam Ji let out a breath, her face less angry, but she still couldn't be kind to Ji Qingwei. Especially seeing the latter's silence, Madam Ji couldn't help but ask, "Where did you get this medicinal cuisine?"

"Qingwei, you are my daughter, and Qingyu is also my daughter. Don't fight and argue. I will treat you both equally and will not mistreat you."

Ji's mother tried to persuade Ji Qingwei with these words, but the latter only looked up at Qingyu with a complicated expression, and then said, "I also want to wait for Father and my eldest brother to come back."

Then he remained silent again.

Madam Ji could only sigh helplessly. Fortunately, Qingyu was happy to see this happen and took the initiative to say, "Mother, I'm fine. Qingwei didn't do it on purpose anyway. Let's wait for Father to come back before we talk about it."

Qingyu has already achieved half of her goal; she wants to expose everything. In the story, the original owner was only discovered to be poisoned later, and Qingyu probably thinks it's because of Song Jinnian's medicine.

The medicine prematurely activated the toxins in Qingyu's body; otherwise, how could the skilled physician of the manor, who was not bad at medicine, not be able to detect it in the story?

The group fell silent, and Madam Ji had already sent a maid to inform Father Ji.

While waiting, Mrs. Ji wiped away tears from time to time. When Mr. Ji returned, he was immediately startled to see Mrs. Ji's red eyes and hurriedly asked, "Why are you crying? Did something happen to Qingyu?!"

"What happened to Qingyu?" Ji Qingying, who followed closely behind, asked urgently, her steps hurried. She was about to go in to check when Ji Qingbao, who had come up beside her, quickly stopped her. "Brother, this is a woman's private room. Mother said..."

"Why worry about so much now?!" Ji Qingying interrupted Ji Qingbao, shook off the latter, and strode inside.

Ji's mother looked worried, but did not stop it. Seeing this, Ji Qingbao pouted and felt even more that she was adopted.

"Qingyu felt unwell after eating the food Qingwei brought. I asked the family physician, but he insisted on waiting for you to return before saying anything," said Madam Ji as she led Father Ji inside.

Having learned in advance that they were coming, Qingyu had already instructed Fuqin to tidy up any inappropriate items, while she herself lay on her side on the small couch.

Therefore, when Ji Qingying entered, she saw a pale, bloodless girl lying weakly on the small couch.

At that moment, Ji Qingying's heart skipped a beat—she was so frightened that she was speechless.

After a moment, he regained some of his composure, his throat bobbing, his eyes filled with heartache, "Qingyu... how are you?"

Before Qingyu could answer, he looked at Ji Qingwei beside him.

Even before he rushed back, he had heard that Qingyu was in this state because she had drunk Qingwei's medicinal food. Now, seeing Ji Qingwei's absent-minded appearance, Ji Qingying felt a surge of anger, "Ji Qingwei! What have you done?!"

The loud rebuke brought Ji Qingwei back to her senses. She looked up and met Ji Qingying's angry eyes. She opened her mouth and said softly, "I didn't mean to."

Just then, Mr. and Mrs. Ji entered. They exchanged a glance, both looking very serious.

"Qingying, things aren't clear yet, calm down." Father Ji advised disapprovingly, then looked at the family physician and said in a deep voice, "Doctor, I'm here. What is it that you need to keep from everyone?"

Upon hearing this, the physician shook his head with a wry smile, "It's not that I want to hide it, but..."

His gaze fell on Qingyu, and he continued, "In fact, there is an extremely domineering and powerful toxin hidden in Miss's body. This toxin has been in Miss's body for at least ten years!"

"what!"

Ji's parents were shocked, and everyone else was stunned into silence. Only Qingyu subtly curled the corners of her lips, then immediately put on a panicked expression, tears falling as she choked back sobs.

"How could this be... So I shouldn't have been alive in the first place, right?"

"no!"

"will not!"

Two voices rang out simultaneously. Qingyu looked up with teary eyes, her beautiful face flushed from crying, adding a touch of sickly beauty.

The speakers were Ji Qingwei and Ji Qingying. Qingyu looked at the former gently, biting her red lips lightly, "Do you know something? That medicinal cuisine... you did it on purpose, didn't you?"

"I really didn't mean to hurt you." Ji Qingwei felt increasingly bitter. "I would rather hurt myself than hurt you."

"Then what's the deal with your medicinal cuisine?!" Father Ji asked in a deep voice, his suspicious gaze falling on Ji Qingwei.

The others also looked at Ji Qingwei with surprise and doubt, but she turned to the physician and said, "Doctor, can't you identify some of the medicinal ingredients in the medicinal cuisine? Now you can tell me."

The physician frowned, but stepped forward nonetheless, carefully smelling the medicine in the bowl. After a long while, he suddenly looked at Ji Qingwei and exclaimed in astonishment, "This is... the prescription of the divine physician Song Jinnian?!"

Upon hearing this, everyone was stunned again. Ji Qingying was the first to react and asked in confusion, "How can you be sure it's Song Jinnian's prescription? There are countless doctors in the world. Could it be that the medicine has a name written on it?"

Clearly, Ji Qingying did not believe it.

"That's not the case, Young Master. I am also half a disciple of Song Jinnian. As the sole successor of the former divine physician, he naturally inherited some of the former divine physician's medicinal habits..."

As the physician spoke, he glanced at Ji Qingwei, paused, and continued with a sigh, "My skills are inferior to others, and I can only smell most of the medicinal ingredients. However, I happened to smell a unique ingredient in this medicinal dish—snow lotus fruit. This is a medicinal herb that only Song Jinnian can grow, and its medicinal properties are completely in line with the practices of the divine physician."

"I just don't know how the Second Miss came to know Song Jinnian? Would you be so kind as to introduce us?"

As soon as the last word was uttered, the physician's attitude suddenly became much more respectful.

Ji Qingwei smiled apologetically and shook her head, "Jin Nian doesn't want to get involved with anyone else."

Upon hearing this, the physician was somewhat disappointed, but he didn't insist too much. Before leaving, he glanced at the weak Qingyu and reminded her, "If possible, the young lady's poison needs to be treated as soon as possible."

After saying that, he strode away.

Inside the room, everyone remained silent, each lost in their own thoughts.

Qingyu glanced at the group without showing any emotion, and made a judgment in her mind. She looked at Ji's mother with a serious expression and said timidly, "Mother... how could I have been born with poison? Could it be that I am Qingwei's adoptive parents...?"

She deliberately paused there, then looked at Ji Qingwei hesitantly, "It's my fault for taking your identity. Now I'm getting my comeuppance. Don't look down on me anymore."

Then Qingyu's tears fell silently, disappearing down her smooth face into her collar. Her face was filled with sorrow, and she looked so pitiful that everyone's hearts ached for her.

The system was stunned by Qingyu's actions and clapped in disbelief, saying, "You are so eloquent and charming; they are truly fortunate to have met you."

"Are you so gloating because you're jealous, System?" Qingyu replied in her mind in a coquettish voice. Her sweet and charming words made the system's data irritable, and it quickly shut up and stopped talking.
