Yun Xi stuffed rice into her mouth with a heavy taste. The complex network of relationships around Qin Mufeng made her feel uneasy.

It is one thing that she likes Qin Mufeng and wants to be with him, but her pride and principles do not allow her to do so.

She couldn't deny that she had been completely attracted to him in the past three months, but this did not prevent her from making the decision to divorce him.

Her heart was sour and astringent, making her unable to breathe.

She didn't remember a word of what everyone said next.

It was a feast to welcome the wind, and everyone had their own thoughts and did not enjoy the meal to the fullest.

During this period, all kinds of temptations and calculations made Qin Mufeng lose his appetite.

However, all this is not the most important thing to him. He now wants to know Yun Xi's attitude towards him.

Originally, he was 80% sure that he would stay when he came back this time, but now that he was making such a fuss, he felt really unsure.

After finally sending Bai Chen brother and sister away with a smooth fake smile, he didn't want to wait any longer.

"Xi'er, you"

"I'm too tired and want to rest first."

After Yun Xi finished speaking, she walked away minding her own business, ignoring Qin Mufeng's calls from behind.

She knew what he wanted to say, it wasn't that she couldn't bear to leave and deliberately delayed the time.

She was really tired and didn't want to bid farewell to him in the middle of the night.

Now that I have made up my mind to divorce, it would be better to stay overnight.

She knew that the other party wouldn't let her go easily, so why bother making a fuss now?

Qin Mufeng looked at Yun Xi's cold and arrogant back, and felt increasingly uncertain.

The other party clearly didn't want to communicate with me, and I was afraid that pursuing her would only make her even more unhappy.

It's better to comply with her wishes and talk about it tomorrow.

However, what Qin Mufeng never expected was that it was not that she was angry and didn't want to talk to him, but that she had already made a decision and didn't want to talk to him at all.

Early the next morning, he was in a hurry to go to the palace to return to his life, but he didn't call her when he saw that she was still asleep.

He got out of bed quietly, and before leaving, he helped her tuck in the quilt.

What Qin Mufeng didn't know was that she woke up long before he woke up.

To be precise, Yun Xi didn't sleep much that night.

It is not that easy to cut off a mutually beneficial relationship with your own hands.

What's more, there was another thing weighing on her heart.

The only thing she can be sure of is that she is indeed related to Bai Chen by blood, and the best proof is that her heart blood detoxified the poison of Bai Chen's Seventh Life and Three Life Flowers.

But Bai Shuang looks so much like Bai Chen, and they even have the Bai family's exclusive longevity lock.

She looked carefully at the dinner table yesterday, and it was exactly the same as the one in her hand.

Yun Xi lay on the bed for a while, thinking that Qin Mufeng should leave completely, and then got up to pack her things.

I didn't even eat breakfast, so I took my little baggage back to Yun's house.

"Grandma, I'm back."

She bypassed Father Yun who was lying in the yard and went straight to Mrs. Yun's room.

It happened that the stepmother came out wearing an apron and holding the finished dishes in her hands.

"Xiao Xi, why are you back so early? Have you eaten?"

"Mom, you should take a rest now. My sister is the eldest mistress of the Hou Mansion. Do you want to eat anything? Don't worry about it. Get me some money quickly. I'll go out and do some business."

Before Yun Xi had time to speak to her stepmother, the sound of Yun Hu demanding a beating came from behind her.

"Go away! Do you think I don't know your urinary nature? You are a dog and can't change your habit of eating shit. Are you still doing business?"

"Your main business is to go out and gamble. I won't give you even a cent. It's up to you to make the money yourself. Bah!"

When Yun Xi heard her stepmother's confident response, she felt a strange feeling in her heart.

This feeling is strange, but it is impossible to ignore.

"Sister, sister, come in quickly, Longlong misses her."

Yunlong's silly voice came from behind his stepmother.

Yun Xi put aside the weirdness in her heart and smiled at him.

"Xi'er misses big brother too. Can I take you to buy roasted sweet potatoes later?"

"Oh! Oh! Great, great, Longlong wants to buy two roasted sweet potatoes. Hehehe..."

Yunlong smirked, and his stepmother glanced at him angrily. She turned to Yun Xi and said sternly: "Xiao Xi, you can't spoil him too much."

"You don't even know that since you left, he has been running out like crazy saying that he wants to find you to buy him baked sweet potatoes. I can't even chase him back."

"You said he is a fool, how can he know the way home? He has been missing for almost three months, and my mother is so anxious that she fell ill."

"If I hadn't begged Mr. Yin of Jingzhao Prefecture, I might not have gotten it back by now!"

Yun Xi pretended to be surprised: "Grandma is sick?"

"No! So you can't spoil him anymore, you know? This time, I'm lucky to have a kind person to take him in and feed him. If it happens again, who knows what will happen?"

Yun Xi nodded: "I understand, mother, go ahead and do your work. I'll go see grandma."

"Mom, you are my mother, please give me some more money. I have learned a lot from my brother-in-law these past few months."

"Don't worry, I'm just doing some small business with others this time, definitely not gambling."

"What kind of business are you doing?"

As soon as Yunhu heard that there was a way out, he quickly took Yun's arm and continued to work hard to please.

Yunxi was about to remind her stepmother not to be fooled by him, but Yunlong suddenly gave her a wink.

There was a sudden feeling in her heart, and she had an inexplicable and ominous premonition.

Not daring to delay, she hurriedly followed Yunlong into the house and closed the door behind her back.

"Brother, what's wrong?"

"Yunshi has a problem."

When Yun Xi heard what he said, the weird feeling she had suppressed before became even stronger.

Before she could ask in detail, Yunlong spoke again: "Go and see grandma first. I think her illness is a little strange."

"Grandma has always had a strong body. She knows that I came to see you."

The implication is that it is impossible for the old lady to get angry or even fall ill because he was lost.

There is definitely some concern, but it is definitely not serious enough to make you sick.

Yun Xi panicked and hurried into the back room.

Old Mrs. Yun's eyes were dull and she was as skinny as a stick. She lay on the kang and stared at the roof in a daze.

Her heart skipped a beat, no wonder she felt that her stepmother was a little bolder than usual and dared to yell at her mistress's door.

"Grandma, what's wrong with you?"

"Don't ask. My grandmother was already like this when I came back seven days ago. She didn't say a word and looked at me as if I were a stranger."

"How could this happen?" Yun Xi asked subconsciously.

Without further delay, she hurriedly checked the old man's pulse.

However, as soon as her fingers touched the old lady's pulse, a surge of anger rushed directly to Tianling Gaier from the bottom of her heart.

Yunlong saw her expression was not good and asked worriedly: "What's wrong?"

Yun Xi's face was as cold as ice, and her words were filled with frost: "Grandma has been poisoned."
