This time, Gu Qingxue agreed without hesitation. Her clear black and white eyes emitted a cold, bloodthirsty light. “The Qi family.”
She almost squeezed out these two words from the gaps between her teeth. She could not think of a better suspect other than the Qi family for someone who was blood-related to her grandmother and could do such a thing.
After all, there were only a handful of people in this world who were blood-related to her grandmother, and there were even fewer people who were very close to her.
She and Gu Chengbin were the only ones left in the Gu family. However, Gu
Chengbin was not born yet when her grandmother became muddle-headed. Moreover, the most important thing was that Madam Kou was already out of suspicion. Otherwise, she would not have felt at ease letting Gu Qingxue take her grandmother to Dafu Village.
Other than the Gu family, there were only the Qi family left.
Just realizing this made Gu Qingxue feel a sharp pain in her heart.
Who would have thought that in the end, the people who had set her grandmother up would be the people who her grandmother had once valued the most?
Just thinking about it made Gu Qingxue feel that it was very funny.
As expected, the Qi family was an ingrate. They had completely forgotten that their family’s glory was all thanks to her grandmother!
Seeing Gu Qingxue’s cold expression, Wen Jiang also felt that something was wrong. He raised his brows and said, “l remember that your grandmother was a member of the Qi family. Are you suspecting that it was her own family that harmed her?”
Gu Qingxue nodded. She raised her hand to cover her eyes and gritted her teeth in anger.
She only thought about how the Qi family had let her grandmother down and now a strong impulse rose in her. She wanted to turn the Qi family into ashes and ask them how those heartless things could forget her grandmother’s so many years of sacrifice. Had their consciences been eaten enough?
Wen Jiang picked up the teapot and poured a cup of tea for Gu Qingxue. He then personally handed it to Gu Qingxue and consoled her, “Xue ‘er, don’t think too much. If they wanted to poison someone, they don’t need that many people, The Qi family might not be all bad people. Most of them probably didn’t know about it.’
Gu Qingxue took a deep breath and forced herself to calm down. “Master is right. I’ll investigate this matter. No matter who’s the one who’s harming my grandmother, I’ll make sure that person has to bear the consequences.”
“l will help you too. Even though there is no way to completely cure your grandmother’s Gu Poison if we can’t find the main culprit, but I still has a way to alleviate her pain and not let the poison worsen.” Wen Jiang saw that Gu Qingxue was not in a good mood, so he quickly consoled her.
As expected, Gu Qingxue’s eyes immediately lit up. She looked at Wen Jiang expectantly and asked, “Master, I have a presumptuous request. Master, didn’t you show me the drug to test for Gu Poison before? I wonder if there’s any similar things that would allow me to test the Qi family and see who’s the real culprit?”
Wen Jiang did not immediately agree, nor did he immediately refuse. He only muttered to himself for a moment before saying, “It’s not impossible, but the process is quite complicated, and I need you to help me develop it. During this period, I’m afraid I’ll have to take your grandmother’s blood a few times, so you have to be mentally prepared.”
The blood of Madam Qi contained Gu Poison, so they could only better understand the situation of Madam Qi by taking their blood..
