Chapter 2323: Asking for Medicine

Editor: Atlas Studios

“I won’t be able to get the medicinal wine! Please let me go! Let my child go! What exactly did you feed him! He’s still a child! Are you even human!” Shao Yin hugged the boy and cried hysterically.

Huang Mian did not say anything but simply poured the remaining liquid from the bottle into Shao Yin’s mouth. Shao Yin immediately felt some pain in her stomach. She held her stomach with one arm and hugged the child with her other arm as she knelt on the ground in agony.

“You need eight bottles of medicinal wine now. This is the only way to save you and your child. You only have three hours so time is tight. If you don’t set off now, both you and your child will die,” Huang Zhong said casually.

“Aren’t you afraid of retribution…” Shao Yin said through the pain.

“Us? We’re people who are about to die, so why should we be afraid of doing this? Besides, there’s nothing too bad about having members of the Xia family accompanying us in death,” Huang Mian said, feeling no shame at all.

Shao Yin forced herself to get up and carried the child to the brick bed to settle him down. She did a check to make sure that the child was still breathing and rushed out of the house after that. At this moment, Qiao Mei and the rest of the family were at the manor. Fortunately, her house was not too far from there. Otherwise, she would not be able to make the return trip within three hours.

Shao Yin did not allow herself to be distracted as she rode the bicycle. Although she fell down several times, she did not dare to stop to take a rest. To her, every minute she wasted was another minute that her child was in danger and it made her scared.

She suddenly realized that she did not detest and hate Qiao Mei as much as she had thought she did. All she wanted to do now was to kill Huang Mian and Huang Zhong! If her child and her could not survive this ordeal, she hoped that the Xia family would kill everyone in the Huang family to avenge the two of them!

Shao Yin finally made it to Qiao Mei’s manor after much difficulty, but she was stopped at the door by the security guard.

“Hey! Who are you! This is a private manor! You can’t just enter as you wish!” the security guard said sharply.

“I… I’m looking for Qiao Mei… I’m looking for Xia Wen… Save me… Save my child…” Before she could finish speaking, Shao Yin collapsed to the ground and spat out a mouthful of blood.

The security guard was shocked by what happened and immediately made a call to Qiao Mei. At this moment, Qiao Mei and the rest were having dinner together inside the house. When they heard the news, everyone was shocked. Qiao Mei immediately told the security guard to carry Shao Yin in.

“What’s wrong with you? Who did you run into?” Xia Wan asked Shao Yin in surprise.

“Medicine… I beg you… the medicine…” Shao Yin crouched on the floor and used all her strength to raise her head to look at Qiao Mei.

Qiao Mei squatted down to take a look at Shao Yin. She realized that Shao Yin had really been poisoned and was not just telling lies to cheat her. However, the fact that Shao Yin had asked her so directly for the medicinal wine made her feel upset to have to give it away just like that. This was also a form of “emotional blackmail”, was it not?

Seeing that Qiao Mei was still hesitating, Shao Yin quickly knelt down and kowtowed to her. As Shao Yin kowtowed, she said, “My child… save us… I beg you… save me… and… my child…”

“Your child? You and Xia Hai are both poisoned?” Xia Wen immediately walked forward to hold Shao Yin up and asked her.

“Medicine… the child… save the child…” At this moment, Shao Yin was no longer making any sense and her eyes had already lost focus. It was now that Qiao Mei realized that both mother and son might have been targeted and poisoned by someone.

“What kind of poison is it? What kind of medicine do you need? Do we have it in the manor?” Xia Wan said anxiously.

“I don’t know… I don’t know…” Shao Yin said as she looked at the security guard standing beside her.

Xia Wen immediately realized that this matter could involve anyone. He glanced at Qiao Mei and she immediately understood what he meant. She waved her hand and asked everyone who was not a Xia family member to leave the room. fɾeeweɓnѳveɭ.com

“You can talk now. Everyone here is one of us,” Qiao Mei said.

Shao Yin took a deep breath and used all her strength to speak. “It’s the Huang family members who broke into my house and poisoned me and my child! They want me to get the medicinal wine to exchange for the antidote! My child is also poisoned! If I don’t get back in three hours, he will die!”

After saying that, Shao Yin started vomiting big mouthfuls of blood. The blood was black in color and Xia Wan hid behind Xia He in fear. This was the first time Xia Wan had ever seen such a scene.

“How much do they want?” Qiao Mei asked.

“Six bottles… not including what my child and I need…” Shao Yin said.

“How audacious. Other people only dare to ask to buy one bottle at a time, but they actually dare to ask for six bottles!” Xia He said in disgust.

Shao Yin gradually fell silent. Qiao Mei immediately took out her pendant, the one which contained golden ginseng juice, and hurriedly put one drop into Shao Yin’s mouth.

Although Shao Yin was not a good person, she was still the Xia family’s daughter-in-law. In addition, Shao Yin just had a lousy character and had never thought of harming Qiao Mei and her family. Therefore, Qiao Mei was still willing to save her life.
