Ji Yifeng?
Qin Min never thought that Qin Jie would bring up this old and rotten grain matter.
Who was Ji Yifeng?
Ji Yifeng was the eldest son of the Ji family and the only heir to the Ji family head position. Although the Ji family couldn't be compared to the Qin and Ren families, their power couldn't be underestimated. Back then, in order to have a marriage alliance with the Ji family, her father didn't hesitate.
Her father originally hoped that she could marry Ji Yifeng, but later on, her legs were crippled. After her father's efforts, Ji Yifeng married her younger sister, the Qin Jie in front of her.
When they were young, Ji Yifeng's children often came to the Qin family to joke, whether it was a joke or a serious one. That was because he was young and ignorant of the ways of the world. If Qin Jie didn't mention it, Qin Min really didn't remember that she had once said that she wanted to marry Ji Yifeng.
Qin Jie actually remembered this sentence? What was Qin Jie's motive for suddenly coming to talk to her about this today?
"I remember?" Qin Min replied calmly, "I also said that I want to marry the young master of the Ren family. I also said that I want to marry Gu Xiaoqi. Do you remember?"
"Hehe, why don't I remember?" Qin Jie asked with a smile, not knowing if she was serious or joking.
"That's because your memory is bad." Qin Min replied jokingly. She was secretly on guard, feeling that Qin Jie didn't come here with good intentions.
At this time, Shaoyao served two cups of tea, and Qin Jie quickly stood up to receive it.
"Aiyo, Second Miss, quickly sit down. This servant can serve you." Shaoyao quickly said.
Qin Jie personally served a cup of tea to Qin Min, "Not everyone has the opportunity to serve tea to the principal's wife. Shaoyao, you can leave. I'll take care of him here. "
"Why are you being so polite?" Qin Min asked.
Qin Jie placed the other cup of tea beside her table, but she didn't sit down. Instead, she suddenly knelt down, "Sister, if you want Ji Yifeng, I'll return him to you. As long as you're willing to help my younger brother, don't mention me, even if you want my life, I'll give it to you! "Qin Jie choked out.
Qin Min was really frightened. Her first reaction was that Qin Jie had been bewitched? She knew too well how selfish and utilitarian her younger sister was. If her younger brother could compete for the position of Family Head, it would be beneficial to her. After all, if she wanted to gain a foothold in the Ji Family and become the future Family Head, she would need a strong maternal family to support her.
But even so, she didn't need to sacrifice herself like this, right?
Qin Min knew that Qin Jie was here to find trouble, but after Qin Jie made such a scene, she was really at a loss.
She said seriously, "Qin Jie, why would I want your husband? You think too highly of your husband! If you don't give me a clear explanation today, don't even think about leaving my door! "
Even Qin Min herself found her words laughable. If news of what happened today were to spread, people who didn't know would think that she was holding a grudge against her father because she couldn't get a man from the Qin family. That was why she didn't come back to help her brother!
This big hat could really crush people to death.
"Sister …" Qin Jie held a handkerchief and pretended to wipe her tears. She secretly glanced at the teacup on the table and choked out, "Sister, it's useless to say more. How can you forgive father and me? I know that back then, father gave me everything that should have belonged to you, and you've always held a grudge in your heart. I can repay all these debts to you. But, her brother was innocent! Our Qin family is also innocent! If Second Uncle obtains the position of Family Head and takes control of the ancestral medical books, then … then what will happen to Brother? What will happen to father in prison? Sister … "
Qin Jie kept talking, and Qin Min was getting impatient. She casually broke the teacup, brushed away the tea leaves on the tea, and gently blew on it. She didn't intend to pay attention to her and let Qin Jie continue talking. She wanted to hear how long Qin Jie could talk!
Seeing this, Qin Min picked up the tea, and joy flashed across Qin Jie's eyes. But who knew that just as Qin Min was about to speak, a sharp sound suddenly came from the side. "Squeak …"
Eh?
Little thing?
Qin Min put down the blanket and looked in the direction of the sound.
Qin Jie was stunned. She didn't even care if Qin Min drank the tea and suddenly screamed, "Ah … there's a rat!"
There were many people who were crazy about rats, and Qin Jie was one of them.
Just as Qin Jie screamed, Little Thing flew in from the window and jumped onto the tea table. It stood in front of Qin Min's teacup and pointed at the teacup with both hands, anxiously squeaking at Qin Min.
Qin Min wasn't familiar with Little Thing, but no matter how stupid she was, she could tell that Little Thing was telling her that there was a problem with this cup of tea!
"Tea?" Shaoyao muttered to herself.
Qin Min immediately looked at Qin Jie. At this moment, Qin Jie was staring at Little Thing and realized that it wasn't a rat that was squeaking, but a squirrel.
Just like this, Qin Min looked at Qin Jie, and Qin Jie looked at Little Thing. Little Thing's gaze moved back and forth between Qin Min and Qin Jie. Little Thing stopped squeaking, and the huge house suddenly quieted down.
Time passed very slowly, as if it was slower than everyone's heartbeat.
Gradually, Qin Jie's face revealed a look of fear, and Qin Min slowly narrowed her eyes. Both of them had a tacit understanding that there was a problem with this cup of tea.
At this moment, Shaoyao thought it through and suddenly shouted, "Miss, there's a problem with that cup of tea!"
Qin Jie immediately pounced over to snatch that cup of tea. Qin Min was stunned at first, but she also reached out. However, both of them were not as fast as Little Thing. Little Thing suddenly picked up the teacup and jumped to the side.
It propped both hands on the cup and lay down, staring at Qin Min and Qin Jie with wide eyes. That gaze was as ferocious as it could be. It was clearly warning them not to snatch it!
Seeing that Qin Min and Qin Jie didn't move, Little Thing hurriedly lowered its head and took a big sip of tea. However, the tea was too hot, and it immediately spat it out. As it blew, it was wary of Qin Min and Qin Jie. That sneaky and cautious look was especially funny. However, whether it was Qin Min, Qin Jie, or Shaoyao, they couldn't laugh.
This was because Qin Min and Shaoyao both knew that Little Thing's favorite food was poison! Unless it was a very delicious food, Little Thing wouldn't care about it.
The cup of tea that Shaoyao brewed was just ordinary black tea. How could Little Thing fight over it? There was no doubt that this tea was poisoned! And highly toxic at that!
Qin Jie finally realized that the little squirrel in front of her was the poison beast that had been sitting on the headmaster's shoulder all day long!
"There's poison in the tea! You poisoned it! "
This time, it was Qin Min herself who spoke. Shaoyao couldn't have poisoned it. Qin Jie had just drunk that cup of tea, so she was the one who poisoned it!
"I didn't!" Qin Jie immediately denied it.
"You poisoned it with lethal poison! Where did you get it from? "Qin Min demanded angrily.
The only thing that could make Little Thing so anxious was lethal poison, and a very rare one at that. If it was any ordinary poison, Little Thing would've kicked it over long ago.
Ever since the Poison Sect was rehabilitated and Hundred Poisons Sect was taken over by the empress, ordinary poisons were hard to buy, to say nothing of a lethal poison like this. Even the Three-Way Black Market only sold ordinary poisons.
Qin Min had a very bad premonition, but she didn't dare make any guesses.
Qin Jie was extremely flustered. She stood up and pointed at Shaoyao. "It was her, she brewed the tea! She poisoned it! I don't know anything! "
Qin Min made a prompt decision. "Shaoyao, go and find the son-in-law!"
Shaoyao immediately ran out, but the guilty Qin Jie couldn't take it anymore and pulled her back. "You're not allowed to go!"
Shaoyao struggled free. As a servant girl, she was naturally stronger than a noble young miss. She shook off Qin Jie's hand and ran out.
Qin Jie immediately chased after her, but she stopped at the door. A moment later, she turned back into the room and closed the door behind her.
Qin Min sat in her wheelchair, looking at her with Cold eyes, her expression cruel.
"Qin Min, since you're so heartless, don't blame me for disowning you as my sister!"
As she spoke, she walked towards Qin Min step by step. Qin Min was extremely shocked. She did not expect her own sister to be so vicious.
Qin Min reflexively tried to push the wheelchair, but Qin Jie rushed over and tried to strangle Qin Min. But at the same time, Little Thing jumped onto Qin Min's head and glared at Qin Jie. Forced into a corner, Qin Jie finally remembered that Little Thing was nearby. She froze, her hands hovering in midair.
"Squeak …"
Lil Thing pounced on Qin Jie's face and scratched wildly with its claws!
She dared to poison the gentleman's partner?
She dared to kill the gentleman's partner!
This was unforgivable!
After all, aside from Mama Yunxi, it only had room for Qin Min to follow the gentleman!
It didn't know what this woman had to do with the Qin Clan, much less her relationship with Qin Min. In any case, it wouldn't forgive her.
"Ah … .ah … .save me! Save me! "
Qin Jie screamed in fright as she clawed at Lil Thing, but couldn't pry it free. That was because Lil Thing's claws were already digging into her flesh.
There was a loud bang as the door was kicked open.
A gust of wind blew past before Gu Beiyue landed in front of Qin Min. "Qin Min, are you alright?"
Qin Min gave a start. She didn't know why, but his sudden appearance made her feel like she was dreaming. It didn't feel real at all.
How could he get here so quickly?
Shaoyao had just left. No matter how fast he was, Shaoyao had to send word before he could get here! The Qin Clan was quite a distance from the medical academy, so Shaoyao couldn't have run there so quickly.
Very soon, Shaoyao caught up as well. She was about to speak when she saw the young master standing in front of her young miss and relaxed.
She'd just reached the courtyard when the young master suddenly appeared to ask her what had happened. If she guessed correctly, the young master had been hiding in the Qin Clan this entire time. She knew it, how could the young master really leave her young miss here alone?
"Are you alright?" Gu Beiyue asked seriously.
Qin Min looked at Shaoyao before her gaze returned to Gu Beiyue's face. She couldn't help muttering, "Gu Beiyue, you … didn't leave?"
A complicated look flitted past Gu Beiyue's eyes before he unconsciously backed away.
He didn't answer Qin Min's question, but looked at Qin Jie, who was still struggling on the side. Knitting his brows, he said, "Lil Thing, don't be so impudent!"
Only then did Lil Thing release Qin Jie and jump back onto the tea table. It pointed at the cup of tea and squeaked at Gu Beiyue.
Gu Beiyue's expression was serious. "Qin-"
He had only said one word when Qin Min interrupted, "Husband!"
