Lu Jinnian stared at his assistant's message, feeling inexplicably nervous. He stared at the sleeping Qiao Anhao for a while, then turned around and walked out of the bedroom. He closed the door and went to the study room next door to give his assistant a call.
The assistant picked up quickly. He didn't say a word, and the assistant seemed to be used to his way of answering the phone, so he started to report to him. "Mr. Lu, I found a reliable university classmate to do the test. Originally, I could have given you the results the next day, but he went overseas and only came back yesterday. I went to look for him this afternoon."
"Yea," Lu Jinnian replied, indicating that he was listening.
The assistant didn't go straight to the point, but instead asked, "Mr. Lu, where did you get the bird's nest?"
Lu Jinnian furrowed his brows, a bad feeling rising in his heart.
The assistant remembered that night when Lu Jinnian asked him to check the bird's nest, he told him not to let the Xu family know, so he asked again, "Mr. Lu, did the Xu family give you the bird's nest?"
Lu Jinnian still didn't say a word.
The assistant seemed to be even more certain on the phone, and continued to ask, "Did Miss Qiao eat this bird's nest?"
When Lu Jinnian heard this, he was completely sure of his guess. His voice was calm, but there was a hint of nervousness and gloominess in it. "Was there sleeping pills in the bird's nest?"
This time, it was the assistant's turn to be silent. Lu Jinnian didn't rush him, he seemed to be waiting calmly. After a long while, the assistant said, "Mr. Lu, there were indeed sleeping pills in the eye sockets, and the dosage wasn't small. Also, the sleeping pills have calming effects, and if one takes too much, it will cause them to fall into a deep coma."
Lu Jinnian didn't have the ability to see through the truth with just one look. When Madam Chen had told him that Qiao Anhao had brought the bird's nest home from the set, he had suspected it, so he had gone to test her. Rather than saying it was a suspicion, it was more like a hunch. Just like the night he and Qiao Anhao's child had left, he had been feeling uneasy, so he had returned to Mian Xiu Garden.
Because he had that intuition, he asked his assistant to investigate.
He thought that his assistant would give him the results the next day, but who knew that it would drag on for so many days, and he didn't rush it. In other words, he already knew the truth, but he wasn't mentally prepared to face it.
However, in the end, the result was still the same. Just as he had guessed, the bird's nest was spiked with sleeping pills.
Sleeping pills …
Lu Jinnian's fingers started to tremble violently. He pursed his lips tightly, unable to say a word.
Lu Jinnian's eyes turned bloodshot. Between his brows, there was a sense of viciousness and pain. In the end, his breathing quickened. He gritted his teeth and spat out the words one by one. "She killed my child..."
The assistant was still chattering on when he suddenly heard Lu Jinnian's words. He couldn't hear them clearly, but he could feel a strong murderous aura coming from the other side of the phone. He shuddered and instinctively called out, "Mr. Lu?"
