Hao Youran wants to see Mother He.
Hao Youran slowly raised her head and forced a smile at Qiao Qiao. "I didn't lie to you."
"Really?"
Upon hearing Hao Youran's reply, Qiao Qiao immediately heaved a sigh of relief and asked, "Then can you tell me who gave you the prescription?"
If the truth of this matter could be revealed, Mother He's misunderstanding of her would be resolved. Although they wouldn't immediately reconcile, at least Mother He wouldn't think that she intended to murder her son, right?
However, Hao Youran only opened her mouth and did not say a word. Under Qiao Qiao's trusting gaze, she averted her gaze and did not dare to meet her eyes.
Hao Youran's actions made Qiao Qiao's heart skip a beat. She held Hao Youran's cold hand tightly, and her heart beat faster. She asked with uncertainty, "Youran, we're best friends, right?"
Hao Youran nodded.
"So I believe that you won't harm me, and you definitely won't harm me, right?"
Hao Youran bit her lip and continued to nod.
Any normal person could tell that Hao Youran was acting strangely, but Qiao Qiao refused to believe it. She stubbornly believed that Hao Youran would not lie to her. "Youran, then can you tell me the truth? Who gave you this prescription?"
"That prescription …" Hao Youran's gaze drifted. She was stunned for a moment before she said, "Oh, the prescription was given to me by an aunt in my hometown."
"Really?"
"Yes, really." Hao Youran no longer dared to look at Qiao Qiao.
Qiao Qiao suddenly held her face and forced her to look into her eyes. "Youran, did you know? Not only did Shaochen's cold disease not get better, it even relapsed. That's because that prescription isn't a good medicine, but a poison that can kill people step by step. That auntie, did she really say that this prescription can cure the cold disease? "
Hao Youran's entire body trembled slightly, and tears suddenly flowed out of her eyes. "I'm sorry. I really didn't expect that prescription to harm Shaochen. I'm sorry. Can you let me calm down first? My thoughts are in a mess right now."
Hao Youran's mental state was unstable. At this moment, she was sobbing. She covered her face and cried loudly. Qiao Qiao couldn't bear it. She could only comfort her and let the doctor inject her with a tranquilizer.
By the time Hao Youran's emotions stabilized, she had already fallen into a deep sleep.
Qiao Qiao sighed and quietly closed the door.
He Shaochen had been standing outside the house for a while. When he saw Qiao Qiao's expression, he knew that she didn't get anything out of her. "How is it? I was right, wasn't I? "
Qiao Qiao glanced at him tiredly and asked suspiciously, "Did you ask someone to ask Youran before I met her?"
He Shaochen raised his eyebrows and didn't comment. "After all, the prescription came from her. It's not wrong for me to ask, right? But it's not my fault that she's mentally weak. When my people stopped her at the airport, she was already in that state. "
"What happened to Youran these days?" Qiao Qiao was worried and puzzled. "Didn't you say that Youran went on a trip with her boyfriend? Didn't you see her boyfriend when you found her? "
He Shaochen laughed as soon as she said that.
He curled his lips and said with a faint smile, "Don't you think it's strange? My people found Hao Youran as soon as she got off the plane, but her boyfriend was nowhere to be seen. It was as if he knew that we would find him from the beginning. "
"…"
After He Shaochen said that, something that wasn't strange at first became strange.
Hao Youran and her mysterious boyfriend had been together for more than half a year, right? But as her best friend, she had never seen her boyfriend. She felt that something wasn't right.
It was as if her boyfriend was consciously avoiding her.
Looking at He Shaochen's expression, it was obvious that he knew something. Hence, Qiao Qiao asked, "Do you already know the truth?"
He Shaochen raised his eyebrows. "Why do you ask?"
"Because your expression seems to be telling me that you know something." Qiao Qiao pursed her lips and told him the truth.
"Ha, you're thinking too much. I'm not as resourceful as you think." He Shaochen's handsome face had a faint smile.
He walked forward and stroked Qiao Qiao's soft hair. Then, he pulled her into his arms and said, "Anyway, as long as Hao Youran is back, it will prove that you didn't deliberately harm me. My mother will also be able to resolve her misunderstanding of you and treat you better."
"I hope so." Qiao Qiao sighed.
Although she said that, she was still a little flustered. She felt that things weren't as simple as they seemed.

In a private club.
Smoke lingered in the air, and the atmosphere was intoxicating.
The dancers wore revealing clothes and swayed their slender and soft waists on the steel pipes. They were enchanting and sexy, and it was enough to make one's imagination run wild.
A few men sat in the audience below, holding a sexy woman in each arm. They looked very unrestrained and happy.
One of them, a middle-aged man with amber-colored eyes and short, golden hair, looked at the handsome man in front of him and said, "Mr. He, you came back like this? Are you sure your nephew won't come looking for you to settle the score?"
At this time, He Shaoqiu was completely different from the serious and serious person he usually saw. He had a light look on his face. After kissing the woman beside him for a while, he smiled and said, "Why should I be afraid?"
The man shrugged. "After all, your girlfriend has been caught by the other party. What if she gives you up?"
The man's gaze was sincere, as if he was really worried about He Shao Qiu. Most people might believe him, but He Shao Qiu knew that this man was just afraid that his matter would be exposed and implicate him.
However, he didn't point it out. They were in a relationship where they used each other. It was fine as long as they didn't say anything.
"Don't worry about this. Hao Youran won't give me up." He said confidently.
"Oh? You're that confident? "
He Shao Qiu's smile deepened. He caressed the delicate skin of the woman beside him. Suddenly, he fiercely bit her shoulder, causing her to bleed. The woman gasped in pain and quickly struggled.
However, when she saw the other party's malicious gaze, she could only continue to tremble in his arms.
He Shao Qiu looked at the woman's shocked and fearful expression with satisfaction. He caressed her fearful face and smiled. "Women are very dependent, especially on their first man. It's always special."
That was true.
The man nodded in agreement. "You know quite a lot about women. You must have played a lot, right?"
"What's wrong with a man being a bit romantic?" He Shao Qiu was proud. He curled his lips and said, "Especially when the woman is pregnant with your child. It's even harder to get rid of you."
The man immediately understood He Shao Qiu's meaning. A sinister smile appeared on his face as he said, "That's right. After all, you are the father of the child. She can't possibly give you up on the father of her unborn child right?"
He Shao Qiu was drinking the wine the woman handed over. He drank a mouthful and then held the back of the woman's head. He poured the wine into her mouth until her face turned red and she began to struggle violently. Only then did he push her away.
He stood up and tidied up his slightly messy clothes. A sinister smile appeared on his face. "Even if she gives me up, it doesn't matter. After all, this is a society ruled by law. Everything needs evidence."
"Mr He Qiu is very cautious. It's admirable. No matter what that woman says, it won't affect you in the least."
"I'm just being cautious." He Shao Qiu had a "kind" smile on his face. He said leisurely, "As long as the medicine you gave is really effective, the main event is about to begin."
"Don't worry about that. He Shaochen will soon be affected by the cold disease. When the time comes, his Clan will be in danger. That will be the time for you to shine."
"Joe Qiao will also become the target of public criticism because of He Shaochen's illness. I believe that the woman you have been pursuing will also stand up for her. When the time comes, your chance will come."
The two men looked at each other and smiled.
Toasts were exchanged.
“cheers！”

Building 101.
He Shaochen Qiu was facing a mountain of documents. He had a headache and held his forehead.
When Ling Yu walked in, he saw that he was taking medicine.
"He Shao Qiu, the frequency of you taking medicine has increased." Ling Yu said worriedly.
"Yes, it's like this." He Shaochen Qiu's expression was indifferent. He kept the medicine bottle with him in case he needed it. Then, he asked, "What's the matter?"
"Oh, this is the quarterly profit statement from the branch office and the proposal for the new project."
"Put it aside."
"Yes."
He Shaochen Qiu rubbed his temples and began to work again. When Ling Yu turned around, he couldn't help but interrupt. "He Shao Qiu, are you really not going to tell Young Madam about your situation?"
He Shaochen Qiu looked up and glanced at Ling Yu. "Do your job well."
Ling Yu couldn't help but be startled. He quickly lowered his head. "I overstepped."
After that, he quickly left the CEO's office.
He Shaochen Qiu stared at the various reports and threw his pen on the table in annoyance. His hands unconsciously clenched into fists. After a while, he slowly loosened them. His face was slightly pale. He leaned against the back of the chair and smiled bitterly.
Sure enough, his body was still very cold.
Even though the sun was scorching outside, his body still felt like it was in an ice cellar. It was bone-chilling. It was as if he could freeze to death at any time.
How long could he last?
If Qiao Qiao knew about this, wouldn't she blame herself?
He Shaochen Qiu didn't want Qiao Qiao to worry about him until the last moment.
After a while, his phone suddenly rang. It was Qiao Qiao Qiu.
"Shaochen Qiu? I'm not interrupting your work by calling you now, right? "Qiao Qiao Qiu's voice had a hint of lightness and relaxation.
He Shaochen Qiao Qiao smiled helplessly and reminded her. "You're already interrupting my work when you ask this question."
