A second chance with my billionaire husband-Chapter 1576 - 311: Powerless, Beyond the Help of Medicine (Part 2)
"But..." Yan Guobai stammered for a long time without being able to say anything.
"You’ve been so reckless lately. Anyway, I can’t control you, but you need to be mindful of your identity. The Yan Family is currently supported by Lao San. If Lao San falls, none of us in the Yan Family will escape, and we’ll end up like the Boss. Take care of yourself."
With that, he turned around and walked inside, leaving Yan Guobai standing there in a daze.
"Yun Ya, how is it?"
Yun Ya furrowed her brow, switched to the other hand; the pulse was normal, but why was the person still unconscious?
Yun Ya checked again; all the organs were normal.
Standing up, she walked around the room. Seeing her solemn expression, Zhuang Xiyue wanted to ask but held back, and the others remained silent, not daring to breathe.
Finally, Yun Ya’s gaze fell on a plant by the window, its slender green leaves vibrant and lush.
Yun Ya stirred the soil with her fingers, sniffed it at her nose, then brushed her fingers against a leaf.
Though Yun Ya’s actions seemed puzzling, her eyes subtly observed everyone in the opposite crowd.
Finally... a knowing smile tugged at the corner of her mouth, and she withdrew her hand.
"What’s really happening with Grandpa? Yun Ya, could you give us something certain? Otherwise, my heart is all over the place, it’s just..." Meng Shujing sighed heavily, her face melancholic, showing her concern and distress for the old man.
Yun Ya shook her head: "I’m afraid I truly can’t do anything this time..."
Zhuang Xiyue abruptly stepped back, turning pale: "Grandpa..."
The others also looked sorrowful.
Yan Song held a handkerchief, gently wiping the dirt off Yun Ya’s fingers.
"Aren’t you Dr. Nyx? Aren’t you really skilled? Why can’t you save Great Grandpa now? You’re just a fraud..." Yan Sheng suddenly pointed at Yun Ya, cursing.
Yan Song’s icy gaze swept over, causing Yan Sheng to shrink back in fear, that look was as if it could kill.
"And what about you? What have you done for Great Grandpa? What right do you have to accuse Yun Ya? Apologize." Yan Song’s voice was icy cold.
Yan Sheng bit his lip: "Why should I?"
Yan Song’s eyes narrowed dangerously.
Yan Sheng was afraid of Yan Song, but couldn’t bring himself to back down, causing the atmosphere to be somewhat tense.
"Forget it, Brother Yan, it’s not worth losing our composure over a child..." Yun Ya tugged at Yan Song’s sleeve, whispering.
This made Yan Sheng seem like an uneducated brat. Yan Sheng, having lost his parents overnight and no longer having protection in this family, was usually pitied and taken care of by everyone. But now, this behavior was like a replica of his grandpa. 𝐟𝚛𝕖𝚎𝕨𝗲𝐛𝚗𝐨𝐯𝐞𝕝.𝐜𝗼𝗺
Yan Sheng’s cheeks flushed bright red, his fists clenched tightly as he turned around and ran out.
Yun Ya smirked, this child really needed a lesson.
Yan Sheng ran back to his room and lay on the bed, crying. Now, in this house, anyone could bully him. What was Ji Yunya anyway? She hadn’t even entered the Yan family, yet dared to speak to him like this.
With his father gone and his grandmother deceased, he had no status left in this household. Thinking of his future, darkness clouded his vision.
Suddenly, he felt an itch on his back, raised a hand to scratch it, but the more he scratched, the itchier it got, like ants were biting him. He scratched harder, sighing in contentment, but then another wave of itch attacked, forcing him to scratch harder and harder, until a mixture of pain and itch made him so uncomfortable he rubbed against the wall.
He suffered like this, sitting on the ground exhausted. When he touched his back, he felt a sticky wetness. Looking at it with trembling hands, he nearly fainted.
His hands were covered in blood.
Then, the itch on his back started spreading to his thighs, as if countless ants were gnawing at his skin. He was rolling on the ground, unable to stop, scratching despite the blood...
——
Thinking of Yan Sheng’s miserable state now, Yun Ya felt a sense of satisfaction.
Brat, I can’t be bothered arguing with you, but here’s a lesson for you. In the future, remember to think before you speak, not everyone is as easygoing as your sister.
Her master had taught her some poison formulas, but she rarely used them. Now she had to pick them back up. She didn’t expect the itching powder to work so well.
Just a little contact would make you itch enough to doubt the world, and you wouldn’t stop until your body was scratched and bleeding. The antidote was simple, just a few drops of white vinegar in bath water, soaking for half an hour would do.
"Yun Ya, how’s Great Grandpa’s health really?" Yan Song asked anxiously as soon as they returned to the room.
Yun Ya took a sip of water to clear her throat before saying, "Grandpa is actually poisoned."
"Poisoned?" Yan Song’s eyes darkened, his face turning terrifying in an instant.
Yun Ya nodded: "Yes, poisoned, but the poisoner is very skilled...." Thinking of something, Yun Ya furrowed her brow slightly and said, "The person might not actually want Great Grandpa dead... I was wrong."
Yan Song frowned at Yun Ya.
Yun Ya’s eyes narrowed slightly, "Let’s see what kind of trickery they have in store."
——
The Yan Family had been surrounded by a somber atmosphere recently.
Elder Yan was beyond medical help and didn’t have much time left, and the Yan Family was even preparing for his funeral.
Qiaoyin hurried in: "Madam, Miss Ji is here."
"Crash" The teacup suddenly fell to the ground, the porcelain cup smashing into pieces. Meng Shujing realized and immediately squatted down to pick it up.
Yun Ya walked in, lifting her skirt, smiling: "Auntie, what’s wrong?"
"Yun Ya is here...." Meng Shujing stood up as Qiaoyin quickly came over to pick up the broken porcelain.
Yun Ya raised an eyebrow, sat down, and asked, "Where’s Big Sister? I haven’t seen her in days; I came to check her pulse."
"Unfortunately, she’s visiting a friend. I’ll have her come see you when she returns...."
"Oh, so Big Sister is out, seems I came at the wrong time." Yun Ya shook her head.
"Since you’re here, stay for a bit before you leave. Qiaoyin, make some tea and bring out my treasured Great Red Robe." Meng Shujing instructed.
"Yes." Qiaoyin immediately withdrew.
Yun Ya glanced around and asked, "Where’s Xuanxuan? I haven’t seen her."
Meng Shujing smiled: "Xuanxuan is currently staying at a friend’s house with Jinjin. We’ll bring her back in a few days."
"Oh? Is that so? The child is so young, living at someone else’s house must be inconvenient. Big Sister is really willing...."
Meng Shujing’s eyes flickered, smiling wryly: "Isn’t it? I’ve told Jinjin several times, but she’s so careless, doesn’t even think about her own child...."
Yun Ya glanced at Meng Shujing and suddenly sighed: "With Great Grandpa in his current state, I just hate that I’m powerless...."
Meng Shujing held her hand, comforting: "Don’t put too much pressure on yourself, you’ve done your best, Grandpa wouldn’t blame you...."
Yun Ya’s eyes reddened slightly: "I just think about Great Grandpa’s limited time...and how good he is to me, it makes me feel so terrible...."
