Clinging to Devoted Fiancé, Heiress Slays the World!

Chapter 150: Chapter 150 Someone Wants to Harm Ji Yunli

Ji Wei looked at Mo Qian’s actions, feeling completely confused: "Is there something wrong with this tea?"

Mo Qian solemnly pinched a small amount of tea leaves between his fingers and held it out to Ji Wei: "Take a sniff."

Ji Wei leaned in curiously and took a whiff.

A faint, fragrant aroma of tea leaves—there didn’t seem to be anything unusual.

Seeing her perplexed expression, Mo Qian slowly began to speak: "Once, during negotiations in Southeast Asia, I encountered a similar situation. The other side attempted to mix a drug into my tea that could cause someone to fall unconscious. The scent of the drug was extremely subtle, and the average person would never have noticed. But my nose has always been more sensitive than others’ since childhood, and as soon as I picked up the teacup, I detected something off. That particular scent is identical to the one coming from this tin."

"Later, I learned that this type of drug is prohibited; it’s banned from being sold on the market and can likely only be obtained through the black market. Consuming small doses of the drug causes a person to fall into a deep sleep, unable to function. But if the dosage accumulates over time, it gradually weakens the internal organs. In severe cases, it can even jeopardize a person’s life."

Mo Qian’s words hit Ji Wei like a bolt of thunder!

She stared in disbelief at the tin of tea leaves, unable to comprehend why someone would want to harm Ji Yunli!

Ji Wei suddenly recalled that during her past life, when the Ji Family faced a bankruptcy crisis, her father’s health had abruptly collapsed, landing him in the intensive care unit multiple times.

At that time, her father was likely already drinking long-term adulterated tea, which caused his internal organs to deteriorate. Combined with the stress from the bankruptcy, he ultimately couldn’t hold on and fell apart.

Ji Wei’s eyes turned red as her entire body trembled uncontrollably from the extreme anger.

Mo Qian felt a pang of distress as he watched her, pulling her directly into his arms and softly comforting her: "Don’t worry. There’s still more than half left in this box of tea, which means Dad hasn’t been drinking it for long. We still have time."

Ji Wei’s body continued to tremble uncontrollably. The Ji Family she had once been so proud of, its warmth and happiness, now revealed itself to be full of hidden dangers. Someone wanted Ji Yunli dead. Just thinking about it turned her blood cold, filling her with lingering fear.

If not for her rebirth in this life, she might never have uncovered such a cruel truth in her entire existence.

Mo Qian could understand Ji Wei’s feelings at this moment. He didn’t say anything further. Instead, he held her trembling body tightly in his arms, hoping his warmth would help her calm down.

Ji Wei buried her face into the man’s broad chest, letting her tears fall silently, soaking into his shirt.

After a long while, Ji Wei finally lifted her head, her eyes red: "Mo Qian, I must find the person who drugged my father! I will never forgive them!"

"Alright, I’ll help you uncover who it is," Mo Qian replied. noveldrama

Once she had somewhat regained her composure, Ji Wei called for the family’s butler, Uncle Zhao.

"Uncle Zhao, you’ve been by my dad’s side the longest. Do you know if anyone’s been in my dad’s study lately?"

Uncle Zhao shook his head: "Mr. Ji’s study isn’t open to just anyone. Generally, you need Mr. Ji’s permission to enter."

No one had been there?

"Then did my dad buy this tea himself?" Ji Wei asked, picking up the tin of tea leaves.

Uncle Zhao examined the box closely and then suddenly slapped his forehead: "I remember now! Last weekend, Madam Yunxiang said someone gave her a tin of premium-grade Guanyin tea. Since she doesn’t drink tea, she decided to gift it to Mr. Ji instead. I recall Mr. Ji being thrilled and saying he’d savor it properly."

Actually, before Uncle Zhao spoke, Ji Wei had already faintly pieced the answer together in her mind.

She had simply held onto a shred of hope, clinging to the belief that Yunxiang wouldn’t be cruel enough to harm her own brother!

But unexpectedly, it truly was her!

Because of Shanshan, Yunxiang saw her as a thorn in her side, which Ji Wei could somewhat understand. But why would Ji Yunli, who constantly supported and protected his divorced, ostracized sister, have to face betrayal?

What kind of unspeakable secrets were buried beneath all this?
