Chapter 649: Zuo Weiyi’s Intuition

Qiu Yun had always wanted her dead, so how could such a person be so willing to poison herself and commit suicide before her goal was achieved?

This was too illogical.

Her intuition told her that things might not be that simple.

If Qiu Yun wasn’t the mastermind, then who could it be?

Zuo Weiyi suddenly got gooseb.u.mps.

There really was someone out there who wanted to kill her and the children in her stomach! If that was the case, there was no way of safeguarding herself.

Xiangyi recalled Qiu Yun’s death.

“She said that she wanted to avenge her daughter and husband.”

Zuo Weiyi lowered her eyes slightly.

That could indeed be her motive for trying to kill her, but she still felt that things were not that simple.

“Young madam, the enemy is still hiding in the dark while we are standing out in the light. It is most difficult to protect oneself against hidden arrows. So during this period of time, it is best that you do not leave the house,” Xiangyi suggested. Tomorrow, he might have to send people over from s.h.i.+ Mansion. It was always good to strengthen the defenses.

“Yes, I know.” Zuo Weiyi smiled.

She turned to look at the clock on the wall. It was already 11:10 pm.

“It is getting late. You should rest early.” Zuo Weiyi stood up. Although danger lurked everywhere, fortunately, the security system here was very strong. She could at least feel a little more at ease at the villa.

“Madam.” At this moment, Xiao Cui suddenly spoke.

Zuo Weiyi turned towards her.

“Can I go to the hospital to see Xiao Song?” Xiao Cui’s heart was burning with anxiety as she kept thinking about Xiao Song in the hospital.

Zuo Weiyi did not answer. Instead, she turned towards Xiangyi.

Xiangyi immediately understood when he met her gaze.

He looked at Xiao Cui. “You can go tomorrow. Now that the matter has been exposed, and that Qiu Yun is not the real mastermind, then you and young madam are still in great danger. So you should stay here tonight.”

He had to stay behind to protect the young madam and Nuannuan, so he couldn’t escort her to the hospital.

He believed that when His Excellency returned, he would definitely have other questions to ask her. Therefore, Xiao Cui was the key person to uncover the mastermind.

“Don’t worry, Xiao Song will be very safe in the hospital. Don’t worry too much.” He had already a.s.signed a few people at the hospital, and it was precisely because of this that he couldn’t leave at the moment. He had to stay behind to protect the young madam and miss wholeheartedly!

Zuo Weiyi also agreed with Xiangyi, “That’s right. Tomorrow, we’ll go with you.”

Xiao Cui and Xiao Song ended getting involved because of her. If they didn’t know her, they wouldn’t have been targeted.

She felt a little guilty towards Xiao Song. She really wanted to go and see him with Xiao Cui tomorrow.

After hearing their words, Xiao Cui had no other choice but to listen despite her worries.

At night, everyone returned to their rooms. Only Xiangyi stayed behind to keep watch. When he was tired, he lay on the sofa in the living room to relax for a while.

In her bedroom, s.h.i.+ Nuannuan had no mood to sleep. She lay on the bed and stared at the ceiling. From time to time, she would reveal a silly smile. Her mind was filled with Xiangyi’s words and the anxious expression on his face today.

Did it mean that Xiangyi actually liked her? Or perhaps, even loved her?
