Chapter 368 - : End of the White Lotus (3) (2/2)
The Murong family would probably be destroyed because of her…
At that moment, a strong slice of wind slashed Nan Ningxin across the back from outside, forcing her to drop the handkerchief with which she was suffocating Lady Murong.
Gu Bailu ran in to help Lady Murong. “My lady, hang in there. You must survive to see what will happen to this wolf.”
She hurriedly pinched Lady Murong and kept her conscious until the royal doctor arrived.
“The lady has been poisoned. The poison is making it impossible for her to breathe, and will make it look like she died of a heart attack later.
“Save her…” Gu Bailu said quickly.
The royal doctor took out a pill. “Don’t worry, we got here in time. This poison isn’t too strong. Everything will be fine.”
Nan Ningxin had been thrown to the floor. Her head lolled on her sleeve, as if she had pa.s.sed out.
Gu Bailu walked over to her and kicked her in the head. “I know you’re still conscious. If you don’t get up, I’ll pour boiling water on you.”
Nan Ningxin cried out in pain and pushed her foot away. “What… What are you doing?”
Looking at Gu Bailu and the strangers in panic, she seemed to remember Lady Murong, and hurriedly crawled toward her. “Are you alright, grandmother? She couldn’t breathe when she was feeling too sad earlier, and I was helping her when you broke in and interrupted me. What do you want?”
Lady Murong’s husband hugged her and said furiously, “Ningxin, we all heard what you said and saw what you did, and you’re still trying to deny it?”
