Chapter 439 - The Truth Behind The Infertile Drug Incident (1/2)

Even though the man was a merchant, no one dared to look down at them. Their backer was the empress --- the matriarch's sister. Not only that but they had also gotten certain titles from the Emperor which made them quite noble as well. That was the reason why it was easier for them to make money and enjoy the best treatment from other people. It was all thanks to his aunt ah~!

In a way, it was a quite good ending for his mother. Too bad though... that man was angry at the rejection. After all, his mother rejected him for someone who was far inferior to him and it was like an insult to him. The man didn't seem to know the concept of love and he only thought of his mother as a possession --- Wang Luo Hai was sure of that.

”What about the man, Father? You haven't told me anything about it...” Yao Ling asked curiously. She had a bold guess about this infertile drug. Was this man the mastermind behind it all?! She was a hundred percent sure of it!

”The man is petty and cruel, to begin with. However, he is a patient person when he has a grudge... That is the most dangerous thing. He attacked when people had relaxed their vigilance --- including your grandmother and me...” Wang Luo Hai trailed off while shaking his head in despair. It was a matter of the past but who knew... the man was quite vicious in handling things. However, there was nothing that they could do.

Not only that but the man was too powerful for them to retaliate back and that was the reason why he didn't want to tell the matriarch. The guilty feeling would really kill her ah~!

”Don't tell me... he's the one who did it?!” Yao Ling gasped in surprise despite already guessing it. After all, she was doubtful that a person would be able to hold a grudge for that long. It was simply a baffling thing!

Wang Luo Hai nodded his head. ”Yes...” He sighed in sadness.

Then, Yao Ling realized something. ”Then... he must be a part of Mi Hui --- after all, he was the twin princes' backer, right? And also the poison inside Madam Wang's body... it's similar to Mi Hui's poison... It seems like they were made by the same person...” She asked to know whether her deduction was correct or not.

Wang Luo Hai looked at her with a complicated expression. ”So, you noticed it as well?” Wang Luo Hai was quite amazed by her skills. After all, it took a long time for his private doctor to find out about that matter, but Yao Ling was able to feel it with just a touch. It seemed like he really couldn't underestimate Yao Ling.

”So... does he have something to do with Mi Hui?” Yao Ling pushed for an answer.

”In a way... yes...” Wang Luo Hai answered.

”Hmm... what do you mean?” Yao Ling asked in confusion. In a way? Didn't it mean the answer was between yes or no?!

”He used to be a member of Mi Hui, however, he had changed side for quite some time...” Wang Luo Hai answered.

”Was he a core member?”

”Yes... He was actually one of the founders because he was the Empress' first backer...” Wang Luo Hai explained.

”Then... what about Mi Hui's secret?! Didn't it mean that he could tell his new comrades everything about Mi Hui?” Yao Ling gasped in surprise. She didn't think that the consequences of not choosing that man were actually so serious! He was really too petty ah~!
