Chapter 158 Killing someone with a borrowed knife

Qi An'an blinked her bright eyes, looking at Jiang Youli expectantly, and asked softly, "Sister-in-law, are we going to rescue that woman?"

Based on her understanding of Jiang Youli, Jiang Youli shouldn't ignore this, especially since it's such a good opportunity to deal with Qi Xiuyuan.

Jiang Youli shook her head, "I'm not going to save them."

"Huh?" This answer surprised Qi An'an.

Jiang Youli smiled slightly and explained slowly, "Because I don't have to do it myself; I can let Jiang Xing go and save me."

Qi An'an was even more surprised, "Jiang Xing? Doesn't he hate you, his sister-in-law, to the core? How could he possibly listen to you?"

Faced with Qi An'an's question, Jiang Youli replied confidently, "You'll find out soon enough."

Qi An'an was even more curious now!

……

Behind the Scenes of the Auction House

Upon hearing Boss Lin say that the Poison Doctor was his own sister, Jiang Xing thought he had misheard and froze on the spot. "Boss Lin, what did you just say?"

Jiang Yonghe's face under the mask instantly turned ugly. She refused to believe what she was hearing. "Boss Lin, this kind of joke isn't funny."

Boss Lin sighed and said helplessly, "Who was joking with you? Jiang Youli really is the poison doctor I was talking about. Not only is her medical skill amazing, but she is also a master of poisons. And only she herself can cure her poisons."

Upon receiving this definitive answer, Jiang Yonghe instantly felt dizzy.

After going around in circles, her life is now in Jiang Youli's hands again. How can Jiang Yonghe accept this!

Jiang Xingxian murmured in shock, "How could it be Jiang Youli!"

Then came anger, "Boss Lin, since Jiang Youli is the Poison Doctor, why didn't you tell me sooner? Why did you keep me in suspense for so long!"

Finally, there is the fear: if Jiang Youli is the poison doctor, what should be done about the poison in his body?

Hearing Jiang Xing's words carry a sense of self-reproach, Boss Lin immediately became displeased. "What? Do I have any obligation to tell you the Poison Doctor's true identity? Are you blaming me now?"

"To tell you the truth, it was Miss Jiang Youli who specifically told me not to tell you. If you want to blame someone, blame yourself for being blind and offending Miss Jiang Youli. Otherwise, if your family had acknowledged Miss Jiang Youli, you wouldn't know how prestigious you would be now!"

Boss Lin's words left Jiang Xing utterly devastated—perhaps because his last hope had been completely extinguished, and after the fear of death came endless regret!

Just as Boss Lin said, if his parents had accepted Jiang Youli back then, or if he had accepted her as his own sister, things wouldn't have turned out this way!

Seeing Jiang Xing so dejected, Boss Lin suggested, "Young Mr. Jiang, I advise you, if you are really poisoned, if you want to live, you should try to please Miss Jiang Youli. It is impossible for Miss Jiang Youli to forgive you, but there is still a chance to let you off the hook and detoxify you."

At this point, he glanced meaningfully at Jiang Yonghe, who was wearing a mask and sunglasses and unwilling to show her face, and said, "As for your adopted sister, well, good luck to her."

When Jiang Yonghe heard what Boss Lin said, she almost gave up on pretending and cursed him out. In the end, she held back; she couldn't ruin her image!

There is still hope that she can get rid of the remaining poison in her body and restore her appearance!

……

After leaving Boss Lin's place, Jiang Xing said absentmindedly, "Xiao He, you go back first, I still have some things to do."

Jiang Yonghe didn't ask Jiang Xing why he stayed behind, because she already knew.

Jiang Xing must have taken Boss Lin's words to heart.

He wanted to please Jiang Youli!

Even though Jiang Yonghe understood Jiang Xing's intentions, she could only sensibly reply, "Okay, big brother, don't worry too much about the antidote. I will find a way. Besides asking Jiang Youli, there must be other methods."

Jiang Xing's eyes were dim, and he said weakly, "...Mm."

After watching Jiang Yonghe leave the auction house, Jiang Xing looked at Jiang Youli in the private room of Zishu, gritted his teeth, and strode over.

……

After leaving the auction, Jiang Yonghe did not return to the Jiang family home, but instead dialed a number.

"I'm in trouble. You know a lot of shady people, right? That little bitch Jiang Youli poisoned me, and now my face is ruined. You'd better figure something out for me right now, or don't even think about asking me for a single penny again!"

"What? Poisoned? Damn it! That little bitch Jiang Youli!" The middle-aged man cursed, then promised, "Don't worry, I'll definitely find a way!"

"Also, find someone with a lot of lives on their hands to kill Jiang Youli for me!"

"Didn't you say that if you hire someone to take action against Jiang Youli now, people will suspect you?"

"I don't care about anything else! If you ever want money from me again, you'd better handle this matter properly and make sure no one traces it back to me!"

"I understand, my dear daughter, I've got your back!"

This time, Jiang Yonghe no longer dwelled on the fact that the other party called her daughter.

After hanging up the phone, she glanced back at the auction house entrance, her eyes filled with boundless hatred.

Jiang Youli, if I can't restore my appearance, then you should just die!

……

When the second item was up for auction, Jiang Xing went to the Zishu private room and found Jiang Youli.

"Can I talk to you?" Jiang Xing's tone was weak and listless, as if her soul had been sucked out, and she had no spirit at all.

Qi An'an looked at Jiang Xing in surprise, then at Jiang Youli, to see her reaction.

Jiang Youli raised an eyebrow. "It's just you. Where's Jiang Yonghe?"

Jiang Xing's lips moved slightly, and she lowered her eyes to reply, "I told Xiao He to go back first..."

Jiang Youli seemed to have expected this, and chuckled lightly, "Did you feel that what you wanted to say to me was not suitable for her to hear, so you asked her to stay away?"

Jiang Xing knew that Jiang Youli was smart and had a sharp tongue, so this time Jiang Xing did not refute her words, but just remained silent and let her mock her.

Seeing that Jiang Youli did not refuse Jiang Xing's request, Qi An'an thought for a moment and asked, "Sister-in-law, should I leave?"

Jiang Youli said indifferently, "There's no need. I have nothing to hide. Whether Jiang Xing is seen or not is none of my business."

Once Jiang Youli was sure she was willing to talk to him, a glimmer of light appeared in Jiang Xing's eyes.

"Before I can talk to you, Jiang Xing, you have to do something for me," Jiang Youli said. "Qi Xiuyuan just left with a woman. I couldn't see her very clearly, but she must be quite pretty. I plan to sign her after I take over Starlight Entertainment, so you need to go and rescue her for me." Jiang Youli said casually.

Jiang Xing was taken aback. Jiang Youli's meaning was clear: she wanted to use someone else to do her dirty work.

He and Qi Xiuyuan were both the knife and the person.

Regardless of whether he or Qi Xiuyuan suffered, Jiang Youli was happy to see it.

However, Jiang Xing is now truly at her wit's end.

Before he learned that Jiang Youli was the poison doctor, he had been so disobedient to her.

"...Okay, I understand."

After Jiang Xing finished speaking, he turned around and left the auction house without saying anything more.

Qi An'an stared in disbelief as Jiang Xing left. "Sister-in-law, you're amazing! Just a moment ago, Jiang Xing looked like he wanted to kill you, but now he's completely subservient to you."

Suddenly, something occurred to her, "Could it be that the poison doctor he was talking about is you?!"
