Forced Marriage: The billionaire CEO calls

Chapter 480 Chronic Poisoning

Zhou Chengyan was about to start the car when his cell phone rang suddenly, and only after looking at it did he realize that the caller was actually from the Gu family.

He picked up the phone in a hurry, and heard Mr. Gu anxiously say over there: "Chengyan, what's the situation with Ai Ai now? Her grandmother just heard the news that she almost had an accident and fainted from excitement."

The news of Mrs. Gu's fainting was like a thunderbolt that knocked Qiao Ai out of her wits. She almost relied on instinct to support herself and turned back to the hospital.

Seeing Mr. Gu, Qiao Ai's eyes turned red and she walked up quickly, "Grandpa, how is grandma?!"

The old man's face was scorched, and he rubbed his hands anxiously, "The doctor just came in for a while, and I still don't know what's going on. How are you? Are you hurt?"

Qiao Ai raised her hand to wipe away her tears, "I'm fine, it's just some skin trauma, and the wound has been treated."

"That's good, that's good." Mr. Gu was relieved to hear that, but his eyes were still anxiously looking in the direction of the consulting room.

Accompanying him for decades had already become a habit, and he couldn't imagine how he would survive if he was really the only one left in the future.

Seeing this, Qiao Ai felt even more guilty.

Zhou Chengyan stepped forward to support her, and gently wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes with his hand, "Don't worry, grandma will be fine with good luck."

Qiao Ai nodded with sobs, and looked at him with tears in his eyes, "You are right, it must...it will be fine."

About God heard her prayer, half an hour later the door of the consulting room finally opened.

The doctor came out immediately, "Family members can rest assured that the patient only fainted temporarily due to the excessive impact. We did a general examination on her just in case, so it took a long time."

The examination was completed, but it would take a while for the results to come out. Mrs. Gu, who was still in a coma, was sent to the general ward.

It seemed that Qiao Ai, who had survived the catastrophe, refused to leave the old man even if he said nothing, and insisted on guarding her bedside until she woke up. Zhou Chengyan couldn't hold back her, so he had to accompany her.

At this time, Mr. Gu finally returned to his usual calm state, and he handed him over to the two of them with peace of mind, while he went to visit Lin Wanyi in the ward on the ground floor.

The old man hadn't woken up for a while, and Qiao Ai, who was gradually recovering, suddenly broke the silence in the ward, and said softly: "Is it possible that I made a mistake in the documents I read in the car?"

She was still unwilling to believe that Lin Wanyi was behind all this.

Zhou Chengyan looked up at Qiao Ai, but finally chose to remain silent.

How could he not know that the reason why Qiao Ai asked himself this question was to get a negative answer, but the information was checked by trusted people, and the possibility of making mistakes was very small.

Regardless of whether Lin Wanyi was behind everything or not, she probably had something to do with Qiao Ai's mother's death.

For Qiao Ai, this fact is actually a bit cruel.

Fortunately, there was a sudden knock on the door of the ward, and a serious doctor walked in with a few pieces of paper, "Which one of you is the guardian, I think I need to have a good talk with you."

Qiao Ai's heart was suspended, and she hurried forward, "I am, what's wrong?"

In order not to disturb the old man, the two changed the place of conversation to the corridor.

The doctor handed the several pages of documents in his hand to Qiao Ai, and pointed to the table data in one of the columns, "During the examination we just did, we found that this substance in Mrs. Gu's body obviously exceeded the standard."

Qiao Ai couldn't understand the professional terms above, and was a little anxious for a while, "What will happen if you exceed the standard? What happened to my grandma?"

Seeing her like this, the doctor hurriedly explained: "This kind of chronic toxin will cause a certain degree of damage to the human body. Although it is not fatal, it will lead to unconsciousness in the long run."

If not checked carefully, this symptom may only be regarded as Alzheimer's disease.

He paused for a moment, and then added, "But don't worry, it's still timely to find out, as long as you pass certain treatments, it won't cause any damage to your body."

These words left Qiao Ai in a state of shock for a long time, and even frightened the doctor, "You...are you okay?"

As soon as Mr. Gu came back, he saw Qiao Ai and the doctor standing at the door, and they didn't look well. "What's wrong with you? Why are you all standing at the door?"

The familiar voice made Qiao Ai come back to her senses as if she had just woken up from a dream, and her complexion slowly sank, "Doctor, can you arrange for my grandfather to have a full-body examination as well?"

It is certainly impossible for the chronic toxin to be ingested unintentionally. Since the poisoner targeted grandma, it is very likely that grandpa has also been poisoned.

In this kind of matter, Qiao Ai didn't dare to take chances at all.

This time, the process of waiting for the test results became even more torturous, Zhou Chengyan knew that his verbal comfort would not help at this time, so he just waited silently with Qiao Ai.

Another hour passed, and Mr. Gu's inspection report finally came out.

As expected, the same toxins as Mrs. Gu's were found in his body, and the intake of both of them was similar.

Qiao Ai clenched the report in his hand tightly, and the emotions of shock and anger kept rolling in his chest.

She was unwilling to believe that someone would be so heartless as to attack two elderly people who were over seventy years old.And the person who has the opportunity to poison them must always be by their side.

In other words, the person who poisoned him was most likely someone from the Gu family.

Qiao Ai almost pinched the blood on her palm, and said after a while: "Doctor, can I trouble you not to mention the poisoning to others?"

In the current situation, only in this way can the enemy be in the clear and in the dark, and hold the initiative in his hands.

This request sounds a little strange, but the doctor is also a person who has seen the world, and has seen a lot of TV shows about the struggle of wealthy families, so he agreed to this matter without thinking too much.

Qiao Ai forced a smile, "Thank you."

The doctor had already left at some point, Zhou Chengyan stepped forward to support Qiao Ai, his voice was full of distress, "I just confirmed with the doctor, grandpa and grandma are in good health, and they will be fine after treatment."

Qiao Ai leaned on his shoulder and said in a trembling voice: "I know, I just... just don't want to believe that it is really the people who live with them day and night in the Gu family who want to harm the two old people."

If it wasn't a servant, it could only be Gu Qiming's family.

If this is the case, can a person really play a good person for ten years?

Thinking of this, Qiao Ai finally calmed down completely, and decided to put aside personal emotional factors in the subsequent investigation, and it is bound to find out the black hand behind the scenes.
