Cheng Yiyang went to Tan Mu's place. At that time, Xie Tang was still sitting opposite the woman, speaking seriously while recording.Pushing open the door, the conversation stopped.Cheng Yiyang gave Xie Tang a "please go" gesture.So Xie Tang continued on without being affected.

Cheng Yiyang walked over quietly, pulled a stool and sat down, listening.

Tan Mu leaned on the back of the wide chair, tilting his head sideways.She is pampered, even the skin on the neck, which is most prone to wrinkles, is not rough, and she does not look like a woman who is almost 60 years old at all.

Cheng Yiyang stared at the other party's fragile neck.In fact, killing people is not that difficult, and sometimes it is even simple. At least such a neck can be easily strangled in his hands, and the whole process takes less than a minute.Or cover her mouth and nose, and watch the person struggle and finally become motionless after despair, and it will take less than 1 minutes.

However, it is difficult to kill without leaving evidence.

Can't be impulsive.

Cheng Yiyang could only turn his eyes away and slowly lower his head.

"Xiao Xie, you have read my recent medication and inspection report, do you think there is anything wrong?"

Hearing Tan Mu's question, Cheng Yiyang suddenly stopped the pen in his hand.

Xie Tang said: "There is nothing wrong."

"However, sometimes I feel uncomfortable after drinking the medicine."

"Where is the discomfort? What symptoms?"

"Although the number of attacks is less than before, but chest tightness," Tan Mu sighed softly, "Sometimes I feel out of breath, as if something is blocking my heart, but there was no such situation before, and a few days ago , My nails." She stretched out her right hand and handed it in front of Xie Tang. "The fingertips are still purple, and the color is not obvious. I am old and my eyesight is not good. I can't see it even in the dim light of the room. But it is the servant below. You can see it when I was serving me. When I went to the sun to take a photo, it was indeed a little purple, which looked like poisoned, but my body was fine at that time. Later, I heard from Dr. Li that this symptom Does it look like metal poisoning?"

Cheng Yiyang was on guard all of a sudden, but he still didn't raise his head, just lowered his head and listened.

"Is the medicine you take tested every day?"

"That's natural."

"Could you trouble Madam to bring me the medicine you just drank, preferably together with the medicine pot."

Tan Mu waved and asked the servant to fetch it.

The medicine bowl hadn't been washed yet, and there was some residue left at the bottom.

Xie Tang wiped it with his finger, observed for a while, and then put his finger directly into his mouth and tasted it.

Tan Mu smiled and said, "You young people don't mind, just try it like this?"

"If you mind, you can't be a good doctor." Once Xie Tang got serious, it seemed like that.And his behavior pleases Tan Mu very much.After all, older people are very sensitive and others will dislike them. Xie Tang didn't mean that at all. I'm afraid that even her own son would be able to directly stuff the dregs of the medicine she drank into his mouth.

I don't know if it was intentional, but to please and gain trust.

Xie Tang had someone take a sample from the bottom of the pot where the medicine was boiled, and said he would take it back for testing.

Cheng Yiyang couldn't help feeling a little flustered.

Right now, I can only hope that the mercury content has been reduced to a negligible amount this time, so that it can escape Xie Tang's personal inspection.But the opposite is true.This time it was the heaviest time, because it was the last time, the eyeliner secretly put all the remaining amount in it, and this time the drug testing machine alarmed, so Tan Mu didn't drink the medicine at all, but It is down.She is now quietly investigating the specific reason.

"Maybe it's a side effect of the medicine. I'll go back and check it carefully, and I'll call you back."

"Okay, thank you for your hard work."

"By the way, ma'am, the medicine prescribed to you last time should be replaced."

Tan Mu asked: "Chinese medicine or Western medicine?"

"Of course it's western medicine. You shouldn't take one kind of medicine for too long. I'll give you another one, which has similar effects."

Tan Mu was obviously more willing to trust Xie Tang, "It's all up to you."

"Change to Quincytin." Xie Tang wrote a list, "Three times a day, three tablets each time, ten courses of treatment."

Cheng Yiyang kept his head buried in listening, restrained no matter how emotional he was ups and downs or worries, he always sat there motionless like an outsider.But when Xie Tang said to change to this medicine, he suddenly raised his head.

Fortunately, he was sitting behind Tan Mu, and she didn't see the shocked expression on his face.

But Xie Tang was sitting opposite Tan Mu, who happened to be face to face with Cheng Yiyang.

He naturally saw Cheng Yiyang's reaction, but when their eyes met, he acted as if he hadn't seen anything, turned his eyes away naturally, wrote on the list calmly, and handed it to the person standing at the door The servant asked them to prepare the medicine.

If it was Cheng Yiyang who proposed to change the dressing, she might not agree, but would be suspicious.Xie Tang did what he was about to do.

However, is this a coincidence, or did the other party deliberately help him?If it was just a coincidence, what is the probability that two people would think of a medicine at the same time?Moreover, Xie Tang would know that Quincintin is actually more dangerous than the previous drug, and some "side effects" may be more severe.Now that you know, why help yourself?

"Doctor Cheng, what else do you need?" Xie Tang stood up suddenly and interrupted his thoughts with a question.

Cheng Yiyang came back to his senses, "Oh, I still have something to ask Madam."

"Okay, then you guys talk, I'll go out first."

Tan Mu nodded.

Xie Tang smiled and said to her: "Ma'am, Dr. Cheng is also very good. He is also older than me. He is not only highly educated but also has rich experience. He has seen many cases. You can directly talk to him if you have any questions in the future."

At that moment, Cheng Yiyang felt a little subtle.

Obviously, Xie Tang was helping him, whether it was changing his medicine or speaking for him.

Cheng Yiyang is very clear about Xie Tang's undisciplined nature. The other party has absolutely no way of knowing his own thoughts. Even if he knows, he will not participate. Why did he suddenly figure out his plan and come to help?Cheng Yiyang would never believe such a thing as pie in the sky.

"I'm afraid that Dr. Cheng will have a grudge against me. After all..." Tan Mu looked at Cheng Yiyang with disdain in his eyes, but he still spoke very decently, "When I was sick before, I mistook him and beat him up. I'm afraid Dr. Cheng will blame me."

"How come, if the psychological quality is so poor, you are not worthy of being a doctor, right?" Xie Tang looked at Cheng Yiyang and signaled with his eyes.

If it was before, Cheng Yiyang might have squeezed out a smile, but after seeing his brother's miserable situation today, he didn't want to laugh at this vicious woman. meeting."

Ten minutes later, Cheng Yiyang came out of the room, opened the door, and saw Xie Tang and Xie Junting talking face to face.

Xie Tang said: "I've helped everything that should be done, and I've wiped away the unhealthy traces. No one should notice it. Remember to be careful in the future and don't leave any clues. I've done everything you want. Remember when the time comes Deliver on promises."

Xie Juanting nodded, and in a blink of an eye, seeing Cheng Yiyang just coming out, the two of them stopped talking.He still looked indifferent, with his face slightly sideways, and the light from the corner of his eyes glinted across Cheng Yiyang's body, without revealing any emotion.

In the blink of an eye, Xie Tang returned to his idle look again, and asked Cheng Yiyang lazily, "Can you go back now, Doctor Cheng who is in heat everywhere."

That frivolous look almost made Cheng Yiyang suspect that this person is not the same as before.

"Back."

"Take me with you."

Cheng Yiyang squinted at him, "Didn't you drive the car yourself?"

"I lent him my car." Xie Tang pointed to the person next to him, "I don't know why he insisted on driving me. Is my Xiaobai better than a military car?"

Zhou Ling explained with a smile, "My young master hasn't bought his own since he returned to China, but sometimes it feels too ostentatious to use the car that comes with this place."

"All right, all right," Xie Tang waved his hand, "If you like it, I can give you my car. At worst, I'll go buy a new one. I just want to change it."

"Let's go, don't waste time here. I was dragged here early in the morning. I haven't woken up from the wine last night. I have to go back and sleep. I'm so sleepy..." He followed suit Holding Cheng Yiyang's shoulder, he half pushed and half led the person downstairs, "You have to send me back to the city! I don't want to go to Xie's house, it's so far away, it's not convenient to ask the little beautiful man to come and accompany me..."

Cheng Yiyang was dragged away a few steps, and couldn't help but look back. Xie Junting had already turned around, and only Zhou Ling was left smiling at him.That smile is very gentle and has a kind of confidence that belongs to the Xie family. It has a soothing effect. It seems to know that Cheng Yiyang is sad and worried that a series of things today are developing too fast. They seem to be unconnected but intertwined. Even if Cheng Yiyang's mind is spinning Hurry up, I couldn't figure it out for a while.

But he still followed Xie Tang, and only a few steps down the stairs, he heard Zhou Ling say something.

"The reason for bringing people here is to investigate the cause of Bai Lu's death. After all..."

Cheng Yiyang didn't hear the following words clearly, but the previous information was enough to make him uneasy.

Asking people to come over must mean Bai Li.

Cheng Yiyang paused, frowning slightly.

"What's the matter?" Xie Tang pushed him impatiently, "Come on, hurry up, I have to go back to sleep."

Cheng Yiyang found that he could no longer hear any movements or figures above, and guessed that the two people had already entered, so he had to resist the impulse in his heart.

As soon as Xie Tang got into the car, he yawned profusely, pushed the back of the seat back, and leaned lazily on it.

"Why did you send me to my brother yesterday? It was just looking for trouble for me, otherwise I wouldn't have to be around him, you know?"

"Being a good boy when you get a bargain," Cheng Yiyang said bluntly, "Aren't you an equal exchange? You help him, and then you get benefits from him."

"Yo," Xie Tang glanced at him and said sarcastically, "I can't tell, you still like to listen to the walls."

"It was you who were careless and let me overhear."

"Cheng Yiyang, I am the same as you, and Xie Juanting is an equal exchange, you have no right to mock me."

"I'm the same as you?! Stop joking..." Cheng Yiyang stomped his feet, and the speed of the car suddenly soared.He was about to say that I have nothing to do with Xie Juanting, but Xie Tang snorted disdainfully, and asked him first: "Then tell me, why did you follow Xie Juanting's words to murder Tan Mu? You can do whatever you want if your brain is broken." Against the Bai family and the Tan family?"

Cheng Yiyang did not shout out impulsively, "I didn't listen to him, that was my own opinion." On the contrary, although he was a little surprised when he heard the other party say that, his face remained calm, "Is that what Xie Junting told you?"

Xie Tang looked uninterested, "Last night, I asked him why he was so close to you..."

Cheng Yiyang frowned suddenly, and the corners of his mouth sank slightly, "You actually asked him such a question?"

"Why, who stipulates that you can't ask, he is my brother, and you are an outsider, right?" He looked suspiciously at Cheng Yiyang, "What you said just now is really strange!"

Cheng Yiyang avoided the important ones, "How did he answer you?"

Seeing how quickly his face changed, Xie Tang gave him a gouged look, but he still replied, "He just told me that you were working for him, and then I asked, what are you doing."

"He just told you that I was helping him deal with Tan Mu?"

"No." Xie Tang was quiet for a while, and when Cheng Yiyang found that there was no sound, he turned his head to look at him, and was surprised to find that Xie Tang's expression suddenly sank. After thinking about it, he still didn't speak, and waited patiently for the other party to speak first.

"All he said at the time was that if I wanted to know, I had to get involved, otherwise he couldn't tell me."

"You promised?"

Xie Tang nodded.

Cheng Yiyang smirked, "I realized that I was on a pirate ship belatedly? Unfortunately, it's too late to regret it now."

"I don't regret it." Xie Tang suddenly lowered his voice, his tone sounded very alienated, "The sooner Tan Mu dies, the sooner we can swallow up the Tan family's business, why not do it." At that moment, His side face looked very indifferent, without any usual human touch.

"You're right, I got what I wanted with him."

Cheng Yiyang pretended to ask casually, "What did he promise you to make you so willing?"

"I won't tell you." Xie Tang had already returned to his original ruffian appearance, and still did not forget to tease him, "Anyway, the content of the exchange is not you, you are already out of date in my heart."

He crossed his legs lazily, "Why don't you tell me why you are so determined to help him work, and then I will tell you my terms of exchange."

Cheng Yiyang did not answer this question.

"You worked so hard just now, you actually tasted all the leftover medicine residue she ate."

"Being trusted by others is my professional quality." Xie Tang's face collapsed after the corners of his eyes were hanging, "Cheng Yiyang, you must be more professional in the future. You are not good at doing things, and you are everywhere." It’s not like you don’t know that Tan Mu is very suspicious, and I have to make up a reason for failing the drug test. Fuck, I almost spit out that mouthful just now, you know. "

It is typical to open a dyeing workshop by giving some color, Cheng Yiyang only smiled and did not answer, his face became a little serious.

Now he can't figure out Xie Junting's intention.

Is it to get back the Xie family's child, or to find out that Bai Lu is not dead and want to dig him out for revenge, or to give some color to the Bai family and the Tan family and threaten them to behave in the future?It seems to be both, and it seems not to be.But at least one thing is certain, Xie Juanting is still amazingly perceptive, he discovered all the tricks he did with Tan Mu, and even sent Xie Tang to deal with the aftermath.

Before Bai Chen and Tan Mu were aware of it, it was Xie Junting who discovered it first, but after thinking about it, he found it very reasonable. After all, Chief Xie is best at investigating, collecting evidence, and digging out the truth. No illusion can be true. I kept it from him for a long time.

Cheng Yiyang frowned.

What on earth is this man trying to do?
