Chapter 56 - Scheming Daughter (2)

"This cold poison, do you know where it came from?" She asked, wanting to know if she could get more information about the poison that managed to kill her in her past life discreetly.

"It\'s concocted from a rare flower that could only grow in the mountains. The said species of the flower is very hard to cultivate as it\'s very delicate, especially when it comes to heat." Han Zijun explained. "As I said before, the poison is hard to trace as it has no scent or taste to give away its presence, such a reason makes it an ideal way for some people to kill someone else discreetly without leaving tracks."

The conversation between the two somewhat piqued Lu Qingfeng\'s interest. He looked between the two and realized that Su Xiaofei was trying to get information from the doctor.

"Then doctor, is there a way for us to avoid being poisoned by it?" He asked, which surprised Su Xiaofei and Han Zijun at the same time.

Thinking about it, wouldn\'t it be better for her to know how to counteract Ye Mingyu in the future if the woman tried to poison her again?

"There are two simple ways actually, but not many are aware of it. First is the silver needle method. If you think that your drink was spiked with poison, dipping a silver needle to see if it would react can tell you if it was poisoned or not. Upon contact, if the silver needle turns black, the probability of you being poisoned by the cold poison or any other kind is high."

Han Zijun wasn\'t sure why these two youngsters were interested to know about the characteristics of the cold poison, but if they could protect themselves from being poisoned in the future, then he didn\'t mind giving them a lecture on it.

"And the second method?"

"A little unusual, but place a freshly cut flower on the solution you suspect is being poisoned. The petals of the flowers would immediately turn to white, no matter what the original color was. It makes sense because the flower that the poison was derived from has pristine white petals."

"But I can\'t bring a silver needle with me at all times, right?" Su Xiaofei murmured.

"Since the poison reacts to silver, I suppose you can wear silver jewelry and use it discreetly." Lu Qingfeng said, which made Su Xiaofei praise him to no end for being too smart.

"Right, I could do that, Xiao Feng. Who knows, in the future I might be able to save someone\'s life with this useful trick!" She laughed and patted his back, a little too strong for Lu Qingfeng\'s liking. Su Xiaofei surely had no idea how strong and heavy her hand could be.

Before she and Lu Qingfeng left the pharmacy, Han Zijun pulled out a folded paper from his wooden drawer below his table and passed it to Su Xiaofei.

"Take this, Miss Su. Master Ouyang dropped by earlier and left this for you, since he has no way of contacting you. He said he forgot to ask for you and your mother\'s number. You can tell me your answer or write it down in a paper too, and I will forward it to him." Han Zijun explained.

Su Xiaofei eyed it for a moment. It seemed like the old man was a frequent visitor here for him to trust Han Zijun to pass this message to her.

Su Xiaofei unfolded the paper and read its content. Her face remained neutral, but Lu Qingfeng noticed the amused glint that appeared in her eyes. It seemed like she had just received good news.

As expected, Master Ouyang did well and reported what transpired in their household to the Yun family. She wasn\'t sure how the Old Master Yun reacted to the news, but given that she was being invited to meet the old man at the Yun Estate, Su Xiaofei had no reason to decline it.

She had just been reborn and at eighteen years,Su Xiaofei was aware that she had limited resources and money. If she truly wanted to get ahead of her enemies, she needed to raise her personal funds and expand her network to stop Mo Yuchen and Ye Mingyu from plotting against her.

The Yun family might not be able to give her the money she needed, but she had no doubt that they would be able to protect her mother if any problem arises. Also, by getting along well with her mother\'s family, she would be able to help her mother\'s wish come true by mediating the relationship between both parties.

"Thank you, Brother Han, and I trust that you will pass my response to Master Ouyang. Please tell him that I need to consult my mother about this invitation and will give you my answer on my next visit, if that\'s alright with him." She told the genius doctor with a slight smile, revealing the malicious intent in her eyes.

"I see. I will inform him then."

Su Xiaofei was aware of the old man\'s intention in inviting her, without extending his invitation to her mother. Yun Guanyu was planning to test her, to see if she was worthy enough to be accepted by their family, without knowing that Su Xiaofei didn\'t give a damn about it.

The only reason Su Xiaofei was seeking them like this was because of her mother. There\'s no need for her to get involved with the rest of their family, unless they could open new doors for her to utilize.

Su Haoran was scheduled to come home tonight and now that she had already sown discord between him and her mother, it was time for her to see their marriage crumble.
