Fu Xiao followed behind him out of the small storage room and walked to the living room, where Li Xiufen was bringing out a few bowls of noodles from the kitchen. "Come on, Xiao Xiao, eat first. Think about things after you're full."

Fu Weilun pushed a bowl and chopsticks in front of her and softly said, "Be good, listen, and eat your food..."

He looked up at Li Xiufen and smiled, "Sister in law, I haven't eaten either. Is there any more in the pot?"

"Yes, of course, there's more. I'll go get it for you," Li Xiufen said, starting toward the kitchen, but Fu Weilun stopped her with his hand.

"Sister in law, I'll serve myself. You go ahead and eat; don't worry about me."

With that, he went into the kitchen, served himself a bowl of noodles, and sat beside Fu Weibai. "Big Brother, after dinner, get some rest with Sister-in-law. Let the three kids come with me to the county tomorrow. You just stay home and take care of Dad. Don't worry, everything will be resolved soon."

Fu Weibai was gulping down his noodles. Hearing this, he looked up at Fu Weilun with a complicated expression but didn't say much. He just grunted in acknowledgment and continued eating.

Fu Weilun also lowered his head and began to eat. He had been busy all day and had only eaten one meal; he was indeed starving.

Fu Xiao quietly sat down and distractedly finished a bowl of noodles.

After dinner, Li Xiufen went to the kitchen to clean up the dishes, but Fu Weibai pulled her back to their room.

Once inside, she shook off his hand and asked, "Why are you pulling me? I was planning to sleep with Xiao Xiao tonight..."

Fu Weibai sighed, "Let's just leave it. The more attention we pay, the more uncomfortable it will make the kids. Let the third brother handle it."

"Ugh, what a mess this is..."

...

It was now late at night, and the moonlight flickered in and out behind the clouds.

Fu Xiao came out of her room and walked into the small storage room, handing a bottle of hemostatic medicine and some gauze to Gu Qichen.

Seeing his somewhat pale face, she calmly said, "Don't think about escaping; only I have the antidote for the poison in your body."

Gu Qichen looked up at her, his voice weak, "Girl, I won't escape, but could you please get me some water? I'm thirsty."

Fu Xiao's gaze was cold as she looked at him, noticing the cold sweat on his forehead. She placed her fingers on his wrist. After a minute, she confirmed that his current condition made escape impossible, so she felt reassured and walked out.

After thinking for a moment, she brought two bowls of water and two steamed buns from the kitchen and delivered them to the small storage room.

She went in and gave each of them a pill, watching them swallow it before feeling at ease.

Gu Qichen spoke casually, with a hint of nonchalance, "Girl, what kind of medicine did we eat this time?"

Fu Xiao ignored his question and turned to leave the small storage room, not forgetting to lock the door from the outside as she left.

Of course, it was poison. Such dangerous people must have a double safeguard.

Seeing Fu Weilun still sitting in the living room, she walked over and sat on the small stool opposite him.
