His Peasant Wife: Yao Ling [Part 1]

Chapter 147: Lin Zhou - Uh-Oh!

"When I checked on him just now, I found a trace of the drug on his clothes. The drug would seep into his pores. This is especially done to increase the potency of the drug and it will make the drug take effect less than a hundred days," Yao Ling explained.

This was indeed really a cruel method.

"First thing first, we should change his clothes," Yao Ling ordered.

She led the others to the outer room, while Hei Yue told one of his subordinates to change Qing Hui's clothes with his.

It was a little too big for Qing Hui but it would make do for the time being.

Hei Yue asked, "In other words, the person who poisons him... must have been the closest person to Qing Hui, right?"

Yao Ling nodded. "Yes... Qing Hui must have trusted that person enough to let that person take care of his foods and clothing, right?"

Hei Yue could only sigh. "I think I know who that person is and I will deal with her."

Yao Ling nodded and didn't say anything more.

After all, her job was done and this matter was their organizations' personal matter.

Yao Ying decided to ask on Hei Yue's behalf, "Ling-er, can you cure him? He almost answered the name of the mastermind but one of his men hit him until he was unconscious."

Yao Ying lowered his voice into a whisper for the last sentence and no one but Yao Ling was able to hear him.

Yao Ling nodded her head and answered Yao Ying's question,

"Actually, it was lucky for Qing Hui that his subordinate hit him to make him unconscious. He was on the verge of a breakdown. If he continued on, I believe that he would become a mad person." Qing Hui's condition had reached the worse and in order to cure him, she knew that she had to make him stay unconscious for the time being.

"I've seen how my mother treated the villager, but still... she wasn't able to fully cure him. His brain has been damaged and there was also a personality change to the man," Yao Ling honestly explained the side effect of the drugs.

"That villager wasn't drugged to this extent, so the damage that Qing Hui has received must be several times more severe than that villager," Yao Ling said in a sad tone.

Hei Yue trembled when he heard what Yao Ling said.

He started to blame himself for not realizing that there was something wrong with Qing Hui, but he couldn't change the past.

He could only ask for the woman's help to save Qing Hui.

Hei Yue didn't care about his status, he quickly kowtowed in front of Yao Ling and begged, "Please save Qing Hui, Gu Niang! This old man will forever grateful for your help and will be indebted to you!"

The people inside the room were surprised by Hei Yue's sudden kowtow.

Yu Wen yelled and quickly tried to help Hei Yue to stand up, "Foster Father, what are you doing?!" In his mind, the almighty Hei Yue shouldn't let himself degrade to this extent --- even if the other side was the pretty jie jie.

Especially not for that traitor, Qing Hui. For him, being drugged wasn't an excuse!

Yao Ling quickly said, "Uncle, what are you doing? Please don't do this!" She felt uncomfortable, after all, she didn't think that she deserved this kowtow.

She quickly tried to appease the old man, "I will try to cure him, but I won't guarantee that he would back to normal. After all, his nerve has been damaged quite severe."
