Rebirth Of The Villainess: Young Master Lu's Wicked Wife-Chapter 581 Surreal Dream (1)

It had been a while since the last time Lu Qingfeng attended a brotherhood night. As the night continued, he was able to catch up with what he'd missed over the past weeks.

"Are you and Su Xiaofei staying in Shenjing for good?" Song Yiran asked. Ever since he ventured out on his own, without relying on his brothers' help anymore, he was spending more time in Shenjing and only would only go to Qiying City for short visits.

"Not really." Lu Qingfeng replied. "Just until we're able to settle the business here. I'm sure she prefers staying in Qiying City rather than here."

"So you're still allowing her to work despite her condition?" Li Xiran asked.

Lu Qingfeng eyed the older man and he didn't need to ask how Li Xiran knew about his wife's delicate condition. How could he forget that Li Xiran was now dating Xi Qian? He wasn't sure though if Li Xiran was also aware that Su Xiaofei was poisoned.

"I wanted her to stop, but she insisted that she's still capable of running Bluemedia." He replied with a tone that let his brothers know that he wasn't pleased with Su Xiaofei's decision.

"Huh? Is she sick or something?" Song Yiran cocked his head to look at the youngest member of their group. "Is this why you couldn't leave Qiying City before?"

Lu Qingfeng's jaws hardened before drinking his whiskey in one go. He didn't want to drag his brothers into his problem, as he was so used to dealing with everything on his own. However, the more time he spent with them, the more he felt that he could rely on them.

"She's pregnant." He admitted, which was followed by a whistle from Song Yiran.

Ning Xuan laughed and patted Lu Qingfeng's back.

"You sure don't waste any time when it comes to her, huh? Marrying her at the first chance you got and now knocking her up? Lu Qingfeng, you are several steps ahead of us already."

"Congratulations!" Zhu Baichuan said while Yan Xiuchen gave Lu Qingfeng a concerned look.

"But you don't look happy." The scarred man commented. "What's going on?"

Lu Qingfeng's hold on his glass tightened. He should be over the moon right now if not for the fact that his wife was poisoned.

"Feifei was poisoned by someone. Han Zijun would have treated her by now and stopped it from spreading, but she refused to terminate her pregnancy."

Ning Xuan frowned. "Who would dare to poison her under your watch? They must be tired of living."

Zhu Baichuan scoffed at that and shook his head.

"She's Lu Qingfeng's wife. That alone is enough for her to be targeted by those who opposed him." He pointed out. "I'm pretty sure Big Sis has made enemies herself, considering her line of work."

"Do you know what kind of poison it is? Is there something we could do to help?" Yan Xiuchen asked Lu Qingfeng. Amongst his brothers, he was the closest to Lu Qingfeng because he had never shown disgust or treated him unjustly when they first met.

Initially, Yan Xiuchen was suspicious of this young man who kept seeking him for advice although he had long graduated from the same university Lu Qingfeng attended. They had met several times at various social events and Lu Qingfeng had made it bearable for Yan Xiuchen to stay as he kept him occupied.

Add to the fact that Xiao Rufeng was close to Su Xiaofei, it seemed to him that his girlfriend was still oblivious of her manager's health condition. Yan Xiuchen didn't want her to worry to death. He was also willing to help Lu Qingfeng to the best of his ability.

Lu Qingfeng hesitated, but the faster they could find an antidote for his wife, the better. The Yan family had better network than his Lu family and he wasn't able to utilize his family's resources in fear that his relatives would use the chance to strike him and harm Su Xiaofei further.

"It's called Cold Poison. Unlike other known poisons, this one acts slowly until it's deeply rooted that it's impossible to be treated anymore." He answered.

"Isn't Han Zijun known to be a medical genius?" Ning Xuan asked. "Shouldn't he be familiar with that poison?"

Lu Qingfeng shook his head. He knew that it was hard to procure the antidote in a short time, unless they got it from the maker of the poison itself. 𝗳𝐫𝘦e𝔀𝚎𝚋𝓃𝚘vℯl. 𝑐o𝚖

"He knows how to delay the effects and get rid of it, but an antidote is the fastest way to deal with it. It's hard for him to make it himself because he didn't have a sample of the poison to use."

Yan Xiuchen remained silent. He had heard of this poison before, but he assumed that it was a myth and didn't take the information seriously.

"I might not be able to get you the antidote, but I sure do know where we could possibly get this poison." He said after a long silence.

Lu Qingfeng whipped his head and looked at Yan Xiuchen in surprise. Even Nine wasn't able to achieve such a feat, as he couldn't find any lead on where the cold poison could be obtained. They had surmised that it came from the black market and surely cost an arm or a leg, and Lu Qingfeng hadn't expected to hear that Yan Xiuchen might have knowledge about it.

"You do?"

There's was no why Lu Qingfeng would reject Yan Xiuchen's help.

Yan Xiuchen nodded, but his hardened features told Lu Qingeng that it wouldn't be easy.

"Yes, but give me some time. It's hard to squeeze information from that man after all and money alone isn't enough to make him speak."

"I wish I could help, but I doubt that any of my business associates know about that cold poison." Zhu Baichuan sighed. "But just in case, feel free to call me anytime if you and Big Sis need help." He told Lu Qingfeng.
