Chapter 221   A Tragic Episode

At that moment, Tang Li’s voice was heard. “Pfft… Miss Lucia must have put something in one of the bottles, right? If I’m not wrong, the bottle of wine she put something in is probably the one I drank.”

Milus looked at Tang Li sharply.

At that moment, Tang Li raised her head to look at him. Her gaze was so cold that it made people shudder.

Milus’s heart sank.

At this moment, Qi Yihan said, “Continue watching.”

While Qi Yihan and Milus were watching the footage, the other members of the Qi family also got the security guards to send the video footage to them.

At this moment, many people were crowding behind the Q? family and watching.

After Lucia drugged a bottle of wine, the servants walked for a while more before they saw Xu Shize and Qi Lingxuan walking over at the same time.

The two of them stopped the servants again.

“Lingxuan took away a bottle of wine!” First Master heaved a sigh of relief when he saw that. “He must have taken away the bottle of drugged wine.”

With that, he looked at Milus and was about to speak.

Milus shot him a sharp look and continued looking at his phone. After Qi Lingxuan and Xu Shize took away the bottle of wine, the two of them returned to the banquet hall.

Lucia returned to the banquet hall before them.

Xu Shize took the bottle of wine and got someone to pour Lucia a glass.

When Lucia sat in the remote lounge, unconscious, Xu Shize carried Lucia away under Qi Lingxuan’s protection.

At this point, Milus looked at the Xu family and First Master with a murderous look. “What else do you want to say?”

Xu Shize’s father continued, “As long as you find him, you can do whatever you want.”

Milus was so angry that he wanted to shoot him.

He looked at First Master.

First Master’s face was ashen as he said, “I’ll give you an explanation.”

“Heh!” At that moment, Tang Li suddenly sneered and said, “While the bodyguards are looking for them, let’s talk about why Lucia drugged the wine.”

With that, she looked at Milus. “Mr. Milus, as guests, you came to the Qi mansion to drug me. If this matter gets out, won’t you bring disgrace on your family?”

These words made Milus tremble. He clenched his fists even tighter.

In the past, he was too angry and only wanted to cause trouble for the Qi and Xu families. Now that Tang Li said it, if the video of her sister drugging Tang Li went public and Qi Yihan made trouble for their family again, he and his sister would really suffer a great blow. While he was lost in thought, Qi Yihan said coldly, “Milus, after we settle the matter between your sister and those two men, I hope you can give me and my wife an explanation. Otherwise, I’ll ask your family head for an explanation.”

Milus was the next family head, but he had yet to take over. The current family head was his uncle. If Qi Yihan really made things difficult for his family, his position as the family head might be revoked.

At this thought, his eyes turned red, but he had to compromise. “I hope we can settle this privately.”

Everyone looked at Qi Yihan.

Qi Yihan frowned, looking unwilling.

Tang Li knew that it was about time, so she purposely tugged at Qi Yihan’s sleeve and said generously, “Hubby, let’s settle this in private.”

Qi Yihan nodded.

Everyone waited for nearly ten minutes before the bodyguards brought Qi Lingxuan and Xu Shize over.

Xu Shize, who was drenched, was fished out of the pond. He looked extremely miserable.

Qi Lingxuan’s face was pale and he was supported by bodyguards as he walked. He looked like he was seriously ill.

It was actually caused by that bullet.

Tang Li’s talisman was attached to the bullet. The medicine he had could only stop the bleeding but couldn’t quite yet heal the wound.

After the bodyguards brought the two of them over, they dropped them on the ground.

The moment First Madam saw Qi Lingxuan, she sneered, “You’re indeed a disgrace to the Qi family.”

Looking at Qi Lingxuan, First Master was furious. He felt that the son he valued the most actually did such an embarrassing thing to him. He took out his belt and walked up to him with a solemn face. Without saying anything, he raised the belt and whipped it at him.

“Ah…”

“I didn’t bring you back to embarrass you. How dare you do such a thing. I’ll kill you today.”

Qi Lingxuan’s body was curled up from the blow. He was too weak at this moment and could not resist, so he could only swear in his heart. “One day, I will make those who have humiliated me pay a thousand times back!”

First Master really hit Qi Lingxuan hard. He only stopped when Qi Lingxuan was on the verge of death. Then, he looked at Milus and asked with a deep gaze, “Mr. Milus, if you’re still angry, I’ll give you his life.”

Milus did not expect First Master to be so ruthless that he almost killed his son.

However, he was most angry with Xu Shize. He looked at the Xu family and said, “Do you mind if I take him away?”

Xu Shize’s father said, “I don’t mind.”

The middle-aged woman standing beside Xu Shize’s father started crying.

Soon, Milus left with Lucia and Xu Shize.

Qi Lingxuan was carried back to his room. As for Qi Hao, who was pulled out of the pond by the bodyguards, he was also half-dead and thrown into a hole. No one cared about him.

The party was still ongoing, so the Qi family invited the guests back to the banquet hall.

What happened tonight at the Qi family would be the subject of conversation for everyone for a long time, but at this moment, everyone chose to not talk about it at the Qi family.

After returning to the banquet hall, the atmosphere quickly returned to normal.

Situ Huang, who had been looking for Tang Li for a long time, finally found her. He quickly walked over and said to Tang Li, “Fourth Madam, let’s talk.”

The others were a little surprised that Situ Huang would talk to Tang Li, so they started discussing in low voices, “What did Mr. Situ want to talk to Fourth Madam about?” “Is he looking for Fourth Madam to treat Situ Jin?”

“I don’t know what Situ Huang is thinking. Tang Li has been criticized so badly in the medical world. She doesn’t know a thing about medicine and even wanted to steal cell rebirth from Dr. Augustine. Mr. Situ must be crazy.”

Situ Huang didn’t care what others said because he was anxious. He thought that since the old man was back, Tang Li would definitely have time to treat his son. However, she didn’t pay one single visit to his house. Had she forgotten about this?

“Fourth Madam, you took our money. Why did you stop treating my son?”
