Chapter 394: Clues

. I also hope Ms. Cheng can think carefully about whether or not to make this public. Remember, even rabbits will bite when they're cornered. 。"Gu Xiao gritted his teeth, his eyes blazing with anger....A gleam of barely perceptible excitement flashed in Ou Yang Chu's eyes. While nothing was certain yet, the mere possibility was enough to fill him with elation.

When Puyun Guxia discovered this news, he was naturally overjoyed and didn't lower his voice. Xu Zuiying was also immediately attracted by the commotion here.

Especially when she heard what Puyun Gusha said, Xu Zui'ning only felt a boom in her head, and she suddenly turned to ask.

"What did you say! The antidote worked!"

Puyun Gus Xia was overjoyed but also a little puzzled.

“I can’t even guarantee that it's completely solved, but his pulse is now more stable than ever before, and for the first time, he even has a normal body temperature. I really can’t think of any other explanation besides it being fully resolved!”

Xu Zui'ning furrowed her brow, pushing away Pu Yun Gu Xia's hand and giving Ouyang Chu a careful pulse.

The most intuitive feeling was that a slight warmth had spread through OuYang Chu's arm, the first time in such a long time.

Even before, even Ouyang Chu's embrace was icy cold. This is one of the characteristics of Frostbone poison. Even if there was no outbreak on weekdays, this coldness and pain were enough to drive people mad.

But now, all signs on Ouyang Chu indicate that the poison seems to have been cured.

Xu Zui'ning felt the pulse and thought there was nothing wrong, so she stopped.

"How could this happen so suddenly You've been poisoned for so many years, how could it just suddenly be undone like this Could it be that you've entered another stage..."

Xu Zui Ning thought the more she thought about it, the more frightened she became. She didn't know much about the Frostbone poison because this toxin was truly too domineering. Generally, people who were poisoned by this would give up on themselves.

No one knows if this toxin has a second or third stage, or if it will suddenly become directly fatal.

Such a thing suddenly happening to OuYang Chu, one couldn't tell if it was good or bad. Xu Zui Ning said this, and Pu Yun Gu Xia's forehead also broke out in a cold sweat.

I wasn't thinking too much about it just now, I just felt that the poison should have been cured. Who would have thought there would be such a situation.

Although this is just a guess, it's enough to send chills down your spine.

"No, it's just that the suppression was more thorough. The nature of the toxins themselves hasn't changed."

Xu Zui Ning and Pu Yun Gu Xia were both momentarily stunned. They hadn't expected a cold, clear voice to suddenly come from behind them.

Xu Zui Ning was startled, turning back with caution. The fact that Ouyang Chu had been poisoned wasn't common knowledge, so why would Cheng Jibi speak with such certainty

"Don't look at me like that."

Cheng Jibing frowned slightly in displeasure.

"Isn't it the Frostbone Poison Did I guess wrong"

Xu Zui Ning's heart jumped, and she directly approached Cheng Ji Bei. The golden needle in her hand had somehow reached Cheng Ji Bei's throat at some point.

"How did you come to know about this poison"

Cheng Jibai wasn't afraid, he simply shrugged his shoulders as if he hadn't noticed the gleaming golden needle still lodged in his throat.

“What's written in the book is that those who are poisoned by this type of toxin will feel a coldness and pain all over their body. On the day the poison takes effect, they will die directly from the pain. But this gentleman looks like he has been poisoned for some time…and he is still alive and well. It seems his willpower is extraordinary.”

Cheng Jibin's words were very convincing, but Xu Zui'ning felt even more guarded against him in her heart.

"Where did you see this stuff This isn't what belongs here!"

Zhou Shuangqing chimed in with some difficulty.

"Drunk... I always felt he looked like you, though not exactly the same... But when I saw him for the first time, both of you were so cold..."

Zhou Shuangqing's words were already very clear. She had previously heard about the plan that Xu Zuiying and Ou Yangchu had discussed.

Isn't it said that Xu Zui Ning still has a younger brother who hasn't been found The age of this boy in front of him is already suitable, and the kind of aloof temperament on his body is simply carved out of the same mold as Xu Zui Ning.

However, the two people's appearances weren't particularly similar either. It's unknown, if they were originally twins, whether their appearance would have been more alike.

Zhou Shuangqing vaguely felt that it was like this.

Ke Xu Zui Ning, however, shook her head.

Whether twins look exactly alike is not a definitive standard because there are fraternal and identical twins... If they are fraternal twins, it's possible for them to look different.

Zhou Shuangqing also nodded in agreement. Here, besides Ou Yangchu, most of the others were in the medical field, so they wouldn't be ignorant of these things.

"But to just claim he's my brother based on such vague hearsay seems a bit unreasonable..."

Xu Zui Ning had always been worried about this, because there was no evidence to prove their relationship. Even if her brother stood before her, she couldn't just go up and recognize him.

However, Ou Yang Chu's gaze suddenly landed on Xu Zui Ning's neck.

"The jade on your neck... it seems like it's not a single piece"

Ouyang Chu's voice was low and gravelly, but it seemed to awaken Xu Zui Ning at once.

Xu Zui'ning's eyes lit up instantly.

This jade pendant has been with me since the beginning, and it does look like half of a whole piece. I thought it was the only thing my mother left me... Afraid of losing it, I recently had it made into a necklace and wear it close to my body.

Finally, the look of anxiety on Pu Yun Gu Xia's face eased.

"In that case, maybe the other half is in your brother's hands"

Xu Zui'ning hesitated for a moment before nodding. When her mother gave birth to her and her younger brother, they were still in the hands of Lady Eveleth and Cheng An.

How they escaped this perilous situation where death seemed imminent, and how one could be sure that this jade pendant was left by their mother to the two siblings, with each sibling receiving one piece, remain a mystery.

If it were just me, that would be fine, after all, I was still brought back to the Xu family to be raised. But my brother has been missing for all these years.

If he was just a child then, those who adopted him would have surely seen this jade pendant.

If they were a person with conscience, they would return the jade pendant to their younger brother after growing up. It could be considered acceptable. But if the younger brother was targeted by someone when he was young and the jade was taken away and sold directly, then that would be something unknown.

"If someone were to appear now with the other half of the jade... it could only be because they considered me their brother. It's not entirely certain."

Xu Zui-ning sighed, facts were always so difficult. Even if they got a glimmer of a clue, it immediately became less valuable.ou." Gu Ke Yu patted Lu Ji Yan's shoulder, motioning for him to let her down and have a good chat with Xiao Tang. But Lu Ji Yan didn't intend to let go at all. He held her and walked straight towards...
