Chapter 216 When Will the Antidote Be Prepared?
"Ahem, let's get back to the main topic. My father-in-law only told me about Yi Rou's condition on the phone, without mentioning the specific cause. Do you have anything to add?"
Yan Ye and Yue Yirou exchanged a glance, then Yan Ye hugged her shoulders tightly and pulled her into his arms. He then looked up at Zhou Xinyu and told him about Zhang Qier's tampering with the highly realistic human skin mask.
After listening, Zhou Xinyu pondered for a few seconds and then said, "What about that human skin mask? I need to check what kind of medicine she used before I can prepare the antidote."
"After I helped Yirou take off that human skin mask that day, I just threw it on the floor of the hospital corridor. Uncle Xue handled everything after that. I'll call him and ask him."
Yan Ye took out his phone and dialed Xue Tao's number.
Xue Tao had just returned to Xingye Pavilion when he saw that it was Yan Ye calling, and he immediately answered.
"Old Master Mu took both of those human skin masks with him."
It's better that Grandpa Mu took it away than that it was thrown in the trash and destroyed.
The next day, after breakfast, Yan Ye, accompanied by A Cheng, went to the Mu family to ask for the human skin mask.
The Mu family was having breakfast when Yan Ye waited in the living room for a while before Old Master Mu appeared with a stern face, supported by Mu Xuan.
When Acheng saw Mu Xuan, his eyes suddenly became burning and bright, but they quickly dimmed, and he stood silently beside Yan Ye.
Yan Ye stood up from the sofa when he saw Old Master Mu.
"Xiao Ye, I bet you came to the Mu family this time because of your woman."
After sitting down on the sofa, Old Master Mu glanced at Yan Ye with displeasure.
Yan Ye admitted directly: "It was indeed for Yi Rou. I came here this time to ask the old man for the highly realistic human skin mask that I helped Yi Rou remove that day."
"Hmph." Old Master Mu snorted coldly, clearly dissatisfied with Yan Ye's answer.
Yan Ye smiled and said, "If it weren't for Yi Rou's skin allergy, I would have brought her to visit you."
Old Master Mu's expression softened slightly: "What exactly happened?"
"Yes, Ye, what exactly happened? Is Yi Rou having an allergic reaction on her face?"
When Mu Xuan heard that Yue Yirou had a skin allergy, her face was full of concern.
"Yi Rou developed an allergic reaction on her face because she wore that human skin mask. We suspect that the human skin mask was coated with some kind of drug that causes skin allergies. We need to know what the drug is in order to formulate an antidote."
Upon hearing Yan Ye's words, a light shone in the eyes of both the Mu family grandfather and grandson.
"Xiao Ye, let's talk about this in the study."
Old Master Mu requested to speak privately in his study, and he had already stood up from the sofa.
Hehe, he has another opportunity to benefit his precious granddaughter.
"Ahem." Yan Ye saw through Old Master Mu's thoughts. "Old Master, there's no need to discuss this in the study. That highly realistic human skin mask was torn off Yi Rou's face, so it can be said to belong to Yi Rou. Please return it to its rightful owner."
Old Master Mu stopped in his tracks, his expression turning displeased again: "You've already thrown it away, so what I picked up is mine. If you want it back, come to my study for a private talk."
Yan Ye's expression changed slightly.
This old man is becoming more and more unreasonable. He knows that Mu Xuan doesn't love him, but he still insists on creating opportunities to pair them up. If it weren't for their years of friendship, he really wouldn't want to waste so much time talking to him.
A silence fell over the room, and the atmosphere became somewhat oppressive.
Mu Xuan glanced at Grandpa Mu and then at Yan Ye, and spoke up to ease the tension: "Grandpa, don't bully Ye."
"I bullied him? Me, you little brat, sigh..." Old Master Mu sighed deeply.
Mu Xuan looked at Yan Ye: "Ye, I know where Grandpa put that mask. I'll go get it for you right away. Please wait a moment."
After saying that, Mu Xuan turned and ran upstairs, ignoring Old Master Mu's shouts.
Yan Ye watched Mu Xuan's figure, a complex look flashing in his starry eyes.
"I don't care anymore, I don't care anymore. Humph." Old Master Mu turned and left the living room angrily.
Soon, Mu Xuan handed a highly realistic human skin mask to Yan Ye.
"Ye, this is Yi Rou's highly realistic human skin mask. Take it back for inspection quickly."
"Thank you."
After thanking her, Yan Ye looked at Mu Xuan as if he wanted to say something but hesitated. In the end, he said nothing, took the human skin mask, turned around, and left the Mu family with A Cheng.
On the way back, Yan Ye suddenly said to A-Cheng in the driver's seat, "A-Cheng, Mu Xuan is not suitable for you."
Ah Cheng's hand on the steering wheel trembled slightly, and he feigned ignorance with a forced smile: "Young Master, what are you talking about? Ah Cheng doesn't understand."
Yan Ye looked out the window, his gaze deep and unfathomable: "I saw it three years ago."
"Young Master..." Ah Cheng was a little embarrassed, and his ears turned red.
He thought he was hiding his true intentions well, but little did he know that his young master had already seen through him.
Yan Ye glanced at A-Cheng's red ears: "You don't need to feel embarrassed. Everyone has emotions and desires. Besides, you are a normal man, and it's time for you to settle down."
Acheng's ears turned even redder.
He couldn't help but feel secretly glad that it was just him and Yan Ye in the car. If a third person had heard them, he probably would have wanted to crawl into a hole in the ground.
Young master, I'm very shy, please let me off the hook.
"When we get back to Starry Night Pavilion, I'll organize a matchmaking event for you, so you can choose whatever you want," Yan Ye added after a slight pause.
Acheng: "...No, no need, young master."
A matchmaking event?
No.
"I have decided."
"..." Acheng really wanted to cry.
Isn't this just making him a laughingstock among his brothers?
After Yan Ye retrieved the human skin mask, Zhou Xinyu immediately began testing it.
Because the drug has completely seeped into the human skin mask and mixed with the mask's material, it is very difficult to test.
It took Zhou Xinyu a whole day to successfully detect the drug components in the human skin mask.
Putting down the testing equipment, Zhou Xinyu couldn't help but sigh, "If this medicine was made by Zhang Qier, then Zhang Qier is truly a talent."
"This medicine only causes harm to the skin under specific conditions. In other words, unless it is wrapped up and applied to the skin, it will have no effect. Zhang Qier's methods are truly ingenious. She puts the medicine inside a human skin mask and can achieve her goal of harming people without anyone knowing. She is both a talented person and a terrible poisonous woman."
After sighing, Zhou Xinyu was filled with regret.
"When can the antidote be prepared?" Yan Ye suddenly asked, as this was the only thing he cared about.
“This…” Zhou Xinyu’s face immediately showed a troubled expression.
"Don't tell me you can't concoct an antidote."
Yan Ye's face instantly turned ugly, and a chilling aura emanated from him, making him extremely creepy.
"This... give me some time." Zhou Xinyu was so frightened that he stammered.
Wearing a thin butterfly mask, Yue Yirou couldn't help but reach out and tug at Yan Ye's sleeve: "Ye, don't do this."
Dr. Zhou is his good friend and Ruowei's husband. It's disrespectful and hurtful for him to treat her like this.
