After Qiao Yue returned to the coffee shop, she felt uneasy.

Li Qian stood behind her for almost a minute without her noticing.

"Hey!"

"what!"

Qiao Yue was startled by Li Qian and covered her chest, "What are you doing?!"

Li Qian frowned and looked at her, "I haven't asked you what you are doing yet? What's wrong with you? You have been sitting here in a daze since early morning, and you seem to have lost your soul."

Qiao Yue: "Oh, nothing."

Li Qian obviously didn't believe it: "What's wrong with you? Are you feeling uncomfortable? Is your wound hurting again? Or..."

Qiao Yue: "Oh, no, the wounds are all healed, it doesn't hurt anymore."

Li Qian: "Sister, we grew up together. You are like this, it's obvious that something is wrong. You can't fool me."

Qiao Yue: "It's just a small matter. I'll tell you when I have some clues."

Li Qian looked at her and said, "Okay, if you need any help, don't hide it from me."

Qiao Yue: “I know.”

At this time, the store manager happened to come to find Li Qian, and Qiao Yue quickly pushed her over.

Qiao Yue didn't mean to hide it from Li Qian, but the matter hasn't been investigated clearly yet, so the fewer people who know about it, the better.

I hope she is overthinking it.

Qiao Yue was busy in the coffee shop all day. After lunch, she went out with Li Qian to take a look at the new store.

No matter how busy she was, Qiao Yue would check her phone from time to time to see if Ji Beichen had sent her a message or if there had been any progress on the matter.

In the afternoon, Qiao Yue finished her work and turned on her cell phone, but there was still no message.

She looked at the time. It was a little after four in the afternoon.

Qiao Yue thought about it and decided that it was time to leave work early and go find Ji Beichen. The work had been done anyway. She had been worried all day and didn't want to stay in the store any longer.

She said something to Li Qian, then left with her bag.

Li Qian looked at her hurriedly leaving figure and muttered, "There must be something..."

However, Qiao Yue didn't say anything, and Li Qian respected her sister and didn't ask any more questions. Whenever Qiao Yue felt that she could speak, she would listen.

Qiao Yue took a taxi and went directly to Xingchen Group.

The company's employees also knew her as the boss's wife, so Qiao Yue arrived at the door of the president's office without any obstruction.

When the secretary saw Qiao Yue, he immediately stood up to greet her.

"Mrs. Ji, you are here. Let me tell Mr. Ji."

Qiao Yue waved her hand, "No, I'll go in directly, you go do your thing."

Qiao Yue walked straight to the door and knocked.

Ji Beichen looked up and said, "Yueyue, why are you here?"

Qiao Yue closed the door and walked over to stand beside him.

She looked and saw a pile of documents on Ji Beichen's desk.

She said, "Because of that incident, I felt a little uneasy, so I thought of coming to you to ask. Are you busy? Am I disturbing you?"

Ji Beichen shook his head. "No. I was also absent-minded today. I usually finish reading this pile of documents in an hour, but today I spent the whole afternoon on it."

Qiao Yue asked, "Is there any progress?"

Ji Beichen: "Not yet, there won't be any results so soon, let's wait a little longer."

Qiao Yue was slightly disappointed, "Okay."

Ji Beichen held her hand and said, "Why did you finish your work so early today? Are you tired? Huh?"

Qiao Yue replied softly, "Not tired."

Ji Beichen: "Since we are here, why don't we go have dinner together? I will get off work early today."

Qiao Yue looked at his desk and said, "You still have a lot of work to do. Can you leave now?"

Ji Beichen stood up and said, "It's not urgent, let's deal with it tomorrow. Let's go, what do you want to eat?"

Qiao Yue took his arm and said, "It's all right. How about..."

As they both walked to the door, there was a hurried knock on the door.

Ji Beichen opened the door and saw his assistant Xiao Lin standing at the door.

Xiao Lin saw the boss and his wife standing opposite him. The boss even opened the door for him personally. He was stunned for a moment, then immediately said, "Boss Ji, the inspection results of the tea are out."

Ji Beichen and Qiao Yue looked at each other, and Ji Beichen immediately said, "Come in and talk."

Several people entered the office and closed the door tightly.

Ji Beichen and his wife sat on the black sofa, listening to Xiao Lin's report.

"Boss Ji, I sent this tea to several different professional testing laboratories, but the results were all the same. Benzodiazepines were found in these teas. As we all know, this ingredient is usually used to make sleeping pills."

"Sleeping pill ingredients?!" Qiao Yue was surprised. "No wonder Grandpa said that people sleep better after drinking this tea. It's because of this!"

Ji Beichen clenched his fists and looked at Xiao Lin, "Go on."

Xiao Lin nodded and said, "The researcher in the laboratory told me that the amount of this ingredient in tea is not very high. However, long-term and large-scale intake is also harmful to the body."

"The intake of sleeping pills must be in accordance with the doctor's advice. If you don't follow the dosage and take them for a long time, it may cause serious damage to the nervous system and cardiovascular system, especially the elderly, and may even develop Alzheimer's disease or heart disease."

Ji Beichen frowned and said, "My grandfather has coronary heart disease..."

Xiao Lin said, "That's even more dangerous. If Chairman Ji continues to drink this tea, his health will soon be in trouble..."

After hearing these words, Ji Beichen's face had turned extremely cold and his heart was filled with anger.

Qiao Yue was also shocked and angry. She never expected that her Third Uncle would actually do such a sinister thing.

Poisoning tea leaves is really a good idea.

Qiao Yue said, "Uncle San always sends a small can of tea every time. It seems that he is afraid of being discovered, and it also makes it easier for him to adjust the sleeping pills in it."

"If he hadn't found out, he would have unknowingly increased the dosage each time. Grandpa is old, so even if he has health problems, it's normal, and no one would think it was caused by the tea leaves."

Qiao Yue said angrily, "What a vicious method! Now that we have found out, we can't let Third Uncle and the others go!"

Ji Beichen said with a serious expression, "I can't let him go. But there is still one thing I can't figure out."

Qiao Yue asked, "What?"

Ji Beichen said: "Even if Third Uncle's plan had not been exposed, if Grandpa really got into trouble, the heirs of the Ji family would be me and my father, not him. He has put so much thought into it, doesn't he understand this truth?"

Qiao Yue thought about it calmly and felt that what Ji Beichen said made sense. "That's right. He took this risk just for the Ji family's property. How could he not have thought of this?"

Ji Beichen said in a deep voice, "This matter is not that simple."
