ey... consider it compensation for Fu Xiaoyao.But…Fu Xiaoyao still wanted to speak, but when she saw his expression, the guilt that had just risen in her throat was swallowed back down.She didn't know...Yu Lin covered her face, “It’s not like that, it's not like that, you don’t have to apologize to me, it's my own fault…”

"Yourself" Fu Xiaoyao narrowed her eyes when she heard this, "No, this definitely isn't your own doing. Tell me, is someone making you do this"

Yulin was startled. She never expected that she would guess it all at once.

"No, I did it myself. No one ordered me to." Yu Lin trembled slightly, unwilling to tell the truth.

But how could Fu Xiaoyao not see through her lies Disappointment grew in her heart, "You won't say it, will you Fine, let me guess. You have no grudge against my grandfather, so you wouldn't harm him directly. The person who truly wants to harm him is my grandfather's enemy..."

Speaking of this, Fu Xiaoyao suddenly thought of something, her expression changed drastically, "Qi Ya Is it Qi Ya who is right Was it her who made you do this"

She still remembered that time in the nursing home parking lot, Qi Ya had once said she hoped her grandfather would die.

Therefore, there is a high probability that Qi Ya asked Yu Lin to do this.

And there was that time when Qi Ya inexplicably appeared outside the ward of Yu's parents, probably observing if Yu Lin could become this pawn.

That makes sense now.

"Why aren't you speaking I was right, wasn't I Is it Qi Ya who made you do this" Fu Xiaoyao glared at Yu Lin, her fists clenched tightly on both sides.

Yu Lin turned around, facing away from her, avoiding her gaze. "No, Xiao Yao, don't talk nonsense, it has nothing to do with her."

“You’re lying, your expression tells me I’m right. It was Qi Ya who made you do this. Why would she make you poison my grandfather Was she threatening you” Fu Xiaoyao grabbed her shoulders and forcefully turned her around.

Yu Lin turned around, but she kept her eyes tightly closed, refusing to open them to look at Fu Xiao Yao. All she could do was beg, "Xiao Yao, please don't force me, okay I won't say anything. About this matter, I'm so sorry..."

"Sorry" Fu Xiaoyao let go of her, looking at her like a stranger. "Yu Lin, do you know what you're saying You poisoned an eighty-year-old man. If it weren't for my grandfather's timely medical treatment, he would be dead by now. Can you just cover everything up with one sorry"

"Poison" Yu Lin suddenly opened her eyes, her expression full of astonishment. "What poison"

Yu Lin's reaction made Fu Xiao Yao stunned, "You don't know"

Yu Lin shook her head. "I don't know, I only gave him ordinary laxatives, it wasn't the poison you're talking about at all. How could laxatives kill someone Xiao Yao, don't scare me."

She was a little scared.

Fu Xiaoyao looked at her coldly. "I scare you Why would I scare you with this If you don't believe me, you can go to the sanatorium with me and see for yourself. See if what you gave her was laxative or poison."

"No, this can't be!" Yu Lin's eyes widened in shock, she took a step back, "She told me it was laxatives, how could it be poison."

"She's lying to you." Fu Xiaoyao gave her a sympathetic look.

Yu Lin trembled all over, "Deceived me"

"Yes, do you think Qi Ya is a good person My bone marrow, my child, all because of this woman. I and Qi Ya are mortal enemies, and Qi Ya wishes my grandfather dead. Do you think she would just give you medicine" Fu Xiaoyao roared.

Yu Lin couldn't control her emotions anymore after hearing these words and broke down, "How could this be I don't know, I really don't know. If the medicine was actually poison, then wouldn't I have killed someone"

"Yes, you killed him. You poisoned him. That's murder, do you know that" Fu Xiaoyao said.

Yu Lin was so scared that her legs went weak and she collapsed to the ground, staring at her hands in despair. "Murder... I killed someone. I didn't mean to... Xia Yao, believe me, I really didn't mean to. She said she just couldn't stand the old man, wanted to teach him a lesson, so she gave me that bottle of medicine, saying it was laxative. I took it, I didn't know it was poison..."

Fu Xiaoyao looked at Yu Lin, who was so wild and out of control, and she felt quite uncomfortable.

She slowly crouched down in front of Yu Lin, “I believe you didn’t know it was poison, but even if it were just a laxative, you shouldn’t have helped her. My grandfather is over eighty years old and his stomach isn’t good. Taking a laxative could potentially cost him his life. How could you…”

"I can't do this!" Yulin covered her face and burst into tears, "I really can't. My parents' medical expenses and surgery fees are crushing me, I'm almost broken. I simply can't afford it. Qiya found me and said that as long as I help her drug someone, she would transfer my parents abroad for treatment."

"So you compromised, then" Fu Xiaoyao stood up.

Yu Lin nodded, her voice choked with tears. "Yes, I compromised, but before I did, I struggled too. Qi Ya said laxatives wouldn't kill anyone, just give them a lesson, and so I did."

But she never expected that it wasn't laxative, but poison.

“I’m so disappointed in you!” Fu Xiaoyao took a step back, putting distance between herself and Yu Lin. “I considered you my best friend, but you betrayed me because of what others said. Even for Uncle and Aunt, wouldn't I be more trustworthy than Qi Yake Why didn't you come to me for money If you had asked, I would have given it to you!”

"I can't afford to pay it back," Yu Lin said, crying and laughing at the same time. "For the money I borrowed from you before, I don't know how long it will take me to repay it, let alone hundreds of thousands or millions. So of course I would choose the option that allows me to get treatment without having to repay the money."

"Crazy, you're crazy!" Fu Xiaoyao clenched her hands, "Yu Lin, come on, let's go turn ourselves in!"

"I'm not going!" Yu Lin resisted, looking at her. "I can't turn myself in. If I do, what will happen to my parents"

"But if you don't surrender yourself, what can you do You poisoned someone, it's premeditated murder. Do you really think you can get away with it" Fu Xiaoyao countered her.

Yu Lin hugged herself tightly, "Xia Yao, for the sake of our friendship, can you let me go I'm leaving the country tomorrow and I'll never come back. You can pretend that nothing happened. Besides, he's not your real grandfather anyway."

"What are you talking about" Fu Xiaoyao stared at her in disbelief, as if it was hard to believe these words were coming from her.

"Linlin, do you even know what you're saying Is this still the Yu Lin I know It hasn't been that long, you're like a different person! What do you mean make like nothing happened This is a life, a human life!" Fu Xiaoyao roared, her emotions running high.

Yu Lin also felt guilty, but guilt ultimately couldn't outweigh her fear of going to jail.

She avoided Fu Xiaoyao's gaze, not daring to look at the disappointment in her eyes.

"Xiaoyao, I know I'm despicable, but I really can't go to jail. If my parents knew I did this, they wouldn't be able to bear it. Xiaoyao, please, let me go!"

"You let him go" Fu Xiaoyao scoffed, taking several deep breaths before suppressing her urge to explode. "How could I let him go You almost killed my grandfather! Even if I let you go, do you think my husband would" She paused, a hint of triumph in her voice. "By the way, you've always been curious about who my husband is, haven't you Well, now I'll tell you. My husband is Lu Hanchuan, your former boss!"

"How... how is that possible" Yu Lin stood up in shock.oyao reached out to knock on Lu Hankan's office door, the door suddenly swung open from the inside.Joe walked out holding a stack of files and saw her, blinking in surprise. "Madam""Is he in there" Fu...
