The Hunter's Lucky Little Lady

Chapter 79

79 Sympathy

Minister Wu arrived quickly, and he was alone when he arrived.

The guards were left in the courtyard. Only Minister Wu walked in.

As soon as Minister Wu came in and saw Wang Mingjiang, his face immediately lit up.

Just as he was about to speak, Luo Han spoke first.

“Minister Wu, if I were you, I definitely wouldn’t speak first!”

Minister Wu was someone who had experienced many things. When he heard Luo Han’s words, he immediately understood something.

He immediately swallowed the words that had reached his throat.

“Mr. Luo, what exactly is going on?” Minister Wu composed himself and asked after a while.

“Minister Wu, there’s something I want you to see first!” Luo Han stood up and came to Wang Mingjiang’s side.

“Let Minister Wu take a look!”

Wang Mingjiang glanced at Luo Han and recalled what Li Xiaoran had said previously. He simply lifted his hair again, revealing the moth-like bruise on his neck.

“Huh!” Luo Han said at that moment.

Meanwhile, Minister Wu’s expression turned ugly!

“Come over and take a look. Isn’t the bruise on the back of his neck not as blue as before? It looks much lighter.” Luo Han ignored Minister Wu’s expression and shouted at Luo Cheng and Li Xiaoran.

When Luo Cheng and Li Xiaoran heard Luo Han’s words, they quickly walked over to take a closer look.

“That’s right. It does look much lighter than before! The previous bruise was a little purplish-red, but it’s not so dark now!” Luo Cheng observed and said.

Li Xiaoran looked at the faded bruise and thought of a possibility.

“Could it be that some of the poison in his body has been detoxed, which is why this change happened?”

“That’s right. If the poison is reduced, this bruise will become much lighter. When the bruise is gone, the poison will be cured! I wonder what you did to save my son and remove some of the poison in his body!” Minister Wu said excitedly.

At this moment, everyone looked at Minister Wu with probing gazes.

“Do you know about this poison?” Luo Han asked.

Minister Wu’s gaze landed on Wang Mingjiang. Seeing that he didn’t despise him as much as before, he felt a little more at ease.

“To be honest, someone in the family has actually been poisoned by this before!”

“Are you talking about my brother?” Wang Mingjiang thought of something and asked, “Back then, you all said that something had happened to him, but you didn’t say what had happened to him. Could it be that he was also poisoned?”

When Minister Wu heard his son talking about this, tears streamed down his face and he nodded sadly.

“That’s right. Your brother was poisoned previously. We looked for all the famous doctors, but no one could detox him. The only way was to suppress this poison. However, the more you suppressed it, the more ferocious the next rebound would be. Your brother died from the rebound after the poison was suppressed. At that time, all of us were helpless and could only watch your brother die!”

“Since my brother died like this, why did you bring me back? Aren’t you afraid that I would be poisoned too?” Wang Mingjiang asked.

“No, you’re wrong! The reason we found you was because the doctor said that your brother had this poison since he was in his mother’s womb. Your brother was poisoned, so as your brother’s twin brother, you might have been poisoned too! That’s why we found the Wang family and hoped to bring you back!” Minister Wu said in pain, “Also, it’s not that I didn’t care about your life when I sent you to the Wang family back then. We took the initiative to send you to the Wang family!”

Li Xiaoran could sense all of Minister Wu’s emotions and saw some scenes in front of her.

During a dark night, a man was burying a newborn baby with tears in his eyes.

Just as he got up to leave, he heard a child crying on the river.

When the man saw a bamboo basket, he quickly reached out with the hoe and pulled it over.

As expected, there was a newborn baby in the bamboo basket.

The man’s face lit up. He quickly picked up the child and rushed home.

Not long after the man left with the baby, a figure quietly followed.

It wasn’t until the man returned home and agreed with his heartbroken wife to raise this child as his own that the figure quietly left.

After that, the figure returned to a rich family’s house and reported the whereabouts of the child to the main family.

This person was none other than Minister Wu.

At this point, the scene disappeared. Li Xiaoran also came back to her senses from the scenes she saw due to sympathy with Minister Wu’s intense emotions.

However, Li Xiaoran’s face turned pale.

“What happened to you?” Luo Cheng immediately realized that something was wrong with Li Xiaoran and quickly helped her up.

“I’m fine. I might have been frightened previously and feel a little uncomfortable now! I’ll sit down and rest for a while!” Li Xiaoran waved her hand and said.

Luo Cheng didn’t believe Li Xiaoran’s words at all. She wasn’t frightened before, but now that she heard from Minister Wu about what happened back then, she had become like this. There must be something he didn’t know.

“Don’t force yourself. Hurry up and sit down. I’ll get you some water. Drink two mouthfuls to moisten your throat first!” Luo Cheng said as he helped Li Xiaoran sit down on a chair.

Soon, the hot water was poured. After taking two sips, Li Xiaoran calmed down and felt much better.

As expected, this empathy ability was a double-edged sword. Every time she was triggered by intense emotions, it would cause a lot of damage to her body.

In the past, Li Xiaoran had encountered such a situation a few times in the modern world. Unexpectedly, she encountered it again this time.

Speaking of which, Li Xiaoran didn’t know if her ability to feel other people’s emotions was good or bad.

“Sister Ran, are you really alright?” Wang Mingjiang asked with concern.

“I’m fine! Don’t worry!” Li Xiaoran smiled and replied, “Minister Wu, may I ask if Wang Mingjiang’s adoptive parents were saved by you?”

Minister Wu didn’t expect Li Xiaoran to ask this, so he hesitated for a moment and finally nodded.

“Wang Xing and Fang Yue did fall off the cliff, but I’d been sending people to look for them. They were lucky. After they fell, they got caught on the branches of a big tree. When I got someone to save them, the couple was unconscious!”
