The Legacy System

Chapter 457 - 457: Young Master Gao Is Poisoned

At first Madam, Li thought that her son was coughing due to the extreme anger towards the shamelessness of those people, but soon she found out that she was wrong.

Not only was her son coughing hard, but there were also traces of blood on his cough all of a sudden, clearly indicating that there was something wrong with his body.

After the beating he got from Cui Xie, her son was already in a delicate situation, and she was extremely panicky about it. Right now, she felt that panic take over her heart once again, as she screamed,

"Fa'er call the doctor and ambulance immediately!"

Then turning towards the coughing son, she started looking at him full of worry and pain as she asked with a trembling voice, trying to keep her tears from falling,

"My son, are you okay my son!? What is going on? What is wrong with you?"

Her sudden explosive voice managed to disturb the peace and calm of the whole mansion, as servants and maids started preparing everything for the ambulance and the medics.

As the whole mansion was thrown into chaos, Madam Li's little sister was actually conversing with young Chef Chen at a covered corner of the mansion.

After getting out of the dining room full of anger and rage, she had come across the young Chef who had asked her,

"Are you okay Miss? Did something happen?"

At first, she could only look at the guy with a weird look and expression on her face, as the young Chef seemed to have realized his mistake and said hurriedly,

"Ah~! I am sorry if I seem too nosy, it wasn't my intention to meddle into the family's private matters, it's just that you seemed angry and upset!"

For some weird reason, seeing him like that made her anger and stress disperse a bit, and thinking about her plans, she couldn't help but say in a bossy voice,

"Follow me!"

The young chef seemed to be quite perplexed with her actions, and words. Still, he did as he was ordered and followed behind her as they arrived at the secluded corner.

The moment that the beauty noticed that there was no one around them, she turned around and without any warning actually threw herself into his arms and kissed him.

The young Chef was clearly caught unprepared and surprised by the sudden attack, especially enjoying the taste of her lips, and the soft attack of her body.

It took a little bit of time for him to recompose himself from the startle and pull back, as he said with a panicky voice,

"Miss Li I don't think is appropriate for us to do something like this! Please respect yourself and me!"

"Oh, why not!? Is it because you are having a clandestine relationship with that sl*ut Gao Ruo? Or is it due to your relationship with that cute maid?

Don't tell me that you are going to pretend to be a saint that has been forced into that, will you!?"

"How do you…"

"How do I know about it? Really simple, I have followed you!

But I think that you already know about this, as it's impossible for someone like you to not understand when he is being followed, and I wasn't trying to hide myself either!

Shouldn't you stop acting like an innocent and naïve kid already?"

She said those words with full conviction, and confidence in herself, while looking at the young Chef with an expression saying, you can't fool me.

Hearing those words and seeing that look the young Chef's aura changed completely. From a weak and innocent pushover, he turned into a sharp and confident weapon, as he said,

"Oho~! So you realized it! You seem extremely talented, or should I say just as expected!?"

"You can say whatever you want, I don't care much about that! But since you decided to drop acting, then I will do the same.

The Li family is interested to work with you, and we are willing to provide you with any conditions as long as you enter our family!"

"Wow~! Those are some heavy promises beauty but are those the words of your Li family's Patriarch, or just yours!"

"While I was responsible for the scouting and reporting to the family, I wouldn't dare to say those words easily.

Those are the words of the Patriarch, and the Elders!"

"Even if I ask for Li YunMu!?"

"What!?"

"You heard me! Perhaps you don't know about this already, but my relationship with her isn't any different from the one I have with my cute maid!

As for Gao Ruo! Well, let us just say that it's a benefits relationship, even though it's more her using me to cover her tracks!"

"You… No wonder! No wonder she got angry at me for asking to use a honey trap on you! It seems like she has dipped her fingers already!"

"Don't be disappointed though, I have no intention of letting you off if you want to join! After all, they do say that the more the merrier!"

"Don't you think that you are being a bit overly greedy right now? Do you think that she will accept something like that?"

"Well it does depend on the value I hold in the eyes of your Li family! So, do you think that your Patriarch will agree to this arrangement?"

"I don't know, I will have to send news back, but I sure do wish they accept it!"

The last words were said as a whisper on the young Chef's ear to entice and sensualize him, but the young Chef didn't seem much affected, as he returned the favor by whispering into her ear,

"By the way that is just to make me enter the negotiations! Later we will have to decide upon a more detailed deal!"

"Your appetite is certainly big!"

"It's because I know my own value! Isn't that why your Li family is going so far for me?"

But as they were discussing like that, they suddenly heard the scream coming from Madam Li, and they both run towards the room of the Young Master Jian.

Since the shout was unexpected and quite loud, the whole mansion was thrown into chaos, and quite a few members of the Gao family run in that direction.

Each and every one with different thoughts, and motives, but no one dared to actually stop the little sister of Madam Li and the young Chef behind her.

On the last corner towards the room, they even unwillingly bumped with the aspiring new family head of the Gao family, Gao Tianji, and his princess daughter.

"Youu… How dare you bump into us!? Are you tired of living, or are you trying to kill the heir of the Gao family in my daughter's womb?

Are you so heartless as to try and end the Gao family line? Did Li YunMu tell you to do something like this?"

The young Chef Chen was clearly speechless hearing all that bullshit, but his position and standing didn't allow him to talk back.

The only one who could say something in this situation was only the little sister of Madam Li, Li Yao, who clearly didn't have the time to waste fighting with Gao Tianji, and told the young Chef behind her,

"Please go and have a look at my nephew! I will make sure that no one disturbs you in the meantime!"

Her words clearly surprised Gao Tianji and his daughter, while the Young Chef only nodded his head solemnly, and made a beeline towards Gao Jian's room.

Inside the room he found Li YunMu keeping him in her embrace, while trying to ask what was wrong with him, and without losing time he approached them and said in a bossy tone,

"Let him lie down, and step back, I will have a look on him!"

"You…"

"Now is not the time to talk, step back!"

Unconsciously for some reason, Li YunMu did as she was told, and quickly stepped back, while the young Chef grabbed Young Master Gao Jian's wrist and checked upon his condition.

Immediately the young Chef Chen's face went serious, dark, and gloomy as he said with a serious voice,

"He has been poisoned!"

"What!?"

But Madam Li didn't have much time to think or react, as at that moment Gao Tianji managed to push his way towards the room, as he asked in a faked worried voice,

"What is going on here!? What happened to my nephew!? Who is responsible for this?"

In a matter of seconds, Young Master Jian's room had turned into something similar to a fish market, with a lot of whispers and rumors around.

Without even bothering to answer to Gao Tianji, the young Chef Chen quickly took a piece of paper and a pen writing a bunch of herb names, and handed it over to Madam Li saying,

"I need these materials in 2 hours if you want him to survive!"

Madam Li was still a bit startled from the current situation and the young Chef's quick moves. Even more so from the fact that he came here together with her little sister.

For some odd reason, she was extremely jealous and angry at the two of them, and she wanted to throw a fit of rage. But her son's life was much more important at the moment.

Before she could say a thing though, she heard Gao Tianji scream from beside her,

"How dare you threaten our family with the life of my nephew!? Are you tired of living!?

Quickly capture this bastard and tie him up!"
