Chapter 261 Poisoned
Shen Lan was slightly stunned. After thinking about it carefully, she realized that she had indeed not seen any cats or dogs in the Xiao family for the past month. It turned out that it was because Xiao Yun didn't like them.
"Okay, I'll be there right away."
She put down the dish in her hand and wanted to ask the maid to help her take it to the dining room, but before she could open her mouth, she saw the maid running out of the kitchen, waving at her anxiously.
"Ms. Shen, come quickly. We'll meet you on the second floor. Get the cat down quickly."
Looking anxious and frightened, it seemed that he was really afraid that Xiao Yun would get angry.
"Here they are." She put down the food in her hand and followed him out. Sure enough, she saw a group of people gathered at the stairs.
When those people saw her, they were like seeing a savior, and hurriedly said, "Miss Shen, before the young master comes back from running, go upstairs and get the cat down."
"If the young master knew that there was a wild cat on the third floor, we would be finished."
These people were talking at once and making so much noise that it hurt Shen Lan's ears.
She quickly made a hushed gesture and soothed him, "Don't worry, my door is closed, the cat shouldn't be able to get out. You guys will meet me at the third floor stairs later, and we'll finish this quickly."
The servants nodded in unison, their expressions solemn. Shen Lan almost laughed out loud at their solemn appearance.
How much does Xiao Yun hate cats that he could scare the servants like this?
Cats are so cute.
At the same time, Shen Lan also felt strange. Xiao Yun liked to rub and knead her whenever he was with her. He must like this soft and cute creature very much.
Is it because of cat hair allergy?
She went up to the third floor with all sorts of thoughts in her mind, opened the door carefully, and sure enough, saw a fat orange cat squatting on the carpet in the middle of the room.
Shen Lan glanced at the balcony and saw the broken flowerpot and the jasmine flowers with their roots hanging out. She twitched her lips in pain.
How did this fat cat manage to climb up to the third floor with its short legs and chubby body? It looked like it was struggling to walk!
Fortunately, the cat did not run around after entering the room. It only left a row of black footprints on the ground and then lay down on the furry carpet.
Shen Lan took off the feather ornament on the wall to use as a cat toy, shook it towards Daju, and subconsciously raised her voice: "Mimi, come to your sister, there are delicious things."
She has had a good relationship with animals since she was a child, and is quite popular with kittens and puppies. After shaking its feathers a few times, the big orange cat dragged its chubby body towards her.
Shen Lan's eyes lit up and he waved the feathers in his hand faster.
While she was concentrating on seducing Daju, an unremarkable-looking maid stared at the direction of the stairs and quietly sneaked into the kitchen.
The servants nearby were distracted by the big orange cat and gathered at the stairs to help, which was a good opportunity for her.
The kitchen and the surrounding area are empty at the moment, which is a perfect opportunity... Although it will cost some money, as long as it is completed, you can gain a lot.
The maid was thinking excitedly when she suddenly heard a sound coming from the kitchen. She looked up and was stunned.
After she realized what was happening, her pupils shrank and her face turned pale: "Doctor Wang, you, why are you eating the young master's breakfast!"
Yes, Wang Ling had slipped into the kitchen at some point.
He was sleepy, with two big dark circles under his eyes, his hair was disheveled, and his handsome face was a little pale at the moment. It was obvious that he stayed up late again last night.
In fact, Wang Ling didn't want to stay up late. He read a pharmaceutical-related paper last night and got some inspiration, so he was busy all night.
He had just lain down ten minutes ago, but his stomach was rumbling with hunger. Wang Ling had no other choice but to get out of bed and head to the kitchen to find something to eat.
Unexpectedly, I got so lucky that I saw Shen Lan had just finished cooking a dish but had not yet served it out. There was also millet porridge in the casserole.
It’s just right for him to eat now.
Before the maid arrived, Wang Ling had already scooped himself a bowl of porridge and drank it all while standing there, slurping it.
My stomach feels warm and comfortable at this moment, but...
Wang Ling clicked his tongue and savored the taste of the millet porridge carefully.
It was fragrant and sticky, just like Shen Lan's usual quality. However, for some reason, the aftertaste was a bit bitter, and there was a faint medicinal smell.
Wang Ling has some knowledge of traditional Chinese medicine, but not much.
He guessed that some nourishing herbs must have been added to it.
As he was thinking about it, he suddenly frowned, covered his stomach, and a trace of pain appeared on his face.
The servant was so frightened that his hands and feet were shaking. He quickly ran over to support him and said, "Doctor Wang, what's wrong with you?"
"My stomach hurts."
Wang Ling spoke with great difficulty, his face was extremely pale, and beads of sweat the size of beans appeared on his forehead. He looked extremely painful.
As he spoke, a trace of blood oozed from the corner of his mouth.
The maid's legs began to go weak and she was in a panic. She heard footsteps outside the kitchen again. She gritted her teeth, made up her mind, and suddenly shouted loudly.
"Oh no, oh no, someone come quickly! Doctor Wang got poisoned after eating the food Miss Shen made!"
