Evil Prince, Come Play With Me Chapter 772 - Extravagance

Chapter 772: Extravagance

“Qin Shou, investigate everything suspicious right away. Leave no stone unturned,” Feng Qingtian ordered as he carried Gu Bailu back to the pink cottage.

Gu Bailu hugged him tightly. Thankfully, Feng Qingtian was always by her side.

Otherwise, she would really collapse in the face of this world.

They had protected Qian’er so well. How could she have been poisoned? Where had it come from?

Why was life so exhausting?

It was too tiring.

Gu Bailu was truly exhausted. She fell asleep in Feng Qingtian’s arms when they reached the pink cottage.

Qin Shou accepted the order and searched Mo Qian’er’s room first, but didn’t find anything out of the ordinary.

He checked the house from top to bottom, but didn’t find any clues at all.

Gu Bailu slept until the next day. When she woke up, she asked about the situation.

Ye Ying replied, “Qin Shou is still investigating. He hasn’t found anything yet. Mr. Xiao said that the poison used on Miss Qian’er is invisible and colorless. It doesn’t spread very quickly and isn’t harmful to Miss Qian’er’s body, but it’s very toxic to a child.

“Due to the slow spread and the low levels of toxicity, it’s very hard to detect. Mr. Xiao said that he can’t confirm when she was poisoned.”

In other words, even Xiao Xiao hadn’t detected it before, so they all thought that Qian’er was in good health.

“If Miss Qian’er wasn’t hurt previously, the baby might’ve been able to live longer. However, Miss Qian’er’s body suddenly sustained an injury, so there was nothing to protect the baby. That’s why it died so suddenly.”

Gu Bailu felt awful.

In other words, n.o.body knew when Qian’er had been poisoned.

It would be like searching for a needle in a haystack.

Gu Bailu’s first thought was of Su Muwei.

She was the person who wouldn’t want Qian’er to have the baby the most.

However, Su Muwei had always a.s.sumed that Lu Fenying got Qian’er pregnant in order to use the baby to treat Su Muwei.

She definitely wouldn’t have done anything to Qian’er in the past. Could it be that she had no choice but to let Qian’er go this time, but she was worried and afraid that Qian’er’s child would return in the future to fight for the throne with her own child, so she made a move?

But Su Muwei had no way of making contact with Qian’er at all.

Apart from her, who else could use such a covert method to harm the baby?

Whoever it was clearly didn’t mean for Qian’er to die, but didn’t want her to have the baby.

After some thought, Gu Bailu wondered if it might have to do with the royal family of Heavenly Wind Empire.

Lu Fenying was ruthless and sinister. He had never cared about consequences, nor would he leave room for discussion. Many people hated him.

Who knew if there were slaves in the crown prince’s residence who didn’t want him to have heirs?

They had no grudge with Qian’er, so had only targeted the baby.

“Is it a common poison?” asked Gu Bailu.

Ye Ying said, “No. Because of how undetectable it is, it has always been used to kill heirs. It was used often in the royal palace before, but when things started to get out of control, the drug maker was hunted down. He escaped, and he and the drug were never seen again.”

“What’s it called?”

“Because the poison is very expensive, it’s called Extravagance.”

Gu Bailu frowned. This creepy poison was truly intimidating.

How many mothers and children had been harmed?

It was truly an invisible killer that prevented so many lives from seeing the light of this world.

She subconsciously touched her belly. Had she also been poisoned?
