The Fourth Lady novel Chapter 18

Listening to Qingyan, Wei Yun still wanted to slap her, but she could only feel the concentrated pain in her palm.

When she opened her hand, she saw that her palm was completely dark purple. This was an obvious indication of poisoning.

Wei Yun looked to Qingyan and screamed, "Su Qingyan what did you do to me!!"

Su Qingyan quickly glanced over the audience and looked back to Wei Yun, "Just now, it was obviously you that came looking for me, I didn't do anything."

Du Yulin, with both arms crossed, sneered at Qingyan, "I really didn't think that the great Su manor fourth miss would use such a despicable trick." She turned her gaze back to Su Qingyuan next to her, "Yuan'er, sure didn't expect that your fourth sister knew this kind of witchcraft."

Su Qingyuan disappointedly shook her head, "I never thought that fourth sister was this kind of person either." However, her tone reflected her eagerness to rejoice at other's misfortunes.

"What happened here?"

A gentle voice sounded. When everyone turned their head, they saw a man clad in black heading towards them. And he was precisely this lecture's teacher–Mo Hen.

Before Mo Hen could even speak up again, Wei Yun's voice sounded once more. She hid behind Mo Hen and pitifully said, "Teacher Mo you've come at the right time, Su Qingyan is trying to kill me, look." As she said this, she earnestly showed Mo Hen her dark purple palm.

Su Qingyan looked to Mo Hen carrying a faint smile; her clearcut voice sounded, "Teacher Mo, earlier it was Miss Wei that came to bother me first, if you say that it was I that poisoned her, then you need to bring out some evidence."

Su Qingyan's overbearing appearance made Mo Hen furrow his brows. In his memory, Su's fourth miss, although unable to keep up with lectures and was Bogu Hall's laughing stock, but she always had a cowardly demeanor. When did she become this aggressive?

Before Mo Hen could even mediate the conflict between the two, her voice entered his ears once again, "Teacher Mo, aside from this bracelet, I don't have anything on me. I'm completely empty handed."

Qingyan with a smile of confidence, shocked everyone in the audience. When did Su Qingyan become like this?

"Fourth sister if you really did harm Miss Wei, then you need to apologize and make amends." Su Qingyuan, seeing how everyone was looking at Su Qingyan, kindly spoke out.

"Big sister." Su Qingyan raised her voice pitifully, "It would've been fine someone else had said that, but I'm your younger sister, how could you wrongly accuse me like that."

Su Qingyuan didn't expect that Su Qingyan would say something like that. After staring at Qingyan for a moment, she spoke, "Fourth sister, I was just being considerate."

Seeing Wei Yun's appearance, Su Qingyan silently counted in her head: '1, 2, 3', and before anyone could react, Wei Yun had already collapsed.

Mo Hen, upon seeing this, could only let the students disperse and then let someone call a doctor to come treat Wei Yun.

The doctor told Mo Hen that Wei Yun was poisoned, and that the it was the poison of a banded krait. There's no antidote for this kind of poison. This was the same as directly telling Mo Hen to make funeral arrangements.

Mo Hen knew that for something like this to have happened at school, he needed to take responsibility. But the only thing he could do was to send someone to inform the parents.

Seeing the sick and frail Wei Yun, her parents could only accept their fate and take her back. They didn't even bother asking who it was that made their daughter like this; she was just a daughter of a concubine after all. For them, it was the same whether she'd died or not.

"Qingyan, are you alright?" Luo Yixin walked up next to her and worryingly asked, "Wei Yun is like that, even if she died, it doesn't have anything to do with you."
