Chapter 142: Chapter 142 Autopsy Report

After dinner, Qiao Yi and Lu Yanchuan went to the study together, with Mr. Qu’s autopsy report placed in front of them.

“Due to the medication, the heart failed to function in a short time? The apparent manifestation is similar to cardiac arrest?”

This autopsy report was dated the day after the old housekeeper disappeared, and by the time Lu Yanchuan found the old housekeeper, five whole days had already passed since his death.

According to the autopsy report, the old housekeeper died from taking the wrong medication, which had effects similar to stimulants, but an overdose could cause the heart to overwork and abruptly stop.

The reason why the report Lu Yanchuan obtained did not contain this medication is that it naturally decomposes into normal trace elements within the human body within ten hours of entering, making it undetectable.

Although the old housekeeper lost his life signs due to the medication, the body’s activity did not affect the drug’s decomposition, so it was not until Gong Yan produced this autopsy report that they finally learned the true cause of the old housekeeper’s death.

“Overdosing on medication, Mr. Qu indeed was taking medication, but definitely not this kind of banned substance. Who could have mixed this drug into Mr. Qu’s medication?”

“It might also be that someone deliberately took Mr. Qu away and fed him the medication.”

Lu Yanchuan’s guess seemed more likely, Qiao Yi instinctively nodded, then immediately shook her head.

“I can’t think of such a thing; you go investigate it.”

Qiao Yi waved her hand and left the study, while Lu Yanchuan held the autopsy report and repeatedly read it, his gaze landing on the unknown medication when suddenly he seemed to think of something and began searching on his computer.

Old Madam Gong had stocks in a pharmaceutical company before her death…

This company mainly produces medication for treating mental illnesses!

After a good while, Lu Yanchuan, looking at the screen at the company’s partners, fell into deep thought.

“Lu Qingshan… it turns out to be Lu Qingshan…”

“What about Lu Qingshan? Does he have any connection with Old Madam Gong?”

As soon as she asked, Qiao Yi regretted it; wasn’t her question just nonsense?

Lu Yanchuan and Lu Qingshan are biological brothers, and Old Madam Gong was their mother’s close friend; Lu Qingshan was obviously well-acquainted with Old Madam Gong!

“A pharmaceutical company’s stocks that belonged to the teacher, now under Lu Qingshan’s name!”

Qiao Yi carrying a teacup, placed it beside Lu Yanchuan, then came around to look at the computer screen from behind him.

“Dianrui Pharmaceuticals… this name sounds so familiar…”

“Dianrui Pharmaceuticals mainly focuses on mental health medications, and other than the stocks held by the teacher changing owners, no one else’s shares have changed.”

If it wasn’t Lu Qingshan who bought the Dianrui stocks, then it could only have been stolen from the old lady!

Seemingly seeing through Qiao Yi’s suspicions, Lu Yanchuan added,

“This pharmaceutical company is the family business of the teacher’s maternal family; no matter what, the teacher would never sell the stocks.”

“Then it was stolen by Lu Qingshan from the old lady!”

Lu Yanchuan nodded gravely, although unaware of how Lu Qingshan had stealthily taken the stocks, now that Lu Yanchuan had found out, it was impossible to let him get away with it.

“Ah! I remember now! The Qiao Family and Dianrui have a collaboration project!”

The Qiao Family is broadly engaged in business, including pharmaceuticals, and Dianrui Pharmaceuticals is indeed part of their collaborative scope.

“It seems like it’s time to properly investigate this company.”

Qiao Yi didn’t have a good impression of Lu Qingshan’s whole family– with a Wang Zhen and a Lu Ming around, even if Lu Qingshan was meek, she doubted he would be any good!

Qiao Yi helped Yanchuan gather all the documents, but when she raised her hand, a pink card fell out from the stack.

Her eyes and hands were quick, and she grabbed the card before Yanchuan could.

“Ts ts ts, even managing to slip a perfume card within the documents, looks like our Third Young Master is really quite blessed with romance!”

The pink card emitted a faint fragrance and only had a string of digits written on it–clearly a phone number–with a little heart drawn on the back.

Such childish tactics, one couldn’t tell if this person was really that naive or purposely using such means to catch Yanchuan’s attention.

“How does Third Young Master plan to deal with this little peach blossom?”

Qiao Yi, sitting on the edge of the desk, waved the delicate card in front of Yanchuan with her slim, pale fingers, wearing a malicious smile on her face.

“Throw it away.”

Yanchuan’s throat bobbed, his gaze following Qiao Yi’s hand to where her skirt had flipped open due to her sitting posture.

The greatest benefit of a silk nightgown is how it clings to the skin. Qiao Yi, twisting her body as she sat on the desk, let her perfect curves be fully exposed to Yanchuan.

Who could withstand this!

Like a siren, Qiao Yi twisted her waist, shifting to an even more comfortable yet enticing pose, slightly leaning forward allowing Yanchuan to catch glimpses of some enticing views.

“What a waste to throw it away, Third Master wouldn’t mind if I play a little prank, right?”

Yanchuan’s mind was no longer on that little card, but filled with a stirring impulse, like pinning a certain siren down on the desk…

“Since Third Master is so generous, then I will not be polite!”

Qiao Yi leapt off the desk and ran out giggling before Yanchuan could collect himself.

The provoked yet unquenched person cheerfully, found the most despicable subordinate from his contacts, and dialed the number.

“Dezi, I’ve got a job for you…”

Since the miscarriage, Qiao Xin’s days had never been smooth.

Lu Ming’s homecoming became rarer and whenever he met her, they talked nothing but work.

After her miscarriage, Wang Zhen’s attitude had drastically changed for the worse, becoming much harsher than before, and they had nearly come to blows a couple of times.

The discord at home was one thing, but at the office, it was even worse for Qiao Xin, to the point of being targeted!

After the last time Qiao Yi caused a scene in the company linking her identity to Qiao Xin, wherever she went, Qiao Xin felt people pointing and muttering.

Moreover, she used to seize the opportunity to chat with Yanchuan when delivering documents, but since that Xiao Ting came back to the company, she hadn’t seen Yanchuan once!

Every time she went to the office, Xiao Ting would find all sorts of excuses to keep her out!

And this wasn’t even the most infuriating part, the most infuriating part was that her documents would always be sent back to be redone for various similar reasons.

Infuriated, Qiao Xin went to confront Xiao Ting, but always got the same response.

If you don’t like it, you can leave!

Before, Qiao Xin would go to the company looking forward to running into Yanchuan, but now, going to the company had turned into a nightmare for Qiao Xin!
