Chapter 472: Chapter 0473: Jinling Zhao Family

The hotel manager was arranged by Director Liu to be in a separate ward, where Ye Qiu entered, first conducting an examination, and discovered that the Gu poison had already entered his brain, putting him in a very critical condition.

After Ye Qiu completed the full absorption, having absorbed all the Gu poison from the manager’s body, the hotel manager slowly regained consciousness, opened his eyes, and seeing only Ye Qiu, he seemed rather puzzled.

"Why am I here?"

He only remembered being isolated and investigated by the inspection personnel, and then being sent to Jinling Hospital for treatment.

When Ye Qiu opened the door of the ward, and Director Liu and Zhao Ruxue came in, they found that the hotel manager, who had just been at death’s door, had been completely cured.

"This is my work badge."

Zhao Ruxue took out her work badge to show the hotel manager.

"I don’t know anything."

About this mass poisoning incident, he truly didn’t know anything; everything was so baffling, as guests invited by Ye Qiu and even the hotel staff, including himself, were all poisoned.

To suggest that he or the hotel’s staff had administered the poison, he felt it was certainly impossible.

"Who is responsible for transporting waste at your logistics department?"

Zhao Ruxue asked.

When she showed the hotel manager the printed suspicious shadow, he shook his head after looking at it and said, "I don’t recognize this person. Our hotel’s waste is outsourced to others, who come every night for routine pickup."

"Which company is it outsourced to?"

"I need to check to be sure."

Soon, the hotel manager realized that he had been saved by Ye Qiu, but as for his colleagues or subordinate staff, they might not be so lucky.

Zhao Ruxue asked many questions before finally leaving the hospital with Ye Qiu.

Stepping outside the hospital, Zhao Ruxue still felt a headache; she thought this case was very difficult to investigate.

However, she knew that solving this case wouldn’t happen in a day or two.

"Where to now?"

Ye Qiu asked.

"Let’s go to my place first."

All of Zhao Ruxue’s belongings were in the car with Ye Qiu, and she planned to take them back to the Zhao family home; she couldn’t keep inconveniencing Ye Qiu by having him drive her around.

The Zhao family’s private garden mansion was located in the QH District, which had always been Jinling’s most prosperous area since ancient times, and now it was surrounded by skyscrapers.

In the heart of Jinling, having a private garden mansion to oneself certainly wasn’t simple.

As Ye Qiu drove toward the Zhao family home, Zhao Ruxue took out her phone to call her mother, Li Rong.

"Mom, I’m planning to come home and stay."

"Come home and stay?"

Li Rong was surprised.

Ever since Zhao Ruxue graduated, she had not lived at the Zhao family home, and furthermore, she was staying in the Peach Blossom Source Residential Area in Jiangbei. Although she and her husband had paid for the apartment, if it wasn’t for major holidays, Zhao Ruxue and her sister rarely went back.

It was unexpected that Zhao Ruxue, the elder daughter, would actually want to come back to stay.

"Mom, I’ll explain when I get there."

Following the navigation, Ye Qiu quickly arrived at the entrance of the Zhao family’s private garden mansion in the QH District, and as he parked the car, there were Zhao family security guards watching at the gate.

The security guard hurried to let her through when he saw it was the Zhao family’s young miss returning.

A few days ago, the license plate hanging on Ye Qiu’s car made waves throughout Jinling, and anyone who saw the news knew it was auctioned off at a high price by a young man and a Zhao family miss.

Originally, it was Zhao Rubing who went with Ye Qiu to the auction, but now it was Zhao Ruxue who had returned with Ye Qiu. The guards didn’t know this and, seeing Ye Qiu with Zhao Rubing, they assumed it was these two who had participated in the auction together.

As Ye Qiu drove into the Zhao Family’s private garden, he realized that it took ten minutes of driving before he was able to park in the private garden’s parking lot.

"How big is this place?"

Ye Qiu asked.

"Tens of thousands of square meters, I guess!"

Nowadays, those villas, along with their front and back gardens, are a few thousand square meters, which is already quite large, even more so if it’s four or five thousand square meters.

But the Zhao Family’s private garden spans tens of thousands of square meters, not to mention the area of this place.

After Ye Qiu stopped the car, opened the trunk, took down Zhao Ruxue’s suitcase, and closed the trunk, Zhao Ruxue led Ye Qiu toward where her parents and she lived.

The area was vast, but there were also several hundred members of the Zhao family living here, practically amounting to a small residential area.

Some of the Zhao family members recognized Zhao Ruxue when they saw her return, while others did not and mistook her for Zhao Rubing.

However, whether it was Zhao Ruxue or Zhao Rubing, no one expected that she would now bring a plainly dressed, unfamiliar young man here.

And clearly, it was this young man who had driven the car in.

"Don’t mind those people."

Although those living here were all Zhao family members, and more or less related by blood or otherwise related, Zhao Ruxue and her sister did not have a good impression of these relatives.

After walking for fifteen minutes with Ye Qiu, Zhao Ruxue saw a semi-circular lotus pond ahead, featuring a nine-turn bridge and a pavilion. This place was extraordinarily peaceful and elegant, a true example of Jiangnan architectural garden style.

Over at the Peach Blossom Source Residential Area, at most, it was a mix of Jiangnan garden style and European style, entirely different from the classical Jiangnan architecture displayed here.

"Mom."

Zhao Ruxue called out.

Ye Qiu had already seen a woman, presumably in her forties, dressed in the most famous Jiangnan silk, stepping out from inside.

The most renowned product of Jiangnan is silk, and genuine luxury silk is more expensive than gold. Ordinary people usually wear synthetic fabrics, but this middle-aged woman’s attire was of extremely smooth silk, and in this weather, she didn’t seem to feel hot at all.

"Why have you come to stay?"

Li Rong found it strange.

"Mom, I’ve been seconded to work on a case at the City Police Bureau and might be staying here for quite a long time."

So that was the reason. Li Rong had thought Zhao Ruxue encountered some trouble. Of course, she was naturally very happy to have Zhao Ruxue come to stay and see her more often, as any mother would be.

She had already noticed the young man by Zhao Ruxue’s side, an ordinary-looking fellow who nonetheless seemed not the least bit intimidated, quite different from other young men.

"Is this Doctor Ye?"

Li Rong occasionally heard Zhao Rubing and Zhao Ruxue mention Ye Qiu’s name and knew that he had treated the two sisters.

"Auntie, my name is Ye Qiu."

"So you are Doctor Ye. I must say, I didn’t expect someone so young to have such incredible medical skills. Please, come in, and I’ll prepare some Longjing tea for you."

Li Rong asked a maid to prepare Longjing tea, then had her bring over the tea and water for steeping.

While Ye Qiu and Zhao Ruxue first went to her room to put down the suitcase, Zhao Ruxue said, "I seldom come back to stay, but my mother always makes sure it’s kept very clean."
