1087: Chapter 1047: Poisonous Food 1087: Chapter 1047: Poisonous Food After returning to the residence, Lu Chuan tore open the lotus leaf, revealing the roasted chicken beneath.

The fragrance instantly filled the entire room.

Lu Chuan waved Dongfang Cheng over, “Come and join me, the dish tastes great.

Just smelling it is so tempting, eating it must be even better!”

Dongfang Cheng hurried over and sat down, and Lu Chuan tore off half of the chicken for him, placing it on the plate in front of him.

“That’s too much, I can’t finish it all.”

Dongfang Cheng said with a smile.

“Just eat, if you can’t finish, then leave it.”

Dongfang Cheng picked up a chicken leg and stuffed it into his mouth.

The meat was so tender it fell off the bone.

Upon tasting it, the flavor exploded in his mouth, making Dongfang Cheng involuntarily exclaim, “It really does taste amazing.

No wonder Su Yang loves it so much; they certainly didn’t skimp on the spices.”

Lu Chuan also tore off a piece of chicken leg and stuffed it into his mouth.

While chewing, Dongfang Cheng suddenly furrowed his brow.

“I don’t know why…

I feel a bit of stomach pain.”

“Is it diarrhea?” Lu Chuan asked, looking at Dongfang Cheng.

“Not really diarrhea, just some inexplicable cramps!”

“No!

No!

Could it be something wrong with the roasted chicken?”

Dongfang Cheng put down the chicken leg in his hand, his complexion turning extremely pale.

Seeing this, Lu Chuan’s expression grew stern as well.

“What exactly is going on?”

“You…

don’t you feel any stomach pain at all?”

Lu Chuan put down the chicken in his hand, and paid careful attention.

“It seems…

indeed a bit uncomfortable.”

“No!

There’s something wrong with this chicken!

It’s not a problem with your body!”

“Come with me!”

Lu Chuan grabbed Dongfang Cheng’s arm, “Let’s go and confront the vendor!”

“Don’t…

let’s forget it, the pain is so severe I don’t have the strength to walk.”

His face was pallid, drenched in sweat, lips continuously twitching.

Lu Chuan immediately lifted his left hand, channeling Nine Heavens Profound Fire into Dongfang Cheng’s lower abdomen.

Boom!!

Under the warm healing of Nine Heavens Profound Fire, Dongfang Cheng gradually felt his stomach pain easing.

“Much better!”

He hastily got up, following Lu Chuan, “Let’s go!

We need to confront that vendor!”

The two stormed out of the courtyard, just as the caretaker arrived.

“Young Master Lu, Young Master Dongfang, what urgent matter has you rushing so?”

“Caretaker, the roast chicken lying in my yard mustn’t be touched or eaten by anyone!

Understand?”

“Uh…

understood!”

The caretaker, looking puzzled at Lu Chuan.

“You better remember clearly, that chicken is poisoned, whoever eats it will die!”

The caretaker hurriedly nodded, saying nervously, “No problem, I assure you, no one will eat that chicken!”

Lu Chuan nodded and then quickly headed out with Dongfang Cheng towards the market direction.

After walking down the street, Lu Chuan from afar saw that the roasted chicken vendor had disappeared!

Lu Chuan clenched his fists and struck the nearby tree trunk.

“That guy definitely had ill intentions!

I wondered why he was reluctant to sell me the chicken, turns out he had poisoned it!”

Dongfang Cheng took a deep breath, his heart also burning with rage.

“If he was reluctant to sell to you, why then was he willing to sell to Su Changyue?”

Lu Chuan’s eyes narrowed slightly, “Perhaps…

he did it on purpose, his target, it’s not just Su Changyue but…

behind her, Su Yang!”

“But, Su Changyue said that Su Yang always ate chicken from this shop and nothing was ever wrong,”

Lu Chuan nodded slightly, “That means, the owner isn’t the murderer, but an accomplice, someone planned this!”

“So it is, could it be that bastard Wan Qingyuan?”

Lu Chuan shook his head, “I don’t know, it’s possible.

We should head to the Su Residence right now, and quickly, to prevent any mishaps!”

Lu Chuan and Dongfang Cheng quickly arrived at the entrance of the Su Residence.

The guard at the entrance of the Su Residence stopped Lu Chuan when he saw him.

“Young Master Lu, our Su family is not receiving guests today.”

Lu Chuan looked at the guard and asked, “Does that include me as well?”

“I’m sorry, no exceptions.

Although you are our benefactor and a distinguished guest of our Su family, our Family Head has issued an order that we are not accepting any outsiders into our residence now, to prevent anyone who might harm Young Master Su Yang!”

Lu Chuan sneered, “Which Family Head issued this order?

Su Jingqian?

Or Su Jingkun?”

“I cannot say!”

Lu Chuan stepped forward and grabbed the guard by the throat, gritting his teeth and said, “If you give me any more nonsense, I will chop you into mincemeat!”

“Su…

Young Master Su, what are you doing?

Are you trying to storm into our Su Residence?

Have you gone mad?”

“Mad?

You are the ones who are mad!

You actually aren’t letting me in!”

“What are you trying to do by going inside?

Are you perhaps trying to harm Young Master Su Yang?” he looked at Lu Chuan with a look of surprise.

“You dare to accuse me of that, saying I want to harm Su Yang?

Nonsense!”

Lu Chuan pushed him away; he fell heavily against the vermilion gate behind him, feeling dizzy.

“Come in with me, I want to see what kind of trickery is going on here!”

Lu Chuan stepped forward.

Soon, the caretaker who was directing servants in the front courtyard saw Lu Chuan and came over.

“Young Master Lu, how come you’re here, you’re a distinguished guest, please come in.” He smiled obsequiously.

“Caretaker, has the Su family given orders that no one can come in?”

“There is such an order, but you’re the exception, you’re Su Yang’s great benefactor, practically a second parent, how could we not let you in.”

Lu Chuan brushed off his hands, “Stop trying to cozy up to me.

Then why did the guard not allow me in just now?”

“That…I…I don’t know, why indeed?”

The caretaker looked baffled.

Lu Chuan glanced around the courtyard and said, “Where is Su Changyue?

Call her over.”

“Su Changyue?

Do you need her for something?”

“Of course, get her to come here now.

Did she buy the roast chicken?”

“Yes, she bought the roast chicken.”

“Don’t worry, I’ll go find her right now.”

The caretaker hurriedly turned and left, heading to Su Yang’s bedroom.

“Miss Su, Young Master Lu just came by in a hurry, saying he must see you!”

Su Changyue turned to look at the caretaker and said, “Tell him to wait a moment, I’m unpacking the roasted chicken.”

She skillfully placed a tray on the bed, then opened the lotus leaf-wrapped roast chicken and placed it on the tray, “You eat first, Lu Chuan is looking for me.”

“Okay, sister, send my regards to Big Brother Lu.”

“Alright.”

Su Changyue turned and left, following the caretaker to the courtyard.

“Lu Chuan, why have you come?

What’s the rush, do you need something?”

Lu Chuan quickly stood up and walked briskly to Su Changyue.

“Where is the roast chicken you bought?”

“Do you want to eat?”

“No, why would I eat your roast chicken, has Su Yang eaten it?”

Su Changyue was frightened by Lu Chuan and stepped back, “Su Yang is eating it right now, what’s wrong?

It’s not like it’s poison, why such a reaction?”
