After rejecting my celebrity husband

Chapter 1173: Chapter 1177: Discovery of the Golden Courtyard (2)

Leng Zirui took the iron box, opened it, and retrieved the letter. Upon seeing the first few sentences, a slight gravity appeared in his eyes.

He read it carefully from start to finish, stopping at the last two letters, ”ZM”.

ZM?

Returning the letter to the iron box, Leng Zirui was about to speak when a staff member rushed up, ”General, we found this in Tang Ming’s room.”

Leng Zirui turned his head and saw the person holding a vial of medicine. ”What is it?”

”A type of sedative, colorless and odorless, can easily dissolve in any liquid, and after ingestion, it can quickly put someone into a deep sleep state,” the person answered.

Leng Zirui took the vial and examined it. Only half the bottle remained, indicating a significant amount had been used. Why would Tang Ming keep such a sedative at home?

”What is the metabolism time for this sedative?”

”About a week.”

”Chuangchuan, call the police immediately, check Seo Fei’s blood and urine for traces of this sedative.” Leng Zirui handed the vial back to his subordinate. ”Inform me immediately of any results. I need to go home for dinner now.”

Tonight’s dinner was very significant for the Leng Family, and he couldn’t miss it.

”Yes!” Seo Shaochuan promptly agreed, then handed him the car keys.

...

...

Leng Family.

The spacious living room was especially lively tonight, with a few young people sitting on the sofa chatting with Leng Lin, while Luo Jun and Qin Wanwan played games, running up and down the stairs.

Luo Xiaoqian was ”kidnapped” on the sofa by several people, and worried about Leng Zimo’s arm, which had just had its cast removed, she occasionally glanced towards the kitchen. Unable to resist, she finally stood up, ”You all chat, I’ll go check the kitchen.”

”No way!” Huangfu Ruo laughed, pulling her arm and guiding her back to the sofa. ”Tonight’s dinner must be made by Brother Zimo himself. After all, he used to bully our Xiao Qian like that, right?!”

”Exactly!” Qin Lan immediately laughed, ”This time, I’m firmly on my wife’s side!”

”Me too!” Tong Ya also laughed in agreement.

”I agree as well,” Shen Yizhou laughed, taking up the conversation. ”This guy even dared to threaten me in the hospital, saying the ship would wreck and people would perish. Tonight, let’s have Mr. Emperor Leng take good care of us, Leng Zimo...” He raised his voice, ”Don’t just focus on cooking, bring out some fruit!”

”The fruit is here.”

Leng Zimo, wearing an apron, responded while carrying out a fruit platter, filled with beautifully cut fruits.

Just then, the doorbell rang, and he turned to open the door.

Outside, Jiao Yang was holding toys and a gift box. Seeing Leng Zimo opening the door, he smiled, ”This is the first time I’ve seen you in this attire!”

”Xiao Qian, Mo Mo!” Leng Zimo stepped aside to make way, taking the gift from his hand, ”Look who’s here!”

Upon hearing his voice, Luo Xiaoqian immediately stood up from the sofa, heading towards the entrance. Seeing Jiao Yang enter, she quickly approached, yet, when she saw his smiling face, she was momentarily at a loss for words.

”Mom!” Luo Jun ran over, stopping beside Luo Xiaoqian, and looked at Jiao Yang standing in the hallway, ”I know, you must be Uncle Jiao Yang, right?”

Jiao Yang lowered his face, looking at the exquisitely carved little fellow in front of him, ”I also know, you must be Mo Mo, right?”
