A Filthy-Rich Fat Cat

Prince Rui turned and left, Zhou Wanwan naturally followed suit.

The next day, Prince Rui's Consort's sister came to see her.

Carrying the food box, she looked at Prince Rui's Consort and said, "Sister, Mother cooked you a sweet soup, your favorite!"

Prince Rui's Consort looked at her and said, "I just had some sweet soup, sister. This is Wanwan; she brought all this sweet soup. Would you like a bowl too?"

Luo Qitong looked at Zhou Wanwan and said:

"No wonder my sister's been so distant lately! Turns out she's made a new friend!"

I won't drink the sweet soup; I'm just doing the task my mother gave me.

My mother said she can't leave until you finish drinking.

Zhou Wanwan smiled faintly and said, "Miss Luo, why don't you try my sweet soup and see how it compares to yours?"

Luo Qitong quickly waved her hand and said, "No need for that, I already had two bowls of this sweet soup at home!"

Luo Qitong looks very mischievous, but actually she's afraid of drinking this sweet soup.

Was she afraid the sweet soup was poisoned?

Zhou Wanwan picked up the bowl of sweet soup, took a sip, and said, "This sweet soup is steamed cheese with sugar; it tastes especially delicious."

Luo Qitong looked at the sweet soup, swallowed hard, and said, "Is it really that good? Then I'll try it!"

Zhou Wanwan picked up several bowls of sweet soup next to her and said, "Not only do we have steamed custard with sugar, but also red bean paste, honey shaved ice, and lotus and lily soup. They're all delicious!"

Luo Qitong picked up the steamed sugar-coated cheese and said, "Wow! It's really delicious."

Zhou Wanwan smiled and said, "Of course, your sister ate several bowls!"

Luo Qitong drank two large bowls of soup, then patted her stomach and said, "Sister, I'm full. Remember to drink this sweet soup. I'm going back now."

Luo Qitong skipped away, and Luo Qiwu sighed:

I've always doted on my younger sister since she was little, even though we don't share the same mother.

But I truly treated her like my own younger sister.

I really don't understand why she did this to me?

And then there's my dear mother. I've always considered her my own mother because she's always been so caring and attentive to me since my own mother passed away.

I truly considered them my family! Why did they treat me like this?

Zhou Wanwan waved her hand and said, "You let me come here to act in a play. After the play is over, I won't care about anything else!"

Prince Rui's Consort shook her head and said, "You don't need to worry about what happens next."

That evening, Prince Rui sent someone to invite Zhou Wanwan.

Zhou Wanwan walked over and said, "I've taken the money and done the show, what do you want from me?"

Prince Rui chuckled and said, "Aren't you curious about Luo Qitong's fate?"

Zhou Wanwan looked at him and said, "What's so curious about that?"

Prince Rui raised an eyebrow and said, "Here's 500 taels of silver; I'll treat you to a good show."

Zhou Wanwan reluctantly agreed; the rich guy had plenty of money.

Soon, Zhou Wanwan was sitting on the roof, watching the Luo family bustling about.

Luo Qitong was in excruciating pain. "Waaah... Mother, it hurts, my stomach hurts so much, I don't want to live anymore."

Madam Luo paced anxiously, "Where is the royal physician? Why hasn't he arrived yet?"

Soon, the imperial physicians were summoned. A group of physicians looked at Luo Qitong and shook their heads, saying, "It seems she has been poisoned. We don't have an antidote for this kind of poison."

Madam Luo said anxiously, "What should we do? You must think of something quickly! She's my only daughter, I can't live without her."

The physicians all shook their heads. One of them looked at her and said, "This is a poison from the palace. It's colorless and odorless, also known as the Qianji Poison.' Anyone who is poisoned by this will surely die."

Upon hearing this, Madam Luo collapsed to the ground.

A moment later, two boys rushed in and asked, "Mom, what happened to my sister?"

Lord Luo rushed in from outside and asked, "I heard Tongtong has been poisoned? What happened?"

Madam Luo sobbed uncontrollably:

"Tongtong went to see her sister today and brought her sweet soup, but she didn't expect it to turn out like this when she came back."

My husband, you must save Tongtong!

Lord Luo was so angry that he shouted:

"Well, Luo Qiwu, how dare you treat your own sister like this? You're worse than an animal."

I want Prince Rui to divorce her.

Prince Rui looked at the people in the room and sneered, "Let's go! My father-in-law is no good either, and I don't want my wife to suffer."

Zhou Wanwan looked at Prince Rui with envy and said, "You treat Prince Rui's Consort very well!"

Prince Rui smiled and said, "It's because my princess saved me when I was a child!"

"So that's how it is," Zhou Wanwan said, looking at him. "No wonder you treat Prince Rui's Consort so differently! Such a loving man is rare indeed!"

Zhou Wanwan is quite envious of this kind of love.

Prince Rui flicked her forehead and said:

"You little girl know way too much. We're just here to watch the show."

"I'd like to see what Lord Luo will do after he finds out about those things."

Prince Rui and Zhou Wanwan had just returned to the manor when they saw Lord Luo storming in with his men, shouting angrily, "Luo Qiwu, get out here right now!"

Prince Rui's Consort slowly emerged from the inner room, looked at him, and said, "Father, why have you come?"

Lord Luo roared:

"You wicked girl, what exactly did you feed your sister?"

She's writhing in agony in bed, you need to get the antidote right now!

Prince Rui's Consort smiled faintly and said, "What antidote? I don't have any antidote, and I don't know what happened."

Lord Luo looked at her and said, "If you don't give me the antidote today, I'll strangle you."

After saying that, Lord Luo rushed over, but was blocked by several guards.

Prince Rui's Consort looked at Lord Luo and said, "You came here without even asking what happened, and you wanted to strangle me. I'm very curious, did you know about my sister poisoning me?"

Lord Luo was taken aback for a moment and said, "You're talking nonsense! How could your sister possibly poison you? Your sister is the best to you."

Prince Rui's Consort sneered, "This bowl of sweet soup was brought by my sister. Does Father know what's in it?"

Lord Luo frowned and said, "Stop talking nonsense. This is a sweet soup your mother specially made for you, your favorite."

Prince Rui's Consort chuckled and said:

"But this good mother of mine wants to poison me and my child!"

Father, do you really not know these things?

But why is it that the investigation revealed you already knew about all of these things?

Even the deaths of my grandmother and my mother, you know about.

This was what Prince Rui's Consort couldn't stand the most, Zhou Wanwan hesitated for a long time before saying it.

Zhou Wanwan initially thought that Lord Luo was completely unaware of the situation, but after asking the plants in the study, she learned that Lord Luo knew everything.

Lord Luo, his face ashen, said, "Luo Qiwu, don't talk nonsense and tarnish the reputation of our Luo family."

Luo Qiwu laughed heartily:

"Reputation? What kind of reputation does the Luo family have?"

When Lord Luo killed his own stepmother, did he ever consider the reputation of the Luo family?
