Bai Jing’s gaze was cold and terrifying. “Are you worried about Little Chen’s condition? Or do you want to find some random reason to teach me a lesson? !”
“Give him a few nutrients every day and let him suffer from his illness, but pretend not to see it… is this your worry?”
Her sharp words exposed the layers of lies in Bai Guangcai. Seeing him speechless, she clenched her fists.
Seeing this, Bai Yue quickly ran to Bai Guangcai’s side and patted his arm gently. As if she was trying to smooth things over, she said, “Jing Jing, don’t get angry and quarrel with dad. We all know that if you want to save Little Chen, we want to as well!”
“I’m a medical student. I know that the development of a drug must go through a strict experimental process before it can be used in a clinical trial.”
“If Xiao Chen were to take something that you made so recklessly, it would prolong his illness. There might be other serious consequences.”
“Daddy said a few words for your own good! He was worried that you would do something bad out of kindness!”
Bai Yue’s light words ignited the anger that had just been extinguished again!
“Look at how much more sensible your sister is than you!”
Bai Jing snorted and looked at Bai Yue. “You spent so much money to earn a bachelor’s degree in medicine, so that you know all this. It must be hard on you!”
“Have you ever been in a laboratory? Do you know what kind of medicine can cause side effects and damage to the body?”
“If you can’t do it, don’t think that everyone is like you. Only knowing how to copy papers and earn diplomas.”

Bai Jing maintained her usual cold voice. Every word she said was true. Bai Yue couldn’t refute her sarcasm and could only glare at her fiercely!
“You, you, you, you! This family can’t tolerate you anymore. Get out! Don’t let me see you again!”

Bai Guangcai was so angry that he glared at her. He pointed at the door and shouted.
On the stairs, Qi Mei heard that the conflict had escalated. She came out and pretended to be gentle as she tried to persuade Bai Jing, “Jing Jing, Bai Chen has been out for too long. He will freeze. Take him back quickly. As for the medicine, since you insist, we will do it according to your wishes!”
“How can dad not care about Little Chen? He just has a bad temper. It’s easy for you to misunderstand what he says!”
“From now on, you’ll be in charge of Little Chen’s treatment. If you need anything, just let us know. We’re all willing to help.”
Qi Mei made the decision on her own. Bai Guangcai opened his mouth to scold her, but Qi Mei secretly held his arm and shook her head. It seemed like she had other plans.
Bai Jing looked at the three people in front of her coldly. She even found it interesting. Each of them had their own dirty thoughts and schemes, trying to squeeze the last bit of value out of Bai Chen and her. How could they be so kind?
What exactly did she want?
Bai Jing vaguely felt that Qi Mei was up to something.
“Sister, it’s cold.” Bai Chen opened his eyes and coughed lightly.
Bai Jing didn’t have time to think about it. She stepped over the debris on the floor and carried him back to the bedroom. She used physical cooling methods to relieve his pain.

Late at night, Bai Chen slept soundly.
Bai Jing left quietly. When she returned to the room, she keenly caught the sound of a conversation in the living room. She stopped in her tracks.
The dim floor lamp cast their shadows on the snow-white walls. They were distorted, slanted, and ferocious. They looked like their ugly souls!

“Mom! Why did you keep Bai Jing? You could have chased her away when you had the chance!”
Bai Yue held the glass in her hand and asked unwillingly.
Qi Mei was in her nightgown, brewing the sleeping tea for Bai Guangcai. She looked at her daughter, who could not keep her composure, and said, “Bear with it for a few more days. Bai Chen’s illness is in its final stages, and he can’t take it anymore. When her medicine really kills Bai Chen, we’ll chase her away…”
“When that time comes, without Bai Chen and without her, Song Nianci’s inheritance will be ours.”

Bai Yue was surprised. After she understood what was going on, she smiled greedily. She put the glass aside and hugged Qi Mei, saying, “Mom! You’re the smartest!”
Qi Mei laughed sinisterly. “I’ve already left the bottle as a sample of the medicine she gave Bai Chen.”
“After Bai Chen dies, I’ll bring it to the relevant departments for analysis and find a few media outlets to expose what she did…”
“When the time comes, we’ll send her to jail. Then everything will be fine!”
Bai Jing listened to their plans and saw Qi Mei’s disgusting face. Her fingers dug into the wooden escalator, but she didn’t feel any pain.

So, Song Nianci had left a huge inheritance for her children…
But they wanted to seize it and even kill the siblings?
Bai Jing suddenly raised the corners of her lips.. A hint of viciousness flashed in her eyes. “Dream on!”
