Chapter 443 Who poisoned me
Butler Luo gave Yun Ci a harsh look and said coldly, "What's going on?"

Zhizhi was anxious and wanted to speak up for Yunci, but was stopped by Yunci.

She saw that everyone was so scared that they lowered their heads. Only Yun Ci looked directly into Butler Luo's eyes and answered calmly, "This bowl of soup is poisonous."

Xiaoqing next to him immediately started yelling, "Butler Luo, don't listen to her nonsense. There is no poison in this soup. She is just trying to slander me!"

Butler Luo walked up to Yun Ci and scanned him from head to toe with a sharp gaze: "Why are you covering your face!"

"My face was burned." Yun Ci answered slowly.

Housekeeper Luo was stunned for a moment, somewhat surprised at Yun Ci's calmness. She had managed many girls before, but this was the only one that surprised her.

Butler Luo glanced at the soup in Xiaoqing's hand and asked in a warning tone: "You said this soup is poisonous? You are talking nonsense, slandering others, and delaying the meal of several important people in Ziteng Garden. You will be severely punished!"

Yun Ci picked up the spoon, scooped up a spoonful of soup, and handed it directly to Butler Luo.

Everyone's eyes widened, frightened by Yun Ci's outrageous behavior.

Yun Ci held up the spoon and said calmly, "She has cooked this bowl of soup several times. She used the same ingredients every time, including the seasonings, all according to the scale. But the color of this bowl of soup today is different."

As he spoke, he stirred the soup with a spoon again: "Besides, it has become sticky. What else could it be except poison?"

Butler Luo stared at the soup in the bowl swirling with the spoon, frowning and looking up at Xiaoqing next to Yun Ci: "What did you add in it?"

Xiao Qing was terrified and quickly denied it: "No, no, I just made it the same way as before, without adding anything extra!"

Butler Luo looked at Yun Ci again, but his eyes were no longer cold and contemptuous, but more curious and scrutinizing: "So, you think she was the one who poisoned you."

Xiaoqing suddenly shouted in panic: "Butler Luo, even if you give me a hundred courage, I would never dare to poison it. How could she know that it is poisonous with just her eyes? This must be nonsense." Butler Luo did not say anything, but just gave an order to the guard behind him. The guard left the kitchen and came back in not long after, holding a live squeaking mouse in his hand.

The guard held the mouse down and fed it a mouthful of soup. Soon, the mouse began to struggle desperately. The guard threw the mouse to the ground. The mouse didn't even have the strength to escape. It just kept rolling on the ground. Then, it turned over on its belly, and its limbs twitched twice. It stopped moving and making noises, and stared with its eyes as big as beans.

The guard kicked twice with his toes and reported to Butler Luo: "He's dead."

The girls watching nearby screamed in fright.

“It’s really poisonous…”

"Who poisoned her? Could it really be..."

Everyone looked at Xiaoqing with questioning eyes.

Xiao Qing's face turned pale, and she was covered in cold sweat. She cried, "It's not me... It's really not me. I didn't do anything."

"It's not her." At this time, Yun Ci's cold voice sounded.

Butler Luo lied and raised his chin, motioning Yun Ci to continue.

Yun Ci scooped up the meatballs from the bowl and said, "The color of the meat is wrong. The poison must be in the meat."

As she spoke, she walked to the door of the cold storage and knocked on it with her finger: "You can check the meat inside."
