My Dragon Baby and Billionaire Husband-Chapter 668: Yangyang Became the One That Got Away 1

After hanging up the phone, Mrs. Ying immediately called Si Mingjing to report the matter.

Mrs. Ying was actually quite heartbroken. She said, "I’ve always been reluctant to suspect my sister-in-law, but it turns out... How could she side with her husband’s family and harm her own family like this?"

Si Mingjing consoled Mrs. Ying, "You don’t have to be so upset. Perhaps your sister-in-law is unaware and is just being used by her husband’s family."

Mrs. Ying replied without much hope, "I hope you’re right; otherwise, I’ll never associate with my sister-in-law again in my life. Crown Princess Consort, could the people from the Quan Family be behind poisoning my husband? After all, our families are connected by marriage. How could they be so ruthless?"

Si Mingjing didn’t respond to Mrs. Ying’s words. She was thinking about Mo Yinhe having slain Quan Yong—had the Quan Family found out? Even if they hadn’t, the Quan Family still believed Quan Yong was killed by Si Lisao. But now, with Ye Siyuan about to marry Si Lisao, how could the Quan Family not hold a grudge? That hatred would be enough to drive them to retaliate.

She said, "Without evidence, we should not speculate wildly. I’ll keep a close watch on the Quan Family. You continue communicating with the Third Lady Quan without alerting them."

Mrs. Ying on the other end of the phone said, "I understand; I won’t alarm them." 𝐟𝕣𝗲𝕖𝕨𝗲𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝗲𝚕.𝗰𝚘𝐦

Someone wanted to poison her husband, and now Mrs. Ying stood united with Si Mingjing. She knew which side to choose.

After hanging up, Si Mingjing called Mo Yinhe to inform him of the matter.

Mo Yinhe was not surprised at all. "I suspected it was the Quan Family," he said. "Currently, only they have the motive. They might not know that I was the one who killed Quan Yong, but ever since Si Yuan’s engagement to Si Lisao was settled, the Quan Family has been very dissatisfied, often finding various ways to pressure me. I ignored them, and it seems they plan to force me to cancel the marriage through other means."

Is that so? All these twists and turns, and it all comes back to Ye Siyuan and Si Lisao?

Mo Yinhe was almost certain. "The Quan Family can’t stand the idea of Si Yuan marrying Si Lisao. Quan Yong, out of his affection for Si Yuan, attempted to ambush Si Lisao and ended up being killed by him. Now, with Quan Yong dead and Si Yuan about to marry Si Lisao, for the Quan Family, this is more galling than if they had eaten shit. They won’t let this go and will definitely join forces with other families to put pressure on me, trying to force me to cancel Si Yuan and Si Lisao’s marriage."

Sitting on the couch, Si Mingjing tilted her head and thought for a while. "I understand now."

The Quan Family’s collaboration with Qu Gaoyang had a very clear purpose from the start—to disrupt Si Yuan and Si Lisao’s wedding. They first sent Ying Min back to her maternal home, revealing her medical expertise and suggesting she could treat Ying Qiao. Mrs. Ying, considering her sworn adoptive sibling relationship with Ying Qiao, thought that if Ying Min treated him and perhaps offered some counsel, Ying Qiao might change his unhealthy lifestyle. So, Mrs. Ying contacted Ying Min through Xiaobai and arranged for her to visit the Ying Family. Qu Gaoyang received the news and lay in ambush near the Ying residence, waiting to abduct Ying Min as she left. They calculated that Mo Yinhe would not let any incident involving Ying Qiao slide, so they took the opportunity to poison him during this period. If Ying Qiao were to die from the poison, the matter would escalate significantly, making it difficult for Mo Yinhe to manage the fallout. With several major families uniting to exert pressure on him, he would inevitably have to make some political compromise. Mo Yinhe had been operating in Atlantis for many years, making it impossible to dethrone him from his position as Crown Prince. However, he would have to make political concessions for the major families to back down. Ultimately, someone would have to be sacrificed, and that person would be Si Yuan!
