Tyrannical Tycoon Haunts Me Relentlessly-Chapter 272: Being Framed Feels Awful

"The package wasn’t opened by me, I haven’t used it yet." Xia Yinian was telling the truth; she had casually thrown the packet of medicine into the drawer and never touched it again.

She hadn’t even figured out how she would deal with Xia Chuxue tomorrow night, and unexpectedly, trouble had already come knocking.

"Grandpa, I was the one who opened the medicine packet, I had someone take a bit to test."

Gu Ziqi stepped forward, unafraid of admitting it, as after all, she wasn’t doing anything wrong.

Tonight, the one doing wrong was Xia Yinian.

She loudly declared, "The tester reported, saying that there are hallucinatory effects in the medicine, Grandpa, Xia Yinian using this kind of medicine in our Gu Family, doing such shameful acts, she’s about to completely tarnish our family’s reputation!"

Old Master Gu’s gaze fell on Xia Yinian, he had never liked his future granddaughter-in-law.

Now, seeing this packet of medicine being found in her room, and the girl even admitting the medicine was hers, Old Master harbored even greater disdain for her.

One might ask, how could a good girl ever touch such a thing?

Even the ladies in the pleasure districts wouldn’t dare use this kind of medicine, it’s clearly a banned... medicine!

Xia Yinian was completely oblivious to the seriousness of this medicine packet, after all, she had never studied it.

But now, from the expressions on Old Master Gu and Gu Feng’s faces, she realized that the issue with this packet of medicine was even more severe than she had imagined!

That woman, Xia Chuxue, her thoughts are much more sinister than anticipated!

Such elaborate schemes!

One wrong move, and she had seized the initiative.

"Miss Niannian, do you have anything you want to say?" Gu Feng stared at Xia Yinian and asked again.

Xia Yinian indifferently said, "The medicine is mine, but even I don’t know precisely what it is, I’m just holding it for someone."

"Holding it for whom?" Gu Feng asked again, the implications behind this question were significant.

Could there be another conspiracy behind this incident?

Xia Yinian looked at Xia Chuxue, Xia Chuxue returned her gaze indifferently, the triumphant smirk at the bottom of her eyes, visible only to Xia Yinian.

Go ahead, just say it was her who gave it to her, what does it matter?

Xia Yinian has no evidence; there is nothing she needs to be afraid of.

Moreover, her Mom has "always" been with her, both human and material evidence are present, what could Xia Yinian deny?

Xia Yinian knew, since Xia Chuxue could sit quietly here, she must have already thoroughly prepared an escape route.

Without any proof, even if she accused Xia Chuxue, no one would believe her.

Moreover, today both Grandpa and Xia Chuxue’s mom have arrived, well-prepared, while she stands alone with limited power; what could she do?

Indeed, Xia Yiru looked at Old Master Gu and suddenly said, "My granddaughter has been... somewhat mischievous since childhood, I truly apologize, it’s all due to my poor guidance."

As the Xia Family’s authority figure and Xia Yinian’s grandpa, his words now effectively served as a verdict against Xia Yinian.

In front of Old Master and everyone in the Gu Family, Xia Yinian had no chance of redemption.

Xia Yinian just sneered, doing all this, even deploying grandpa and dad, was just to force her out of the Gu Family.

Suddenly, she felt like all of this had nothing to do with her anymore.

Her indifferent gaze fell on Gu Lingqian, she wasn’t despairing, wasn’t angry, and instead, she almost wanted to laugh.

All this was just to make Xia Chuxue marry him, if he could accept Xia Chuxue, wouldn’t everybody be happy?

After all, she didn’t like Gu Lingqian.

It’s just that being framed really feels terrible!
