"Um?"

Cao Guan raised his head and looked at Chen Shuang beside him.

The latter said bravely: "You are in critical condition, and I also went to the doctor in a hurry. I said that as long as Lu Chen can cure your illness, I will let them meet."

"That's all, you also have good intentions."

Cao Guan didn't care and said calmly: "It's okay to meet, but you'd better not mess around. I will send someone to keep an eye on you outside. Do you understand?"

"no problem!"

Lu Chen agreed immediately.

"An'an, take him to see your sister." Cao Guan ordered.

"Yes!" Cao Anan looked happy.

Her sister has been waiting for this opportunity, and now, she can finally meet her.

"Oh, right......"

When he was about to go out, Lu Chen suddenly stopped and turned around and said, "Uncle Cao, the poison of witchcraft is very serious. People who can inject this poison are definitely not kind. You must be careful about the people around you!"

"Well, I understand."

Cao Guan nodded.

He has always lived in seclusion, but now he is suddenly poisoned, which is obviously not simple.

The most important thing is that tomorrow is the Cao family's annual meeting.

As a clan leader, once he becomes critically ill, the impact will be huge.

At that time, the entire Cao family will inevitably fall into civil strife.

At this point in time, the pinch is too sensitive.

"Sister Shuang, who do you think was the person who poisoned me?" Cao Guan suddenly asked.

"Brother Guan, apart from the Venerable Black Witch, I can't think of anyone who is proficient in the art of witchcraft and has a grudge against our Cao family." Chen Shuang looked solemn.

Lord Black Witch is a thorn in the side of the Cao family.

Mysterious and powerful.

In order to eradicate the disaster, the Cao family invested countless manpower and material resources.

However, for many years, nothing worked.

Moreover, several key members of the Cao family die inexplicably every year.

There are shadows of the Black Witch Lord behind them.

It can be said that the Venerable Black Witch alone made the entire Cao family feel anxious and exhausted physically and mentally.

"Yeah...it can only be him."

Cao Guan sighed: "It's a pity that we are in the light and the enemy is in the dark, so we can only be beaten passively. This is why I insist on letting Concubine Xuan marry into the Shangguan family."

"I know."

Chen Shuang took a deep breath: "Only if Concubine Xuan marries Shangguan Hong, can we borrow the power of the Shangguan family to deal with the Black Witch Lord. Otherwise, if this continues, the entire family will be destroyed by him."

"It's a pity that Concubine Xuan became a victim of the family. I feel ashamed of her." Cao Guan looked remorseful.

As a father, why doesn't he want his daughter to be happy?

However, there are some things that you really have no control over.

"Concubine Xuan is a sensible child, and she will definitely understand your good intentions." Chen Shuang comforted her.

"I hope so."

Cao Guan sighed, then seemed to think of something, and suddenly the conversation changed: "What do you think of this young man Lu Chen?"

"He is a genius with both medical and military skills. Looking at the entire provincial capital, he can be regarded as the best among the younger generation. Unfortunately, he cannot be compared with Guan Hong." Chen Shuang gave a pertinent evaluation.

After such a long period of contact, she has indeed changed a lot towards Lu Chen.

However, the other party's background is too humble, and this is the gap between the two.

"If there hadn't been this marriage contract, it wouldn't be impossible for him to be the son-in-law of the Cao family. It can only be said that the two of them are destined to be together."

Cao Guan said with a complex expression: "In the future, if you help him more, our Cao family will make up for him."

"clear."

Chen Shuang nodded slightly.
