Chapter 24: Using the Truth Potion to Get the Truth
Jiang Li didn't say anything, just looked at her, but his brows furrowed little by little.

"Are you alright?"

She has ignored me for so many years, why did she suddenly come to me today? Is she here to settle the score with her because of Jiang Yaoyao?
The afterglow of the setting sun fell on his slightly drooped brows, like a large puppy that had been wronged.

"Whoo~"

Jiang Shu looked at him for a while but saw no reaction, so he didn't want to pay any attention to him anymore. He squatted down, holding his stomach in pain.

She has more than enough points now, but she still doesn't want to waste them on this.

She suddenly thought of someone and took out her cell phone to send a message to Dr. Guan.

Jiang Shu: "Doctor Guan, do you have any painkillers suitable for me?"

Doctor Guan: "Miss Jiang, if you have unbearable abdominal pain, you can try taking an ibuprofen to see the effect, and..."

Looking at Dr. Guan's detailed medical instructions, Jiang Shu gratefully gave Dr. Guan a red envelope.

Jiang Shu: "Thank you, Doctor Guan."

Doctor Guan: "Doctors are kindhearted. That's what I should do. I don't want the red envelope. I'm not doing this for money. Little girl, make the last days of your life better for yourself and be happy."

Doctor Guan: "A patient is here. I'm busy now. If you have any questions, you can leave me a message."

Jiang Shu: "Okay."

Do you want to be happy?
But how can you be happy with a family like this?

I rubbed my stomach and suddenly felt better and the pain disappeared.

The abdominal pain seemed to come in waves, but she endured it and it was fine.

Fortunately, I didn't waste 100 points.

Jiang Shu stood up and prepared to go to the drugstore to buy medicine, but with a "bang", his cell phone was snatched away.

She turned her head in fright and found that Jiang Li had not left yet. He was the one who stole the phone.

"!!!"

And he was looking at her chat interface seriously.

hateful!

A peeping Tom who snatched a cell phone to look at other people's privacy. How come I didn't realize he was such a pervert?

Jiang Shu's spiritual energy was overwhelming. He quickly reached out and snatched the phone back. In front of Jiang Li's surprised gaze, he slapped him hard.

All new and old grudges were settled together.

With a "slap", a red slap mark suddenly appeared on the boy's face.

However, she regretted it after the fight.

Because Jiang Li cried.

He just stared at her blankly, tears welling up in his watery eyes, hiding emotions that she couldn't understand.

"You... who told you to snatch my phone and... you even peeked at my privacy. I... you're a grown man, and you still have the nerve to cry."

Her voice became weaker and weaker. She had never seen Fifth Brother cry so sadly. She was at a loss as to what to do when she heard him whisper, "Bean, are you going to die?"

When Jiang Shu heard this name, something suddenly clicked in his head. This was the nickname they gave each other when they were kids.

She was three years old that year.

"You are only one year older than me and you are shorter than me. I don't want to call you brother!"

"Oh, you look like a potato, so I'll call you a bean."

"No, that's ugly."

"Bean, play games with me."

"No, I want to play with the fourth brother. He is the best looking."

"Bean, draw with me."

"No, I want to watch my second brother play games."

"Bean, I'm so bored."

"Then I'll paint with you."

"Great~" She could draw because she learned it slowly while accompanying Jiang Li at that time.

He had been a loner since childhood, but he only played with her and chatted with her.

Everything changed after Jiang Yaoyao came home.

One day he suddenly couldn't speak anymore, as if he had become mute. No matter how she teased him, he no longer responded.

His parents took him to the hospital for a check-up, and they said it was a psychological disorder and that if he couldn't overcome it, he would never be able to speak.

She hadn't heard him speak for ten years, and the first thing he said was to ask her if she was going to die. Jiang Shu sneered, "Yeah, are you happy?"

Over the years, she watched Jiang Yaoyao bully her. Not only did he never do anything about it, but he even ignored her when she asked for help. Her heart had already been broken to pieces by him.

Among several brothers in the family, Jiang Li is the only one who is about the same age as himself. They watch the same type of cartoons and their relationship can be said to be the deepest.

He stammered, "I'm sorry."

It’s better not to tell Douzi about what happened ten years ago. I hope she can be happy in her last days.

He stretched out the side of his face that had not been hit, and said tremblingly: "If Douzi is still angry, you can continue!"

Jiang Shu: “…”

What's this? Did he find out that she was dying, so he came to her to try to reconcile the brother and sister?

She didn't want to know why he could speak suddenly, she just wanted to know one more thing, "What happened ten years ago?"

Jiang Li was silent for a moment, then whispered, "Douzi, I'll take you to buy medicine."

call……

Her stomach started to hurt again. Seeing Jiang Li's evasive gaze, she became more and more annoyed. She hated people who played dumb the most.

Fortunately, she still had a bottle of truth potion.

It’s a pity that it can’t be used on Jiang Yaoyao.

"Does it hurt again? I'll carry you."

Jiang Li squatted down and turned his back to Jiang Shu. She didn't refuse and just lay on his back. Then she opened the system backpack and used the truth potion on him.

She wanted to know the truth of ten years ago.

I also want to know why he has been autistic for so many years.

[The Mantra Potion was used successfully, and will take effect after one minute, with a duration of three minutes.]

"Is that the mute Jiang Li?"

"Who's that on your back?"

"Fuck! It looks like Jiang Shu, the school hunk's rumored girlfriend!"

"No way, she had a passionate date with the school hunk yesterday, and today she's with that dumb guy, how slutty!"

"You know what, he's so handsome. If he wasn't mute, there's no way Lu Xiujie would be the school hunk!"

"..."

When passing by the playground, he would always meet a few students who liked to gossip. Jiang Shu, who was sweating coldly due to stomach pain, had no time to care about too much. He could only force himself to calm down and quietly ask for the answer he wanted.

"Jiang Li, what happened ten years ago?"

"..."

The person under him fell silent and paused. Just when Jiang Shu thought the potion had lost its effect and cursed the damn system inwardly, Jiang Li spoke.

"I saw the plot and the future of our family."

"That day, when I first met Jiang Yaoyao, a plot appeared in my mind. It was as if I had really experienced a lifetime in the plot, and I suddenly had the mind of a 7-year-old from a -year-old."

"In the plot, you are a natural villain who will cause your whole family to die in the future, and Jiang Yaoyao is the savior of our family. She will save everyone."

"I didn't believe it. I thought it was all fake, but I had nightmares every night. I was afraid that I would tell the truth, so I kept hypnotizing myself into not being able to speak and being mute. I didn't expect it to work."

"Some things that happened later proved that everything in the plot was true. I couldn't face you again, facing someone who would destroy our family."

Jiang Shu not only had a stomachache, but also felt uncomfortable in his chest.

She didn't expect the truth to be so absurd. How was it different from when she learned the plot seven years ago and succumbed to the heroine step by step?

Who is actually writing this so-called plot?
