My Scheming Little Devil-Chapter 2073 - 2072: Sabotaged

That sense of intimacy and affection felt so natural, as natural as if they were an old married couple who had experienced everything, perhaps with good reason, and now he wanted to find out that reason.

He recalled Jun Yiyi explaining her so-called background that day, about her absurd experiences, claiming she came from another world.

Anyone else hearing this would surely find it speechless and absurd.

However, upon hearing it, he didn’t feel very shocked. It wasn’t that he thought it was outlandish and unbelievable. On the contrary, deep down, his instinct somewhat believed her. What a strange intuition.

Moreover, from his understanding of her, the more seriously she spoke with no flaws, the less he could trust her. She was such a cunning and unreasonable girl, yet such an incredible statement was likely to be her true feelings.

Especially since she cried, cried so sadly, saying she had nothing in this world, saying she had no way to return to the side of the person she loved.

Those words pierced his heart like needles, also bringing him peculiar pain and resonance.

Why?

Was his past really unrelated to her?

He didn’t believe it.

After pondering it, he called in a subordinate, his expression exceptionally serious and solemn.

"I want you to investigate the process of my adoption by my foster parents. Do it secretly; don’t let anyone find out."

The subordinate looked at him in surprise, hesitating, "Wouldn’t it be clearer to ask the Councilman and Madam directly, Major General?"

"No, just follow my orders." He never cared who he was before, how he was adopted. His foster mother only vaguely mentioned it.

Now he wanted to know more clearly. Every missed detail, he wanted to know who he was, what his identity was, and where he came from.

As for why he wouldn’t directly ask his foster parents, he instinctively felt they would hide something from him.

The subordinate nodded and left.

He closed his eyes and rested for a while. On this rare holiday, he planned to go out for a stroll. But the phone in the office rang, it was the secretary’s line, saying a call came from Stardust School, asking if he wanted to take it.

Ling Kong had her transfer the call.

He had placed someone in the school to monitor Jun Yiyi, and every now and then, this person would report on the situation.

But this time, the caller had unexpected news for him.

"Jun Yiyi didn’t attend the exam."

...

It was already 10:15, well past the time to enter the exam.

And Jun Yiyi was still lying in the hospital bed.

"What’s going on?" Ling Kong hurriedly stormed in and saw Jun Yiyi still lying on the bed, asleep, immediately demanding sternly from the doctors around her.

The attending doctor spoke solemnly, "She was given a substantial dose of sedative; she won’t wake up for at least half a day."

Ling Kong’s face turned cold: "How can you let something like this happen in the hospital? What about the surveillance footage? Did you find out who did it?"

The doctor shook his head: "No, no suspicious people entered the room. And today, to ensure she was in good spirits for the exam, we didn’t prescribe her any sleepy medication; the culprit definitely didn’t act through the hospital."

Madam Aisha’s face went pale.

"Maybe it’s my fault... She usually eats the hospital’s breakfast, but today, wanting her to have breakfast she likes, I went out to buy it for her. And after eating, she said she felt a bit sleepy and wanted to sleep."

Undoubtedly, the one who acted must have targeted Madam Aisha, tampering with the breakfast.
