Nan Xiao pulled up the surveillance footage and watched for a few minutes before looking coldly at the butler, "Where is Liu Meiying?"
The butler replied respectfully, "She has returned to her room."
"Call her over," Nan Xiao said, then took out his phone and dialed, "Old Han, bring some people over. My mother was pushed down the stairs by a servant."
Hearing him speak, everyone looked up towards the second floor.
The butler quickly brought Liu Meiying over, "Young Master, when I went to call her, she was packing her bags."
Liu Meiying stole a glance at Nan Xiao, only to be intimidated back by his gaze, "Young Master, you were looking for me?"
Nan Xiao asked coldly, "Why did you push my mother down the stairs?"
Liu Meiying was stunned by the question, "Ah? I didn't push the old madam down the stairs!"
Nan Xiao pressed, "You didn't push my mother downstairs, so why were you packing your bags?"
"I wasn't packing my bags, I wanted to pack some clothes to go to the hospital to take care of the old madam."
Nan Xiao frowned and remained silent.
Liu Meiying nervously clutched her clothes, "Young Master, do you need anything else? If not, I'll go to the hospital first."
Nan Xiao frowned impatiently and roared outside, "Which of the An family's hidden guards are still here, come in!"
As soon as Nan Xiao finished speaking, someone rushed in, panting.
Nan Xiao glanced at him coldly, "Who was present when my mother was pushed down?"
The hidden guard wiped the sweat from his forehead, "Forty minutes ago, two people in black broke into the courtyard. Liu Meiying told us that the young lady ordered us to go after the two men, and we only returned now. No one was accompanying the young lady."
Nan Xiao narrowed his eyes, "Liu Meiying, you have accomplices?"
Liu Meiying quickly said, "Young Master, I really don't! If you don't believe me, you can ask the old madam when she wakes up. She said it herself, that we must all go out to capture those two people."
"My mother isn't senile; she knew someone had infiltrated the house yet sent everyone out."
"The old madam is indeed not senile." As he spoke, a black figure leaped down from the second floor, "Young Master, I am An Jiabu, the old madam's personal bodyguard. I have been guarding by her side."
Nan Xiao raised his eyelids and looked at him, "Why are you only coming out now?"
"Someone lit an incense in the old madam's bedroom. Both she and I were affected. I only just woke up."
Nan Xiao raised an eyebrow, "In this house, if I recall correctly, only Liu Meiying besides you can enter and exit my mother's bedroom freely."
An Jiabu nodded heavily, "Yes."
Nan Xiao tapped his knee with his slender fingers, then closed his eyes in silence. It wasn't until the sound of sirens outside that he suddenly opened his eyes.
Captain Xiao quickly entered with his team.
Nan Xiao handed him a USB drive, "This is the surveillance footage of Liu Meiying pushing my mother down the stairs. An Jiabu said that he and my mother were drugged. Have your people search Liu Meiying's room and see if there's any other evidence."
Captain Xiao nodded, gestured to two subordinates, and was led upstairs by the butler.
Captain Xiao looked at Liu Meiying, who was already crying inconsolably, "Liu Meiying, the old madam treated you well. Why did you push her downstairs?"
Liu Meiying collapsed to the ground with a thud, "I didn't push her."
"Captain Xiao, a suspicious item has been found in a bag."
Liu Meiyun looked over abruptly, "This isn't mine!"
"Whether it's yours or not, we'll know after checking your fingerprints," Captain Xiao said, then looked at the two female police officers standing beside him, "Take her away!"
The female officers pulled the wailing Liu Meiyun and quickly walked out.
Captain Xiao turned to Nan Xiao, "I'll take her back for questioning. You should hurry to the hospital too. We'll keep each other updated."
Nan Xiao nodded, "Let's go together. Butler, An Jiabu, Liu Ma, come with me to the hospital."
The three people who were named followed Nan Xiao and Captain Xiao out of Shengshi Jiangnan.
When Nan Xiao arrived at the hospital, An Lanshu had already been transferred from the emergency room to a regular ward.
After entering the ward, Nan Xiao saw that his mother was still asleep and frowned, "Why isn't she awake yet?"
Huo Ding coughed lightly, "The sedative the auntie took isn't very toxic. There's no need to use medicine to wake her up. Let her sleep, she'll wake up by tomorrow morning."
Nan Xiao asked in a deep voice, "An Jiabu and my mother were given the same sedative, so why did he wake up so quickly?"
Huo Ding explained unhurriedly, "Their positions were different, and the components they inhaled were also different. Also, An Jiabu is someone who has undergone special training, so he would definitely wake up faster than the auntie."
Nan Xiao raised an eyebrow slightly, then turned to the butler and said, "I'm going to the police station first. I'll come back tomorrow morning."
"Yes, Young Master."
Nan Xiao gave Huo Ding a look, and the two walked out side by side.
They arrived at an office, and Nan Xiao motioned for Huo Ding to close the door.
Huo Ding understood and glanced outside before closing the door.
"Besides the poisoning, is the old lady alright?"
Huo Ding curved his lips sinisterly, "What kind of condition do you want her to have? I'll arrange it!"
Nan Xiao glared at him impatiently, "Can you speak human?"
"I heard the old lady is going to..."
Nan Xiao heard a sound and pressed the elevator button.
An Jiabu glanced at him uncomfortably and turned to leave.
Nan Xiao said coldly, "Come in, I have something to say to you."
An Jiabu hesitated for a moment, but then obediently entered the elevator.
"You haven't betrayed your master, and I haven't betrayed my mother. We're both doing this for her own good. You've been with my mother the longest and have witnessed her suffering. If she continues to be entangled with my father, I fear her later years will be even more bitter."
An Jiabu clenched his fists, "If it weren't for this reason, I wouldn't have helped you."
Nan Xiao glanced at his bulging veins, "Since you've made up your mind, don't dwell on it, lest my mother notices."
