Male Lead's Canon Fodder Wife novel Chapter 568

Dong Li knew this because he saw Chen Jianmin soaking an oleander plant in a scoop of water by the river. Then he used a branch to drop a drop of that water into his food.

At first, he was confused as to why anyone would play with the flower, let alone ruin his food. Although the flower looks beautiful, it is highly poisonous.

It is so toxic that just touching it with bare hands can cause a severe rash. If consumed, it may cause vomiting, abdominal pain, delirium, drowsiness, dizziness, headache, and in severe cases, death.

Therefore at that moment, he thinks Chen Jianmin is stupid as he ruined his precious food. He didn’t understand everything until he heard from the villagers that Gou Dan vomited until he fainted after eating.

It turned out that he already knew that his food would be taken away. So, instead of letting Gou Dan enjoy the food, he chose to endure the hunger and use his food to poison Gou Dan.

At that time, he and Dong Huang were just orphans without family, and he didn’t think he would have anything to do with Chen Jianmin. So, he didn’t think much about his actions. He had his hands full trying to survive and protect his sister. Where does he have time to care about other people’s affairs?

But today, he was surprised when he heard his sister ask about him. He chewed the food in his mouth and swallowed it. He nodded and said nonchalantly, "I heard about him from the teacher. Xiao Huang, why did you suddenly ask about him?"

Not knowing that her brother was worried about her contact with Chen Jianmin, Dong Huang explained, "Yesterday when Xiao Huang, Brother Lin, and Xiao Yi were having snacks on the riverbank, he came over and said he wanted to be friends with us."

After she finished speaking, the eyes of Dong Li and Li Chenmo flashed for a moment, and then returned to normal.

Not noticing his adoptive father’s reaction, Dong Li inquired, "Then what did you tell him? Do you want to be his friend?"

Dong Huang thought for a while, shook her head and said, "No. Xiao Huang didn’t know him at all, and his smile looked weird. Xiao Huang has Brother Lin and my cousin to play together, that’s enough."

Dong Li breathed a sigh of relief silently after hearing her words. His sister has had a keen intuition about people with ill intentions since she was a child. So, unless someone really treats her with sincerity, it’s not easy to get close to her.

Dong Li patted her head and repeated what their foster mother used to say, "En, Xiao Huang is doing well. Don’t approach strangers and don’t take their things. Even if he offers you food or drink, you cannot accept it. Do you understand? "

Dong Huang nodded and said, "En, Xiao Huang understands. Xiao Huang only likes the food made by my foster mother."
