Liu Ye held the sound transmission stone, intending to tell Fairy Zhu Xin immediately as soon as she heard Tao Ran's cry for help, so that she would find a way to come and save her.

But time passed by little by little, and Tao Ran still did not call for help.

If it weren't for the uncontrollable sounds that could be heard from time to time in the room, Liu Ye would have suspected that she had already...

After an unknown amount of time, Liu Ye felt something in her heart because the sound stopped.

Did something happen to a person, or did that beast stop?

"You've been very obedient today."

Zhang Zhaohai lifted Tao Ran's chin with the whip in his hand, and was satisfied to see that she was barely breathing and her whole face was covered with sweat.

It is really interesting to see a beauty looking like this.

He had a great time today and was in a pretty good mood.

It takes strength to torture people, and Zhang Zhaohai was a little tired at this time.

Reaching out and putting away the blood-stained tools, Zhang Zhaohai straightened his clothes and became the serious Mr. Zhang again.

Tao Ran lay motionless on the ground. If it weren't for the slight rise and fall of her chest and her eyes full of indifference, one might have thought she was dead.

"Alright, I'll let you go today. Remember, this injury can't be treated again, otherwise next time... humph."

With a light snort, Zhang Zhaohai opened the door and walked out.

Liu Ye, who was guarding the door, quickly lowered his head and waited until the person walked away before looking into the house. He was frightened when he saw it.

So much blood...

There were bloodstains, many pieces of blood-stained clothing, torn hair, and nails that were indistinguishable from fingernails or toenails.

Liu Ye shuddered and cried out in a sobbing voice, "Sister Tao Ran!"

"It's okay..." Tao Ran moved her hands, as if she wanted to get up, but it was obvious that she couldn't move. "Feed me the medicine."

"yes."

Liu Ye first sent a message to Zhu Xin, then poured out the pill and fed it to Tao Ran while crying.

After taking the pill, Tao Ran seemed to come back to life and his eyes moved.

She sat up and said, "Liu Ye, help me apply the medicine on my body."

Liu Ye was stunned, "But Master Zhang is not..."

"Don't worry about it, just apply it."

Mr. Zhang... Tao Ran sneered.

He stayed in the room for an hour today, and the incense must have worked.

The earliest he can come is tomorrow night, but given his personality, it's unclear whether he can survive until tomorrow night.

And... she always felt that Manager Hua would have another trick up his sleeve.

Even the use of poisonous incense is so clever. In order to ensure that there is no risk of error, there should be a backup plan.

After Tao Ran recovered a little, she went to find Manager Hua.

"It's been done, very smoothly." She said respectfully.

She didn't know whether the other party wanted to use her, but no matter what, as long as he helped her kill Zhang Zhaohai, he deserved her respect.

I thought she would ask me some details about the incense after I finished speaking, but Hua Jiaqing just looked her up and down and asked, "Are you okay?"

Although Hua Jiaqing looked cold, her eyes showed genuine concern.

Tao Ran was stunned for a moment, then shook her head, feeling a little sour in her nose. "I'm fine. I've already taken the medicine."

"Well, tonight is the last time. Don't worry about your injuries. You will never see him again." Hua Jiaqing nodded and said.

Tao Ran's eyes lit up with a strong brilliance, "Really?"

"Seriously." Hua Jiaqing handed over a pill, "This is your antidote."

Tao Ran took it without hesitation, which surprised Hua Jiaqing. "Aren't you afraid that there's something wrong with this medicine? I'll use it to control you?"

"If that's true, then I'll accept it. I'd even die if you could help me get rid of Zhang Zhaohai."

Hua Jiaqing frowned upon hearing this, strongly disagreeing, "Why die when you can live? Besides, dying for a beast is too worthless. He doesn't deserve it."

Tao Ran looked at her in a daze, then suddenly smiled, "You're right, he's not worthy."

Because of this Manager Hua, Tao Ran suddenly became very curious about and had a good impression of the owner of the Ning Tower, whom she had only met once.

I wonder what kind of person she will be?

At this time, Ning Zhishui was wearing a cloak and following Zhang Zhaohai.

He was sitting in a beast cart, which was obviously heading towards Zhang's house. The speed was not fast, and Ning Zhishui could catch up easily if he quickened his pace.

After turning left and right, the car slowly stopped at the gate of Zhang's mansion.

Ning Zhishui hid in the corner of the street in the dark night, his body almost merged with the wall, and did not attract anyone's attention.

Seeing the servant open the Zhang family's gate, Zhang Zhaohai was about to step into the mansion when Ning Zhishui's body suddenly became transparent and disappeared at the wall, as if he had never existed.

"Master, the lady was just asking if you had returned. Maybe she has something to look for you for." The servant said to Zhang Zhaohai.

"I understand." Zhang Zhaohai responded casually.

He entered the mansion and suddenly felt some movement, and couldn't help but look back.

"Master, what's wrong?" The servant looked at him puzzled.

"Nothing."

When Zhang Zhaohai saw that there was no one else except the servant, he thought he was wrong and didn't pay any more attention to it.

He was a little tired today and wanted to rest early, but thinking that his wife would still be looking for him, he walked towards her yard and his steps quickened.

The servant closed the door and continued to guard quietly.

"What do you want from me?"

Zhang Zhaohai looked at his wife and asked calmly.

There was no love between the two of them. Zhang Zhaohai was always looking for women outside, and he had several mistresses at home. He didn't ask his wife to spend the night with him for a year or two.

His wife was also happy about this. She practiced every day and then managed the shop.

As for his troubles—what did they have to do with her?

Just be deaf and blind and turn a blind eye to everything.

"It's nothing, I just want to remind you, do you have the Baicibing? President Meng wants to buy some." she said.

"The Hundred-Ci Ice...is not with me. It should be in the warehouse. Just go get it." Zhang Zhaohai thought for a moment and said, "Bring it to the Alchemy Association tomorrow. I have to keep an eye on the spiritual vein these days. It's about to open, and I can't spare the time."

No time to deliver spiritual herbs, but time to find women?

Mrs. Zhang curled her lips and smiled sarcastically.

As soon as he came, she smelled the scent on him, which was clearly the fragrance from a woman.

But she had no intention of asking about it, as it was something they both knew.

"knew."

She said.

Zhang Zhaohai turned around and left without saying a word.

Madam Zhang stood up and said, "Let's go to the warehouse."

"Yes, ma'am." The maid saluted.

The two of them carried lanterns and walked towards the small attic with the most guards.
