The family was furiously condemning the attack, but they didn't forget to urge Su An and Fu Huai to wash their hands and eat.
Even before they left, Li Guihua had already prepared a table full of dinner and was waiting for them. Under the dim candlelight, the family sat at the table chatting and laughing, creating a very warm atmosphere.
However, this pleasant atmosphere did not last long and was soon broken by loud knocking on the door.
It was accompanied by a near-hoarse, loud laugh.
"Hahahaha, Su An, you laugh right now... Come out here!"
Li Guihua was so frightened that she quickly hugged Su Yue tightly. The two little ones, Su Jiang and Su Yan, also hid behind the adults very warily, holding brooms in their hands.
"Who's that person outside? Could they be crazy?"
It's very strange to come knocking on the door and laughing so loudly late at night.
However, Su An burst out laughing, "I underestimated him. He didn't go home to hide, but came to my door instead."
Zhou Li also slammed down his chopsticks, yelled "Hey!" and ran out first. "I want to see if he still wants to come here to demand an explanation."
The whole family then followed them outside.
The person standing outside, knocking on the door while unable to stop laughing, was none other than Ni Dagui, whose laughter had been triggered by Zhou Li.
Seeing the family come out, his eyes instantly turned red.
The journey he took wasn't very long, but it wasn't short either; it took him more than half an hour. Along the way, he had to endure strange looks from all sides, and his uncontrollable laughter showed no signs of stopping.
In just that short time, he felt his throat was on fire and he could taste the blood, so he went to beg for mercy without hesitation.
"Mr. Su, hahaha... I was so rude just now, please forgive me, Mr. Su..."
Even when he was begging for mercy, he couldn't stop laughing, which turned what was originally a sincere statement into a provocation.
Su An raised an eyebrow, feigning anger as he glared at her, saying, "So, you, Boss Ni, came all this way just to laugh at me, didn't you? Although my shop's business was slightly affected by He Wangshi's malicious poisoning, it's still better than yours, isn't it? Who are you to laugh at me?"
Zhou Li, arms crossed and leaning against the doorframe, chimed in, "That's right, Mr. Ni, even though you and the young boss are competitors, isn't it a bit too much to come all the way here just to make a fool of us?"
Ni Dagui quickly waved his hands and shook his head. In his haste, he bent his knees and knelt down, raising his hands in a gesture of surrender.
Before he could even beg for mercy, Su An suddenly reacted with a loud "Ouch!"
"Mr. Ni, I never expected you to hate me so much. You're not young anymore, yet you kneel before me like this. Are you deliberately trying to shorten my lifespan?"
Zhou Li also cried out "Oh dear!" and quickly led the others to the side, shaking his head seriously, "This is too much, too much! How can they be so vicious!"
Ni Dagui's face turned green instantly.
These two are deliberately misinterpreting his meaning!
Fortunately, there weren't many people around, and not many onlookers, so he didn't care. He barely managed to suppress his laughter, and with great effort, he managed to squeeze out a few words: "I... my laughing spot, please..."
"What?"
Su An picked at his ear, feigning confusion, "Mr. Ni, what are you joking about? Do you just like to laugh like that?"
Without waiting for Ni Dagui's reply, he turned around and gestured for the others to go back inside, then slammed the door shut with a "bang." "Then you can laugh by yourself. None of us have this weird habit, so we won't keep you company!"
Ni Dagui panicked immediately and rushed forward to pry open the door, pleading, "No, it's not... please..."
Su An and the others looked at him with ambiguous smiles, knowing full well what he was asking for, but none of them took the initiative to point it out.
Only when Ni Dagui's face turned a deep purplish-red with anxiety, and he was panting heavily, did Su An lower her voice slightly and ask him, "Then, Mr. Ni, are you now willing to admit that you were the one who poisoned the customers in my shop?"
Ni Dagui immediately fell silent, clearly still unwilling to admit it. After all, he hadn't left any evidence before, so how could he possibly slip up at this moment?
Upon seeing this, Su An's expression instantly turned cold.
"Then there's nothing more to say, Mr. Ni, just enjoy yourself."
Then they completely closed the last crack in the door, shutting it out completely.
Only then was the family able to ask Ni Dagui what exactly was going on.
Upon learning that his laughter point had been activated, Su Ting immediately asked curiously, "If he doesn't understand, will he keep laughing like this until he dies?"
"How is that possible!"
While gnawing on a chicken wing, Zhou Li waved his hand and said, "At most, I'll laugh for twelve hours straight, which will just make my throat sore and I can't speak for a while."
Upon hearing this, the family breathed a sigh of relief, because if someone had really died, it would have been a serious matter.
After learning that it was just a temporary sore throat for Ni Dagui, they started chatting and laughing again, replaying Ni Dagui's earlier frustrated expression over and over.
However, in contrast to his family's happiness, He Cheng was living in dire straits and had learned some very bad news.
"You mean my mother has also been arrested and is going to be beheaded soon?!"
While sipping his drink, jailer Xu Datong laughed, enjoying the spectacle: "That's right, you two really are mother and son, managing to end up in jail together."
"But your mother won't be as lucky as you. She committed a serious crime, and if no one comes to save her, she'll be dragged to the underworld in a few days!"
He Cheng's face turned green instantly.
I don't know how his mother managed to do things, she actually got caught red-handed!
But now was not the time to dwell on such things. He Cheng, separated by an iron gate, quickly grasped Xu Datong's hand. "Brother, could you please make an exception and let me go see my mother?"
Xu Datong chuckled and readily nodded, "Of course, but... it still has to be the same as before."
He rubbed his fingers together, gesturing for He Cheng to take out the money.
But He Chengdu has been locked up here for many days, so where would he get any money?
He couldn't help but show a slightly embarrassed expression, "Brother, if you don't consider our past relationship..."
Unexpectedly, when Xu Datong saw that he couldn't produce any money, he immediately turned hostile and shoved him away, saying, "Go away, what are you talking to me about if you don't have any money? Do you think I'm some kind of charitable sage?"
"If you don't have money, then we'll follow the rules. You'll just stay inside and behave yourself!"
