They weren't the only ones in a hurry; the renovation team that was helping them with the renovation also rushed over.

Seeing this disgusting scene covering the walls and floor, Zhou Ping, the foreman of the renovation team, was sweating profusely. "Boss Jiang, I'm so sorry. It was my oversight. I locked all the materials up last night, thinking nothing would happen, so I didn't send anyone to keep watch..."

During the renovation period, the shop was stocked with building materials such as bricks, cement, and river sand. To prevent the materials from being stolen, the renovation team should have sent someone to guard the shop at night.

But last night, a fellow villager from another renovation team invited them for drinks. He thought that since the shop door hadn't been dismantled yet, as long as it was locked, the building materials wouldn't be stolen, so he didn't leave anyone to guard the place at night. Who knew that something like this would happen?

Jiang Qiaoqiao calmed herself down; now was not the time to assign blame.

She asked Zhou Ping, "Master Zhou, can you handle this?"

Zhou Ping nodded repeatedly and said, "Yes, yes, I'll go prepare the water pipes right away. I guarantee that all this filth will be flushed down the drain without leaving a trace."

Jiang Qiaoqiao nodded, "Then I'll trouble you."

As she spoke, she took out twenty yuan and gave it to Zhou Ping, saying, "Master Zhou, this money is my cleaning fee for you. Please take it and distribute it to the other workers."

Looking at the money Jiang Qiaoqiao handed him, Zhou Ping felt even more guilty. "Ms. Jiang, this... how can I accept this?"

It was their failure to properly guard the construction site that led to this situation.

If you encounter a difficult client, it's acceptable to ask them for compensation.

Jiang Qiaoqiao not only didn't ask them for compensation, but also gave them cleaning fees.

"Master Zhou, here you go, please take it." Jiang Qiaoqiao forcefully handed twenty yuan to Zhou Ping.

Zhou Ping immediately apologized to her gratefully and repeatedly promised that they would work hard and take good care of the construction site in the future.

Jiang Qiaoqiao nodded without saying anything more.

Zhou Yang, standing nearby, grew anxious. "Sis, are we just going to clean it up ourselves and not call the police or find the culprit?"

Zhou Yang didn't understand, but Huo Beixiao already understood Jiang Qiaoqiao's thoughts.

He lowered his voice and said to Zhou Yang, "Zhou Yang, go and tell Master Zhou quietly that there's no need to keep watch tonight."

Zhou Yang's pupils dilated immediately.

He was about to ask in surprise when Jiang Qiaoqiao stopped him with a look. "Yangyang, do as your brother Beixiao says. As for why, I'll explain it to you tomorrow."

Zhou Yang could only suppress his shock and curiosity and obediently agreed, "Okay!"

Huo Beixiao looked at Jiang Qiaoqiao, "Don't worry, I'll have Guo Tao and his men keep watch tonight."

Jiang Qiaoqiao looked back at Huo Beixiao with her watery eyes and said seriously, "I want to do it myself tonight."

Huo Beixiao frowned slightly, worried that there might be some danger.

But seeing the resolute look in Jiang Qiaoqiao's eyes, he nodded and agreed, "Okay, but you have to let me go with you."

Night falls.

On a dark and windy night, Jiang Qiaoqiao stood guard in the alley opposite the shop, watching the situation of the shop without blinking.

Huo Beixiao was with her, and Guo Tao was with a lot of people beside them.

Night was falling, but there was still no sound from the shop.

Jiang Qiaoqiao was getting sleepy from waiting and couldn't help but yawn.

Huo Beixiao pulled her into his arms. "If you're sleepy, take a nap. I'll wake you if you make any noise later."

Guo Tao couldn't help but interject, "Sister-in-law, just sleep soundly. Generally speaking, people don't do bad things for two days straight. How stupid would someone have to be to do it for two days straight? Wouldn't that just be asking to get caught?"

As soon as Guo Tao finished speaking, Jiang Qiaoqiao suddenly saw a dark figure appear over the shop.

The dark figure was carrying a large bucket in one hand, and its body seemed unable to bear the weight, tilting to one side.

At the same time, Huo Beixiao's deep, cold voice rang out above her head, "You're here!"

In the next instant, Guo Tao had already led his men out.

Before Jiang Qiaoqiao could even react, she heard a "thump".

The bucket in the man's hand was kicked away.

At the same time, a scream of "Ah—" was heard.

Jiang Qiaoqiao felt that the voice was somewhat familiar.

Huo Beixiao led her to the man, and the flashlight shone on his face. Jiang Qiaoqiao looked at him and couldn't help but frown slightly.

She wasn't surprised at all that he was the one who did it.

She asked Jiang Yong'an directly, "Did Jiang Yiran send you?"

She knew Jiang Yiran too well. Today, she guessed that Jiang Yiran might be the mastermind behind this, but she didn't see Jiang Yiran at the scene. She knew that Jiang Yiran felt that one day of scorching heat was not enough to completely destroy her shop or make her look bad, so she didn't come.

I guessed she would definitely make another move tonight.

Jiang Yiran would never do something as disgusting as throwing excrement herself, so she would definitely have Jiang Yong'an do it.

Jiang Yong'an would not refuse any of Jiang Yiran's requests.

After all, in her previous life, she had fed and cared for Jiang Yong'an well and even hired two caregivers to look after him. In the end, Jiang Yong'an still dismembered her because of a single sentence from Jiang Yiran.

Moreover, she and Jiang Yong'an had never had any sibling relationship in this lifetime.

Jiang Yong'an, with his hands tied behind his back by Guo Tao's men, glared fiercely at Jiang Qiaoqiao, gritting his teeth and saying menacingly, "Jiang Qiaoqiao, you ingrate, you better let me go right now, or I'll make you regret it!"

Jiang Qiaoqiao frowned slightly and glanced at him.

Too lazy to waste words with him, she directly said to Huo Beixiao, "Beixiao, call the police."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Yong'an struggled violently for a few moments and tried to pounce on Jiang Qiaoqiao, but he was held down firmly and could not move an inch.

"Jiang Qiaoqiao, how dare you!" Jiang Yong'an roared angrily.

Jiang Qiaoqiao looked at him and asked, "What wouldn't I dare to do?"

Jiang Yong'an gritted his teeth, "I'm your own brother. If you send me to jail over something so trivial, people will just say you're an ingrate, heartless, and ungrateful!"

Jiang Qiaoqiao laughed, "Really? Then I'd like to see if I'll lose a couple of pieces of flesh if others say that about me."

Jiang Yong'an wanted to say something, but when he saw Jiang Qiaoqiao's smiling face, he suddenly froze.

He didn't know why, but even though Jiang Qiaoqiao's smile was so beautiful just now, he felt as if he had seen a demon crawling out of hell.

For a moment, he even felt that Jiang Qiaoqiao would take her life!

Jiang Qiaoqiao never intended to kill him. After all, she had lived a good life and didn't want to break the law for such a scumbag.

However, since Jiang Yong'an has been jumping around in front of her again and again, she would be letting him down if she didn't give him a gift in return, considering all the effort he put in when he dismembered her in her past life!
