After the New Year, the festive atmosphere gradually faded and everything returned to normal. After attending various activities and drinking for several days, Qiao Yuan finally had some free time.

We can't continue to degenerate like this!

Enjoyment is enjoyment, the next step is to focus on cultivation. Qiao Yuan began to repeat the boring cultivation process.

After all the skills reached the sixth level, it seemed as if they stopped advancing. After a few days, Qiao Yuan did not feel any progress. It seemed that the fastest way to break through was through energy value.

On this day, Qiao Yuan, who was practicing, received several messages from Bai Jinfa.

I clicked on it and saw two pieces of news.

"A serious accident has occurred in xx City. Reports indicate that two prominent local tycoons tragically died in their homes on New Year's Eve, leaving no one in their family unharmed. The investigation is ongoing... Local reporters will continue to report on this for you..."

Nothing can be seen from the news alone. Through Bai Jin's internal connections, Qiao Yuan obtained photos of the scene.

hiss~

Qiao Yuan took a breath of cold air.

The death was so cruel, naked, bloody, and cut into pieces.

All family members, including their pet dogs, knelt on the ground facing the wall in a gesture of repentance.

And there was a line of blood written on the wall.

[It’s not that I won’t take revenge, it’s just that the time has not come yet]

…

The second piece of news is about the first half of the lives of these two wealthy people. They were both from other places. They were penniless before, but then disappeared for a few years and had a large amount of money. They then used that money to develop to their current status.

"Did she do it?" Qiao Yuan asked.

"Yes." Bai Jin said.

As expected... Don't offend a woman if you want to offend anyone.

Bai Jin then sent a few more messages to confirm the matter. These two wealthy men were the ones who participated in the robbery twenty years ago.

Now that the woman had her revenge, everything was normal, but Qiao Yuan vaguely felt that something was wrong.

These two wealthy men are just ordinary people. How could they have the ability to trap that woman?

The story behind this is probably not as simple as imagined.

…

xx City, New Year’s Eve, night.

Inside an apartment.

"Honey, are you still busy? What have you been doing lately? Why can't I get through on the phone?"

"Working." The man's steady voice came.

"Work, work, all you have in mind is work. Didn't you agree to come back for the New Year?"

"Your leader is really something. He doesn't even give us a holiday during the New Year... How can there be such a job... What if we encounter any danger..." The woman's complaining voice was heard again.

The man gave a dry laugh and then began to explain.

"Old Liu's wife is about to give birth, so I took the initiative to let him stay. Don't worry, the job is easy. I'm on a business trip at public expense, and all I have to do is eat and drink all day... Look, aren't these dumplings?" The man said with a smile, then moved the camera to the steaming dumplings on the table.

"Humph, Lao Liu has a wife, don't you have one too..."

Dong Dong Dong~

Just then, there was a knock on the door, interrupting the conversation between the man and his wife.

"Wife, wait for me."

The man put down his phone, walked to the door and opened it, and saw the person coming clearly through the light in the corridor.

She is a woman wearing a cheongsam, with an outstanding temperament, elegant and unworldly, and she has a feeling of being untainted by the mud.

"Hello, big brother. I live next door to you. It's New Year's Day and the shops outside are closed. Can I borrow some vinegar?"

"You know, eating dumplings without dipping them in vinegar is soulless."

The woman's voice, as gentle as spring breeze, came.

"It's okay, wait for me." The man agreed politely, then picked up the vinegar on the table and handed it to the woman.

"Thank you, brother. Are you alone in the room?" the woman said with a smile.

"You're welcome." The man smiled and closed the door.

…

"Honey, who is it?" The wife's voice came from the phone.

"A neighbor who's just borrowing some vinegar, it's okay... By the way, where's our son? I haven't seen him for several months, and I miss him a lot." The man seemed to be deliberately avoiding the topic.

The camera on the opposite side began to shake slightly. The wife came to the living room with her mobile phone, made a bottle of milk powder, and then went into the bedroom. She picked up the baby in the cradle while talking about what had happened recently.

"If you don't come back, your child will be going to elementary school!"

Looking at his child in the camera, the man scratched his head.

"It's good to go to elementary school. It proves you can talk now. Baby, call daddy..."

"Dad..." A unclear baby voice came from the phone.

This made the man smile like a father.

…

Dong Dong Dong~

The knock on the door sounded again.

The man's smile froze instantly. He put down his phone and went to the door again. He looked through the peephole and saw that it was still the neighbor.

After hesitating for a moment, the man opened the door.

"Excuse me, do you have anything else to do for me?" The man was still very polite.

"Excuse me, big brother. I only have vinegar but no dumplings at home. Can you lend me some dumplings?"

"You know, drinking vinegar without dipping dumplings is soulless." The woman said with a smile.

"You wait." The man agreed after hesitating for a moment, got up and went to the living room, picked up the dumplings that had not been eaten yet, walked to the door and handed them to the woman.

Then, without waiting for the woman to say anything, he immediately closed the door.

After confirming through the peephole that the woman had left, the man frowned, as if thinking about something. Then he quickly went to the living room, picked up his phone, hung up the call with his wife, and sat alone quietly.

After a long time, the man made up his mind, picked up his mobile phone, switched the system, and entered another desktop.
