Lu Zhixia couldn't help but smile at her adorable appearance.
"Alright, alright, we're going out to see her, not to fight."
Zhou An'an: "When you see injustice, you should speak out! Scumbags deserve a beating!"
They flagged down a car at the intersection and went to the guesthouse where Brother Biao and Zhou Cheng were staying, only to find it empty.
None of them were in the room, and the waiter didn't know where they had gone.
So they could only leave a message for the waiters and ask them to pass it on.
I got into a taxi again, told the driver the address, and the car started moving again.
Zhou An'an: "What do you think they could be doing? There's not a single one of them here?"
Lu Zhixia said, "It's possible that Brother Biao took them out to inspect goods again. This time, delivering fruit was very inspiring for them."
"You're the one who got them to come out. If they don't include you in their business dealings in the future, then you should just ignore them."
Lu Zhixia said, "I know what I'm doing. Some things can't be forced."
They arrived at their destination quickly and got out of the car.
Zhou An'an felt that the surrounding area looked a bit desolate, unlike the houses in the city, which were mostly single-story houses.
Lu Zhixia said, "The weather is alright today, but it's quite a long way to go. Stay with me."
Zhou An'an: "Don't worry! My specialty is stalking. When I was a kid, my dad went to solve a case, and I followed him the whole way without him noticing. When we finally arrived at the location, he found out and gave me a good beating. Ever since then, he's been on guard against me!"
Lu Zhixia laughed after hearing her description. They say that daughters are like warm cotton-padded jackets for their parents, but hers is a black cotton-padded jacket!
After entering the narrow alley and making several turns, it took more than ten minutes to finally arrive at Tao Lihua's courtyard house.
The gate was still the same gate, but after entering the courtyard, I found that there were far fewer people; the children I saw last time were not there.
The courtyard felt lifeless.
She glanced at the woman washing clothes and saw that the woman simply carried the basin back into the house.
Zhou An'an: "How strange! Has something happened?"
Lu Zhixia said, "I'll go knock on the door and see what's going on."
When I got to the door, it wasn't locked, so maybe someone was home.
While other people's windows were slightly open, Tao Lihua's windows were all tightly closed, even sealed with tape, which was indeed a bit eerie.
She knocked on the door.
Listen carefully; there are humming sounds coming from inside the house.
"What's going on?" Zhou An'an asked.
Lu Zhixia was a little worried about Tao Lihua when the door opened and Tao Lihua appeared before her.
Her face was covered in scabs from the festering sores, and her complexion was as pale as paper.
Tao Lihua's eyes lit up the moment she saw Lu Zhixia.
What brings you here?
Lu Zhixia said, "I came here on business and stopped by to see you."
Tao Lihua quickly tidied her hair. "I didn't get any prior notice, so I didn't prepare anything."
Just then, a loud thud came from inside, clearly the sound of a heavy object falling to the ground.
Tao Lihua turned around and said coldly, "If you make any more moves, you won't live tonight!"
Lu Zhixia asked, "What's going on?"
Tao Lihua said, "I've taken him into custody, and now he's even more useless than me."
Upon hearing this, Lu Zhixia immediately understood that the voice belonged to Tao Lihua's man, Zhao Zeyu!
So she quickly pushed the man inside, then closed the door. She then walked into the room and was incredulous at the sight of the man.
Skin and bones, instantly resembling a skeleton!
"What is this?" Lu Zhixia asked, pointing with her finger.
“He’s good at poisoning, isn’t he? I poisoned him too!” Tao Lihua grabbed the quilt. “This quilt is full of poisons that I bought with gold bars. I made it into a quilt. He covers himself with this every day. How could he not be poisoned?”
Zhao Zeyu's eyes widened in disbelief. No wonder his refusal to eat or drink hadn't worked, and his health was deteriorating. It turned out it was all because of the blanket he was wearing.
He tried to move the blanket with his hands, but he couldn't lift it at all; he didn't even have the strength to pick up an egg.
So he looked on with pleading eyes to the two girls who had suddenly appeared, hoping they would help him and that he could survive.
“You’ve made this way too serious,” Lu Zhixia said.
After laughing wildly, Tao Lihua said in a frenzied manner, "It doesn't matter anymore. My life has already been ruined by him. Actually, living a few more years won't do me any good. Watching him slowly be tortured to death is the greatest happiness."
Lu Zhixia knew she was in a lot of pain, so she quickly took out some ointment from her bag.
"This is a medicated ointment that my grandfather and I made for you. Apply it to your face, and maybe the scars will gradually disappear. You don't need to risk your life for a man like that! It's really not worth it!"
