Xia Wan narrowed her eyes slightly, carefully recalling Xia Jiandang's words and actions, especially his attitude towards the division of the family property.
He slowly began to speak, "Currently, although the family hasn't officially separated yet, the situation is already quite clear. Xia Jianjun took Grandma Xia to see the village doctor. However, in my opinion, Uncle San's determination to separate the family is quite firm! Even if the separation didn't succeed this time for some reason, it will happen sooner or later."
At this moment, Xia Jianguo, who was sitting to the side, noticed the canned food on the table. His doubts resurfaced. He pointed at it and looked at Xia Wan with a puzzled expression, asking, "Xiao Wan, why did you ask us to leave these canned foods here?"
He muttered to himself, "These things look really strange, and they're all poisonous. Why keep them?"
Is it possible that they intend to retaliate in kind?
Upon hearing Xia Jianguo's question, Xia Wan's lips curled up slightly, revealing a mysterious smile, and she replied softly, "I'm actually thinking of bringing Wu Sangui and that girl named A Yue here tonight."
I'm thinking of dealing with these people quickly so we can head to Beijing as soon as possible. After all, the longer we delay, the more unforeseen problems might arise.
In fact, Xia Wan had always had a strong premonition.
She always believed that as long as she could cleverly seize on A-Yue's weaknesses or vulnerabilities, it would be no difficult task to extract a lot of useful information from her.
According to her speculation, the person Ah Yue truly longed for was the mysterious master they had previously mentioned. In comparison, Wu Sangui was probably just a tool being used.
She secretly considered her options and decided to try to bring those two people over to check the situation first. If that failed, she would have to spend a thousand points to look up relevant information.
After all, the system has now been upgraded, so there's no need to worry too much about alerting the enemy.
Xia Jianguo did not stop him, but only instructed him with concern: "Okay, then be careful in everything you do, and be sure to pay attention to your own safety."
"Father, you can rest assured! I will do my best tonight to bring both of them back." As she spoke, she patted her chest confidently.
You know, she still has the tranquilizer gun she bought at great expense last time stored in her space! With such a powerful weapon, bringing those two people here without them noticing shouldn't be too difficult.
...
Night fell, and the moon and stars were few. At the same time as before, she headed up the mountain with practiced ease.
When she quietly arrived at the cave, she found that only A-Yue was inside. However, not long after, Wu Sangui, as usual, carried a lunchbox and climbed the mountain on time.
Compared to last time, A-Yue was noticeably more enthusiastic this time. Upon seeing Wu Sangui, her previously expressionless face instantly blossomed into a smile like spring flowers.
She quickly stood up and, like a swallow returning to its nest, rushed straight into Wu Sangui's arms: "Brother Gui, you've finally come! Did you bring me good news?"
Wu Sangui gently reached out and patted her back a few times, softly comforting her, "Were you worried? I do have good news to tell you. I kept my promise to Yue! I estimate that tomorrow we will hear the news that Xia Jianguo is dead."
Once things started, his initial guilt gradually disappeared.
Hearing this, A-Yue's previously somewhat forced smile instantly became brighter and more genuine. She excitedly said, "Really? That's wonderful! I always believed that Brother Gui would keep his promise to me, and it really did! You're so good to me!"
Then, the two started chatting idly, but it was all just trivial stuff, without revealing any useful information.
Meanwhile, Xia Wan, who was eavesdropping in the shadows, couldn't help but feel bitter in her heart, and she became more and more convinced that her previous guess was correct - Wu Sangui was just a pure tool, and there was no way to get any valuable information from him.
Unable to bear the meaningless conversation any longer, Xia Wan made a quick decision and pulled out a tranquilizer gun from her personal storage space.
She aimed at her target and pulled the trigger without hesitation. After two soft clicks, Wu Sangui and A Yue both collapsed to the ground unconscious.
After taking care of everything, Xia Wan effortlessly lifted the two unconscious men and carried them down the mountain as if they were chicks.
In fact, Xia Wan knew very well that Xia Jianguo and Xia Tao already knew she would bring the two people back, so they had no intention of resting at all and had been waiting for her to return.
As expected, when Xia Wan kicked open her own gate in a menacing manner, Xia Tao remained unusually calm upon seeing the scene before him.
After all, he was already used to his incredibly strong and brave younger sister. So, without batting an eye, he stepped forward and took the two people who were limp like dead dogs from Xia Wan's hands.
At the same time, Xia Jianguo stared intently at A Yue, who had been thrown to the ground. In an instant, he froze as if struck by lightning, his face filled with astonishment, muttering to himself, "It really is her..."
Who would have thought that someone would actually fake their death to escape people's sight and hide in that deep, secluded, little-known cave for years to come!
However, even when this woman was still living in the village, she rarely had much interaction or contact with the people in her brigade.
At this moment, Xia Tao turned to look at his father with a surprised expression and asked in confusion, "Dad, you actually know this person?"
As he spoke, he turned his gaze to A-Yue, who was not far away, and looked her up and down.
The woman's face seemed somewhat familiar, but no matter how hard he tried to remember, he couldn't recall exactly who she was.
In contrast, Xia Wan appeared much calmer. She had already made some guesses about Yue's identity. After hearing what her father had just said, she was instantly certain of Yue's true identity.
Sure enough, before Xia Wan could confirm it, Jia Jianguo spoke up again: "This is Wu Sangui's wife who died a few years ago. At the time, everyone thought she had really died tragically, but who knew that she escaped by faking her death. However, what is unexpected is that she was able to hide in those deep mountains and forests for so long."
