Chen Xinghua felt a sharp pain in her scalp and before she could react, she was dragged to the center of the room.
She wanted to resist, but when she caught sight of the dead rat on the ground, she shuddered and her eyes widened instantly.
"What...what is this? You mean...Chunlan poisoned me? Impossible! This is impossible!"
Zhu Xiuqin had no time to pay attention to her explanation.
