Haiquan Apartment.
Zuo Cheng returned with Tang Xiao and was currently treating Cui Ziqi's injuries in the bedroom.
Xia Wan sat alone on the sofa in the living room, constantly rubbing two small plastic bags containing white powder in her hands.
This is wall plaster she brought from the Cui family manor.
One of them was a very small amount that got into a small house surrounded by wolves in the back mountains.
The other was a piece that was salvaged from the ruins of the small bungalow in the Cui family manor.
Xia Wan activated the system.
'System, why did you specifically introduce Yu Jia to me when she came out?'
Yu Jia is the second male lead in the book, and even if the plot is followed, he will be with Xia Zhizhi and Zheng Minghuai.
She was pulling Cui Ziqi away from the main storyline, and logically speaking, Yu Jia had nothing to do with them.
Given the system's nature, he wouldn't waste his breath mentioning unimportant people to her.
Could it be that Yu Jia has some other important identity?
[Yu Jia is driving towards the Cui family's house. In the original story, Yu Jia has no connection with the Cui family, which is somewhat different from the original story. Besides, didn't you notice, host?]
'What did you find?'
When you met at the intersection, Yu Jia saw you, and his gaze was cold and indifferent, as if he had known you for a long time.
Xia Wan felt a chill run down her spine.
"Are you sure? The book says I don't know him? Could it be that he's already met Xia Zhizhi after he came back, and he knows about me from her?"
[I'm not sure, but since Yu Jia's actions differ from the original work, it's a necessary procedure for me to remind you to pay attention.]
Xia Wan felt that she would have no further contact with Yu Jia in the future, so she didn't take the matter too seriously.
Her gaze fell on the two plastic bags in her hands.
"System, is there a way to help me analyze the ingredients in these two bags?"
No problem, but it will take some time, about two days.
'OK.'
As soon as Xia Wan finished speaking, the two plastic bags in her hand disappeared into thin air.
Her pale, slender fingertips caressed her.
She kept her head down, her face hidden in a gloomy gray, making it impossible to see her expression.
Meanwhile, inside the bedroom...
Zuo Cheng took the small stone from Cui Ziqi's hand.
They were broken bricks, still covered with fine white wall plaster.
"Test the composition of the wall plaster as quickly as possible."
"knew."
Zuo Cheng carefully put the small stones away in a plastic bag.
Tang Xiao examines Cui Ziqi's wound.
Although his wounds had been given basic treatment, some of the scratches were so deep that they required stitches.
"Brother Qi, how come you're already facing wolves as soon as you come back? And you've gotten yourself into this state. Wouldn't Cui Jiyang be thrilled to see this?"
Cui Ziqi remained silent.
During this period, he was emotionally unstable and had no time to care whether Cui Jiyang was in pain or not.
Without waiting for Cui Ziqi's reply, Tang Xiao administered anesthesia and began stitching up the deeper wounds.
Zuo Cheng looked at Cui Ziqi and took the initiative to report.
"The villagers of Anshou Village have been appeased, and the victims' families have joined forces to sue the Cui Group. We have provided them with legal aid."
"The boxing gym was shut down, and Bai Miao came to Lincheng. Our people found out that Bai Miao met with his sister-in-law last night."
Cui Ziqi finally made a move.
He raised his eyes and gave Zuo Cheng a cold look.
Zuo Cheng continued, "We don't know the specifics of what they talked about. Bai Miao and his sister-in-law met for about ten minutes. After they parted, his sister-in-law found a hotel nearby to stay in."
Cui Ziqi's eyes were like deep pools, calm and still, yet turbulent undercurrents raged beneath, making one feel uneasy.
He gave a soft "hmm" and asked:
"How's the matter I asked you to handle going?"
"The item has been found. Recently, a genius from Lincheng named Yu Jia has been researching this item for many years."
"Send me the information, and I'll buy the items, no matter how much it costs."
Zuo Cheng nodded, indicating that he understood.
After treating the wounds, Zuo Cheng and Tang Xiao left first.
Before leaving, Tang Xiao gave Xia Wan a medical check-up.
After confirming that everything was alright, Tang Xiao suddenly leaned close to Xia Wan and whispered:
"Sister-in-law, Brother Qi is stubborn. I can only tell you this: his wounds are quite serious. I just stitched him up. I'm worried he might get a fever tonight. If possible, you should stay by his side tonight."
As he spoke, Tang Xiao stuffed the medicine he had prepared earlier into Xia Wan's hand.
"Take this medicine when you have a fever, or wipe your body with alcohol. Thank you for your hard work, sister-in-law."
Xia Wan nodded, "Don't worry, leave it to me."
Tang Xiao and Zuo Cheng left.
Before leaving, Xia Wan felt that Zuo Cheng's gaze towards her carried a hint of pity.
She didn't care.
He entered Cui Ziqi's room decisively.
Are you sleeping here tonight?
She asked Cui Ziqi.
Cui Ziqi frowned at her, as if wondering why she would ask such a question. If he didn't sleep here, where would he sleep?
Xia Wan understood what Cui Ziqi meant.
She nodded and placed the medicine on the bedside table.
"Okay, I'll sleep here tonight too."
To Xia Wan's surprise, Cui Ziqi tacitly approved of her actions and even thoughtfully placed the stacked pillows aside.
"You sleep here."
A hint of surprise flashed across Xia Wan's eyes.
I thought I'd have to stall this little pervert for a while, but he agreed so readily!
She clicked her tongue in amazement.
"You were avoiding me like the Japanese devils a couple of days ago, but you're not avoiding me anymore?"
Cui Ziqi lost her patience. "You can leave now."
Xia Wan kicked Cui Ziqi in the shin.
"You heartless rotten radish!"
Cui Ziqi: ...
If you're allowed to sleep, you get scolded; if you're not allowed to sleep, you get scolded too.
