Chapter 86 Paying the Price of Selling One's Body
After Lin Zhicheng's visit, Lu's mother was visibly in a much better mood.
She asked cheerfully, "Son, let's have something nice to eat tonight! What would you like to eat? Mom will make it!"
Lu Yizhou raised an eyebrow and gave her a deep, thoughtful look.
Lu's mother's expression froze.
Feeling uneasy, she forced a smile and said, "Um... I'll figure out how to do it myself!"
Once he was alone in the room, Lu Yizhou's brows furrowed slightly.
Feeling somewhat annoyed, he casually tossed the blueprints onto the table, then leaned back, lowered his gaze, and his expression was complex and difficult to decipher...
...
After finishing work, Huang Ying returned home.
"Mother, you're back!" Shi Yu walked over to her with a smile.
But when they got closer, Shi Yu suddenly smelled an unpleasant odor emanating from Huang Ying.
It has a slightly astringent taste.
It feels like a certain kind of drug.
"Mom, what do you smell like?"
"Smell?" Huang Ying was taken aback for a moment, then she lowered her head and took a deep sniff of herself, following Shi Yu's words.
"Just before we were about to finish work, we discovered that the girl who went to the island this morning had left behind a large bag of things. With this little weather, it might rain tonight, so we'll have to move the things to the shed over there."
"My mother helped out."
"That's probably when I got infected!"
"Really?" Upon hearing this, Shi Yu's eyes flickered.
Because it involved a girl in a red dress, she immediately took it to heart.
On the surface, Shi Yu showed no sign of it. "Mom, dinner is ready. Let's eat!"
"good."
After dinner, Shi Yu greeted Huang Ying and said she wanted to go for a walk to help digest her food.
Then Shi Yu left home and headed straight for the dock.
...
At this time, there was no one left at the dock.
Shi Yu, familiar with the route, arrived at the shed on the west side that was specifically for storing things.
The girl in the red dress had her belongings wrapped in a bright red cloth, which looked out of place, so Shi Yu could tell her apart at a glance.
He stepped forward, untied the bundle, revealing the large yellow paper inside.
Then, the yellow paper was torn apart.
Shi Yu stared intently, "This is..."
Rat poison?!
The tiny orange granules were piled up tightly together, and judging from their weight, they must weigh at least 10 pounds.
With a narrowed gaze, Shi Yu's expression darkened slightly.
This rat poison is highly toxic!
With such a large quantity, what does she intend to do with it on the island?
Poisonous rats?
hehe!
Even in the future, if you gathered all the rats from several provinces together, you probably still wouldn't be able to digest such a large quantity.
Lin Zhicheng, the well, the year, mother's blood...
As these key terms quickly flashed through his mind, Shi Yu's heart stirred.
She suddenly had a guess.
Before leaving, Shi Yu quietly restored the bundle containing rat poison to its original state.
Not long after she left, a furtive figure crept over.
It was the girl in the red dress.
Unlike her refined appearance when she arrived on the island during the day, her face now appeared haggard with several bloody marks.
Even with the medication applied, it couldn't hide the slightly everted skin revealing a scarlet blood color.
Coupled with her chilling gaze, she looked like a vengeful ghost that had crawled up from hell.
The girl in the red dress breathed a sigh of relief after finding her bundle inside the shed.
But then she remembered what her friend had said when she applied the medicine earlier that day: the wound was a bit deep and might leave a scar after it heals, so she should be prepared.
The girl in the red dress immediately teared up.
Heartbroken.
A gleaming killing intent flashed between his brows.
If it weren't for that bitch Shi Yu, how could she have gotten her face scratched and disfigured by a stray cat?
I will never let her go.
Then, the girl in the red dress composed herself and turned to leave.
He rushed to the place he had agreed upon with Shi Nian without stopping.
Small grove.
And Shi Nian, who had been waiting for this moment of unrequited love, had been waiting for a long time.
Hearing footsteps finally behind him, he turned around excitedly, "You've come..."
Upon seeing the other person's face, Shi Nian's words came to an abrupt halt.
His pupils dilated sharply; he was truly shocked.
"Your face..." Shi Nian moved his lips with difficulty, and after a long while, he finally found his voice.
Before she could even speak, tears streamed down the girl's face.
She choked back tears and threw herself into Shi Nian's arms, "It's Shi Yugan's..."
“When we were talking here earlier, she overheard us. She’s jealous of you, can’t stand to see you doing well, and doesn’t want me to marry you. So, she deliberately ruined my face.”
Upon hearing this, Shi Nian's body stiffened.
He gritted his teeth, furious.
That damned slut deserves to die a horrible death.
Seeing that she had successfully stirred up Shi Nian's anger, the girl in the red dress raised her head and looked at him pitifully, "Brother Shi Nian, you will definitely help me get revenge, right?"
What do you want to do?
"I don't want Auntie's blood anymore, but we can do this through this..." The girl in the red dress lowered her voice and revealed her true intentions.
"What?" Shi Nian stared wide-eyed in disbelief.
At that moment, my pupils dilated as if an 8-magnitude earthquake was about to occur.
"This...I..."
Then, his slightly flickering eyes directly revealed his unease and hesitation.
He certainly hated Shi Yu; he wished she could be torn to pieces.
But……
However, Shi Nian did not have the courage to go against the whole village. What if a few people were killed?
"What, you won't help me? Did you lie before when you said you liked me and would do anything for me, even if it meant going through fire and water?"
She grabbed his collar resentfully, her expression twisted with malice.
Shi Nian was in a state of turmoil. After gently pushing the other person away, he scratched his head irritably. "Of course I like you, but this is no small matter."
Staring at his retreating figure, the girl in the red dress's face darkened.
If the disfigurement hadn't happened, she believed that if she had just coaxed that fool Shi Nian a few times, he would have charged into battle for her without hesitation.
But now he hesitated.
Damn it!
It seems we need to take drastic measures.
With a determined heart, the girl in the red dress decided to go all out.
She suddenly stepped forward and hugged Shinian from behind, saying, "Brother Shinian, I really like you and want to be with you."
"Isn't my deep love for you enough to make you help me vent my anger?"
The softness suddenly crashed into him, and Shi Nian's body stiffened.
His face turned bright red, and he was at a loss for what to do.
But then he was startled to realize that the girl in the red dress was moving her hand restlessly on his chest.
She slipped her hand inside his shirt, teasingly sliding down...
What followed was a natural progression.
How could Shi Nian resist such intense passion? He immediately embraced her and rolled around in a ball.
The battle is fierce!
Just then, someone happened to pass by.
