“You shall treat our family the same way we were treated in this house before, and you shall treat us the same way from now on. You shall not stop us tomorrow!” Qian Peilan finally spoke just as Bai Nuo was about to step out the door.
Bai Nuo stopped, turned around, slightly curled the corners of her lips, and looked at her coldly, "Fine, I agree!"
Qian Peilan didn't care about her attitude; all she cared about was that Bai Nuokeng agreed. However, she still had some doubts: "Can you make that decision?"
Bai Nuo nodded expressionlessly, "Yes!"
"What if Ming'er stops you?" Qian Peilan didn't really trust what Bai Nuo said. In the Hu family, the most powerful person now was Hu Mingmei, and all the power was in his hands. Qian Peilan didn't believe that Bai Nuo could do what he said he could.
“If he does something like this again, come to me. I’ll give you everything I own, and I’ll guarantee you a life of comfort and security!” Bai Nuo said calmly. “Any other conditions?”
“In addition, Haichuan needs to return to his original position!” Qian Peilan added.
Lu Ying and Xia Donglai's expressions changed. The story Qian Peilan told about wanting Huang Haichuan to return to his position was not about making Huang Haichuan become the second master of the Hu family again, but about making Huang Haichuan take charge of the Hu family's business.
Lu Ying and Xia Donglai were both ready to make their move. This old woman was really going too far. They refused to believe that she would still be so stubborn after they stabbed her.
"What? Is Ming'er's life less valuable than these things?" Huang Wenbai spoke up calmly at this moment. The couple forced Bai Nuo to make a decision, while Huang Haichuan watched the show from the sidelines. He wanted to see how Bai Nuo would choose.
“Alright, I agree!” Bai Nuo nodded. “However, I must make it clear beforehand that my husband has already taken over the Hu family, so you can only be the second-in-command!”
At this point, Qian Peilan was finally satisfied and slowly stated her final condition, "I can only give you half of the antidote; I can't give you the other half!"
As soon as Qian Peilan said this, Lu Ying and Xia Donglai couldn't hold back any longer. Xia Donglai put his knife back to Qian Peilan's neck, "Old woman, are you trying to play tricks? Do you believe I'll kill you with one blow?"
"If you kill me, you'll be buried with me tomorrow!" Qian Peilan chuckled, staring at Bai Nuo with droopy eyelids, completely disregarding him.
Bai Nuo felt that Qian Peilan was really like a poisonous snake.
In the hall, Bai Nuo could no longer hear any other sounds except Qian Peilan's shrill laughter. Before her eyes was Hu Mingmei's suffering when she had an attack of her illness. Qian Peilan did not urge her, but just watched her and smiled.
She simply enjoyed seeing Princess Yu Ru suffer, and she also enjoyed seeing her descendants suffer; it gave her immense pleasure.
Just as Xia Donglai's knife was about three inches deep into the flesh, Bai Nuo finally spoke, "Okay!"
Let's make it half.
Qian Peilan pressed her advantage, saying, "You release us first, then return all the power of the Hu family to my son, and then I'll give you the antidote!"
The moment Qian Peilan finished speaking, a surge of blood rushed to Bai Nuo's head. Bai Nuo's eyes turned bloodshot, and his mind buzzed. "I have already agreed to your conditions, and I will do them. Don't push your luck. Donglai, kill her!"
She was willing to endure this humiliation, willing to stand here and be made a fool of like a monkey, but Hu Mingmei was not. If word of these people got out, they would surely become a demon in Hu Mingmei's heart.
Rather than letting Hu Mingmei live with guilt, it's better to think of another way. She's an old woman who never leaves her house. I don't believe she can hide the antidote somewhere far away. Once they see blood, they'll be willing to talk.
After Bai Nuo finished speaking, she turned and left without looking at them again. All she wanted now was to go back to her husband and be with her child. She knew that Hu Mingmei needed her.
Seeing Bai Nuo leave, Xia Donglai couldn't help but sneer, "Brother Lu Ying, could you please help me tie up these two men? I'll show you my knife skills."
Xia Donglai was incredibly talkative today, which pleased Lu Ying greatly. She tried her best to fulfill Xia Donglai's requests. Huang Haichuan and Huang Wenbai wanted to leave immediately, but Lu Ying easily stopped them, leaving only their eyes moving.
"Why are you running away? The show has only just begun!" Lu Ying laughed. These people are eating and spending what Princess Yu Ru left behind, yet they still dare to treat Second Master like this. They are worse than animals. Even animals know not to curse after being given food.
These people are completely overturning his understanding of things from the past thirty years.
"Old woman, take a good look, my knife skills are very good!" Xia Donglai chuckled. Seeing that Lu Ying had subdued Huang Haichuan and Huang Wenbai, he took the knife away from Qian Peilan's neck.
That old hag! He's going to kill her today!
Fear flickered in Qian Peilan's eyes, but she still stubbornly insisted, "If you kill me, Hu Mingmei will really die!"
"Everyone has to die eventually!" Xia Donglai chuckled. "Isn't dying sooner or later the same? Second Master has enjoyed everything, and the young mistress loves him too. He's had his fill in this life. He wouldn't want you to humiliate him like this. Are you trying to make a fool of yourself?"
Besides, who says they definitely won't find a cure?
As they spoke, Xia Donglai had already slashed open Qian Peilan's clothes with a knife. The pieces of clothing fell to the ground, revealing Qian Peilan's chicken skin. Xia Donglai clicked his tongue in amazement, "Old woman, I'm not trying to criticize you, but you're not that old. How come you look like a loofah? Doesn't your husband mind?" As he spoke, he also glanced at Huang Wenbai.
