Chapter 276 An Accidental Success
Duanrao thought about it and finally nodded in agreement.
After talking on the phone with his third brother that day, she temporarily dispelled the terrible speculation that her third brother was Dr. Du.
But when she thought about the unlucky situation in her family where this jinx would curse her as an unlucky ghost whenever he came home, Du Anrao still felt a little uneasy.
She was always worried that her third brother, who had not yet been harmed by the plot master, was secretly planning something big for her. She took this opportunity to visit his laboratory. Who knows, there might really be a pleasant surprise.
Just as Du Anrao expected, just as she finished the wedding of the two elderly people, Mr. Liu and Ms. Qi came to her in a hurry.
Du Anrao had not yet had the chance to move into the new house bought by his parents, so the two of them followed the Qiu mother and son to Jingyu Street.
Mr. and Mrs. Du Desheng had heard about the mother and son of the Qiu family beforehand. At first, they thought they came for the two raw stones that Du Anrao had obtained before. After accidentally learning the real purpose of their visit to Du Anrao, they decisively followed them and prepared to watch the show with everyone.
"Master Du!"
However, after not seeing each other for a few days, Du Anrao almost didn't recognize Ms. Qi at first sight.
The poor mother looked much more haggard than before, with dark circles under her eyes so heavy that the powder on her face could hardly cover them. Her whole body was filled with a damp aura that made people subconsciously want to stay away from her.
However, the moment she saw Duan Rao, her originally dead eyes seemed to suddenly come alive, and her eyeballs were bright as if she had seen her savior.
"Uncle Liu, Aunt Qi, you came to see me at this time, could it be that..."
"We found the kid."
Mr. Liu placed a somewhat worn and bulky wooden box on the table. Looking closely, one could see that his hands were trembling slightly.
Du Anrao could tell at a glance that the box was filled with yin energy, and it was self-evident what was inside.
"Miss." Seeing Du Anrao trying to open the box, Butler Du subconsciously shouted, "This box looks a little strange. Let me open it."
Du Anrao shook his head and rejected the good intention of housekeeper Du: "No, I can do it myself. Grandpa and grandma, you all should stay away or hide in the house first. I can solve it quickly."
[The evil spirit in this little ghost box is about to come out. I am afraid that in the past few days, Mr. Liu's brother's family has used this poor child to do something dirty. I am afraid that they will not kill Mr. Liu and his wife. ]
[I have good merits to protect me, so I won't be in any trouble if I get a little bit of Yin Qi. But it's different for the housekeeper uncle. If he gets this stuff, he will definitely get sick. Although my uncle and grandma Qin also have good merits, they are both not young anymore, so it's better not to take the risk.]
When Du Desheng heard that excessive contact with this thing would be harmful to the body, he didn't bother to continue watching the fun. Without saying a word, he took Qin Yanqing's hand and walked inside.
"Since An An has said so, let's go in first and come out after she is done. A Miao, keep an eye on the young lady and don't let anyone bump into her."
After the two old men were sent away, Duanrao no longer had any worries and went forward to open the box.
In an instant, a small object the size of a doll, black in color but with a vaguely recognizable outline, appeared naked in everyone's sight.
The mother and son of the Qiu family had never seen what was in the box beforehand. Even though they were mentally prepared, when they really saw this thing, they couldn't help but feel a jolt in their hearts and their faces turned pale.
The situation of Mr. and Mrs. Liu was not much better. They had seen the things in there before they came, but they were anxious to bring them out. They were more excited and panicked, fearing that the family would find out and they would not be able to escape safely with their children.
Now that their tense nerves were completely relaxed, when they saw the things inside, the suppressed emotions in their hearts completely surged up, and they almost collapsed on the spot.
Du Anrao, however, stared at the small thing in the box with a frown on his face for a long time, his expression so serious that everyone present couldn't help but feel nervous.
"Master Du, is there something wrong with my child?"
Du Anrao was silent for a while, then heaved a sigh of relief: "It's okay, it's okay..."
"fine?"
"Luckily you came a day earlier, so the child hadn't had time to commit murder, and you two didn't suffer any backlash."
"What?" The couple looked at each other in surprise, "Murder?!"
Madam Qi realized something, and her whole body trembled slightly due to excessive excitement: "They really want my child to help them kill people!"
"That's right, and the man they want to kill is somewhat related to you. To be more precise, the two people they want to kill are related to you."
"What? They want to kill more than one person."
"Let's talk about the first person they want to kill. He is your partner, the vice president of your company, and the partner who started the business with Mr. Liu."
Mr. Liu was surprised: "It's him? But why? Lao Yan doesn't have much contact with them, and I haven't heard of any conflicts between them?" Why would it get to such a point of no return?
When Ms. Qi heard what her husband said, she sneered and said sarcastically, "What kind of feud do we have with them? For so many years, we have been calling each other brother, sister-in-law, uncle and aunt. People who don't know would think that our two families have a good relationship. But what is the reality? They wish our whole family would die out!"
"Brother Yan might have met someone in their family at some point, and telling them the truth hurt their noble and fragile self-esteem, so they started to keep an eye on him. It's not impossible."
Mr. Liu was speechless by Ms. Qi's sarcasm and could only smile bitterly.
Du Anrao stroked his chin and hesitated for a moment: "Strictly speaking, this matter is almost the same as what Aunt Qi said."
Mr. Liu: “…”
Qiu family mother and son: "..."
Ms. Qi was also stunned. She never thought that her casual and malicious speculation would actually hit the mark.
After she calmed down, she was so angry that she laughed. She just thought that this family was amazing. When she thought they were vicious and bad enough, they always refreshed her perception of their bottom line.
"To put it simply, it's this Mr. Yan. He has met Mr. Liu's brother several times. He also knows that Mr. Liu has been secretly subsidizing this brother's family. He is a rather vicious judge of people. He has always felt that Mr. Liu's brother's face is not very good. He doesn't look like a sincere and good person. He has secretly reminded Mr. Liu several times, hoping that Mr. Liu can be on guard against his brother."
Ms. Qi suddenly turned to look at her husband: "Is that true?"
Mr. Liu's expression froze slightly, and he said awkwardly, "It seems to be the case."
Thinking back carefully, his good brother seemed to have advised him several times not to be too open with people around him, because sometimes the people who could really hurt him were often his closest relatives.
