She knew that Honglian drank the Biluochun tea that had been spiked, but she was unaware of what had happened at the scene.

"System, what's going on? What happened to Aunt Hong..." Li Xia asked the system in her heart.

Could it be that this matter was arranged by Chen?

After all, the young waiter she hid in the mansion was originally prepared for her.

This was beyond my expectation.

But in this way, the incident came to the end of the alley.

Li Xia had no idea.
