"Why don't we just give him some money? That way we can save a lot," the construction crew member said angrily. "Sigh, what else can we do?"
Liu Qiang immediately rejected the idea, saying, "If I give it to him, he'll have to give it to someone else, and that won't do."
The group reached a stalemate, and no one dared to step forward.
That's just how people are; when a scholar meets a soldier, he can't reason with him and is afraid of those who are unreasonable.
But Liu Nian was not afraid.
She sneered and said, "Drink?"
Unlike the other families, some of whom had their own difficulties or were simply ignorant, Cui Daxing was genuinely unreasonable and purely trying to extort money from the village committee.
"You think I wouldn't dare drink it?" Cui Daxing unscrewed the bottle cap, waved it at everyone, and said, "Let me tell you, if I die today, it's all the Liu family's fault! They forced me to this!"
As he spoke, he was about to pour it into his mouth.
"Wait!" Liu Nian reached out to stop him.
A smug glint appeared in Cui Daxing's eyes, and he snorted, "What's wrong? Are you afraid of getting involved in someone's death too?"
"It's not that I'm afraid of getting someone killed," Liu Nian said with a cold smile, snatching the pesticide from Cui Daxing's hand. "I'm afraid you won't die."
Liu Nian put the pesticide under his nose and smelled it. It tasted sweet, unlike the pungent smell of pesticide.
"You wait, I'll get you a really good bottle that will make you wish you were dead." After saying that, Liu Nian threw the pesticide aside and took out a small white bottle from his pocket.
Cui Daxing has been clamoring to drink pesticide for days, which Liu Nian prepared in advance—a good thing she bought from Taobao.
"Here you go." Liu Nian said with a slight smile, "Mine will definitely work better than yours."
Cui Daxing had no desire to die; he just wanted to scare these people so he could swindle some money from them.
For a moment, Cui Daxing didn't know whether to accept the offer or not. If he didn't accept it, he felt he would lose face. If he accepted it, what if he was forced to drink it? What if he died? He didn't want to really die.
"Here, let me unscrew the cap for you." Liu Nian twisted the cap open with force, handed it over, and said, "Take it. The sooner you die, the sooner you'll be reborn. I hope you'll be reborn into a good family in your next life, and maybe you can even marry a beautiful wife."
Cui Daxing's hand trembled, but he didn't dare to take it. He realized that he had finally met someone even more unreasonable than her.
"Take it!" Liu Nian shoved it into his hand and shouted sternly, "Drink it now!"
Cui Daxing was startled, and by the time he realized what was happening, he was already holding the bottle of pesticide in his hand.
Is Liu Nian really not afraid of his death? Not afraid of getting involved in someone's murder? Cui Daxing wondered, is this thing fake too? Just to scare him?
He tentatively held the bottle of pesticide under his nose and smelled it; a pungent, acrid odor wafted out.
Anyone who has worked in the fields in the countryside has smelled this; it's a pesticide that can really kill people!
Liu Nian coldly replied, "Who are you trying to scare with your death? Drink it. If you die today, I'm not afraid to give you my life in return. If you don't drink it today, I'll have the workers start working. If you want to stop me, you'll have to drink this bottle of pesticide!"
It's very simple, we just want to see if he's willing to risk his life.
Everyone was startled and looked at the white bottle in Cui Daxing's hand.
I didn't expect Liu Nian to be so reckless; she's really not afraid of getting people killed.
Cui Daxing didn't want to drink it, nor did he want the workers to erect a utility pole in front of his house, so he pretended to throw the bottle away, saying, "Let's see who dares to touch it!"
Liu Nian swiftly snatched the bottle and poured it into Cui Daxing's mouth.
"Okay, since you say we can't move it, then we'll drink it!"
Before Cui Daxing could react, Liu Nian poured the pungent pesticide into his mouth.
The taste was spicy and had a strong, pungent odor that shot straight to the top of his head.
"You—" Cui Daxing coughed with difficulty, his hand trembling as he reached into his throat.
He felt like vomiting, and he kept picking at his throat with his fingers, feeling extremely nauseous.
Liu Nian crossed his arms and said coldly, "This medicine is really effective. Once it gets into your mouth, you can expect to suffer excruciating pain."
