Tao Chumo sat down and asked, "What do you want to ask me?"
Dibao held a round white porcelain teacup in his hand, looked at her calmly, and asked, "Didn't you notice that there are no other customers in this tea restaurant?"
Tao Chumo seemed to have just realized that the person that Qi Wei paid attention to the moment she entered the room was the even more noble Di Bao.
Tao Bao suddenly became Di Bao, and his wealth and background were something others could never dream of achieving in several lifetimes.
Even her old self couldn't reach him.
She couldn't understand why both Tao Bao and Di Bao had such good fortunes, while she had fallen so deeply into poverty. She was filled with resentment...
Tao Chumo's mood was affected and he seemed a little unhappy. "Business is not good, right?"
"No, I cleared the area."
"Does Mr. Si know that you came to see me? I told you something about Tao Bao before, and he didn't let me come to Kyoto."
"So, whether you come to Kyoto or not, you're just trying to trip me up behind my back, right?"
Tao Chumo's eyes flickered, trying to cover up what she had done. "Behind? What did I do? You're not being very clear."
Di Bao didn't press the issue any further, but seemed to change the subject, "How is your relationship with Gu Che?"
"Very good." Even if there was something, how could Tao Chumo possibly tell the truth about being treated like a dog by Gu Che? In front of outsiders, she was still the proud eldest daughter of the Tao family!
"You've been living with him, and it seems he's been really good to you. After all, we were family before." Di Bao said, looking at her sharply, "Qin Yue said you told her that Si Yuanqi was still alive. So let me ask you, where is the living Si Yuanqi?"
"Me? Are you mistaken?" Tao Chumo found it funny. "Why would I tell her this? Absolutely not! You know, I have been in Bin City and have no contact with Qin Yue. We have no intersection." As long as she doesn't admit it, no one can do anything to her!
Di Bao faced her hypocrisy without being impatient. He spoke slowly, "Qin Yue has been to Bin City."
"Just because you've been to Bin City doesn't mean you'll come find me, right?"
"Then find Qin Yue to confront him?"
"Even if we confronted her, what she said might not be true. I think she's deliberately trying to sow discord between you and me. After all, she hates you for taking away Si Yuanqi, whom she loves," Tao Chumo said reasonably. "Miss Di, didn't you come to me to ask about Tao Bao's feelings? Why do you keep asking about Qin Yue? I really... don't understand."
Dibao stopped drinking from the teacup and looked at her intently. Then he flicked his hand and splashed the unfinished tea in Tao Chumo's face.
"Ah!" Tao Chumo stood up in shock, his face covered not only with tea but also with anger. "Tao Bao, are you sick?"
"I hate people calling me Tao Bao the most, so, in order to calm my inner anger, it would not be too much to give you a little punishment?" Di Bao said.
Two well-trained men came out from inside.
"What do you want to do?" Tao Chumo was so scared that she turned and ran, but after taking a few steps, her way was blocked. Then a slap came violently, knocking Tao Chumo to the ground and spitting blood.
But before she could recover, two men approached again. They grabbed Tao Chumo and slapped her in the face, causing blood to spurt from her mouth and nose. Then they pressed her down on the table in front of Dibao, awaiting the verdict.
"Ah, why is he beaten so badly?" Dibao said sympathetically. "It looks so pitiful."
Tao Chumo's face was beaten like a pig's head, and it looked really miserable.
"I'm asking you again, what did you say to Qin Yue? If you don't tell me your plan honestly, I'll never let you get out of this store." Di Bao poured himself another cup of tea and drank it.
"You...deceived me here on purpose!" Tao Chumo came over now. Di Bao didn't come to her to find out what Tao Bao did, but what she did. "Let that bitch Qin Yue come here. I want to confront her! Why are you accusing me so unfairly?"
"Qin Yue is dead." Di Bao stared at the teacup in his hand in a daze.
Tao Chumo was stunned. Dead? Then she laughed out loud, "Fang Yu and Qin Yue both deserved to die, but Fang Yu is still alive and well. Dibao, don't you think you're pathetic? Si Minghan has more than just you in his heart! He seems to treat Fang Yu differently?"
"You're still trying to sow discord at this hour, Tao Chumo! You're really not going to cry until you see the coffin?" Di Bao's eyes were icy. "Beat them to death, just keep your breath!"
The bodyguard picked up Tao Chumo and threw her to the ground.
Tao Chumo's face was pale and she was terrified.
If she were to be crippled here, no one would know what would happen to her. Even if she died, with Si Minghan manipulating everything behind the scenes, everything would be silent. Just thinking about it made her cold. She didn't want that! She still had so much time left in her life, how could she live a life worse than death? And she'd been defeated by Tao Bao. If she lost to Tao Bao, she'd die with regret! "Wait a minute!" Tao Chumo begged for mercy when the bodyguards attacked. "Please spare me, I'll tell you the truth. I...I saw Qin Yue in Bin City. I knew she was too sad about Si Yuanqi's death. I deliberately told her that Si Yuanqi was still alive to give her hope of life. It's not a bad thing! And what does her death have to do with me? If Si Yuanqi is alive, she should want to live more, right? I mean well! You can't blame me for Qin Yue's death, right? Why don't you blame Si Minghan? He was the one who killed Si Yuanqi! There's one more thing I want to tell you. Actually, you are Tao Bao. You just forgot and don't remember anything. If you remember, you will know that the only unforgivable person is Si Minghan!"
Di Bao narrowed his eyes slightly, "Let's put things in perspective. I want to investigate Qin Yue's case now."
"I have said everything I need to say. I really don't know anything else!" Tao Chumo said.
Dibao put down the cup, stood up, walked to Tao Chumo, and looked down at her.
This wasn't her first time meeting Tao Chumo. How could she have only told Qin Yue about Si Yuanqi's affair? If she hadn't sent Qin Yue to cause trouble, Qin Yue wouldn't have been so extreme and ultimately committed suicide by jumping off a building...
Did Tao Chumo think that she couldn't be deceived because she hadn't recovered her memory?
She slowly squatted down and stared at her, "Tao Chumo, I forgot to tell you one thing... I have recovered my memory."
"What...what?" Tao Chumo was stunned.
Di Bao sneered, "Send her to her villa and have someone watch her. If she tries to run away, break her legs!"
Tao Chumo recognized the imposition of imprisonment and said in an excited and sharp voice, "Tao Bao, what are you doing? How dare you imprison me!"
"What am I afraid of? I even want to kill you!" Di Bao really wanted to kill her, to put an end to it all and prevent future troubles! She stepped on Tao Chumo's fingers and crushed them hard -
