When Xu Tingchuan arrived at Li Jing's tomb, all that remained was a flashlight and a small, dug pit.
The small pit was square at the bottom, which meant something had been placed there.
Li Rui really put the antidote here!
Xu Tingchuan was both surprised and anxious, and ran after the dark figure.
The dark figure was quite agile, and it darted quickly into the dense thicket behind the mountain.
Xu Tingchuan ignored the thorny vines and chased after the man desperately, his face and hands scratched by the sharp blades of grass.
The two chased each other for a while in the back mountain until the man was cornered and stopped in front of a cliff.
Xu Tingchuan emerged from the bushes and looked at the figure under the moonlight; it seemed to be a petite woman.
He already knew who it was, and he shone his flashlight on the figure.
As he expected, it was Su Yan!
He had already suspected that Su Yan might know better where Li Rui would hide the things, so he had someone watching her.
I don't know how she managed to avoid being seen by his men and get here before him!
The wooden box she was holding tightly in her hands must be what he was looking for!
"Give me the things." Xu Tingchuan looked at Su Yan's face, and perhaps because of her excessive plastic surgery, it looked incredibly terrifying in this setting.
Holding the mud-covered iron box in her hand, Su Yan looked at Xu Tingchuan's anxious expression and retreated towards the edge of the cliff.
Xu Tingchuan quickly took two steps forward.
Su Yan stretched out her arm, placed the box outside the broken wall, smiled at him, and said leisurely, "Don't come any closer, or I'll throw this box down."
Xu Tingchuan stopped in his tracks. He was about two meters away from Su Yan. He stared intently at the box, his breathing slightly labored. "I'm not going over there. You come over here, give me the thing, and we'll make a deal."
“You know what I want.” Su Yan stared at Xu Tingchuan’s face with fascination.
Xu Tingchuan suppressed his disgust and said calmly, "I already have evidence that you switched your father's medicine. If we make a trade, I can keep those things from the police and help you establish yourself in the Su family and become the true heir of the group."
"Hehe, the conditions are really generous, very attractive." Su Yan smiled somewhat sickly. "But do you know why I wanted all of that? I didn't ask for much from beginning to end, I just hoped you would look at me more, that I would be in your eyes and in your heart. But you actually fell in love with such an ordinary woman, she is not good enough for you at all!"
If she lost to Su Yan, she could understand it. She had been losing to Su Yan since birth. Su Yan was better than her in everything. She couldn't compete with her, so she wanted to get plastic surgery to become her. But why should she lose to Ni Sitian?
Aside from being a few years younger than her, Ni Sitian is superior to her in every way—family background, education, and appearance. She's just a spoiled, brainless woman!
"Calm down and think carefully. Do you really want to be disgraced and go to jail? Everything you have now is enough for you to live a comfortable life for the rest of your days. You will never have to live in anyone's shadow again. Don't you want that kind of life?" What Xu Tingchuan said about Su Chengwen was just his guess. He didn't expect it to actually reveal the truth.
This woman has gone completely mad; she even tried to harm her own father. He really couldn't imagine what else she wouldn't do!
