Meng Kuo's cousin, Zhu Zhuliang, arrived on the morning of the third day, her face somewhat pale.
Huo Chen frowned: "Are you injured?"
Zhu Zhuliang shook her head: "It's alright, I'll take care of business first."
"Thank you so much," Aunt Chi said repeatedly.
I always bother people.
Zhu Zhuliang went to the east room without looking back and came out in about half an hour.
"Is it okay?"
"Okay. Huo Chenyi, come with me for a moment."
Zhu Zhuliang's expression was not good. After speaking, she took the lead and left the courtyard.
Huo Chenyi gave the Chi family a reassuring look, and then followed them out.
"Father, elder brother, let's go inside."
Sister-in-law Chi felt utterly exhausted, both physically and mentally.
I've been at my parents' house for three days now, and I haven't had a single day of peace.
"Sister-in-law, you're still weak. Go back to your room and rest. Don't worry about these trivial matters."
"Um."
Li Mingfan's wife is also quite annoying.
It's been three days and the problem is still unresolved, which makes people anxious and uneasy.
It's been three days already... sigh!
Hopefully, after today, Li Mingrong will never appear in their lives again.
The Chi family members sat in the side room and did not disturb them.
No one knows what was said, but soon from the east-facing room came Li Mingrong's inhuman, ghostly cries! Wails! Cries of deep regret!
"Do you think Li Mingrong might regret it so much that he'll commit suicide?" Old Man Chi asked.
Aunt Chi rolled her eyes at him: "Someone like Li Mingrong, committing suicide? In your next life!"
Even if Li Mingrong killed his entire family, he wouldn't break down, much less commit suicide.
In his eyes, no one's life was more important than his own.
Even if you add up the lives of your wife, children, parents, and everyone else, it's all the same.
As expected.
After the initial shock, Li Mingrong quickly composed herself.
Old Man Li asked him for money.
"What money?"
"Le Huai stole all the money from the house!"
Li Mingrong's eyes flickered, he shrugged and said in a roguish manner, "They were all on my wife, they were blown away."
"Impossible! The money must be on you! You've hidden it! Tell me, where is the money?!"
Old Man Li denied it outright.
How could he not understand the wolf cub he gave birth to?
How could I possibly entrust my money to someone else?
He must have hidden it in a place he considered extremely safe.
No matter how much Old Man Li and Li Mingfan pressed him, Li Mingrong refused to give an answer.
Finally, it was Sister-in-law Chi who spoke.
“In that case, Chen Yi has brought quite a few guards. I’ll call Chen Yi over and have someone take Li Mingrong out and give him a good beating. He’ll definitely tell me where the money is.”
As soon as Sister-in-law Chi finished speaking, she saw Li Mingrong's extremely resentful eyes shoot over!
"Li Xiaomei! I'm your own brother, how could you be so cruel? How can you face our parents?"
"Smack!"
Sister-in-law Chi raised her hand and slapped him hard, her face cold as winter snow: "For the first time, I hate myself for not being ruthless enough! If I were ruthless enough, I should have killed you when you found me!"
That way, your mother won't be killed by you!
ruthless?
She only regretted that she wasn't ruthless enough!
"Stop talking nonsense and call someone over."
Li Mingfan now finds it annoying to even look at Li Mingrong.
Old Man Li was even worse!
Li Mingrong was taken away while he was struggling.
In less than half an hour, Li Mingrong spat it out.
The money is in hand.
But looking at the money in his hand, Old Man Li suddenly burst into tears.
What's the use of money?
He wants a partner!
Taking a deep breath, Old Man Li felt dizzy. He forced himself to say to Huo Chenyi, "Young Master Chenyi, please... help me take him away... I can't do it myself."
"Dad! I'm your own son!"
Li Mingrong, who had been lying on the ground like a dead dog, suddenly felt an unparalleled surge of strength within him upon hearing these words, and struggled to his feet.
But just as he was about to get close to Old Man Li, he was kicked to the ground by the other party!
If it weren't for the fear that he might kill him and give him nightmares, Old Man Li would have killed him right now!
"In your next life, be a human being! Do you understand?"
With Old Man Li's grief-stricken roar, Li Mingrong was gagged, stuffed into a sack, and taken away.
As for how he ultimately died, no one cared, and Huo Chenyi didn't say anything.
Anyway, the matter is finally resolved.
After Li Mingrong was taken away, Old Man Li seemed to have all the burdens in his heart lifted, and he fainted.
The doctor said that the cause was a combination of shock, anger, excessive sadness, and exhaustion.
Let him get a good night's sleep and rest for a few days, and he'll be fine.
However, after that, Old Man Li became taciturn and rarely spoke more than ten words a day, but that's another story.
"Brother Chenyi, what did Sweet Melon Brother's cousin say to you? Is there any similarity between Li Mingrong's poison and the Gu poison that my second brother and that Wang Qi girl planted back then?"
Chi Tang grabbed Huo Chenyi and asked.
She had been holding these words in for a long time.
Now that we've finally resolved all the other issues, we can ask for clarification.
"What happened?"
"What do you mean?"
"Chenyi, is it true?"
The other members of the Chi family also quickly asked.
Regarding the Lover Gu poison in Chi Erchuan, they still can't figure out where Shi Hongxing got the Gu from!
This is absolutely unbelievable!
