Su Shikun looked at Su Wan with disdain, "Why didn't you die in the countryside? Why did you come back? If you hadn't come back, Qingqing wouldn't have died! You're the one who should have died!"
Su Wan's eyes remained calm; she had anticipated this outcome. She had finally spoken her mind, and Su Shikun had probably been holding it in for a long time.
It must have been really tough on him.
"Don't think I don't know! You killed Qingqing! I'm going to kill you to avenge her!"
Su Shikun was in a state of madness, and Su Wan had no doubt that if he could make a move, he would kill Su Wan without hesitation.
Su Wan stepped forward, looked at Su Shikun's face, and sneered: "Did you think that if someone drugged us first, we would just fall asleep and die, and be at your mercy?"
A flash of astonishment crossed Su Shikun's eyes, which was followed by an immediate outburst of curses.
But Su Wan still caught that look of astonishment. She stared into Su Shikun's eyes and said something that went straight to his throat: "Someone like you, who is disloyal and unfilial, who doesn't even care about the life or death of his own parents, and who even wants to kill his own sister, is a disgrace to the word 'human'!"
"Do you think I killed Su Qing?"
"Isn't that right!"
"no."
But Su Wan didn't tell him who it was. What she wanted was to leave a question mark in Su Shikun's mind. Even if you told him, he might not believe you.
Given his personality, he would probably think that someone was deliberately trying to smear others.
To reiterate, he has lost all humanity.
Su Shikun looked at Su Wan and said, "Tell me, tell me who killed Qingqing!"
Su Wan stood back next to Qin Yi, no longer speaking, letting Su Shikun squat on the ground and shout arrogantly.
He was certain that given Qin Yi's and the others' identities, they wouldn't do anything excessive to him.
Qin Yi couldn't hide the murderous intent in his eyes. When he had the thought of killing Su Wan, he wanted to shut Su Shikun up. Su Shikun kept cursing and shouting, which woke up the people around him. Seeing him like this, they couldn't help but look him over again and again.
Many people were amazed by how quickly Su Shikun changed his tune, finding it astonishing.
"Tie them up."
At Qin Yi's command, Lin Changchun tied Su Shikun up tightly with a rope. Finding Su Shikun too noisy, Lin Changchun used a rag to gag him completely.
Then they grabbed Su Shikun and locked him in an empty room in Li Xiaohong's house.
Su Wan opened the cabinet door in the room. Yi Wa huddled inside, looking at Su Wan with a nervous expression. Li Xiaohong's face was pale, and her lips trembled uncontrollably.
She exclaimed, "Yiwa!" and rushed towards him. She looked him up and down to make sure he was not injured before holding him tightly in her arms. Tears streamed down Li Xiaohong's face.
"My poor child."
Su Wan walked over, handed her a towel, and said softly, "Sister Xiaohong, we didn't do anything to Yiwa. I believe you must have your reasons. Why don't you tell us and we'll help you?"
Li Xiaohong shook her head silently, tears streaming down her face, looking both frightened and apprehensive.
Su Wan glanced back at Qin Yi and then gently comforted him, "I know you and my sister are good friends, and you don't want to hurt us, right? Just tell us, and even if we can't cure my poison, we will do our best to help you."
Su Wan was very patient. She squatted down in front of Li Xiaohong and gently comforted her for a long time. Li Xiaohong just held Yiwa, and neither of them said a word.
Qin Yi walked over and looked at Yiwa, who was being held tightly by Li Xiaohong. "If I'm not mistaken, you have another daughter. They kidnapped your daughter and are forcing you to use the antidote to control Wanwan and manipulate us, is that right?"
Li Xiaohong suddenly looked up at Qin Yi, her eyes filled with disbelief.
This man is terrifying. How did he figure it out?
Qin Yi continued, "Don't be nervous, we won't hurt you. Just do what you normally do from now on. As long as you don't hurt Wanwan, we'll find a way to help you save your daughter."
Li Xiaohong held Yiwa and choked up, tears streaming down her face. Yiwa, understanding, wiped away her mother's tears and gently comforted her.
She was a woman raising two children alone, and life was already difficult enough. On top of that, those thugs wanted to kidnap her daughter, Yuzhu, and threaten her.
She didn't want to, but she had no choice.
If she doesn't do as they say, they'll kill their daughter.
Her poor Yuzhu was only six years old!
With tears streaming down her face, she apologized to Su Wan and the others, "They forced me to lead you to the Gu God Temple."
Zheng Qing and his group originally planned to bring Qin Yi and his companions to the Gu God Temple, control them, extract the secrets from Qin Yi, and then have Su Wan reveal the formula.
But Zheng Qing didn't expect that Qin Yi had arranged for someone else to ruin his plan.
After listening to Li Xiaohong finish her story in fits and starts, Su Wan stepped forward to comfort her: "Don't worry, there will definitely be a way."
Qin Yi pondered for a moment, then asked Li Xiaohong, "Do you know any other places where they've stayed?"
Li Xiaohong shook her head.
Su Wan and Qin Yi exchanged a glance. Su Wan stepped forward and helped Li Xiaohong up. "Sister Xiaohong, take Yiwa back to your room to rest."
Li Xiaohong slowly got up, and Su Wan and Yi Wa, one big and one small, helped Li Xiaohong out of the room.
After Li Xiaohong left, Cui Zhengming looked at Qin Yi apologetically: "Little Qin, I'm sorry, I will definitely find a way to deal with Zhengqing."
Qin Yi knew that Cui Zhengming felt guilty and believed that Zhengqing's actions were related to him.
But Zhengqing is this kind of person. Whether he is Cui Zhengming's junior brother or not, the outcome will not be much different. They have different positions, and Zhengqing is unlikely to change his ways. They will always be on opposite sides.
Now that things have come to this, former fellow disciples have become enemies. There is an insurmountable hatred between Zhengqing and him, and their reunion will inevitably be a life-or-death struggle.
Su Wan pushed the door open and came in. Cui Zhengming's face regained its faint smile. He looked Su Wan up and down and said, "Wan, you'll be better soon."
Su Wan smiled, not wanting to expose his forced smile.
"I must thank Mr. Cui."
After exchanging a few pleasantries, Cui Zhengming also walked out.
Everyone was exhausted after a long day, and after this incident, they slept very soundly in the middle of the night. When the rooster crowed, it was already bright daylight. Su Wan and Qin Yi didn't have the habit of sleeping in, but when Su Wan got up, Qin Yi was no longer beside her. She stretched and got out of bed.
When I came out, I happened to see Chen Qianlan coming out of her room. She looked haggard and hadn't slept all night.
"sister."
Seeing Chen Qianlan's listless appearance, she glanced at the door behind Chen Qianlan and couldn't help but worry, "How is Bai Yuan?"
Yesterday, Chen Qianlan said that Jiang Baiyuan might have a fever last night. Judging from Chen Qianlan's condition, she probably didn't sleep much last night.
Chen Qianlan, with large dark circles under her eyes, said, "I had a fever last night, but it's gone now, and I'm fast asleep."
Chen Qianlan wanted to ask about Su Shikun's matter. She overheard the gist of it in the room. Jiang Baiyuan couldn't be left alone. She heard that everyone had gone over there, and that Su Wan was fine, so she didn't go.
"Wanwan, last night...?"
