The construction team members had other accommodations in the village, while Captain Liao and a few others stayed behind.
Before long, Mr. Zhang's porridge was ready.
The kitchen staff was waiting for him to cook, and they were short-handed, so the proprietress called Zhang Yao over as well.
Help serve the dishes.
Bowls of steaming hot meat porridge, along with delicious side dishes, are beautifully arranged on the table.
The exploration team was starving, so they picked up their chopsticks and started eating the side dishes first!
Yanxu was exhausted after a busy day and was holding a bowl of hot porridge, ready to drink it.
A fleeting, unintentional glance—
I noticed a few specks of reflection on the surface of the porridge!
She rushed forward and forcefully knocked the porridge out of his hand!
The proprietress's face darkened immediately. "Miss Yan, you can't waste food! You asked us to make this midnight snack, and then you deliberately dumped it on the ground. Do you think we honest people are easy to bully?"
Although they offered a lot of money, their agritainment business made a lot of money because of this big deal.
Can these rich people really not cherish the porridge that I painstakingly cooked?
She slammed the tray onto the table, where it collided with the bowls and chopsticks, making a loud, jarring sound!
Yan Miao ignored him.
She turned on her phone's flashlight and shone it on the bowl of porridge on the ground, which originally belonged to Yanxu.
It was full of tiny shards of glass!
"How could there be glass here!"
Yanxu pointed at the porridge on the ground and shouted.
No wonder his sister wouldn't let him drink it; one sip and he'd be sending him straight to meet the King of Hell!
Captain Liao realized something was wrong and told the team members to put down their bowls. He then carefully inspected each bowl of porridge.
It was found in everyone's porridge!
"Boss lady, we asked you to make midnight snacks, not to kill our brothers!"
If I were to drink this bowl, ruining my throat would be the least of my worries; the worst part would be losing my life, which I barely escaped with my life!
After a night of running around and working hard, Yan Miao was exhausted, and now she had run into someone trying to sabotage her.
She suddenly jumped up and overturned the entire table!
Veins bulged on her forehead as she forced back her anger and demanded, "You'd better give me an explanation for why there were shards of glass in the porridge?"
"It wasn't just one or two pieces; the entire piece of glass was crushed and then put in!"
This is intentional homicide!
The proprietress was startled when she saw the reflective glass shards on the ground and stammered, "We absolutely did not put any glass shards there!"
"Our family isn't well-off, but after taking on such a big customer like you, Old Zhang keeps talking about how he's met a god of wealth. We would never harm anyone!"
“Miss Yan, this porridge was cooked by Old Zhang himself, and my daughter and I served it to you personally. I can guarantee that no one put anything in it!”
The proprietress was crying her heart out, "Old Zhang! Old Zhang! Come out quickly, something's happened!"
She was so frightened that she panicked and hurriedly called Mr. Zhang out.
After clarifying the situation, Mr. Zhang innocently assured them, "Miss Yan, Mr. Yan, it really wasn't us! I have no grudge against you, and I have no reason to harm anyone. If something happens to you, I'll have to go to jail."
"I have elderly parents to support and young children to raise, it's not worth it!"
Yan Xu stood to one side with her arms crossed, nodding in agreement.
He makes a good point!
Captain Liao was furious, and he didn't care about anything else.
He stepped forward and grabbed Mr. Zhang by the collar, saying, "You cooked the porridge, and your wife brought it over. Is there a fourth person in the kitchen?"
"Speak! Did you take money from someone? Who contacted you?"
The porridge was full of glass shards, but luckily Miss Yan discovered it in time!
The brothers were starving. If they were to gulp it down in one go, it would be a matter of several lives!
"That's right, besides the three of us, who else could it be but you guys at the farmhouse?"
The team members were arguing with Boss Zhang, and the argument was getting heated.
Yan Miao noticed that Zhang Yao, who was holding a tray in the corner, hadn't said a word from beginning to end.
Her hands were trembling slightly, revealing her inner fear.
But her eyes were particularly intriguing—
Cold, sinister, and hateful!
All emotions point directly to the words!
It was her!
Yan Miao understood instantly, and she quickly grabbed Zhang Yao's hand.
Zhang Yao gripped him tightly, unusually refusing to let go. "What are you doing? Let go of me! Daddy, save me!"
Ignoring her struggles, Yan Miao forcefully pried open her five fingers, revealing that her left hand, clenched into a fist, was already a bloody mess.
There were still tiny shards of glass left in my palm!
Upon seeing this, the proprietress froze on the spot, a chill running down her spine!
She just couldn't understand why her daughter would harm someone.
Mr. Zhang was shocked and immediately slapped her twice across the face. "Yaoyao, why did you do this? This is illegal, this is murder, do you know that?!"
He was panting heavily when he yelled at Zhang Yao and raised his hand to hit her again!
Zhang Yao's face was swollen high, and the proprietress cried as she stopped him, "Husband of the child, are you trying to kill her? Let's talk this out. This doesn't prove that Yao Yao did it!"
"She has shards of glass in her hand, how else can she prove it? The people here aren't fools; they won't unconditionally forgive her like we do!"
"If you're wrong, you should admit it!"
"There's still room for reconciliation!"
Mr. Zhang's fury contrasted sharply with Zhang Yao's calmness.
Zhang Yao gave a sarcastic smirk. "I killed that scumbag. I'm doing justice for God. What do you know?"
She laughed brazenly, pointing at Yan Xu defiantly, "So what if I want to kill you? I'm not even 18 yet. Even if I break the law, what can you do to me!"
"Smack—"
Mr. Zhang was extremely disappointed and slapped her hard again.
He was trembling with rage. That bastard!
"Is it because of Fang Meina?"
Yan Miao couldn't think of any other reason, so it could only be Fang Meina.
Upon hearing this, Zhang Yao turned around and glared fiercely at Yan Miao, "So you really know about the bad things your brother did. It seems what they said online is true. You're all in cahoots, bullying Sister Meina!"
What's being said online?
Yan Xu asked, still clueless.
Zhang Yao angrily opened Weibo and threw her phone at him, "You still want to pretend? It's all exposed online! Just wait to be cursed to death by my fans, and the police will come and arrest you!"
The internet is flooded with stories about the feud between Fang Meina and Yan's Media!
The reason is that Fang Meina's contract with Yan's Media is about to expire, so the company gradually cuts off her resources.
At the same time, Fang Meina was often ridiculed by her peers and seniors when attending events.
They say she's treacherous; the company helped her get to where she is today, yet she acts like a heartless ingrate.
Fang Meina, for some unknown reason, used her well-known alternate account to incite people to cyberbully Yanshi Media!
She cried out in her solitary voice—
After Yanxu's attempts to sexually harass her failed, he continued to harass and threaten her until she could no longer bear it and decided to terminate her contract!
She said that she had attempted suicide several times, but it was her fans who gave her strength, which allowed her to barely persevere!
