"Master, if there's nothing else, I'll go back to work now?" The old man looked at the steward who was about to vomit blood, then glanced at the young lady who was laughing so hard she was about to cry, and after thinking for a moment, he cautiously addressed the master sitting at the head of the table.
Jiang An didn't say anything, but gestured for him to leave. Then, he watched as the old man turned and hurried away, as if afraid he would lose his life if he was too slow.
"Manager Wu, do you have any other tricks up your sleeve? If so, use them quickly. It's almost noon, and your master probably won't be in the mood to have lunch with me today. I need to go back to eat. If you delay and make me go hungry, then you'll be making an enemy of me." Hong Xiaoduo urged.
Looking at Wu Qing's face, which was like a color palette, she first showed anger and embarrassment, then ruthlessness, then determination, then disbelief and frustration, and now she was glaring at her through gritted teeth.
"Master Jiang, judging from his current state, I guess he's out of options and has run out of tricks. What do you plan to do next? Settle it privately? Or hand him over to the authorities?" Hong Xiaoduo pointed at Wu Qing, who was about to explode with anger, and asked Jiang An.
Looking at Wu Qing, Jiang An's feelings were very complicated. If someone could be in charge, then that person must be quite capable. However, this man had set up this scheme more than 20 years ago and had been hiding it for so many years without Jiang An noticing it at all. This showed that he was very meticulous. If it weren't for meeting this girl, Jiang An would have continued to be kept in the dark. If he was lucky, he would have died of illness or old age. If he was unlucky, he would definitely have been murdered by this guy and Pang Shi.
But now, the conspiracy has been exposed, and the trump card he thought he had prepared long ago turned out to be because...
As if that wasn't bad enough for him, Xiao Duo finished him off with a flurry of blows!
Jiang An felt that if she continued to be so sarcastic, he probably wouldn't even have a chance to hand the man over to the authorities before he died from vomiting blood.
It's strange, shouldn't I be the one who should be the most angry? I was tricked and deceived, and I didn't even know that my own child had been switched. I raised the son of my enemy for more than 20 years, so why am I not so angry now?
On the contrary, looking at Wu Qing, he seems rather pitiful and pathetic.
"Don't be so smug. Even if you know, so what? Your own son has already been given a slow-acting poison by me. Only I have the antidote, and there's only one. Someone is keeping it safe for me. If something happens to me, he will destroy the antidote."
"Whether you believe it or not is your business. If you don't care about your son's life, then come and arrest me." Wu Qing said with a cold laugh, then flicked his sleeves and walked out.
The most urgent thing is to leave this place first; as long as we're alive, we can always find a way to rebuild!
Hong Xiaoduo didn't stop her, but followed her out while holding the whip in her hand.
"Xiaoduo, my son?" Jiang An was a little flustered. He thought that Wu Qing was probably threatening him on purpose, but he was also afraid that what Wu Qing said might be true.
"Don't worry, I'm sure your son isn't poisoned." Hong Xiaoduo said without turning her head, then stepped out the door. The DNA testing equipment in the space was very advanced; if Pang Yong really was poisoned, the test results would indicate that.
No matter how spacious the living room of the Chiang family mansion is, if you teach a scoundrel a lesson indoors and damage the tables and chairs, Mr. Chiang won't make you pay for it, but it will affect your performance!
Outside, although there were servants and maids, none of them came very close, so they couldn't hear what was being said inside the hall unless the voices were very loud.
I overheard bits and pieces of information; it seemed that something had happened to the young master, and Aunt Pang was worried? The master was furious?
When the gardener was called in, everyone was wondering why he was called in if the young master was in trouble. No matter how useless or irresponsible the young master was, he was still in trouble, and he was the master's only child. At a time like this, no matter how angry the master was, he should at least go and see how the young master was doing.
What, you still have the mind to care about the flowers, plants, and trees in the mansion?
When Lao Cai came out, they wanted to secretly ask him what was going on inside, why Aunt Pang had suddenly stopped making a sound.
As a result, Lao Cai repeatedly said that he knew nothing and saw nothing, and then ran away.
Now the group was even more curious. If they hadn't known that the master was in a bad mood, they would have gone to the door to eavesdrop.
Suddenly, they saw the manager walk out with a gloomy face. The men were so frightened that they quickly lowered their heads and didn't dare to breathe.
"Hey Wu, stop right there! Did I say you could leave?" A fierce, stern voice suddenly rang in their ears. Huh? The group quickly looked up.
But then they saw the young woman holding a soft whip, looking coldly in the direction of Steward Wu.
My God, how dare she treat Manager Wu like that?
Wu Qing paused briefly in his hurried pace, then continued to walk faster forward, showing no intention of stopping.
"Pretending not to hear won't help." Hong Xiaoduo shouted, and with a burst of energy, she was within reach of the whip in two leaps. She raised the whip in her hand, but instead of striking down, she flicked it towards the waist of the other man. The soft whip wrapped around Wu Qing's body.
"Where do you think you're going? Come back here!" With Hong Xiaoduo's words, the servants and maids stared in disbelief as Steward Wu was lifted from the ground into the air by the whip, then arced to the other end, right in front of the master. He was just a hair's breadth away from hitting the master's feet!
Although Jiang An knew that martial artists were strong, he was still shocked.
Although Manager Wu was not particularly strong, he was not thin either. Yet, he was easily lifted up, tossed around, and thrown down with a whip.
This is different from kicking someone away; this seems to be more difficult, right?
"Don't worry, I'm controlling the force, he won't die. You shouldn't need me for the rest, right?" Hong Xiaoduo said as she rolled up the whip and put it back on her waist.
