Hu Kaicheng was conflicted.
So conflicted he felt like pulling out his hair in clumps.
It was clearly a great achievent, yet inside, it was laced with arsenic.
Should he swallow it or discard it?
After Liu Qinghe left Hu Kaicheng’s study, he imdiately headed to the second courtyard of the Qi Family.
The trial ti had been changed again, and more cases were implicated within.
This ti, even if the village chief’s family from Weston Village took an Immortal Pill, they wouldn’t survive.
Upon hearing this, the Qi Family felt both happy and relieved.
However, just then, Qi Manman suddenly hugged her mother’s neck and whispered: "Mom, there are bad people."
"Hm? What?"
Yi ng was still caught up in her joy and didn’t imdiately react to what her daughter had said.
Qi Manman scratched her face with her chubby little paws and leaned closer to her mother’s ear, saying: "Mom, there are bad people."
"What bad people?"
Yi ng’s smile abruptly vanished, but soon returned, as she told Mrs. Qi she’d take Manbao to relieve herself, then carried her daughter toward the back door.
In the backyard, though the laughter from the front could still be heard, the surroundings were much quieter.
"Daughter, what did you an by saying there are bad people?"
Yi ng’s smile was completely gone as she held her daughter and asked softly.
This ti Qi Manman didn’t scratch her face but grabbed the little tuft of hair on top of her head: "Just, just bad people."
Knowing her words were unclear, Qi Manman’s chubby little face showed urgency: "Just, just, bad people helping bad people. Mom, I can’t explain it clearly."
The little girl actually had a good grasp of language, speaking fluently, even managing to correct the sounds she used to confuse as a toddler.
The sudden inability to explain clearly, Yi ng knew it wasn’t the child sick but the content being too serious to be explicitly stated.
Instinctively, she looked up at the sky, which had changed from a starry clear sky before Liu Qinghe arrived, to being densely clouded.
An indescribable sense of oppression made Yi ng feel suffocated, as if even breathing had beco much harder.
Bad people helping bad people.
Yi ng carefully analyzed this phrase.
Given recent events, it’s certain one of the bad people is the village chief’s family from Weston Village.
Then, who does the other bad person refer to?
"Daughter, do you an the people who want to harm you and Xiao Shi helped soone, or soone helped them?"
Yi ng still couldn’t guess who the other bad person referred to, so she could only try to lead her daughter to divulge more information.
The village chief’s family from Weston Village had to die; otherwise, her heart’s hatred could not be dispelled.
Therefore, it’s crucial to find out who is helping them; only then can those villains be nailed down.
Qi Manman blinked and said: "Soone is helping those big villains!"
"And does this person know anyone in our family?"
Yi ng continued to guide.
Qi Manman tilted her head, in deep thought, with a hint of cuteness.
But Yi ng had no ti to savor the adorableness of her daughter; all her mind was focused on awaiting the ergence of the next clue.
Waiting during such tis felt especially slow.
Just as Yi ng was about to narrow down the scope, the little girl in her arms brightened her eyes and opened her mouth.
Then, Yi ng simultaneously heard two different sounds in her ear.
