Chapter 1645: The story of Mrs. Hai Wei in 1644
“Not at all,” Tan Rou said with her eyes open, telling a blatant lie. “He was just a passerby, an unlucky one who got shot by Gand with a needle. I happened to pass by and felt that Gand shouldn’t do that, so I kindly saved the passerby.”
Tan Rou didn’t believe Mada Hai Wei’s words, and naturally, Mada Hai Wei didn’t believe Tan Rou’s, but neither of them exposed the other.
Mada Hai Wei said very cooperatively, “Miss Rou really is a kind person.”
Tan Rou was really worried her next words would be “a kind person should stay and keep company,” but fortunately, Mada Hai Wei didn’t say that.
“It’s very hot outside, Miss Rou, why don’t you co inside the house,” Mada Hai Wei said as she turned and headed into the house, not at all worried that Tan Rou would shoot her from behind.
Indeed, Tan Rou did want to shoot Mada Hai Wei from behind, but she hadn’t got what she ca for yet, and the crazy lady couldn’t die yet.
After entering the door, Tan Rou saw those two creepy standing plaques again, but they had changed: Last ti, the man wore black clothes, this ti they were white, and the little girl’s clothes had also changed. It seed that Mada Hai Wei had made quite a number of these plaques.
“Take a seat anywhere,” Mada Hai Wei said as she returned to the dining table. “My family and I are having lunch. If you’d like to eat, you can sit down and have so—my family won’t mind.”
“Heh,”Tan Rou sneered and complained in her own country’s language: “Even if they wanted to object, they couldn’t, because they are all dead.”
“Yes, they are all dead, so they can’t stop ,” Mada Hai Wei responded naturally, speaking to Tan Rou in Country C’s language.
Tan Rou was a bit surprised—wasn’t Country C’s language said to be very difficult to learn? How co everyone seems to speak it?
Mada Hai Wei said very calmly, “Don’t be tense; I specifically learned Country C’s language when I was in school, so it’s very normal for to speak it.”
“Oh.” Tan Rou took a seat opposite Mada Hai Wei. “Mada Hai Wei, I don’t have ti to sit down and watch you eat lunch. I ca here today to get the antidote. State your terms, and as long as it’s within my power, I will agree.”
“Then you can listen to my story,” Mada Hai Wei said with a smile; “the story about and my husband.”
Tan Rou really didn’t want to hear Mada Hai Wei’s story. Last ti she wanted to tell her story, but Tan Rou was in a hurry to find Zhuang Liu and had no patience to listen to her.
So now, it seed like she was specifically here to listen to the story.
“After I listen to the story, you’ll give the antidote?” Tan Rou asked.
Mada Hai Wei nodded, “I will.”
Tan Rou touched the gun in her pocket and replied, “Fine, I’ll listen to your story.”
Mada Hai Wei began telling a very long story.
“At eighteen, I went abroad to study. On the day I enrolled, I t the man I would love the most in my life. His na was Ming, and he was from the sa country as you,” Mada Hai Wei began. “He was a very excellent botanist. By the ti I t him, he was already quite impressive.”
When Tan Rou heard the word “botanist,” she beca cautious because Tuoray had also ntioned a foreign botanist to her, who, he said, had lived on this street in the past.
“Ming was a really nice person, very caring. I quickly fell in love with him,” Mada Hai Wei spoke with a face full of smiles.
“We were so happy back then, spending every day talking, looking at scenery, and then studying together in the library. He loved plants so much that whenever we had ti, we’d go to botanical gardens around the country to see those rare and exotic plants. So plants were poisonous, others were not.”
Hearing about “poison,” Tan Rou imdiately beca alert, “Which plants are poisonous?”
Mada Hai Wei glanced at her, “You don’t know which plants are poisonous?”
Tan Rou exclaid in surprise: “The poison in Samiyi was concocted by you?”
“Yes,” Mada Hai Wei admitted directly, “Those poisonous plants all co from your country; so of them were brought over by Ming back in the day. He preferred researching these poisonous plants to others; poisonous plants are beautiful, just like people.”
