Mu Shuoqian calmly picked up his mobile phone and made a call. About half an hour later, Yuan Yi drove over, holding a box in his hand as he got out of the car.
The box, made of wood, was tightly wrapped in a layer of black cloth, making it impossible to see what was inside from the outside.
Yuan Yi placed the box on a small wooden table and respectfully said to Mu Shuoqian, "Young Master Qian, I’ve brought the item."
After speaking, he discreetly glanced at the Qi Family mbers nearby, then silently moved to the side.
Gu Qili was also very curious about what was inside the box, especially since it was concealed with black cloth, giving it a mysterious look.
"Shuoqian, what does this an?" Qi Yexin chuckled nervously as he looked at the box. He really couldn’t figure out Mu Shuoqian’s intentions and wondered what he was up to.
However, as long as he was willing to help the Qi family through their difficulties and it ant that Luan Yi wouldn’t have to go to prison, he thought he could agree to any condition.
Just as Qi Yexin finished speaking, Mu Shuoqian said, "Actually, this thod is very simple. Old Master Qi, you’ve heard the story of an eye for an eye, right?"
Qi Yexin was completely confused: "..."
"I won’t hide it from you, inside this box is that cobra." His calm tone made everyone around him inhale sharply from shock.
Gu Qili even took a big step back to hide behind him, looking at the box with fear in her eyes — once bitten by a snake, one fears a well rope for ten years, and she indeed had developed a psychological trauma from being bitten.
Mu Shuoqian noticed her fear and grabbed her hand tightly.
"This, this snake is not dead yet, shouldn’t it be... handed over?" Qi Yexin stamred nervously.
"I borrowed it specially," Mu Shuoqian patted the box, and imdiately there ca thumping sounds, as if sothing was striking against the box.
Luan Yi, pale with fright, hid behind his mother, too scared to co out.
"Shuoqian, is your so-called compromise to let us handle this snake? Rest assured, I will find soone to mash it into paste to avenge Miss Gu for being bitten."
Mu Shuoqian shook his head, "Old Mr. Qi, you are mistaken. The compromise I’m talking about is to have your grandson put his hand in and let it bite him too; then we can call it even."
Qi Yexin’s complexion drastically changed, whether in shock or anger, his lips trembled.
"No, I don’t want to." Luan Yi scread in terror, tightly clutching his mother, shivering from fear.
Mu Shuoqian sneered, "You have the courage to release the snake but not the courage to be bitten by it?"
When Luan Yi originally placed the snake, she had consulted a Snake Tar but still feared the cold-blooded creature, struggling ntally for days before daring to act. Now, being asked to put her hand in and let the venomous snake bite her, she absolutely couldn’t do it.
"No, Grandpa, I will never put my hand in," Luan Yi scread sharply, her legs trembling, "It will bite to death, it’s a venomous snake."
Mu Shuoqian’s expression turned even colder, his sharp features emanating an icy storm: "Since you know a venomous snake can kill, why did you release it? Your heart is more vicious than the snake."
He gave Yuan Yi a glance, prompting Yuan Yi to quickly stride towards Luan Yi.
Terrified, Luan Yi clung even tighter to her mother, crying and shouting, "Mom, I won’t go, Dad, save , Grandpa, save , Aunt, Uncle, ah ah, I don’t want to be bitten by the snake, I’ll die, I’ll die."
Yuan Yi, being a skilled fighter, easily shook off the Qi family’s desperate attempts to stop him, dragging Luan Yi to the box.
Luan Yi, already crying her eyes out, tried desperately to break free from Yuan Yi by lying flat on the ground and clung tightly to a nearby table, but Yuan Yi didn’t care and dragged her several ters across the floor, with the Qi family struggling to pull her back, instantly turning the scene into chaos.
As Mu Shuoqian’s residence was not a villa, there were many people taking a stroll or cooling off in the neighborhood. So people ca to watch the commotion upon hearing it, and even the security guards were alerted, but knowing who Mu Shuoqian was, they did not dare to approach without his word and could only stand aside to block the spectating crowd.
Luan Yi’s body was almost torn in half, her skin scraping against the cent ground and burning painfully.
Her hair disheveled, face teary, and complexion pale, she scread and shouted, completely devoid of her usual arrogance and pride.
