The mobile phone in Jia Zizai's hand fell to the ground. His face was pale and frightening. He was stunned. Hu Mei, who was next to him, was also stunned. It was as if she had been struck by lightning. They had been very close, so she could hear the conversation on the phone.
"It's really her!" Her mind was buzzing and blank. The difficulties she had encountered before could not be compared to the sentence she had just heard.
"Hello, is there anything else?" Zhong Liuchuan's voice came from the phone.
"No, nothing." Jia Zizai, who had recovered from the shock, hurriedly picked up the mobile phone that had fallen to the ground.
The two of them looked at each other, then chose to turn around and go home. What lunch? Let's figure out how to deal with this matter first.
"How could this be?" Hu Mei had said this sentence more than a dozen times.
"Why don't we just leave here?" Jia Zizai thought for a long time.
"You see, now that Su Xiaoxue has recovered, and there is no problem," Zhong Liuchuan said. "She gets along so well with Mr. Wang. Let's pretend that this matter never happened, leave here, and find another place to live. How about that?"
"Didn't you want to be Mr. Wang's disciple?" Hu Mei asked.
"That was just a casual remark," Jia Zizai said with a smile. "You didn't take it seriously, did you?" In his eyes, nothing was more important than the life they had now. He could not completely disrupt the life they had fought so hard for because of this matter.
"Leave?" Hu Mei repeated the word.
"How about I confess to Mr. Wang?"
"What? Are you stupid?"
"After all, she is not dead, and I am just an accomplice in this matter," Zhong Liuchuan said. "Mr. Wang has done us a favor. If we hide this matter from him, I …"
"No, let me think about it."
The two of them sat facing each other in the room for an entire afternoon.
"Where is the poison master now?" Jia Zizai asked.
"I don't know. He hasn't come to the company for more than a year. I'm afraid no one knows where he is except for the chairman. Maybe he's dead?"
"No. Ask your people to find the whereabouts of the Poison Master. We'll find a way to catch the Poison Master and let Sir deal with him," Jia Zizai said. This was the solution he came up with after thinking about it for the whole afternoon.
"That poison must be very painful, right?"
"It's extremely painful. After being poisoned, one's internal organs will feel as if they're on fire. Moreover, there will be poisonous boils on one's body that will fester all over. I've seen it with my own eyes. It's too horrible to look at," said Hu Mei.
"Tsk, should I talk to Sir about this?" After thinking about it, they still felt that they should explain this matter clearly to Wang Yao. If it was in the past, they would definitely not say anything and would only choose to leave. Now, it was different.
After the company collapsed, they were free and their mentality had changed.
"I'll go with you."
"What's the matter? Why are you being so mysterious?" Wang Yao saw that the two of them had something important to discuss with him, so he directly took them to the clinic. Even Su Xiaoxue did not follow.
"Sir, there's something I'd like to ask. Did Miss Su suffer from a serious illness three years ago?" Hu Mei asked.
"Well, how do you know about this?" Wang Yao was very surprised.
"Was she poisoned?"
"Yes, she was indeed poisoned!" Wang Yao's expression had changed. Only her family knew that Su Xiaoxue had been seriously ill. As for what kind of illness she had, even her family was not very clear about it. Yet, Hu Mei had actually said it out loud, which was surprising.
"What else do you know?"
"I know who poisoned her," Hu Mei said.
"Who is it?" Wang Yao's face changed. His momentum instantly changed.
He now really liked Su Xiaoxue and treated her as his wife. She was the person who would accompany him for the rest of his life. He also remembered the suffering she had suffered. The pain of her internal organs being burned and her body festering was worse than death. At that time, no one knew why she was poisoned. They could only be angry and worried for nothing. Now, they suddenly knew the news of the murderer. If the murderer stood in front of Wang Yao at this moment, he would probably kill him directly.
As soon as Wang Yao's momentum changed, Hu Mei and Jia Zizai's faces also changed. Just a moment ago, they felt a huge pressure coming on, like a landslide. They were facing a person with brilliant medical skills and a master of kung fu.
"A person called Poison Master," Hu Mei said.
"I was also involved in this matter." She still said it.
"You were also involved?"
"I was ordered to cooperate," Hu Mei said. "At that time, in order to deal with several masters in the south, Miss Su was accidentally injured."
"Accidentally injured? Is there an antidote for this poison?"
"No."
"Where is the poison master now?" Wang Yao's tone was very cold. After suddenly hearing this matter, he was very angry in his heart.
"We don't know," Hu Mei said. "We have already asked someone to investigate."
"Sir, this mistake was discovered by me," Hu Mei said. "I am willing to bear any consequences."
"How did you recognize her?"
"I have seen her appearance and heard the last two words of her name."
"She once suffered a lot of pain. Her life was worse than death. It was not just a day, but more than two years." Wang Yao's tone was very calm and cold.
"I'm sorry."
"This is not a matter of just being sorry," Wang Yao said. "Find Poison Master."
"Yes, Sir."
When the two of them came out of the clinic, their backs were wet.
"I didn't expect Sir to be so terrible when he is angry!" Jia Zizai sighed. Over the years, he had seen many masters and cold-blooded killers, but he had never seen such a majestic momentum from anyone.
"Now we have to find Poison Master as soon as possible."
In fact, they didn't have to be like this. They could have just left. Although they couldn't beat Wang Yao, they could have stayed far away. Moreover, there were only two of them. They didn't have any family members or burdens. This was not their hometown, but Wang Yao was different. This was his hometown.
They had really changed. They wanted to become normal people. They wanted to pick up the things they had thrown away and hidden in the depths of their hearts. Therefore, they cared so much about this matter.
Wang Yao stayed alone in the clinic, thinking about this matter. He was considering whether to tell Xiaoxue, how to tell her, and how to deal with Hu Mei and Jia Zizai. He was not a Bodhisattva. He had always been ruthless to those who dared to hurt his family, even if they were just accomplices.
"Sir?" Su Xiaoxue's voice came from outside. She saw that Wang Yao had not returned, so she went directly to the clinic to look for him.
"I'm in the room," Wang Yao whispered.
"Are you alone? What are you doing?"
"I'm thinking about something." Wang Yao sighed softly.
"What's the matter? Why are you sighing?"
"It's nothing. Let's go home." Wang Yao got up and gently hugged Su Xiaoxue in his arms.
From now on, I won't let you get hurt again!
"Sir, you seem to have something on your mind."
"Indeed, I just found out who poisoned you." After being silent for a while, Wang Yao decided to tell Su Xiaoxue about it.
"Who is it?" Su Xiaoxue stopped. She had been in pain for more than two years. That was the most painful memory.
"A person called Poison Master and Hu Mei."
"Her?"
"Accidental injury," Wang Yao said. "But she can't get away with it."
"Actually, it's not entirely a bad thing that I was poisoned," Su Xiaoxue said. "At least I know you, Sir."
"You really know how to comfort people. If it weren't for the poison, you wouldn't have suffered for two years. You would still be a happy princess and live a different life."
"Yes, maybe I would have known another person," Su Xiaoxue said. "Without you, life would be different. In short, the past is the past. I think the most important thing now is to grasp the future. Sir, you don't need to care too much about this matter. I don't think Hu Mei is really a bad person."
