C72 The Love of Desperate



C72 The Love of Desperate

0Fei Er was startled, but she quickly came back to her senses and said, "Eighth concubine, if I remember correctly, you should be confined by the old master now, right? What are you trying to do? "    

    

Because she was by First Wife's side, Fei Er usually only treated Tan Cui Huan as someone who had a hard time keeping an eye on her. Seeing her like this, Tan Cui Huan was actually relieved and said, "I'm just going to the latrine, okay?"    

    

Fei Er harrumphed and said that lazybones had urinated too much before she continued walking in her direction.    

    

Tan Cui's eyes immediately looked towards the man inside. The man understood and immediately followed.    

    

Fei Er knew that the man was following her. Judging from his tall body, if she let him think that she had heard their secret, he would definitely kill her!    

    

Thinking of this, Fei Er's hands started to tremble. However, she tried her best to hold on as she bumped into someone.    

    

"Aiyo, Fei Er, so you're here. First Wife is looking for you!"    

    

Fei Er was so moved that tears were about to fall from her eyes. "I just went to my room to put something down. Why is Madame looking for me?"    

    

Fei Er looked behind her as she spoke. When she saw that the man had already disappeared, she heaved a sigh of relief.    

    

Afterwards, she immediately went to find First Wife.    

    

Hearing Fei Er's words, First Wife's expression immediately changed. "Is what you said true?"    

    

"Absolutely!" Fei Er said, "I heard it all with my own ears. Madam, this eighth concubine's heart is so vicious. She can be so heartless to an old lover. If she were to continue staying in our mansion …"    

    

Even if Fei Er didn't say anything, First Wife naturally knew. She rolled her eyes and said, "How about this, tell someone to call Lee Wanning over."    

    

Fei Er immediately responded.    

    

At that time, Lee Wanning was taking a nap, and after the Liu Manor people couldn't find her in the shop, they went straight to the inn.    

    

"Boss Li, our Madam is looking for you."    

    

Lee Wanning was stunned for a moment. She looked at the fierce sun outside and asked, "What's the matter?"    

    

"Boss Li will know once he goes."    

    

Lee Wanning could only follow her. When she passed by her shop, she saw Hua Ying and Qiao'er there, working on their nails.    

    

She didn't think too much and could only head in the direction of the Liu residence.    

    

Even though Lee Wanning had already made this deduction, she was still shocked when she heard First Wife's words.    

    

First Wife looked at her and said, "This time, it's really our Liu Manor's fault. I never thought that this Tan Family's girl would be such a cruel and merciless person!"    

    

Lee Wanning glanced at her and immediately continued, "This is what Tan Cui Huan did wrong. It has nothing to do with your Liu family."    

    

What First Wife wanted was exactly what Lee Wanning wanted to say.    

    

Lee Wanning glanced at Fei Er. Even though she had given her so many benefits, she was still the first to think of Lady Liu when she heard the news. Actually, it wasn't strange, after all, she had been with him for over a dozen years, so it was fortunate that Lady Liu chose to tell her.    

    

Lee Wanning thought for a while and slowly said, "Then, Madam, what do you want to do?"    

    

First Wife didn't expect Lee Wanning to ask the opposite of her question. After thinking for a long time, she slowly said, "This kind of woman definitely can't stay in our mansion."    

    

Lee Wanning was also waiting for First Wife's words.    

    

She lightly smiled and said, "Madam, what do you want to do?"    

    

"As long as you don't involve our Liu Residence, feel free to speak your mind if there's anything you need help with."    

    

Hearing First Wife's words, Lee Wanning immediately knelt down and said, "Thank you Madam!"    

    

First Wife nodded. "Get up. What do you want to do?"    

    

Lee Wanning rolled her eyes and said, "How about luring the snake out of its hole?"    

    

Not long after Lee Wanning returned to the store, Zhou Qu came over. She pulled Zhou Qu and said, "I have something to discuss with you."    

    

After listening to Lee Wanning's words, Zhou Qu frowned and said, "Isn't this too risky?"    

    

Lee Wanning shook her head and said, "It's alright. Anyway, I believe you."    

    

Zhou Qu looked at her. Although their people had been guarding here recently, it could be said that they got nothing. Now that he heard Lee Wanning's words, he could only nod.    

    

Lee Wanning immediately smiled and kissed him on the cheek. "Then do as I say!"    

    

Nightfall soon arrived. Lee Wanning told Hua Ying and Qiao'er to go back first while she made arrangements in the shop.    

    

The people from the County Magistrate's Courtyard had already retreated. Since there was no other evidence, the case on the side of the family seemed to have been settled just like that.    

    

This news was purposely released by Lee Wanning today, and from Fei Er's attitude back then, it was obvious that Tan Cui Huan must have been waiting anxiously. Now that she saw such a good opportunity, she would definitely send someone over to take action.    

    

This time, she had to let Tan Cui Huan know, what it felt like to deserve a sin!    

    

The place was quiet. Lee Wanning looked inside the store slowly. The door was ajar. She seemed to be counting something inside, but her eyes were always looking out the window.    

    

A black shadow flashed past.    

    

Lee Wanning's heart skipped a beat and she immediately walked up. As she was looking at the door, she saw that the person was dressed in black and was holding a torch.    

    

Zhou Qu was hiding nearby. When he saw Ye Zichen's reaction, he immediately rushed over, "Stop!"    

    

Hearing the sound, that person immediately turned around, but he saw Zhou Qu and so many people rush up. He secretly felt that it was not good, before he turned around to leave, he didn't forget to throw down the torch in his hand.    

    

At that time, Lee Wanning was preparing to rush out from the door, but the torch had firmly blocked her way.    

    

That person had kung fu on him and was about to leave after performing Qing Gong. However, Zhou Qu acted decisively. With a light tap of his toes, his entire body was dragged down.    

    

Zhou Qu cut his hand behind him. The crisp sound of bones breaking could be heard. However, Zhou Qu didn't show any mercy. He used the hemp rope on his hand and tied him up like a wild boar.    

    

"Big Brother Zhou!" It's on fire! "    

    

Hearing this voice, Zhou Qu raised his head and saw that the shop in front of him was already on fire. Zhou Qu's expression immediately changed, "Aa Ning!"    

    

Lee Wanning was still inside the store. The light from the fire lit up the wooden frame of the house, making it so that she couldn't even open her eyes. However, there wasn't a drop of water in the shop, and Lee Wanning was forced further and further away.    

    

Zhou Qu wanted to rush in, but was stopped by a person beside him, "Big Brother Zhou, the fire is so big. If you go in now, you'll definitely die!"    

    

Zhou Qu looked at Lee Wanning inside and felt as if his heart was on fire. He quickly pulled away the person beside him and rushed in.    

    

The others quickly put out the fire, and those who were alarmed also came out to help. However, that person added something to the torch and the flame instantly soared up, lighting up half the sky.    

    

After Zhou Qu rushed in, his eyes constantly searched the inside of the store, "Aa Ning! "Aa Ning!"    

    

Hearing the sound, Lee Wanning finally got up from behind the counter and waved at Zhou Qu, "I'm here!"    

    

Zhou Qu immediately rushed over and hugged her, "I'll take you out!"    

    

Lee Wanning was already suffocated from the smoke. When Zhou Qu hugged her, her entire body went limp.    

    

Zhou Qu carried her, but the beam above his head fell down. Before it hit Lee Wanning, Zhou Qu blocked it with his own body.    

    

It set his back on fire, causing Zhou Qu to frown. However, he knew he couldn't hesitate at this moment, because if he hesitated any longer, the fire would only grow bigger.    

    

Fortunately, the people outside continued to help, and the fire finally started to die down. Zhou Qu just carried Lee Wanning and rushed out.    

    

There was still a ball of fire on his body and his face was blackened, but even so, he still tightly hugged the woman in his embrace.    

    

That night, the news had spread through the streets and alleys.    

    

Many women envied Lee Wanning, but they didn't know that when Lee Wanning saw Zhou Qu like that, she would rather he didn't come to her rescue.    

    

A large portion of the skin on his back had been burned off. Even though he was very strong and patient, he still humphed lightly when the doctor applied medicine on him.    

    

There was a layer of cold sweat on his forehead. Lee Wanning's hand was tightly clenched in his.    

    

In the latter part of the night, he developed a fever.    

    

Lee Wanning went to get a doctor to come over, but in the middle of the night, none of the doctors were willing to come out. Lee Wanning could only go to First Wife.    

    

First Wife immediately called her doctor over. After Zhou Qu checked his pulse, the doctor said, "His injury is a little severe. If you guys can't cure the fever by tomorrow morning, you should prepare for the aftermath!"    

    

Lee Wanning didn't believe him.    

    

Obviously, Zhou Qu had been such a good living person in front of her yesterday. How could he have become someone who needed to be prepared for future events in one day and one night?    

    

Lee Wanning kept shaking her head, "Please save him. I can give you anything you want. I'm begging you!"    

    

Lee Wanning wanted to kneel down for the doctor. She was filled with regret. Why did she have to be the bait in the shop? Wouldn't it be fine to just leave the shop there?    

    

Even if they couldn't catch the murderer, it wouldn't be a big deal, right?    

    

At that time, Lee Wanning finally realized that the most important thing to her in this world wasn't money or anything else, but Zhou Qu.
