116 Chapter 116 Coming Here
At this thought, he grabbed Miss Qiao’s arm and pulled her out. He pointed at the things on the table and said, “Tell me, what’s going on?”
“Father, be gentler. It hurts.” Miss Qiao pouted.
“Tell me, or I’ll strangle you to death, so you don’t embarra.s.s me.” After Elder Qiao finished speaking, he clutched her vital spot in anger.
At the same time, his eyes were red, his nostrils were enlarged, and his hair was almost standing up.
Seeing his fierce look, Miss Qiao was so scared that she didn’t dare move or speak.
Seeing this, Elder Qiao felt helpless and infuriated. He threw her onto the bed and said, “I thought you were still young and wanted to stay for two more years, but it seems like I can’t.
“From today on, you can embroider your dowry in your room. Father will help you find a good family to marry into as soon as possible.”
After he finished speaking, he flicked his sleeves and turned to leave.
When Miss Qiao heard this, she was stunned momentarily and immediately chased after him. “Father, don’t. I don’t want to get married.”
However, this time, Elder Qiao did not pay any attention to her. Instead, he walked faster.
When he came out, he looked at Qiao Yuan, who was kneeling on the ground. He said, “Watch carefully this time. If you make another mistake, I’ll take your life.”
“Yes, Master. I’ll definitely look after the young miss.” Qiao Yuan quickly nodded.
After Elder Qiao left, he immediately called two of his brothers to the small courtyard to put away any ladder, high stool, rope, and other things that could be used for climbing.
He also instructed Yu ‘er to keep her knives, scissors, and other things in case of emergencies.
While this was happening, Qiao Mu personally led more than ten skilled servants to Shanghe village in order to atone for his son’s sins.
However, what he didn’t see was that one of them quietly left the line after they went out. When the person was near the dock, he turned to find Manage Liu and told him about the matter.
“Doctor Gu’s house? Are you sure? Our people from the restaurant went there every day to pick up goods, but they didn’t see General Zhou. ” Manager Liu looked at the man in shock.
“I’m not sure, but it looks like it should be the deal.
“As for the fact that we didn’t see him, it could also be that General Zhou’s injuries are too severe, and he simply can’t go out. Or rather, he doesn’t dare go out. You have to make a decision quickly,” the man urged. “Otherwise, it’ll be really dangerous if they get there first. ”
Manager Liu finally nodded and went to a small courtyard not far away to call for more than ten people. The group of people set off at top speed after covering their faces.
Finally, they met near Xiahe village. After the two parties fought for a short while, Qiao Mu and his party were knocked down to the ground.
“Take them to the manor and lock them up,” Manager Liu said. “Interrogate them properly, especially since Qiao Mu knows a lot.”
“Yes.” One of them responded and then escorted Qiao Mu’s group to a manor outside the town. They detained them in the dungeon and started interrogating them.
On the other hand, Manager Liu brought two men with him and sneaked into Shanghe Village to find the Gu couple.
As soon as they got close to Er Zhuang, he started barking. This woke up the three people in the house.
When Zhou Ying woke up, she gave Gu Chengrui a bottle of pepper spray and said, “Rui, try not to open the door before asking clearly who it is.”
“I know. You should get up as well. If something goes wrong, hide Brother Zhou well.” After Gu Chengrui finished speaking, he quickly put on his clothes and coat before leaving.
At the same time, Zhou Ying also quickly got up and prepared a small bag of knockout powder. If their visitors came with bad intentions, she would knock Young Master Zhou unconscious and put him in her inters.p.a.ce.
After she was done with her preparations, she stood guard at the west wing door and waited for Gu Chengrui’s signal.
Young Master Zhou, who was in the west room, also slowly put on his clothes. If the people out there really came with ill intentions, he would escape to avoid bringing a fatal disaster to the couple.
