C72 (2/2)

”Little thing, can I take the silver now?” Xia Li looked at the silver, her heart thumping hard.

”Of course, they are yours now.” When Yang Xuechen had finished speaking, the manager had already placed the silver taels in a small bag that he was carrying on his back right in front of her, and respectfully brought it in front of Xia Li.

When Xia Li received the silver, her hands were trembling a little. In front of everyone, she temporarily suppressed her excitement and carried the bag on her back, as per the rules.

”Then Xia Li will take his leave.”

After Xia Li finished, he waited for Yang Xuechen to nod his head, and under the lead of the manager, they left the garden.

Yang Xuechen opened the box and looked at the five red round pills inside, a complex look flashed past his eyes, then he laughed sinisterly and closed the box once again.

After Xia Li left the escort company, while there was no one around, she hid herself for the time being. After confirming that no one was following them, she let out a sigh of relief, and found the heart-shaped pendant on her neck. Her right thumb pressed on the pendant for three seconds.

She found a portion of the traditional Chinese medicine ingredients needed to create the painkillers in the medicine cabinet, ground the herbs and mixed the medicines. She then placed the medicines into the instruments according to the different proportions.

Xia Li exited the space, following the route she remembered, she left the escort company. Just as she returned back to town, she found herself in trouble, with Ol 'Five lying in ambush by her side, leading their group towards her direction.

She was glad that she was able to keep the silver in her spatial space in time. She had no choice but to try her best to escape, as the brute who was closest to her would be the fastest one to be drugged with the coma medicine in her hands.

The fragrant scent of the coma drug spread in the air along with the wind, causing the brute to fall down one by one. Xia Li had long covered his nose and mouth, and ran out of the Fifth Brother's line of sight.

The entire time he was hiding in a corner. He had long noticed the fragrance in the air and the smell of each of his subordinates who had fallen down. He covered his nose and mouth with his handkerchief and not long after Xia Li ran out, he chased after him.

Just when Xia Li thought he would run out, Rich Man Yang who was lying in ambush outside pulled back the bow in his hands tightly. The stone that was sent flying directly smashed the bottle of unconscious medicine in Xia Li's hands, scattering it all over the ground.

In the instant that Xia Li was stunned, Ol 'Five who was chasing after her smashed his palm onto Xia Li's back. She lost consciousness and her body softly collapsed onto the ground.

As the bottle in Xia Li's hand shattered, the coma drug released a strong fragrance that spread further into the air along with the wind.

Rich Man Yang's body was also a little unsteady, the fifth brother was able to support him in time, but it was still unable to stop Rich Man Yang's unconscious body.

The fifth brother covered his nose and mouth, he looked at the people on the ground, feeling both scared and shocked, he never thought that Xia Li, this girl, would be so hard to deal with. He did not dare take the initiative to go up and grab Xia Li, as he was worried that she might have some kind of knockout medicine on her, and remained in such a stalemate for a while, he took two steps forward, squatted down, and patted Xia Li's face twice, but she did not react at all.

Ol 'Five carefully carried Xia Li's body all the way back to the bet house. He looked for the people in the game house and brought the unconscious people, including Rich Man Yang, back with him.

When Xia Li woke up, she found herself in a room that she didn't recognize. The entire room was decorated with a dazzling gold, her brain moved slightly, and when she thought about what happened before she fainted, she understood where she was right now.

Xia Li walked to the door of the room and pulled it open. Only then did he realise that the door was locked and she had been locked inside.

Xia Li did not cry, but stayed in her room quietly, thinking of a way to escape. However, it was clear that the Rich Man Yang did not have any plans to keep her locked up for a long time, and not long after, someone brought her out.

In the main hall on the second floor side, Rich Man Yang sat on the main seat, both sides of her were filled with wild men. She slightly grinned, it seemed like these people had long since woken up.

The Coma Potion that she had brewed could only last for two hours, allowing her to escape within a short period of time. If she was caught, then things would not be good, like now.

The fifth brother continued to pressure Xia Li, and brought her to a chair to sit down. He personally poured a cup of tea for Xia Li and passed it over to her.

”I'm not thirsty, thank you.” Xia Li said as he took the teacup offered to him by the fifth brother and placed it on a table.

”What? Are you afraid Ol 'Five will poison you?” The Rich Man Yang sat on the seat of honor, and stared at Xia Li as he asked.

”Since you're willing to invite me to sit here and not hurt me, then you naturally won't poison this tea.” Xia Li replied politely.

Xia Li, I won't keep you in suspense anymore. To tell you the truth, my men have already investigated everything, and within Ding Liang's hospital, the pain-relieving pills he sold were all concocted by you. This time, I spent a lot of effort to invite you here, just to discuss a matter with you.

Rich Man Yang stood up, her eyes full of scheming. With a smile on her lips, she walked towards Xia Li.

”Give me the formula for this pain-relieving drug, and we will pay off the debt your father owes me.”
