Chapter 192 An Unsolved Dilemma (1/2)

As Zhu Hongqin spoke, Seventh Aunt came out of a side door, followed by a maid. The maid was holding a projector in her hand. When they got in, they started operating with the projector.

Soon, a picture appeared on the opposite wall.

It was an ancient tomb, and Yin Molan was holding his Blade of Brotherhood to open the sarcophagus. Then he pushed the lid of the sarcophagus. Ning Tao was in the tomb, too. He looked quite excited.

When Ning Tao appeared in the picture, Zhu Hongqin said, “This person is in the hall now. Doctor Ning, won’t you say anything?”

All eyes were on Ning Tao.

“I thought he was really a miracle doctor. Unexpectedly, he is a thief, no, a grave robber!”

There was a buzz all around the banquet hall.

Zhao Wushuang was stunned. She couldn’t believe Ning Tao had done such a thing.

Li Xiaofeng kicked Ning Tao when he was down. “Miss Wushuang, have you seen it? This is Doctor Ning, the man you know. I think the person who is in the surveillance video is the real Doctor Ning. He is a thief who has been deceiving us all.”

Zhao Wushuang became distracted. She looked at Ning Tao, but Ning Tao still looked calm, with no emotion on his face.

In the video, Yin Molan picked up a piece of skull and flipped it back. There was faint green writing on it.

Yin Molan handed Ning Tao the skull fragment. His voice also played from the projector’s speaker. “You take it, as usual. I’ll find you the spiritual materials, and you refine the Ancestor-seeking Elixir for me.”

The picture on the wall suddenly stood still. That was when Ning Tao was smiling with the skull fragment in his hand.

This surveillance video was edited, because the rest of the content was cut out.

Ning Tao knew everything. Zhu Hongqin had plotted against him. She deliberately asked him to meet her, asked him for help, and gave him three days to “think it over.” Before he could decide, she had set a trap for him to jump into.

This was the trick of murdering a person with a borrowed knife and killing two birds with one stone!

She put a fake skull fragment in the sarcophagus. A pinhole camera hidden in the tomb captured that he and Yin Molan took the skull fragment away. Of course, he would think that the elixir prescription of the Ancestor-seeking Elixir was in his hands. She sent a message to Bai Sheng with this video — the elixir prescription of the Ancestor-seeking Elixir was no longer in her hands, and if Bai Sheng wanted it, he should go to Ning Tao for it!

Sure enough, a sneer slowly emerged in Bai Sheng’s lips. He didn’t say a word, but the sneer had already conveyed too much to Ning Tao.

“Doctor Ning, why don’t you talk? Everyone is waiting for you to explain. Do you think you’ll be all right if you keep quiet?” Zhu Hongqin questioned.

Ning Tao gave a wry smile. “What should I say? You have the video. You catch me with the goods. If you want me to admit on the spot that I broke into your house and stole the skull fragment, yes, I do.”

“Shame on you!” Xin Zhiyu snapped. “How can you confess your crime calmly after stealing our tomb? Do you realize that you are breaking the law? You’re a criminal! You are a shameless person!”

Ning Tao didn’t retort, much less quibble. He wouldn’t run away from what he did.

“Sorry, I’ve called the police,” Li Xiaofeng said. He had just made a call, and the phone was still in his hand.

Xue Bao’er quipped, “I’ve never seen such a shameless person like you. You pretend to be a miracle doctor to fool girls while acting as a grave robber to rob others’ ancestral tomb. I’m going to see how you deal with the police. By the way, could you have been as calm then as you are now?”

A green light flashed in Qing Zhui’s eyes, and she walked toward Xue Bao’er and Li Xiaofeng.

“Qing Zhui, come back,” Ning Tao shouted.

Qing Zhui paused, gives Xue Bao’er and Li Xiaofeng a hateful look, and then went back to Ning Tao.

However, Zhao Wushuang got to Ning Tao first, her eyes full of worry and doubt. “Brother Ning, tell me these are not true? Tell me.”

Ning Tao smiled. “How could that not be true? That’s me in the video. I did rob their tomb.”

Zhao Wushuang’s heart swelled with disappointment. Ning Tao had always been a positive and righteous man in her heart. He even dared to hit Huai Kebing for her without hesitation. She never expected that he turned out to be a grave robber.

Li Xiaofeng took the opportunity to say, “Miss Wushuang, I suggest you stay away from the grave robber. You are a public figure. Don’t get too close to a morally corrupted thief. Otherwise, you will lose your popularity and even be criticized.”

Zhao Wushuang’s lips moved. She didn’t say anything, but she was probably the only one who knew if she was worried about the thing Li Xiaofeng said.

Ning Tao, however, grinned as Li Xiaofeng and Xue Bao’er mocked him. “He’s right. Wushuang, you’d better stay away from me.”

Zhao Wushuang’s eyes were moist. Just when Qing Zhui proposed to her for Ning Tao, she thought her happiness came. Unexpectedly, before she had not had time to do a dream, things became so terrible. Her hero became a captured grave robber. Her heart was broken.
