”Thump thump thump.”
Deep in the pitch black night, strange footsteps could be heard. The sound of flat shoes on the wet floor could be heard.
In the silence of the night, Zeng Limei slowly walked into the teahouse while wearing a gray coat. In her hand was a cage covered by a white cloth. Her eyes coldly looked around and fixed on a monitor shining with red light at the corner of the wall.
Zeng Limei walked forward coldly and stared at the monitor with her eyes for two seconds. She took out a fruit knife from her pocket and cut off the wires connecting to the monitor. The monitor's red light instantly went out.
As she watched, the corner of her mouth curled up into a smile. She carried the white cage into the kitchen. When she was sure that no one was aware of it, she lifted the white cloth.
The kitchen was filled with fresh ingredients, as well as half-finished products.
Ceng Limei's eyes flashed with a cold light. The expression on her face became sinister, making people feel terrified.
A few black rats moved around, chirping uneasily. Zeng Limei walked in front of a bag of fresh red beans, opened the lid, and poured the few mice in the cage into the red beans.
The little mouse happily entered a large bag of red beans and began to nibble on the delicacy in front of it. The chirping sound coming from its mouth was very ear-piercing.
After finishing everything, Zeng Limei started to raise her phone and make a call, ”What you wanted me to do, I've already done. When can you cure my face?”
Chu Xiaoran, who had been woken up by the phone in the middle of the night, yawned and lazily asked, ”Didn't anyone find out?”
”No, it's midnight now. I've cut off the power cord on the monitor, and I've done everything according to your orders.” Zeng Limei said coldly.
A mouse crawled out of the bag and ran to Zeng Li Mei's feet in a panic to eat the red beans that fell at her feet.
Ceng Limei glanced at it and her gaze turned cold. She raised one of her feet and stomped down fiercely. Hearing the sound of the little mouse sobbing on the spot, Ceng Limei rubbed her feet against the smooth floor in disgust.
”When can you cure my face?” She didn't hear Chu Xiaoran's voice on the phone, so she asked coldly.
Chu Xiaoran sneered. After waking up from her sleep, her fingers rubbed the surface of her phone as she replied, ”When will it be able to cure your face? ”Heh, after you finish what I want, I will cure your face. But then …” Chu Xiaoran paused, as if she was waiting for Ceng Limei to speak up on the other end of the phone.
Chu Xiaoran's words triggered Zeng Li's anxious heart. Zeng Li quickly asked, ”But what? ”Don't be so secretive. If you have anything to say, just say it. I'm not in the mood to play games with you!”
Having been questioned, Chu Xiaoran lost her temper. She said coldly to Zeng Limei, ”You must recognize yourself now. I will tell you when everything is done.”
With that, Chu Xiaoran hung up the phone without waiting for Ceng Limei to continue interrogating her.
Zeng Limei listened to the busy tone of the phone and threw the phone angrily onto the ground. After that, she slightly calmed down and picked up the phone, but the lower right corner of the phone was broken and one of the phone cards was thrown out.
Zeng Limei hastily searched for a while, but she couldn't find it and wasn't in the mood to find another unimportant card.
