Chapter 915: A Lure (2)
Ye Chen and Zheng En’s residence.
At this moment, the two of them were sitting facing each other in the room.
“How much more herbs do you need to cure the Wen family?” Ye Chen asked curiously.
“A lot more! There are too many people in the Wen family who have been poisoned,” Zheng En said calmly.
“Sigh! How pitiful!” Ye Chen said with apparent sympathy.
“That’s right! Poor thing!” Zheng En’s face was filled with sympathy, but he was actually overjoyed in his heart. Hehe, he had secretly taken a lot of the Wen family’s herbs!
“Commander Ye, when are we leaving? If we treat everyone in the Wen family, it will be even harder to save Miss,” Zheng En whispered again.
“It won’t be easy to bring Xue’er out even if we can’t cure her! Don’t forget that that person is still here!” Ye Chen said gloomily. The person he was referring to was naturally the person who had captured Xue’er. Alas! With his current strength, he was unable to take her away from that person.
“Then what should we do? We can’t stay in the Wen family forever, right?” Zheng En was a little worried when he thought of that powerful man.
“When the time comes, we’ll find an opportunity,” Ye Chen said. Cher wasn’t far away now, so he could afford to wait.
“Yes, that’s the only way. I wonder how Feng Da and the others are doing now?” Zheng En said worriedly.
“They’re fine, don’t worry,” Ye Chen said with a chuckle. Those guys were all smart!
“Yes.” Zheng En nodded.
Suddenly the head butler’s voice sounded in their ears.
“Excellency Ersha,” the Head butler called, and knocked on the door.
“Head Butler, are you here to deliver herbs to me?” Zheng En opened the door and said happily. Hehe! He had been waiting for a few days.
“Uh! Excellency Ersha, I’m really sorry. I still have to wait a few days. The herbs I bought from outside were all robbed by the Fan family,” the butler said angrily. Even though the Wen family and the Fan family’s juniors often quarreled, it had always been a small conflict. The higher-ups of the two families rarely really fell out. Therefore, even though he was angry, he could not do anything to the Fan family.
“Uh! How did this happen?” Zheng En looked puzzled.
“This… The Fan family has always liked to cause trouble for our Wen family, so the juniors of the two families often argue, and it’s the same this time.” The head butler explained simply. He naturally couldn’t tell outsiders about the Wen family’s secret.
“I understand, I understand. Moreover, I’m not in a hurry. However, your Wen family can’t afford to delay it! I took a look yesterday. The poison seems to be getting deeper and deeper. If this continues, they won’t need to use the antidote anymore.” Zheng En sighed.
“Uh! Excellency Ersha, what do you mean?” The Head Butler was stunned and very puzzled.
“Head Butler, don’t you understand?” Zheng En said helplessly.
“Please enlighten me,” the Head Butler said foolishly. He really didn’t understand!
“If we delay too long, those people won’t need to be treated anymore because they’re already dead,” Zheng En explained.
“Uh! Can this poison really kill people?” The Head Butler was shocked and said in disbelief. Other than being in pain when the poison acted up, the people who were poisoned usually did not feel much discomfort. How could someone die? He could not believe it.
“I wouldn’t have, but you guys dragged it out too long,” Zheng En said in fear.
“How… how long do they have to live?” the Head butler asked, his face pale.
“It’s hard to say. In short, the sooner you take the antidote, the better. Therefore, Head Butler, you have to work hard to buy herbs! Of course, if the Wen family doesn’t want to save them, you can tell me in advance and pay me the remuneration so that I can leave immediately,” Zheng En said.
“Excellency Ersha, I’ll try my best to purchase herbs. Don’t worry, I’ll take my leave first.” After hearing this news, the butler didn’t dare to delay for a moment and hurriedly left.
After the Head Butler left, Ye Chen stared at Zheng En with his starry eyes, but he didn’t say anything.
“Uh! I was just scaring him,” Zheng said softly, then lowered his head, not daring to look Ye Chen in the eye.
“Hehe!” Ye Chen chuckled. Then he stood up and said, “I’ll take a walk outside.”
“Okay.” Zheng En heaved a sigh of relief. However, he did not believe that this cunning Commander Ye would just go out for a walk. He probably went to see his Miss.
Just as Zheng En had guessed, Ye Chen had indeed gone to see Xue’er. Hehe! He and Xue’er didn’t dare to see each other every day. It was fine to meet occasionally and chat for a while. After all, the two of them were neighbors now!
After Ye Chen arrived at the courtyard where Xue’er lived, he saw Xue’er lying on a recliner and basking in the sun. He sat down on the stone bench beside Xue’er.
“Elder Brother Dasha, you’re here,” Leng Ruoxue said calmly, but her beautiful eyes were like burning flames, releasing a passion that only Ye Chen could understand.
“Well, Little Sister Xue’er stays in the courtyard every day. Aren’t you tired of it?” Ye Chen asked deliberately.
“I can’t help it! I’m considered a prisoner of the Wen family, how would I dare to wander around the Wen family casually! The last time I went out, something happened to the Wen family, and they even blamed it on me. Sigh!” Leng Ruoxue said bitterly, her beautiful eyes faintly sparkling.
“Did someone malign Little Sister Xue’er? That person is really too evil. Even if they can’t find the culprit, they can’t just frame anyone!” Ye Chen said angrily.
“Sigh! There’s no choice! He’s too strong, so of course he’ll do whatever he says. How can a weak group like me dare to argue with others!” Leng Ruoxue said indifferently.
“Little girl, are you blaming me?” Their conversation finally attracted a familiar voice.
Ye Chen and Leng Ruoxue smiled at each other when they heard this voice.
Then, Leng Ruoxue said in an extremely resentful tone, “How would I dare!”
“Don’t dare? Hmph! Aren’t you talking bad about me to this ugly freak now?” The man said angrily. In fact, he had been observing Leng Ruoxue almost every day for a while recently, so he naturally knew that she had some contact with this ugly freak. After hearing the two of them seem to be talking about him today, he was a little uneasy. He, who had not spoken for many days, finally couldn’t take it anymore and spoke.
