The female general of the last days returned to ancient times to raise a young prostitute
Chapter 146: Not enough success, more than enough failure
The head of the Wan family sat in his spacious and luxurious study, his face so gloomy that it looked as if water could drip out. He had just received news that the Xiangyun Restaurant had successfully cleared all suspicion!
This result made him so furious that his whole body was shaking with anger. He swung his hands violently and swept the exquisite tea set on the table to the ground.
There was a crisp "crackling" sound, and several sets of valuable teacups instantly turned into pieces and scattered on the ground.
At the same time, Madam Wan was chatting with several noble ladies in a side hall.
When she heard the servant coming to report this, she was so shocked that her eyes widened, and then her eyebrows raised and her face was full of anger.
She slammed the table, stood up, and cursed with gritted teeth, "This Zhou Yu is a complete loser! He used to take advantage of our Wan family a lot, and every New Year and other festivals we would send him large amounts of silver and valuable gifts. But now? He can't even handle such a small matter! He can't even handle a little girl. He's truly incapable of success and only good at causing trouble!"
Mrs. Wan became more and more angry the more she thought about it, and the expression on her face became a little distorted because of anger.
The corners of her mouth twitched slightly, and her originally delicate and beautiful face now looked particularly hideous and terrifying.
There was a raging fire burning in those beautiful eyes, as if they wanted to burn Zhou Yu, who had disappointed her so much, into ashes.
“And the Mo family, they are just a group of ordinary people with no power or influence, yet they dare to offend our Wan family so boldly!
"I really don't know what the Wan family is up to. Humph! I'm going to teach them a lesson this time, so they know what a miserable fate awaits them if they provoke our Wan family!" Madam Wan said angrily, already plotting revenge on the Mo family.
At this moment, Wan Liangjin's fever had finally subsided, but he was still frail. However, upon learning that Xiangyun Restaurant was safe, he was furious and wanted to tear the man's flesh apart. This ungrateful woman had actually knocked him unconscious and left him on the ground all night. He had never suffered such a loss before. It was a profound humiliation. He didn't hide his hatred for the Mo family at all. After all, he had always gotten what he wanted. This woman had humiliated him so much, and he was determined to make them suffer. His raging anger seemed to consume the entire world.
Especially that ignorant, insincere woman, who made him gnash with rage. The thought of her daring to disobey him made Wan Liang Jin want to tear her into pieces immediately. However, that would be too easy for her! He wanted to punish this despicable woman even more severely—sell her to the dirtiest and most despicable brothel, let her suffer humiliation and torture, a life worse than death! Only in this way could he even slightly appease the hatred in his heart.
Wasn't she aloof and looked down on him? He wanted her to kneel at his feet and beg for mercy.
The next day, Twelve arranged for these secret guards to live in a secluded house.
The assassin naturally knew what kind of place was best for hiding, so no one would find the place she chose.
As soon as Li Lingye got the glass recipe, he asked his trusted men to deliver it to Kyoto as quickly as possible.
The prince consort's people had no idea that Li Lingye had private correspondence with the emperor.
Li Lingye has always used carrier pigeons to deliver messages, but this time he did not use carrier pigeons because he was worried. After all, the prescription this time was of vital importance.
A murder occurred in the restaurant, and the news spread to every street and alley in the city, so the business plummeted. There was no one at the door. Regardless of whether there were customers or not, Eleven still asked people to keep the door open.
The restaurant only needs one or two people to be on duty, and the others are recovering from their injuries.
Mo Rao spent all day in the laboratory studying penicillin.
When Mr. Mo saw Li Lingye, he originally planned to give him a good scolding.
But seeing that the man was injured, I couldn't bear to blame him, so the matter passed. After several days of recuperation, the injury was finally almost healed.
"Master!" Li Si fell to his knees with a thud and said in a trembling voice: "I'm afraid Li Zhong and Li Qi... are really not going to make it!" He raised his head, his eyes filled with unspeakable sadness and despair.
For some time, the condition of Li Zhong and Li Qi had been a source of deep worry. They had persistent fevers, and their bodies were utterly tormented by pain. He had summoned countless doctors to try to cure them. However, each one, after examining them, shook their heads and sighed helplessly, expressing their helplessness.
Their injuries were so severe that they had now festered over large areas, emitting a foul stench. Those horrific wounds were like the maws of a demon, ruthlessly devouring their last breath. No matter what medicine or method they used, it seemed impossible to halt the deterioration of their condition.
Li Si watched helplessly as all this unfolded, his heart filled with pain and self-blame. He hated himself for being incompetent and unable to find a better way to save them; as secret guards, they should have devoted themselves to their master until their death.
But it is better to kill your companion with a knife and end it all than to watch him die in pain. At least it won’t be so painful.
Li Lingye felt a little uncomfortable when he thought that these two people were willing to use their bodies to block the knife in order to save him.
Do they have any family members? Li Lingye asked.
In reply to the master, their family members are no longer around.
After hearing this, he no longer had any chance to make it up to them.
All that was left were heavy and helpless sighs echoing in the air for a long time.
They had all suffered such severe injuries in order to protect him. Every wound was like a deep mark engraved on Li Lingye's heart, causing him endless pain.
Yet, deep within Li Lingye's heart, despite the pain surging like a tidal wave, he wasn't completely unable to bear this cruel reality. After all, as a secret guard, he was destined from the outset to go through fire and water for his master, regardless of any consequences. This seemed to have become an innate mission and responsibility, deeply ingrained in his soul.
Perhaps this was their destined destination, Li Lingye thought silently, with an indescribable complex emotion welling up in his heart.
He was proud and admired these loyal and brave secret guards, but also felt extremely sorry and sad about the fate they faced. But no matter what, he knew he was powerless to change it.
Finally, Li Lingye could only lament in his heart! May God have mercy on them and allow them to no longer be slaves in the next life, and live a free and carefree life. Even if it is just an ordinary day, as long as they are safe and happy, it is enough...
Mo Rao often gets up early and goes to bed late these days, and Li Lingye doesn't know what she is busy with.
Especially in the past two days, that woman has disappeared without a trace!
This truly filled Li Lingye with suspicion and confusion. After all, this woman had finally settled down for a few days, and how could she suddenly start stirring up trouble again, reverting to her old ways? Could it be that because he'd been injured recently and physically unable to satisfy her, she'd been unable to bear the loneliness and gone off to seek out other gigolos for pleasure?
The more Li Lingye pondered this, the more certain he became of this suspicion. Gradually, his mind became completely absorbed in his own fantasies, constantly replaying images of the woman cuddling intimately with the strange man, while the pretty boy, who had appeared out of nowhere, smirked and challenged him. At this thought, Li Lingye felt a surge of nameless rage rising to his head, his heart awash with resentment, and in the end, he felt almost succumbing to his own fantasies.
"Damn woman!" He cursed with gritted teeth. If she really dared to cheat on him with another man, once he found out, he would ruthlessly tear the adulterer into pieces to vent his hatred!
The misunderstood Mo Rao was now concentrating on the laboratory. She had not slept for two days and two nights. When she knew that the two secret guards had repeated high fevers, she accelerated the progress of the experiment and told the secret guards the physical cooling methods, just hoping to buy more time. After all, if the inflammation in the body was not subsided, the fever would recur.
