Some people naturally dared not stay any longer. They didn't even dare to say a polite word, and they all kept their mouths shut and left quickly.

Shen Qingqing watched as everyone else left, then slightly pursed her lips, seemingly very dissatisfied with the outcome.

Fortunately, Murong Quan, Le Yizhou, and several other members of wealthy and powerful families were still there.

These people are enough!

Shen Qingqing was already prepared to see Su Wusi and Lin Yifan make fools of themselves.

Lu Chuanbai had been watching Shen Qingqing's expression closely. He didn't even bother to knock anymore and urgently ordered the bodyguard, "Open the door!"

"Yes!" Without saying a word, the bodyguard kicked the door.

With a loud bang, the sturdy door was kicked open by the bodyguard.

"Holy crap! What happened? Was it an earthquake?!" Qiao Zihao shouted as he rushed out of the building.

He saw a large crowd gathered at the entrance, and his expression instantly froze.

He had many notes stuck to his face, and with his expression, he looked like a fool no matter how you looked at him.

After realizing what was happening, Qiao Zihao said with difficulty, word by word, "Playing cards... is it illegal? Why are so many people coming to arrest me?"

After he finished speaking, he tore the note off his face: "We just stuck a small note on our face, we didn't gamble, so we don't need to make such a big fuss, do we?"

When Shen Qingqing saw that the person who came out was Qiao Zihao, her expression immediately changed.

She took a few steps forward in a panic, asking repeatedly, "What are you doing here? Where's Sisi? Where's Yifan? Where are they?!"

"I am here."

Su Wusi looked at Shen Qingqing with a complicated expression and asked, "Sister Qingqing, is it really you?"

So much had happened in those short ten minutes that Shen Qingqing no longer had the composure to answer, so she instinctively replied, "It wasn't me! It wasn't!"

However, Su Wusi did not ask any specific questions, and Shen Qingqing hurriedly offered her explanation.

This is tantamount to a tacit admission.

Shen Qingqing quickly realized she had let something slip and hurriedly racked her brains to explain, "Qiao Zihao and Shi Xiaxia are in cahoots! When I saw him here, I thought something had happened to you..."

"I believe in Qingqing!"

Lin Yifan stepped out from behind, his expression resolute: "Someone is definitely framing Qingqing!"

After he finished speaking, he glanced at Shi Xiaxia with a dark look in his eyes. The meaning behind that glance was self-evident.

Shi Xiaxia shrugged and said indifferently, "I can't control what Young Master Lin thinks. But I will relay what you said to President Lin verbatim."

Lin Yifan's expression froze. He glared fiercely at Shi Xiaxia and dared not speak again.

Lu Chuanbai looked at Su Wusi and Lin Yifan again, and at the question Su Wusi had asked Shen Qingqing earlier. They had obviously encountered something.

However, Shi Xiaxia had anticipated this and asked Qiao Zihao to help solve it.

"No thoughts!"

Lu Chuanbai looked at Su Wusi and said sternly, "Come with me!"

“Okay…” Su Wusi obediently lowered her head, understanding that Lu Chuanbai already knew everything she had done.

"Cough cough,"

Shi Xiaxia coughed lightly: "I also have something to say to President Lu."

She gestured with her hand, implying, "I wonder if it's convenient for you, Mr. Lu?"

Lu Chuanbai understood Shi Xiaxia's implication and knew that she was talking about the talisman, so he nodded.

Seeing that Lu Chuanbai had agreed, Qiao Zihao, still worried about leaving Shi Xiaxia alone with him, immediately said, "I also have something to say to President Lu!"

Lu Chuanbai couldn't help but pinch his temple: "Let's do it together."

Then, the four of them went to the room where Lu Chuanbai had been.

After entering the room, Shi Xiaxia reached out her hand to Lu Chuanbai.

Lu Chuanbai returned the talisman he was holding to Shi Xiaxia, and after the talisman left his body, the familiar heat and dizziness surged back into his body.

Lu Chuanbai forced himself to remain calm and asked expressionlessly, "The medicinal properties can be suppressed by talismans? This is the first time I've heard of such a thing."

"Uncle, you've been poisoned too?!" Su Wusi asked in shock.

Lu Chuanbai glanced at her but ignored her.

"No, no, no, what you've been given isn't an aphrodisiac, it's a kind of poison."

Shi Xiaxia took back the talisman and explained, "If it really is an aphrodisiac, you can only go to a doctor or solve it yourselves."

After she finished speaking, she stopped talking nonsense and took out another talisman, squeezing a drop of blood onto it.

Then, holding the talisman between his hands, he swept it across Lu Chuanbai's body. As he swept it across Lu Chuanbai's chest, the talisman suddenly stuck to him tightly.

Shi Xiaxia pressed her hands against the talisman, and a wisp of spiritual energy entered the area where the talisman was tightly attached.

Immediately afterwards, Lu Chuanbai felt all the abnormalities in his body subside.

"These are the simplest Gu worms; you just need to kill them," Shi Xiaxia explained, and then helped Su Wusi remove the Gu worms from his body.

After dealing with Su Wusi's Gu worms, a surge of spiritual energy flashed across her body.

Shi Xiaxia paused, focused her spiritual energy on her eyes, and looked at her carefully, but found nothing unusual.

However, the spiritual energy fluctuation just now was very similar to the spiritual energy fluctuation on Shen Yi's body!

Shi Xiaxia's expression darkened. This Gu worm was very different from the "ethereal" Gu worm she had experienced before!

They're not even in the same league!

Although Shi Xiaxia's spiritual power has not fully recovered, it is not to the point that not a trace can be found!

However, after looking at it for a long time, she still couldn't find where the spiritual energy was coming from.

Lu Chuanbai noticed Shi Xiaxia's actions and sudden serious expression, and asked worriedly, "Miss Shi, what's wrong?"

Shi Xiaxia shook her head and didn't say anything. She knew that the spiritual energy fluctuations on Shen Yi and Su Wusi were inextricably linked to Shen Qingqing!

I just don't know what this thing is used for.

She wasn't entirely confident in handling this situation, nor was she entirely confident in bringing down Shen Qingqing, so she wouldn't act rashly.

Qiao Zihao felt uncomfortable seeing Lu Chuanbai staring at Shi Xiaxia.

He then stepped forward, blocking Lu Chuanbai's view, and said with a grin, "Xiaxia and I have worked so hard for you for so long, it's not too much to ask for a reward of several million, is it?"

"Didn't I already give you two million?! Why do you still want it?!" Su Wusi immediately shouted.

She then noticed Lu Chuanbai's gaze and quickly shut her mouth, no longer making a sound.

"The payment will be deposited into your accounts later," Lu Chuanbai said calmly.

Shi Xiaxia nodded: "Mr. Lu and Ms. Su are fine for now, so I won't bother you any longer."

After saying that, she led Qiao Zihao outside.

Qiao Zihao followed Shi Xiaxia for a few steps, then suddenly thought of something.
