Chapter 181: Six Fingers

Finally, this guy did something to her satisfaction!

However, Ye Zhe didn't even spare her a glance. He simply walked to one side.

Heng Niang pouted, not caring at all. Her body went limp and she couldn't help but lean on Liu Rumei. "Liu Liu is still the most considerate. I didn't even say anything, yet Liu Liu avenged me."

Liu Rumei was truly curious. "How did you get to know Xue Jingjia, Heng Niang?"

Heng Niang still leaned limply on her and said leisurely, "I picked up A Nan below the cliff. That bastard lied to me that he would give me a reward. I served him delicious food and good drinks. It took more than a year for him to recover. Five years later, the bastard and I could finally leave that wretched place. We were going to his family's mansion of the Grand Marshal to get the reward. Who would have thought that that dead girl would say that the bastard was an imposter and order people to beat us out. I was really angry at that time. I just wished I could chop her up with a knife!"

Although many years had passed, she still harbored a grudge in her heart. She really had never suffered such an insult in her life!

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but glare at A Nan again. It was all this bastard's fault!

A Nan also pouted. "It was just an accident!"

Who would have thought that that woman would be so heartless? Xue Jingjia had completely inherited that woman's cruelty. What surprised him was that this woman would bring about her own downfall so soon!

Heng Niang couldn't help but glare at him again. "Humph! You're just a liar!"

A Nan pursed his lips. He was indeed in the wrong about this matter, so he didn't argue.

Liu Rumei didn't expect such a thing to have happened! For a moment, she could only shake her head helplessly.

Yun Xi was squatting beside the skeleton. Her eyes were full of curiosity. "Sister, have you found out the identity of this person?"

Liu Rumei shook her head. "This happened a long time ago. It may not be easy to find out for a while!"

Seeing that it was getting late, Liu Rumei quickly drove the two brothers to sleep.

At this time, Heng Niang softly nestled in Liu Rumei's arms and said in a soft voice, "Liu Liu, can I sleep with you tonight? I'll warm the bed for you."

Hearing this, the two men in the yard instantly turned ashen - faced.

A Nan couldn't help but step forward and tug at Heng Niang's sleeve. "Heng Niang, let's not bother Liu Rumei and the others..."

Heng Niang glanced at him indifferently and stared at Mo Liandi warily. "In that case, I definitely have to sleep beside Liu Liu. They're not even married yet, but they're living in the same courtyard. What's this all about? Don't think that just because no one is backing Liu Liu up, you can bully her at will!"

Hearing this, Mo Liandi's face turned completely ashen. Although he had thought this woman was annoying more than once, he had never found her as annoying as he did today!

Immediately, he said to A Nan beside him, "Take her away, or I won't mind kicking her out."

The place beside Liu Liu was reserved for him. How dare this woman?

Seeing this, A Nan quickly tugged at Heng Niang's clothes again. His face was full of grievance. "Heng Niang..."

However, Heng Niang snorted and led Liu Rumei towards the house.

Liu Rumei didn't say anything. Her expression was calm.

Who would have thought that just as they reached the door, they bumped into someone. In the blink of an eye, Liu Rumei fell into a familiar embrace.

A cold voice sounded in her ear. "Don't force me to drive people away!"

Heng Niang looked at the empty space beside her, blinked her eyes, and her eyes were full of disbelief. "If you have the guts, then drive me away!"

This was simply unbearable! She had never seen such a bully!

Seeing that Liu Rumei had fallen into Mo Liandi's hands, A Nan immediately stepped forward quickly. With lightning speed, he picked up Heng Niang and rushed out of the Western Courtyard.

From a distance came Heng Niang's furious scolding. "Let go of me, you bastard!"

Liu Rumei blinked her eyes as if she hadn't come to her senses yet. Her eyes were full of surprise.

This action was really fast!

Coming to her senses, she was about to break free from Mo Liandi's hand and enter the room. Unexpectedly, when she looked up, she met a pair of aggrieved eyes.

Liu Rumei felt extremely embarrassed. She quickly pushed the person away, rushed into the room, and closed the door.

Mo Liandi was left looking at Liu Rumei's actions and sighing deeply. I can warm the bed too...

Si Xi couldn't help but laugh. Fortunately, Ye Zhe carried her out before she burst out laughing.

"Men and women should keep a proper distance! Do you know that?" Carrying her like a chick was just to show off his strength, wasn't it?

...

The next day.

Just as dawn broke, Xue Zhan rushed over. Seeing A Nan and Heng Niang in the courtyard, he raised his eyebrows, but without hesitation, he walked up to Liu Rumei. "That old man asked me to tell you that that person might have been that woman's lover back then. After the incident, the old man locked him in the wood - shed and then beat him to death with clubs. But the body has disappeared!"

Hearing this, Liu Rumei subconsciously looked at A Nan.

A Nan yawned lazily. "Why are you looking at me? I'm not curious about that woman and her lover."

He was really sleepy after tossing around all night yesterday.

Heng Niang pouted. "This idiot was thrown off the cliff back then. Thanks to this person's scheme. It's really karma. I said why there was no body to be found. It turns out someone got there first."

Liu Rumei breathed a sigh of relief when she heard this.

Xue Zhan added, "I've investigated. At that time, the man was beaten until he lost his breath. They left him there and planned to come back and carry him out to throw him away. But when they came back, he was gone. I suspect that the man wasn't actually dead at that time!"

It was just that no one knew why he was dismembered and buried in the secret passage.

If the man had already died at that time, probably no one would have gone to so much trouble.

Liu Rumei also nodded. "But this is just a guess. If it's really as you said, I'm afraid he met someone, which is why he was dismembered."

But who was this person? The man was already dying at that time. Why did she go to so much trouble?

Even if she killed the man, she just needed to throw the body back to its original place. Probably no one would have suspected. Why did she do such a thing?

After a while, everyone also thought of this. A Nan suddenly said, "I want to take a look at that skeleton."

Liu Rumei was slightly stunned. Ye Zhe quickly took out the skeleton and threw it in front of A Nan.

Xue Zhan's eyes were full of confusion.

A Nan glanced at the skeleton, and a hint of mockery flashed in his eyes. "This isn't that person!"

"How do you know?" Xue Zhan frowned and asked.

A Nan sneered again and pointed at the right foot of the body. "That man was born with six fingers on his right foot."
