Chapter 237 - Locked on
Chapter 237: Locked on
On the other side, Qin Xi learned from Dong Xiaoxuan that her daughter was hidden by Master Qi. As for where, she did not know.
After returning to the manor, Qin Xi gathered Saber and Blood Stealer. “I’ll give you a mission. Find out the whereabouts of the child from Master Qi and bring her back.”
Lone Wolf said calmly, “I alone am enough.”
There was no need to use a musket to kill a butterfly.
Qin Xi naturally knew what he meant. She said with a smile, “Of course I know your strength. The reason why I asked you to take on the mission together is not only to ensure that nothing goes wrong. Next, I’m going to teach you some torture methods. Of course, I want you to find a lab rat to test it out.”
She said it casually, her recognizable baby face filled with an innocent smile. However, it made everyone present, including Dong Xiaoxuan, feel a chill down their spines.
Blood Stealer, on the other hand, was abnormally excited. He asked eagerly, “Lady Boss, what kind of torture method is it? Hurry up and teach me!”
Qin Xi smiled and said, “Then listen carefully…”

It was dark and windy at night.
At midnight, because of the tracking talisman, Lone Wolf, Blood Stealer, and Saber quickly locked onto Master Qi’s location.
After Master Qi ran out of the old building in a sorry state, he did not go straight home. Instead, he visited her parents’ grave. After that, he found a nearby bar and pretended to drink to drown his sorrows.
The reason he did this was fabricate some alibis.
However, what he did not know was that Liang Bing had collected his liquid for testing. If he knew, he would probably panic and rush to the hospital.
In the private room, Master Qi called over two subordinates he trusted and drank wine absent-mindedly. He was wondering who the person who wrote the note was and what that person’s motive was. How did Liang Bing know?
All kinds of questions lingered in his mind, making his head buzz.
At this moment, one of his subordinates beside him poured a glass of wine and asked, “Master Qi, you look like you have a lot on your mind. Did something happen? Do you want to tell me and Dong Zi so that we can help you solve it.”
Master Qi did not want to say it at first, but his mind was in a mess now. He really could not think of a way to deal with the situation. After thinking for a moment, he said, “If my wife suspects me of having an affair, how should I deal with it?”
He did not make a comparison or mention the note. He just succinctly explained his anxiety.
Now, he couldn’t care less about the note. He just wanted to dispel Liang Bing’s suspicion of him.
Dong Zi and Pang Dao looked at each other, and an imperceptible dark glint flashed across their eyes. Pang Dao said hesitantly, “Master Qi, you…”
Master Qi’s expression immediately changed. “Cut the crap. Don’t you know what kind of a person I am? When did I ever have a woman by my side? It’s Bing… Sigh, women are like this. They always suspect men of cheating on them. I’m trying to think of a way to express my loyalty and make her happy.”
Dong Zi and Pang Dao heaved a sigh of relief.
It had to be noted that the reason why Master Qi could be where he was today was all because of Old Master Liang. Although Old Master Liang was not in charge anymore, he still held a lot of power. If he could make Master Qi who he was today, he had the ability to bring Master Qi down as well. As a father, he wouldn’t forgive someone cheating on her daughter.
Dong Zi grinned and snapped his fingers. “Master Qi, that’s easy. Women know women the best. Why don’t we get some women over to ask them about it?”
Master Qi’s eyes lit up and he slapped his thigh excitedly. “That’s right. Why didn’t I think of that?”
