Chapter 2239
2239 Top-grade witness (2)
“Really?” When the other family heads heard this, they were all surprised, especially when they heard that Lu Qi had once been the master of that little maidservant. They were all envious. Only the Lu family head looked constipated and hesitated to speak.
In the end, the patriarch of the Lu clan finally gathered his courage and asked,””How is Qi ‘er?”
“Qi ‘er? Are you talking about Lu Qi?” Master ning asked indifferently.
“Yes.” The patriarch of the Lu clan nodded.
“Of course, he’s good. He eats and drinks well every day, and he’s so free. He’s living a much better life than us! By the way, is he … A member of the Lu family?” As the master of the ning family spoke, he suddenly remembered that they had the same surname, Lu, so he guessed. He didn’t expect to see the master of the Lu family nod.
However, the old man’s face was bitter, as if he had some unspeakable suffering. But he didn’t say anything, and master ning had no interest in prying into other people’s privacy, but he could more or less guess that it was nothing more than some melodramatic drama of being driven out of the house or misunderstood because of some matter!
Thinking this way, the master of the ning family changed the topic.””He made us wait for so long, and now that the Yao family’s old thing is here, I have to get an explanation from him! Our time is also very precious, how can we let him waste it like this!”
“That’s right! We can’t let him go!” The head of the Cheng clan’s mouth was stuffed full as he agreed in a somewhat muffled voice.
Looking at him eating one in his mouth and holding another in his hand, Leng ruoxue really didn’t know what to say! Clan head Cheng, where’s your image?
“I’m sorry to have kept you waiting!” At this moment, the voice of the head of the Yao family suddenly rang out in the living room. Following that, a man in green robes floated in.
If you didn’t take into account his unhealthy pale face, the image of the head of the Yao family was still pretty good! Leng ruoxue could not help but think to herself.
“I say, old man Yao, what’s wrong with you? Why did he look so Haggard? Could it be that you’ve been hanging around the flowers for too long that you’ve been blown dry?” He glanced at master Yao. Master ning’s words were aimed at angering people!
As expected, the patriarch’s face immediately flushed pink when he heard this, finally looking a little healthier than before. He replied in an unpleasant tone, “I’m not as excited as the master of the ning family. I’ve been busy with the poisoning these days. I don’t have time to think about all those messy things!”
“In that case, if you’re not busy with the poisoning, you’ll have time to think about other things, right?” The master of the ning family deliberately misinterpreted his words and asked with a sincere face.
“Of course not!” The head of the Yao clan replied, suppressing his anger.
Leng ruoxue couldn’t help but laugh when she saw how the head of the Yao family was trying his best to hide his emotions.
Then, she heard her Godfather say,””Since you’ve been running around for the past few days because of the poisoning, I’m sure there’s already some progress. Right, don’t forget about the antidote and compensation from our four families! This was a big deal! It’s the most important!”
“I can’t forget!” The head of the Yao family gritted his teeth. Hearing his seemingly affirmative answer, the heads of the ning family and the other three families were exceptionally happy. Therefore, they didn’t mind that the old man of the Yao family had deliberately ignored them! After all, he had to give the other party a chance to find a balance, right?
“There are some clues, but we still need to investigate further. That’s why I called you here to hear your opinions.” After taking a few deep breaths, the head of the Yao family, who secretly told himself that he had to stay calm, continued.
“Then tell us quickly, we can give you some ideas.” The master of the ning family was very cooperative.
“According to the clues, we found this matter …” Looking at master ning, master Yao deliberately paused, as if he had something difficult to say.
Seeing him like this, the master of the ning family couldn’t help but sneer. He said in a bad mood,””Old man Yao, if you have something to say, just say it! Why do you look like you’re constipated?”
“You …” Master ning’s words caused master Yao’s blood pressure to rise. He was so angry that he was about to explode. How could there be such a despicable person in this world? Didn’t she know that he was brewing his emotions? Only then would he appear to be in a difficult position. Otherwise, others would think that he was framing Leng ruoxue!
Originally, their plan was to let the other seven family heads catch the poisoner, but after thinking about it, he was afraid that the seven families would not follow the script they had arranged, so he had to change some strategies just in case. But now, even though he had changed his strategy, he still felt that it was a pain in the ass because he had not revealed anything, and the ning family head was not cooperating in all ways!
Secretly glaring at the master of the ning family, the master of the Yao family decided not to pay attention to this annoying guy, but continued the previous topic.
“We’ve caught the person who poisoned you …” Just as the Yao family’s head said this, the Cheng family’s head jumped up in shock, his eyes widening in disbelief.”Really? Did that person confess?”
“Patriarch Cheng, please calm down and let me continue.” Seeing the head of the Cheng family, the head of the Yao family also felt a headache! None of these family heads were easy to deal with!
“Alright! Then you can continue, but I’m an impatient person, so you’d better not beat around the bush and just say it! Who did this?” The head of the Cheng clan reminded.
“The person we captured was a waiter of the Yao clan. All of you should have heard of the Yao Clan Building, right? It’s the Yao family building that’s located at the foot of the mountain in the land of demons!” The head of the Yao clan explained.
“Of course I’ve heard of it. I’ve also heard that the Yao family building is your family’s property! Is this really your Yao clan’s doing?” The patriarch of the Cheng clan immediately reacted and cried out in alarm. The other patriarchs were clearly also extremely shocked.
Master Yin even gave master Yao a look of praise and said,””It’s the great fortune of the divine world for the Yao family to put righteousness before family!”
As soon as these words came out, all the patriarchs echoed one after another. Most of them were praising the Yao family’s patriarch for his righteousness, which made the Yao family patriarch furious!
F * ck! Were these people really stupid or were they just pretending?
When did he say that the Yao clan tower was the Yao clan ‘s? It’s fine if they’re from the Yao family! If the Yao family’s building, which could lay golden eggs, belonged to the Yao family, he might even wake up laughing in his sleep!
However, the truth was that the Yao family had no relationship with the Yao family at all. Furthermore, he did not believe that these old fogeys did not know about this matter!
If they knew the truth and still said that, they would be deliberately looking for trouble! The head of the Yao family thought to himself hatefully. Then, he took a few deep breaths before he said with a depressed expression,”Let me finish. That Yao Clan Building does not belong to our Yao clan!”
“How is that possible? If the Yao Clan Building didn’t belong to the Yao clan, then who else could it belong to? Don’t you guys agree?” The head of the Cheng clan widened his eyes in disbelief, as if he had just heard a fantasy story.
