In the next few days, Ye Zhao lay awake at night, tossing and turning. Whenever he fell asleep, those horrific scenes would flood his mind - he dreamed of being tortured after being arrested.

Today, the dinner table was rarely filled with sumptuous delicacies, and the family ate with gusto. However, in sharp contrast to this cheerful atmosphere was Ye Zhao's worried look. He could be seen absent-mindedly poking at the food in front of him with his chopsticks, and a good plate of food had been poked to pieces.

Ouyang Jingjing always hated others wasting food, so she said angrily: "Hey, Mr. Ye, if you don't like these meals, you don't have to force yourself to eat them, but you don't have to smash them to pieces like this, right? You let others How can I take off my chopsticks?"

Ye Zhao suddenly came back to his senses, looking at the dish that he had made so terrible, his heart was suddenly filled with guilt.

"I'm so sorry!" He apologized quickly.

As soon as he finished speaking, the man put down the bowls and chopsticks in his hands, stood up and left first. There were only five people left at the dinner table, except for the innocent girl. The other four looked at each other. Although they did not speak, they all speeded up their eating in understanding.

After finishing the meal, the four people walked towards a courtyard together as if they had discussed it in advance. Qing Ning stood quietly beside Zhuo Yi, when Ouyang Jingjing walked slowly over.

"This Mr. Ye is really hiding his secrets. Even though things have developed to this point, he still stands still and has no intention of checking the real treasure map." Ouyang Jingjing said softly.

"Well, this person is indeed very cautious in his actions. Judging from the current situation, if we want him to take the initiative to look at the map, I'm afraid we have to add more firepower!" Zhuo Yi frowned slightly, thoughtfully. replied.

"There is no need for us to take action personally. These days, I have been lurking in the city lord's palace to spy on information. I accidentally noticed a rather strange room, so I sneaked into it quietly to find out. There was a white-haired man sitting in the room. The old man has a face as delicate as a child, and his pretentious behavior is disgusting. However, this person has a high status, and even Ming Haijun must be polite to him! "

Fang Yuanyuan described in detail her recent major discoveries, and she might be able to achieve some purpose with the help of this mysterious old man.

"I just got the exact news that the Liu family has been destroyed. From this point of view, this Ming Haijun can be said to be bold, but he won't be able to stand still for long!"

After killing so many people, don't you feel a little guilty? The laws of heaven are clear, and if you don't miss anything, his retribution will come sooner or later!

"Everyone, please be patient. We will stay put for the next few days and pay close attention to changes in the situation. I believe there will be news soon!"

In the city lord's palace, Ming Haijun said with a gloomy expression.

Immediately afterwards, he stepped into the secret room where Madam Liu was imprisoned. When he saw the dying and embarrassed woman in front of him, he couldn't help but feel a trace of pity in his heart, but more of it was resentment and anger. So, he quickly walked up to Mrs. Liu in three steps and two steps at a time, grabbed her hair mercilessly, pulled her back forcefully, and stared at her fiercely with his eyes wide open.

"Tell me quickly! Where did your Liu family hide the real treasure map?" Ming Haijun asked with gritted teeth.

At this moment, this pampered lady in the past has become extremely haggard, like a candle in the wind that may be extinguished at any time. Although her body was extremely weak, she still struggled to raise her head and looked at the man with whom she had once sworn an oath with complex eyes - now he had become so hideous and terrifying that it was chilling.

"I, I don't know... what, the location of the treasure map!" The woman's face was as pale as paper, her lips were trembling, and she spoke every word with great difficulty. However, the man sneered at her words and shouted with disbelief: "You don't know? That's an heirloom of your Liu family, how could you not know it! Tell me, where is it hidden? Otherwise, don't blame me for being cruel. ! Third uncle is already here and wants our Rou'er!"

Faced with the man's fierce questioning and threats, the woman's heart was torn and tears fell like rain. She couldn't understand why the man she once loved so deeply had become so cold and ruthless, even using their biological daughter to threaten her. You know, Rou'er is also his flesh and blood! As the saying goes, even a tiger won't eat its own cubs, but how could he be so cruel now?

"I...really...don't know!" The woman cried and begged again, her voice almost hoarse. At this moment, she was in grief, as if the whole world had collapsed.
