Chapter 2334: Do You Want to Leave This Place?

“So what now? Is she injured? Is it serious?” Qiao Mei asked.

“I’ve already hired a nurse for her. In any case, I’ve done my best,” Xia Yuan said.

“You need to find a capable woman to subdue her… and it must be a woman whom she has never met before…” Qiao Mei thought for a while and looked towards Qian’e.

Qian’e was caught by surprise and immediately said, “Why are you looking at me!”

“I think you’re the only suitable candidate,” Qiao Mei said.

“No! Don’t even think about it! Dream on! I still have something on, so I have to go! Call me if there’s anything else!” With that, Qian’e picked up her bag and documents and ran off. After that, there was no need for Chi Ze to stay here any longer. He also picked up his things and left with Qian’e.

Xia Yuan and Qiao Mei were left stunned and rooted to the spot. The two of them could only stare at each other. There was no good solution for this matter for the time being. They should give more thought to it later.

Late in the night, wails of agony could be heard from a room in the mental hospital. Tan Jing had been brought to a single room by a group of people, using the excuse that she was mentally too unstable. The room had solid walls on all four sides and the entire room was totally dark without any lights.

“I don’t want to be here… I don’t want to be here… Let me out… Let me out…” Tan Jing muttered to herself as she hid in a corner.

The door suddenly opened and a person came in. When Tan Jing saw who it was, she crawled to the person’s side excitedly and shouted, “Father! Take me with you! Save me! Father! I’m your biological daughter! You must bring me home! Can you save me! Please!”

Tan Bo stood still and patted Tan Jing’s head as he said, “My good daughter, I’m here this time to bring you away. However, before we can go, you need to help me complete one task. Only then can we get out successfully.”

Tan Jing did not even pay attention to what Tan Bo said. She only heard the words “get out”. As long as she could get out, she would do anything! She did not want to stay here anymore!

Tan Bo took out a bottle and a dagger from his bag and placed them on the floor. He pointed at the two items and said, “As long as you find a way to let everyone in Qiao Mei’s family drink this, I can definitely bring you out of here.”

Tan Jing had studied poison for a long time during that period of time. She did not even need to look at the bottle to know that it contained a highly toxic poison. She could recognize it by the smell. Back then, she had almost wanted to use it on the Huang family if not for the fact that this poison was too strong and she was afraid that the matter would be easily exposed. In the end, she chose to hide it away.

“Is… is that really what you want?” Tan Jing looked at Tan Bo and asked curiously.

All his life, Tan Bo did not even dare to slaughter a chicken. Jiang Yi was the one who made all the decisions in the family. No matter how Tan Jing looked at this issue, it all felt very strange. If so, there was only one other possibility. Someone must have instigated Tan Bo to do this.

“You don’t have to care about what I think. You just have to do it,” Tan Bo said.

“Who’s the one who asks you to come and look for me?” Tan Jing asked.

Tan Jing sat on the floor and thought for a long time before she spoke mildly, “It must be the people from the Huang family who ask you to come. Qiao Mei won’t be silly enough to help the Huang family members. Those people from the Huang family must really hate Qiao Mei, but are helpless against her. They are either dying or very sick, so they ask you to come and look for me, right?”

She had never been so lucid before and she did not look like a mental patient. Perhaps she was never a mental patient in the first place.

Tan Bo looked at Tan Jing in disbelief. At this point, she actually still had the time to think about what others were doing. She should just think about her current situation! What right did she have to say these things!

“Just tell me if you can do it or not, and if you want to leave this place,” Tan Bo said.

“Tell me, who’s already dead in their family and who’s the one who asks you to come and look for me?” Tan Jing asked again.

Tan Bo refused to answer this question. In the end, Tan Jing thought that Tan Bo was really benevolent enough to want to come and save her. She was still naive enough to crave for care and concern from her family.

Tan Jing picked up the bottle and dagger from the floor and said, “I’m living a life worse than death here. Go and tell that person that I’ll do it.”

“Three days. You have three days. When the three days are up and if Qiao Mei is still alive, then you can only stay here forever. Your ending will be even more tragic than now and you’ll wish that you are dead.” With that, Tan Bo left the room.

The door closed and Tan Jing was left in the darkness again. The surroundings were very quiet and she could even hear her own breathing and heartbeat very clearly.

After an unknown period of time, the door opened again. A woman threw a set of cleaner’s uniform in front of Tan Jing and said, “Quickly change your clothes and follow me!”
