Chapter 166
Chen Qiu smiled coldly.
Zhou Shuwan and Dong Xinglong were already stunned.
"So, I'm not going to avenge her! I hate her so much that I don't even have time to avenge her!" Chen Qiu took a deep breath and opened his eyes:
"I killed him because Tung Chee-hwa couldn't get his daughter, so he set his sights on me. He heard that Boss Mu liked married women, so he actually told me to spend a few days with him... He could sell his own daughter, and he could sell his wife too. What was the point of keeping such a heartless, ruthless man around? If I kill him, Xinglong and I will be free!"
Dong Xinglong had sat up at some point and stared at her blankly: "Mom, you..."
He couldn't accept that his mother wanted to kill his father, and his thin face was confused and panicked.
"I begged countless fertility pills to give birth to him. His personality was different from other children from the moment he was born. I only know bits and pieces of what Tung Chee-hwa did, but Xinglong knows nothing. So, if you want revenge, you can come after me. Let him go, I beg you!"
When Chen Qiu talked about his son, an expression of fear and pleading appeared on his face, no longer the numbness he had before.
"But you actually anticipated this, didn't you?" Zhou Shuwan suddenly said, "Otherwise, you wouldn't have gone out with your son for several nights in a row to secretly transfer Tung Chee-hwa's supplies! Perhaps when you knew Tung Chee-hwa was going to send Dong Qingqing away, you were already prepared to live alone with your son!"
Chen Qiu paused for a moment before speaking hoarsely, "I can give you all the supplies that Tung Chee-hwa hid, and I'll give you half of what Xinglong and I hid. Together, these are enough for your family to eat and drink for two years. I only ask that you spare my son's life!"
"Mom!" Dong Xinglong shouted, looked at Zhou Shuwan angrily, turned his head and said nothing.
Zhou Shuwan asked, "Do you know where Tung Chee-hwa is hiding?"
Chen Qiu shook his head. "Either he goes to seek refuge with Boss Mu, or he hides in some resettlement area. But no matter where he hides, he drank the poisoned water and he won't survive!"
Zhou Shuwan turned around, opened the door, and was about to leave.
"You, what exactly do you want to do to us? If you have hatred and anger, come at me! Don't come at my son!" Chen Qiu suddenly lost his composure.
Zhou Shuwan left without even turning his head.
She was thinking about Chen Qiu in her previous life. It seemed that she and her son Dong Xinglong had always lived a pampered life at home, and the incident of her poisoning Dong Jianhua had never happened.
Could it be that because they saved Dong Qingqing, Tung Chee-hwa became angry and took his anger out on Chen Qiu, so Chen Qiu made a different choice in this life?
Zhou Shuwan went to the place where Aunt Song was imprisoned again.
Aunt Song was imprisoned in another place. She did not lie and did find Tung Chee-hwa's supplies tonight.
Zhou Shuwan plans to send her to the resettlement site where Dong Qingqing was sent tomorrow, and as promised, give her and Dong Qingqing two boxes of compressed biscuits and two boxes of canned pork. There are 100 packs of compressed biscuits in a box, and the canned pork is enough for the two of them to eat for half a year if they save some.
What happens in half a year has nothing to do with her.
After dealing with these things, it was already past three in the morning.
Zhou Shuwan dragged his exhausted body back, but happened to meet Qi Mingyu at the entrance of the corridor.
The man was waiting there anxiously. When he saw her, he strode over. He looked her up and down to make sure she was not injured before asking, "Why are you back so late? I almost thought you were in trouble and wanted to go back to look for you!"
Zhou Shuwan was also surprised: "Have you been waiting for me?"
Qi Mingyu paused and asked, "Did something happen? What happened?"
Zhou Shuwan understood after a moment's thought. The other party came back first, allowing her to hide the supplies in a safe place without worry.
But after coming back, he was still worried, so he stood here waiting.
A warm feeling surged in her heart, and since there was nothing to hide, she told Chen Qiu about her meeting with him.
The latter frowned slightly, thought for a moment, and said, "It's too late. Don't think about these things anymore. I will deal with them tomorrow. Go back and get some sleep."
Zhou Shuwan looked at him with wide eyes: "How are you going to deal with this?"
Qi Mingyu said, "First, we need to confirm whether what she said is true or not, and then find Dong Jianhua. We must know whether the person is alive or dead."
Zhou Shuwan nodded: "Yes, otherwise we won't feel at ease!"
"Okay, go back to sleep." Qi Mingyu watched her go upstairs.
When he heard the door on the sixth floor open and she tiptoed in and closed the door, he waited for a while before he put away the relaxed expression on his face and looked outside solemnly.
After pondering for a moment, he rowed out and returned only when it was dawn.
His body was still damp from the night, so he took a quick cold shower and fell asleep.
Seeing his expression, Grandma Pang knew that he had returned very late again, so she left some food for him and went to take care of the vegetables that she had carefully grown on the balcony.
She transplanted some sweet potato seedlings from Zhou's house upstairs, and planted cucumbers and lettuce, as well as wild leeks and other wild vegetables transplanted from the mountain.
Now, their home is full of life.
When eating, you can stir-fry canned meat with lettuce, wild leeks, and sweet potato sprouts, which makes the meal less monotonous.
There is a hen and a group of half-grown chicks on the other balcony. They chirp every day, which adds a bit of liveliness to the balcony.
But the place is a little small after all.
The two balconies are used for both breeding and planting, and Qi Mingyu's training room has been moved to a corner of the living room.
Grandma Pang beamed as she pulled out an egg and fed the hens and chicks some millet mixed with chopped sweet potato leaves. "You're all my great contributors. Eat quickly and lay more eggs when you grow up!"
At this moment, there was a noise outside.
Grandma Pang listened carefully, but couldn't hear clearly.
She simply went out and went up to the sixth floor.
Now there are only two families left in this unit, the Qi family and the Zhou family, so it is quite quiet.
Zhou Jianghai was listening on the balcony, and then he laughed his ass off: "The loudspeaker announced that the water would be released to our community at mid-afternoon this afternoon."
It’s released every three days, and it’s my turn so soon.
Grandma Pang was also very happy: "Then I have to prepare in advance and fill all the containers at home with water. Since the water shortage, my family has used the water several times and dare not waste it anymore."
"Yes, it's the same in our family." Zhong Tiyun said with a smile.
In the afternoon, Zhou Shuwan and Qi Mingyu went to the water protection team.
Zhong Tiyun said, "Xiao Yu, you don't have to worry about home. My family will pick up the water this afternoon and I will go to your house to help Grandma Pang get water."
Qi Mingyu has placed various containers under the faucet at home, and he just needs to turn on the faucet when the time comes.
I was just worried that the water was too heavy and Grandma Pang couldn’t carry it by herself.
"Thank you, auntie." Qi Mingyu thanked her sincerely.
