Chapter 1744: Went to LI Gouzi’s House

Li Gouzi was miserable. He really did have the money, but his purse was gone. Which bastard stole his money? That asshole!

Li Gouzi, who was badly beaten, went back home and lay on the bed, groaning in pain.

In the middle of the night, Ning Shu took the powdered drugs and went to Li Gouzi’s house where she saw him sleeping like the dead.

There wasn’t even an oil lamp in the room. Ning Shu scooped up some water from the water pot in the kitchen. She poured the powdered drugs into the bowl, then waited for the larger bits to settle down, and poured the mixture into another bowl.

She quietly entered the bedroom with the bowl and placed the bowl beside the head of the bed then left the room, watching Li Gouzi from outside the window.

For fear that Li Gouzi would not drink the water, Ning Shu took out some medicinal powder and lit it with a flame stick. The medicinal powder was slightly damp and emitted a thick smoke.

Ning Shu covered her nose with a handkerchief and fanned the smoke into the house, then hurriedly extinguished it once there was enough smog in the room.

At night, even just the sparks from flames were very conspicuous. Although everyone was asleep, someone could still wake up in the middle of the night and see Ning Shu.

To live in such an era, one must be extremely vigilant.

As Ning Shu waited outside, Li Gouzi began tossing and turning on the bed until he finally sat up from the bed.

Li Gouzi felt that his mouth was very dry, so he got up to drink some water. He vaguely saw a bowl beside the bed, so he took a sip from it and then gulped the rest down.

After drinking, Li Gouzi lay back down and went back to sleep.

But this time he wasn’t able to fall back asleep. He felt hot and sweaty, so he got up and went out of the house to get some fresh air.

Li Gouzi sighed deeply. The high-interest loan weighed heavily on him. If he couldn’t pay up, his hands and feet would get chopped off.

Li Gouzi feared death terribly and he feared the pain of having his hands and feet cut off. Li Gouzi was the type to wail for hours after getting just a paper cut.

Li Gouzi wiped his sweat and decided to find Bai Yiqiao. He helped her out before and she even paid him money for it last time. She had to solve this matter for him as well.

Li Gouzi went to Fang Yong’s house while it was still dark.

Ning Shu followed Li Gouzi. She saw him draw near Fang Yong’s house, then bark three times.

Bai Yiqiao woke up when she heard the barking of a dog and was taken aback for a moment with a puzzled expression on her face. Then she heard three dog barks again and lightly sat up from the bed.

Fang Yong slept very lightly. Even if Bai Yiqiao’s movements were lighter, she would still wake him up.

“What’s the matter?” Fang Yong asked Bai Yiqiao.

Bai Yiqiao whispered, “It’s nothing. My stomach feels a little uncomfortable so I’ll go to the restroom. You can go back to sleep.”

Fang Yong asked, “Do you want me to go with you?”

“No need.”

Bai Yiqiao left the room, closed the door, and walked out of the yard, looking around.

“Sister-in-law Bai.” Li Gouzi popped out suddenly, shocking Bai Yiqiao. She lowered her voice and said, “What are you doing?”

“Sister-in-law Bai, I need your help. Last time I helped you solve the issue with Chen Ermei,” Li Gouzi said to Bai Yiqiao.

“You actually have the nerve to say that? You didn’t ruin Chen Ermei at all. You slept in the house all by yourself. If you dare mention this again, I’ll be implicated by you.” Bai Yiqiao was furious.

Luckily, she was Fang Yong’s wife now. If she was still with that affluent family’s slimy son and there was another man at home, she would’ve been drowned in a pig cage by now and gotten taken care of by the madam of the house.

This incident counted as a stain on her reputation. She didn’t know if Fang Yong actually cared about it or not. Bai Yiqiao was afraid that it would become a ticking bomb inside his heart that could explode sometime in the future.
