Chapter 875: Talk about love

"After he regained consciousness, he was in great pain and remorse, and ordered us to lock him up in an abandoned warehouse with chains. He said he didn't know when he would go crazy again, and to be on the safe side, he had to lock himself up."

The charming woman pursed her cherry-red lips and said, "He really is a good man. To avoid hurting others, he bound himself for a full fortnight. But he underestimated his own strength. When he fell mad again, he destroyed the chains and the warehouse in one fell swoop. After that, he killed many more people. When he regained consciousness and realized his crimes, he lost his mind and locked himself in a pigsty. He also cut off the meridians in his hands and feet, and would not let anyone get close to him."

At this point, a trace of pain appeared on Mei Nu's face. "He said he did this to atone for his sins. If anyone dared to take him out, he would bite his tongue and commit suicide. So, we had no choice but to let him stay there until now."

"Really?" After hearing Mei Nu's words, Qin Zhong clenched his fists and asked, "Then why did you send someone to kill Wang Yue?"

Although Qin Zhong had long seen through the true face of this woman, he still continued to ask questions with interest, because he wanted to see what excuse this woman could eventually make up to fool him.

"No, I didn't kill him. I just wanted to free him."

Mei Nu shook her head, a hint of sadness in her voice. "Whatever sins he committed, these past few months of suffering worse than death are enough for him to atone for them. We are well aware of his injuries, which are severe and cannot be healed no matter what. With your arrival, we are worried that you will blame us for his current condition. Therefore, we can only help him get rid of his sins while leaving ourselves a way out."

"So, you admit that you sent someone to kill Wang Yue."

Hearing Mei Nu's words, Qin Zhong smiled coldly and said, "You admitted to killing my friend in front of me. Aren't you really afraid that I will kill you now?"

As he spoke, the coldness on Qin Zhong's face grew even stronger, and he snorted coldly, "Or do you think I can't kill you?"

"I believe you're not a bloodthirsty person. You have your own judgment of right and wrong. That's why I asked you out alone to explain things face to face to avoid further misunderstandings."

Facing Qin Zhong's question, Mei Nu slowly raised her head, her watery eyes misty, "Now that things have come to this, if you really want to kill me, I have nothing to say."

After saying this, Mei Nu slightly raised her head, revealing her fair neck. Qin Zhong's eyes could not help but fall on it, and along the fair neck, he looked towards...

"Cough cough..."

Qin Zhong was shocked. This woman really made full use of her physical advantages. Even though he was so cautious, he almost fell into her trap several times.

"Never mind. It was his own choice that things had developed to this point. Fortunately, my men discovered him in time and rescued him. Otherwise, if I knew that you had killed him, I would definitely grind you to ashes to avenge you."

Qin Zhong glared at Mei Nu fiercely and said in a deep voice, "However, Wang Yue's injuries are not incurable. We have the most advanced medical technology. Although his injuries are serious, they are not difficult for us. His injuries are now stable. Although we cannot wake him up for the time being, I believe that within a week, this guy will be able to jump around again!"

Having said this, Qin Zhong paused for a moment, then continued, "I will personally verify what you said today with him. If what you said is true, then this matter will be dropped. But if I find out that you dare to lie to me, hmph, I promise to make you regret living in this world."

"What! Lord Wang Yue really has a chance to wake up?" Hearing Qin Zhong's words, Mei Nu's face was full of surprise, but her heart sank suddenly.

She knew that at this point, they had no other choice but to take the riskiest move.

……

"That's right. My doctor said he'll be able to wake up in three days at the shortest, five days at the longest. In short, he'll definitely wake up within a week." Qin nodded and said, "Then the truth will be revealed."

"That's great, that's really great. I was worried that Lord Wang Yue wouldn't wake up, and then we would have to bear the infamy of lord-killing for the rest of our lives."

The charming woman patted her towering chest with a look of surprise, then picked up two drinks from the bedside and said, "Commander, this news makes me so happy. If you don't mind, I'd like to share a drink with you. This is a drink made from a special fruit called Snake Orchid Brew. It tastes very good. Although it's not particularly precious, it has a unique flavor."

"Snake orchid wine? I've never heard of it."

Qin Zhong took the cup Mei Nu handed over, looked at the purple liquid in the cup, sniffed it, and said, "It smells light and elegant, I wonder what it tastes like. But, Mei Nu, you suddenly asked me to drink something, is this drink poisonous?"

"Ah, Commander, I dare not, absolutely not!"

Qin Zhong's words seemed to frighten Mei Nu. Her face turned pale and she explained in panic, "Commander, if you don't want to drink, just say so. Don't scare me! How could this be poisonous? If you don't believe me, I can drink both cups!"

As she spoke, Mei Nu reached out to grab the cup from Qin Zhong's hand, saying, "You know, for an Evolver like you, poison is almost ineffective against you. Besides, your men all know you're with me. If I were to harm you, wouldn't that be courting death?"

Mei Nu's words seemed to have touched Qin Zhong. He slightly retracted the cup he was about to hand over, smiled faintly and said, "Haha, I was just joking. Don't be so scared."

Qin Zhong glanced at Mei Nu and smiled faintly, "I really appreciate your initiative to come to me to explain today. As long as Wang Yue wakes up and confirms that you are not lying, I will not pursue this matter any further."

Qin Zhong no longer hesitated, raised his hand and drank the drink in the cup, and said coldly: "But, as I said just now, if what you said today is a lie, don't blame me for being ruthless."

"Hey, Commander, you really don't understand romance. In such a good atmosphere, why do you say such hurtful and harsh words!"

Seeing Qin Zhong drink the drink, Mei Nu's expression suddenly changed, and she said with a smile: "Instead of shouting and fighting, why don't we have a few drinks, talk about love, and do the things we love, isn't it good?"

"Humph, you really think highly of yourself. I really can't stand a broken flower like you!"

Hearing Mei Nu's somewhat blatant teasing, Qin Zhong snorted coldly, stood up and said, "Your tricks are useless to me. You'd better behave yourself, otherwise, don't blame me for being rude!"

After saying that, Qin Zhong seemed to have lost interest in continuing to chat with Mei Nu and turned around to leave.

But after taking just two steps, he swayed, staggered a few steps, and almost fell to the ground.
