Chapter 456 - 456: The Second Prince’s Brother
Luo Cheng didn’t hesitate. After hearing Li Xiaoran’s words, he immediately attacked.
A strong powder that knocked people out was sprinkled on the wild cat.
The little wild cat, which had leaped into the air, fell to the ground, as if all the strength had been sucked out of its body, and fainted.
Fortunately, the kitten was made of water, so it was fine even after falling.
Luo Cheng also walked towards the kitten. Then, he picked up two branches from the ground and examined the kitten carefully.
There was ringworm on the cat’s body, but that wasn’t the main point. The main point was that the cat’s claws were smeared with a lethal poison.
After being poisoned by this poison, the places where they were scratched would rot and no medicine would work.
After 49 days, the poison would spread elsewhere. In the end, the poisoned person would be tortured to death amidst pain and suffering.
At the thought of this possibility, Luo Cheng’s expression turned ugly.
It seemed that he was still too incompetent. Otherwise, why would these people dare to do such a thing?
“Wu Qinghe, come over and divine who the mastermind is! I don’t care what method you use, find him for me. Zi Zheng, bring some people to help Wu Qinghe! Also, take this cat away and extract the poison from the cat’s claws. I want those who poisoned him to have a taste of this poison too!” Luo Cheng’s expression was very ugly, and his tone was cold.
This sudden change surprised many people.
When they heard Luo Cheng’s words, many people came to a realization.
It seemed that someone wanted to take advantage of the situation to harm these two people!
Before anyone could say anything, Luo Cheng turned around and came to Li Xiaoran’s side.
“Madam, are you alright?”
“Husband, I’m fine! Don’t worry! I wasn’t frightened. Such a small matter can’t frighten me! ” Li Xiaoran shook her head to indicate that she was fine now.
“Why don’t we go back now?! ” Luo Cheng said with some heartache.
He originally wanted to accompany Li Xiaoran out for a walk, but he didn’t expect Li Xiaoran to almost lose her life.
This matter made Luo Cheng very angry, so for the sake of Li Xiaoran’s safety, Luo Cheng decided to return to the Seventh Prince’s residence first.
“Husband, it’s fine. Look, there are some empty shops in front. If we miss it, we won’t be able to find such an opportunity anymore.” Li Xiaoran looked ahead as she said.
After Luo Cheng turned around, he saw a sign for sale not far away.
The reason there was a bustling crowd was because of these shops.
As Li Xiaoran pulled Luo Cheng towards the shop, the surrounding onlookers took the initiative to make way for them.
At the far end of the crowd, a woman and a man stood facing each other.
“Who do these shops belong to?” Luo Cheng asked.
When the man saw that Luo Cheng and Li Xiaoran were wearing lavish clothes, he said obsequiously, “They’re mine, all mine!”
“You’re spouting nonsense. These shops were my mother’s dowry for me. How did they become yours?” Another woman raised her eyebrows and retorted angrily.
Li Xiaoran looked at the woman and then at the man. In the end, she shook her head.
“Who has the deed to this shop?” Li Xiaoran asked.
This time, the man’s expression immediately changed.
The deed wasn’t in his hands, let alone his name.
The man secretly resented his mother for being so biased and giving these shops to his sister.
He was the eldest son in the family. Why did she give these shops to his sister?
When the woman heard Li Xiaoran’s words, she walked forward.
“The deed is with me! The four shops here are all connected. I’m going to marry someone in Jiangnan soon. These shops will be squandered by my good-for-nothing brother, so I plan to sell them! If you’re interested in buying them, why don’t we talk inside?!”
After Li Xiaoran and Luo Cheng exchanged looks, they walked into the shop at the same time.
“Wait, stop! Do you know who I am?”
Luo Cheng originally wanted to ignore him, but after hearing this man’s words, he stopped.
Seeing that Luo Cheng had stopped, Li Xiaoran also stopped.
“Now that you mention it, I’m suddenly interested. Who exactly are you?”
When the man saw Luo Cheng stop, he immediately said proudly, “I’m the second prince’s brother! The second prince values me very much. As long as I give the word, the two of you will suffer! I advise you to be tactful and not buy this shop. Otherwise, your entire family will suffer!” Luo Cheng was amused when he heard this.
“You’re welcome to bring disaster to my entire family!”
When Li Xiaoran heard this, she couldn’t help but laugh.
Although Luo Cheng had been removed from the family, seriously speaking, his family was the royal family!
To let the second prince deal with his own clansmen, this person was really naive!
Of course, the other party dared to speak so arrogantly because he didn’t know Luo Cheng’s identity. It seemed that he often bullied people around in the name of the second prince!
Luo Cheng also realized this and glanced at the man.
“If I were you, I would invite the second prince over now to support you!” With that, Luo Cheng turned around and led Li Xiaoran into the shop.
The woman followed them in without looking at her brother.
The man cursed out loud and wanted to chase after them, but he was stopped by Zi Cheng and Zi Cheng.
“Aren’t you the second prince’s brother? What are you holding back for? Hurry up and ask the second prince to stand up for you!” Zi Cheng looked at the man in front of him as he teased, “That’s the second prince! I feel so afraid just thinking about him!”
The man looked at Zi Cheng and Zi Zheng in confusion. Why did he feel that these two people didn’t look afraid at all?
When did the Second Prince’s name become so ineffective?
Before the man could figure it out, Zi Cheng pushed him out.
“Go away. My young master wants to discuss business here. Are you trying to eavesdrop? If you don’t leave, I’ll capture you and hang you on a tree for a few days!”
When the man heard this, he quickly ran away.
After all, the other party wasn’t even afraid of the Second Prince, so he had no other choice.
He couldn’t actually run to the second prince to tattletale!
If the Second Prince knew that he was using his name to do these sorts of things outside, he might capture him and beat him up.. The gains wouldn’t make up for the losses!
