Chapter 184 This time

However, judging from the few words I heard tonight, it seems that the relationship between Mrs. Zhang and Zhang Zhaohai is not close.

Ning Zhishui was worried, but not much, because even if someone did see something, they would only suspect Zuifenglou and Taoran, but there would be no direct evidence.

As long as there is no evidence and Zhang Zhaohai dies again, it is a death without symptom.

At worst, when you find something is wrong, you will have Tao Ran sent out.

Ning Zhishui was deep in thought when he heard the sound of a search coming from the Zhang Mansion, as if they were questioning people on the roadside.

Ning Zhishui frowned. She was from Zui Feng Tower. If possible, it was best not to be involved in tonight's events, otherwise it might be too much of a coincidence if checked afterwards.

Just find a place to hide first.

Ning Zhishui looked around, wanting to see if there were any restaurants.

"Ning Zhishui?"

A voice of surprise suddenly sounded. Ning Zhishui raised his head in confusion and saw a person in a small building in front of him on the left.

He was at the window on the second floor, looking out with the window half open. When he saw himself, he raised the cup in his hand. Although the sound was a little far away, it was clear enough.

That's... Zhong Qiaonan!

Ning Zhishui was shocked.

When did this person see himself?

But then he thought about it, after leaving Zhang's Mansion, he turned a few corners before reaching this street. Even if he saw him, he would not have anything to do with her and Zhang's Mansion.

As long as he didn't get caught and got away with it, Ning Zhishui felt relieved after thinking about it.

"Friend Zhong Dao." Ning Zhishui raised his head and clasped his fists.

"I'm having a small gathering with my friends, why don't we come up and sit down?" Zhong Qiaonan asked.

"Alright."

Ning Zhishui smiled and agreed.

When he went upstairs, he saw Zhong Qiaonan sitting at the same table with two male cultivators, enjoying tea. The two men were slightly older than him, and they looked quite wealthy in their dress.

"Let me introduce, this is fellow Taoist Ning Zhishui, the one who once saved my sister Qiao Qian. Zhishui, these two are brothers Chang Qing and Li Kuang, both of whom have been my friends for many years." Zhong Qiaonan said .

Ning Zhishui felt a little weird in her heart, because the two of them were Taoist friends before, but his sudden familiarity today made her feel a little uncomfortable.

But it was only for that moment. I guess it was just for the convenience of introducing it to friends.

She didn't show it, just greeted the two people as usual.

"It turns out that this is Fellow Daoist Ning. Unexpectedly, he is younger than we thought." Chang Qing said.

"Yes, Qiao Nan, you need to thank fellow Taoist Ning for your sister's matter." Li Kuang also said.

Ning Zhishui smiled, "It's just a little effort. I didn't do anything. I just reminded them that they bought the medicine themselves."

"You can't say that. Without you, my little sister's affairs would be in trouble, so I should thank you properly." Zhong Qiaonan raised his glass seriously, "Why don't I have tea instead of wine and thank you formally. "

Ning Zhishui laughed. Seeing him raising his glass, he happily poured himself a glass, "Okay, then I can't mention this glass again..."

Her voice paused and her expression suddenly changed. Zhong Qiaonan was about to drink tea, but suddenly a beautiful white hand blocked the mouth of his cup, and then the hand snatched his cup and put it to his nose to smell it.

Upon hearing this, Ning Zhishui's face darkened.

She slammed the two cups of tea on the table, "You can't drink the tea, it contains medicine."

Zhong Qiaonan was stunned, shocked and confused.

Ning Zhishui looked at the expressions of the two people opposite him and found the panic in their expressions, "Two fellow Taoists, don't you want to explain?"

Zhong Qiaonan realized what had happened, took her arm to block her behind her, and asked the other person in a deep voice, "Brother Chang, Brother Li, what do you mean?"

The two people looked at each other with ugly expressions on their faces. They probably didn't expect such a change at all.

"Ahem, well, we don't understand what you are talking about." Chang Qing frowned, "There's something wrong with this tea? I didn't expect this teahouse to fool its guests like this! I had to call someone to ask. It’s so clear!”

While speaking, his hand was pressed on his tea cup, as if he wanted to secretly pour the tea away.

Li Kuang next to him was even more direct. He stretched out his sleeves and wanted to overturn the cup, but Zhong Qiaonan was one step ahead of him and took his cup over and handed it to Ning Zhishui.

Ning Zhishui took a whiff and said, "His myrrh."

Zhong Qiaonan couldn't help but laugh, "No wonder you insisted on calling me out tonight, so that's what happened. Why, I didn't partner with you, so you want to harm me?"

His face was already dark, with suppressed anger.

Ning Zhishui's heart moved, and he suddenly remembered an old thing.

In his previous life, Zhong Qiaonan also mentioned that he was stabbed in the back, and said that the first time he suffered a loss was at the hands of two brothers whom he trusted very much. Those two people had been friends with him for seven or eight years. It can be said that they were still half teenagers. Already known each other since then.

But for the sake of profit, they attacked him.

Although he discovered it early and found a way to escape, the incident still gave him a big blow.

At that time, Zhong Qiaonan did not have the maturity and insight into people's hearts that she would later have. At least she still had an innocent heart when it came to acquaintances. It was only after that that she gained a memory and stopped trusting others so foolishly.

Could it be...that this is today?

Zhong Qiaonan didn't go into too much detail about this matter and only mentioned it briefly, so Ning Zhishui was just suspicious and not sure if it was this time.

"It's nothing, Qiao Nan, please listen to our explanation..."

"But you are overthinking it. I have already sold the secret order to someone else. Don't tell me that you drugged me. Even if you point a knife at me, I still won't agree, let alone agree." Zhong Qiaonan said.

As soon as they heard what he said, the faces of the two people became extremely ugly.

"How could it be! Who did you give the secret order to?" Li Kuang asked quickly.

This meant admitting. Zhong Qiaonan couldn't help but smile sarcastically, "Du Lichao."

"You actually sold it to him! Zhong Qiaonan, Du Lichao has never dealt with us, how could you sell it to him!" The two people opposite were furious.

"Otherwise? At least they are willing to calculate the money clearly with me, and give me as much as they want, and even give more. They are very sincere." Zhong Qiaonan crossed his hands on his chest, "What about you? You just want to have a relationship with me, and you want me to give you more." The secret order is given with both hands, do you think I, Zhong Qiaonan, am a fool?"

Both of them looked ugly, "We have been friends for so many years. With such a friendship, you didn't know that you would turn to us, but you actually turned to Du Lichao! Qiao Nan, you forced us to do this!"

"That's right, we don't plan to do anything to you..."

They still want to quibble.
