317 A Troubled Place

“That’s right, Village Chief Pang. Why? Is it strange for me to go out? Or can’t I go out at night in the village?”

Pang Shuo hurriedly revealed a smile and his eyebrows slowly curled up. “Look at what you’re saying. You’re our esteemed guest. You can go out if you want. Who dares to stop you? It’s just that it’s not safe to travel at night in the village. I’m just worried about you. If anything happens to you in the village, our entire village will be finished.”

Shan Yue nodded slightly. “Thank you, then. Nothing happened to me.”

When Pang Shuo turned around, he narrowed his eyes and immediately frowned. He had clearly instructed that if any of the three of them did anything, be it going out, going somewhere, or seeing anyone, they had to report it to him. But Shan Yue had gone out, and he actually did not know. A bad feeling arose in Pang Shuo’s heart.

After returning, Shan Yue sat between Zhou Xuan and Zhang Luo and told them everything she had seen. She even took out her phone and showed them the photos of the Pang residence.

Zhang Luo frowned and smiled. “This is great. No matter how good Pang Shuo is and how popular he is in the village, he probably won’t be able to defend himself in front of absolute evidence. Previously, I was blinded by his kindness. It seems that it’s really true that you can’t judge a book by its cover. If not for Miss Shan, I’m afraid we would never have been able to remove the wolf skin he was wearing.”

Zhou Xuan raised his exquisite eyes slightly, coldness emitting from it. “Since we already have evidence in our hands and the photos in our hands are enough to confirm the fact that Pang Shuo has embezzled the charity fund, the most important thing now is to leave this troublesome place as soon as possible. After all, he still has a high prestige in the village and we don’t have many people with us. With such a huge difference in numbers, once he finds out that we’ve noticed something, he might choose to fight to the death in order to survive.”

“President Zhou is right. Now, we should try our best to maintain our usual behavior and not do anything abnormal.” Shan Yue’s tone was calm, and her expression was very natural. “President Zhou, inform your people that we should leave tonight without delay.”

Zhou Xuan turned around and his cold eyes met He Sherng’s eyes. He Sheng immediately understood and turned around to make arrangements.

At the same time, Pang Shuo, who was in his room, also received news from outside. The people at the village entrance saw that Shan Yue was walking over from the east of the village when she returned. Moreover, the people at home also noticed that Zhou Xuan’s subordinates were packing up, as if they were about to leave.

Connecting everything, a sense of fear instantly welled up in him.

“In just two days, if they didn’t find anything, they couldn’t have left so suddenly in the middle of the night. The woman who just returned must have seen something at the haunted house that made them make the next decision. Everything we did might have been exposed. If that’s the case, we have to be prepared for the worst.” n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

There was no time for Pang Shuo to think too much. He immediately called his subordinates over. “Inform all the surrounding brothers to come to Pang Village tonight and surround the village outside. We can’t let a fly go. I want them to know that there’s only one outcome for blocking my path to wealth, and that’s death.”

“Although I relied on them to have my current life, since their hands have already crossed the line, don’t blame me for being rude. They can only blame themselves for being unlucky.”

After saying that, Pang Shuo immediately went to the kitchen and found the food that was about to be served. He added a trace of laxative to every dish. Then, Pang Shuo, who had also served the food, pretended that he did not know anything. He smiled so that everyone would lower their guard.

In order not to be asked to stay for dinner, Pang Shuo left immediately after putting down the dishes.

Just as everyone was about to move their chopsticks, a familiar smell surrounded Shan Yue’s nose and lips. In a fraction of a second, Shan Yue immediately smelled the unique smell of laxatives.
