Shi Sen stayed in the room for a while, but didn’t see Shi Yan return. She had a bad feeling.

At this moment, Shi Yan was with Fang Rou and was secretly observing Shi Sen with anxiety.

“Rou Rou, that girl really didn’t drink the water. Fortunately, you were smart enough to come up with a backup plan. Otherwise, we definitely wouldn’t have been able to knock her out,” Shi Yan said to Fang Rou.

“My cousin is different from before, so we have to take things more seriously.” When Fang Rou thought of how Shi Sen had slapped her, she wished her second uncle could take Shi Sen away immediately.

“Is your second uncle’s thing really reliable? He said that there would be a reaction in five minutes. Why isn’t there any movement?” Shi Yan was worried that something would go wrong, so she wanted to go to Shi Sen’s room to take a look.

“Don’t go yet. Opening the door will affect the effect of the knockout incense. There shouldn’t be a problem, since Second Uncle’s friend has been making this for a long time now. There are many types of knockout incense in his hands. The one we used for Shi Sen has the strongest effect, so she’ll stay unconscious for half a day.”

Fang Rou felt that no matter what, Shi Sen wouldn’t discover the colorless and odorless incense she had hidden under the table. As long as Shi Sen didn’t come out of the room, it would definitely work on her.

Clang!

After the sound of a porcelain bowl shattering came from the room, Shi Yan and Fang Rou smiled at each other. Shi Sen must have fainted.

After Shi Yan and Fang Rou walked into the room warily, they found Shi Sen lying beside the table.

Shi Yan was about to speak when Fang Rou stopped her.

“Cousin, what’s wrong?” Fang Rou walked to Shi Sen’s side and shook her arm gently. When she realized that Shi Sen didn’t react, she was relieved.

“She fainted?” Shi Yan asked Fang Rou when she saw that Shi Sen didn’t move.

“I think so.” Fang Rou thought of the smoke that was still lit and hurriedly reached under the table.

After Fang Rou opened the small stove filled with smoke, she was surprised to find that it was empty.

“How is that possible? It’s a huge piece, but it burned out in just a few minutes?” Fang Rou couldn’t believe it, but Shi Sen had indeed fainted.

“Don’t worry about it. It’s fine as long as she faints. Perhaps this incense burns quickly. Hurry up and find your second uncle to bring this girl over while it’s still dark.”

Shi Yan wasn’t worried about the incense. After they knocked Shi Sen out, the incense would be useless anyway.

Fang Rou was a little worried at first, but when she thought about how nothing else would go wrong as long as she handed Shi Sen over to her second uncle, she was relieved.

Shi Yan put the unconscious Shi Sen into a dark-colored sack and tied it tightly, for fear that others would see that Shi Sen was inside.

Chu Liu had been waiting at Uncle Li’s door, but Shi Sen didn’t come out, so Chu Liu was a little puzzled. Shi Sen had a bad relationship with her aunt, so there was no reason for Shi Sen to stay at her house for so long.

Just as she was about to go forward to take a look, she saw Fang Rou rushing out of the courtyard.

Chu Liu hid under the locust tree at the entrance of the Shi family to figure out what Shi Yan’s family was up to. After a while, he saw Shi Tu running over with Fang Rou and immediately became vigilant.

“Why is he here?” Chu Liu muttered softly and had the feeling that Shi Sen might be in trouble.

After looking inside stealthily, Chu Liu saw a sack in Shi Tu’s hand.

“Could Shi Sen be inside?!” Chu Liu’s heart raced. He couldn’t believe that Shi Yan and the others were heartless enough to treat Shi Sen like this.

Worried about Shi Sen’s safety, Chu Liu wanted to stop them, but when he thought of what Shi Yan and Shi Tu had done to Shi Sen, Chu Liu resisted the urge. He planned to catch them red-handed in order to prevent them from denying it. If they dared to hurt Shi Sen, he would let Shi Yan and Shi Tu enter the police station together.

As Chu Liu quietly followed behind Shi Tu, since the sky was getting darker and darker, they didn’t notice. Shi Tu quickly walked deeper into the mountain and only stopped when he approached the entrance of a small cave.

“Second Brother, I’ve brought you your wife!” As Shi Tu shouted into the cave, Chu Liu, who was hiding not far away, heard his words clearly.

Seeing a tall man walk out of the cave quickly, Chu Liu frowned.

Shi Tu was an out-and-out bastard. He actually had such a malicious plan. The second son of the Chen family was publicly recognized as a lunatic by the villagers, so even if he did anything to Shi Sen, no one would hold him responsible.
