At dawn, Shang Guanglei and Jiang Ao left together.

Xiong Qingqing was drowsy on the sofa, while Xu Lingze had been studying the ancient book.

"Qingqing, why did you ask Monk Guanglei Jiang Ao to say those things?" Xu Lingze asked.

Xiong Qingqing opened his hazy eyes, smiled and said, "That bastard Jiangshang, it's too cheap to bring him to justice. I want everyone closest to him to know what kind of guy he is."

Xu Lingze also smiled, "Yeah... He was too cheap, and he is also one of the culprits. A murderer can still occupy the property of the Qiu family and enjoy wealth by stepping on the bones of his dead wife."

"Jiang Ao has always been bullying Jiang Qi because of Jiang Shangshang's favor. It's not a bad thing for her to know these things, anyway, she already knows. If she keeps her word and bullies Jiang Qi in the future, she has to weigh it carefully." Xiong Qingqing said.

"So, there is also a threat in your words, right?" Xu Lingze said.

"Well, we won't be able to help Jiang Qi if she gets bullied again in the future. We can only frighten Shang Guanglei and Jiang Ao today to make them fearful." Xiong Qingqing said.

Xu Lingze nodded, and said with a smile, "I didn't expect that you also learned to think about the future."

"Why, should I be a stunned young man?" Xiong Qingqing was a little dissatisfied.

"You have always been a stunned young man, but you have made great progress in the last few missions, which is worthy of praise." Xu Lingze said, giving Xiong Qingqing a thumbs up.

Xiong Qingqing glanced at him and said with a smile: "Come on, you, Old Xu, you have to remember me, I have saved you many times."

"No problem, I can promise you with my body." Xu Lingze smiled.

"That's unnecessary..."

After Xiong Qingqing finished speaking, he yawned and closed his eyes again.

Xu Lingze glanced at her with a bitter smile on his face.

……

Shang Guanglei and Jiang Ao went upstairs and came to the "ward" where Jiangshui and Jin Hui lived.

Although wearing earplugs, the two people who were tied up still heard some movement and looked at them fiercely.

Jiang Ao was taken aback, and quickly hugged Shang Guanglei's arm, asking, "What's going on?"

"Have you forgotten? On the first night when the young master of the Leng family came, when you saw them, they looked like this." Shang Guanglei said.

Recalling what happened that night, Jiang Ao was a little scared, and asked again: "Why did it become like this?"

"Because of the power of the strange talk, there should be no more tomorrow night." Shang Guanglei said.

"But...but isn't Steward Tao dead?" Jiang Ao lowered his voice, and asked again: "The treasure map was also put away by Xu Lingze and the others. Why is it still like this?"

Shang Guanglei thought for a while and said, "Maybe it's because the power of strange talk has not completely disappeared. Isn't Leng Zongming also recovered?"

Jiang Ao frowned, and said again: "Cousin, what if Mom and Dad haven't recovered tonight?"

Shang Guanglei sighed, "I don't know either, I'll ask Xu Lingze and Xiong Qingqing later."

"Ah."

Jiang Ao nodded, glanced at Jiangshang monk Jin Hui, then quickly turned his head away.

It was really hard for her to accept that her biological parents had become like this.

"Don't be afraid, in fact, on the second night when they came, you became one of them just like your aunt and uncle." Shang Guanglei said.

"Ah?" Jiang Ao was terrified, his eyes widened in disbelief.

"The next day you told me that your body hurts because of this." Shang Guanglei said, and sat down on the chair beside him.

Jiang Ao also quickly sat down, continued to hug his arm, and asked, "Cousin, what's going on?"

"On the first night, the reason why you were not like aunt and them was because you didn't fall asleep. So last night after dinner, Xu Lingze asked you this question on purpose. You didn't intend to sleep last night either. To be on the safe side, I took you downstairs so that you wouldn't bump into the secrets of aunt and uncle, or be accidentally hurt." Shang Guanglei said.

"I... I also became like this that night?" Jiang Ao's mind is full of thoughts now, and he is turning into a ghost.

"Okay, don't think about it so much, the matter is over." Shang Guanglei said.

Jiang Ao shed tears and cried, "I'm so stupid... I even scolded Xiong Qingqing..."

Shang Guanglei sighed softly, but did not answer.

"Cousin, Dad... How could he be a murderer? I always thought that Dad was a great person, but I didn't expect... I didn't expect that it was not the case." Jiang Ao cried.

Thinking of what Xiong Qingqing said, Shang Guanglei sighed again, frowning to comfort him: "Sister Ao, stop crying. It doesn't matter whether uncle is a murderer or not, you just need to remember how good he was to you."

Jiang Ao shook his head, "I am my father's daughter, and my sister is also my father's daughter. I am really scared, afraid that my father will treat me like that one day..."

"What nonsense! No way!" Shang Guanglei reprimanded in a deep voice.

"Why did Dad treat my sister like that? My sister is his own daughter! Why... Could it be because my sister looks a lot like Aunt Qiu?" Jiang Ao fell into doubt and entanglement.

Shang Guanglei ignored her, at this moment, his heart was not very peaceful.

"If I knew it was like this, I would rather fall asleep last night and turn it into a strange story, and I don't want to know such a cruel fact... Cousin, what should I do in the days to come..."

Jiang Ao kept crying, and Shang Guanglei's heart became more and more chaotic.

After a while, Shang Guanglei persuaded: "Sister Ao, don't marry the young master of the Leng family, he is not a good person. I will tell you about these things in the future."

"Cousin, tell me now, I can't wait for a moment." Jiang Ao said.

"Didn't you just say that you would rather become a strange story than know these cruel realities? Why are you so anxious now?" Shang Guanglei asked.

"I..." Jiang Ao lowered his head, "I don't know either, I'm afraid of knowing more cruel truths, and I'm afraid that I will be kept in the dark and look like a fool."

"Okay, don't worry about it." Shang Guanglei said.

Seeing that the sky was getting brighter, Shang Jinhui and Jiang Youyou slowly closed their eyes.

Shang Guanglei stepped forward, made sure they were asleep, and then untied the ropes on them.

"Sister Ao, go back to sleep first, don't stay up." Shang Guanglei said.

Jiang Ao shook his head, "I can't sleep. Cousin, let's go find Xu Lingze again and ask his parents, as well as me, if there is any risk of turning into a strange story."

"Don't worry, they should be sleeping now. The two surgeons will come later, and I will stay here to watch." Shang Guanglei said.

"Then I will accompany you." Jiang Ao said.

"It's up to you." After Shang Guanglei finished speaking, he sat down lazily in front of the chair beside the bed.

Jiang Ao drooped his eyes and said regretfully: "Cousin, I'm sorry, I also said a lot of excessive things to you."

"It's okay." Shang Guanglei responded lightly, and he didn't care about it at first.
