Gu Fei calmed down and climbed in through the window.
She squinted her eyes and looked around. The room was very small. There was only a table, a bed, and two chairs.
There were two people lying on the bed. Gu Fei got closer and looked. Although the light was dim, she could still tell that the man lying outside was Er Laizi, with a cloth wrapped around his head.
She turned her wrist and a dagger appeared in her hand. She covered Er Laizi’s mouth with one hand and stabbed Er Laizi’s arm with the dagger.
Er Laizi woke up immediately, opened his eyes, and saw a figure in front of him. He wanted to scream instinctively, but Gu Fei covered his mouth, blocking his voice in his throat.
Gu Fei lowered her voice and said: “Don’t shout. If you shout, I can’t hold the dagger in my hand.”
“I came here just to ask you a few questions. If you answer them obediently, I won’t kill you.”
Xiao Yu lay on the roof, listening carefully to the movements below.
It was very quiet at night, and he could hear Gu Fei’s words.
Er Laizi heard her voice and then saw that it was Gu Fei.
He was panicked for a moment. This time he really met a tough guy, and he didn’t know how she got here.
His eyes were wide open, and he blinked repeatedly to show his agreement.
Gu Fei said softly: “You agreed not to scream, so I will let go.”
After letting go, Er Laizi’s eyes fell on the dagger in Gu Fei’s hand, which was shining with cold light. The dagger swayed in front of his eyelids, and Er Laizi dared not move.
Gu Fei said slowly: “I just want to ask you, who is the person who ordered you to make trouble in my store?”
Xiao Yu on the roof was stunned when he heard it. Make trouble?
Did someone go to her store to make trouble?
She ran here in the middle of the night just for this?
Er Laizi’s voice was filled with fear: “I, I can’t say it. If I say it, that person won’t let me go.”
Gu Fei took the dagger and gently poked Er Laizi’s face: “If you don’t say it, you will die now. If you say it, you may not die. I think everyone knows how to choose.”
Er Laizi was poked by the tip of the knife, and a chill seemed to pass from the tip of the knife to the bottom of his heart: “I say, I say, that person is the housekeeper of Prince Qi Mansion.”
Gu Fei frowned: “What’s his surname and name?”
“I’m afraid there is more than one housekeeper in the Qi Wang Mansion. Who knows who you are talking about?”
Er Laizi hurriedly said: “There is only one housekeeper, his surname is Wu, and his name is Dahai.”
Xiao Yu was confused. Why did Housekeeper Wu let people cause trouble for Xiao Fei?
“Did you tell him what I told you to tell him yesterday?”
Er Laizi stuttered, “No, no, I was thinking of taking your money first and then going to him to claim the reward.”
Gu Fei patted his face with a dagger: “You see, you just don’t listen. If you had told him, you might not have had this experience today.”
“Then do you know why Housekeeper Wu did this?”
Er Laizi nodded vigorously, the flesh on his chin squeezed into a ball: “I know, he has a grudge against my eldest brother, he doesn’t want my eldest brother to have a good life.”
Gu Fei said coldly, “If there is a grudge, just kill him. I think that Old Man Huang is living a good life. Why don’t you mess with him instead of messing with these tenants? What do you mean by this?”
“Are you mentally ill?”
Er Laizi shook his head repeatedly: “No, no, Housekeeper Wu swore that he would never do anything to my eldest brother, but he didn’t want my eldest brother to live a good life, so he could only mess with these tenants.”
Gu Fei snorted: “Crazy!”
“Where does Housekeeper Wu live?”
