When Yun Jian called her ‘Qing You’, Liu Tie and his children were already surprised.
After all, she was just Liu Xin to them. Come to think about it, however, Qing You had left home for years and she had said that she lived in an assassin organization—it was impossible for her to keep using Liu Xin as her name, thus Liu Tie and the siblings got over it.
Yet, what did Qing You do?
She took a sealed tube that looked like it came from a chemistry experiment, opened it, and poured all its content on Brother Hu. What terrified them came next.
Liu Tie had been a farmer all his life and had always been a virtuous and honest man, enjoying the fruit of his labor. Liu Ziyun and Liu Qi who lived in the farming village too, were not exposed to much. Yet Brother Hu was turned into a pool of blood!
The scene completely baffled the three of them.
“Ah! The bo-body… the body turned into a puddle of blood…” The sight was far more shocking than Brother Hu being shot by Si Yi. If she had not witnessed it personally, Liu Qi probably would not believe something so unrealistic. She gasped aloud before she covered her eyes and began quivering whilst squatting down.
“This…” Liu Tie was alarmed as well.
Liu Ziyun was able to handle the shock better than Liu Qi and Liu Tie, but that was not to say he was any less dumbfounded when he saw it.
“Meimei (Mandarin for younger sister), you…” Liu Ziyun’s mouth was agape in disbelief.
Qing You recapped the vial after pouring the liquid and kept the item back in her bunny sling bag. She then turned around to explain to her family, “Dad, don’t be scared. This is a corpse dissolving liquid. It’ll be fine as long as one doesn’t come in contact with it.”
“Meimei, you carry something so dangerous with you? You…” Liu Ziyun was cut off by Qing You before he could finish.
She smiled and turned to look at her brother. “Ge, it’s fine.”
“Her sling bag was reconstructed with a special material. Even if the liquid in the vial spilled, it won’t drip out from the bag,” Yun Jian helped to explain as she went to Qing You.
Yun Yi who stood next to Qing You was as dumbstruck as the girl’s family while Si Yi covered Yun Zhu’s eyes calmly, preventing the boy from watching the gory scene just now. Of course, Si Yi himself remained unfazed without even a flicker of his eyes.
“Heh heh.” Qing You turned to chuckle at Yun Jian, her delicate baby face looking stunning.
While Liu Tie and her siblings were still flabbergasted, Qing You patted her bulging little sling bag and teased Yun Jian, “Sister Jian, the corpse dissolving liquid is precious. Someone offered 10 million US dollars back then and I couldn’t bring myself to sell it. You’ve got to reward me handsomely!”
The corpse dissolving liquid was no doubt the best solution to destroy the dead body and get rid of any evidence.
“You can pick any company under my name,” Yun Jian replied with a smile and her arms crossed in front of her.
The conversation between Yun Jian and Qing You bewildered Yun Yi who did not understand the situation while Si Yi remained indifferent. Liu Tie and his children, however, were shell-shocked.
What?
The thing called corpse dissolving liquid that Qing You held just now was worth 10 million US dollars! This was US dollars they were talking about!
Families in 1998’s Luo Village lived a simple life. A few hundred yuan could last them a full month.
A corpse dissolving liquid was 10 million US dollars? Liu Tie and his children could not even start to imagine it.
