Step Aside, My CEO Ex-Husband!-Chapter 616 - 617 Test 3

As long as we can leave that place, even just a day of freedom would be enough.

They didn’t want to stay in that terrifying place.

"What kind of drug is it?" Huo Shaohua asked.

"It’s an ancestral drug from the Ai Family, specially targeting women!"

"Only targeting women?"

"Yes, if we don’t take the antidote on time, our faces and bodies will..."

"Got it!" Huo Shaohua interrupted, not wanting to hear more. He felt extremely disgusted!

"What did you do to Xingyun?" Li Zhiting’s sharp gaze pierced through them.

Huo Shaohua’s keen eyes scanned the women in front of him.

If they admitted to harming Xingyun...

No matter what seductive answers they offered, he wouldn’t accept them!

They must die! 𝐟𝕣𝗲𝕖𝕨𝗲𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝗲𝚕.𝗰𝚘𝐦

"I hypnotized her, but didn’t harm her."

"I’ll help you leave the Ai Family, but the rest depends on you." Huo Shaohua stood up and walked towards the staircase, leaving the basement.

"Keep an eye on them." Li Zhiting instructed Xi Lin, then lifted his foot and headed towards the staircase, leaving the basement.

Song Yi was anxious living in the old house, not knowing what Chen had found out.

She called the hospital to find her attending physician, but the hospital staff said the doctor was on vacation.

This made her even more uneasy, unable to find the doctor.

She didn’t know what Chen had found, or if he had told Grandma.

All of this remained unknown. Chen was dead, and the doctor was on vacation.

Now Grandma was the only one left, and she had to take the risk to test her.

She needed to see how much Grandma knew, to figure out the next step.

Close to lunchtime, Song Yi went to the kitchen to check if lunch was almost ready.

She cheered herself up inwardly, then went upstairs to the door of Grandma’s room.

The door to the room was open, and she stood hesitantly at the entrance.

Her legs were weak from fear and anxiety, and her mind flashed back to those bloody photos of Chen...

She took several deep breaths, leaning against the wall to calm herself.

She couldn’t panic! Chen’s death had nothing to do with her.

Chen was killed by Grandma. If Grandma hadn’t meddled and had Chen follow her...

Chen wouldn’t have been hit by that car...

It was Grandma who caused Chen’s death, it had nothing to do with her...

She closed her eyes, adjusted her mindset, and put on a sweet smile.

She stepped forward and knocked on the door. "Grandma, may I come in?"

"Come in."

Song Yi walked into Grandma’s room. She had been with Shaohua for many years.

She had only been in Grandma’s room twice; today was the third time!

Every time she walked in, there was always a creepy feeling.

There were many antiques in the room, like the brush and inkstone on Grandma’s desk, which used to belong to Shaohua’s grandfather.

And the wooden wardrobe that Grandma had, which was said to have been passed down from the period of the Republic by Mrs. Huo.

From the period of the Republic to now, several ladies had died, but this wardrobe was still passed down.

Just thinking about it gave her chills...

What scared her the most were Grandma’s embroidered shoes!

They looked so frightening to her...

She couldn’t help but think of those deceased Huo ladies, wondering if they had also worn these shoes.

Grandma was surprised that Song Yi would take the initiative to find her, as Song Yi was usually afraid to come to her room.

It was surprising that she had come today, was she not scared anymore?

Grandma wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes with a small handkerchief, then looked up at Song Yi. "What can I do for you?"

"Grandma, what’s wrong? Why are you crying?" Song Yi overcame her fear and walked towards Grandma, sitting down beside her and asking with concern.

Her eyes glanced at the photos on the wall, making her feel even more scared!

There were photos of Grandpa and Shaohua’s parents hanging on the wall.
