Chapter 817 817: The Creatures at the Stairwell
“Oh… You will find that out when you see Jing Lu with your own eyes. Just be patient.”
Cheng Shuyu immediately stood up from the sofa and screamed at Ma’am Bai, “No way! I can’t wait any longer! Since you already got someone to inform them, Xiao Lu would have already known that I’m here and she will definitely want to see me! What did you do to her?! Where is she?! I want to see her now! Immediately! Right now!”
With that said, she rushed toward the basement.
Ma’am Bai and the butler did not stop her, allowing her into the basement. She only managed to walk halfway down the stairs when she took a turn and knocked into a huge, furry creature. When she stopped to see what it was, she could see a pair of green eyes staring at her.
The creature’s mouth opened and there was a bad smell that came from its mouth. She could also see the sharp fangs that still had blood dribbling from them, along with fresh animal flesh.
A large drop of saliva fell onto Cheng Shuyu’s arms, causing her to shriek in fear. She fell to the ground before crawling up the staircase and returning to the living hall.
Even when she was already in the living hall, the fear that was buried deep inside her was still there. Cheng Shuyu continued screaming but the rest of the people inside the mansion remained extremely calm.
Until now, Cheng Shuyu finally realized that everyone in this mansion was terrifying.
“You- All of you – What did you do to my daughter?! Why did you lock her underground with those monsters down there?! This is illegal! I- I will sue you! I will sue the Di family!”
Cheng Shuyu no longer cared about the consequences and started screaming at Ma’am Bai.
Ma’am Bai, on the other hand, wasn’t even worried about this woman, who came from nowhere. So what if she found out about what had happened to Jing Lu? So what if she realized that they were working for the Di family?
In fact, even if there were no grudges, the Di family would still be able to ruin them without any reason. Not to mention that this woman was the one who swapped their daughter away.
Not only did she take away their daughter, she even tortured their daughter? Was there anything else that she could do about it now?
She should only expect the worst to happen.
So what if she knew about their relationship with the Di family?
“Ma’am Jing, you’re just ruining yourself! You’re the one who came up with the shitty idea in order to get your daughter into our family. You cost us a marriage with the Zhang family. I am supposed to be the one to sue you, but you’re doing it instead? You’re an interesting woman. You can do as you like since I really want to sue that slutty daughter of yours, who refuses to leave my house!”
“Bring Jing Lu to me now!”
At that moment, no matter what Wu Minjun said, Cheng Shuyu would no longer believe her, screaming for them to hand over her daughter.
“You better watch your manners while talking to my mother!”
Suddenly, a man’s voice appeared from behind her and Cheng Shuyu quickly turned around.
It was already noon but Bai Tu was still dressed in a bathrobe. From how it was open in the center, she could see a few bruises on his chest.
When she saw Bai Tu, Cheng Shuyu was stunned, regretting what she did.
She was an experienced woman and she quickly understood what could have caused the marks on Bai Tu.
If their relationship was this good… Then…
Cheng Shuyu awkwardly looked at Bai Tu before looking back at Wu Minjun, who was still looking elegant. She wanted to apologize but she didn’t know if she should or not.
Just when she wanted to explain herself, Bai Tu returned to the basement and Cheng Shuyu quickly followed after him, knowing that her daughter would be there.
