181 Hua Shang’s True Colors
“I’ve said it before. I’m not from the Li family. If you want revenge, do it!” Kong Rui frowned when she heard Mr. Hua’s words.
Did Mr. Hua not believe her?
Mr. Hua bowed to Kong Rui again. “Since you really have nothing to do with the Li family, the Hua family will definitely serve you with all our might in the future! Today, I swear on the foundation of the Hua family that if I violate this oath, I will definitely die a horrible death!”
“Mr. Hua, you’re being too serious!” Kong Rui said softly, then said with a smile, “This place isn’t the foundation of the Hua family, right?”
Hearing Kong Rui’s question, Mr. Hua looked slightly embarrassed.
“What do you mean?” Mr. Hua still tried his best to hide his embarrassment.
At this moment, Hua Shang continued, “How did you know?”
Kong Rui shrugged. “First of all, although I owe the Hua family a favor, it’s not so great that the Hua family needs to repay the favor at the price of your foundation. Secondly, Mr. Hua just tested me on whether I would stop the Hua family from taking revenge.”
As Kong Rui spoke, she glanced at the dark room. “What’s locked in here is probably the legendary divine beast that the Hua family raises, the Reneged Beast, right?”
When he heard Kong Rui’s words, Hua Shang’s veil trembled, as if he was secretly laughing.
Mr. Hua looked extremely embarrassed.
Hua Shang nodded and said, “That’s right! The Reneged Beast is indeed inside. Please don’t mind my uncle’s rude actions!”
Kong Rui shook her head and said indifferently, “It’s said that the Reneged Beast can distinguish between truth and lies. Seems like the rumors are true! I can understand that you guys don’t trust me and it��s reasonable that you want to test me! As for the oath you mentioned, I’ll pretend that I didn’t hear it. You don’t have to take it to heart. Since I’ve passed the test and I really have other things to do, I’ll be leaving now!”
At this moment, Mr. Hua said again, “Benefactor, please wait!”
This time, not to mention Kong Rui, even Hua Shang’s tone was a little unpleasant.
“Second Uncle, what do you want now?!” Hua Shang growled. Because he was anxious, he couldn’t help but cough a few times.
When Mr. Hua saw that Hua Shang was almost gasping for air, an anxious expression appeared on his face.
When Kong Rui saw this, she gritted her teeth and took out a pill that the Poison Master had given her to treat thirst.
She lifted her bamboo hat and stuffed the pill into Hua Shang’s mouth.
Seeing Kong Rui’s swift movements, Mr. Hua wanted to stop her, but it was too late.
“Benefactor, this is…” Mr. Hua looked like he wanted to say something but hesitated, since he was afraid that Kong Rui would get angry with him and attack Hua Shang.
Kong Rui ignored Mr. Hua and tapped a few major acupuncture points on Hua Shang’s body to quickly release the medicinal effect.
As the medicine took effect, Hua Shang, who had almost fainted from coughing, seemed to be much better.
Kong Rui lifted his veil. At this moment, Hua Shang’s complexion gradually returned to normal.
Kong Rui looked at Hua Shang in surprise.
He was tall and strong, but his face was surprisingly smooth and delicate.
His gorgeous eyes were covered by his long and thick eyelashes. His rosy mouth was delicate and moist, but it looked a little pale because of his chronic illness.
When Kong Rui saw Hua Xing back then, although she looked terrifying when she was covered in blood, her beautiful face was still breathtaking.
From the looks of it, a beautiful appearance was probably a common characteristic of the Hua family.
