After Descending the Mountain, Seven Big Brothers Spoil Me-Chapter 1134: Returning the Favor with Their Own Methods

The young girl’s eyes suddenly lit up like lightbulbs, so bright that even if Shao Kang and his daughter tried not to notice, they couldn’t help but see it. Now, they not only noticed but also understood her intentions.

Shao Kang cleared his throat and glanced at Shao Shanshan. Thinking of Qin Er, Shao Shanshan’s eyes flickered slightly. Although her face didn’t change much, father and daughter shared a deep bond, and Shao Kang could still detect something from her expression. He immediately chuckled with amusement.

He didn’t push the matter further. After all, the younger generation had their own fate to manage. He just hoped his daughter could find someone she truly loved and spend her life with. As for the rest, they could handle it themselves.

Zhouzhou thought the same way. Sometimes, rushing things didn’t help. The more outsiders meddled, the more likely they were to ruin a good match.

With this in mind, Zhouzhou quietly calculated something in her head, her eyes suddenly brightening even more. Hehe, there was no need for her to do anything; those two would likely be together soon enough!

As she thought about this, Zhouzhou’s eyes sparkled, her thoughts drifting to the wedding feast. It had been a while since she had been to one. She was already salivating at the thought of it. She quickly grabbed her bowl and began eating, suppressing her hunger. It wouldn’t be long before she could eat her fill at the wedding banquet—how exciting!

The young girl suddenly grinned mischievously, making Shao Shanshan glance at her a few more times. She was quite pretty, but she always had this silly, clueless look on her face.

Sighing, Shao Shanshan thought, "Well, she’s pretty, that’s all that matters. It’s normal not to have both beauty and brains."

If Zhouzhou had heard her thoughts, she would have protested loudly. She, Qin Fugui, was a smart cookie! Her mind worked just fine!

Before she could get too caught up in her own thoughts, Qin Xi called with an update on the interrogation of He Ping and the others.

At first, they had been putting up a strong front, but then Qin Xi used a strategy of sowing discord between them, telling He Ping that Gu Qian had already confessed everything. Gu Qian, in turn, confirmed it, and soon, they were all fighting among themselves, spilling the truth.

"They said the poison came from a customer He Ping met while working. That customer was from the Miao Border."

That piece of information matched up perfectly. Zhouzhou looked up at the sky, still waiting for Merits to appear, but they hadn’t been granted yet. Did this mean she would have to personally visit the Miao Border?

While she was pondering, Qin Xi added, "It seems the customer had intended to poison Shao Shanshan with the curse."

What? Zhouzhou blinked in surprise, looking at Shao Shanshan. Shao Shanshan’s face immediately darkened. Qin Xi continued, "He Ping said the person followed him for days and only gave him the curse when it was just him and Shao Shanshan alone."

In fact, Shao Shanshan and He Ping hadn’t interacted much before. When Shao Shanshan was in college, she had started taking on some responsibilities at Shao Industries, while He Ping was busy with his part-time job. Their only interaction was when He Ping worked as an intern at Shao Industries one summer, which was when Shao Shanshan started developing feelings for him. Soon after, she became persistent in her pursuit of him.

After hearing Qin Xi’s words, Shao Shanshan’s face turned ice-cold. She wasn’t a fool and hadn’t forgotten everything. Now, she could see the situation more clearly. It was obvious that He Ping had done this intentionally.

The whole "high-minded, uninterested in money" persona was just a cover. He had known she was cursed and kept acting like everything was fine because he was sure she wouldn’t abandon him, no matter what he did.

Hmph. What a disgusting man, trying to have it both ways—caring about her wealth while maintaining a false image.

What was even more disgusting was the person who had given him the curse. Were they targeting her or the entire Shao family?

Shao Kang was also considering this, both of them furrowing their brows deeply.

Zhouzhou thought for a moment and then patted her head. "Forget it. Let’s just capture the person and ask them directly."

Why overthink things when action could solve the problem?

Shao Kang frowned. "But how? It’s been four or five years."

Zhouzhou thought for a moment, her gaze accidentally falling on the injury on Shao Shanshan’s wrist, and suddenly her eyes brightened. "Got it!" She pulled a bamboo tube from her bag.

Inside was the Love Bug she had extracted from Shao Shanshan’s body. According to the books, Love Bugs were cultivated over several years and needed to be fed with the blood of the person who raised them. The bug would carry the person’s scent, making it easier to track.

She took a talisman and collected the bug’s scent, placing it on her Compass. With a slight movement of her fingertip, the needle slowly pointed in a direction.

It worked! Zhouzhou nodded in satisfaction.

Just as she was about to put the Love Bug away, a sudden thought crossed her mind, and she turned to look at Gu Qian. "Sister Generous, do you want to take revenge?"

"Of course." Gu Qian didn’t hesitate. "Do you have a plan?"

Zhouzhou flashed a sly smile and whispered something in her ear.

Gu Qian’s lips also curled into a smile, her gaze lingering on Zhouzhou with a hint of admiration. The young girl was innocent-looking on the outside but had a rather dark side on the inside.

She was like a black sesame-filled dumpling, but Gu Qian liked it.

"I think it will work," she said, smiling.

Hearing this, Zhouzhou’s mood improved even more. She slapped her chest confidently. "Leave it to me!"

Qin Er and Shao Kang, who didn’t know what they were whispering about, exchanged suspicious glances. But Zhouzhou was being mysterious and didn’t say a word.

That evening, a figure silently entered the police station. He Ping and Gu Qian hadn’t finished their interrogation. The two were arguing, trying to push the blame onto each other. Gu Qian even tried to distance herself from the whole situation.

"I didn’t do anything! It was them, the mother and son!"

That’s right. She hadn’t done anything.

He Ping was furious. "You bitch!"

Mrs. He joined in, shouting, "Heartless little slut!"

The insults flew, and the affectionate atmosphere between them was long gone.

Zhouzhou watched them, curling her lips in disdain.

She quietly approached Gu Qian, suddenly shoving the Love Bug into her mouth.

"Ah—!" Gu Qian hadn’t realized what was happening until she felt the bug crawl inside her, making her scream in horror. She instinctively tried to spit it out, but the bug was alive and immediately activated as soon as it entered her body, burrowing deep inside. There was no way she could get rid of it now.

The next moment, Gu Qian turned to He Ping with an overly affectionate gaze.

"Ping, no matter what, I’ll never leave you."

Seeing her drastic change, He Ping was stunned for a moment. When he saw the bamboo tube in Zhouzhou’s hand, everything clicked into place.

The maternal bug was in his body, and the offspring bug was now inside Gu Qian’s. Whoever had the bug would fall in love with him, just like how Shao Shanshan had been obsessed with him back then.

Although He Ping didn’t particularly like Gu Qian now, he felt a rush of satisfaction seeing her act so devoted. He felt free now, and Zhouzhou agreed—let them lock themselves into their own little trap!
