Chapter 69: Each has His Own Plan



Chapter 69

Zhi Xia chatted with her and stood up saying she was going to the bathroom.

The room with the secret chamber was next door. She could only take action during this time before the meal started. Otherwise, once the meal started and there were many people around, it would be very inconvenient to find an opportunity.

The big cooking pot was set up in the yard, with two people busily preparing. Another person was squatting next to them helping pick vegetables.

Zhi Xia stood at the door and glanced at the room next door. The door was not locked.

This really showed Lin Zheng\'s cleverness. In this day and age, the best policy was to keep your doors unlocked at night and not pick up things on the road. The other doors were wide open to receive guests. If only this one room was locked, it would really make people suspicious that there was something improper inside.

But it also reassured her that she had made preparations in advance. As long as she put those things from her space inside, it would be fine.

Zhi Xia watched for an opportunity when no one was paying attention to her, then quickly walked forward a few steps and slipped into the room.

The room was filled with so many things, somewhat messy, as if it had just been moved in to deliberately create the mess.

Behind the table hung a portrait of a great man. Zhi Xia calmly put on gloves, walked over and flipped open the portrait. Behind the portrait was a compartment, and inside the compartment was an empty incense burner. After turning the incense burner three times, the 3rd floorboard from the door popped open.

This was an old house. In the past, wealthy families would lay wooden floors in their homes. The yard was not very big because a wall had been erected in the middle to divide one yard into two households.

After all, many families still lived squeezed together in one room across generations. Lin Zheng only had one son, Lin Hao, so he didn\'t dare occupy too much space either.

Moreover, he was a man with secrets, so he had to keep a low profile.

Zhi Xia had a ladder in her space. In the fastest possible time, she put everything into the secret chamber, then put the floorboard back to restore it to its original state.

The difference was that she didn\'t restore the incense burner properly. This section of floor was still slightly raised compared to the others.

Fortunately, it was not obvious unless you looked closely. With just the weight of one person stepping on it, the floorboard would sink down, completely exposing the secret chamber below.

Zhi Xia also left a contingency plan. She opened the box containing the gold bars. With the dark lighting in the secret chamber, as soon as the floor sank, the bright golden light would be very conspicuous from outside.

After doing all this, she didn\'t dare come out until she was sure no one was outside.

Returning to the room, Wang Li asked her, "Why were you gone for so long? Did you find the toilet?"

Zhi Xia nodded, "I found it. It\'s in that corner. Just now there was someone inside so I waited for a while."

Wang Li said gratefully, "Okay, thank you for that. I should have gone to stand guard for you earlier."

Zhi Xia said, "At first I didn\'t think so, but when I was squatting I kept worrying. It was so uncomfortable."

Seeing how harmonious the two of them were, who could have guessed that Zhi Xia was still guarding against the other person?

Standing at the toilet door, Zhi Xia saw Lin Zheng more than once.

At over 50 years old, he had a figure full of professionalism, and didn\'t seem to have the joy of marrying off a daughter-in-law. Occasionally there was a flash of dissatisfaction and sharpness in his eyes.

Their eyes met and Zhi Xia nodded in greeting.

Seeing her standing at the toilet door, Lin Zheng knew what it meant, and didn\'t mind that she hadn\'t come over.

With the sound of laughter and frolicking coming from the new house, it was almost time to start eating.

Zhi Xia and Wang Li were invited into the main room and sat next to the bride. Except for them, this table was all men, including Lin Hao\'s colleagues.

An ZhiAng walked in, frowned when he saw this scene, and deliberately spoke sternly to Zhi Xia, "You\'re still young, you can\'t drink alcohol."

Having said that, he immediately switched to a smiling expression, put his hand on a man\'s shoulder and said, "Brothers, my two younger sisters are underage. If you want to drink, go to the other room to find me. Don\'t bully the girls."

The man jokingly went along with it. An MeiYun then spoke up, "Fourth brother, don\'t worry. These are Ah Hao\'s friends, not undisciplined people."

With everyone watching, An ZhiAng could only nod and tell An MeiYun not to drink too much either, since she still had to make toasts later.

After An ZhiAng left, Wang Li whispered tremblingly to Zhi Xia, "Zhi Xia, are you scared? I\'m afraid of what to do if they insist on making us drink later?"

One task for the female escorts in the wedding entourage was to block drinks for the bride.

Zhi Xia certainly wouldn\'t voluntarily help An MeiYun, but she was afraid their goal wasn\'t An MeiYun but herself.

She had already noticed that the eyes of the men opposite had glanced at her more than once.

After all, Zhi Xia was not as vicious as An MeiYun. She secretly passed a sobering pill to Wang Li under the table and whispered, "Sobering pill. Look for a chance to take it secretly. Later just pretend to faint, or lay your head on the table. They can\'t just pour alcohol directly into you."

Wang Li really had no defenses at all. Fortunately, Zhi Xia didn\'t intend to harm her, otherwise the consequences of swallowing this pill would be unimaginable.

Today was An MeiYun\'s wedding. She wasn\'t stupid enough to openly drug someone when the situation was like this. If Zhi Xia acted too brazenly, even a fool could see something was wrong.

Among the people at this table, two were especially skilled at forcing others to drink. When the conversation reached a certain point, refusing to drink was seen as disrespect.

Sure enough, several men used a wheel tactic to force the two girls to drink. Even with the sobering pill, Wang Li couldn\'t handle it.

After just two drinks, she started feeling dizzy.

Zhi Xia readily accepted every toast. No matter who raised their cup, she would immediately tilt her head back and drink without saying a word. Yet not a single drop of alcohol actually entered her mouth, as it all flowed into her space.

The meal was only half finished when Wang Li couldn\'t take it anymore. She tugged on the corner of Zhi Xia\'s clothes under the table.

She had already asked An MeiYun for help earlier, and An MeiYun had only said something perfunctory that she could tell was just for show.

She now regretted coming. If it wasn\'t for An MeiYun saying she was also innocent, and just based on the rumor about the An family\'s real and fake daughters, she really wouldn\'t have wanted to come. But she had fallen for An MeiYun\'s trap.

A table full of men getting her and another girl drunk, what were they trying to do?

When someone toasted her again, Zhi Xia blocked her mouth to signal Wang Li to duck under the table.

Wang Li glared at her, giving her a "you asked for this" look, and obediently laid her head down on the table.

She finally realized that Zhi Xia could handle the drinking and wasn\'t afraid. She had been drinking steadily for half a day without even a change in expression. Wang Li decided she should just take care of herself first.
