Chapter 521: Things Have Gone Too Far

t really hurt a child. I just want her to experience what it feels like to be utterly terrified." Fu Xiaoyao took a sip of hot water, the warm liquid flowing down her throat and easing the chill in he...That evening, Qi Ya received a meticulously packaged express box.

The courier was initially received by Aunt Song. Aunt Song saw that the recipient was Qi Ya and gave her the package.

Qi Ya looked at the box in front of her, "Who sent this"

"How should I know," Aunt Song replied with an eye roll and a bad attitude.

Qiqiao was naturally very upset, but after so many years, this old woman was still highly regarded by Lu Hanzhen. Even if she was angry, she had to endure it.

"Alright, you can go now." Qi Ya didn't want to see Aunt Song, so she let her leave.

Aunt Song gave a cold glance at the corner of her mouth, not wanting to stay any longer, she turned and went back to the kitchen.

After Song Yi left, Qi Ya glared in the direction she had gone before calming down slightly and sitting down. She then picked up the fruit knife on the tea table and began to open the express delivery.

After opening it, she put down the knife and took out what was inside. To her surprise, it was another box.

This box was only the size of a hand, made of wood, with a layer of fiery red paint that wasn't applied evenly, making the whole thing look rather ugly. There was also a faint smell of burning coming from inside.

So what exactly is this

Who sent this

Qi Ya frowned, a hint of unease in her heart.

She eyed the red box in her hand with suspicion, instinctively knowing that whatever was inside couldn't be anything good. The person who sent it clearly wasn't up to anything nice.

Normally, she should throw it away and not look at it.

But Qi Ya couldn't contain her inner curiosity and finally decided to open the box.

She wanted to see what was inside, whether it was a prank someone sent her.

She knew about those internet trolls who threatened to send her blades and whatnot. Maybe this was one of their little gifts.

Thinking about it, Qi Ya bit her lip and opened the box.

However, as soon as the box was opened a crack, a pungent burning smell wafted out, causing her to wrinkle her nose and almost gag.

But in the end, she still gritted her teeth and endured, speeding up to open the box.

When the box was opened, everything inside spilled out. It was a black lump that landed right on her leg.

"What is it" Qi Ya jumped in surprise, then instinctively lowered her head to look.

After seeing the true nature of the thing, she was so frightened that she stood up abruptly, her face pale and letting out a scream.

Song Auntie in the kitchen heard her scream filled with terror and was startled, so she rushed out holding a spatula.

"What's wrong" Aunt Song rushed into the living room and asked in a hurry.

In the living room, Qi Ya stood before the coffee table, her body trembling uncontrollably. Her face was pale and bloodless, her eyes filled with undisguised terror, as if she had seen something utterly horrifying.

Such a change in Qi Ya made Song Yi feel very uncomfortable. She had never seen Qi Ya look so frightened before.

"Hey, what's wrong" Aunt Song poked Qi Ya with her spatula.

Qi Ya did not react.

Aunt Song looked around, but didn't see anything suspicious. She immediately became displeased and frowned, saying: "What are you doing You're making a fuss about nothing and putting on such a show. Who are you trying to scare"

"She's back..." Qi Ya suddenly reacted.

Song Yi heard this, stunned, "What What did you say"

"She's back." Qi Ya's body trembled even more violently, her face contorted with a neurotic expression, full of ferocity. "She's back to get revenge on me..."

"Who Who came back to seek revenge on you" Aunt Song was still confused.

Qi Ya stiffly turned her neck, her eyes hollowed and staring over. Her mouth moved, as if trying to say something.

But the next second, she suddenly rolled her eyes and fell backward.

With a thud.

Qi Ya fell to the ground unconscious under Aunt Song's astonished gaze.

Aunt Song was dumbfounded, "What's going on How did she faint again Isn't she faking it"

Thinking this, Auntie Song kicked Qi Ya with her toe.

Qi Ya showed no reaction.

Now that Auntie Song was sure she had really fainted, her expression became serious. "Really fainted... But fainting is just fainting, why did she have to faint here Now I have to work hard."

While muttering in discontent, Aunt Song squatted down to check on Qi Ya's condition.

When Chen saw Qi Ya holding a piece of paper in her hand, she let out a questioning "Huh", “What's this”

Auntie Song curiously pulled the note from Qi Ya's hand, held it up to her eyes, and at a glance, saw seven words written on it that made her gasp in surprise.

I'm back, killer!

What is going on

Where did this note come from

Could it be......

Remembering the package she had just received, Auntie Song hurried to look at the tea table. Seeing a red box on the table that looked as if it was stained with blood, she understood everything.

The delivery earlier was a threatening letter specifically sent to Qi Ya.

However, why would a threatening letter be put in a box

Could there have been other things in the box back then

Thinking of this, Aunt Song hurried to look around. Finally, in the shadow under the tea table's legs, she saw a black object.

She reached out and picked up the black object. It felt soft in her hand, like she was holding a lump of flesh.

Could it really be meat

With that in mind, Aunt Song spread out what she had received and, upon seeing what it was, threw it away in fright.

It's really meat, it's actually a burnt dead rat!

"This...this..." Aunt Song was so frightened that she didn't know what to say.

This is about dead rats and threatening letters again.

This is a big deal.

Aunt Song quickly got up, took out her phone and called Lu Hanchuan, telling him the whole story.

After hearing this, Lu Hanchuan also realized the seriousness of the situation. He canceled his meeting and rushed back. When he returned, besides Qiao Mu, he also brought a doctor with him.

"Where's Qi Ya" Lu Hanchuan asked Song Yi as he walked into the living room.

Aunt Song pointed upstairs, "I took the person to a room."

Lu Hanchuan hummed in response, taking the doctor upstairs to diagnose Qi Ya.

After the diagnosis, Lu Hanchuan looked at Qi Ya who was in a coma and asked the doctor, "How is she"

"It's nothing, just fainted from shock." the doctor replied.

"Overwhelmed" Lu Hanchuan narrowed his eyes.

The doctor nodded, "Yes, her adrenal glands are overproducing hormones. She received a severe shock, and coupled with the fact that she might have been experiencing insomnia recently, her mental state has been constantly on edge. After being startled, she fainted." the doctor explained.

Lu Hanchuan nodded slightly, indicating that he understood.

The doctor gave Qi Ya an injection to help her sleep, and left some medication to stabilize her mood before leaving.

After the doctor left, Lu Hanchuan didn't stay in Qi Ya's room for long either, and went downstairs.

"Where are the things" Lu Hanchuan looked at Aunt Song.

Aunt Song knew what he was asking and passed him a red box. "This is the package Qi Ya received."

Lu Hanchuan took the box without saying a word and opened it directly. Inside, the burnt mouse and the white piece of paper were exposed to the air.

Aunt Song said, "Originally, these two things were outside. After I sent Qi Ya to the room, I came down and put them back in the box."

Lu Hanchuan remained silent, frowning as he pulled out the note and stared intently at the single line of writing on it.

The towering tree behind him also saw, and couldn't help but speak, "Murderer...President Lu, does this mean that Qi Yani really killed someone"longing as she looked at the garden that resembled a fairyland.She couldn't help but touch the peony pot right beside her, leaning in for a sniff. The fragrance was so intoxicating that she closed her...
