Chapter 004 Paper Cutting
"Please sit down first." Chen Duo said, sitting back in his seat.
The girl sat down next to her. She had delicate features , good looks and a good figure. She was a beauty, but she looked arrogant and had a domineering look.
"This is Kang Lu, ask the waiter for a set of bowls and chopsticks." Chen Duo said the first half of the sentence to Xu, and the second half to her classmates.
"No need, I've already eaten." Kang Lu said coldly, "Just order whatever you want, it's my treat."
"I can afford a meal, there's no need for a young lady like you to spend money!" Chen Duo immediately retorted.
"Don't try to show off. What kind of income do you have? You rely on the rent of those three houses. No one dares to rent them now, right?" Kang Lu sneered.
"What do you know!" Chen Duo said stubbornly.
"Is there anything in Jiangning City that I don't know?" Kang Lu snorted coldly.
"Xu Lai, tell her!" Chen Duo almost slammed the table.
Seeing the two women quarreling non-stop as soon as they sat down, Xu Lai couldn't help but laugh and said, "The landlord's three apartments are very popular. I begged for a long time before the landlord reluctantly agreed to rent one."
"Did you hear that?" Chen Duo was very satisfied to see Xu Lai's cooperation.
"Enough, you guys!" Kang Lu looked at Xu Lai disdainfully and said, "Did you say that before?"
"Isn't that right?" Xu Lai went to eat.
"I'm just guessing. Many people have these symptoms." Kang Lu disagreed.
Chen Duo sneered: "Then why did you come with me?"
Kang Lu snorted and stood up to leave, then she heard the man called Xu Lai say, "You don't dare to go out after 10 o'clock at night?"
"What do you mean?" Kang Lu stopped.
This time even Chen Duo was a little confused. In a big city like Jiangning, ten o'clock in the evening was still very early and the nightlife had just begun. Why should she be afraid to go out?
"Because it's not very convenient..." Xu said.
"Stop talking!" Kang Lu interrupted him and sat back down.
Chen Duo didn't understand what he said. Seeing Kang Lu's face turn red, she wondered what had hit her sore spot.
"Then what disease do I have?" Kang Lu asked through gritted teeth.
Chen Duo was also very curious. She just noticed that there was a layer of mist covering the body of this enemy, but she had no idea why.
Then Xu said, "Dirty water has entered."
"Dirty water?" the two women asked at the same time.
"What nonsense are you talking about! What I eat and drink are all the finest things, how could I drink unclean water?" Kang Lu disagreed.
"You are a young lady, but you still come here to eat. What's so strange about drinking something unclean?" Chen Duo immediately sneered.
But Xu said: "Dirty water is indeed unclean water, but it refers to the kind of unclean water."
He deliberately emphasized the word "that kind of unclean". Chen Duo had the ability to see ghosts and spirits since she was a child, so she understood it immediately when she heard it, but Kang Lu's reaction was not so quick.
But after thinking about it for a while, she understood.
"Is this nonsense?" This was the first thought that came to both Chen Duo and Kang Lu.
Water is just water, they have never heard of dirty water.
"There are many types of water, such as heaven and earth water, rootless water, gold and silver water..." Xu Lai listed some of them while eating.
Chen Duo and Kang Lu didn't understand at all.
"Just tell me how to treat dirty water." Kang Lu said: "I went to the hospital many times, and the doctors said it was nothing serious."
"I've only seen one person who got into dirty water." Chen Duo suddenly interjected, "He died three days later. His entire body was dry and shrunken. It was as ugly as it could be."
"Don't try to scare me. I'm not someone who can be scared." Kang Lu sneered. She had been fighting with Chen Duo for so many years, so she knew her tricks.
But Xu said, "The landlord is right. After entering the dirty water, the normal moisture in the human body will be driven out. After a few days, the person will become a mummy."
Chen Duo listened to him speaking in a serious tone and couldn't help but wonder whether this guy was deliberately cooperating with her to scare people or was serious.
"I'm going to be away for a while." Kang Lu suddenly stood up and left in a hurry.
Chen Duo looked at the direction she went and thought she was going to the bathroom. She turned around and asked Xu Lai, "You just said she didn't dare to go out after ten o'clock. What's going on?"
"It's nothing, it's just inconvenient to go to the bathroom outside." Xu said.
"What's inconvenient about this?" Chen Duo wondered.
While they were talking, Kang Lu had returned. She had indeed gone to the bathroom. Since yesterday, she had been urinating frequently and had to go to the bathroom every once in a while. Especially after 10 pm, it was even more of a disaster. She basically spent the second half of the night yesterday by the toilet.
"Tell me, how do you want to cure it? As long as you cure me, I don't care how much the reward is." Kang Lu said as soon as he sat down.
Chen Duo looked down on this guy, thinking that he had the temper of a spoiled little princess and thought that money was omnipotent.
I only heard Xu say: "It's free. You are an acquaintance of my landlord. It's free."
"I'm not familiar with her at all!" Kang Lu snorted.
"Not at all!" Chen Duo retorted.
"Haha." Xu Lai laughed dryly, "Since you are not familiar with him, forget it. I won't save him."
Kang Lu was so angry. According to her temper, she would have slammed the table and left by now. But she felt so bad last night that she was really scared. But she couldn't say anything to Chen Duo to give in!
The situation was deadlocked for a moment, the two women had stern faces and ignored each other.
Xu Lai, on the other hand, ate happily and never stopped eating with his chopsticks.
"Okay, okay, my house is right next door, let's go!" Chen Duo got up and paid the bill. When she came back, she didn't care whether Xu Lai had finished his meal or not, she just called him and left.
Kang Lu followed the two of them out without saying a word. When they got outside the restaurant, she took out the key and pressed it, and a pink Maserati suddenly flashed its lights.
"Take my car." Kang Lu said.
"It's just a few steps away. Miss, do you want to drive too?" Chen Duo said sarcastically, and left with Xu Lai.
Kang Lu needed help, so he had no choice but to follow silently without saying a word.
This restaurant is near the Zijinyuan residential area, less than 500 meters away, and the three of them arrived there after walking for a while.
Taking the elevator to the 21st floor, Kang Lu glanced at the corridor and said with a smile: "It's quite deserted. Where are the other tenants?"
"You don't allow people to sleep?" Chen Duo replied.
"That's really early." Kang Lu chuckled.
"What 's it to ? If you keep talking nonsense, don't come in!" Chen Duo said, took the key to open her room 2101 and turned on the light.
Kang Lu didn't dare to annoy her too much at this time. Hehe, he sneered and kept silent.
Xu Lai followed the two women into the house. The layout and decoration of this house were similar to his own. It was obvious that they were designed by the same person, but the furnishings in the house were relatively warmer.
"Hey, tell me how to treat it quickly, or some people will get in my way!" Chen Duo said as he sat on the sofa.
This time, Kang Lu for the first time ever resisted the urge to confront her. She stared at Xu Lai, feeling a little nervous.
Her head still felt heavy, her back and waist ached, and her eyes were swollen. These were still the best symptoms. The most unbearable thing for her was the urge to urinate, especially late at night. This physiological reaction was simply uncontrollable.
She has always been proud and arrogant. If she really makes a fool of herself in front of others, how can she live? This is more painful than death.
"I'll go to the bathroom first!" As soon as I thought of this, I immediately felt it and rushed to the bathroom.
"This guy has kidney deficiency." Chen Duo muttered, without thinking too much, and asked Xu Lai in a low voice, "Can you really cure it?"
"Of course." Xu Lai said while admiring the furnishings in the house.
"Really?" Chen Duo was skeptical.
"What else do you think?" Xu said.
"Hmm." In fact, Chen Duo was quite skeptical about his ability. At first, she thought he was cooperating with her to confront Kang Lu, but now it doesn't seem like that.
"Landlord, can I ask you something?" Xu came over and asked in a low voice.
"What?" Chen Duo said.
"Do you really want to save her? Do you want me to cripple her?" Xu Lai asked.
Chen Duo looked at him. What kind of person is this? How could he be so dark in his heart?
"Do I look like the kind of person who would take advantage of someone in distress? Just save her." Chen Duo quickly lowered her attitude.
"Okay." Xu Lai nodded.
At this time, the bathroom door opened, Kang Lu came out and asked Xu Lai: "How do you want to treat it? I will cooperate."
Xu Lai turned around and asked Chen Duo : "Landlord, do you have a rope?"
"What do you want the rope for?" Chen Duo was puzzled. Kang Lu was also puzzled.
Xu Lai smiled at Kang Lu and said, "You have dirty water in your body. We need to get the dirty water out of your body. So the process will be a bit painful and we have to tie you up."
"No need for that. I can bear it." Kang Lu said, and tied him up with a rope. Why did it sound so unreliable?
"It has to be tied up, otherwise it can't be cured." Xu Lai shook his head.
Kang Lu was conflicted. Although she was anxious to get treatment, she was not a brainless person. She knew nothing about the other party, so how could she let someone kidnap her so easily?
"I can really bear it, let's just treat it this way." Kang Lu reiterated.
"You really can't bear it. If you refuse, then I really can't cure you. Why don't you go find someone else to try?" Xu said.
Kang Lu gritted her teeth. If she didn't really need help this time, given her temper, she would have turned around and left long ago.
"Is this person really reliable?" Kang Lu suddenly asked Chen Duo.
"I don't know, you decide for yourself." In fact, Chen Duo was still a little scared and unsure, but things had come to this point and she could only hold on.
"Okay then, let's do as you say." Kang Lu had no choice but to make up her mind.
Chen Duo went into a room and rummaged around for a while before actually finding a bundle of ropes. She handed it to Xu Lai and asked, "What do we do?"
Then I heard him say, "Go and tie it up."
"Ah? How do I tie someone up? I don't know." Chen Duo was shocked. She had never tied anyone up before.
"It's nothing special. Just tie your hands and feet and don't move." Xu said.
Chen Duo was still hesitating when she heard Kang Lu say, "Why are you hesitating? You don't even know how to tie someone up. Let me teach you!"
He came over and took the rope from Chen Duo's hand, and said to Xu, "Where can I get it treated?"
Xu Lai asked: "Landlord, which bedroom do you have? I'd like to borrow it for use."
Chen Duo didn't say anything and went to open the door of one of the rooms.
"Just tie it to your bed." Xu Lai continued to instruct, "By the way, landlord, where are the scissors in your house?"
Chen Duo took out a pair of scissors from the drawer and threw them to him, then went into the house to tie the man up. With Kang Lu's active cooperation, he tied him up in no time.
I went out to look for Xu Lai, but saw him sitting on the sofa, cutting a piece of white paper with scissors.
