He Yuzhu returns in Siheyuan

Chapter 654 The person behind the scenes

Hearing this, He Yuzhu just smiled without commenting, his eyes revealing a trace of confidence and calmness, and slowly said: "How could these losers do such a thing alone? There must be someone behind the scenes secretly directing them. Humph, I want to see who is behind these tricks."

Qingyi frowned slightly, a trace of doubt flashed in his eyes, and he looked at He Yuzhu and asked: "Sect Master, are you saying that there is someone behind them supporting them and helping them do things?"

He Yuzhu nodded solemnly and said in a steady tone, "That's true. The power behind this is probably not simple, but we don't need to rush. Let's wait and see what happens. We will naturally know what's going on when the time comes."

At this moment, the waiter came over with steaming hot food and placed the full table neatly. He Yuzhu looked at the table full of delicacies and was indeed very hungry, but he knew in his heart that these dishes were all drugged and could not be eaten.

The people around He Yuzhu, unaware of what was going on, picked up their wine glasses and took a sip of wine. After a while, they felt dizzy and the scene in front of them gradually blurred. Then they fell on the table with a plop and fell asleep.

A moment later, there was a sound of light footsteps, and the graceful woman walked up the stairs with a group of servants with confident steps. One of the servants, with shifty eyes, approached the woman and asked in a low voice: "Sister Fox, do you think these people will be dragged to the back and dealt with like the previous ones?"

Just as the woman known as Sister Fox was about to respond, He Yuzhu suddenly sneered, stood up, and said loudly: "Okay, so this is a black shop! What on earth do you guys want to do?"

When Sister Fox heard He Yuzhu's voice, her heart suddenly tightened. She turned around and saw He Yuzhu standing there unharmed, with a sharp and majestic look in his eyes. She was secretly surprised and just wanted to say a few words to defend herself, but she was shocked to find that the four people following her had all fainted on the ground without a sound.

He Yuzhu stared at Sister Fox with a sharp gaze, and said in a deep voice: "Tell me, what is your name? And why do you want to do such a thing of stealing money and killing people?"

Sister Fox was panicking. She had never thought that the man in front of her had such a strong power behind him that he could subdue all her men without her noticing. She pretended to be calm, looked at He Yuzhu, and said pitifully, "Sir, what's wrong with you? I didn't do anything. How could you knock my men out for no reason?"

He Yuzhu snorted coldly, looked at her with disdain, and said, "Interesting, what decent store would put drugs in the wine? If you tell the truth, there is still a chance of survival; but if you are stubborn and refuse to tell the truth, then there is only one way to go, and that is death."

As soon as he finished speaking, the third brother walked forward with a stern face. The knife in his hand flashed coldly and was instantly placed on Sister Fox's neck. The cold blade touched her skin, making her shiver.

The fox's heart was filled with fear. She looked at He Yuzhu with her terrified eyes and said in a trembling voice: "Boss, I really know I was wrong. I am willing to give you all the money I have. Please let me go." As she spoke, she tried to win He Yuzhu's sympathy with a pitiful look.

He Yuzhu's face was stern, his eyes revealed unquestionable majesty, staring straight at the fox, and said, "Don't pretend to be pitiful here. Tell me, this matter is not under your control at all. There must be someone behind you, who is that person? You'd better tell the truth."

Fox bit her lip, a hint of hesitation flashed in her eyes, and then she pretended to be innocent and said, "We are the only ones here, I am the boss here, there is really no one else. As long as you let me go, I will do anything you ask me to do." As she said that, she took out a small bottle from her sleeve while He Yuzhu was not paying attention, quickly opened the bottle cap, and released some poisonous smoke with a pungent smell towards He Yuzhu. The poisonous smoke was light green and floated towards He Yuzhu like a ghost. Once inhaled, the consequences would be disastrous.

However, what Fox didn't expect was that when the poisonous smoke approached He Yuzhu, a jade pendant he was wearing suddenly emitted a soft light. This light was like an invisible shield, blocking all the poisonous smoke and dissolving it instantly. Under the illumination of the light, the poisonous smoke gradually dissipated into nothingness.

He Yuzhu looked at the fox with increasingly cold eyes and said, "I'll give you one last chance. Don't you really know what's going on upstairs? How dare you rob people here? How many lives are at stake upstairs? I'll give you one stick of incense. If you don't tell the truth, don't blame me for being rude. You'll only end up dead." After saying that, he turned to look at Qingyi. Qingyi obeyed He Yuzhu's orders very well. He immediately took out a stick of incense from his pocket, lit it with a flint, and inserted the incense into the incense burner beside him. The rising green smoke seemed to be a countdown to the fox's fate.

Fox was filled with doubt and fear. She really didn't understand why the poisonous smoke she had spread had no effect on He Yuzhu. At this moment, she could only stand there helplessly, staring at the incense stick, watching time pass by little by little, her heart filled with despair and struggle.

Just as the incense stick was about to burn out, the flame of the incense became weaker and weaker, and the smoke gradually thinned. He Yuzhu looked at Fox again, without any mercy in his tone, and said, "It seems that you are not going to tell it, so don't blame me for being cruel. Third brother, drag her down and kill her. By then, the people above will naturally know what happened."

The third brother heard the order and walked forward without hesitation, grabbed the fox's arm and prepared to drag her away. The fox widened her eyes in fear and struggled desperately, but under the strong control of the third brother, everything was in vain.

The fox was filled with fear at this moment. She watched the fierce murderous intent flashing in her boss's eyes and truly felt that the other party really wanted to kill her.

At this critical moment, her panicked eyes roamed around, and finally fell on He Yuzhu, who looked relatively gentle. As if she had grabbed the last straw, she begged in a crying voice: "Boss, please let me go. I will tell you everything. I will tell you whatever you want to ask."

He Yuzhu frowned slightly, turned to look at the third brother, and said in a reprimand: "Come on, don't be so rough with a girl." Then he turned his eyes back to the fox, and said in a slightly softer tone, but still with unquestionable majesty: "Tell me, what's your name, and who is the person behind you?"
