Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!R ripples smiled faintly and nodded to each person greeting the old general before following General Du into his study.The old matri...When the four members of the Tao family entered the territory of Yangcheng, Lian'ri knew that the culprit had returned. Even more excited than her was Xi Nuo, who couldn't find Tao Jingfeng for revenge because they were too far apart before. Now that the other party has returned, she naturally wants to get justice for herself.

But all of these were stopped by ripples, she still said the old words, revenge should be taken, but innocent people shouldn't be harmed, and the perpetrator should admit their crime themselves. So on the day she confirmed that the other party would return, Ripples contacted Yu Liang and Ji Hui Lian.

Ripple also reminded Ji Huilian that even though she had driven the murderer back, he definitely wouldn't admit to the crime. So, she went the extra mile and set up a big show for him. As the officer in charge of the "June 15th case," it was imperative that she be present at the scene; otherwise, how could she convict the perpetrator

Ji Hui Lian immediately understood the meaning behind Lian Ri's words. Together with Yu Liang, they dressed in casual clothes, brought a small recording device, and a phone with a camera function, and then went to Lian Ri's small villa as guests.

Ripple hugged Cyclone and brought the two of them to the second-floor balcony, setting out refreshments for them.

Yu Liang was the first to speak:

"Miss Chou, we have received word that Mr. Tao Jingfeng has arrived in Yangcheng with his wife and two children. Are you sure they will be coming here"

He'll be here. He's afraid of death, he definitely will come here to find out what's going on.

The ripple edge and the wind gave an affirmative answer.

Yu Liang still wanted to ask something, but Ji Hui Lian suddenly spoke up:

"Miss Chou, someone is here."

All three looked towards the door and saw a family of four getting out of the car. Behind them, a beautiful woman got out of the second car.

The woman was tall and slender, wearing a black dress with subtle patterns that clung tightly to her figure, showcasing her excellent physique. Her shiny black hair was pulled up into an elegant bun, adorned with a delicate hat featuring black netting. A pair of fiery red lips were revealed, curving slightly at the corners, hinting at her good mood.

The moment the woman looked up, her eyes met Ripples', who was standing on the balcony. Ripples also smiled faintly and shouted down to the first floor:

"Aunt Qi, please open the door. We have guests at home. Please ask them to sit in the living room for a bit."

"Okay, Ms. Chou."

A middle-aged woman in an apron hurried out of the villa and to the iron gate. She first glanced at the few people dressed in rich attire, then opened the gate and invited the five people into the living room on the first floor of the small villa.

"Please, have a seat. Miss Chou will be down shortly."

After finishing, she turned and went to the kitchen, still thinking about adding a few more dishes. There were quite a few guests today.

Ripple, holding onto the whirlwind, arrived at the living room on the first floor. Following behind her were Yu Liang, Gigi Lien, and Xi Nuo; however, only Ripple was visible to everyone else.

However, once she was seated in the main seat, the beauty in black cheongsam glanced at Xi Ruo standing behind her, as if she could see through her.

With a raised eyebrow, Lianyi didn't say much, just looked at the somewhat haggard Tao Jingfeng and said:

"Mr. Tao, welcome back to your old stomping grounds."

"Miss, do we know each other"

Tao Jingfeng asked warily.

"I don't know him. I've only heard about Mr. Tao. This is our first meeting. Well, as they say, it's better to meet someone than just hear about them."

R ripples said as she stroked the cat, "

"This person..."

"My last name is Qiu, my given name is Lianyi. You can call me Miss Qiu!"

Liàn Yī didn't like being called "Miss," so she introduced herself.

"Miss Chou, let's be frank. You used such underhanded tactics to force me back. What are you trying to do"

Tao Jingfeng had already taken Liang Yu and Ji Huilian as aides for Ripples, so he didn't avoid speaking in front of the two of them.

"Didn't I say I'm fulfilling the original owner's wish and accumulating merit for myself."

The ripples spoke slowly.

"What wish Why do you want to hurt my child"

Tao Jingfeng still avoided the core of the topic and said.

"Two little kids, do you know that you were born here"

Ripples turned her head to look at Tao Shixu and Tao Shiyun and asked.

Both of them glared at Ripples with suspicion, their eyes filled with resentment. This was the first time they had suffered such a grave injustice, and they could tell by the look in everyone's eyes that they and their father were being treated this way because of this frivolous woman.

Tao Shiyun, a girl, said with some grievance:

"We only just found out that we were born in Guangzhou. As for our biological mother, we've never met her, and she has never looked for us."

She did want to, but unfortunately your father didn't give her the chance.

Ripples waved her hand, stopping Xi Nuo who was about to rush out. Tao Jingfeng was prepared, he brought experts too! She didn't want Xi Nuo to be completely scattered by them.

And her action caused the beauty across from her, who was fanning herself with a black folding fan, to pause momentarily. However, she didn't say anything, just fixed her beautiful eyes on the ripples.

"Ms. Chou!"

Tao Jingfeng's face was a little grim. He still wanted to maintain his image as a dignified father in front of the two children, but Lianyi didn't give him a chance.

“Today, I’m in a good mood, so I’ll tell you a story about this villa. The story starts with the villa’s first owner. He was a returning overseas Chinese, but his return had a purpose because his wife hadn't given him any children...”

Then, the ripples began to tell the tale of a doomed love between Tao Jingfeng and Xi Nuo, leaving both Tao Jingfeng and Mrs. Tao feeling deeply uneasy.

Tao Jingfeng tried every time to interrupt the ripples, but he couldn't get a word in.

Tao Shixu and Tao Shiyun are not fools. They know that the Xi Luo spoken of by each other is their biological mother. However, what they cannot accept is that their mother was actually killed by their father. They are at a loss, not knowing how to face their father.

"Shut up, stop talking nonsense. She eloped with her childhood sweetheart, I couldn't find her, so I brought the two kids back to Hong Kong. I even wanted to give her a proper title."

After Tao Jingfeng had finished his ripples, he finally opened his mouth and toasted.

"Is that so But Xi Nuo didn't say that."

Ripples waved her hand, instantly pulling the four members of the Tao family into a fantasy world within the small villa. The time in the small villa went back fifteen years, and the decoration and furnishings in the room also returned to their original appearance.

Tao Jingfeng became his younger self, the vengeful spirit Xi Nuo played herself, and the two children became babies in their mother's womb. Tao's wife and the woman in a cheongsam she brought, as well as Lianyi, became outsiders, watching as Tao Jingfeng step by step schemed against Xi Nuo, finally handing her a cup of water laced with sleeping pills.

Then there is the account of Tao Jingfeng killing and dismembering Xi Nuo. Fearing Xi Nuo's revenge, he buried the body parts separately according to the reverse order of the Five Elements, ensuring Xi Nuo could never leave this courtyard.

And at this time, Xi Nuo, who had been dismembered, suddenly opened her eyes. In Tao Jingfeng's terrified gaze, she plunged her sharp nails into Tao Jingfeng's chest. Her face also instantly became rotten and hideous, with a hoarse roar from her mouth:

"Tao Jingfeng, give me back my life!" now."Zenghongliang got up and said, Lianyi nodded and followed him out."Boss, look over there, that's General Dan's ship."The bodyguard pointed to a white dot on the sea horizon and said.Contact himZ...
