Chapter 448 - 462: Refusing a toast only to drink a forfeit, this is what you asked for.
Liao Tingxiao rubbed his temples helplessly, "I take back what I said earlier, let’s eat quickly. Once we’re done, we’ll head to the villa in the East Suburb.""I’m not hungry, too mad to eat."
Liao Tingting shot Han Xi a venomous glare, stood up, and directly went back to her room.
After dinner, Liao Tingxiao took Han Xi and the others to the villa in the East Suburb, accompanied by Doctor Wang and some servants.

Lu Jinghan over here had been interrogating the person he brought back for quite some time, but nothing useful came out.
Fu Bin, sitting on the sofa, leaned forward to extinguish his cigarette, exhaling a smoky ring, "My patience is wearing thin because of you. You refuse the easy way out and court trouble—remember, it’s your own doing."
Fu Bin picked up the dagger on the table and strode over to the person, squatting down beside him, his hand struck decisively.
In an instant, the person on the ground clutched his thigh, wailing in pain. Fu Bin gripped his hair with a grim face, "Spit out everything you know to me, or you’ll wish you were dead."
"I know nothing, I truly don’t know."
Standing at the floor-to-ceiling window, Lu Jinghan hung up the phone, walked over, crouched down beside him, dust on his white shoes.
"Really not planning to talk?"
"I genuinely know nothing, I’m just a small fry, let me go."
Lu Jinghan pressed the cigarette-holding hand onto the dagger stuck in his leg, blood flowed continually, "Still not planning to talk?"
The man’s features contorted in extreme pain, his screams echoed like a slaughterhouse throughout the room.
"Then cut off a finger one by one until he talks."
Lu Jinghan blew out a smoke ring, his eyes harbored a deep-seated gloom.
Fu Bin smirked as he pulled out the dagger, "That’s not a bad idea."
As the words fell, the person’s pinkie was severed, blood splattered everywhere.
"I’ll talk, I’ll talk... I’ll tell you everything I know..."
The person was so pained his face turned pale, terrified to the point of wetting his pants.
Lu Jinghan signaled to someone nearby to bandage the wound, then stood up and sat down in front of the sofa, "Hurry up and talk."
"I heard from the underlings that Mr. Liao seems to be taking the woman to the villa in the East Suburb, but I really don’t know the exact address... besides, Mr. Liao has a wife, she’s the eldest daughter of the Tang Family."
"That’s all?"
The person nodded repeatedly, "I’m just a small fry, I really don’t know much, please let me go."
Feng Yi struck the person’s head heavily, and he fainted.
"Jing Han, what do we do now?"
Lu Jinghan’s eyes darkened for a few seconds in thought, "You and Fu Bin take two teams, one to surveil Liao Tingxiao’s wife, the other to investigate the East Suburb. Be cautious, avoid detection, and don’t engage directly."
"Got it, don’t worry."
.......
Inside the villa in the East Suburb, Doctor Wang said he prepared some pain relievers to give to Han Xi and would help check her wounds.
Liao Tingxiao was on the phone in the living room, nodded at Doctor Wang’s words, indicating she could go upstairs.
Doctor Wang, carrying the medicine box, went upstairs, knocked lightly a few times on the door, and entered.
As the door closed when she turned around entering the bedroom, Doctor Wang cautiously surveyed the surroundings.
"Miss Han, here are the pain relievers I prescribed for you. You can take one if the wound becomes very painful."
Doctor Wang placed the medicine on the nightstand, "Miss Han, please lie down on the bed, I’ll check your wound."
