If the man hadn’t had a bit of Cultivation, he would probably have gone to meet King Yama by now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And based on the current situation, it seemed the unlucky man was bitten by the venomous insect while reading in the library.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing this news, everyone’s expression turned grim.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’There’s a venomous insect hiding in the library?’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’If one of us got bitten by accident, wouldn’t we end up just like that unlucky guy?’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this thought, even Qin Yang’s expression soured.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Why did I like working in the library? It was simply because it was stable and stress-free.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’But now I’m being told that even staying in the library comes with a risk of death.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’This is basically leaving me no way to live!’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Nowadays, is it so hard to find a place to just honestly lie flat?’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A moment later, the meeting ended, and the Steward assigned everyone a task regarding the matter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A full, deep clean!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The venomous insect must be cleared out!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Evidently, the poisoning incident with the unlucky man had brought a lot of negative publicity to the library.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The higher-ups had given a strict order: this problem had to be solved immediately.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A situation like this was absolutely not to happen again!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Qin Yang, take a look for me.

Thank god I wasn’t the one who got bitten.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thinking of the unlucky man’s fate, a chill instantly ran down Xia He’s spine.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If I got bitten, wouldn’t all those young ladies at Platinum Han lose a huge amount of business?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"They’re already so pitiful.
