Chapter 370: The old lady

"Alright, alright, alright, Engineer Chen, rest assured. Having you step in to resolve this matter is enough; I will handle the old lady's business myself!"

Xu Damao let out a long sigh of relief at this moment. As long as Chen Tian was willing to help him resolve this, he still had a way out.

Otherwise, if the matter blew up, he wouldn't even be able to keep his house!

He already had the rat poison in his hand, and in a while, he would cook a delicious pot of poison for the old lady. Xu Damao had already calculated how many days the old lady could last!

Afterward, Chen Tian simply returned to his own home, no longer paying any attention to Xu Damao.

However, he also wanted to see what kind of chaos would ensue now that these two were under the influence of the Desire Talisman and were the most beastly creatures in the Sihe Academy living together.

Meanwhile.

The old lady was getting impatient at home. She had originally planned to wash her feet and then lie comfortably on the bed, waiting for Xu Damao to cook a meal and bring it to her mouth.

Xu Damao had gone out to fetch foot-washing water and hadn't returned yet; the old lady was starving!

"Xu Damao, you bastard, I told you to go fetch water, why are you only back now? Don't you know I'm starving to death?"

"Hurry up and get to cooking! Do you hear me? If I'm hungry later, watch out, I'll kick you out to sleep on the street!"

Seeing Xu Damao return, the old lady's attitude was incredibly arrogant!

She was just one step away from slapping Xu Damao across the face!

Although Xu Damao was furious inside, he still forced a smile, while having already plotted that he would add even more rat poison when cooking later!

"Fine, just wait. I bought chicken and pork today, I'll cook it all for you in a bit!"

"Don't worry, I won't eat any of it, it's all yours. Eat as much as you want!"

Xu Damao said this while walking toward the kitchen, but his attitude was abnormally good!

Although the old lady felt something was off, she didn't think too much about it, assuming Xu Damao had finally come to his senses!

In the kitchen, halfway through cooking, Xu Damao took a packet of yellowish powder out of his pocket—it was clearly ground-up rat poison.

"Eat, eat, eat! Eat until you die, you old bastard. Tonight is the best time; letting you breathe for even one more second is a favor to you, you old bastard!"

Xu Damao was worked up now; he deliberately made a loud clanging sound with the spatula and ended up throwing in nearly half a packet of rat poison!

This was a three-day dose. Xu Damao had truly steeled his heart this time, intending for the old lady to die tonight!

When the matter blew up, Xu Damao wouldn't tell the people in the Sihe Academy. He would wait for the old lady to lie there for a day or two until she stopped breathing!

Xu Damao would then claim that the old lady had accidentally eaten a steamed bun contaminated with rat poison.

By then, even if it went to the police station, without proof, it would be hard for others to say he had harmed the old lady!

Afterward, Xu Damao happily brought out the two large bowls of pork and chicken. The old lady drooled at the sight!

At this moment, she didn't even have the patience to sit on the bed and have Xu Damao feed her; she got straight out of bed, went to the table, picked up her chopsticks, and began stuffing it into her mouth!

The old lady was under the influence of the Desire Talisman, and her craving for food was impossible to hide; she didn't notice anything wrong with the taste of the dish at all.

Before three or two bites, the old lady had already eaten nearly half a bowl of pork; her appetite was truly terrifying!

Moreover, Xu Damao hadn't touched his chopsticks at all, but the old lady didn't suspect anything; after all, Xu Damao wasn't qualified to eat this meat anyway!

"Eat more! Eat more! It's all yours. I'll just eat rotten vegetable leaves; this meat is specifically made for you!"

Xu Damao watched as the old lady stuffed the food he made into her mouth like a starving ghost reincarnated, and he felt incredibly happy!

The more she ate, the faster the old lady would die!

It would be best if she died in the middle of the night, so he would never have to endure the old lady's terrifying snoring again. Last night, Xu Damao hadn't closed his eyes for even a second!

The old lady's attention was entirely on the meat in the bowl; she didn't see the sinister expression on Xu Damao's face at all.

The old lady was so old, logically speaking, her appetite shouldn't be that large, but now her stomach was like a bottomless pit!

The two large bowls of pork and chicken were wiped clean by the old lady in less than 10 minutes!

But what Xu Damao found puzzling was that the old lady's complexion hadn't changed at all!

After eating, she even lay comfortably on the bed and ordered Xu Damao to wash her feet!

Xu Damao really couldn't figure it out. Could it be that he had poisoned her incorrectly?

With such a large dose of rat poison, even if someone had a very healthy body, their stomach should have had some reaction after eating so much!

Yet the old lady was glowing with health; she didn't look like someone who had been poisoned at all.

"Xu Damao, are you deaf? I told you to come over and wash my feet, can't you hear me? Hurry up and get over here!"

The old lady didn't think much of it, still feeling that Xu Damao was being somewhat reluctant.

Upon hearing these words, Xu Damao carried the foot-washing water to the old lady's side.

"Wife, is there any part of your body that feels uncomfortable? I don't mean anything else, it's just that you ate so much meat, it wouldn't be good if your stomach got bloated!"

Xu Damao asked tentatively; he wanted nothing more than to see the old lady die from the poison right then and there!

It would be best if she bled from her seven orifices and lost control of her bowels—the more miserable the death, the better!

Once the old woman died, he could just throw her out onto the street; he had no intention of holding a funeral for her!

"What's there to be uncomfortable about? The meat you made tastes okay, it's just a bit salty and feels a bit sticky. How much salt did you put in?" ===== CHAPTER 371 =====
