Chapter 225 The Death Knell Is About to Ring

Han Rui nodded with a smile, "Naturally, Grandpa. I've grown up now, you don't need to worry too much."

Han Cai looked at him, a sense of relief in his heart, "That's good."

After speaking, he began to reach for the cane beside the table, seemingly intending to leave.

Seeing this, Han Rui quickly moved behind Han Cai and, with a bright smile, presented the bowl of oatmeal and shredded chicken in his hand to Han Cai. He smiled and said, "Right, Grandpa, look at your face. It's as bitter as a bitter melon. This bowl of porridge was made by Dr. Han for the kitchen. It's added with medicinal herbs and is very nourishing. You must have a bowl."

Bai Xi looked towards Han Mo.

Han Mo was indeed kind.

Han Mo looked at Bai Xi and smiled faintly.

This porridge had nothing to do with him, and the reason Han Rui said that was most likely to coax Grandpa Han to eat.

However, because Bai Xi glanced at him more because of this porridge, he was very satisfied with Han Rui's words. He didn't mind giving Han Rui another medicine besides the hemostatic and blood-replenishing medicine he had previously given.

Han Cai was in a bad mood, but seeing Han Rui's smiling face, his mood instantly improved, "Thank you, Dr. Han."

Since it was specially prepared with medicinal herbs by Dr. Han himself, he naturally had to drink the medicinal cuisine.

As he picked up the spoon, he noticed the bandages on Han Rui's hand, "Rui'er, what happened to your hand?"

Han Rui glanced at the bandage on his hand and put on a wronged expression, "Grandpa, I can't say."

Han Cai was slightly taken aback, "What's wrong? Why can't you say?"

Han Rui pointed directly at Bai Xi, "Little Xi'er won't let me say."

Bai Xi felt her temple twitch slightly and looked at Han Rui calmly.

This man was being mischievous again.

For a moment, everyone looked at Bai Xi, as if waiting for an answer.

Han Cai was stunned for a while before saying, "Since Miss doesn't want you to say, then don't say it."

Han Rui looked wronged, "Grandpa, ever since Little Xi'er came, you don't dote on me anymore..."

Han Cai coughed lightly, "My child, don't speak such truths when you have nothing to do. Go wherever it's cool."

Han Rui said proudly, "She won't let me say it, but I insist. I also went when Dr. Han was making the porridge this morning. I thought it was for Grandpa, so I wanted to participate. I thought and thought, and didn't know what to do, so I went to cut the chicken. As a result, I accidentally cut my palm with the knife. You're already so miserable, but Miss said I shouldn't tell everyone, lest you laugh at me for being stupid."

Han Cai, "...That is indeed quite foolish, cutting your palm while cutting meat. Don't tell anyone you're my grandson Han Cai from now on."

Han Rui's innocent expression became even more pronounced, "Wuwuwu, Grandpa, even you are bullying me."

Han Cai raised his hand and pressed his temple. Not wanting to look at his grandson, he directly picked up the porridge in front of him and drank it in one go, "Alright, Grandpa knows your filial piety."

Han Rui's smile became bright again.

Bai Xi raised her eyebrows, looking at Han Rui speechlessly, "..."

This guy was really dramatic.

Han Mo, seeing that Bai Xi kept looking at Han Rui, felt a little displeased.

He decided that the extra medicine he had planned to give Han Rui earlier would not be given.

Fortunately, Han Rui was unaware of Han Mo's inner thoughts at this moment. If he had known, he would have cried to death.

Han Mo picked up his chopsticks and gently picked up an egg roll, placing it in Bai Xi's bowl. "This egg roll is good. Xi'er, you should have a piece too."

Bai Xi then shifted her attention to Han Mo, smiling as she ate the egg roll. The egg was very tender, with no eggy smell at all, and it was drizzled with a sweet and sour sauce. "It's indeed good."

Han Mo smiled gently.

Just then, a security guard from the Han family walked in, "Master, there was a child outside just now. He said a man gave him this and asked him to hand it over to the young lady of the family. However, all the third-generation members of our Han family are male, and there are no young ladies."

Han Cai looked suspiciously at the item in the security guard's hand.

It was a doll about fifty centimeters long.

The doll was exquisitely made and very beautiful, with long eyelashes, rosy lips, and could even be described as lifelike.

"Then why didn't you return the item to the child and tell him we don't have a young lady?"

The security guard said, "I did, but the child insisted that he had come to the right place. He even stated our house number and confirmed it was the Han family."

Han Rui frowned, "Our Han family's third generation indeed has no girls, but don't we have a young lady in our family now?"

Before Han Rui could say this, Bai Xi had already sensed that this item was likely intended for her. However, the person who sent it was acting sneakily, and certainly didn't have good intentions.

She stepped forward, wanting to get a closer look at the doll. The moment she approached, the doll suddenly smiled.

Startled, the security guard holding the doll threw it away.

The moment the doll landed on the ground, its head fell off.

The body and head were completely separated, but the mouth opened and closed, moving and slowly saying, "War God, we meet again. Wang Fen's ambush has been discovered by you for so long, you are truly amazing..."

The doll's voice was lively and cheerful, but because of the doll's opening and closing mouth, and the current scene of its head and body being separated, it looked chilling.

"Next, you will face my new round of challenges. At ten o'clock tonight, many lambs will die in pain. War God, do you want to save them?"

Bai Xi frowned, quietly looking at the doll whose mouth kept opening and closing.

Han Rui, upon hearing this, immediately became angry, "Who are you? What are you doing!"

He said, and was about to step forward to grab the doll.

Xuan Feng grabbed his arm, his eagle eyes cold as he looked at him and subtly shook his head.

Unexpectedly, in the next second, the subordinate who had been holding the doll suddenly became agitated. He clutched his neck tightly, his expression showing extreme pain. His entire face turned red, and his lips turned purplish-brown. Veins bulged on his face, and white foam continuously came out of his mouth.

Han Cai was stunned by the scene before him. He had just recovered, "Wh-what's going on? He, what happened to him!"

The butler, Uncle Zhang, quickly shielded Han Cai, "Master, don't get close to him!"

In the entire scene, everyone's expression changed due to the sudden turn of events, except for the headless doll.

It still smiled faintly, its voice sharp as it said, "Ding dong, ding dong... I'll tell you quietly, the countdown begins now, ten hours. The death knell is about to ring. War God, you say you care about the world, can you save everyone? It depends on your performance. Hahahaha..."

The voice was not loud, but it was extremely piercing, as if it were constantly hammering at the eardrums of everyone present, causing their skin to crawl.
