Qin Yanran patted her hand, comforting, "Don't worry, Qiao'er. We've been discreet enough. Even if someone investigates later, they won't trace it back to us."
Zhao Qiao'er seemed to think of something, feeling uneasy, and turned to ask Liu'er, "Did you destroy all the evidence?"
Liu'er said with some pride, "Miss, rest assured! I've followed your instructions and buried the paper bag containing powdered medicine under the tree outside Zhao Ling'er's courtyard."
"Hmm! Liu'er does get things done. This way, the plan of killing three birds with one stone is secure now."
Ms Qin smiled so broadly that her eyes couldn't be seen, removed a jade bracelet from her wrist, and handed it to Liu'er.
"Here, take it. This is your reward."
"Thank you, Mistress." Liu'er was overjoyed, took the bracelet, and promptly bowed respectfully.
