âHow?â
âWell, we canâ¦â
Zhang Xinya was about to speak when she suddenly saw Tang Li and Qi Yihan walking out from the side. Her face instantly turned pale.
Tang Li looked at her and asked coldly, âHow? Tell us.â
âI⦠Iâ¦â
Facing Qi Yihanâs bone-chilling gaze, the two of them trembled uncontrollably and lowered their heads, not daring to speak.
Even Qi Junhao, who was being hugged by Zhang Xinya, felt afraid. He buried his head in Zhang Xinyaâs arms, not daring to look at Qi Yihan.
âHumph!â Qi Yihanâs voice was cold. âLooks like you guys donât remember the Qi familyâs rules at all. In that case, go to the ancestral hall and copy the family rules this week. Copy them ten times, not one less.â
When they heard this, cold sweat broke out on their foreheads.
However, the two of them did not dare to defy.
After saying that, Qi Yihan walked away with Tang Li.
Tang Li glanced at the two people and snorted with displeasure.
The people from First Masterâs family never learned their lessons.
After Tang Li and Qi Yihan left, Qi Ming and Zhang Xinya came back to their senses.
Qi Ming gritted his teeth and scolded Zhang Xinya with a livid face, âIf it wasnât for you, I wouldnât have been punished! Youâre always causing trouble for me. Why donât you just die!?â
After saying that, he slapped her.
This slap made Zhang Xinya stagger backward. If not for the fact that she was carrying their son, she would have fallen.
However, this slap scared Qi Junhao so much that he started crying.
Zhang Xinya also started crying.
She did not know that Fourth Uncle and Fourth Aunt would be overhearing their conversation.
If she knew they would hear her, she would rather be a mute.
Looking at Qi Ming who was stomping away angrily, Zhang Xinya quickly chased after him and said while crying, âQi Ming, itâs my fault. I wonât spout nonsense again. Iâ¦â
âDo you think we can afford to offend Fourth Uncle?â Qi Ming suddenly stopped and glared at Zhang Xinya.
With that, Qi Ming was frustrated and strode away.
Zhang Xinya quickly coaxed Qi Junhao, who was crying with tears trickling down his face in streams, âBaby, be good. Baby, donât cry. Mommy will give you candy.â
âCandy ~ Candy ~â
â¦
After Tang Li and Qi Yihan left, the more Tang Li thought about it, the more unhappy she became. The people from First Masterâs family never changed. Although she knew that they would be taught a lesson by the male lead, she still wanted to do it herself.
She grabbed Qi Yihanâs hand and said to him, âWhy donât we call them over for breakfast and talk about this?â
âNo need.â Qi Yihan didnât want to see those people at all, but he wouldnât let them off so easily either. âIâll get Butler Yang to inform First Madam that their living expenses for this month have been canceled. If they do it again, weâll double it.â
Tang Li agreed. âThatâs a good idea.â
When Qi Yihanâs words reached First Masterâs house, everyone was stunned.
Especially First Madam, who was still lying on the bed. âWhy did he cancel our expenses for this month? He doesnât have the right!â Yesterday, she asked the butler for 500,000 yuan to recover, but Tang Li didnât give her any. If she didnât give her money, she would die!
Qi Bailing told her mother with a dark expression, âI heard that First Brother told First Sister-in-law in private that Tan Wenjing wanted to seduce Fourth Uncle, and Fourth Uncle and Fourth Aunt happened to be nearby and heard it.â
Hearing that, First Madam was so angry that she started cursing.
The others in the living room were also livid.
Zhang Xinya stood there with her head lowered and tears streaming down her face. She did not dare to make a sound.
Tan Wenjing also heard about this, but she didnât go over. She stayed in her room, her face twisted with anger.
She knew that after what Zhang Xinya said, she could no longer stay in the Qi family.
She sat by the bed and called her mother. âMom, I donât want to marry Qi Lingxuan anymore. He doesnât want to marry me at all. Besides, his status in the Qi family is very low. If I marry him, our family wonât get anything out of it. We might even be bullied by First Madam because of him.ân/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
âI want to marry Second Young Master.â
Mrs. Tan thought this idea was better and agreed, âThen think of a way to make Second Young Master like you.â
Tan Wenjing had the same thought before, but after what Zhang Xinya did this morning, there was no time to think of a way and carry it out. âI have to get Second Master to marry me in the next two days. Otherwise, I wonât be able to continue living here.â
âThen what should you do? You canât use drugs in the Qi family.â
âI donât know.â
Tan Wenjing was also very frustrated.
At this moment, there was a knock on the door.
Tan Wenjing calmed down and quickly said to her mother, âSomeone is coming. Talk to you later.â
With that, she hung up the phone and quickly pinched her thigh. After forcing her tears out, she walked towards the door.
When she opened the door, she saw a servant standing outside.
âMiss Tan, the makeup you bought is here.â
âIâ¦â Tan Wenjing wanted to say that she didnât buy any makeup, but she suddenly stopped. She looked at the makeup box in the servantâs hand and felt that there must be something she needed in this box. She took the makeup box and said to the servant,â Thank you. â
Then, she closed the door.
She took the makeup box and took a closer look. There was nothing different outside. She walked to the table with the makeup and placed it on the table, thinking about what was inside and who gave it to her.
At this moment, a message came through.
She quickly took her phone and looked at the message.
It was from an unknown number.
The message was: The makeup inside can bewitch men and make them fall in love with your body. You definitely need it now.
Looking at the message, Tan Wenjingâs heart started racing.
She really needed this kind of makeup.
But who was this person?
Why did this person help her?
What was the personâs motive?
The person seemed to know that she had a lot of doubts and sent another message: âI donât want you to marry Qi Lingxuan.â
âIs the person Qi Lingxuanâs admirer?â Tan Wenjing felt that it must be so. With Qi Lingxuanâs looks, even if he was an illegitimate son, there would definitely be many women who liked him.
At this thought, she was relieved.
She put her phone aside and started to open the makeup box. There was only a bottle of perfume inside.
There were only a few words written on the perfume: A perfume that can make men go crazy just by smelling it.
Looking at these words, Tan Wenjingâs heart skipped a beat.
She quickly tore off the words on it and decided to tell First Madam about her plan to move out tomorrow. Then, she would make a move tonight when Qi Ming returned.
