Sucking in a deep breath, Bai Yan had to work desperately hard to keep in the unease in her heart: âAll of you go out!â
Taken aback by the strong reaction, the chief eventually nodded: âOkay, give us a shout if you need anything, I will have my people do as you order.â
After saying this, the man then began to head for the outside with her wife in hand. But just before he could step through the doorway, another call came out.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
âWait! â
Halting in his step: âIs there anything else?â
âI need some herbs. Within half an hour, bring them all to me!â
âTell me the names, Iâll have them ready by that time.â
Chief Wu Wei has decided. Since his wife was willing to believe this girl then he too would believe her.
â¦â¦
Within the Mu Manor, Muzhen was currently sitting on the sandalwood chair with her eyes showing extreme resentment.
âElder,â a shadowy figure drifts through the door and takes to his knee.
âIâll ask you one question!â Muzhen eye flickered with a frosted tint, âThat day, did you guys really finish off and kill that woman? I want the truthful answer!â
Sheâs not going to forget the chiefâs word back there about how their eyes look very similar! Adding in the fact that the bitchâs face held such strong resemblance, itâs hard to deny the wariness creeping up inside.
âElder,â musing over his answer, the shadowy figure appears tied between something. âThat day the woman was seriously injured by us. Thereâs no way she could have survived.â
Muzhenâs complexion sank again: âWhen you pursued her, was she pregnant?â
Trembling so slightly,?So in the end the truth got leakedâ¦.
âItâs like this Elder⦠That day we could see she was about eight months pregnant. All things considered, that child could not have survived with the mother.â
Even if the child did live, it wouldnât have lasted long.
âAnd why was such a crucial piece of information not reported to me!â Slamming her fist down at the table, the old beauty instantly blew apart the furniture and allowed the tea splash across the floor.
âBecause the child is bound to die, so, so Iâ¦â
Bang!
Sending a direct kick over, she sends the shadow tumbling to the ground. Those eyes radiated hatred like a bat out of hell: âHow dare you hide this from me! If you are so sure she is dead then you donât need to live either!â
Due to Chief Wu Weiâs sudden inquiry about the woman from years ago, this ruthless and black hearted witch did what any evil villain would do â she murdered anyone involved with that case. This one who just returned was out in a mission so thatâs how the individual managed to survive till today.
But in the end, the fate of death still befalls the shadowâs headâ¦.
Piercing the manâs heart with her blade, Muzhen claps her hand to summon a servant: âDrag this corpse away and bury him in a mass grave.â
âYes, Elder. â
An elderly old man slowly emerged from the side, his face indifferent and cold when eyeing the pool of blood. Lifting up the body as told, he went about with his business as usual. Its just that this time around, instead of a smooth burial like the previous times, there was a ghostly figure who tailed him and stole the body away once he wasnât lookingâ¦.
Regarding all this, Muzhen naturally didnât know nor expect. In her wretched head, thereâs only the burning hatred for revenge against Bai Yan.
âTo think that slut bore the young lordâs child. Sheâs nothing but a commoner, base don what can she have his blood?â Gnashing her teeth in jealous hate, the old beauty rubs her own belly in utter resentment. âAnd thereâs that blasted daughter of hers. No wonder sheâs such an eyesore as soon as I saw her. A slut would always give birth to a slut, only knowing how to seduce the opposite sex!â
