Sang Zhixia was once a promising agricultural博士, but after a fall, she became a poor concubine forced into a substitute marriage! On her wedding day, the groom rushed into the bridal chamber an...
Chapter 715 Will you find fault? Won't you let Chen Jing'an teach you?
Xu Yu waved his hand slightly.
Gui Lianzhi felt relieved and quickly bowed and took his leave: "I will secretly investigate the matter you asked about today when I return. When I have new clues, I will send them to you as soon as possible."
As if afraid that Xu Yu might not trust him, Gui Lianzhi also promised: "As for what happened today, you can rest assured. After I leave this door, I will never mention it to anyone except my father."
Xu Yu sneered and said nothing.
Gui Lianzhi didn't dare to stay any longer and turned around and left.
Tian Ying'er gritted her teeth and said, "Just let him go like that?"
"Even though he claims he doesn't participate in trafficking, it's because someone is willing to spend money that someone would be so unscrupulous as to traffic them. Otherwise, how could so many innocent children and women be harmed if it weren't for people like them?"
Profitability is the decisive factor in taking risks.
The buyer kept saying that he was unaware of the crime.
In fact, whether it is buying or selling, among this series of dirty things, is there any one who is truly innocent?
Xu Yu ignored Tian Ying'er's anger. He simply pinched Sang Zhixia's fingertips and said softly, "Zhizhi?"
"I'm fine."
Sang Zhixia smiled bitterly and said, "It's just that I've only seen a limited amount of worldly experience, and I haven't come to my senses yet."
Sang Zhixia looked at Tian Ying'er, who was about to say something, and said slowly, "Even if we leave him alive here today, it will not help with the evil deeds he has done in the past, and it won't change anything."
"But……"
“When you cut grass, you must remove the roots. When you kill a snake, you must cut it off at the seven-inch mark.”
Sang Zhixia firmly grasped Xu Yu's hand, lowered her eyes, and said softly, "No hurry."
"Once we find out what's going on, we'll naturally know what to do next."
Sang Zhixia and Xu Yu looked at each other and understood each other's meaning, and neither of them spoke.
Tian Ying'er blinked as if she understood, and after a long while she whispered, "Then these people will pay the price for their evil deeds, right?"
"Those abducted children and women, they..."
"There will be a result."
Sang Zhixia said, unable to discern emotion, "A new dynasty will be established, and the wasteland will be eliminated."
"No one can truly keep the wealth that grows from the greed of human flesh and blood..."
but……
Sang Zhixia suddenly seemed to remember something and asked suspiciously, "They've been out for half a day, right?"
"It was just a fight, why haven't you come back yet?"
Seeing the wrinkles between Sang Zhixia's eyebrows disappear, Xu Yu said gently, "It's not dark yet, there's no rush."
"How about you go inside and rest for a while while I take a look?"
Logically speaking, as long as Chen Jing'an is with him and there are people following him in secret, nothing will happen.
But thinking of the rampant and terrifying behavior of the local gentry, Sang Zhixia still hummed: "Go quickly and come back quickly. Don't linger outside when things are busy."
Xu Yu nodded good-naturedly and personally sent Sang Zhixia back. When he came out, he saw Tian Ying'er who was still outside and raised his eyebrows and smiled.
"You seem anxious to vent your anger on those who were harmed?"
Tian Ying'er has an instinctive trust and dependence on Sang Zhixia, but when facing Xu Yu alone, she feels a chill like a small animal seeing a wild beast.
Although Xu Yu always seemed to have a lazy look and a smile on his face, he was even more gentle and considerate when he was with Sang Zhixia, and was no different from the jade-faced young man described in storybooks and on the stage.
But Tian Ying'er was just afraid.
Tian Ying'er shrank her neck and whispered, "Yes, I am..."
“It’s very simple.”
Xu Yu brushed his sleeves and said slowly, "I heard that Xuantian Pavilion has considerable influence in Jiangnan."
"For such a large assassin organization, is it difficult to take the lives of a few people?"
Tian Ying'er's heart trembled slightly, as if she didn't understand what Xu Yu meant.
Xu Yu said casually: "I want to eradicate it completely, you don't need to."
"Do you know how to find fault? If not, let Chen Jing'an teach you?"
"He's just good at causing trouble."
When Chen Jing'an brought his men back, Xu Yu was not there.
When Chen Jingan learned what kind of job Xu Yu had assigned to her, she laughed angrily.
"Xu Yu asked me to teach you how to cause trouble for the Wei family's brothel?"
Tian Ying'er suppressed her awkwardness and nodded vigorously: "Yes!"
"He said you're really good at finding faults, and I'm sure you'll learn it once you teach me!"
Chen Jingan: “…”
At first glance, this sounds like a compliment.
If you think about it carefully, the person being praised will not feel comfortable at all.
Chen Jing'an looked at Tian Ying'er with a strange expression as she held the cup next to him with both hands. He cried out in surprise, his eyebrows raised as if he had seen a ghost. "What do you mean?"
"Poisoned?"
Tian Ying'er glared angrily: "I didn't, I didn't!"
"I just feel sorry for what happened to you before, and I want to apologize to you!"
"I'm sorry! I was mean and misunderstood you!"
Tian Ying'er apologized loudly and fiercely, then thrust the teacup into Chen Jing'an's hand with murderous intent: "Drink!"
"If you finish drinking it, it means you accept my apology!"
This was the first time in Chen Jing'an's life that he had seen such etiquette. He was stunned for a moment, then silently put the teacup to his lips and drank it all in one gulp under Tian Ying'er's gaze. He also cooperated by turning his wrist to reveal the bottom of the cup without a drop left.
Tian Ying'er was satisfied.
Chen Jingan placed his right hand on his left pulse, worried: "You really didn't poison me?"
"I don't want to die yet, you..."
"Just shut up!"
Tian Ying'er was impatient and covered Chen Jing'an's stinky mouth with both hands. She didn't notice the playful look in Chen Jing'an's eyes and gritted her teeth, "How on earth should I find fault with you?"
"Is my dad really that effective? Tell me what to do!"
Chen Jing'an pointed to her covered mouth to show that she was in a difficult situation.
Tian Ying'er quickly let go and sat down, urging with a cute face: "Hurry up, hurry up, tell me!"
Chen Jingan coughed a few times and lowered his voice in a mysterious manner: "Well, go find those two guys Xu Mingyang and Sang Yanyou."
"They have a lot of bad ideas, and they work."
Tian Ying'er rushed to catch the man, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Chen Jing'an slid his fingertips across the corner of his lips, which still seemed to have a trace of warmth, and couldn't help but smile softly.
Xu Mingyang and Sang Yanyou were reporting the results of this outing to Xu Yu.
After learning that the whole house was burned down by fire, Qingyun and his accomplices in the house were not spared.
Xu Yu looked at the two boys with tense faces and softened his tone, which was unusual for him: "Are you scared?"
Sang Yanyou stiffened his neck and opened his mouth, blurting out a weak voice: "Brother-in-law, we killed someone..."
Chen Jing'an took them there, but he just talked the whole time.
The ones who actually took action were two little bastards who thought they were just helping out.
Xu Mingyang and Sang Yanyou have grown up through many trials and tribulations, and have seen a lot of messy things.
But if I were to actually kill someone, this would be the first time...
Xu Mingyang was still holding on to his dignity outside, but when he saw his elder brother, his eyes were red and he lowered his head and said, "That Qingyun kept begging me before he died..."
"He said he would never do it again and would change his ways. Brother Chen let me make my own decision."
"I……"
"I still killed him."
