Chapter Eight: Assassins Sent by the Qin Family



"ah!"

Before Su Xiaoning could react, her small body was lifted up by Su Qingcai like a chick and rushed straight into the woods not far away!

The assassin in the woods was stunned to see someone flying towards him. He tried to dodge, but the person seemed to have perfect aim, heading straight for him!

"Thump!"

The two heads collided, the assassin was hit so hard he saw stars, and Su Xiaoning was also dizzy and fell to the ground, unable to get up.

Upon seeing that he had hit the target, Su Qingcai quickly chased after him, grabbed the assassin by the collar, and his gentle eyes were now filled with coldness.

"Speak! Who sent you?"

Su Xiaoning didn't hear what Su Qingcai said. She stood up dizzily, rubbing her head, which was now swollen with a bump, tears welling up in her eyes from the pain. "You used me as a weapon without even saying a word! Give me an explanation!"

Su Qingcai ignored Su Xiaoning and continued to confront the assassin.

The assassin turned his head away, remaining silent, looking as if he was determined to die rather than submit.

"Not going to talk? Very well." Su Qingcai sneered, his eyes turning cold. "Even if you don't talk, I have plenty of ways to make you talk. I'm not some virtuous gentleman who doesn't know how to use torture..."

"Hmph, what can you do to me in a shabby fishing village?" the assassin finally spoke, but his words were sarcastic.

After listening to their conversation, Su Xiaoning roughly understood the situation. Although she was very unhappy that Su Qingcai was using her as a weapon, she would still choose to stand with Su Qingcai against this person who didn't seem like a good person.

"Are you mistaken? We have plenty of tools for killing fish in our fishing village." Su Xiaoning jumped in front of the assassin, giving him a sweet smile that sent chills down his spine.

"There are many ways to kill fish in the fishing village, and they have all the necessary knives. How about I tell you the simplest way? First, use the sharpest knife to gut the fish and take out all the internal organs, just like removing a person's heart and abdomen. Then, remove all the scales, just like skinning a person. Finally, wash it clean. Depending on your taste, you might also need to chop off the fish head..."

Su Xiaoning's smile grew brighter and brighter, while the assassin felt a chill gradually emanating from his body.

Su Qingcai couldn't help but find it a little funny. He listened quietly as Su Xiaoning vividly described the process of killing the fish, finding it quite interesting.

In the silent forest, only Su Xiaoning's voice could be heard. She deliberately lowered her voice, and the smile on her face gradually became distorted.

Under such immense mental pressure, the assassin finally collapsed and fell to the ground.

"Stop talking, stop talking! I'll confess! The Qin family sent me!"

The Qin family?

Su Qingcai was stunned for a moment, and then his heart was filled with anger.

He had only been stranded in this small fishing village for a few days, and he had only recently come into contact with the Qin family. Why did they act as if they had some deep-seated grudge and wanted to send assassins to eliminate him?!

Su Qingcai narrowed his sharp eyes and dragged the assassin out. Su Xiaoning quickly chased after him, "Hey, where are you going?"

"Go to the Qin family and settle accounts with them."

Su Qingcai's voice was as cold as ice. He didn't turn his head and walked straight toward the Qin family.

...

After Qin Sang handed over all the Qin family's money and grain, the villagers, fearing he might try something again, temporarily placed him and his two children under house arrest at the Qin family's residence. When Su Qingcai arrived, he directly told the villagers guarding him that he wanted to see the Qin family. The villagers, who all respected him as "Lord Fish God," did not stop him, and Su Xiaoning followed him inside.

As soon as I stepped into the courtyard, I saw a familiar figure emerge from one of the side rooms.

Su Xiaoning, with her sharp eyes, pointed directly and exclaimed, "Qin Yunyun is over there!"

Su Qingcai's eyes narrowed, and he grabbed the assassin and rushed in front of Qin Yunyun.

He slammed the assassin to the ground and said coldly, "I have no grudge against your Qin family, so why did you send someone to kill me?"

Upon seeing the assassin lying on the ground, Qin Yunyun's breath caught in her throat. She instinctively took two steps back and slumped onto the threshold.

"I don't know what you're talking about. I don't know this person at all..."

Tears welled up in Qin Yunyun's eyes. She bit her lip and looked at Su Qingcai, appearing pitiful.

"Stop pretending!" Su Qingcai shouted impatiently. "I will retaliate tenfold for everything that anyone has done to me. If this is something your Qin family did, I will absolutely not let you get away with it!"

"I...I really don't know!" Qin Yunyun denied through gritted teeth, while subtly giving the assassin who had fallen to the ground a wink.

The assassin shuddered, thinking of his family who were being held in the enemy's hands. He steeled himself and rammed his head against the door!

"No!" Su Xiaoning shouted, trying to stop the suicide assassin, but it was too late.

The assassin's body slumped to the ground, blood gushing from his head where he had been struck. He seemed to die with his eyes wide open, staring intently at Qin Yunyun in front of him.

Qin Yunyun was stunned. She was indeed signaling the assassin to commit suicide, but she never expected that the assassin would commit suicide in this way in front of her!

Faced with the assassin's horrific death, Qin Yunyun's eyes rolled back, and she immediately fainted.

When she woke up again, she was still slumped on the threshold, with the gruesome death of the killer in front of her, and Su Qingcai looking indifferent and Su Xiaoning waiting to watch the show with her arms crossed not far away.

"Ah!" Qin Yunyun screamed and scrambled into the courtyard, getting away from the assassin's body.

"Can you confess now?" Su Qingcai blocked Qin Yunyun's path, her eyes gleaming with a cold light.

Qin Yunyun's expression suddenly changed, and she shouted.

"Who are you? How did you get into my house?! Get out! Daddy, I need Daddy! Where did Daddy go? Waaah..."

Qin Yunyun was crying and laughing at the same time. She sat on the ground and kicked her legs hard. She was like a madwoman. She didn't answer Su Qingcai's questions and just kept crying and shouting.

"No way, this young lady was scared out of her mind so easily?" Su Xiaoning's eye twitched, feeling speechless. "What should we do? You probably won't get the answers you want to know this time."

Su Qingcai pursed her lips tightly, clearly not expecting this situation to occur.

Never mind, the situation isn't good right now, I'll ask again next time!

Su Qingcai snorted coldly and turned away.

Su Xiaoning followed Su Qingcai away. When she returned to Aunt Xu's house, she was sitting there when she suddenly remembered something.

By the way, Su Qingcai inexplicably used her as a weapon to smash the assassin, and she hasn't settled the score with him yet!

Su Xiaoning frowned and stormed out. When she pushed open Su Qingcai's door, she saw him sitting in the bathtub!
