Chapter 392: The Desperate Couple
Yan Jin felt no guilt at all for killing someone. He only regretted that he had not really achieved his goal and Zhuang Hui died just like that.
"My cousin is incredibly beautiful, but unfortunately, she's too stupid and doesn't know how to adapt to current events."
Yan Jin's tone was cold, but his expression could not hide his anger and annoyance.
He didn't care whether Zhuang Hui was dead or alive.
But he was angry that Zhuang Hui was out of control.
Zhuang Hui should have been his concubine.
We should be like Xiao and add fragrance to his life.
Unfortunately, a woman like Zhuang Hui is too ungrateful.
Xiao looked at him and forced a smile on her face. Yan Jin didn't feel guilty at all, but she was still a little scared.
"She...she doesn't know how to appreciate my kindness. If she were smart enough and willing to come to our house, both I and my husband would take good care of her."
Xiao shook his head when he said this, and even convinced himself.
She slowly raised her eyes and glanced at Yan Jin, "Husband, you..."
Yan Jin interrupted her, frowned, and fixed his eyes on her, still somewhat displeased.
"What did you say to her that day?"
"Why would she commit suicide out of the blue?"
According to the chess game set by Yan Jin, after being humiliated, Zhuang Hui should explain something to him, at least to prevent him from damaging the relationship between him and the Xiao family.
It's not that he has planned everything out.
Zhuang Hui has been so cowardly since she was a child.
I was bullied and dared not say a word.
In some cases, she is clearly the victim, but if the person involved does not want to cause trouble, she will take the initiative to settle the matter.
With her personality, it was perfectly normal for her to be targeted by someone like him.
As long as Zhuang Hui explains to him.
At that time, he would comfort her, tell her not to think too much, and coax her to have tea or cakes.
By then, Zhuang Hui was unconscious, so he could do whatever he wanted.
When you wake up, the matter is already settled.
Even if Zhuang Hui regretted it, it was too late.
At that time, she had no choice but to be a concubine.
Unless she doesn't want to live.
Yan Jin thought that he was not a despicable person, and he had never thought of forcing Zhuang Hui to death.
This is the outcome that no one wants to see.
Everything was going smoothly, but Zhuang Hui ignored it and would rather jump into the lake than marry him!
This is really too much of a humiliation to Yan Jin.
So he began to suspect that Xiao was pretending to obey and had said something to Zhuang Hui in the middle of the process.
Xiao wiped away her tears vigorously and looked at Yan Jin with grievance, "It's unfair, my husband!"
"I have been following your instructions from beginning to end. I would never dare to add anything to the story, for fear of ruining your plan."
Not only Yan Jin couldn't stand Zhuang Hui's aloof appearance, but Xiao herself couldn't stand it either.
That little bitch Zhuang Hui, relying on her decent-looking face, acts noble everywhere and thinks she is always superior to others.
Xiao herself also wanted to see what it would be like if such a noble Zhuang Hui became someone's concubine one day and had to be subservient in everything.
In his heart, Xiao also wanted to break the beauty's pride.
I also want to see a great beauty like Zhuang Hui, bowing down before her and serving her as her master.
But Zhuang Hui was so ungrateful that she chose to commit suicide by jumping into the river.
Xiao was also a little unhappy in her heart.
But this time, she was more afraid than unhappy.
She was afraid that after Zhuang Hui died and went to the underworld, she would see through the truth and would turn into a ghost to seek revenge on them regardless of anything.
Yan Jin didn't care.
But she couldn't just ignore everything like Yan Jin did.
Yan Jin's eyes fell on her face. Seeing that her expression did not seem fake, he finally withdrew his suspicious and inquiring gaze.
He said calmly, "You'd better not lie."
"If I find out later that Zhuang Hui jumped into the river because you were there to interfere, guess what I'll do?"
What Yan Jin hates most is someone getting out of his control or someone plotting against him.
Xiao's appearance really didn't suit his taste.
If it weren't for her good reputation, virtue, and the fact that she was a very timely person, she would be able to perceive what he wanted at the first moment, and would take the initiative to give him advice and help him get what he wanted without him saying anything.
Among them was Zhuang Hui, whom he was thinking about.
But unfortunately, before Yan Jin could put the food in her mouth, Zhuang Hui died.
There was a hint of annoyance between Yan Jin's brows. When he looked at Xiao, who was standing aside with a pale face, the disgust in his eyes became even stronger.
After all, Xiao was his wife, so she could tell what was bothering him.
When looking at him, she showed a flattering smile.
"My dear husband, if you are truly unwilling to accept this, I am not without a solution."
I will always think about it until I have tasted it.
A wife is not as good as a concubine, a concubine is not as good as a secret lover, and being able to steal is not as good as not being able to steal.
Men's bad nature has been like this since ancient times.
Yan Jin glanced at her and frowned slightly, "The person is already dead, what can you do?"
Could she possibly bring Zhuang Hui back to life?
If she had that ability, why would she always be so servile in front of me and let me do whatever I tell her to do?
Xiao curled the corners of her mouth.
A hint of cruelty flashed across her brows. She tugged at the handkerchief in her hand and said slowly through gritted teeth, "When I got married, my mother gave me a secret medicine."
She lowered her brow slightly.
"At that time, my mother said that there would always be fighting within the inner chambers, and she was afraid that I wouldn't be able to handle those vicious concubines, so she gave me this medicine."
"Mother, if you take this medicine, it can bring the dead back to life for half an hour, but only half an hour."
It seemed that her mother had found it for her from a master at a high price.
Only she, her personal maid, and her most trusted nanny knew about this medicine.
My mother originally thought that if one day she was killed by a cruel concubine, taking this medicine would prevent her from dying with hatred.
Of course, there are other uses.
"Mother said that there are often cases of people being framed for murder in the harem."
"She was also afraid that I would be framed, so she thought that if she had a pill like this, it would at least give me a few more chances to defend myself."
When Xiao said this, a bitter smile appeared on his face.
Unfortunately, the mother later thought that these things were of no use in the inner house. After all, in the eyes of outsiders, Yan Jin really loved her deeply.
But whether she really loves him deeply or not, only she herself knows.
Xiao bit her lip and looked at Yan Jin with a look full of flattery. That secret medicine was her token of allegiance to please her husband.
She raised the corner of her lip and tugged at her handkerchief vigorously, "With this thing, even if Zhuang Hui's body is already cold, it can suddenly warm her up."
"She can be alive for half an hour."
And half an hour was enough time for Yan Jin to act anyway.
After all, when Yan Jin was with me, he always finished quickly, was always absent-minded, and was a bit perfunctory.
No matter what, half an hour would not be enough to stay with that little bitch Zhuang Hui.
Yan Jin frowned.
"Half an hour?"
Although he felt somewhat dissatisfied.
But he had never even eaten meat before.
Although it is only half an hour now, it is still better than not being able to eat anything from beginning to end.
What a pity, such a beauty.
Yan Jin's eyes fell on Xiao, "You are quite sensible. Aren't we all going to the Zhuang Mansion tomorrow?"
"When the time comes, you will send the servants away from the mourning hall and have them guard the place for me. It would be best if you could prepare a pill for me so that she doesn't scream."
Although, not making any sound is a bit of a letdown.
Can--
There was a hint of excitement in Yan Jin's eyes.
But he had never experienced what it felt like to get entangled with someone in a mourning hall.
Although what Xiao said was a bit crazy, it actually pleased him.
He even stretched out his hand, with a gentle smile on his face, and touched the top of Xiao's head, which was a rare occurrence.
"My dear wife, you are a woman of eloquence. There is no one in this world more virtuous than you, and no one who understands my thoughts better than you."
"No matter how many people I have, you are always the most caring one."
