Chapter 58: Scheming Beauty vs. Dark Minister 020

"Aunt, are you still going to do that now? Are you still going to treat me like this? Why do you have to force me?"

When my aunt heard this, she became extremely angry, and the smile on her face disappeared completely.

Switch to a dark, sinister and cunning look.

"As a woman, you eat my food, wear my clothes, and use my things every day. What's wrong with you giving something to me? What's wrong with selling you to an old man? You are a worthless thing in the first place. Now you have made me lose both my money and my life. How can I swallow this? You shameless bastard, take her away and teach her a lesson!"

The people who were called over were the strong men in the village. Perhaps they were willing to follow because my aunt rewarded them with money.

Hatsuri realized something was wrong and tried to break free, but they held her down.

"Do you think you can take me?"

Seeing her contemptuous tone, the aunt teased her, "You came out alone, and I have been waiting here for a long time. Do you really think I was not prepared? You can't leave today."

Someone was pointing a knife at Hatsuri from behind, and she couldn't move.

I had no choice but to cooperate with them.

My aunt pretended to be concerned and said, "Hatsuri, I told you not to be so naughty. Isn't it better to listen to your aunt?"

Having said that, I planned to take Hatsuri to a place.

The man just took a step forward.

The sound of horse hooves could be heard from behind, and only one sentence was heard: "Who dares to take her away?"

My aunt and the others looked back and saw a handsome man who looked very powerful.

The horse rushed directly towards them, and everyone hid aside in fear.

My aunt was so frightened that she fell to the ground.

Chu Li was picked up by Xie Huai'an and sat directly on the horse.

My aunt saw that this person was not a simple person, and was afraid that he might be the master behind Chu Li?

Then he said in a somewhat annoyed tone: "Sir, do you know the relationship between me and the girl behind you?"

The soldiers behind Xie Huai'an also arrived.

When looking at the woman in front of them, everyone was shocked!

The special thing that the woman in this portrait should have is actually a real person!

This kind of painting looks like neither a human nor a ghost.

It actually exists!

Xie Huai'an was a little surprised when he first saw it.

All the distinct qualities that he had heard Hatsuri describe as what her portrait should have were now vividly realized before his eyes.

This aunt is the epitome of an old witch.

"Of course I know."

My aunt is a smart person.

I knew that the person in front of me must be someone extraordinary, perhaps he was the famous young master.

Now that they have surrounded me with their troops, I have no choice but to retreat first and then advance. What's more, this is their territory.

Then her tone softened.

"Sir, let's talk nicely. I came to Kyoto to talk to Hatsuri. You said that she came to Kyoto without telling her family, which made us worry so much. That's why I came here to look for her. Now I'm relieved to see that she has you to protect her, but she has to give me an explanation, right?"

Xie Huai'an's face suddenly darkened, and his clear voice was filled with suppressed anger: "You said to explain? What explanation do you have?"

Chu Li was blocked by Xie Huai'an behind him.

Seeing this situation, my aunt could only leave to save herself, so she said, "If that's the case, I won't bother you any more."

At this time, Hatsuri didn't want to let them go.

"Aunt, why are you leaving?"

Xie Huai'an also responded: "I have a mansion, would you like to live there, aunt?"

When she heard that they were willing to entertain her, her aunt's expression and thoughts suddenly changed, and she acted like a fence-sitter.

"If you invite me, I will respectfully obey you! But I'm telling you, Chuli, you must not be arrogant because of your favor."

Hatsuri had no intention of keeping her here.

But Xie Huai'an naturally has his own way of doing things.

Late at night, the aunt looked around Xie Huai'an's mansion and was even satisfied. She even had some bad ideas in her mind.

After finding Hatsuri's residence, she deliberately opened the door violently and went in. Hatsuri was changing clothes at the time, and was frightened by her aunt's voice so she quickly wrapped herself up.

"Hatsuri, you are so lucky?"

Chuli walked out from behind the screen and looked at her aunt's proud face, which was completely different from the one she showed in front of Xie Huai'an.

"Aunt, what are you going to do now?"

"Are you just trying to keep things quiet and not let your noble son know about your previous marriage?"

Chu Li sneered: "What kind of marriage do I have? You're surprised that I agreed to it?"

"Since ancient times, marriage has always been decided by parents. Since your parents are not around, I am the one who decided it for you!"

The aunt's voice was very harsh. She stood up angrily, grabbed Hatsuri's hand, smiled viciously, and looked at her with disgust.

"You are just a woman of humble origins. How can you deserve everything here? You have a younger sister at home. I'm sure you must remember that if I hadn't helped you, you wouldn't have what you have now. You must let your sister serve the young master with you!"

When Hatsuri heard this, she felt as if her worldview had been shattered by the ancients.

Is this something a normal person would say?

She shook off her aunt's hand and protested: "I tell you, it's impossible. If you hadn't found someone, I wouldn't have thought of dying on the cliff. If Xie Huai'an hadn't saved me, I would have died long ago!"

"You should have died a long time ago! You are still alive because of me! You should repay me! Repay our whole family!"

Chuli didn't want to waste time talking to her. She felt nauseous when she saw her hideous face.

She walked straight to the door, but was grabbed tightly by her again. Chu Li struggled hard to break free, but was pushed hard onto the table beside her.

All the cups on the table fell to the ground and broke, making a loud noise.

Xie Huai'an just walked to the door and saw the scene in front of him. His aunt pretended to be a good person and said in surprise: "Li'er, why are you so careless? How can you not even stand steadily?"

This accusation made Xie Huai'an furious.

Chu Li felt dizzy at this moment, her face turned pale, and she fell down in an instant. Fortunately, Xie Huai'an caught her in time and immediately called for help.

Fortunately, the soldiers waiting outside immediately brought the palace physician out as quickly as possible.

Seeing this, my aunt wanted to escape, but was blocked by Xie Huai'an's sword.

All I heard was the man saying coldly: "If anything happens to Chuli, my sword will kill anyone."

My aunt was really frightened this time. She was sweating all over and trembling all over. She knelt on the ground and begged for mercy: "It has nothing to do with me, it has nothing to do with me. Who knew she was so fragile now? She could never be as weak as she is now when we made her carry water and tortured her before!"

When Xie Huai'an heard this, he felt heartbroken, his face became even gloomier, his eyes were like ice, and his black eyes contained extremely dangerous anger.

"It seems like you really don't want to live anymore."
