Chapter 232 The Ghost King’s Bride (11)



"Their lives are not as important as mine."

"It seems that you are even more cold-blooded than I thought." In that case, Xie Zhiyi didn't need to be polite.

He clapped his hands three times, and Old Jin finally arrived. "Master, please tell me what I need."

Even if the surveillance cameras were turned off, the villa would immediately have power restored. Old Jin had witnessed the scene unfold. After realizing that everything was a plot orchestrated by the young master, Old Jin was filled with admiration for him. At the same time, he felt deep contempt for He Wenxiu, who hadn't known what was good for her.

Lao Jin thought that it was his honor that the young master fell in love with He Wenxiu. Even if it meant taking his life, it would be his due.

In an era where the strong are respected, the weak are not worthy of making demands on the strong.

His young master was tolerant enough.

"Leave a bed for Mr. He. From today on, he will live in the villa."

Old Jin was in a dilemma. No one except him had ever lived in the villa, unless someone had died. So the young master meant that He Wenxiu would die sooner or later, and letting him live there would only make life worse.

Lao Jin wrote down the young master's request and waited for him to give further orders.

Xie Zhiyi handed a piece of paper to Lao Jin. "Find me the medicine on the list tomorrow."

"This..." Ginseng and deer antlers are easy to find, but Tianshan Snow Lotus has to be dug up, and it would be too late even if it was airlifted.

After receiving the young master's cold gaze, Lao Jin chose to shut up.

"He Wenxiu, I'll give you one night to think it over. If you can't satisfy me, I'll kill one of your relatives a day until you change your mind. Don't hold out too much hope, my knife is swifter than you think."

Xu Jing said: "I am an orphan."

"So what? Is there no one in this world you care about?" Everyone has selfish desires, things they can't let go of. He waited for He Wenxiu to lower his noble head, kneel on the ground and apologize like a pug. He believed that time would teach He Wenxiu a lesson.

Anyone who refuses to accept a toast will regret his decision.

Xu Jing sighed. He felt a headache about the character setting of the male supporting role, and felt pitiful and sad.

To highlight the grandeur of the hero and heroine's love, the supporting male character is often portrayed as someone who can't get the love they want, or someone with physical or mental defects. The protagonist's status as the protagonist isn't due to their sheer charm, but rather to the supporting male character's idiocy, which serves to highlight the protagonist's intelligence. This kind of characterization is completely illogical.

Assuming that the male supporting character is stupid, evil and unaware of it, then why should the male lead, who is not on the same starting line as him, become his competitor?

The villain should also respect the character setting, instead of existing to cater to the male and female protagonists.

Back to Xie Zhiyi, despite having a rough life, the character's background is left vague, and his evil side is placed in opposition to Xue Mingqi, using his badness to highlight the hero's greatness. It's obvious that both of them are trash, but they still have to find a good one among the trash. This setting is really stupid.

Xu Jing was too lazy to act like a saintly father. After all, he was not the male supporting character's biological father, so there was no need to go around in circles for him.

"It doesn't matter. Kill if you want. The greater the sin of killing, the more sins you will commit."

A sneer crossed Xie Zhiyi's lips. "I never believe in gods and Buddhas."

If there really was one, he wouldn't be living in limbo. Instead of believing in the nonsense of gods and Buddhas, it's better to take control of your own life. Even if your hands are bloody, it's better than living in fear and hoping for a little hope.

"To be precise, you only have ten days to live. If you kill someone, you will lose one day of your life. If you don't believe me, you can try it."

Lao Jin said angrily, "Don't exaggerate, you charlatan. The young master will live forever. As long as you are willing to be the young master's nourishment, the young master will get what he wants."

"Does your Xie family control all of humanity?" Xu Jing smiled disdainfully.

"Do you know that there are always people better than you? Ugly crimes will eventually come to light, and those who die then will always be those who are conceited and don't believe in the changing world. Put away your arrogant face, and listen to me if you want to survive."

Xie Zhiyi stopped Lao Jin and asked gently, "So, what are you going to do?"

“Release the kindness within you to usher in tomorrow.”

"Impossible." His good intentions had long been buried in the quagmire, and there was no turning back.

"I'm talking about the people behind you. If you die, they won't be able to survive. Old Jin, go tell the people in the Xie family's old house, if you want to continue to maintain the glory of the Xie family, please do as I say."

Lao Jin looked at Xie Zhiyi, who nodded. "Just do as he says."

Regardless of whether the people in the old house agree or not, at least at this stage, they will agree with He Wenxiu's unrealistic idea until someone is found to replace him.

The next day, Lao Jin brought two pieces of good news from the old house. The medicine had been found, and the Xie family would also do the second thing He Wenxiu requested, but how well they would do it was unknown.

After getting the medicine, Xu Jing asked Lao Jin to borrow a room to start refining the elixir.

Lao Jin was very generous and gave Xu Jing a closed room to facilitate his study and alchemy.

After everything was done, Lao Jin went to find Xie Kunning.

Xie Kunning was much more boisterous during the day than Xie Zhiyi at night. He had no idea what He Wenxiu was doing behind his back. But his sixth sense told him that this Huazi Liandan was up to no good.

"Master, Wen Rong is here."

"Didn't I tell you not to bring any cats or dogs home?"

The gentle smile on her face, even though she was called a cat or a dog, froze. If it weren't for the fact that he was a perfect container, she would have slapped this ignorant brat in the face.

"Master, Wen Rong can also cure your illness. If she can satisfy all your needs, can you..." Lao Jin wiped his neck, which made Xie Kunning frown. "Although this Master doesn't like beggars, he also doesn't like being touched by women, especially women with a strong smell."

Xie Kunning was not Xie Zhiyi. He didn't respect etiquette like his foolish brother and didn't know how to politely refuse people. In his dictionary, there was only himself, no one else.

"Master, this is the will of the old house. You'd better not disobey the orders of the elders."

Xie Kunning sneered. "The beggar said I only have ten days to live. Does he want me to be in turmoil for ten days?"

"That's not what they meant."

"Even if you have any, hold it in. Young Master, I cannot tolerate any sand in my eyes. Tell that woman surnamed Wen to get out of here."

"Master, perhaps Miss Wen can help you clear up your doubts. You shouldn't give up any chance to save yourself."

"Then give her five minutes to speak."

"Okay." Lao Jin was delighted and followed Xie Kunning to the hall.

Wen Rong had been waiting in the hall for a long time. What Lao Jin and Xie Zhiyi had just said had reached her ears through Xue Mingqi.

Can a person change so quickly? Is it true that there are two different personalities during the day and at night?
