"Meng Qi, will this work?" Du Yue asked worriedly.
"If Lan Ziye doesn't die, we must die!" Meng Qi said viciously.
"What if Lan Ziye doesn't fall for it and doesn't go to the haunted building?" Qian Hong asked anxiously, "Should we go to the haunted building to take a look?"
"You go if you want to go. I don't dare to go to that place!" Du Yue said timidly, shrinking his neck.
Meng Qi fell into deep thought. After a while, her expression suddenly turned sinister and she gritted her teeth and said, "If Lan Ziye doesn't go to the haunted building, we will kill Yin Xueer and then dump her body near the haunted building! Let's see if Lan Ziye will feel guilty and whether he can continue to stay in Lanxuan Academy."
"Murder? How can this be? I have never killed anyone!" Du Yue became even more panicked, and began to regret listening to Meng Qi's instigation. He kidnapped Yin Xueer on the way, knocked Yin Xueer unconscious and brought her here.
"Then try it now!" Meng Qi glanced at Du Yue and said viciously.
In fact, she had never killed anyone and was extremely scared, but she couldn't show it. This idea was hers, so she had to stick to it to the end.
"But she is Yin Xueer! Although the Yin family is not one of the five major families, it is also quite powerful, and her aunt married into the Lan family. If people knew..." Qian Hong felt more and more scared as she spoke. She thought for a while and suggested, "Why don't we send her back to their class while she is still asleep and pretend that this incident never happened, okay? She shouldn't have seen us, right?" Qian Hong was a little uncertain about the last sentence.
"Don't get it wrong. We've been cornered by Lan Ziye. If we drop out of Lanxuan Academy, do you know what awaits us? No family in high society will be willing to marry girls like us. We will be abandoned by our families and eventually given away as rewards to those lowly families who work so hard for our family. We will be ridiculed by our sisters forever and live a life worse than that of a concubine's daughter, or even worse than that of an illegitimate daughter!" Meng Qi said excitedly, "As long as Lan Ziye doesn't die, there will be no way out for us!"
Du Hong and Qian Hong still looked hesitant and afraid.
Meng Qi angrily kicked over the stool and said excitedly, "Alright! If you want to release Yin Xue'er, then let her go! It's best to tell everyone in the school that we kidnapped Yin Xue'er and tricked Lan Ziye into going to the haunted building! I want to see if Lan Xiaoqi and Chu Xining will be grateful to you!"
"But..." Du Hong was almost scared to tears. She now regretted provoking Lan Ziye in order to curry favor with Jin Ruoxi, and even more regretted accompanying Meng Qi in going crazy. She now envied Zhu Rongrong who was captured by her uncle and brought back to the family. At least she didn't have to be involved in this matter.
"Alright, there's no turning back. We've already done what we did. What's there to be afraid of?" Meng Qi continued irritably. "As long as Lan Ziye dies in the haunted building, everything will be resolved. Yin Xue'er is very timid. If we threaten her a few times, she won't dare to tell anyone."
"Even if people knew we kidnapped Yin Xue'er, at most we were just playing a prank to get back at her. Who can prove we were involved in Lan Ziye's death?"
"As long as we grit our teeth and refuse to admit it, without evidence, Chu Xining and the Lan family can't do anything to us. Besides, no matter how much Chu Xining likes that androgynous person, he wouldn't fall out with our Meng family over a dead person!"
