Fang Qingyue sneered, and the silver needle in her hand came even closer to her skin. The slight tremor made the tiny needle tip almost pierce her skin. "What do you think? Do you think you can force something out of me by arresting me?"
"You're just after money. I know you don't dare touch me. If you hurt me, not only will you lose the money, you'll also lose your position, or even your head!"
County Magistrate He's expression instantly turned gloomy. He knew that Fang Qingyue's words made sense.
If she really died, not only would he not gain any benefit, but it would bring him even greater trouble.
He snorted coldly, trying to threaten her: "Don't mess around! As long as you obey me, I can spare your life, otherwise..."
"What else?" Fang Qingyue refused to back down, her voice filled with absolute calmness. "If you really dare to touch me, do it now. I'm risking my life, what good can you get?"
Her tone was like a knife, and every word pierced into County Magistrate He's heart.
County Magistrate He's heart suddenly sank and cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
At this moment, he felt that he had completely lost the initiative.
This woman is so resolute.
"You!" County Magistrate He gritted his teeth in anger, and the sinister light in his eyes became stronger, but he did not dare to act rashly.
Fang Qingyue's silver needle was always hanging by her neck, and it would pierce the artery if she was not careful, which made County Magistrate He completely confused.
Seeing that County Magistrate He did not dare to force her any further, Fang Qingyue became even calmer.
She had made the right bet. These people were afraid of death and did not dare to take the risk of her life.
She spoke again, her voice tinged with sarcasm: "He Zhixian, you look like a local tyrant."
"You can exchange me for money, or you can get something from me, but don't forget that my life is much more valuable than the silver in your hand."
Her words deeply hurt the vanity of County Magistrate He, but County Magistrate He did not dare to get angry.
He looked at Fang Qingyue's cold eyes and could only swallow his anger.
"Since you want to make money from me, you should treat me well."
Fang Qingyue continued, her eyes as sharp as a knife, "From now on, I want to eat well and live well. Otherwise, I can't guarantee that I will die if I make a move!"
County Magistrate He was so choked by her words that his face turned pale and he clenched his fists tightly.
But in the end, he gritted his teeth and said coldly, "Okay! I want to see what tricks you can come up with!"
Although he was furious, he could do nothing about it.
If Fang Qingyue was really pushed into a corner, even if he didn't gain any benefit, he would end up in danger of being killed.
So he waved his hand, turned around and ordered his men: "You, prepare something delicious for her."
"I don't want to see what happened today again."
Fang Qingyue sneered in her heart as she watched County Magistrate He leave in disgrace. Although she had managed to escape from danger temporarily, the anger in her heart had not subsided.
"Sister..." Chi Yue's voice was filled with tears. She groped closer to Fang Qingyue with a worried look on her face. "You just... really scared me to death."
Fang Qingyue held Chi Yue's hand, patted it gently, and softened her voice: "It's okay, Chi Yue, we are fine."
She turned to look at Cheng Qingyuan and found that he looked solemn and his furrowed brows showed his anxiety.
"Qingyue...you are playing with fire." Cheng Qingyuan's voice was filled with deep worry.
Fang Qingyue smiled calmly: "They started the fire, I just borrowed the fire's momentum."
Outside the carriage, County Magistrate He suppressed his anger, glancing inside the car from time to time, thinking in his mind how to deal with the woman who was pressing him step by step.
At this moment, Fang Qingyue forcefully opened the car curtain, revealing her cold gaze.
"He Zhixian," Fang Qingyue's voice was filled with an aura that brooked no refusal. "I'm already several months pregnant, and my body can't handle the prolonged shaking. If you really want to exchange it for money, you'll have to wait until I'm dead before selling my body."
She said slowly, a hint of menace in her tone.
County Magistrate He's face darkened and he cursed her in his heart as a "bitch", but he didn't dare to say it out loud.
He could only respond with a forced smile: "Don't worry, young lady, I will take good care of you."
"Take care of me?" Fang Qingyue chuckled. "You think you're taking care of me by tying me to the car?"
"I said, since you want to benefit from me, you should be sincere."
Magistrate He barely suppressed his anger and asked, "What does that girl want?"
"Tea," Fang Qingyue said calmly, "I want tea, and I want you to make it yourself and bring it to me personally."
A cold light flashed in County Magistrate He's eyes. He could never have imagined that Fang Qingyue would be so arrogant.
But he knew that things were far from over. If he offended her now, not only would he not be able to gain any benefit from her, he might even end up being exposed.
He said with a forced smile, "Wait a moment, young lady. I will make tea for you myself."
After saying this, he turned away angrily and ordered his men to prepare tea. He gritted his teeth in his heart, but had to maintain a false respectful expression.
Soon, County Magistrate He personally came to the carriage with a pot of hot tea.
At this moment, he had forced himself to put on a kind smile.
He lifted the carriage curtain and offered the teapot with both hands, trying to maintain some decency: "Miss, the tea is here, please enjoy it slowly."
Fang Qingyue took the teacup and said calmly without even raising her eyelids, "You don't have to be so polite. This journey is long. If you really want me to feel better, you should be more careful."
Magistrate He had no choice but to smile and say, "Miss, do you have any other instructions?"
