Jiang Yu moved her eyes and tilted her head to look at the spineless and sleazy man in front of her.
He was still waiting for his answer, his appearance devout and humble, which made Jiang Yu sneer inwardly.
He's just a despicable creature with wild fantasies, yet he dares to dream of rising to the top.
That girl Changhe is willing to deal with any kind of person for the sake of the third son's plan. She is just like her incompetent father, living by reading other people's faces and having no backbone.
He gave a lazy "hmm" and said, "Then I'll wait for your good news."
"Young Master Meng, please don't disappoint me again."
After saying this, he glanced at Meng Zhixuan, who was still kneeling on the ground, and without hesitation, he went back into the darkness.
Before leaving, I glanced one last time in the direction of Tingfeng Pavilion.
If she knew that her husband wanted to kill her whole family for another woman, I wonder how she would feel.
The thought had barely formed when he immediately dismissed it.
He was just an observer; he had little interest in knowing the emotions and thoughts of those involved.
——
When the carriage passed through the bustling city, Wei Wei asked Xiao Yue'er to get off and buy some pastries and snacks.
After taking the dowry, she had the groom drive the horse towards Aunt Leng's house.
The carriage was left nearby, and Xiaoyue raised her hand to knock on the door.
However, the two seemed to be out of the house, and no one answered for a long time.
What a coincidence.
Wei Wei couldn't help but feel somewhat disappointed.
It won't be so easy to come back next time.
Just as I was about to turn and leave, I heard footsteps behind me.
They initially thought it was Aunt Leng and her companion returning, but upon turning around, they saw that it was none other than Qin Shi, the young master of the Qin family, whom they hadn't seen for several days.
Several servants followed behind him, some of them carrying sticks at their waists.
Their faces were fierce and menacing, giving off an impression that they were not to be trifled with.
They're trying to cause trouble again?!
Wei Wei's gaze turned cold. Was he courting death?
If I hadn't encountered this today, I don't know what the consequences would have been!
She stood there with a cold face, staring at Qin Shi, who had already spotted her.
"It's you? What a small world!" Qin Shi injured his shoulder and has probably been recuperating at home for the past few days.
I ran into my enemy again as soon as I went out today, and my originally pale face turned rosy.
He was clearly very excited.
Wei Wei stared at him with a slightly gloomy gaze. When he spoke, she didn't answer, but instead clicked her tongue in disdain.
The petite woman looked impatient, which Qin Shi felt was a great insult.
"Quickly, tie these two up!"
He called out loudly to the people behind him, then chuckled smugly, "You fell for my trick last time, this time I'm going to teach you a lesson!"
Seeing the servants surround the two of them, Xiao Yue'er, who was standing in front of Wei Wei, almost cried.
This thug is absolutely infuriating!
"Miss, I'll hold them off, you run!" she said fearlessly. "It's not far from the main street, you'll be safe once you get out!"
Wei Wei grasped her trembling hand and pulled her back behind her.
"Young Master Qin, one should be forgiving when possible. Your family are all educated people; how can you not understand this principle?"
Qin Shi laughed smugly, "Now you're not so arrogant anymore? I thought the young mistress of the Meng family was quite capable."
His malicious eyes fell on her face again: "If you admit your mistake now and call me husband, I might let you off the hook."
Wei Wei's eyes didn't change, but the upturned corners of her mouth slowly disappeared.
This spendthrift son who's always courting disaster is a real headache.
She suppressed her anger and advised him, "Young Master Qin, please be careful with your words. This is not the alley we were in last time. There are people watching and listening around here."
Qin Shi glanced around and indeed saw the gazes of those hiding nearby.
He curled his lip in utter disdain: "Do these people dare to come out and court death?"
Faced with this unreasonable rogue, Wei Wei paused for a moment, then suddenly realized that fighting fire with fire was the most effective solution.
Thinking this, she had no choice but to pull a silver hairpin from her hair and hold it to her throat, her voice calm: "It's laughable that the eldest daughter-in-law of the Meng family was harassed by Young Master Qin. But it would be unseemly if the eldest daughter-in-law of the Meng family was driven to suicide by Young Master Qin."
"Young Master Qin, with the Meng family's influence in Loucheng, do you think your maternal uncle can get you out of trouble?"
"Does your Qin family still want to have a foothold in Loucheng in the future?"
Qin Shi's voice trailed off as if someone had suddenly grabbed his neck.
His eyes widened, anger surging to his head, and he was panting heavily: "I don't believe you could really do that!"
Wei Wei smiled faintly, sighed as if provoking him, and with a flick of her wrist, plunged the needle into his skin without stopping, causing a drop of bright red blood to well up.
"Young Master Qin, do you really want to continue?"
She asked earnestly, and then inserted the needle further into her skin.
Seeing the bright red blood flowing out, Qin Shi's eyelids began to twitch wildly.
He wasn't afraid that the young mistress of the Meng family would commit suicide; the situation at the time was just too damn bizarre, wasn't it?
Is this really the pampered young lady he investigated who has never suffered any hardship?
Looking at the person who seemed completely unaffected by pain, and who was even staring at him with a smirk, he! Didn't! Believe!
"You surnamed Wei, you have absolutely no sense of martial ethics!"
After he finished yelling through gritted teeth, the hair on the back of his head finally softened a little.
To show he wasn't afraid, he added menacingly, "Get out of here right now!"
Wei Wei raised an eyebrow at his exasperated state, her voice still unhurried: "Young Master Qin, it's you who should get lost."
"I don't think anyone here welcomes you."
Qin Shi was bewildered in the wind; he had finally met his match in all his life!
"Fine, fine, you're something else, Wei. I won't mess with you, but what about Meng?"
"The business world is like a battlefield; the Meng family should be careful from now on."
After saying that, he angrily flung his sleeves and walked back!
Once everyone was far away, Xiaoyue cried out and threw herself into Wei Wei's arms, asking, "Miss, are you alright?"
"Waaaah...it's bleeding!!"
Wei Wei relaxed her tense mood and grinned slightly: "Good Yue'er, don't cry. This move is called 'drawing the firewood from under the cauldron.' From now on, that spendthrift Qin family will be trembling and running as far away as possible whenever he sees me!"
She comforted me with a smile, saying, "These minor injuries may hurt a little, but they're really nothing serious."
Little Yue'er continued to sob, wishing she were the one who had been hurt.
This trip was a complete waste!
"Miss, let's hurry back and apply the medicine."
With tears in her eyes, she pleaded, "What if it leaves a scar?"
Before Wei Wei could answer, Aunt Leng rushed over from around the corner in a panic.
"Benefactor! Benefactor!" Her dark face turned slightly pale. "The Qin family has come again?"
