Chapter 44 Forcing her own sister to kneel to save someone
He Qilin had never been threatened by anyone before. He didn't want to agree to release the person, but the jade seal was just too attractive.
After thinking for a few moments, he decided to release the people first.
If Qin Chengxuan dares to lie to him and release the people without handing over the jade seal, then he'll smash his spine and see if he still dares not to give it up.
"Release them." He waved to his men.
When Chen Xiaomei saw that He Qilin had really agreed to let her go, she didn't care about anything else. She jumped up and ran out of the dilapidated temple.
This girl is really clever. To say she's fearless in the face of danger is nonsense, but the fact that she was able to save herself without hesitation when she got the chance shows that she's not like most girls.
Qin Zhining, standing outside the back window, could see clearly and couldn't help but look at this young lady from the Chen family with new respect.
"Qin Chengxuan, I'm releasing the man—but hand over the stuff!" He Qilin had run out of patience. He picked up a wooden stick and approached the struggling Qin Chengxuan, speaking in a sinister tone.
Qin Zhiyu didn't want to let Chen Xiaomei go as a hostage, but since Young Master He had spoken, she didn't dare to object. She could only yell at her younger brother, "Ah Xuan, hurry up and tell me where you hid the things!"
Qin Chengxuan glanced at her and suddenly grinned with a cynical smile.
Although the smile, pulling at the cracked corners of his mouth, made his face look ferocious for a moment, it was too casual and nonchalant. "You want something? Qin Zhiyu—kneel down and beg me."
Just like when you bullied Qin Zhining and made her kneel down, if she knelt down and begged me, and spoke to me politely, I might be pleased and give the things to Young Master He.
"But if you don't agree, if you refuse to kneel and beg me, even if you beat me to death today, I won't give you anything. Anyway, if I'm not happy, you can forget about entering the He family."
"You? You—Qin Chengxuan, I'm your sister, your own sister." Qin Zhiyu's expression changed drastically, and she trembled with anger. "You want me to learn from that little bitch Qin Zhining? You—you're dreaming."
Qin Chengxuan, looking like he was ready to risk his life, spat out another mouthful of saliva and said casually, "Then go ahead and do it. Let's see if I'm tough on the talk or if you're tough on the walk."
"I'm dead, so you can forget about where that thing is. Hehehe—He Qilin, Qin Zhiyu, just wait and see if I, Qin Chengxuan, will soften from the pain."
Not only was Qin Zhiyu dumbfounded, but He Qilin was also taken aback by Qin Chengxuan's seemingly reckless and suicidal actions.
He never expected that Qin Chengxuan, who asked him to release Chen Xiaomei, would act so shamelessly that he was unafraid of death.
"Ayu, kneel down and beg him." With no other choice, He Qilin had to give up his fiancée, Qin Zhiyu.
Qin Zhiyu was already dizzy with anger at Qin Chengxuan, and when she suddenly heard He Qilin's words, she was stunned. "You—what did you say? I'll kneel, kneel to him, and beg him?"
He Qilin turned her head, her face full of pain and sorrow, looking at Qin Zhiyu with a reluctant and heartbroken expression, and deliberately lowered her voice, saying, "Ayu, I'm begging you."
"I—really, for our future success, for you—and for our future children, I—I can only compromise myself and—be with you."
These few words moved Qin Zhiyu deeply. Tears streamed down her face as she nodded vigorously, lifted her clothes, and knelt down before Qin Chengxuan.
Qin Chengxuan made this request to buy time for Chen Xiaomei to escape, but he never expected that his own sister would actually kneel before him for He Qilin's sake. He was stunned for a moment, forgetting to struggle and forgetting what he wanted to say...
Upon seeing this, Qin Zhining realized that although Qin Chengxuan's foolish move had saved Chen Xiaomei, he might end up getting himself into trouble. It seemed she would have to step up and take charge.
Just then, Qin Chengxuan suddenly pointed his chin towards the underside of the offering table in the dilapidated temple and said to He Qilin, "The thing is under the offering table, go and get it."
Seeing this, Qin Zhiyu was so angry that she slapped Qin Chengxuan twice. "You bastard, I'm your sister, how dare you make me kneel down?"
"Huh? The thing was in this temple. Why didn't you take it out earlier? Qin Chengxuan, let me tell you, when we get home, I'll definitely have Mother punish you severely."
At this point, Qin Chengxuan decided to go all out and grinned at Qin Zhiyu indifferently, "Sister, you're my sister, I know."
But for your own sake, for your own wealth and status, you used me as a stepping stone, making that little fool Qin Zhining your stepping stone. Not only did you lose all of Auntie's dowry, but you also almost died in the countryside.
Sister, isn't Qin Zhining your sister? She and I are both Father's blood. You and Mother—for the sake of the dowry and this marriage with the He family—not only harmed her, but also spread rumors that I had taken a liking to the He family's mentally challenged third daughter.
Hahaha... Hahaha, ordinary people are so poor they're going crazy, they're trading their daughters for their sons in marriage, but what about you?
"They actually used me, the eldest son of the Qin family, to exchange for a marriage with that brat of a girl? Tell me, why can't I vent this anger—I've been holding back for so long?"
"You—how did you know?" Who told you? "In her haste, Qin Zhiyu blurted it out and forgot to think before she spoke."
Meanwhile, the box containing the jade seal that Qin Chengxuan mentioned under the altar was found.
Young Master He snatched the box from the servant's hand and opened it with an arrogant and unfriendly manner...
Inside the box lay a palm-sized jade seal, its texture warm and smooth, with the character "Qin" engraved on it. It seemed to be a relic left by Qin Zhining's mother, Xie Mingyuan.
Seeing that he had finally obtained his treasure, Young Master He was extremely pleased with himself. He smiled so much that his eyes were almost closed, and he said in a very serious manner.
"Qin Chengxuan, you're smart to know what's good for you. But—" He changed the subject, winking at the thug, "you—you're worse than an animal, actually forcing your sister to kneel before you just to control me."
Furthermore, you forced me to wrong your sister for the sake of this precious jade seal, causing me unbearable heartache. Therefore, your legs still need to be broken, otherwise you won't learn your lesson.
This kid can talk a dead man back to life with his mouth. Anyway, the main point is that Qin Chengxuan went against his wishes and made him unhappy, so he deserved to have his legs broken.
The thug stared at his master's order, waiting for him to speak before raising his wooden stick and delivering a brutal blow to Qin Chengxuan, breaking both his legs on the spot.
He swung the wooden stick down fiercely.
"Stop!" Seeing that Chen Xiaomei had been taken away by her brother, Qin Zhining kicked open the back window and jumped into the dilapidated temple. At the same time, the short knife in her hand flashed coldly and went straight for the thug who was holding a stick.
The thugs were so startled by the sudden intrusion that their hands trembled, and the wooden stick clattered to the ground.
Young Master He and Qin Zhiyu were also stunned and turned to look at the door.
