Chapter 163 See How Hard You Are
After hearing Feng Qing's words, A Yan raised his dagger and walked towards Shangguan Yao who was being held down by several people.
Shangguan Yao struggled hard, her face filled with panic and fear: "Aren't you afraid of killing people without regard for the law?"
"There's no such thing as law in Youqing Tower." Ah Yan walked up to Shangguan Yao. She glanced at the dagger in her hand that was still dripping with blood, then shifted her gaze to Shangguan Yao's face: "If you want to blame someone, blame yourself for knowing too much."
As soon as he finished speaking, A Yan grabbed Shangguan Yao's chin, raised the dagger and stabbed it towards Shangguan Yao's eyebrows.
In a flash, Shangguan Yao tilted her head hard and broke free from Ah Yan's hand that was strangling her chin. The dagger quickly slashed across her cheek, and the pain spread instantly. Her eyes turned cold, and she was about to fight back.
With a bang, the door was knocked open.
Everyone looked towards the gate.
Qin Junyi rushed in with his guards.
"Yao'er!" When Qin Junyi saw Shangguan Yao being held hostage with blood on her face, her pupils shrank and she walked towards Shangguan Yao.
Feng Qing and A Yan didn't expect Qin Junyi to appear, and both of them showed panic on their faces.
"What are you standing there for? Go and arrest the person who hurt the young lady!" Xie Rongying stepped through the gate, glanced around, and her eyes turned to Feng Qing who was standing by the screen wall: "Gu Xun, capture her alive."
As soon as he finished speaking, Yu Guangzhong's shadow went in the direction of Feng Qing.
Seeing this, A Yan rushed towards Feng Qing quickly, but was blocked by the guards and a fight started.
Fengqing looked in the direction of Shangguan Yao and Qin Junyi, her expression changed slightly, and she turned around and walked inside.
Xie Rongying's eyes were indifferent, and she walked slowly in the direction where Feng Qing had left.
At this time, the commotion in Youqing Tower alarmed many people, and people gathered at the gate one after another.
Qin Junyi held Shangguan Yao in his arms, looked at the scar on Shangguan Yao's left cheek, and said nervously: "Yao'er, does it hurt a lot? I'll take you to see a doctor. Are you injured anywhere else?"
Shangguan Yao leaned weakly in Qin Junyi's arms, tears streaming down her face: "Xueqing, Junyi, Xueqing was killed by them, and they also want to kill me, Junyi, don't let them go."
"I won't let them go, Yao'er, don't worry!" Qin Junyi said as he hugged Shangguan Yao tightly in his arms. He then glanced at the maids who had been captured by the guards and said, "Capture them all and bring them back to the Marquis' Mansion!"
A Yan was restrained by the guards and no matter how he struggled it was useless.
The backyard of Youqing Building.
Feng Qing's pace became faster and faster, and the panic in her eyes was very obvious. She dared to look back only after she had gone around a rockery.
Seeing that no one was following him, he walked towards the attic.
She walked up the stairs quickly, reached the attic, opened the door, and walked towards the inner room.
She walked around the screen and stopped in front of the bookshelf. Her eyes fell on the inkstone. She reached out and grasped it, just about to turn it.
Clang! The cold sword cut through the air and shot steadily into the bookshelf in front of Feng Qing.
Almost instantly, Feng Qing turned around and saw Gu Xun standing behind her. As her pupils shrank, her throat was strangled.
Feng Qing grabbed Gu Xun's arms with both hands, and just as she was about to struggle, Gu Xun grabbed her neck and dragged her out of the screen.
After crossing the screen, Feng Qing had not yet reacted when she felt her throat relax and she was thrown out. She fell to the ground after feeling dizzy. Just as she was about to look up, she saw a pair of lavender embroidered shoes and the hem of her skirt. She saw the feet in the embroidered shoes walking towards her. When she wanted to retract her outstretched hand, it was stepped on.
Feng Qing suddenly looked up and saw Xie Rongying staring at her with a smile.
"Miss Fengqing really lives up to her reputation. She is indeed quite pretty." Xie Rongying lowered her eyes to look at the woman who tilted her head back with a face covered in cold sweat, and said in a friendly tone: "But where are you thinking of running off to?"
"Who are you?" Feng Qing looked at the woman who was staring down at her, and had an indescribable feeling. Her smile was gentle, yet it was particularly creepy.
After seeing Qin Junyi appear, he did not notice the appearance of Xie Rongying.
Xie Rongying smiled faintly: "My identity should not be difficult to guess."
Feng Qing saw the teasing in Xie Rongying's eyes and blurted out, "You are, you are...Xie Jing's daughter?"
Xie Rongying chuckled softly, she squatted down, raised her chin coquettishly, and as she squatted down, she put more force on her feet.
Therefore, the pain on the back of Fengqing's hand made her face look a little grim.
"I thought you knew everything about my father the moment you set your sights on him, but I didn't expect you didn't even recognize me." Xie Rongying pursed her red lips and stared at Feng Qing. "But then again, if you were to honestly covet some of my father's money, it would be fine. After all, my father's only hobby is women."
"It's just that you're aiming to enter the Xie family." Xie Rongying raised her eyebrows and leaned slightly closer to Feng Qing. "I can't help but suspect that your ambition isn't to soar to the top and become a phoenix, but to take advantage of my father's guilt towards the Feng family to do something bad to my Xie family."
Feng Qing looked at Xie Rongying who was so close to her, and her body began to tremble slightly. Xie Rongying's words directly hit the tense string in her heart, which was slowly breaking at this moment.
She laughed coldly, "You also said that your father likes women. Without me, there will be another woman who wants to fly up to the tree and become a phoenix. You can take my life, but can you stop your father from looking for women?"
"What would I do with your dirty life?" Xie Rongying said as she shook Feng Qing's chin away and slowly stood up, but her feet did not leave Feng Qing's hand. She looked down at her and said, "As for my father looking for a woman, I really can't stop him."
Feng Qing raised her head and stared at Xie Rongying. She gritted her teeth and said, "You also said that your father likes women. Could it be that your father kills every woman he finds?"
"So, you still think that I came to see you just because my father likes you?" Xie Rongying smiled.
Feng Qing's pupils trembled. Why did Xie Rongying come to see her?
"You can make my father care about you step by step, and know how to use the Feng family to improve your status in my father's heart when necessary. You don't seem stupid." Xie Rongying said indifferently.
Seeing Fengqing's face getting paler and paler, Xie Rongying smiled and stepped harder.
Her pale face was full of pain.
"I came to you just to see who is behind you and stirring up trouble."
Feng Qing gritted her teeth and said, "It's Shangguan Yao, who else could it be?"
Xie Rongying kicked Fengqing in the face. Fengqing screamed in pain and fell to the ground on her side. The hand that had just been stepped on was relieved, and her right cheek was stepped on again.
When had she ever suffered such humiliation? She wanted to stand up and resist.
Gu Xun's long sword pierced through the back of her hand quickly, fiercely and accurately, and went straight through the floor.
"ah!"
Xie Rongying came forward, squatted down and looked at Feng Qing who was twisted in pain. She chuckled softly: "I hate people who are stubborn the most in my life, but I also want to see how stubborn you can be."
