Chapter 25: Resentment
Lan Shang looked at herself with a deep smile.
Snowball trembled slightly in Qi Niang's arms, Qi Niang looked down and saw that Snowball's hair stood upside down because of fear, as if she had seen something terrible. Suspiciously, she placed the snowball on the ground, and the snowball ran away.
Lan Sheng looked at the direction in which the snowball had fled, showed a smile at Qi Niang, and stepped aside, "Seventh sister, come in." ”
Qi Niang entered the room and locked the door, Lan Sheng watched her movements, her face was a little confused, and then she smiled again, "What's wrong with my sister?" Is there something important? ”
"You killed the cat outside the yard?" Qi Niang got straight to the point.
A trace of panic quickly flashed in Lan Shang's eyes, and then she pretended to be calm and said, "What is my sister saying, why can't I understand it at all?" ”
"Don't understand?" Qi Niang glanced at her coldly, "I saw you give a handyman some money yesterday, what is that money used for?" Don't you think it's ridiculous to do what you're doing? ”
Qi Niang's expression now is exactly the same as Bian Che's question when he first talked to him, which made Lan Sheng suddenly angry, she changed her obedient face and said, "Does my sister think I'm ridiculous?" Sister, don't you think it's ridiculous to kill countless people, why can't I kill a cat, it's just a dirty stray cat, does my sister think cats are more valuable than human life? My sister swore to take care of me before, but since I came here, my sister has ignored me and hasn't come to see me for a long time, and I am not as good as a cat in my sister's eyes. Now he's scolding me for a stray cat. Have you forgotten your promise to my sister? ”
"It's because I promised your sister to take good care of you that I can't let you go from a kind girl to a person who doesn't even let animals go like this!"
Lan Sheng suddenly laughed, her expression was sarcastic that Qi Niang had never seen before, "Kindness? If Seventh Sister really wanted me to be the same as before, she shouldn't have brought me to the Jin Family Courtyard! Long after the landlord killed the two men who were fighting for me in order to punish me for my mistakes, I didn't know what kindness was. He can easily control people's life and death, and by his side, what I learned was not kindness, but how to make one's heart ruthless. My sister caused me to become like this. ”
Lan Shang watched Qi Niang's face gradually become more and more ugly, but she felt very happy in her heart, and continued: "Seventh Sister is really too much, she keeps saying that she thinks about me, but in fact, she doesn't treat me as a sister at all, otherwise why would you stop me from being with the landlord?" I hate my sister's appearance of being unintentional to the landlord but letting the landlord distract you, I hate my sister's expression when she looks at me now, and I hate the disgusted look of the landlord when she knows that I have done something to the white cat. I'm just trying to get all the attention of a man, so what's wrong with me? ”
Qi Niang's eyes widened in disbelief, and she almost trembled: "What did you say? Snowball like that, did you do it? ”
Lan Shang looked up and showed a harmless smile, and her voice was light and beautiful, "Yes, that cat is very fierce, and when it sees my canary, I want to scratch it, it is a gift bought by the golden master, how can I let it go!" So I lured it with its favorite food, what it likes to eat, or sister, you told me! When the kitten was full, I took it to the bath, and I heard my sister say that Snowball hates bathing the most. Sure enough, it tossed so hard that it wet the skirt that the landlord bought for me, so I pressed it into the bucket to make it settle down, but who knew that it actually scratched my clothes, and my heart was so bad. In order to punish it for disobedience, I covered it with a pillow, and for fear that it would not be able to breathe, I exposed its head and pressed its body with my hands...... Hehe, it's as soft as having no bones......"
Lan Sheng wanted to continue, but there was a crisp sound of "pop" in the room, and she only felt that her face was hot and painful, and Qi Niang's palm was still held in the air, trembling slightly because of anger.
Qi Niang glared angrily at Lan Sheng who was weak in front of her, her eyes were full of shock and disbelief, as well as deep incomprehension.
One side of Lan Shang's face immediately swollen, the slap mark on the translucent skin was very obvious, and her tears fell like beads with broken threads, glaring at Qi Niang resentfully. "I'm really not as good as a cat in your eyes."
"This is for your sister Lan Yi, if she sees you like this, it won't be as simple as a slap." Qi Niang's heart sank to the bottom, she turned around and left the room, feeling so uncomfortable that she couldn't breathe.
Since when did Lan Shang start hating himself? From Lan Shang's clear eyes, she could no longer see the dependence and meekness she had before, but a deep resentment towards herself.
"You brought her into this Longtan tiger's den." Bian Che's words rang in her ears that day.
Perhaps from the day Lan Shang's parents died because of him, Lan Sheng no longer trusted himself. It was himself, who was self-righteous and protected them, but he pushed them into danger step by step, and it was he who pushed Lan Sheng to Bian Che's side and made her what she is now. He was the initiator of the murder of Lan Shang's parents. The bloody pictures of countless people falling in front of her swept over, making Qi Niang's eyes dark, stretched out her hand, and saw that her hands were covered with blood, and she said to herself self-deprecatingly: "I am a murderer, what qualifications do I have to blame her." Qi Niang sat on the ground, buried her head deep in her knees, and let her hands be on the outside.
"Don't you want your hands?" A deep voice sounded, and Qi Niang was held by the wrist and stood up.
Qi Niang found out that she was holding the dark dart that Xi Feng handed over to her on the day Lan Shang's parents were killed, because it was too hard, the dark dart had been embedded in the flesh, and the dark blood flowed to her wrist, and she didn't even notice it.
Bian Che took a dark dart from Qi Niang's hand, and immediately changed his face after seeing the three purple plum blossoms engraved on the dart, staring at Qi Niang tightly and saying, "Where did this dark dart come from?" ”
Looking at Bian Che's expression, Qi Niang suddenly felt that this matter was not trivial, so she said solemnly: "This is what Lan Xiang's parents found on them when they were killed, but the landlord knows this dart?" ”
"This is the dart of the Tianxuan Sect, have you been in contact with them?"
Qi Niang searched in her mind, Yeluya's face quickly flashed in front of her eyes, and a terrible idea emerged, but she instantly vetoed it, anyone could hurt Lanshang's family, but Yeluya couldn't and didn't have a reason to do it. She shook her head and said, "No." ”
Bian Che glanced at her meaninglessly and said, "Gao Li, who you saw in Rongxi Manor last time, is the sect leader of the Tianxuan Sect. Yeluxin was originally his stepfather, but for some reason, a man named Yeluya replaced Gao Li as Yeluxin's righteous son and guard. Bian Che said these words, and his inquiring eyes never took his eyes off Qi Niang.
Although Qi Niang already knew something about Gao Ya and Yelu Ya from Xiao Sixteen, she was still slightly surprised when she heard that Gao Li was actually the leader of the Tianxuan Sect. In this way, Yeluya is indeed related to Tianxuan Sect, who is Yeluya from Gao Ya? This question gradually surfaced and deepened in her mind, and Qi Niang couldn't wait to ask Yeluya in person.
"This dart is not poisonous, otherwise your hands will be wasted. Are your hands not perceptual? Bian Che's dark eyes stared at Qi Niang's palm, and her inky pupils were bottomless. His tone seemed to be a little angry.
The seemingly unintentional words made Qi Niang's heart shrink suddenly, she looked to the side and did not speak.
No one knew that her hand had completely lost its sensation as early as a winter more than ten years ago. It took her a long, long time to make her hands move like a normal person, even more flexible than a normal person, everyone thought she was fine, only she knew that these hands would never feel any warmth and pain again.
For a killer, the result is even better.
"Let's stop the bleeding." Bian Che looked at the blood that kept flowing out of Qi Niang's hands and the place where he was burned before, and suddenly felt very dazzling, and couldn't help urging.
After Qi Niang left, Yu Mingchen walked out from behind the shade, and Bian Che handed him the dark dart and said, "During this time, keep an eye on Qi Niang for me." ”
Yu Mingchen looked at the purple plum on the dark dart and asked, "Does the landlord suspect that Qi Niang has something to do with Tianxuan Sect?" ”
"No, I didn't doubt her, I suspected the people around her. Tell Sixteen to check on Rongxi Manor. By the way, don't mention what I told you to do, including your brother. Bian Che's face flickered in the dim night light.
Yu Mingchen looked at Bian Che with some surprise, and after a while, he lowered his head, as if thinking about something, and then arched his hand and said, "My subordinates know." Rest assured, landlord. ”
Bian Che nodded, "In two days, I will let Ye Jiu go to Windy City, and I will wronged you for a while." ”
Yu Mingchen smiled, "The subordinates don't feel any grievances, but they are just idle for a while, and the subordinates are happy." Besides, the climate in the capital is much better than that of the Windy City. ”
Bian Che snorted coldly: "Comfortable? Don't forget the 'Night Narcos',......"
Bian Che spoke an obscure language, and Yu Mingchen bowed his head and replied to the same language, as if discussing some secret matter.
After a while, Yu Mingchen changed back to his original language and said: "Landlord, I heard that you recently got a new favor and sent a congratulatory gift, do you want to take a look?" ”
"New favorite? Although it is far away, the news spreads quickly. Bian Che couldn't help frowning, "But who told him that it was his new favorite?" ”
"Now the entire Jin family knows that the landlord has recently raised a well-behaved and docile canary, and the Jin family can't help but come and ask, saying when will you take it to her old man's house to see it."
Bian Che's eyes sank slightly, "Didn't you say not to get too involved in my affairs?" Qianjilou and the Chamber of Commerce are just interests. ”
Yu Mingchen couldn't help but smile and said: "Having said that, the big boss has no children under his knees, so he can only pin his trust on the landlord." The landlord may wish to take the girl to the golden house to dispel the idea of being in charge, so that she will always worry. ”
"......" Bian Che pondered for a while, and seemed to have compromised.
"Didn't you say there was a congratulatory gift? Take me to see it. ”
Yu Mingchen asked someone to carry a large box to Bian Che's room, and when he opened it, it turned out to be the long-lost Hua Wu Sword, the fourth sword after the Canghai Sword. Legend has it that this sword has disappeared for more than ten years with the death of its previous owner, but I didn't expect it to appear again.
Bian Che took out the Hua Wu Sword from the box and pulled it out of its scabbard, and the dim room was suddenly illuminated by the jade light shining from the sword body.
Bian Che retracted it into its scabbard, and the room immediately went dark again.
"It was a great gift to know that I had never used a sword, so I sent a sword for a woman. However, I accepted the gift. ”
