Chapter 1788: 1788 Kidnapped Xiao Ye’er 1 Liu Yuqing stared in disbelief, only to see a longsword piercing through her chest. The one wielding the sword was actually Chang Haotian! “Did you think being pregnant would spare your life?” Chang Haotian’s voice was as cold as ice. “If you weren’t sent by Xiao Yuchuan, you wouldn’t have to die, and the child could be born. But since you were sent by him, even if the child were born, I would constantly ponder over how he was toying with me. I, Chang Haotian, have plenty of women to bear me children. You’re not needed. Dying by my hand is a blessing for you. Rest in peace.” He withdrew the sword, her eyes widened in disbelief as blood gushed continuously from her chest. In shock, she fell to the ground, life’s breath extinguished. Chang Feng was also surprised by his master’s actions. He thought the master liked the girl Liu Yuqing. However, knowing the master’s character, even if he liked her, he would never be entangled by a woman. As a subordinate, he dared not comment. He stepped forward to check her carotid artery. “Master, the girl Liu is dead.” The rıghtful source is 𝙣𝙤𝙫𝙚𝙡⁂𝔣𝔦𝔯𝔢⁂𝘯𝘦𝘵 “A thin coffin. Bury her.” Chang Haotian gave the cold order, then turned and left. Back at the Pear Blossom Villa, Chang Haotian stood in the yard, recalling how he used to see Liu Yuqing cleaning in the courtyard, her serene figure always in view. Nowadays, she was dead. He had actually killed her with his own hands! He didn’t deny that he liked her, but so what? If time could be turned back, he would do the same. No one could play him like a puppet! “Someone, go notify the Gongsun Family and tell them I agree to marry Gongsun Qianshuang.” “Find me some women who resemble Su Qingyue as soon as possible!” His mood was especially irritable. The news of the Pear Blossom Villa’s Villa Master and the Gongsun Family’s Miss Sixth, Gongsun Qianshuang’s upcoming marriage spread throughout the capital city. In the Xiao Mansion’s Study Room, Xiao Chonghuan stood in front of the window, his face full of frowns and displeasure. Shen Yun entered the room supported by a maid. A few days ago, she had served one month of her sentence in the government office prison. Although she was beaten and bruised, she had recovered somewhat during one month in prison and further healed upon returning to the mansion. Her injuries were almost healed. “Is the Master troubled?” She waved away the maids, walking to her husband’s side. “The Gongsun Family’s marriage alliance with the Pear Blossom Villa is not advantageous to us.” He was deep in thought. “If the Xiao Family does not merge with the Poison King Valley and Tianji Pavilion, a single power would be at a disadvantage.” “Master, I’ve been pondering for a month in jail, and I’ve realized, that woman Su Qingyue is not someone to be trifled with easily. We should use a gentle approach, win her heart first, then seize the opportunity to kill her and take over the Tianji Pavilion.” “Wife, your thoughts align with mine.” Xiao Chonghuan’s old brows were tightly knit. “Unfortunately, that woman Su Qingyue is highly skilled in medicine and is proficient in identifying poisons, making it not easy to kill her.” “Master, you forget, there’s still the little bastard.” Shen Yun’s eyes flashed with sinister intent. “No matter how skilled Su Qingyue is, the little bastard is just a child. If we capture him, won’t Su Qingyue obediently submit? By then, even if we tell her to drink poison herself, she would have no choice but to comply!” “Do you think I haven’t thought of that?” Xiao Chonghuan squinted his sharp eyes. “For more than a month now, I’ve had people observing secretly. Su Xuanye seldom leaves the mansion, and when he does, several experts accompany him. Capturing him is not that easy.”
