Chapter 739: I Refuse to Be a Saint
"Don't listen to their nonsense. It's true I forced myself on you before, but you should know my feelings for you. Just wait calmly for me to marry you into the family; don't overthink things."
Hearing these words left Liu Chuxue speechless. What kind of logic was this?
While they were speaking, Liu Chuxue released her spiritual sense, wanting to see if what that man said was true or false.
Unfortunately, this man probably wanted to fool a young girl; inside the room there was only a small box containing three thousand yuan, some gold, silver, and jade jewelry, and then several stacks of various tickets.
She had just been wondering what was missing; it turned out the tickets were missing.
She really hadn't found any tickets at this man's house before; it turned out he had brought them all here to curry favor with his little mistress.
Just as she was lost in thought, the man pushed the door open and walked out of the courtyard: "Come back tomorrow night."
Reaching the main gate, he first stuck his head out, looking furtively left and right; only after confirming it was safe did he step out, whispering to the person inside: "I'm leaving. You should hurry back and catch up on some sleep. Be careful during the day; don't let anyone spot a flaw."
As he opened the main gate, Liu Chuxue hid inside the space.
Only after he had been gone for quite a while did Liu Chuxue emerge from the space.
She glanced into the courtyard, thinking: Should I take away that box of things?
Just as she was distracted thinking, she heard the sound of climbing a wall. She quickly looked toward where the sound came from and saw a man climb over the courtyard wall next door: "Meiyun, is the person gone?"
"Mm."
"You heard what he said. What should we do now?"
Liu Chuxue was startled. She had truly been careless; she really hadn't checked the situation in the neighboring courtyard. A wave of fear washed over her.
The man said, "Who could have thought the matter wouldn't succeed? That country girl actually escaped."
Heh. Just now, she had momentarily felt soft-hearted, thinking that since this Miss was forced, perhaps she shouldn't take those things. Later, when that man got into trouble, he presumably wouldn't mention the small box of things sent here; she could just consider those things as compensation from that man to her.
But she never expected there to be more to this, and it was obvious that the country girl they were talking about was herself. How could this be allowed? Regardless of their motives, it was far too unpleasant.
"That pervert clearly has his sights set on me. What if what he said is true? What do we do now?"
"Don't be afraid. I'm here. If it really comes to it, I'll expose all the despicable things he's done over the years. By then, he won't have a good outcome."
"No, no, no. If something really happens, his in-laws will definitely send people to investigate. If they find out, you'll be cut to pieces by them. I can't let you take that risk."
"Don't worry. That is the last resort, the worst possible option."
"Yao Qidong is truly useless; he couldn't even accomplish such a small matter."
"Should we find someone else for him and try to get a person delivered to his doorstep?"
"I've been looking for someone to handle this, but where can we find someone suitable? She must be beautiful, well-educated, and most importantly, have no family backing. If something really happens, no one will come after us for revenge."
"Didn't you say before that woman had an urban fiancé? Why did Yao Qidong still dare to make a move? Wasn't he afraid that family would seek revenge?"
"Those families on the surface care most about face. If the matter truly succeeded, they would probably be eager to discard a ruined flower like her. How could they possibly stand up for her?"
Liu Chuxue grew angrier the more she listened. Go to hell. She wouldn't leave anything for them, and she would wipe out the neighboring courtyard too.
She had originally planned to send that man away in the next few days. It seemed she should delay it by a few days. People who harm others just for their own sake are not worth sympathy. She did not want to be a saint.
