Chapter 6

~3 min read 574 words

Mary wanted to say something else, but seeing the bloodshot eyes of Han Chen, her heart suddenly skipped a beat.

A foreboding feeling welled up in her heart.

"Did you kill Uncle Kun?"

Han Chen stared straight at Mary with red eyes.

Hearing this, Mary froze on the spot.

Even with Mary's cunning, she couldn't remain calm at this moment.

"Why did you kill Uncle Kun! You knew Uncle Kun saved my life! Why did you frame me for such unrighteousness!"

Han Chen roared, pushing Mary into the corner of the wall.

"You've worked under Uncle Kun for so many years, I just wanted you to rise..."

Mary explained.

"Rise? I think you've been muddled by messing around with Lu Qichang!"

Han Chen's words made Mary freeze again.

She thought that no one would ever know about her affair with Lu Qichang, but she never expected to hear it from Han Chen's mouth.

In an instant, Mary's face turned pale, devoid of any color.

Mary understood that Han Chen already knew everything, and any explanation was useless.

The next moment, Mary's neck tightened as Han Chen's hands clamped down hard.

"After you go down, apologize to Uncle Kun for me."

Han Chen gritted his teeth, squeezing these words out from between his teeth.

Then he gradually applied force.

Mary's struggle grew weaker and weaker.

A few minutes later.

She stopped moving altogether.

"Gold coin +5!"

The moment Mary died, a system prompt appeared in Ni Yongyao's mind.

Until her death, Mary never imagined that killing Ni Kun would not only fail to help Han Chen rise, but would instead cause her own death.

And she died at the hands of Han Chen.

Han Chen looked at Mary's hollow eyes, a painful expression appearing on his face, but it was forcibly suppressed by him.

Han Chen was a person who valued loyalty and righteousness.

If Mary had only killed Ni Kun, then no matter what, Han Chen could never have killed Mary with his own hands.

But Mary had also messed around with Lu Qichang, which was an unforgivable betrayal to Han Chen.

"Mr. Ni, this is my loyalty to the Ni family."

Han Chen took a deep breath and looked at Ni Yongyao.

Ni Yongyao witnessed the process of Han Chen strangling Mary, but from beginning to end, he didn't even frown.

It was as if the matter before him was nothing more than ordinary.

"Nice ring."

Ni Yongyao's gaze fell on Han Chen's wedding ring, a playful smile appearing.

Han Chen was just about to take off the ring when he heard a *clang*, and a dagger fell in front of him.

"Use it to take the ring off."

Ni Yongyao ordered calmly.

Han Chen froze, then understood Ni Yongyao's meaning.

Strangling Mary wasn't enough.

Han Chen was silent for a few seconds, then picked up the dagger and cut down hard on his ring finger.

*Puff! *

The finger was severed at the root.

Han Chen didn't care about the excruciating pain or the bleeding; he tremblingly held up the severed finger and knelt on one knee before Ni Yongyao.

"Mr. Ni, please accept my loyalty."

Han Chen lowered his head and said respectfully.

Seeing this scene, Ni Yongyao finally showed a look of satisfaction.
