Chapter 35: A Bolt from the Blue

Translator: Sissy That Walk

Mu Chaoyang was transfixed, what Su Liancheng said was like a bolt from the blue.

A servant broke in, he stammered, “Master,bad news, master. All of our own secret agents have lost contact with us, and the secret agents we have sent out have become turncoats… …”

No! He had been working so hard to cultivate his own secret agents, how did this happen overnight!

Mu Chaoyang didn’t understand why his plan went on so smoothly until now, it turned out Murong Yun had tricked him.

Murong Yun pretended he had no idea about how Mu Chaoyang was working on instigating rebellion within the agents, actually Murong Yun had been giving Mu Chaoyang the same dose of his own medicine.

His two years hard work, all gone!

Mu Chaoyang’s eyes turned scarlet red and he clenched his fists tightly, how he wished he could kill Murong Yun with his own hands, but he knew it very well this day was not the day.

“Murong Yun, just wait for it!” Mu Chaoyang gnashed his teeth and left the restaurant in a hurry.

The busboy quickly closed the door as soon as Mu Chaoyang and his servants stepped out of the doorsill.

Luo Qianqian thought through the whole thing from what she had just heard, Mu Chaoyang came to show off how he had destroyed Murong Yun’s secret agents base, but little did he expect Murong Yun outsmarted and outplayed him, it was his own secret agents base was destroyed, that was an epic lose for Mu Chaoyang.

Luo Qianqian was intimidated by Murong Yun’s scheming ability.

She stared at Murong Yun who was peeling a mandarin for him and lost in thought.

‘Why is this man so nice and friendly to me?’

She never intended to play mind game with anyone, she just didn’t want to be involved in anyone’s scheming without knowing, in other words, she didn’t want to be used.

“Aren’t you worried he will pay back?” Luo Qianqian asked.

Murong Yun shook his head, “No, he is not that competent.”

What Murong Yun said was true.

Mu Chaoyang, even though he was the Crown Prince in Tianqi Country, but he was eclipsed by Murong Yun since they were kids.

Luo Qianqian nodded and she didn’t ask any more questions about Mu Chaoyang.

She kept telling herself mind her own business, that was the only way to lead a happy life.

Luo Qianqian went back to Luo Pavilion at about 9 p.m.

It had already past Xiao Yue’s bedtime, but her room was still bright.

Luo Qianqian walked into Xiao Yue’s room, only to see Xiao Yue was dozing off on the table, waiting for her to come back, kind of cute.

Luo Qianqian felt warm knowing Xiao Yue had been waiting for her to come back home safely.

“Xiao Yue, Xiao Yue, I’m home, wake up.”

“Aiya, you are back, my lady.” Xiao Yue rubbed her eyes and exclaimed in excitement.

“Why didn’t you go to bed?” asked Luo Qianqian with concern.

“I want to see you and say goodnight to you before I go to bed.”

Luo Qianqian’s heart was melting, Xiao Yue probably was the only one in this world who cared for her so much.

Seeing how sleepy Xiao Yue was, Luo Qianqian smiled, “Now I’m back home safe and sound, you can go to bed now, good night, Xiao Yue.”

“Yes, my lady. I’ll be just at my room, please call me if you need anything.”

“Thank you, Xiao Yue.”

Luo Qianqian tosses and turned on her bed after Xiao Yue left, she couldn’t fall asleep.

Thinking about Murong Yun’s Frigid Poison, she went to see Xiao Bai in the space.

She went to chit chat with Xiao Bai and did some window shopping in Xiao Bai’s shop, she had a long day that day, so she fell asleep before she got a chance to inquire Xiao Bai about Murong Yun’s Frigid Poison.

In the other side of Prime Minister’s Mansion.

Luo Keer finally felt better after days’ resting in bed.

She heard so much about Luo Qianqian’s betrothal gifts and she was furious.

She couldn’t help but blame her father, how could he allow Luo Qianqian to take all those rare treasures in her Treasury, how could she have her share if Luo Qianqian kept them all in Luo Pavilion?

She made up her mind that she would fight for her share, and somehow she thought Luo Qianqian had everything to do with her sudden contract of the strange disease.

‘Luo Qianqian, I will pay you back for what I went through, ten times more!’

Xiao Cui was reporting to Luo Keer about what happened to Luo Yuyan.

“Really?” Luo Keer asked with great interest, the news had totally made her day.

“Yes, my lady, I swear.” Xiao Cui said firmly.

Luo Keer who was having breakfast now put down her chopsticks and laughed, “Haha, that served her just fine!”

She knew how Luo Yuyan and her mother had been laughing at her for her sudden contract of the strange disease, now she felt so delighted knowing that Luo Yuyan had almost lost her virginity.

Even though Luo Yuyan was fine in the end, but thinking about how terrified she must be at the moment, Luo Keer couldn’t help but laugh.

Luo Keer got more and more excited as Xiao Cui told her in details, “Great, this is so great, I’m not having a good time, and God have mercy, you are all suffering too.”

“Keer, what are you laughing about? I can hear your laughter in my room.” the Second Concubine asked while she walked in Luo Keer’s room.

The Second Concubine had been sulking since her daughter had contracted a strange disease days ago, now she heard her daughter’s laughter, she was curious to find out why.

Seeing her mother waking in, Luo Keer stood up and threw herself into her mother’s arms, “Mom, Xiao Cui just told me what happened while I was unconscious, who could imagine Prince Eighth would favor Luo Qianqian this much, just to think so many rare treasures all in that bitch’s Treasury!”

“But I heard some good news from Xiao Cui,” continued Luo Keer, “All those rare treasures were almost stolen away, and Luo Yuyan was hurt by some assassins, she almost lost her virginity! Daddy ordered to beat Luo Qianqian to death, but somehow that never really happened, what a shame. I cannot believe so many things had happened within just days.”

The Second Concubine patted Luo Keer on her back, “My daughter, shh, let’s stay low key.”

Luo Keer nodded her head, but soon she cursed, “What a shame that bitxx Luo Qianqian wasn’t beaten to death!”

The Second Concubine put on a meaningful smile, “Not yet, she wasn’t beaten to death yet, it’s just a matter of time I believe.”

The Second Concubine told herself that Luo Qianqian had got to go when she sat at Luo Keer’s bedside, seeing the pains her daughter had to go through.

She was confident she could get rid of that little girl, why, because no one in this mansion cared about Luo Qianqian.

The Second Concubine always sought revenge for the smallest grievance, no way she would tolerate Luo Qianqian after her daughter contracted that disease.

“Mom, you have a plan?” asked Luo Keer cheerfully.

“Getting rid of a little bitxx like Luo Qianqian is not that hard,” said the Second Concubine with her head held up high, she signaled Luo Keer to come closer, “Listen to me, my good daughter… …”
