Chapter 420 - She Is Fine, Right?! (1/2)

The shadow guard finally came in and the mistress knew that she had missed the chance to kill that maidservant. She really needed to think of a way out at this moment! The more distressed she was, the happier Yao Ling was. When people weren't in their calmest minds, they tended to make a mistake and she couldn't wait for that to happen.

The mistress felt like Yao Ling was mocking her with her gaze and smile. 'Does she know something?' She thought to herself. It made her feel nervous, after all, she didn't want Wang Luo Hai to hate her. However, she shook the thoughts away --- what kind of things a village girl would understand?!

The mistress mocked Yao Ling back with her gaze...

Yao Ling saw her mocking gaze and it infuriated her, thus, she smirked at the mistress. She was feeling like taunting her which made the mistress' heart beat faster. Did she really know something?! The more Yao Ling behaved this way, the more nervous she was.

The mistress really wanted to stab Yao Ling with her needle as well, but she knew that this wasn't the right time yet. Even if Yao Ling perished right at this moment and she felt happy, she would be killed as the evildoer as well so she wouldn't get any benefits at all!

She gritted her teeth in fear... No! She should stop thinking about killing Yao Ling!

Yao Ying found the mistress' expression truly comical, he wondered how Yao Ling was able to hold back her laughter ah~?! It was like they were watching a slapstick comedy. He shook his head inwardly but he paid close attention to them --- just in case, the mistress tried to do something funny to Yao Ying.

Sometimes, desperate people could do crazy action. It was better if he got ready before something happened.

Once the shadow guard came in, the mistress had no choice but to think of a new plan. The more nervous she was, the more her head became blank --- she couldn't find a sound plan at all, until her eyes landed on Yao Ling and her eyes sparkled with happiness.

Didn't everyone always like her? If something happened to her... they would be in a panic, right?!

When her gaze landed at Yao Ling, the mistress smirked to herself, then, she pretended to fall down. She deliberately fell onto Yao Ling and pushed her down. She wanted to make a commotion, so people would look at Yao Ling --- instead of her. She didn't think that the plan would be effective because she didn't know about Yao Ling's pregnancy and this was merely a gamble for her.

What would she lose if she tried this plan? Nothing!

”Argh!” Yao Ling said loudly when she felt that she was being pushed. She didn't think that the mistress was bold enough to do this to her! She quickly covered up her stomach with both of her hands, trying to protect it from the impact.

People quickly looked at her and jumped up in surprise when they saw that Yao Ling was going to fall down. Wang Luo Hai and the matriarch quickly stood up and tried to save her as well but they were too far away from her and could helplessly look at her falling down.

The mistress wanted to get a chance to kill the maidservant, so when all of this happened, she quickly pierced the needle to the maidservant's fatal point. The latter's eyes were widened in surprise and she looked at the mistress in hatred. She didn't think that the mistress was such a cruel person!

However, before she could say anything else, she was already losing her breath. The maidservant fell down in a thud, dead. This was covered by the commotion that was created by saving Yao Ling!

When Yao Ling was falling down, Yao Ying quickly saved her before she landed on the ground in a thud. His heart almost stopped beating due to fear! They could lose the baby ah~! He wondered why did people keep targeting at their baby? However, he was pretty sure that this woman didn't know that Yao Ling was pregnant!
