CHAPTER 463 2 : RUSE IN THE RUSE (2/2)
After he finished sorting out Xie Yun, Pei Qianhao shifted his gaze to a tree near him. “Come out.”
Soon, a woman with a smiling countenance emerged from behind the tree. She walked over and hooked her arm around his, singing his high praises. “Husband, your combat skills are pretty good.”
Pei Qianhao tickled her nose. “If they were pretty good, why did you still make a move? Were you trying to mock your husband?”
After spotting this scene, the guards around them quickly left the woods, giving peace and silence to the couple.
She bent down and carefully examined the frame of the fan. “A fan made of human bones; considering the smaller width of the bones, it seems like they would have belonged to a woman.”
To think that he slaughtered a woman and used her bones to make a fan!
At that thought, Su Xi-er immediately broke the fan into pieces, separating out the bones before quietly burying them.
“Xi-er, everything has gone according to your plan; Xie Yun currently lies in the poisonous plants at the bottom of this slope Even if they aren’t fatal, the lower half of his body will be paralysed for a long time.”
“This punishment is considered light. Since he cares so much about power, we’ll take that away from him.” Su Xi-er stood up and dusted her hands.
She’s the only person in this world who speaks so lightly about taking power away.
“As you wish.” Pei Qianhao whispered into her ear before taking her hand, slowly leading her out of the woods.
When they were about to reach the mountain road, Pei Qianhao stopped in his tracks and deeply gazed at her. “You are not the real Su Xi-er, so you don’t have to care about the matters of her maiden family. This Prince’s investigation found that the Su Family didn’t treat her well.”
“Since I have entered her body, her everything has now become mine. It is already considered evil to seize another’s body; it would be even worse to disregard everything about her history as well.” Su Xi-er softly explained with a serious look in her eyes.
Pei Qianhao reached out his hand to press her head against his chest. “Xi-er, you are very kind… You’re the kindest person in this world.”
“I will naturally be kind to those who treat me well. For those who don’t, I’m sure you must have heard about the story of a soldier who once leaked important military information. I ordered for his tendons and bones to be broken.”
