Chapter 437 - The actual wish (2)

Chunpi stood in Ji Man's way and wouldn't let her go inside. ”Miss Nie, the marquis is with Madam. It seems inappropriate for you to barge in there.” It had been so long since the marquis had come over to see Madam, and now this woman wanted to s.n.a.t.c.h him away.

”It's important.” Ji Man furrowed her brow.

Chunpi sneered. ”No matter how important it is, is it more important than Madam?”

Ji Man pursed her lips. Her voice had already been loud enough. If Ning Yuxuan heard her voice, he probably would come out, right?

However, even after she waited a long time, he didn't come out.

Chunpi sighed in relief. She lightly harrumphed and said, ”Miss, you can go back.”

Ji Man was stunned for a long time. She finally scoffed and didn't try to shout again.

He had his wife and concubines to take care of. Right now, she was more like the other woman. Ji Man turned around and left the courtyard. She hated the other woman the most. It really was very difficult to complete Nie Sangyu's wish.

She went to the southern courtyard to look for Nie Qingyun and Errong to discuss what to do. They would be leaving the capital soon to return to Jing Province. Before leaving, they would help her search the capital. At the end, Ji Man nodded and decided she would go interrogate Wen Wan on her own.

However, when she had walked halfway back to Feiwan Courtyard, a group of constables appeared in the marquis's estate and detained her without saying anything.

While Ji Man was stunned, Tanxiang appeared at the other end of the path and shouted, ”It was her! She harmed my mistress!”

Wen Wan was dead. In the short period of time when she went to Linghan Courtyard and then the southern courtyard, Wen Wan had died from poisoning in her room.

Ji Man was at a complete loss. Wen Wan was the female lead. Although her IQ wasn't high enough, she was still an important character. Why had she died so suddenly?

And so easily too?

”It was a highly toxic poison. It took less than two hours to take effect. The deceased had only come in contact with Miss Nie before dying. Moreover, there are witnesses that said Miss Nie had threatened to kill the deceased. Thus, Miss Nie, please come with us to the local jail.” Jing Zhaoyin had personally come here. It was only when there was sufficient evidence that they would dare to come to the marquis's estate to arrest someone.

Ji Man contemptuously smiled. If she actually had a secret dimension ability that allowed her to scatter poison without anyone noticing, Wen Wan would have already died several times in all sorts of ways. Why would she wait until now?

Hearing someone sighing by her ear, Ji Man closed her eyes. She hadn't seen Nie Sangyu in a long time. Recently, she had only been able to occasionally hear her voice.

”Oh, she's dead...” Nie Sangyu sounded as if she was both exclaiming and sighing in relief. ”You helped me get revenge for my past life.”

”Is your wish fulfilled then?” Ji Man hastily asked her in her mind.
