Chapter 322: Getting Rid of the Old Lady 2

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Qi Qingyao looked at the old lady raising a stink and recalled how the lady often acted like this in the past as well, regularly cursing the name ‘Qi Qingyao’ as if the owner of the name was a dog. Sometimes, when she was upset, she would even kick the old Qi Qingyao to vent her frustrations.

Unfortunately, this time was different from before.

Qi Qingyao opened her eyes, her expression clear and cold.

Her eyes were coated with frost and snow.

She uttered, with a voice that was soft and slow, “Who are you, to have the nerve to come here and attempt to teach me a lesson?”

The old lady was stunned for a moment, then said even more angrily, “I’m your grandmother!!”

The corner of Qi Qingyao’s lips curled up into a very sarcastic smile.

The old lady felt she was being mocked.

She felt that this new version of Qi Qingyao was very dangerous.

This made the old lady say nervously, “If you dare to lay a finger on me today, I’ll report you! I’ll tell them that you’ve abandoned your blood relatives.”

“Anything else?” Qi Qingyao asked calmly.

The old lady, “...”

For some reason, she could not help but gulp.

She did not dare speak.

Under Qi Qingyao’s cool brows laid a domineering ruthlessness.

“Madam, let me tell you some good news.”

She walked to the side slowly and sat down.

The maid immediately served them all tea.

Qi Qingyao took a sip of the warm tea to moisten her throat.

“Ever since I started living in this mansion, many people have come one after the other to try to kill me. Some have even tried to claim they’re my biological parents. They were prepared to provoke and offend me.”

The old lady, “???”

Even Qi Boli and Madam Wu were taken aback.

There were people pretending to be Qi Qingyao’s biological parents? What was… going on?

Qi Qingyao asked with a faint smile, “Do you know what happened to them in the end?”

“...”

The old lady really wanted to speak, but her throat seemed to be blocked by something. She was so anxious she could not say a word.

Qi Qingyao asked again in a laid-back and leisurely tone, “The Jin family is in the coffin business, right?”

The old lady frowned and looked at the girl sitting across from her. She might have looked all smiles, but she was actually more akin to a lone wolf momentarily lying dormant…

The old lady gulped once more.

Qi Qingyao continued, with a dark and gloomy gaze, “I think I’ve probably been securing a lot of good business for them recently.”

The old lady, “...” What did that mean? Securing a lot of good business for a coffin shop? Would that not mean…

Qi Boli and Madam Wu felt a chill run down their spines.

They had not seen her for just a few days, but the girl had grown so much since then. They felt very strange.

Qi Qingyao took another sip of tea.

Then, she said with a soft smile, “Steward Zhang, if you let these kinds of strange people into my house again, I’m afraid you won’t be able to see tomorrow’s sun either.”

Steward Zhang’s back was draped in cold sweat, and he immediately knelt onto the ground.

His head was hung low, just above the ground.

“Young mistress, this old slave will never make the same mistake again. Please forgive me.”

Qi Qingyao looked at Steward Zhang, who was kneeling on the ground, her gaze void of any warmth.

She knew what they thought.

Although she had won this mansion, Steward Zhang, as well as many other servants in the mansion, did not take her seriously. They thought she was just lucky. When Lu Yan still lived here, they were even more…

Perhaps in these people’s eyes, Lu Yan was still their true master.

She was just a passerby.

She really wanted to whip Steward Zhang now.

However, he was very old.

Qi Qingyao thought deeply for a moment before she spoke.

“Since you’re old, I’ll let you go this time.”

Steward Zhang’s back was completely drenched.

He kowtowed his head to the ground three times before daring to get up.

Qi Qingyao was in a good mood, but that did not mean that Si Jin was in a good mood too.

Si Jin did not like disobedient people. He asked with an extremely innocent smile, “Sister, are we really not going to kill him?”

Steward Zhang knew this boy’s methods well, and he was shaking all over from shock.

Qi Qingyao noticed that Steward Zhang’s legs had begun to tremble, so she said, “This is Steward Zhang’s first offense, after all. I’ll give him a chance to turn over a new leaf.”

Si Jin let out an ‘oh’.

Steward Zhang felt like he had barely escaped the jaws of death.

Si Jin then pointed at the old lady who had been causing trouble.

“What about this old lady in front of us? I can kill her, cut her into eight pieces, and throw her into the Jiuli River to feed the fishes.”

The old lady’s face suddenly turned green. She pointed at Qi Qingyao’s nose and said, “You—You—You, Qi Qingyao, are you really going to kill me?”

Qi Qingyao looked at the frightened old lady with a smile and asked, “Madam, you’ve lived in Qingzhou City for so long. Don’t you know the rules that govern this city?”

The old lady, “...”

Of course.

She knew.

Qingzhou City was… very messy.

Here, all the city’s powerful forces had their overlaps.

Whoever was stronger was the boss.

Even if one reported a murder or arson to an official, as long as the other party was a big shot, the government office would not entertain it.

It could be said that the government office only existed to regulate small conflicts between the forces and that it was just a middleman.

The old lady’s face was as gray as a cracked concrete wall.

Meanwhile, Qi Qingyao’s eyes were as sharp as a hidden knife lit by a dim fire.

“Since you’re aware of the rules here, if you insist on wanting to die, I can do the honors.”

“You—You’re crazy.” The old lady did not know whether it was because she was incredibly angry or incredibly frightened, but her lips could not help but tremble.

Qi Qingyao smiled slightly. “Hearing such words in Qingzhou City, I have to suppose that was a compliment! I’ll accept this compliment.”

Just a few days after arriving here, Qi Qingyao knew that if your ideal was just to survive as a rat would survive in the sewers, you would have to blend in somehow.

If one wanted to gain a foothold in Qingzhou City, one could not live without any means.

Thus, a term such as ‘crazy’ should be the highest compliment one could bestow upon another.

Qi Boli looked at Qi Qingyao and the old lady, who were at each other’s throats, and could not help but say, “Qi Qingyao, don’t talk about fighting and killing anymore.”

With half-lidded eyes, Qi Qingyao faintly asked, “Are the two of you looking to die too?”

Qi Boli held his forehead and murmured, “You’re not our biological daughter.”

“??” Qi Qingyao suddenly froze in place.

Madam Wu continued hurriedly, “We came here this time, not to freeload for food and drinks, nor to think about taking advantage of you.”

The old lady would have never thought that Qi Boli would actually say that in this situation. She said hastily, “You—You two—”

Qi Boli and Madam Wu exchanged glances. No one paid any attention to the twittering old lady.

Madam Wu was calm. “Qi Qingyao, ask your servants to stand down.”

Qi Qingyao stood still, in silence.

Her eyebrows sank.

Her eyes were covered in mist, and they were cold and gloomy.

She ordered, “Si Jin, stay behind. The rest of you, leave.”

The old lady straightened her neck with an expression that seemed to say she would rather die than leave.

Qi Qingyao had no choice but to say, “Take this annoying old lady away.”

Steward Zhang did not dare to disobey Qi Qingyao’s orders right now. He immediately called the servants to drag the old lady out.

Before Dong Jing left, he took another glance at the side hall.

After everyone left, Qi Qingyao asked Si Jin to guard the door.

She told him to make sure no one could listen in to the conversation in the side hall.

Si Jin nodded slightly and stood quietly at the door like a statue, preventing anyone from approaching.
