Chapter 151: Famous Across Ten Villages 6
Madam Wu heard this and pulled a face. “Where is Qi Qingyao? Did she die in a ditch somewhere?”
Si Jin said nothing. He looked relaxed, his temperament dignified.
Madam Wu faced the two stunning men at the same time and was, for a moment, a little flustered.
In order to get back to the situation at hand, she raised her chin and yelled, “I won’t leave until she says something today. Don’t even think about completing this house! Or I’ll light it up and burn it!”
“Burn it?” Jiang Yeqian’s handsome face went taut and the corner of his lips pulled tight into a thin line. He began thinking. It seemed that he would have to send a message to the haunted house immediately, get in touch with Bai Mei, and have her send some people over to burn down the Qi family’s home! Then, he would have this group of people dealt with in secret and tie their corpses to rocks before sinking them in Jiuli River.
The expression of the youth beside him suddenly fell. His face was ashen and looked like it was close to melting. He spat out a string of particularly surly and irritable words from his mouth, “I hate humans like you the most.”
Jiang Yeqian went still for a moment. He turned his head to look at Si Jin and noticed that the boy had lost the coy sweetness that he usually displayed in front of Qi Qingyao.
Madam Wu was startled and took a step back involuntarily.
Qi Yuancheng noticed his mother had been frightened by the youth and, as the eldest son of the family, he naturally stood in front of Madam Wu. He faced Si Jin and said, “You’re but a subordinate, so what right do you have to speak. Why don’t you see yourself for the inexperienced youngin you are.”
Si Jin looked a little impatient. “Qi Yuancheng, watch your words.”
Qi Yuancheng was arrogant. “I will not. My sister has now made a fortune but doesn’t plan on taking care of her family. I’ve never seen such a selfish person in my entire life!”
Pausing for a bit, Qi Yuancheng assumed a proud stance and then continued, “My sister used to be a fool. Now she has regained her intelligence and also learned to strategize and scheme. It must be you two foxes from whatever burrow you crawled out of who led my sister astray!”
Saying this, he glanced at Jiang Yeqian. Recalling the document he wrote on the severance of their ties, Qi Yuancheng then said, “You, you are a scholar! You know how to write! I’m certain you are the one who led her down the wrong path.”
After saying this, he did not even pause for the other to respond before turning to Si Jin.
“And you, you wild child from god know where! You’re so clean and fair and put this facade for the town folk. Who are you? We shall not be deceived by the likes of you.”
Jiang Yeqian ignored Qi Yuancheng’s rants but his eyes were fixed on Si Jin in an instant. He was suddenly a little afraid that this mysterious youth would kill everyone in front of him. This child was not a simple person, given he had managed to throw Jiang Yeqian off his trail when he was following him in the middle of the night. Looking at things now, the boy looked as if he would be unable to control his temper. If he were to kill people in broad daylight, he would not be able to deal with the aftermath. The government would definitely arrest him! If it came to that, things would be troublesome.
With no sense of life preservation, Qi Yuancheng continued hollering, “Our Qi family is the one backing Qi Qingyao! You two outsiders shouldn’t even think about tricking my sister.”
…
Qi Qingzhu was standing at the side. When she heard what her mother and brother said, she had already been dazzled. She could not keep up with everyone’s acting at all.
When she returned to her senses, Qi Qingzhu thought that if it weren’t for everyone having that meeting yesterday night, she feared even she would have already believed that it was these two men who had conned her poor sister.’
