Chapter 160: Karma (2)

Translator: Guy Gone Bad

Xiao Mei looked at Yin Lin, eyes wide open, while Yin Lin took off the hairpin on her head and scratched Xiao Mei’s face.

Xiao Mei’s face immediately got streaks of blood, and Xiao Mei screamed painfully.

Before Yin Lin’s hairpin scatching on her face, Xiao Mei had expected that Xu Qing would come on hearing her. Pity that even after Yin Lin stopped, Xu Qing still didn’t show up.

Looking at Xiao Mei in despair, Yin Lin sneered and then left with those four men.

“Madam, you did this to that Surnam Xiao. What if the lord…”

Yin Lin said confidently, “No worries. Without no one backing me up, I wouldn’t dare do this.”

Xiao Mei and Xu Qing were husband and wife by the first marriage. They had always been in a good relations.h.i.+p. But hearing Xiao Mei scream so miserably, Xu Qing still didn’t show up. She really overestimtaed Xiao Mei’s position in Xu Qing’s heart. All in all, Xu Qing was a totally selfish man.

“Is it…Zheng Xuan?” the maid asked tentatively.

Yin Lin nodded, “Yeah! Who else could it be?”

“Zheng Xuan has always been good-tempered. I really didn’t see that he could be so heartless!” the maid got shocked.

Yin Lin sneered, “Zheng Xuan is an extreme man. He loves deep and also hates deep. Do you still remember the day Xiao Mei got a.s.sa.s.sinated?’

The maid nodded, “Sure.”

“The other day I overhead the conversation between the lord and someone else. The one who tried to a.s.sa.s.sinate Xiao Mei was quite likely to be Xu Ziyu, the one who Zheng Xuan really loves. But Zheng Xuan had no idea and injured Xu Ziyu with his own hands. You tell me, since Zheng Xuan knows everything, how deep would he hate Xiao Mei?” gloated Yin Lin.

“Since Zheng Xuan hates her so much, why doesn’t he just kill her?” asked the maid.

Yin Lin took a deep breath, “Isn’t death too easy for her? To let her half dead is the real punishment.”

“Help! Somebody help! Open the door! Open the door!” Suddenly someone was calling for help.

“Madam, someone is calling for help.” said the maid.

Yin Lin frowned, “It sounds like Xu Fei. Since the lord doesn’t care, why would we bother?”

Then she sneered, “Such drama has been on for quite a few times these days. Really boring.”

Xu Fei was Xu Zihan’s cousin. They were quite close.

Before when Zheng Xuan and Xu Zihan were still in a relations.h.i.+p, even Xu Zihan’s cats and dogs benifitted from it.

Xu Fei liked gambling. One time he lost too much, so he told Xu Zihan that gambling house set him up, then sucked up to Xu Zihan and said a lot of nice words of him, then asked him to give me a hand. Xu Zihan then took him to Zheng Xuan out of vanity.

The gambling house then exempted Xu Fei’s debts for Zheng Xuan’s sake. And since then, Xu Fei became more unscrupulous, while the gambling house could only turn a blind eye due to his relations.h.i.+p with Zheng Xuan because they also didn’t want any trouble.

Yin Lin heard that Xu Fei had been losing money these days.

Xu Fei was not the only one who was addicted to gambling, and he was also not the one who was in debt chasing. Xu Rong who owed great debts got killed before the gate of his home by the debt-collectors.

Yin Lin said indifferently, “Those people really couldn’t read the situation. They even can’t protect themselves and still go out to make trouble boldly.”

The maid smiled, “Madam, Xu Family is like the setting sun. They would never bounce back. So you should also make plans for your future.”

Yin Lin nodded, eyes squinting, “I know. I will find a chance to leave. I don’t wanna sink with this broken s.h.i.+p. But before I go, I have to set things straight with Xiao Mei.”

In Xu Qing’s study

“My lord, madam Yin disfigured madam Xiao.” reported Xu Li.

Xu Qing heaved a sigh, “Let it be.”

“My lord, won’t you ask about it?” asked Xu Li.

Xu Qing shook his head, “No.”

Xu Qing clearly knew what Xiao Mei had done to Xu Ziyu, so did Zheng Xuan. Zheng Xuan now should hate Xiao Mei to the bones. If he spoke for Xiao Mei now, he would offend Zheng Xuan.

“What about the things I asked you to look into? Any clue?” asked Xu Qing urgently.

Xu Li nodded, “Zheng Xuan is now very close to the third Crown Princess’ servant Mo Yi. Though Mo Yi is just a servant, he is already a seventeen-year-old level four star magician, who is an expert of music. Last time he ranks the eleventh place in the Top 100 Champions.h.i.+p. One step close to the top ten.”

Xu Qing watched the video about Mo Yi Xu Li played for him, eyes squinting.

“My lord, do you think this Mo Yi would be young master Xu Ziyu?” asked Xu Li.

Xu Qing frowned, “If he is the one Zheng Xuan has been looking for, then he should be Ziyu. But that face is totally different from Xu Ziyu’s.”

“Didn’t Madam Xiao disfigure him before? Mayhe he had a plastic surgery.” said Xu Li.

Xu Qing frowned, “So perfectlly done? I can see no trace at all.”

Xu Li put wrinkles in his brow, “Is it possible Zheng Xuan made a mistake again?”

“He has already suffered once. Do you think he would be so stupid again?” said Xu Qing disapprovingly.

Xu Li, “But Zheng Xuan…” is easy to fool, isn’t he?”

Xu Qing frowned, and also had doubts in his heart.
