Chapter 4 - Death Row Prisoner

Yue

Qianchou thought that his body should be able to recover fully after

resting for one more day, who knows that this body was incomparable to

his previous life. Although his appearance was still a boy, but the

physique was quite bad, almost three days to recover, this was just too

depressing.

The most depressing was remembering about one thing,

it made his heart ache. In the previous life, he still had a few hundred

million in the Swiss bank. After his conversion, the previous life

wealth probably worth more than 10 times of Yue family's. The more he

thought about it, the more painful it was. Finally resigned, even if he

didn't get transported, he would get shot instead.

The most

miserable thing in life is where a child wanted to support, but there

was no one to support. Guo Jianjun's parents died when he was young, he

couldn't give filial piety. Now he had become Yue Qianchou, several

times a day, his parents would come to visit with warmth and took care

of him, and soon he smoothed his lost heart. The face of the two old

people played in his mind, seeing them as his own parents.

Yue

Qianchou wandered at the Yue family's garden, he thought a lot in his

mind. In the previous life he had received education from small to big,

it let him face the country and the people in it, even with the

invisible pressure, there were still some lines where he wouldn't dare

to cross. Now it was different, there were no strict laws of his past

life. Boss Guo, no, it should be Young Master Yue, took a note, to be

here was to be more unrestrained.

What he thought all along was

that how he should kill Xue Gaibao. A headache, he didn't come up with a

proper solution, his biggest concern was his current parents,

especially his mother, the only child of Xue family was very precious to

her.

At the garden, flowers were in full bloom. Yue Qianchou

circled around a few laps, eventually did not come up with a good plan.

He looked at the yellow chrysanthemum flower in front of him, Young

Master Yue's eyes stared for a long time, until he took a deep breath,

put out his hand to pick that flower, sniffed the fragrance under the

nose, his eyes slightly squinted, and muttered, "Indecisiveness leads to

disaster. s.h.i.+t! these days, just drinking water is scary,  what if it

was poisoned? What if i would die instead? Almost make me in depression,

so what if you are the only son of Xue family? I'm the only son of Yue

family! Why make this Father suffer, you can do it right away, but i

still have to consider some things?"

Yue Qianchou left, the garden was quiet, clean stone road, the crushed chrysanthemum flower in hand.

......

Xue

Gaibao was very happy, Younger Cousin these days had been lukewarm to

him. Today, he would spend his evening by enjoying wine at the backyard.

He had always thought that some things have been exposed some time ago,

it was found out by Yue Qianchou, feeling uneasy, it seemed that he was

worried.

Xue family was defeated and he defected to his aunt. In

the Yue family, although he never got treated unjustly. His days had

always been living in inferiority by the pressence of the Young Master,

such a change of living made him uncomfortable. The expenses that his

aunt gives him were big, but usually spent to take care of the

extravagant flowers. With the pressence of Young Master Yue that

pressured him, he hadn't gotten his time to s.h.i.+ne, time and time again,

he buried the resentment in his heart.

One day alone in the

restaurant, he was drunk and complained, "Hah! Yue Zhanggui, if not for

my Xue family, how can you be as successful as today. But you! Only give

me 120 silver every month, ungrateful ah...."

All of his remarks

fell to the ear of the person next table. This person was a bandit

leader of the Octagon village. Knowing that Xue Gaibao was the Swallow

city's richest merchant Yue Zhanggui's nephew, he approached and acted

like a good friend to him. The two hit off a deal easily, then set off

to kidnap Yue Qianchou and use him to blackmail Yue Zhanggui to get some

money and inheritance. Like this, the group of bandits may obtain the

wealth, and Xue Gaibao would obtain the inheritance. What the two people

didn't expect, although they successfully kidnapped Yue Qianchou, but

the latter escaped.

Afterward, he saw that Yue Qianchou had

returned to the family.  Afraid of things to be exposed, Xue Gaibao

readied his heart to kill. But Uncle Yue Zhanggui had sent people to

guard there day and night, he never had the chance to do it.

Originally

quite worried, today his younger cousin cheerfully invited him to drink

while enjoying the moon. His worried heart finally calmed down. Younger

Cousin obviously didn't know that matter about him. He ceased his

endless thought, and decided to find another chance next time.

The maidservant helped him to organize his attire, Xue Gaibao was pleased to go for a drink.

On

the stone table of the garden, the wine and dishes were ready, Yue

Qianchou stared at the lantern and waited alone. The candlelight

flickered, shone upon his hazy face. His fingers were tapping on the

stone table, then the sound of footsteps approached. Yue Qianchou

glanced to the entrance of the garden, his face immediately changed

putting a pair of ardent smile.

"Elder Cousin! You kept me waiting!" Yue Qianchou stood up and laughed.

Xue

Gaibao walked toward himself and said, "My attire is unsightly, how

embara.s.sing, coming to Younger Cousin's appointment like this."

"We

are a family, it is unnecessary to pay much attention to it, Elder

Cousin sit," Yue Qianchou asked him to sit down and picked up the jug to

pour him a drink, his hands accidentally brushed the lantern on the

table.

The lantern fell to the ground, candle extinguished, an

instant black one. Yue Qianchou embara.s.singly said, "Look at me, how

clumsy."

"Younger Cousin should not worry about it, let me pick

it up and light it," Xue Gaibao laughed, he bent over to pick it up.

Just about to look up, he saw a flash of dark shadow hit him. Xue Gaibao

suddenly fell down with a stuffy humph.

Under the moonlight, Yue

Qianchou was seen raising a stick, then jumped through the stone table,

his hands swung down many times against the head on the ground with

rage. A moment later, he finally stopped his action, kicked with his

feet, and said, "d.a.m.n it! Spent so much time with you, afraid you did

not die yet!"

The candle was re-lit, Young Master Yue took the

lantern closer to the ground, and saw a b.l.o.o.d.y corpse, he stabbed it

with a stick, knowing that there was no more breathing, he nodded. Young

Master Yue put the lantern back on the table, he poured a gla.s.s of wine

and took a drink, then smacked his lips, "Finally, with this scourge

gone, i can sleep at ease. It should be fine! Father doesn't believe

they will send the sole young master to the authorities."

Finished,

he walked while carrying the stick, vaguely could hear his mouth

muttered, "d.a.m.n! Such a big mansion, incredibly couldn't find a suitable

weapon, harmed father to find a thick stick from the pile of

firewoods."

Young Master Yue carried the stick to the kitchen,

then casually threw it into the stove, pat his b.u.t.tocks and went out.

Around the gate, he looked for a corner to squat down. After squatting

for a moment, Yue Qianchou felt there was something missing, he grouped

his left chest, suddenly stunned, then sighed, "It seems i have to quit

smoking, d.a.m.n! Where should i find a cigarette to smoke."

The

front gate opened, just finished with the matter, Yue Changgui came back

with two followers in tow. Just a few steps away, he suddenly heard

someone shouted, "Father!"

It was his son's voice, Yue Changgui

was startled, he turned around to see the corner of the gate, there was

Yue Qianchou squatting there, he knitted his brows and said, "Chou'er!

What are you doing here? Your body just recovered, be careful or you

might catch cold."

"Father, i have something to talk to you," Yue

Qianchou said slowly. Yue Changgui knew, his son was here to wait for

him, it was the first time he saw him like this, then he said to his

followers, "You two go back and rest," The two saluted respectfully then

left.

"What happened?" Yue Changgui kindly asked. Yue Qianchou

said "Father, come with me," The former did not ask anymore, and went to

the garden with his son.

Yue Qianchou lifted the lantern on the

stone table and lit up the body on the ground. Looking at the

illuminated ground, there was a body lying down in blood, the head was

smashed heavily, it's hard to tell who it was. However, the body was in

Yue family's attire, he still could be identified, vaguely guessed the

body on the ground, Yue Changgui frowned, then slowly asked, "Is it your

elder cousin?"

Yue Qianchou nodded and observed his father's

expression, but the latter did not reach much. He thought in his mind,

"Sure enough, the matter can be as complicated but also can be as simple

as it is."

Yue Changgui sat down on a stone bench and stared at

his son, then asked, "Why did you do this? Did your kidnapping was done

by him?"

The son did not directly answer his question, just

holding up the jug and poured a full of wine gla.s.s to his father, he

said, "The wine and snacks are clean, no one touched these," Finished,

he gave himself a gla.s.s of wine, then sat down and drank the wine, only

after that he told the matters slowly.

The more Yue Qianchou

explained, the heavier Yue Changgui's face became, the latter pounded

the stone table, angrily said, "It is really that raised dog doing,

actually dared to make Yue family without a heir, i already suspicious

of him, if not for giving face for your mother, i would already make him

suffer till he beg to die."

"Father! I personally killed him, i

fear that mother will get the gist of it..." Yue Qianchou words did not

finish, Yue Changgui waved his hand, "You don't know anything, go back

and rest! I will take care of this."

"Understand, Father, then i should go wash and sleep?" Yue Qianchou asked, the opposite Father nodded his head.

Seeing

the son indifferent leaving, Yue Changgui was a little surprised, he

could never thought that his son would personally kill someone, but more

never thought his son to be actually so calm, he was aware how much the

psychological quality needed for it. It seemed to be stimulated by the

kidnapping incident, but now it's not a bad thing, better than the

previous self of indecisive young master. After drinking a gla.s.s of

wine, he sighed, "Yue family has no lack of successor to carry on."

"I

don't have to be a big brother for years, i don't love the cold edge of

the bed, do not force me to think of you, do not force me to cry, i

will get angry..." His heart was free of trouble, after was.h.i.+ng himself,

Yue Qianchou went to lay on the bed, with a hum of a song, he slowly

and peacefully sleep."
