The birthday banquet was ruined, the stage was empty, and the dishes were cold.
The moon was high in the sky, and there were shadows under the lanterns. There were chaotic footsteps everywhere. Some people were running, some were walking, and some were sobbing softly.
Wu Yuan knelt on the ground and begged, like a humble, bereaved dog.
Xu Zhihuai felt an indescribable joy in his heart.
After three years, she was finally able to breathe a sigh of relief.
Boom, boom, boom!
Wu Yuan quickly bled from his forehead, and the blood spattered, making Xu Zhihuai frown.
Disgusting people, even the blood flowing out of their bodies is dirty.
Wei Li sat on the Grand Master's chair with a relaxed expression, put his hands on the table, tapped his knuckles on the table, and made a moderate sound: "The person is dead, the letter is burned, there is no evidence... Master Wu wants to Do you want to pick up a few people to support you?"
Wu Yuan was so dizzy from knocking that he said incoherently: "I don't dare, I don't dare. The water in Huaizhou is too deep. It's all thanks to Xie Junhao and the Xie family... I have so much courage..." Before he could finish his words, he leaned back straight. , fainted.
Xu Zhihuai hurriedly called out: "Uncle!"
She pretended to be concerned, squatted on the ground, and deliberately pressed his philtrum with her long nails to see if he was pretending to be faint.
Wu Yuan had no reaction.
Worthless bastard!
He fainted, but the matter was not over yet.
Xu Zhihuai pondered for a moment, until his eyes filled with tears, he slowly raised his head to look at Wei Li, and asked pitifully: "Master Marquis, is my uncle dead?"
"It's not that easy to die."
Wei Li lowered his eyes with a heavy look, raised the corners of his mouth, and suddenly told her a story: "Three years ago, I encountered a very difficult case when I went to Huizhou. The corrupt official swallowed his tongue and committed suicide before he died. The account books were all burned, and they squandered a hundred thousand taels of pension money until nothing was left. The situation is serious, and even confiscating the house and beheading is not enough to resolve the case. What do you think I should do?"
Xu Zhihuai shook his head silently.
Wei Li stood up, took three steps at a time and came to her, and stretched out his hand to her.
Xu Zhihuai didn't hesitate and immediately held his hand, leaning her soft body against his tight chest, looking delicate and frail.
Wei Li turned his wrist and put one hand around her waist, as if hugging but not hugging her. His thin lips were right against her pink ears, and his voice was low and magnetic: "There is a kind of torture called Lingchi, do you know? "
Xu Zhihuai bit his lower lip and hummed in a long voice.
"That time, I specially selected a stocky master and tied him in the center of the yard, and ordered people to cut him off one by one. He cut off hundreds of pieces of meat for a day and a night, and the breath was still alive. The scene was very exciting. But the most exciting thing is that the account book that was burned suddenly found its whereabouts again... Sure enough, life has twists and turns everywhere."
Charming voice, bloody story.
What is more terrible than death is life worse than death.
A trace of complexity flashed across Xu Zhihuai's face.
Who will he want to punish tonight?
She looked up again and met those bright black eyes.
Wei Li suddenly asked her: "How much do you know about the Wu Mansion's secrets?"
Xu Zhihuai's eyes flashed and he said timidly: "Actually... the beauty that my uncle is going to give to the Marquis tonight is not me."
Paper can't contain the fire, he will know it sooner or later.
Wei Li looked at her quietly: "Who is that?"
"A qingguan, my uncle bought it from outside for two hundred taels."
Xu Zhihuai took a deep breath, gently grabbed his sleeves, and said shyly and timidly: "It was me who took the initiative to seduce Mr. Hou... It was me who had the audacity to be his woman. As long as I can leave the Wu Mansion, I can do anything Mr. Hou asks me to do." OK."
She bowed down and made a small gesture, like a stray cat trying to please, its weak claws trying to catch something, looking pitiful.
Only then did Wei Li understand why she worked so hard to please him.
It turns out that she is not a scheming beauty, but a foolish child.
He said calmly: "It's a pity, I don't need women, especially an innocent and beautiful woman like you."
Xu Zhihuai's pupils trembled slightly, his face flushed, and he took the initiative to put his arms around Wei Li's neck: "Don't you like me, Lord Marquis?"
Wei Li lowered his eyes to look at her, with a bottomless light in his eyes, and his rough fingers gently rubbed the skin that could be broken by blowing: "Why taste it again if you have already tasted it?"
What does he think of her, is she just a leftover that he throws away after eating?
But it didn't matter, she didn't care what he thought.
Xu Zhihuai lowered his eyes, hiding his true emotions deeply. He put his little hand around his neck with a little force and kissed him without shame.
Who can resist those soft and waxy lips?
It was originally just a slight temptation, but unexpectedly, he turned his back on the guest, entangled their lips and teeth, and conquered the city.
There was a cool flavor in his warm breath, as cold and ruthless as his person.
When they separated, Xu Zhihuai could hardly breathe, and his red lips were a little swollen.
She blinked and looked at him, her watery eyes like a clear mirror, reflecting his stern brows.
He is a man after all, and even a man cannot escape the word "arrogant".
Why try it again?
The result is still uncontrollable.
It is easier to become addicted to the taste that you have obviously tasted.
Xu Zhihuai will not give up easily.
She deliberately bit her slightly red and swollen lips and said timidly: "After tonight, I will no longer have a foothold in Wu Mansion... Where else can I go?"
Pretending to be pitiful is never the best method, but it is the most useful.
Wei Li's eyes were still cold, and he took off the jade ring again and gently threw it to her.
Xu Zhihuai subconsciously took it with both hands, wondering what it meant.
"Thank you, Lord Marquis...Do you want to reward me, Lord Marquis?"
"So be it."
At this time, Wu Yuan, who had fainted on the ground, groaned, and suddenly there was movement.
Xu Zhihuai turned around and blinked his clear eyes: "Master Hou, my uncle seems to be awake."
Wu Yuan was groggy and struggled to sit up. Before he could take a full breath, he saw Xu Zhihuai nestled delicately in Wei Li's arms. He glanced over with his eyes darkly, with a sinister expression and a mocking smile.
The smile was inexplicably weird, and it sent shivers down Wu Yuan's spine, as if he had seen a ghost.
Is she really Xu Zhihuai?
Are you afraid that you might have hit something evil? Possessed by a ghost?
Xu Zhihuai understood the confusion and shock in his eyes and pursed his lips slightly. She sat back and watched the show, and listened to Wei Li calmly instructing his men to keep everyone in the Wu Mansion under guard, and anyone who disturbed them would be beaten to death with sticks.
Wu Yuan cried and shouted, but the guard covered his mouth and nose, almost suffocating himself and rolling his eyes.
Huang Jiwei's attack was very ruthless. Xu Zhihuai was secretly palpitating. He grabbed Wei Li's sleeve and asked timidly: "Master Marquis, won't you lock me up too?"
"You are no longer from the Wu Mansion, and I will not implicate you."
After a night of fun, there was no need to kill her now.
Xu Zhihuai said hurriedly: "My maid Jinhua is also innocent. Please let her go. She has been with me since she was a child, and she is also a poor person."
Wei Li raised his eyebrows.
When a disaster approaches, the person she wants to protect is her maid, not her aunt.
This family is really interesting.
Seeing him staring at him, Xu Zhihuai continued: "My aunt and uncle never regarded me as a family member. They took advantage of the inheritance left by my parents and coerced me into doing the most despicable things. If I refused, they They won't let me leave, won't let me get married, and want me to stay here as a slave for them..."
She was not a crybaby, but now her tears were falling down. It's a pity that this beauty, pear blossoms and rain, cannot enter Wei Li's heart.
Xu Zhihuai lowered his eyes and wiped away his tears with a charming expression: "Master Hou is the only one who can save me."
Wei Li said calmly: "I only know how to kill people, but I don't know how to save people."
"But Lord Marquis saved me tonight."
Xu Zhihuai fought for it with words unwillingly, his heart beating hard.
Wei Li's eyebrows wrinkled slightly, then quickly dispersed, and the corners of his mouth curled up, half-smiling.
"good."
Wei Li touched her lips gently: "If you want to leave, I can find a good place for you."
Xu Zhihuai was slightly startled.
Naive women are always dull and unaware, like lambs waiting to be slaughtered, delicious and innocent, waiting for others to eat them up.
