Chapter 107: Fall into the TrapTranslator: Antonia
In the room of Jian Qingyou, Mo Qianxue was making fun of her, “Xin Yiming is really a quick-doer. I didn’t expect that he made it so soon and smoothly.”
“Yes.” With one simple word, Jian Qingyou’s pride was visible on her face.
It wasn’t easy to reach an agreement with the Wan family, which wouldn’t have conceded unless some price was paid. In addition, that day grandma only compromised to further think about the marriage but didn’t totally agree, let alone to persuade her father and mother. She herself hadn’t expected such a quick settlement of the marriage between her and Xin Yiming.
What Jian Qingyou could figure out, Mo Qianxue was also clear. She was really happy for her friend. Xin Yiming was good-looking, talented and resourceful. Jian Qingyou was blessed to marry this guy.Yet, she still wanted to tease her. Mo Qianxue put on a suggestive smile, “Tell me, did you do anything that day in my restaurant?”
Hearing the question, Jian Qingyou blushed immediately, bashfully twisting her handkerchief, “Qianxue, stop making fun of me.”
“Qingyou…” Mo Qianxue was about to tease her more when Siqin came in to report that madam Jian wanted eldest young lady in the reception hall.
Jian Qingyou pulled Mo Qianxue to take her there.
Yet, Mo Qianxue thought that Ning Shaoqing was waiting for her at Tingfengquan, so she said goodbye to Jian Qingyou since the gift was already given to her.
Jian Qingyou didn’t insist to detain her longer and ordered Siqin to walk her to the gate.
Siqin and Mo Qianxue walked along a long corridor when a servant girl hurried came over, “Sister Siqin, sister Nongcha said eldest lady needed you over there.”The girl looked familiar to Mo Qianxue. She seemed to be Duoer, a third-level servant girl in Jian Qingyou’s courtyard.
Hearing this, Siqin hesitated, “What about Mrs. Ning?”
Duoer smiled, “Sister Nongcha told me to walk Mrs. Ning to the door.”
Siqin looked at Duoer and then at Mo Qianxue.
Seeing Siqin’s dilemma, Mo Qianxue persuaded her, “You can leave now. Just let Duoer do it for you.”
Mo Qianxue thought that on such a big day when everyone was so busy, there must be something urgent that suddenly Siqin was needed.
Since she knew this girl, there was nothing for her to worry about. Besides, she knew how to get to the door herself. It wouldn’t be difficult.
Siqin hesiatated for a while, then she apologized to Mo Qianxue and left in a hurry.
However, soon after Siqin left, another servant girl rushed out and bumped into Mo Qianxue. The two fell to the ground together.
Mo Qianxue wanted to scold the girl when Duoer instantly slapped her in the face.
The girl also seemed to be frightened and didn’t talk back when being slapped. She only held Mo Qianxue up and kept saying sorry.
She made Mo Qianxue felt pitiful towards her and believe that she must be busying with something too. Therefore, Mo Qianxue waved hand and let her go.
Duoer supported her to get up, yet unexpectedly, upon the moment Mo Qianxue stood up, there was a nasty pain in her ankle.
“Mrs. Ning, you must have sprained your ankle. Allow me to hold you to that room and message your ankle. I guess it wouldn’t be late if you take a rest.”
Mo Qianxue nodded since the girl looked so sincere and there was indeed a house several steps away.
She entered a room and looked around. It seemed to be a study, yet there weren’t too many books in the room. Most sub boxes of the bookcase were vacant. Obviously, the owner wasn’t a fan of books.
Although there weren’t many books, there was a special aroma in the air, which smelled like sandalwood or certain kind of flower. Mo Qianxue didn’t pay much attention to it since it was a habit for these people to use fragrance.
She remembered that in Jian Qingyou’s room, there was always a faint scent of chrysanthemum.
At the sight of the teapot, Duoer poured tea for Mo Qianxue, then got down, took off her shoes to help her rub the sprained ankle.
“Mrs. Ning, you must be tired after a long walk. Why not have some tea.”
Mo Qianxue had nothing to do except for glancing around, so she listened to Duoer’s advice and indeed felt a little thirsty, taking up the teacup and drank the tea.
Seeing Mo Qianxue already drank the tea, Duoer rubbed the ankle and suddenly looked embarrassed, “Mrs. Ning, can I go to use the bathroom?”
Mo Qianxue tentatively moved her ankle, found it didn’t that hurt, secretly praising the girl’s message technique, and replied, “Go to use it. I think my ankle is well now. Later, I will leave on myself. Don’t bother to get back here.”
“No, I can’t do that. Ah…” Duoer argued but her belly protested to make her cry out involuntarily.
After, people had to answer the call of nature. Mo Qianxue worried about her and promised, “Go to use the bathroom. I’ll wait you here.”
“Then, I’m going now. Please wait for me Mrs. Ning…”
Duoer said and ran away quickly, looking like she couldn’t bear anymore.
“Why is this room so warm?” Soon after Duoer left, Mo Qianxue felt an irresistible wave of warmth within her body. She unconsciously picked up a fan and swayed it, but she only felt warmer and warmer and a little dizzy.
She looked out but didn’t spot Duoer. Drooping down, she put on the shoe and was about to get out to take an air when a person came in through the door.
At first, Mo Qianxue thought it was Duoer and looked up, “Duo…”
She swallowed the name, because that person wasn’t Duoer but a man.
The man had a fair round face, wore an expensive gold-thread woven jacket. He was good-looking, but the swelling eye bags from sexual excess made him look extremely dispirited.
Mo Qianxue squinted and smelt a rat. This person seemed to be the man that she had met at Jian Qinghua’s courtyard that day.
At the sight of Mo Qianxue, the second lord Jian was surprised at her beauty. With a disgusting smile flashed in his swelling eyes, he shut the doors.
The woman before him had fair complexion like snow, and the slim eyes on the heart-shaped face wasn’t beautiful but had a special charm and lure which made her as tender as plum blossom in winter and as bright as white jasmine in spring.

Su Qi sneered at the rapid breathing in the inner room and quickly flashed into it. The one in there was exactly the seventh young lady Jian Qingyou, as he had expected.
She wore a transparent gauze to cover part of her body and, with a flushing face, half-lay on the couch behind the berth curtains.
He knew it was this bitch!
Her surprised, shy, expectant and eager expression disgusted Su Qi. Before she made a reaction, Su Qi gently dotted with his fan and Jian Qingzhen passed out before she could see him clearly.
Su Qi didn’t stay a second longer. Did she want it so much? Then, he could help.
He stamped his feet and flew out through the ventilation window.
Today was a big day for Jian mansion, the most it had were people. In a minute, Su Qi caught a male servant, pinched his jaw to open his mouth, threw into a pill and then patted his back, then the drug was already swallowed by the servant.
Su Qi felt lucky that he had saved the drug that he had gotten from a raper caught by him last time. Today, this drug finally played its role.
The servant didn’t see clearly the person coming at him, and after only a gust of wind, something slipped down his throat. In panic, he wanted to shout but couldn’t make a sound. Naturally, he struggled with fright.
This was a good drug. A lucky guy you were. In a while, you would know what a bless was. Su Qi still wore his sneer, regardless that the servant was struggling desperately, grabbed him by the color and threw him into the study through the small window.
He took a glance at the servant. Now the guy blushed and fumbled his clothes to take them off.
Evilness flickered in Su Qi’s eyes and secretly praised the drug from the raper. It worked out so soon, saving quite much time for him. Great.
At the moment, without hesitation, after throwing the male servant to the couch, he flew out and found himself a good cover behind a big tree. Leaning against the branch, he squinted and waited for the specular drama to be on play.
After while, there were sounds of groans of the man and woman. The woman’s hard-to-get voice was extremely harsh to the ear.
Su Qi heard the sounds, raised his narrowing eyes, and the sneer on his face turned into scorn. He guessed that the bitch should have waken up by the servant’s toughing. But in the dim room, she mistook the guy as Su Qi and still tried her best to please the guy.
Another moment later, footsteps rang outside the study room. The play was to come. Su Qi swayed open his fan and leisurely fanned it.
“Mrs. Liu, Mrs. Zhang, I guess you’re tired from the garden tour. Over there was a study. Shall we take a rest there?” The second madam Jian received the look from Cuizhu in the dark and hurriedly invited two madams in this way.
She had already inquired information about Su Qi, who was over eighteen years old. Usually, a marriage would be settled for the legal ladies and lords of a noble family when they turned eighteen.
Besides, the Su family had taken pains to select a good wife for Su Qi.
The old madam Su had announced that she didn’t care about family background. As long as it was a decent family, as long as Su Qi liked the lady, this woman was eligible to become a member of Su family. As for whether she would be a wife or concubine, it depended on their own ability.
Loads of ladies in the capital were waiting for the opportunity, but her daughter succeeded in advance.
As long as Su Qi fell into the trap, with these two madams as witnesses, he could never deny it and get away.
Even if her daughter couldn’t become his wife, it would be good to be his concubine, which was far more expectable than a normal wife due to its royal rank.
After all, Qingzhen was a legal daughter, her future couldn’t be bad. Of course, it would be best that she got pregnant this time so that her status would be more unmovable.
As she dreamed about the good future, the second madam walked with more confidence.

Seeing the second lord Jian walking up while shutting the doors, Mo Qianxue understood what was going on.
It didn’t require too much brain to know this was a trap, including having another person walked her to the door, accidently bumping into her, rubbing her ankle and so on.
All those were excuses leading her step by step into the trap!
In modern times, when she saw such a scene on TV, she used to call the victim woman silly to fell into the stupid trap or be drugged. She had found such women incredibly silly and stupid while watching the TV series.
Sometimes, she got so pissed off that she even wished to break into the TV to punch the woman who set up the trap and cursed the silly one with spitting.
Now she became one of those stupid women, a fool that willingly walked into a trap which wasn’t complicated to understand at all.
The second lord Jian approached step by step. There wasn’t time to care about the shoe. Mo Qianxue looked up suddenly, trying to stand up, but found herself to weak to do so.
“Beauty, your feet is injured. Don’t waste your strength because you can’t stand up. Let me help you.” The second lord Jian didn’t hurry to get near her and stopped a meter away.
As a son of concubine, he didn’t have too much allowance, so he could only order those pretentious constitutes at brothels.
Even though his mother had arranged a few girls for him and he often stole some servant girls in the mansion, none of the women was as pretty as Mo Qianxue.
This woman didn’t seem to have a noble background and wore ordinary clothes, but she had certain elegance and nobility that couldn’t be hidden back.
With such a woman in his hand, he decided to appreciate and have some fun with her to the full before actually taking her!
He regarded himself as a sweet gentleman.
Mo Qianxue couldn’t breath smoothly and stumbled her way into a chair.
Her heart fell into sheer coldness at the sight of this pretentiously kind asshole.
Was she going to be ruined today?
No way!
She couldn’t give up on herself. She wouldn’t let this asshole get his way.
At this moment, she…only had herself to depend on!
Her eyes rolled and an idea occurred to her. Pretending to tidy up her hair, she took off the plain hairpin in her hair.
“Lord. I don’t want to go anywhere. I just feel a little dizzy and so weak. Can you help me get into the room to have a rest?”
Amidst the soft voice and as the hairpin was taken off, the silky hair flowed down like a waterfall onto her shoulders, her breasts and knees… The smooth hair floated as Mo Qianxue’s head moved, like a dancing brook in the air.
Such a luring scene made the dispirited man more amazed. His pupils expanded instantly, and his mouth hung open with drizzles in the corners.
Mo Qianxue’s skin was while like pearls. At this moment, as the drug took effect on her, the white skin began to display fresh redness which was more enchanting than a rose.
In addition, as she deliberately tried to attract his attention, her voice turned softer and more tempting, sounding both sweet and a little husky.
The second lord Jian had planned to tease her, but such a voluntary beauty almost drove him crazy.
He only in secrecy thanked his friend who had given him the drug. Indeed, no matter how chaste a woman was, as long as she took the drug and smelt the fragrance, she would turn into the sluttiest slut in the world.
It seemed that there was already a fire of lust burning within her body. He felt happy to be the lucky man today.
The second lord Jian called her sweet and rushed over.
Mo Qianxue, on the other hand, took the opportunity to stab the long-prepared hairpin, using all of her strength, into her own collarbone, which was bare now after she had felt warm and opened the clothes.
“Ouch…” As the silver hairpin cut in, a wave of violent pain transmitted into her scalp.
Feeling the pain, the dizziness occupying her mind instantly reduced much and her body wasn’t so much controlled by the drug as a moment ago.
Without hesitation, Mo Qianxue lifted her leg and kicked right at the part of the second lord Jian who was dashing over.
He didn’t expect that the beauty that couldn’t get her waist straight and powerlessly lay in the chair smiling seductively at him the last moment was able to stand up the next moment.
In the nick of time, her action was so quick that he had no chance to escape.
With a miserable yelling, the second lord Jian collapsed to the ground, covering his key part.
Mo Qianxue didn’t stop, because the heated warmth in her body began to surge up again.
She must leave the room before the man on the ground recovered.
Since this was a trap, there must be guards at the door, so leaving through the door would be suicide.
She checked around and didn’t walked through the door. Instead, she moved a chair and decided to climb out by the overhead window.
There wasn’t time to put on the shoe. Mo Qianxue used up her strength to push a desk to the windown and then put a chair on it, finally she drained her last drop of strength to climb onto the window.
Before getting up the window, she remembered to knocked over the desk and chair so that if the asshole wanted to catch her, he would either circumvent around the yard to the back or rebuild the desk and chair.
Either of the methods would win her some time and opportunity to escape.
The window was high, but Mo Qianxue jumped off without any hesitation.
Then rang a loud bang followed by her scream.
