Chapter 926: Threaten Shen Yunya’s Confidant 2
After watching her leave, the guard took her to the Bailan Alliance in secret.
“Done meeting?” Thinking that Mobai should have received the letter by now, Feng Tianlan raised her hand and touched the petals of the white orchid. She didn’t know what expression he would have when he saw the red kiss mark.
Rui’er watched Feng Tianlan, like a fairy in a painting, gently twisting the petals of the white orchid. Gritting her teeth, Rui’er said, “I won’t betray Niang Niang. It’s useless to threaten me with Brother Qi.”
“Really?” Feng Tianlan picked a white orchid and then plucked the petals one by one. The petals landed on the ground, and she stepped on them lightly. “You know how I died, don’t you? You were involved, weren’t you?” she asked.Rui’er’s face was pale. Although she entered the residence after Shen Qingdai died, she was involved with Shen Qingdai’s death. She knew about the entire process, including the dumplings later on. Therefore, after that incident, she never touched dumplings again.
“What do you think of making your lover die the way I did and then make him into dumplings for you to eat afterward? What do you think?” Feng Tianlan gave the pale and sweaty Rui’er a condescending look.
Rui’er trembled and looked up at Feng Tianlan. Finally, she said with certainty in a trembling voice, “Brother Qi is innocent. You can’t do that, and you won’t do that.”
“Innocent?” Feng Tianlan let out a soft snort, grabbed the stamen of the white orchid in her hand, and said coolly, “Was I not innocent before? Do you think people who have suffered would be kind? He might be innocent, but are you innocent?”
Rui’er felt that Feng Tianlan’s hand was extremely cold. The stamen felt like an ice block freezing her hands. The coldness seemed to seep through her heart and made her tremble involuntarily.
“You aren’t such a person.” Rui’er pretended to be calm. The former Shen Qingdai was a kind person and wouldn’t do such maniacal things.
Feng Tianlan chuckled softly and said, “Your lover is a bit dark, and his face isn’t easy to peel. He would definitely have to suffer more when the time comes…”“Shen Qingdai!” Rui’er raised her head and glared at Feng Tianlan. “I will take care of the wrongdoer. Brother Qi is innocent. You can’t do this. In that case, what would be the difference between you and Niang Niang?”
“Boil you, for your lover to eat?” Feng Tianlan reached out to touch Rui’er’s face, and the corners of her lips curled up slightly. “Rui’er, you have such a pretty face. It would be such a pity if I cooked it.”
Rui’er turned her head away and avoided Feng Tianlan’s gaze. “If you want to vent, take it out on me. Brother Qi is innocent, and I would never betray Niang Niang.”
“Of course, you have to bear the consequences, but that would be way too easy on you.” Feng Tianlan retracted her hand and looked at her coldly. “I don’t have that much patience. Either you listen to me, or I’ll turn your lover into dumplings and make you eat them. Then I’ll return you to Shen Yunya’s side.”
“You…”
Feng Tianlan interrupted her coolly, saying, “Don’t think that I won’t dare to do so. You can try and stall, but I will only give you a quarter of an hour to think about it. After time runs out, my people will do it.”
Brother Qi was a normal civilian, very ordinary, and hadn’t ever done any bad things, so he was indeed an innocent person.
Although she wanted to take revenge, she wouldn’t kill an innocent person. However, she could send Brother Qi away so that Rui’er would think that he was dead or that she had eaten him. What Rui’er would do depended on who was more important in her heart.
