My Silly, Sweet Wife

While the Su Family were searching for the Wei siblings, Wei Donglin and his sister were taking their leisure at Su Qing’s place.

The table was filled with exquisite dishes.

Chu Tiange was bound to a chair beside the table, hands tied behind her back, a rag stuffed in her mouth, her eyes full of terror.

Apart from Wei Donglin and his sister, Su Qing and a stranger were also at the table.

The man showed no expression, his hair covering half of his face, a long sword was lying diagonally by his feet, and his arms crossed in front of him, seemingly uninterested in the dishes before him.

Su Qing wore a broad smile, continuously toasting to Wei Donglin and Wei Yuting: ”I didn’t expect you really killed Shen Lian, hahaha, let’s see how they will cope now. That old bastard Su Mu must be at his wit’s end!”

Wei Donglin drank while sneering: ”Young Master Su Qing, you’re one of the Su Family. Why do you wish for the Su Family’s downfall?”

”Hehe, Mr. Wei, you jest. Though I am of the Su Family, when have Su Mu and Su Cheng ever treated me as family? Since childhood, I was bullied by Su Ze’s lot. If I didn’t know how to endure, I would have been bullied to death. Your act really vented my long-standing hatred! Now I can’t wait for them all to die!”

Su Qing spoke with gritted teeth.

Wei Donglin was able to move freely in the Su Family because of Su Qing’s secret assistance.

No matter how unwelcome Su Qing was, he was still a Su Family descendant, hiding someone was still relatively easy.

Wei Donglin glanced at Su Qing and continued: ”Young Master Su Qing, what’s the situation outside now? If it’s almost over, you should send us out; otherwise, it’s dangerous to stay here.”

After killing Shen Lian, Wei Donglin and his companions quickly hid in Su Qing’s room.

Although they heard some noise outside, they did not know what exactly was happening.

Su Qing flattered: ”Don’t worry, Mr. Wei. Since Young Master Wu Liang instructed me to help, we’re all just Wu Family’s lackeys. I won’t let anything happen to you. I’ll go check the situation outside and find a chance to get you out.”

As he spoke, he stood up and gave Wei Yuting a greedy glance.

”Come on, let Miss Chu have a drink.” When Su Qing went out to gather information, Wei Donglin picked up a glass of wine, approached Chu Tiange, and forcibly removed the rag from her mouth with a sinister smile.

”Help! Somebody, help!” Chu Tiange suddenly screamed as loud as she could.

Wei Donglin covered Chu Tiange’s mouth swiftly, with a cold expression: ”If you want to die, I don’t mind killing you now!”

Chu Tiange struggled fiercely, biting Wei Donglin’s hand hard.

Wei Donglin, in pain, slapped Chu Tiange’s face hard: ”Damn it, you bitch, are you looking for death? Daring to bite me, I swear I’ll have you today!”

He lifted the chair binding Chu Tiange and dragged her towards the bedroom.

Wei Yuting didn’t react, but the cold-faced man beside her spoke up: ”Wei Donglin, what are you doing with this burden now? Just kill her.”

Wei Donglin glanced at the cold-faced man: ”Zui Baichi, you have no idea about the joys of a woman. Your life revolves only around swords; the joy of women far exceeds that.”

This cold-faced man was famously known as Zui Baichi, the ”one-throat-sealing” swordsman.

Zui Baichi, being an assassin for the Heavenly Kill Organization, to focus solely on sword practice, he rendered himself impotent at seventeen, hence keeping his eyes fixed on one thing.

That is the sword.

Even in the Heavenly Kill Organization, Zui Baichi was a top-tier swordsman.

Although only at Half-step Master Realm, in assassination scenarios, his sword could easily kill even Grandmaster Realm experts.

Called upon by Wei Donglin for Shen Lian’s assassination felt somewhat wasteful of his talents.

Zui Baichi dismissed: ”Wei Donglin, once we escape, enjoy your women as you please. But now, the Su Family has already discovered Shen Lian’s death; they certainly won’t let us go. They’ve probably sealed the whole Su Family, escaping might be impossible.”

”Cut, what’s there to fear, isn’t Su Qing here?” Wei Donglin said carelessly.

Zui Baichi sneered: ”Since becoming an assassin, I never place hopes on others, nor trust anyone besides myself, including you.”

He smiled: ”Moreover, do you think Su Qing is reliable?”

Wei Donglin finally stopped, looked at Chu Tiange unwillingly, fearing she might scream again and attract people, he struck her again to make her faint: ”What do you mean?”

Zui Baichi hooked a charming smile.

His expression was extremely enchanting to many women, even leaving Wei Yuting mesmerized.

Despite knowing Zui Baichi was sword-obsessed and an eunuch, Wei Yuting still felt somewhat breathless.

Men love to appreciate beautiful women, likewise, women enjoy handsome men.

Admittedly, Zui Baichi had a gentle masculinity that deeply fascinated women.

If he weren’t an eunuch, many women might throw themselves at him like moths to a flame.

Zui Baichi stood up, having not touched a bite of the food all along, ”Wei Donglin, we’ve known each other for some years now, you should understand, in this world there are no eternal friends, only eternal interests. The Wu Family letting Su Qing assist you, must’ve offered him some benefits. What benefit would make Su Qing willingly give up his bloodline, betray the family that birthed and raised him?”

Wei Donglin’s face tightened as if he realized something: ”Are you saying, what Wu Family promised me, they promised Su Qing too?”

”Haha, seems you’re not a fool.” Zui Baichi acknowledged that Wei Donglin was smart, otherwise, he wouldn’t have risen again under Sunan King’s suppression, hiding under his nose without being discovered by the Su Family.

Wei Donglin’s smile slowly faded, turning grim: ”Zui Baichi, from what you’re saying, only one between me and Su Qing can live?”

”Hehe, I don’t know, but if I were the Wu Family, wanting to control the Su Family naturally requires someone easily manipulated. You, Wei Donglin, though having feuds with the Su Family, your ability and ambition are too great, you’re hard to control. But Su Qing is different, in the Su Family, Su Qing is a useless wastrel, all he does is eat, drink, and play, not even considered a third-rate expert now. Such a person, neither Sunan King nor Wu Family will look up to.”

”However, the easier they are to control, if you were in their position, who would you choose to live?”

The words hit directly at Wei Donglin’s heart.

Wei Donglin shook his head hard, still unable to believe: ”Wu Family saved me once, they wouldn’t go that far, would they?”

”Haha, Wei Donglin, you’re truly laughable. Why did Wu Family save you, don’t you know?”

Wei Donglin clenched his fist hard.

The Wu Family saved him purely to leverage him against the Su Family.

Though he was aware of this for a long time, he always held a sliver of hope.

But now being pointed out by Zui Baichi, Wei Donglin seemed finally to realize, he might be nothing more than a pawn of the Wu Family.

”Everything you said makes sense, but if proven true, I won’t let the Wu Family off either!” Wei Donglin nodded towards Wei Yuting.
