Fated to My Billionaire Husband

Chapter 1459: Chapter 1459: Many People Want You Dead

”What do you think?” she retorted.

”...”

Mo Lan asked with a cold laugh, ”Do you think I should have feelings for you?”

Qi Ruigang’s face turned dark and terrifying.

If it were any other time, his look would have made her shiver in fear.

But now, when she no longer feared death, what was there to be afraid of?

Since death was inevitable, why not fight back.

”Qi Ruigang, you have caused me seven years of harm and suffering. You don’t know how often I dream of your death! Do you think I have feelings for you?!” Mo Lan grasped his collar, screaming fiercely.

”In this life, my greatest wish has been to get rid of you! Now, my wish has changed; my greatest wish is to watch you die! Only when you are dead will the resentment in my heart dissipate!”

Qi Ruigang slightly widened his sharp eyes: ”You wish for my death?”

”Yes!”

”Slap—”

Qi Ruigang slapped her across the face with force, and Mo Lan fell, her cheek instantly swelling red.

”Mo Lan...” Jian Yufei looked at her with heartache, ”Stop provoking him, just stop!”

Why torment herself? Provoking Qi Ruigang would do her no good.

What they needed to do was to buy time, for Qi Ruisen to notice her absence and search for them.

And there was also Ruan Tianling waiting outside.

The banquet was nearly over; if she didn’t show up, Ruan Tianling would also come looking.

Just a little more time...

”Knock, knock—” At that moment, someone suddenly knocked on the door.

The door opened, and a bodyguard walked in.

”Eldest Young Master, we’ve searched inside and out, but we haven’t found the chip.”

”You haven’t found it?!” Qi Ruigang’s voice instantly dropped by several degrees.

The bodyguard lowered his head guiltily: ”Yes, we’ve conducted a thorough search... but found nothing.”

Qi Ruigang swiftly turned his gaze towards Mo Lan—

That malevolent look, like a sharp knife, seemed as if it would tear her to pieces!

Jian Yufei watched, trembling with fear: ”Maybe you did find it, but someone concealed it.”

”We haven’t!” The bodyguard’s face changed suddenly, ”Eldest Young Master, we truly haven’t, don’t listen to her nonsense!”

Qi Ruigang’s terrifying gaze shifted from Mo Lan onto her.

Jian Yufei mustered her courage and said: ”You have committed many evils; there are plenty who wish for your demise. Your men must have long withstood your torment, and surely there are those among them who wish you were dead. Now they understand the importance of the chip, someone must have hidden it, waiting for a chance to deal with you.”

Mo Lan was suddenly jolted.

Qi Ruigang was inherently suspicious, a little rustle of leaves would spur his doubt.

What folly she had committed just now, hell-bent on death, she had completely forgotten to use this tactic against him.

”Haha, Qi Ruigang, who would have thought your own people want you dead. Indeed, I did throw away the chip, but if they had really searched thoroughly, how could they not have found it. Haha, even if you kill us today, you will still die. Because someone will take us up on dealing with you!”

Mo Lan’s laugh was harrowing, her state even more likely to make Qi Ruigang believe her words.

But he wouldn’t fully trust her.

In his life, he had never trusted anyone.

Qi Ruigang slightly turned his head, his sinister gaze turning towards the reporting bodyguard...

”Eldest Young Master, I am utterly loyal to you, I would never dare harbor any disloyal thoughts!” The bodyguard, frightened, knelt on one knee, hastily declaring his loyalty.
