The Rebirth of the Fierce Little Cute Girl

Chapter 257: Chapter 256: Standing Up for Justice

Li Xue’er felt a pain that pierced her heart and screamed in agony with a hoarse voice.

Her eyes were full of hatred, wishing she could devour Mo Yiyi alive.

Yiyi completely ignored Li Xue’er. If it weren’t for the Xie Yuanzhou brothers this time, her mother might have been harmed. Just thinking about it made her wish she could tear apart everyone involved in the kidnapping of her mother. For now, she only crippled Li Xue’er because keeping her alive had its uses.

Seeing Yiyi’s icy demeanor, Pei Jin couldn’t help but nod in approval.

Originally, he worried that the young master, being just a young girl, might lack decisiveness. But after seeing how she handled matters today, he was reassured. Although the Yin sect was now back under the control of the Sect Leader, there’s no telling when chaos might arise again. Thus, the Sect Leader and the young master must act decisively and ruthlessly to keep the unloyal ones in check.

”Mo Ping, I’ll head back now. Keep a close eye on this woman.”

Now that Yiyi knew of Shu Qiang’s existence, she naturally needed to investigate thoroughly.

Hearing this, Pei Jin immediately left with Yiyi. Soon after, he suggested from the side, ”Young Master, I will properly investigate that Shu Qiang. But should we send someone to protect your mother? I’m afraid there could be another accident, which would be bad.” After this incident, he fully trusted Yiyi and thus considered everything thoroughly.

Upon hearing Pei Jin, Yiyi looked at him and asked, ”Send someone to protect her?”

”Yes, I’ll notify the Yin sect to send people to protect your mother. That way, we can feel more at ease.”

Yiyi pondered for a moment after hearing this, then nodded and said, ”Then I’ll trouble you. My mother does indeed need protection.” After all, the Xie Family wasn’t as close to her as the people from the Yin sect, so she preferred to rely on them.

Upon hearing Yiyi’s words, Pei Jin immediately said, ”It’s only right to solve problems for the young master. You don’t need to be so polite.”

Yiyi didn’t say much more but remembered his kindness in her heart.

Pei Jin acted quickly. Within a couple of days, he had brought Shu Qiang directly.

When Yiyi heard the news, she immediately rushed over to Guo Ming’s place.

”Yiyi, you’re right on time. This man is the culprit who organized your mother’s kidnapping. Even if he’s from the Shu Family, it doesn’t matter. We should still vent our anger.”

Hearing Guo Ming’s words, Yiyi said, ”Thank you, master.”

”No need for formalities between us as master and apprentice.” Guo Ming waved his hand and then had Yiyi come up to interrogate Shu Qiang, ”Since we have him now, you should ask him about his motives.”

”Alright.”

Yiyi walked up to Shu Qiang and, looking at the thin and small man before her, asked in a low voice, ”Did you send people to capture my mother?” Shu Qiang, ever since being captured, had been entirely uncooperative. Upon seeing Yiyi, he even spat at her, ”Let me tell you, kidnapping is illegal. I advise you to release me quickly so that I won’t hold you accountable. If you keep persisting, don’t blame me for not warning you when you land in jail.”

Seeing Shu Qiang like this, Yiyi sneered, ”Tough talk, let’s see how long you can keep it up.”

As she spoke, Yiyi glanced at Mo Ping, ”Bring that woman out.”

Without a word, Mo Ping brought Li Xue’er out.

When Li Xue’er saw Shu Qiang, tears started to flow uncontrollably, ”Brother Qiang, catch that bitch Mo Yiyi quickly. I want her torn to pieces. I want her dead!”

Seeing Li Xue’er’s hysterical state, Shu Qiang couldn’t help but frown.

Originally, he got involved with this woman because of her looks and figure, plus the flavor of a mature woman was indeed nice. She was particularly uninhibited, so he didn’t mind giving her some benefits, allowing this rural woman to live a wealthy urban life. But seeing Li Xue’er now, she seemed like a madwoman.

But soon, Shu Qiang noticed something off about Li Xue’er.

”What’s... what’s happened to you?”

Li Xue’er looked at Yiyi with hatred on her face, ”This bitch broke my hands and feet. She’s not human.”

Only then did Shu Qiang look directly at Yiyi in shock.

If it was indeed this young girl in front of him who crippled Li Xue’er, it was terrifying. How old was she? From the information he got earlier, she had just entered college, yet she harbored such venomous intent. What wouldn’t she dare to do? Suddenly, Shu Qiang’s previously firm heart wavered. Could he still walk out from here unscathed?

Noticing Shu Qiang’s changing expression, Yiyi nodded and finally asked him, ”Why did you want to capture my mother?”

As the question sank in, Shu Qiang slowly came back to his senses and felt regretful. He had been intimidated by a young girl. Raising his chin again, he snorted coldly, ”I captured her just because I wanted to. Why bother with reasons?”

”If you don’t want to end up like Li Xue’er, you’d better behave.”

Yiyi was in no mood to go back and forth with Shu Qiang; she just wanted to eliminate any factors threatening her mother.

However, Shu Qiang wasn’t cooperating at all, turning his head and ignoring Yiyi altogether.

Seeing Shu Qiang like that, Pei Jin coldly suggested from the side, ”Young Master, why not give him a medicine pill as well? It’ll save us from going back and forth, and he’ll confess everything.”

Yiyi realized she was overthinking, so she immediately took out a medicine pill, unhinged Shu Qiang’s jaw, and fed it to him.

After that, everything went much smoother. Though Shu Qiang was tough, he couldn’t withstand the excruciating pain and confessed everything.

”I’ll tell you... I’ll tell you, I just wanted to stand up for my niece. Clearly, she’s from a good family and beautiful, but... Gu Tingyu didn’t want her and chose you. So... in a moment of anger, I wanted revenge, which led me to capture your mother.”

Yiyi furrowed her brows.

”Just because of that?”

Shu Qiang rolled on the ground in pain, drenched in cold sweat, ”Yes, just... just because of that, and... Li Xue’er was egging me on. I... I acted foolishly and did it.”

Guo Ming, although he had heard about the medicine pill from Pei Jin earlier, was still surprised by its effects seeing Shu Qiang’s agony. Yet, seeing Shu Qiang confess, he nodded, his little apprentice really was impressive, handling all kinds of things smoothly.

Yiyi then asked, ”Did Shu Yunfang instruct you to do this?”

”No... it wasn’t Yunfang’s idea. Everything was my own doing. I’ve watched Yunfang grow up from a young age and couldn’t bear to see her suffer, so... I wanted to stand up for her.”
