Mother Wang was puzzled at first. Why did Lin Ruoxi's gentle temperament suddenly become so cold? Then, she glanced at Yang Cheng, who had a confused look on his face, and a flash of understanding flashed in her eyes.
Sighing slightly in her heart, Mother Wang found that she was already used to this kind of thing. This son-in-law of hers could be said to be loved and hated at the same time. She only hoped that this time it would not be too serious.
Walking into the hall of the mansion, Hsiao Chih-ching was already leisurely sitting on the big leather mahogany sofa in the living room, leisurely crossing her fair and smooth legs, drinking tea.
Wearing a black knitted mohair top with a pair of hot black leather shorts, revealing her white arms, it was really sexy and seductive.
This posture, it seemed that she was the owner of this house.
Meanwhile, Yang Cheng and Lin Ruoxi had just returned home dejectedly. Lin Ruoxi's dress was dirty, and her hair was messy, it really did not look good.
Hearing the sound of people, Hsiao Chih-ching put down the teacup and turned her head. Seeing the appearance of the two, the woman slightly opened her mouth, looking very surprised.
Lin Ruoxi did not care about her own image at all. Her pretty face was like a thousand-year-old ice jade sculpture, and the coldness in her beautiful eyes was enough to make Mother Wang, who was next to her, feel unbearable.
"Get lost."
Lin Ruoxi mercilessly said only one word, it was soft, but it was concise and deep.
The little smile that had just appeared on Hsiao Chih-ching's face instantly froze there.
Behind her, Yang Cheng raised his head and took a breath of cold air, it was better for him to pretend that he did not see or hear anything.
Flipping her beautiful hair, Hsiao Chih-ching chuckled and slowly stood up, walking forward, and asked with her head tilted, "Where did General Lin and his wife come back from? Why are they so embarrassed?"
"Get lost."
Hsiao Chih-ching's smile froze again. This time, it finally turned into bitterness. "Can't we talk properly? I came here today because I have a serious matter."
Lin Ruoxi turned around and said to Mother Wang, "Mother Wang, see them out."
"Ah?"
Mother Wang was a little confused, but at least she could understand.
"Miss Xiao." Mother Wang smiled embarrassedly. "Although I don't know what happened between you and our Miss, our Miss doesn't want to talk to you at all. You should leave. I'll send you off."
Hsiao Chih-ching looked at Yang Cheng behind Lin Ruoxi with resentment.
Biting her thin lips, Hsiao Chih-ching asked, "Do you want to chase me away too?"
When Yang Cheng heard this, he thought, 'Isn't this woman trying to get me killed?'
"Why are you asking me? I've helped you detoxify the poison and gave you money. I didn't even kill you for ruining our relationship as husband and wife. I've done my best. What else do you want? Besides, didn't I let you go the other day? "Yang Cheng said gloomily.
Lin Ruoxi asked doubtfully, "Detoxify? What do you mean? "
Yang Cheng did not hide anything. He told them about how he had helped Hsiao Chih-ching expel the poison from her body.
Although Lin Ruoxi knew that this fellow was hiding something, she did not pursue the matter. She nodded and said, "Since that's the case, you should be grateful and not destroy other people's families to achieve your own goals."
"You're right." Hsiao Chih-ching suddenly agreed. Her delicate face was filled with guilt.
"I actually came here today to apologize to you."
With that, Hsiao Chih-ching suddenly knelt on the ground!
This time, not only Mother Wang, but Lin Ruoxi and Yang Cheng were also surprised. They stood there in a daze, not knowing how to let her go.
"I was wrong. I was blinded by revenge. I wanted to use my body to ruin your marriage. I only realized now that I'm a vicious woman.
Miss Lin, please forgive me for my recklessness. But I really need to live now. I don't want to die suddenly. If you don't help me, no one can save me … "
As she spoke, Hsiao Chih-ching's eyes were filled with tears. She was born seductive. Now that she was crying, she looked even more charming. Her whole body seemed to melt on the ground.
Involuntarily, Mother Wang felt sorry for her. She quickly helped Hsiao Chih-ching up. "Oh, Miss Xiao, it's good that you're sincere. It's not the old society anymore. Why are you kneeling? Get up … "
Hsiao Chih-ching shook her head. "If Miss Lin doesn't forgive me, I'll keep kneeling like this today. I'll die sooner or later if I go out anyway. It might even be more painful than death. I'd rather kneel here."
The contrast between this woman's actions was too great. It made Yang Cheng's brain short-circuit.
As for Lin Ruoxi, she was cold on the outside but warm on the inside. Although she hated Hsiao Chih-ching for getting in the way and maliciously plotting against her, she still hated her for having a relationship with Yang Cheng.
But after all, she was apologizing so heartbroken and sounded so pitiful. She couldn't help but soften her heart.
"You said you want revenge? Someone wants to kill you? What do you mean? "Lin Ruoxi couldn't help but ask curiously.
Hsiao Chih-ching wiped her tears and choked with sobs. "I actually escaped … My family and my in-laws will find me sooner or later …"
"What!?"
This time, it was Mother Wang's turn to exclaim in surprise, "Miss Xiao, what are you saying? Who would want to kill their own family? Could it be that the person you want to take revenge on is your family? "
"They're not my family!!"
Hsiao Chih-ching's eyes were bloodshot. Her face was filled with anger and hatred. She raised her head and said, "I can't wait to peel off their skin and pull out their tendons!"
Seeing that Hsiao Chih-ching had lost control, Yang Cheng squinted his eyes. Based on his experience of reading people, this woman wasn't acting this time.
Thinking about the weird things that happened when he met Hsiao Chih-ching and the weird sloppy old Daoist today, Yang Cheng vaguely guessed something.
After making up his mind, Yang Cheng stepped forward and said, "You can get up."
Hsiao Chih-ching stopped crying. She raised her head blankly, "You … You've forgiven me?"
Yang Cheng said, "Tell me everything about your background and everything that happened."
Hsiao Chih-ching was stunned for a moment. She turned around and looked at Lin Ruoxi.
Lin Ruoxi looked at Yang Cheng with a complicated gaze. After a slight hesitation, she nodded at Hsiao Chih-ching and said, "If you don't play any tricks in the future, I'll forgive you this time."
Hsiao Chih-ching showed a faint smile as if a heavy burden had been lifted from her shoulders. "Thank you …"
"Aiya, you should've done this earlier. But Young Master, Miss, even if you want to talk, you have to take a bath and change your clothes first!" Mother Wang said with a smile.
Yang Cheng suddenly smiled evilly. He turned around and hugged Lin Ruoxi's slim waist. He whispered in her ear, "Wifey, let's take a bath together."
"Let go," Lin Ruoxi said softly.
Yang Cheng immediately lost his courage and obediently let go. It seemed that the woman was still a little unwilling to let Hsiao Chih-ching get up.
This was a strange mentality. She obviously wanted to let Hsiao Chih-ching get up, but she couldn't say it herself.
Lin Ruoxi immediately turned around and went upstairs. As she walked, she said, "Let's talk in my study. Mother Wang, help me prepare something to eat. I'm a little hungry."
Yang Cheng signaled to Mother Wang with his eyes. He naturally had to prepare more food. Then, he ran upstairs.
In the end, only Hsiao Chih-ching was left downstairs in a daze. She looked at the back view of the two people going upstairs.
"Why? Are you a little envious?" Mother Wang pursed her lips and smiled at Hsiao Chih-ching.
Hsiao Chih-ching looked at Mother Wang in surprise. Then, she smiled and nodded.
"Although they quarrel and fight, they've been married for more than a year after all. Their relationship is much deeper than that of an ordinary couple," Wang Ma sighed. "Miss Xiao, I'm not the person involved, so I can't say much. But I think you shouldn't have any ideas that are impossible. That will only hurt you." Xiao Luo sighed.
After that, Mother Wang went back to the kitchen to prepare food.
Hsiao Chih-ching stood downstairs in a daze. Her eyes flashed with a hint of sadness.
Half an hour later.
After washing up and changing into clean clothes, the two of them felt refreshed again. They called Hsiao Chih-ching to Lin Ruoxi's study.
If it was in the past, Lin Ruoxi wouldn't participate in these things that involved the unconventional society. But now that she was captured by a cultivator, she had to pay attention to it.
Lin Ruoxi's study was very spacious. There were a few red leather chairs carved with golden nanmu beside the colorful cashmere carpet. The three of them sat together.
After Mother Wang brought the pastries in, she left. She wasn't curious. She also felt that the content wasn't suitable for her to listen to.
"You can speak now. But don't exaggerate. I might know more than you do." Yang Cheng picked up a mung bean cake and stuffed it into his mouth.
Hsiao Chih-ching took a deep breath. She seemed to be trying hard to organize her thoughts. After that, she said, "I'm not sure if you've heard of the hidden family …"
