Chapter 136: Why Ask since You already Knew (2)
Translator: Guy Gone Bad
“She says she is investigating a case and needs your cooperation.
“Why needs my cooperation?”
“That’s the chief’s order.”
Bang! Yan Qiushuang pounded the desk furiously.
Rong Yi then had to ask, “Mom, who is this Head Shui?”
Yan Qiushuang said angrily, “When I gave birth to you, it was her who sent someone to assassinate me.”
“Why did she try to kill you?”
“She wanted to seize the position from me, so she tried to kill me taking advantage that i was too weak after giving birth to you.” Recalling it, Yan Qiushuang felt bith angry and mad, “I was too naive at the time. I thought that after having your father’s kid, he would stay and change his attitude towards me. Even he still didn’t like me, at least he would be different to me. So I secretly went to see him myself, but got ambushed by Shui Zhuhuan on the way.”
Rong Yi then asked, “Why is she only a head now?”
“The master of Maiting Chamber is my mother. Actually she wanted me to take the position. After i got mission, she asked someone else to take the position as the deputy leader and Shui Zhuhuan as a head of a branch. So Shui Zhuhuan has held the grudge against me since then. She’d try every mean to make trouble for me.” Speaking of which, Yan Qiushuan said to Rong Yi with a cold tone through ventriloquism, “Actually my mother also had her own selfish motive asking me to be the deputy leader. When i was pregnant with you, she had fortune-telling which showed that the baby in my belly was a girl that possessed the extreme yin body. So she planned to refine you into a woman that could control all men in the world through her charming furnace. Pity that you are a boy, and I gave birth outside, so i lied to her that you were born at the yin hour of the yin day in the yin month, thus you escaped from her evil plan. That’s also why I didn’t try to get you back after your father sent you to Nine Void Sect, because you were much safer there. For me, since I am my mother’s blood, so she asked the leader of Ximo Hall to let me manage Departure Realm.”
Charming Furnace…
On thinking that he might have got laid by hundreds of men, Rong Yi got goose bumps all over. He should cultivate hard when he got back.
Yin Jinye saw him shaking, asking, “What is it?”
Rong Yi shook his head, asking Yan Qiushuang, “Do we need to avoid her?”
“You are my son. Why should you avoid her? Hum!” Yan Qiushuang then said to Liao Yuan, “Let her in.”
“Yes.”
Liao Yuan then invited Shui Zhuhuan in.
On seeing that Shui Zhuhuan wearing heavy makeup with a bunch of people following, looking rather cocky, Rong Yi immediately grew hatred against her.
Shui Zhuhuan laughed dirtily while walking in, “Chatelaine Yan, sorry to disturb your breakfast. But the chief has the order asking you to cooperate with me to search the thief.”
Yan Qiushuang neither stood up to welcome her nor invited her to sit, “What thief?”
“Our ancestors’ tombs got dug by someone and lost a lot of burial objects. The chief of Ximo Hall ordered all chatelains to ferret out who the thief is.”
Rong Yi, “…”
So except taking the Spring Hell Flower, Yin Jinye also stole the burial things?
Yan Qiushuang was stunned, “Our ancestors’ tombs got robbed? Who is so bold?”
Shui Zhuhuan sneered, “Do I need to ask your cooperation if I know?”
“When did this happen?”
“About two days ago.”
Yan Qiushuang frowned, “You don’t even know who it is. How? Besides, it’s also a few days. You don’t even know where those people have gone to.”
“We just do as what the chief told us to do. Why are you talking so much nonsense? If things are delayed, you explain to the chief yourself.”
Yan Qiushuang just hated to see her arrogant face. She always used the chief to threaten her, like she was the boss here.
“Liao Yuan, send some people to search with Head Shui.”
“Yes.”
Shui Zhuhuan curled up her lips satisfactorily. Then he saw Rong Yi and Yin Jinye who were sitting next to Yan Qiushuang, stunned, “Who are they?”
Yan Qiushuang said with a deep tone, “Shui Zhuhuan, you are in my place now. Pay attention to your tone. Don’t act like you are interrogating prisoners.”
Shui Zhuhuan sneered, “I am here to search under the chief’s order. I see strangers, of course I should stay alert. Who knows whether it is them or not?”
“You mean I am hiding the criminals?”
“I didn’t say that. You said it yourself.” Shui Zhuhuan looked at Rong Yi, Though he was obviously a man, he looked too womanly, apparently now her type. She then turned to Yin Jinye. This man was her type, whether his body or his face. It’d be great if she could sleep with him, “Say it. Who are they? Or I’ll detain them back to investigate.”
