Chapter 39: Chapter 39. Uncle, wait a minute
Author: The first love of a rainy dayMachine Translation
Qiu Hui took a deep breath, as if she was ready to die heroically. "Even if you are a lady and I can't afford to offend you, I have to tell the truth. It was you who bullied Miss Yunting. You ran to see young master Ha Siqi, and when you came back, Miss Yunting asked you a question and you hit her!
"You seduced your cousin's fiancé and hit her. If you didn't bully Miss Yunting, then why has she still got a red mark on her face? I just couldn't stand it anymore and wanted to take revenge on you. How could the Qin family have such a shameless miss like you?"
As expected, she needed to take a deep breath. Otherwise, she wouldn't have been able to finish her sentence!
The corner of Qin Sheng's lips twitched "When I hit my cousin, you guys said that I was jealous that Li Ang liked my cousin. Are you serious about that? I've seduced Ha Siqi and come back to hit my cousin? Bah! I wonder what other excuses you can use against me next time?"
Qin Sheng looked around the room, glancing at all the women. Indeed, life was like a play. It was all determined on acting skills. You had good acting skills, you got far. You had poor acting skills, you failed. Why couldn't they all just die!
Qiu Hui choked and almost couldn't speak. When her words came out, her voice was trembling. "You... you seduced young master Ha Siqi and were jealous that Duke Li Ang liked Miss Yunting! That's why you hit Miss Yunting! I'm telling the truth!"
If Qin Sheng didn't laugh, she would've cried. How far from the truth all that was. If only they knew that she was almost raped by Ha Siqi, and she detested the Duke with all her heart.
"Then, do I want Ha Siqi or Li Ang? Do you think I have as much free time as my cousin that I can go for two men?" she said coldly.
"You... you..." Qiu Hui really didn't know what to say.
Qin Ze Patted the armrest of the sofa. "You crafty servant! Framing the master! How can there be such a servant in this house?"
"Our house is fine, but all the gossip was spread by this servant. It almost caused a misunderstanding between the two Miss Qins! Sister Yu, settle her wages." He Fen understood the old man's expression instantly. Without waiting for the old man to speak, she settled the matter. Otherwise, when the old man spoke, she did not know what kind of heavy punishment there would be.
Qiu Hui was stunned. She did not expect to be fired. In a flash, she realised what that meant for her future. She knelt down and crawled to Qin Yunting's feet. "Miss, I don't want to leave! Please let me stay! I'm doing this for Miss..."
However, before she could finish her words, Sister Yu covered Qiu Hui's mouth with a handkerchief from behind. She asked two maids for help and dragged Qiu Hui out without uttering a word.
"Alright, alright. The misunderstanding has finally been settled. I didn't expect it to be caused by a maid. I wonder if Madam is satisfied with our punishment? If you are, feel free to let us know. However, if you're not, you can punish her too," Zheng Min said to Roland in an gracious manner.
"I say cut off her tongue. That way, she won't spread rumors everywhere!" Li Ang said evilly.
Zheng Min was shocked. "C-cut out her tongue?"
Her face twitched. If Qiu Hui's tongue was really cut out, the girl could go crazy and might tell the authorities what they had done. Then they would be in big trouble!
"Why can't I cut it out? She burned me. I consider that letting her off easy!" Li Ang said.
Roland looked at his son "That's true. She just hurt my Lord, so it's kind of him to spare her life. She doesn't need a tongue. We are still guests here, so you can't disappoint us! If you deal with it this way, we will have no objections..."
Before Roland could finish speaking, the sound of a woman screaming echoed from outside the living room. The woman was crying so loudly.
"Go and see what's going on!" He Fen ordered the maid beside her.
"I asked Nie Feng to break one of her legs," Gong Mochen said casually.
Suddenly, the room became quiet. Even the sound of breathing was abrupt and loud. The words "cold man" pierced everyone's thoughts.
Qin Yunting's face was tense. She did not dare to look at Gong Mochen. Qiu Hui only pricked Qin Sheng once and her leg was broken... What would happen to her if they knew she was the one who had set the whole thing up?
Qin Yunting didn't dare to think about it. They were both Gong Mochen's nieces, but Gong Mochen only cared about Qin Sheng, not her.
Li Ang looked at Gong Mochen, the corners of his lips curling up into a sinister smile. Gong Mochen actually breaking a woman's leg for him. Wow... This was an interesting development.
"Break one leg or two?" he said coldly. He'd take advantage of this situation...
"One leg," Nie Feng, who had just walked in, replied.
"Break her other leg for me too!" Li Ang ordered.
Nie Feng looked at his master, not knowing how to react. After all, Li Ang was not his master.
Gong Mochen raised his hand. "Since the Duke wants another leg, I'll give it to him."
Nie Feng accepted the order. "Yes, Master."
Soon, another piercing scream ruptured the living room.
Zheng Min couldn't take it in anymore. She was afraid that Qiu Hui might say something that would implicate her daughter.
"Mother, I'll go take a look," she said to her mother-in-law, and got up to leave the room.
"Sit down! You're too soft-hearted, that's why you were taken advantage of by the servants. Tomorrow, I'll personally choose a new maid for Yuntung. I can't let Yunting be taken advantage of anymore," He Fen said, stopping Zheng Min from leaving the room.
Qin Sheng rolled her eyes. Qiu Hui did everything for Qin Yunting, and she'd been thrown away like dirt. However, without Qin Yunting's encouragement, would Qiu Hui have really dared to do what she'd done? She suspected Qin Yunting had more to do with this.
After hearing what He Fen said, it seemed that Qin Yunting was the victim and no one else!
"Since her legs are now broken, let's send her to the hospital. It wouldn't be good if she was to die of shock," Qin Ze said in a deep voice.
"Yes. Nie Feng will be sent to the hospital with her," Gong Mochen replied.
Qin Ze nodded. "I'm always at ease when you do things, Mochen." He yawned. "It's getting late now, and Duke Li Ang is still injured. You should retire to your room to rest, Duke."
"Yes, I'll go to my room to recuperate. I'll take my leave then." Li Ang stood up and walked out of the living room.
Roland stood up and took her leave next. Zheng Min tried to persuade her to stay at their mansion, but she didn't succeed. Roland went back to her own villa, but before she left, she had a few words with Zheng Min.
Qin Sheng stood and stretched, then followed her uncle back to his bedroom.
Before they reached Gong Mochen's room, Gong Mochen pushed open the door of Qin Sheng's bedroom and pushed the girl in. He then closed the door. Though the girl hadn't spoken, he could tell from her small eyes that she wanted to stay in his room again.
However, just as he went back to his room to take a shower and lie down, he heard Qin Sheng knocking on the door.
"Uncle, my arm hurts. I don't know if there was something wrong with that needle Qiu Hui stabbed me with."
"I checked you over just now. There was no wound on your arm." Gong Mochen was determined not to be fooled.
"Uncle, I'm scared. I might be attacked by a ghost! Qiu Hui's spirit might get me!" Qin Sheng shouted again.
"Qiu Hui isn't dead. She hasn't become a ghost." Gong Mochen shook his head helplessly.
Suddenly, there was no girl's voice outside his room. Instead, Li Ang's voice could be heard faintly in the corridor. Gong Mochen abruptly got up and opened the door.
"Qin Sheng, come here!"
Li Ang grabbed Qin Sheng's arm and pulled her to him. "You can't run! Have you forgotten what I just said?"
Qin Sheng turned to Gong Mochen. "Uncle, wait for a moment."
She silently went into Li Ang's room...
