The General's Little Peasant Wife

Chapter 183: Not Giving Up

Translator: Vesper

Ning Meng Yao looked at Lin Zi You for a long while. Feeling her eyes on him made his hair stand: “Sister-in-law, please don’t give me that look. It’s really scary.”

“Do I look scary?” Ning Meng Yao asked innocently.

“No, not at all. You look very beautiful.” But your gaze is very scary. You obviously have some plans, you don’t have to be that obvious.

Qiao Tian Chang sat by her side and quietly watched her tease Lin Zi You. It was quite interesting.

Although there were so many people around in the house, Ning Meng Yao didn’t have much that needed their help. She just had to do her and Qiao Tian Chang’s wedding clothes. As for the quilt pillows and stuff, Qing Zhu had taken care of them. Lin Zi You and the others could help with other minor things, and therefore, both Qiao Tian Chang and Ning Meng Yao relaxed a lot.

At night, Xiao Qi Tian and the rest, who were asleep, suddenly opened their eyes. Their eyes were as cold as stone.

Getting up from bed and putting on their clothes, they dashed out and spotted Qiao Tian Chang who was also up at that time: “Tian Chang...”

“Don’t leave a single one, we’ll send all of them back to whoever sent them.” Qiao Tian Chang’s eyes were bloodthirsty.

This wasn’t the first time. It seemed that woman really wasn’t giving up. Now, she even dared to make another attempt to murder Yao Yao.

Ning Meng Yao heard the noise outside and woke up. Upon seeing a fight outside, her face became pale.

“Yao Yao, stay in the house, don’t come out.” Seeing Ning Meng Yao had woken up and was standing in front of the window in her thin nightgown, and her face was pale as sheet, Qiao Tian Chang quickly shouted. He didn’t want her to get involved.

Ning Meng Yao nodded obediently. Seeing this made her furious. It seemed that Xiao Zi Xuan really didn’t want to live anymore.

Lei An’s skills were very good so naturally, he had no problem dealing with the assassins.

Once all the assassins were dealt with, Xiao Qi Tian unveiled the veil of the leader. Seeing the familiar face, he sneered: “If they don’t give me an explanation this time, I’ll not rest.” They knew he was here, yet they even dare to send people to assassinate. Very well, since they didn’t put him in their eyes, then he was going to give them a lesson.

“Lei An, call a few people to carry these bodies and follow me.” Xiao Qi Tian wasn’t a master of patience. Since they dared to do assassinate them, he was going to give them a stern and deathly lesson.

Ning Meng Yao initially still thought about how to deal with this matter. But who knew that Xiao Qi Tian had already helped her to solve it.

Watching the men carry the bodies away on their horses, her gaze deepened.

Walking towards Ning Meng Yao, reaching out to hug her, Qiao Tian Chang felt the chill on her body, he couldn’t help but frown: “Why don’t you put on more clothes?”

“I’m fine.” Ning Meng Yao shook her head and leaned in his arms.

“Don’t worry, this matter will be handled properly.” Qiao Tian Chang thought she was worried about the matter, so he comforted her.

“I believe he will handle it well.” How could Ning Meng Yao not believe in Xiao Qi Tian? This wasn’t a simple assassination case, but more importantly, it made Xiao Qi Tian feel provoked.

Knowing he was here, they dared to take action. They were basically looking down on his existence, so he would definitely handle this matter promptly, no matter what.

Xiao Qi Tian took Lei An and the rest back to the capital quickly. They didn’t return to the palace but went directly to the residence which sent the assassins.

At the entrance, Xiao Qi Tian was blocked. Seeing the guards blocking him, Xiao Qi Tian’s expression turned even uglier.

He had a respectable status, who dared to block his way? It was a humiliation to be blocked by a bunch of peasants.

“Who dares to stop me, kill them.” Xiao Qi Tian said murderously.

“Yes.”

“Who are you? How daring you to barge into the residence.” The butler ran out and yelled.

However, after seeing the person in front, his expression changed and he quickly fell to the ground: “Your Royal Highness, Prince Qi.” My goodness, who invited him here?

“Call Marquis Ling, that old bag to come out this instant.” Xiao Qi Tian was getting angrier at this moment. He didn’t have any good to say, especially at the sight of those who blocked him.

The old butler’s expression was bitter. He could only pray that things wouldn’t get too serious.
