Chapter 529: Her Schemes Fell Through
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Murong Xi wanted to find another chance to talk to Qin Hao and show her face in front of him so that Qin Hao would remember her.
Hence, she ignored the fact that Huo Siyu was also present and came over.
Besides, she had already asked around and found out Yan Jinyu’s ident.i.ty. She was very shocked to find out that Yan Jinyu was Yin Jiujin’s fiancée.
Knowing that Yan Jinyu was someone she couldn’t afford to offend, be it now or in the past, she was prepared to come over and make a good impression in front of her.
She didn’t expect to hear Qin Hao say such words.
She knew that there were many surveillance cameras in a villa like Qin Xuan’s house, but she was not worried that the surveillance cameras would capture her talking to Murong Huan.
She and Murong Huan were sisters. It was only normal for her to say a few words to Murong Huan after she was taught a lesson for offending someone.
As for her and Qin Hao, she couldn’t wait to be seen and misunderstood by others.
She had never expected that the people who saw the video would know to read lips!
No! It wasn’t just reading lips. Yan Jinyu could actually use a phone to hack into the surveillance cameras here in such a short time and even direct the video over!
With such ability, she was definitely not a country b.u.mpkin who grew up in a rural orphanage like the rumors said!
Yan Jinyu was indeed not a country b.u.mpkin. After discovering Yan Jinyu’s ident.i.ty, she specially investigated her.
North City’s top student for the college entrance examination!
How could such a person be a country b.u.mpkin?
Although she didn’t know Yan Jinyu well enough, the information she found about Yan Jinyu was enough to prove that Yan Jinyu wasn’t simple.
Then, it didn’t seem strange that she had extraordinary hacking skills and knew how to lip read.
However, the premise was that this person was not someone who had just turned 19 and disappeared for many years and grew up in an orphanage in a rural town.
Yan Jinyu was too unusual.
Just as she was still shocked by Yan Jinyu, she heard Qin Hao’s words.
Give the Jones Family a hand!
That was to quickly push the Bruce Family to destruction!
She did not care much about the Bruce Family. After all, the Bruce Family’s outcome was already decided. Otherwise, she would not have thought of ways to leave Country Y.
She was fl.u.s.tered because Qin Hao had seen her true colors!
How could that be!
No, no, no. Perhaps not. Even if they could lip-read and could tell what she and Murong Huan were saying, they might not be able to tell what she was planning.
When she spoke to Murong Huan, she didn’t say things too clearly so that Murong Huan would trust her.
She hid her emotions and thoughts very well too.
Qin Hao might not be able to tell!
A sharp glint flashed past her eyes. She clenched her fists and made up her mind!
She did not retreat. She adjusted her emotions and walked towards them.
She didn’t greet Qin Hao or the others first. Instead, she walked straight to Yan Jinyu.
When she walked over, the three people watching the video also looked up at her.
They wanted to see what she wanted to do.
Just as they were feeling puzzled, they saw her smile politely at Yan Jinyu, “I didn’t know you are Eldest Miss Yan. I only found out after asking someone. If I’ve offended Eldest Miss Yan in any way outside just now, I hope you don’t take it to heart.”
“Since Eldest Miss Yan is Master Nine’s fiancée, the current situation of the Bruce Family naturally can’t be hidden from you. You’re right. The Bruce Family is already an arrow at the end of its flight. It can’t afford to be your enemy, and it doesn’t dare to offend you either. That’s why I reprimanded my sister so rudely when she spoke rudely to Miss Huo.”
“It’s not my wish to hide the actual situation of our Bruce Family either.”
As Murong Xi spoke, her smile was bitter. “If I still stay in the Bruce Family now, I’ll die at the hands of the Jones Family even if I’m not killed by my siblings.”
“I have returned to the country with my sister. My parents and brothers weren’t by my side. I might have to rely on my relatives to survive in the future. I was afraid that others would look down on me if I no longer had the Bruce Family as my backer, so…”
“Please forgive me, Eldest Miss Yan.”
Her smile was forced and bitter, making her look even more delicate. In addition, Murong Xi didn’t look bad either. If it were anyone else, they would probably feel pity for her.
Unfortunately, she had met Yan Jinyu and the others.
Of course, Yan Jinyu, Huo Siyu, and Qin Hao wouldn’t care. Qin Xuan and Chu Xiaohuan weren’t people who would poke their nose into other people’s business, so they didn’t have any extra sympathy for her either.
As for Zhao Linlin, she was very rational. She knew her background and her goal. She wouldn’t find trouble for herself for a stranger.
Of course, this was not because human nature was cold. It mainly depended on who the person was.
Murong Xi was obviously hypocritical and they weren’t stupid.
“You really shouldn’t have said that to me. To be honest, if you didn’t appear, I wouldn’t have known who you were at all. If you didn’t come to find trouble, do you think I would have the mood to care if you’re hypocritical or sincere? Or if you are dead or alive?”
Yan Jinyu didn’t hold back at all.
There was no need to show mercy either.
“My patience isn’t very good. Don’t make your presence known in front of me. Otherwise, I really don’t know if I’ll find you annoying and just…”
She chuckled and made a throat-slitting action.
Murong Xi was shocked.
A chill spread throughout her body.
Although Yan Jinyu had a smile on her face, her eyes were cold.
She was not joking!
“I’m sorry. I was rude. I just wanted to express my apology. I hope Eldest Miss Yan can forgive my sister’s rudeness.”
Looking at the amused Huo Siyu, Murong Xi tried her best to maintain her expression for a second. She felt that Huo Siyu had treated her actions as a joke!
“I’m also saying this to Miss Huo. My sister has indeed gone overboard. Although I’ve already apologized to Miss Huo for this, I still feel that apologizing in front of Young Master Qin seems more sincere.”
She looked at Qin Hao carefully. Her heart beat faster uncontrollably and her face turned red when she saw Qin Hao’s outstanding face.
Qin Hao frowned.
“I apologize for my sister’s rudeness and carelessness. I hope Young Master Qin can let the Bruce Family off. Although my family’s at its end, it’s still my family. I hope that she can survive for even one more day.”
“The Bruce Family is in chaos and the Jones Family is getting stronger. The Bruce Family can’t last long. Young Master Qin, you don’t have to waste your effort to help the Jones Family.”
However, they only smiled at her without saying a word.
It was as if she was singing a one-man show. She was an entertainer while they were the audience.
Murong Xi felt extremely humiliated.
However, she still endured it.
She bit her lip as if she was struggling. Then, she knelt down with a plop. “Young Master Qin, just take it that I’m begging you! My parents are still in the Bruce Family. Although they’re destined to live and die with the Bruce Family, I really don’t want them to die so early…”
“I also beg Miss Huo and Miss Yan. My sister has been spoiled by my family and doesn’t know how to speak. I beg you to forgive her this time and not let our family pay for her mistake.”
“The Jones Family is enough to deal with the Bruce Family. Young Master Qin doesn’t have to spend any effort at all.”
“I-If you really want to vent your anger, I’m willing to let you vent on my sister’s behalf. I won’t have any complaints if you want to beat or scold me…”
When Murong Huan, who was hiding in the corner, saw her kneel and heard her words, she ran out and said angrily, “Sister, why are you begging them? You have never knelt to anyone since you were young. Hurry up and get up!”
“Young Master Qin, I like you. What’s wrong with that? Do you have to be so ruthless?”
“It’s true that Huo Siyu is engaged to you, but she was abducted by someone when she was young. I don’t know who raised her, but how can she compare to me, the daughter of the number one family in Country Y? I’m more suitable for you than her!”
“Besides, you’re someone I’ve decided on since I was young. What right does Huo Siyu have to fight with me? She’s not worthy…”
The last sentence was stuck in her throat.
Qin Hao raised his hand and pointed the exquisite black revolver at her head.
“More suitable for me than Rainy?” Qin Hao’s gaze was cold. When his gaze landed on Murong Huan, it made her feel a bone-piercing chill.
“You’re quite shameless!”
“What gave you the wrong impression that I’m an easy person to talk to?”
Zhao Linlin was already scared silly.
Gun!
In today’s society, who could carry such a lethal weapon?
Not only that, he even dared to take it out so openly and press it against someone else’s head!
He dared to shoot and indeed wanted to kill Murong Huan. Zhao Linlin could sense it.
Murong Huan was so frightened that her legs went limp. “Y-you don’t dare to shoot! Stop scaring me! I’m the daughter of the Bruce Family’s main family. You don’t dare…”
“Are you sure?”
Seeing that his finger was about to pull the trigger, Murong Huan rolled her eyes and fainted from shock.
“…” Huo Siyu. The daughter of the Bruce Family, was that all the guts she had?
Qin Hao obviously didn’t expect her to faint either. He had already decided to get rid of her on the spot. Anyway, it wasn’t like he couldn’t clean up the mess.
However, he disdained to kill her since she was so easily frightened.
Moreover, it was Qin Xuan’s birthday…
Qin Hao retracted his gun and turned to say to Qin Xuan, “Throw her out. In the future, don’t let any Tom, d.i.c.k or Harry come into the Qin Family so easily.”
Qin Chongwen was no longer in charge. Qin Hao had the most say in the Qin Family now. He was completely qualified to say this in the side branch of the Qin Family.
“Yes.”
Not to mention that Qin Hao was furious, just based on how Murong Huan spoke to Qin Hao just now, Qin Xuan couldn’t tolerate her either.
She could still tolerate Murong Huan being rude to Huo Siyu. After all, even if Huo Siyu was engaged to Qin Hao, she was still not married into the Qin Family and could not represent the Qin Family.
Qin Hao was different.
Qin Hao was the heaven of the Qin Family. If someone dared to offend Qin Hao’s dignity, they would be offending the dignity of the Qin Family. They were simply looking down on the Qin Family!
How could she tolerate that?
Hence, she answered very seriously.
She waved for the butler. “Get the bodyguards to throw them out!”
Qin Hao was present and Qin Xuan was serious, so the butler didn’t dare to ask further.
The birthday party had invited many guests. In order to prevent anyone from causing trouble and not be able to stop them in time, the bodyguards stood in the corner.
With the butler’s signal, two bodyguards came over.
“Throw them out,” the butler instructed.
“Yes!”
It was less than a minute.
Before Murong Xi could recover from the shock that Qin Hao actually wanted to chase her out too, she was already grabbed by the bodyguards and dragged out.
