Chapter 4: Kill

  Qin furrowed his brow and casually picked up a sword that looked like it was in poor condition from the wall, holding it in his hand.

  Qin Han Yue knew who this person was, and the woman was none other than the wife of Dr. Wu, who had been beaten up earlier. She was a typical shrew, notorious in the entire Qin family's servant circle for being able to turn even the smallest matters into a huge fuss, making almost all the servants in the Qin household fear her.

  All along, the one who mocked Qin Li and her son the most was also her. Dr. Wu's thoughts about Qin Han Yue were clear to his wife, so although she didn't dare to be too overt, she would often make snide comments about him.

  Dr. Wu had already let his wife fix a meal at home, and with a dejected look, he followed behind his wife, while beside Dr. Wu stood a middle-aged man wearing a blue long gown, looking refined and elegant.

  This man is a manager of the Qin family, named Qin Yong, who has a certain status in the Qin family and was invited by Dr. Wu to specially calm down the scene. After all, Qin Han Yue was once the eldest lady of the Qin family, if she couldn't be suppressed on the grounds of reason, these people wouldn't dare to do anything to her mother and son for no reason.

  But with Qin Yong as a witness, it's different. If Qin Li dares to make another move, the one who will be provoking him is Qin Yong.

  Dr. Wu invited Qin Yong, who is a native son of the Qin family and has been in the Qin family for three generations. People like him are usually very trustworthy, although their status may not be high, they hold real power, much stronger than Qin Han Yue and her poor mother and son.

  However, facing the young lady who was once the most favored in the Qin family, Qin Yong also didn't want to go too far. He slightly disdained Wu's wife with a glance and said indifferently: "Qin Li, according to the laws of Qinglong Country, although you are not an adult, your actions were still wrong. Hurry up and kowtow to apologize to Doctor Wu, and this matter will be settled like that."

  Qin Yong's words were light and casual, but neither Dr. Wu nor Qin Li could accept this kind of reconciliation that was as thin as paste.

  "Kowtowing? Don't be ridiculous! My husband, Old Wu, was beaten for no reason and had two teeth knocked out. His chest still hurts to this day, who knows if his internal organs were injured. Director Qin, we asked you here because of your reputation for fairness, but if you're going to be like this, I won't accept it!" Madam Wu's sharp tongue left Qin speechless.

  Qin Yong furrowed his brow, if it weren't for the fact that Dr. Wu was usually quite obedient, and he also had some thoughts about Qin Han Yue, he wouldn't have come to stir up trouble today. But since he's already here, he raised an eyebrow and looked at Qin Li, who had a calm expression and no discernible emotions, saying: "Qin Li, what do you think?"

  Qin Li's face, still with a hint of childishness, suddenly broke into a smile. He didn't look at Wu Shi, who was muttering to himself, but instead beckoned to Dr. Wu and said with a smile: "Dr. Wu, come here."

  Dr. Wu had just been punched by Qin Li, losing two teeth. Although Qin Li looked harmless at the moment, who knew if this kid would go crazy again? Dr. Wu shook his head like a rattle drum: "Kid, say what you want to say!"

  Dr. Wu wanted to put on a show, but after losing two front teeth, his speech was full of air leaks, and many people who came to watch couldn't help but burst out laughing.

  Wu's wife slapped the back of her husband's head and scolded: "You're useless!" She puffed out her chest, walked up to Qin Li, and glared at him with her triangular eyes: "I'm here now, you dog bastard, wild seed! What can you do to me?"

  "Slap!" Qin Li slapped Wu Shi's face with a loud and crisp sound.

  What sends shivers down one's spine is that from start to finish, Qin Li's slightly immature face has always been hanging with a faint smile. Many of the Qin family servants who are familiar with Qin Li feel that after his serious illness, this illegitimate son of the Qin family, whom no one could look at before, seems to have changed.

  Wu's mouth was slightly open, and she stood there in a daze. She couldn't have imagined that Qin Li would dare to hit her in front of everyone, but what she couldn't imagine even more was still yet to come.

  "Hmph..."

  Qin Li drew out the broken sword in his hand, and there was not a single glimmer of light on it. This should have been a ridiculous and laughable scene, but none of the onlookers dared to make a sound!

  At the slightest disagreement, they drew their swords against each other. The opponent was that unremarkable little wild species from the Qin family. People were shocked and stunned, especially Qin Yong and Wu Yishi, who were pulled over to mediate, stood there like wooden puppets, almost losing their ability to think.

  There was only one thought in his mind: how dare he draw his sword?

  Qin Li held the rusty sword to Wu's neck and said coldly, "Qin Guan Shi, my mother and I have been bullied in the Qin family for thirteen years! Mocked and ridiculed, pointed at behind our backs, openly and secretly plotting against us. We endured all this, but today this cheap woman dared to insult my mother in front of me. Tell me, will this sword dare not cut three more inches? Do you want to bet on it? Can this rusty broken sword kill this cheap woman cleanly?"

  "Little Stand..."

  Qin Han Yue was shocked, covering her mouth with her hand, her heart racing to her throat. Her son had just taken down the sword from the wall, and she thought Qin Li was just trying to boost his courage, but in an instant, he put the sword to Wu Shi's neck. Although Qin Han Yue wasn't skilled in martial arts, her judgment was top-notch, and seeing Qin Li's hand holding the sword without even a slight tremble, she knew he had truly intended to kill.

  Qin Han Yue had another doubt in her mind: when did Qin Li become so calm?

  "Are you trying to scare me?... Put away your broken sword! You little beast, if you have the guts, kill me! How dare you hit me, remember this, either kill me or I'll never let you off! And what's with the stench on you? You're indeed a mongrel, reeking to death!"

  Madam Wu's eyes bulged out round and her face was swollen high, but it didn't affect those vicious words spouting from her mouth at all.

  "Qin Li, you must be calm..."

  Qin Yong watched as the smile at the corner of Qin Li's mouth slowly disappeared, and a murderous aura began to emerge in his eyes. He realized that this kid had completely lost it. As he was telling Qin Li to calm down, before he could even finish saying the word "calm", he saw Qin Li's eyes shoot out two cold and fierce rays of light, and his right hand pressed down and pulled back.

  Pfft!

  A stream of hot blood spurted out from Wu's neck and splashed all over Qin Li.

  Wu's hands danced wildly as she tried to cover the wound with her hand, opening her mouth to say something, but a large amount of fresh blood gushed out from her mouth. Her eyes shot out an extremely frightened light, but it was all too late. Her body went limp and fell backwards, the last thing she saw being Xiao Ye, whom she had ridiculed for thirteen years, now looking like a god of death!

  Killing someone is like killing a chicken. Qin Li killed Wu Shi with one sword, without even looking at him, and walked towards Wu Yi, who had already been scared silly. In Qin Li's heart, the person he couldn't forgive was not this foul-mouthed Wu Shi, but this scum, this beast, who had harassed Qin Han Yue for so many years!

  A smile spread across his face, but in people's eyes, it was like a demon.
