Chapter 148

  Li Ru lay on the ground, maintaining a standard five-body prostration posture. If reason couldn't be used to persuade, and intelligence was useless, she still had one last resort - her own body. She understood how attractive her body was to men, and with her identity as Su Qing's stepmother, it had an even greater allure to them.

  When necessary, she doesn't mind using this killer move. But facing Cheng Da Lei and facing Gong Yang Ai are different; when facing Gong Yang Ai, she is the one appreciating the view; when facing Cheng Da Lei, it's about making herself become the beautiful view itself.

  She didn't believe that Cheng Darui had the ability to resist this temptation.

  "Can you get up and talk?" Cheng Dairen's voice was somewhat unnatural.

  Li Ruzhan stood up and looked at Cheng Darui with an upward gaze, highlighting his tall stature. Don't all men like being tall?

  "After all the calculations, in the end it's just a futile effort. If Master Cheng can show some mercy and spare my family a way out, we only ask for stability. In the future, whether I'm a slave or a servant, I will always remember Master Cheng's kindness."

  "Y...ou..." Cheng Daire's tone became increasingly unnatural, his breathing quickening slightly.

  No one could withstand this killing intent, and Cheng Dairen was no exception. She leaned in close to Cheng Dairen, her breath wanting to caress his face.

  "Cheng Jiang, if you want me to do something for your family, I can do it here. I was born to serve people, and I... am very good at serving people."

  "Can you..."

  "What do you want me to do?" Li Ruxu was pressed tighter, but in his heart he had some disdain, after all just a mountain bandit.

  "You stepped on my robe." Cheng Dairen's face hurt as he said, "I just received this official uniform today and haven't even washed it yet."

  "... Li Ru."

  Is he so grief-stricken, pining for his own robe, yet unable to see the person standing before him is a thousand times more precious? Should I say he's a blockhead or that I overestimated my own charm?

  Bang!

  A sudden change has occurred at this moment.

  Li Ru saw that a person came out of the cabinet behind Cheng Dairen, holding a waist knife and stabbing him in the back.

  "Damn you, go die!"

  It is a public sheep.

  I don't know when he hid in the cabinet. It was probably when he saw himself leading Cheng Dalai over, and he entered the house in advance to brew his final kill.

  Even if he killed Cheng Dairen now, it wouldn't change the overall situation. Now Li Ruzhen sincerely hoped that this knife would not hurt Cheng Dairen.

  Gong Yangyin shouldn't have made a sound, for his voice had already prepared Cheng Dairen in advance. He turned around but didn't have time to draw his sword, so he could only use the scabbard to block Gong Yangyin's attack.

  The knife came with a fierce momentum, the public sheep's knife method was not a routine, but simple and direct, only from the vital point. This is the knife method that has been tempered in the wilderness with wild beasts, making it even more ferocious.

  Cheng Darui had never encountered such an opponent before, the other side was ruthless like a mad dog, and the killing method was completely a tit-for-tat approach.

  Bang!

  Cheng Dalai kicked open the door with one foot, expanding the fighting space, and also to let people in from outside. As a leader, what's the point of showing off bravery?

  But Gong Yang Ai has already grabbed Li Ru's wrist and hidden it behind his back.

  "Don't be afraid, sister, I'll take you out of here!"

  "Good fellow!" Cheng Da Lei praised and said: "The sky is big, the earth is big, where can you escape to? Come on, have a one-on-one duel with me. If you win over my knife, I'll let you go."

  The goat's eyes flickered with a hint of movement.

  "Don't believe him, he's stalling for time!" said Li Rudao.

  "Dog thief!" The ram let out a loud roar in grief and anger, swinging his knife to chop towards Cheng Da Lei.

  Deceived by the public goat, yet deceived by Li Ru is even more unbearable.

  But it doesn't matter even if exposed, because Cheng Dairen's men have arrived. A iron spear in the slanting stab caught Gong Yangyin's knife, and the two became entangled.

  This is a match made in heaven, where two masters meet. Within ten moves, neither side has the upper hand. The onlookers from Crabshell Village are all impressed by Gong Yang's martial arts skills, and Li Ru has such a formidable expert under his command.

  So for this reason, everyone did not choose to rush up together.

  "Qin big brother, you step back and let me meet him." It was Zhao Zilong's voice, he didn't use his spear but instead chose to use a waist knife.

  The male goat's sorrowful appearance was like a trapped beast, panting heavily. He turned around and tightly shielded Li Ru behind him, saying: "Sister Ru, don't be afraid, I'll protect you out of here!"

  "Uh-huh."

  "Come on, kill!" The male goat roared at the crowd with a sad face.

  Suddenly a stone was heavily smashed on the back of the ram's head from behind, and blood flowed instantly. The ram turned its head and saw Li Ru hurriedly throwing away the stone.

  "Like sister... you..." Gong Yang's words were left unspoken as he thudded to the ground.

  Li Ru was frightened and lost her composure, but she quickly regained her calm and lifted her head to say: "This man deliberately committed murder, having a wicked slave in my household is due to my leniency in daily discipline, everything will be handled by General Cheng."

  As he glanced over the flock of sheep that had died from the plague, a hint of desolation flashed across Li Ru's eyes: Foolish little brother, where can you escape to anyway? As for me, I don't need to escape.

  Everyone was stunned by this scene, and a phrase flashed in their minds: "A woman's heart is the most poisonous."

  Cheng Dalai clapped his hands lightly: "Alright, alright! Someone, take this person to the big prison. Professional matters will be handled by professionals. As for Mrs. Su...this is your family affair, listen to Miss Su's arrangements."

  The Su family has a lot of property, such as fields outside the city, houses and industries inside the city, cargo ships coming and going at the dock... Some businesses, in addition to Su Si-hai himself, also involve his uncles, brothers and other relatives. As for the share that originally belonged to Su Si-hai, it naturally belongs to Su Qing now, and no one else will or dare have any opinions about it.

  Su Ying also followed Cheng Dairen's words and said something like: In the future, everyone will work together to make Su's family more prosperous.

  Ruling by violence and connecting through benefits, so-called ruling techniques are nothing more than this, boring yet practical.

  As for how to deal with Li Ru, Cheng Dairen did not offer any opinions. Su Qing showed an unprecedented indifference and drove Li Ru and her daughter out of the Su Mansion, giving them a few acres of thin land to make a living. Li Ru, who was used to being in control, probably could only hold onto a hoe from then on.

  "Big deal, cutting grass without removing the roots, being careful to raise a tiger as a threat. Is this way of dealing with her too lenient?" Xu Shenji said as he walked over.

  "A mere woman, what's the big deal? At most, a tigress. My sword is meant to unite heroes under heaven, these messy household chores are of little significance."

  Xu Shenqi was taken aback: "Eldest Master, is that a knife in your hand?"

  "......" Cheng Dalai suddenly roared: "What I said is a symbol, what is a symbol do you understand?!"
