Chapter 1011: Warning
The hand with which Second Qin was grasping his brush paused slightly, and he asked without raising his head, “Driven out?”
“Yes.” A 27 to 28-year-old man lowered his head as he stood before Second Young Sir Qin’s desk, holding his breath as he awaited the second young sir’s wrath.
However, the second young sir didn’t flare up at all, merely nodding lightly instead. “It was my miscalculation. I didn’t expect that she wasn’t the least bit curious at all and didn’t keep her. She really is a little fellow with no conscience.”
“How is it possible for Young Sir to miscalculate.” Huang Chong lifted his face and creased his brows as he reported, “Our people had sent Xiang Yuanyuan a secretly-concocted poison pill the day before yesterday. But even until today, Eldest Miss Qiao did not show the slightest inclination of wanting to drive her out. Presumably, she must have been a bit curious.”
“Oh?” Only after setting down the brush in his hand did Second Qin raise his eyes as he looked at Huang Chong indifferently.
“You think that it was the crown prince’s idea.”
Huang Chong nodded without any hesitation.
“According to this subordinate’s investigation, the crown prince arrived at Miss Qiao’s Estate at nightfall. Then, before the lamps were lit, Miss Qiao had someone give Xiang Yuanyuan some valuables and travelling expenses before sending her away.”
Upon hearing these words, an emerald-green color flitted across the depths of Second Qin’s eyes, and he smiled faintly. “That man is indeed this young sir’s formidable adversary. Thinking about it carefully, even Shuntian Prefecture’s people were tragically defeated by him. With this, probably no one in this Lower Star Domain can deal with him.”
Huang Chong asked agitatedly, “Young Sir, should this subordinate intervene and have that Xiang Yuanyuan…”
As he made a motion of slashing his neck, murderous intent flashed across his eyes.
Yet Second Qin waved his hand unconcernedly. “So be it if she left. Just let her leave the capital.”
Huang Chong was startled. “Then should this subordinate seek out Great Master Ye to remove the puppet curse on Xiang Yuanyuan?”
“Mhm, remove it.” Second Qin nodded slightly, attracting an even more flabbergasted gaze from Huang Chong.
But he didn’t dare to look at his family’s young sir too much. After a glance, he quickly hung his head again, but his heart was unsettled in bewilderment.
Normally, towards this kind of discarded pawn, the second young sir would send people to dispose of them cleanly, but today…/
The second young sir really was letting off Xiang Yuanyuan that young lady? And even planning to remove the puppet curse on Xiang Yuanyuan, directly letting her go!
Was this… in consideration of Eldest Miss Qiao?
As Second Young Sir Qin waved his hand with slight fatigue to dismiss this subordinate, he secretly sighed in his mind:
Since this small pawn couldn’t stay by her side, then it was useless. He wouldn’t care where the person went after this.
The second young sir had become soft-hearted. As Huang Chong withdrew, a viciousness flashed past his eyes.
Just as he turned around and was about to walk away, he heard Second Young Sir Qin’s chilly voice ring softly in his ear. “Huang Chong, this young sir wants her to leave safely, so be sure not to feign compliance. You understand what this young sir’s methods are like.”
A baleful look had only just surfaced in Huang Chong before he abruptly discarded it with a jolt. After quickly nodding, he despondently withdrew from the young sir’s room in horror.
How could he forget that the young sir hated it the most when people acted one way in front of him and another way behind his back.
Shortly after, several men dressed in cyan, short-lapel robes appeared beside Huang Chong and bowed to him.
“Go request for Great Master Ye to remove the curse on Miss Xiang. You all make sure to properly escort Miss Xiang out of the capital city. No mishaps will be tolerated.”
“Yes!” The subordinates instantly dispersed, respectively going to carry out their orders.
