Chapter 566 Let You Die After Being Enlightened
“You hired my second brother to kill me, and I immediately found out about it. Don’t you think it’s very laughable?”
Qiao Xi blinked, and her eyes were filled with doubt. “Ah Zheng wants to kill all of you to avenge me. I can’t even thank him enough, so why would I be afraid of him? Madam Yao, don’t tell me you think I’ll hate Ah Zheng because of this?”
Madam Yao widened her eyes in horror. She never expected that the pavilion master of Ling Pavilion was actually Qiao Xi’s second brother.
She had always thought that Ling Pavilion would attack Qiao Xi again. Since they had already accepted the money, they should kill Qiao Xi. Even if their family had been captured, Ling Pavilion should still fulfill their promise.
As long as Qiao Xi was dead and Chairman Gu was around, Gu Zheng might agree to the engagement. Who would have thought that Qiao Xi would have her ways to stay alive!
She was unable to figure out why Ling Pavilion had informed them that Qiao Xi was already dead, yet Qiao Xi could stand in front of them. Only now did she understand that Qiao Xi was from Ling Pavilion!
“Ah!!! Ah!!”
Yao Mengqing screamed in pain. Her shrill scream echoed throughout the entire dungeon.
Her tongue was already gone. When she opened her mouth, blood was flowing out from the wound. It was so painful that her face was contorted, but she still screamed like a lunatic.
A few seconds later, her body convulsed as she fell to the floor. Her fingers were twisted strangely, and the intense pain spread to her entire body. She clutched her chest and whimpered in pain.
Qiao Xi sat on Gu Zheng’s original seat and said slowly, “Right, I almost forgot that you’ve been poisoned.
“Miss Yao, you should know a lot about this poison. It’s savage and painful. You won’t be able to breathe properly and will feel pain all over your body. In the end, you’ll bleed from your seven apertures and die.
“Don’t think I don’t know that you poisoned me too!”
Yao Mengqing widened her eyes. Her heart had turned into ashes.
“Mr. Yao, Madam Yao, it seems you have some connections. You actually managed to buy poison like this. Did you think that this poison is incurable? You thought that even if Gu Zheng had the money to treat me, it’d be useless and I’d die a painful death?
“Since you poisoned me and even spent 20 million to look for an assassin from Ling Pavilion, it’s enough to prove that you want me to die!”
Madam Yao glared at Qiao Xi with
resentment.
She wanted her to die! She wanted her to die without a burial ground!
Who asked her to block Mengqing’s way and snatch the position of Mrs. Gu? Who asked Gu Zheng to like her and abandon Mengqing, his childhood sweetheart, for her? This b*tch had to die!
“Madam Yao, you must really want to know why I’m still alive after being poisoned, right?” Qiao Xi raised her eyebrows, and her eyes were filled with ridicule.
The three of them raised their eyes. Besides resentment, there was also a trace of doubt in their eyes. They knew that this poison was incurable. Moreover, Yao Mengqing stabbed the back of Qiao Xi’s hand with a needle that day. Why hadn’t the poison acted up yet?
“Then I’ll let all of you die after being enlightened.” Qiao Xi blinked, and her face carried a trace of a smile. Her next words caused the three members of the Yao family to feel as if they had fallen into an icy pit.
“Because I developed this poison!”
What? Impossible!
The Yao family was in disbelief. This poison was actually developed by her?
Qiao Xi sneered. “Madam Yao, you originally thought that I would be afraid of Gu Zheng, so you wanted to scare me away from him and let him have a taste of being abandoned, right?
“What a pity! I’m actually someone more terrifying than Gu Zheng!”
As soon as she finished speaking, the smile on her face vanished abruptly, and her expression was cold. “Although I developed this poison, I destroyed it because the toxicity is too strong. Naturally, there’s no antidote. I know very well where Yao Mengqing’s poison came from.
“You were used by a vicious man. Madam Yao, don’t you have any regrets now?”
Qiao Xi stood up and stopped in her tracks. She said coldly without turning her head, “Yao Mengqing, Madam Yao, Mr. Yao, enjoy your last moments!
“Qiao Xi, come back! Come back! We were wrong! Help us detoxify the poison!
“If we die, you can’t escape the blame!
“You’re standing here perfectly fine. Why can’t you forgive us?! Let us go…”
Qiao Xi ignored them and slowly walked out of the dungeon. She had just left when her arm was grabbed by someone and she fell into an icy-cold embrace.
