Reborn to Become A Queen: The Real Heiress's Comeback-Chapter 342 Rapist

Dugu Yan pushed away Chu Yin’s hand, her smile bright and flamboyant.

Chu Yin’s cheeks were flushed as she looked up and down at Zhan Lan, causing Zhan Lan to feel uncomfortable under her gaze.

After a long pause, Chu Yin asked, "Have you consummated your marriage with the Regent King?" freewёbn૦νeɭ.com

Zhan Lan spurted out the wine she had in her mouth.

Chu Yin continued to press, "How did it feel?"

Zhan Lan’s ears turned bright red as she glanced at Chu Yin and said, "Little kids shouldn’t pry into adult matters."

Chu Yin puffed out her chest and said, "I’m not a little kid!"

Dugu Yan reached out and gave her a feel before letting go with a disdainful shake of her head. Chu Yin, having been teased, lost it and threw her small fists at Dugu Yan.

"Dugu Yan, you filthy rogue!"

Dugu Yan took the hits and grabbed her wrist, saying, "Indeed, a child, and now one can’t even speak the truth."

Chu Yin was fuming and retracted her fists while Dugu Yan said in a hushed tone, "Once you get married, you can become like an adult too!"

Chu Yin’s big watery eyes slyly glanced at Zhan Lan and said, "Like Zhan Lan..."

Dugu Yan shook her head, "That might be a bit of a tough ask!"

Chu Yin: "..."

Zhan Lan: "..."

Following that, Dugu Yan’s shoulders received a punch each from both sides!

Dugu Yan rubbed her shoulders and said, "So you two don’t even let one tell the truth anymore!"

Zhan Lan watched Dugu Yan and Chu Yin’s playful bickering and felt joy in her heart.

In her previous life, these two dear sisters both died for her sake.

In this life, seeing them become good friends because of her made Zhan Lan very happy.

The three of them drank merrily, then went on to play pitch-pot, hoop tossing, and in the end, they played pai gow together.

Vermilion Bird stood guard outside, and Zhan Lan drank a few extra cups.

Chu Yin was tipsy, her cheeks peachy red; Dugu Yan could hold her liquor well and showed no reaction, the most sober of them all.

Zhan Lan was slightly inebriated, her cheeks touched with a faint blush.

The three of them chatted happily until midnight.

Mu Yan came looking for Zhan Lan which made a grinning Chu Yin say, "Zhan Lan, your husband has come to catch you, run quick!"

Mu Yan looked at Chu Yin thoughtfully and asked, "Does Your Highness need me to inform your husband too?"

Chu Yin mumbled drowsily, "I don’t have a husband; I’m not married yet!"

Mu Yan took Zhan Lan by the hand and led her out. Chu Yin was feeling sleepy, so four Protectors and maids took her away.

Dugu Yan rode away on her horse, and the three of them split up, each going their separate ways from the night market.

Zhan Lan sat in the carriage, leaning on Mu Yan’s shoulder, and said lazily, "Mu Yan, thank you."

Mu Yan gave a faint smile and caressed her fingers, without a word in response.

...

On the way home, as Chu Yin’s carriage made its way through the alley, she dozed off against the carriage wall.

Suddenly, the carriage stopped abruptly. Chu Yin woke with a start and confusedly drew back the curtain.

But all four Protectors lay on the ground, and in the next instant, she felt darkness before her eyes and fainted in the carriage, only to be bagged and carried away.

Chu Yin woke up halfway through the ordeal, with something stuffed in her mouth, unable to call for help.

She struggled desperately inside the hemp sack as a man in black brought her into a desolate courtyard.

The man in black threw her into a broken house, opened the sack, and as he looked at her with tears streaming down her face, he reached out to tear at her clothes.

Chu Yin clenched a silver needle in her hands and, as the man bent over, aimed to stab his eye. He blocked with his hand, and the needle pierced the back of it, causing him to feel a sudden numbness in his hand.

The next moment, he drew a dagger and cut the ropes binding Chu Yin, who, terrified, began to run away.

But her strength was too slight, and the man dragged her back again.

The cloth in Chu Yin’s mouth fell, and she screamed for help, "Save me, please... save me..."

Just as the man was about to hit her neck with a chop, the door was smashed open with a bang.

Pressed under the man in black’s leg, Chu Yin looked up at the person who had come, her tears flowing uncontrollably as she shouted, "Zhan Hui!"

Zhan Hui kicked the man in black, sending him flying.

The man in black picked up the dagger and said to Zhan Hui, "You dare ruin my fun, you’re seeking death!"

Zhan Hui, with the eyes of an eagle, stared at the man in black and lifted Chu Yin from the ground, hiding her behind himself.

Standing behind Zhan Hui, Chu Yin finally felt she was truly saved.

The man in black lunged at Zhan Hui with the dagger, and Zhan Hui said to Chu Yin, "Close your eyes!"

Chu Yin closed her eyes, and in the next moment, Zhan Hui drew his sword with the speed of lightning, and in a breath, sliced open the neck of the man in black.

Blood splattered on Zhan Hui’s clothes, and the man in black fell to the ground dead.

Zhan Hui removed the black cloth from the man’s face, and from his martial skills, it seemed he was not the rapist, Flower Demon, recently wanted by the court; perhaps he was just a thug who acted on lustful impulse.

Chu Yin heard something fall to the ground and asked with her eyes still closed, "Can I open my eyes now?"

Zhan Hui walked in front of her and, with his sword behind his back, kissed her on the lips.

The tender touch made Chu Yin open her eyes wide, both shy and frightened.

"Yin’er, don’t look," Zhan Hui said, covering her eyes again to prevent her from seeing the body on the ground.

Chu Yin pushed Zhan Hui’s hand away and looked at the body on the ground. Even though she was terrified, with Zhan Hui there, it didn’t seem so scary.

"Zhan Hui, you forgot, I am now a physician, and when I went to find you, I saw so many corpses on the battlefield, I got used to it!" Chu Yin pouted.

"Our Yin’er is a brave girl," Zhan Hui said, holding her hand as they both left the dilapidated house.

Chu Yin thought back to the recent scene, still scared in hindsight, and said to Zhan Hui, "I’m so lucky you came, otherwise I, I would have..."

Zhan Hui, full of remorse, said, "I’m sorry, Yin’er, Lan had someone notify me to come for you. I was late; something like this will never happen again!"

Chu Yin was also full of self-reproach, vowing not to dare come out to play this late ever again.

If Zhan Hui had not arrived today, she might have been defiled or killed by the man in black.

Chu Yin realized that life is full of uncertainties.

She mustered her courage, tiptoed, and kissed Zhan Hui on the lips.

Zhan Hui shuddered and deepened the kiss.

The two left the alley and walked onto the main street when suddenly Chu Yin grabbed Zhan Hui’s hand and entered a restaurant.

Zhan Hui did not know what Chu Yin intended to do, thinking she might be overly shaken and wanting to eat something, so followed her into a private room.

Once in the room, he realized the atmosphere was amiss and with frowned eyebrows, asked, "Chu Yin, what are we doing here?"

Chu Yin, with cheeks flushed and courage summoned, undid her belt, and her outer garment slid off in an instant.

Zhan Hui’s Adam’s apple bobbed, and he closed his eyes, "Chu Yin, what are you doing!"

Chu Yin stepped forward and embraced Zhan Hui, saying, "Zhan Hui, take me, then we can get married..."
