Transmigrated Genius: Fragile Heiress Reigns Supreme-Chapter 632 - 634: Pranks (4)
With a click, the bronze lock fell to the ground.
The Second Madam heard the noise, turned around, and sat on the chest. She looked at Xiao Yanyi with a smile and said, "Marquis, have you ever loved me? Even just a little bit, have you ever loved me?"
"Get out!" Xiao Yanyi, in a fit of rage, pushed her away, then opened the chest. Upon seeing the scene inside, he stood there dumbfounded, devoid of any expression. 𝐟𝚛𝕖𝚎𝕨𝗲𝐛𝚗𝐨𝐯𝐞𝕝.𝐜𝗼𝗺
The Second Madam watched his lost and forlorn look, then got up from the ground and began laughing wildly. She laughed and walked over, her gaze also falling into the chest, and she too was stunned.
Inside the chest lay a Yuan Qinghua narrow-necked Mei Bottle with a "Ghost Valley Descends the Mountain" design. It was just the Mei Bottle, without any sign of Tong Xiqiu.
She recognized this Mei Bottle; it was the one displayed in the main hall of the Rong County Prince Mansion, her father’s favorite Mei Bottle during his lifetime.
How could it be here, how could it be here.
"Where is Tong Xiqiu? Where is Tong Xiqiu?" The Second Madam shook her head, mumbling in disbelief. Suddenly, she froze, as if realizing something, yet unable to accept it. She started trembling, her body shaking uncontrollably...
Xiao Yanyi turned around, his gaze harboring an irrepressible killing intent. He looked at the Second Madam and asked word by word, "Where is Xiqiu?"
The Second Madam snapped back to reality, but her mind seemed even more blurred. She looked at Xiao Yanyi, besides shaking her head, not knowing what to say, what could she say? It was the Mei Bottle from the Rong County Prince Mansion’s main hall... without her brother’s consent, how could it appear here.
What does it mean?
Something exploded in the Second Madam’s mind for an instant, everything before her blurred, darkness, endless darkness engulfed her.
"Tong Xiqiu, Tong Xiqiu!" The Second Madam screamed, eyes filled with endless despair. She looked at Xiao Yanyi, and suddenly rushed toward him, grabbing his sleeve. "What did you do, why is father’s Mei Bottle here? What did you do? Impossible, impossible!"
Xiao Yanyi furrowed his eyebrows and looked at her, suspicion suddenly arising. He stepped back, scanning the room again, confirming there was nowhere else to hide a person in the room, also confirming the Second Madam truly did not know where Tong Xiqiu was at this moment.
He pushed the Second Madam aside and hurriedly stepped out.
Where is Tong Xiqiu, where exactly is she now? Xiao Yanyi dared not think of the possibilities, dark-clad masked figures, ferocious and menacing, she, a weak woman...
He walked outside, the Second Madam looked at his back, then looked at the dagger she had been gripping in her hand, clenching it so tight it almost plunged into her palm. Without a second thought, she charged forward.
The sharp dagger thrust into Xiao Yanyi’s back, was pulled out, and thrust in again...
In a blink, his silver-white coat had turned blood-red.
The Second Madam’s gaze lost focus, her actions mechanical as she giggled, mumbling, "Marquis... we are to be together forever, never to part, never to part!" She stabbed twice, Xiao Yanyi turned to grab her hand, snatched the dagger from her hand, holding it himself. The color on his face faded gradually as blood flowed from the wound on his back...
It seemed the Second Madam was oblivious, repeating her previous actions, with fists now pounding on Xiao Yanyi’s chest, still muttering, "Marquis... we are to be together forever, never to part, never to part!"
Blood flowed from Xiao Yanyi’s mouth, he could barely stand, his body involuntarily trembled.
At this moment!
"Marquis!" A voice as melodious as music came from behind him. He couldn’t believe it... couldn’t believe it was real, he struggled to turn around to see, to look at the source of the voice behind him.
What did he see? It was Xiqiu, she wore a red purple plain overcoat, though her face was pale, she was unharmed, yes, unharmed...
Xiao Yanyi smiled, just like that, he smiled.
"Second Brother!" Who is it, who is calling him, is it Fourth Brother?
It’s Fourth Brother who saved Xiqiu, Xiao Yanyi breathed a sigh of relief, she’s alright, she’s alright!
Fourth Master Xiao took two steps from the doorway, catching the falling Xiao Yanyi: "Second Brother!"
"Marquis!"
Xiqiu came over, supporting Xiao Yanyi with Fourth Master Xiao. She looked at him, and he was also looking at her, a relieved smile on his face, he slowly closed his eyes.
The room was silent, something trickled down from him, dripping onto the ground, splattering on Xiqiu.
The Second Madam continued repeating her actions, muttering to herself, "Marquis we are to be together forever, never to part, never to part!"
"Someone! Call the Imperial Physician!" Fourth Master Xiao carried Xiao Yanyi in his arms, cast a dark glance at the Second Madam, then turned and left the room. Xiqiu paused her steps, turned back to look at the Second Madam, only to see her eyes scattered, her face in a daze, repeating a motion and muttering the same words...
She bypassed Prince Rong frozen at the doorway, leaving without looking back.
Prince Rong stood in a red Python Robe, hands behind his back, fine and elegant features contorted, revealing nothing of his thoughts, but the hand hanging by his side was clenched into a tight fist, unmoving for a long time.
This was his sister, cherished in his hands since childhood, a smart and clever sister, always doing what others couldn’t or didn’t think of; she could do thoroughly and thoughtfully, what others could do, she did even better. Everyone said she was good-tempered, but he knew she was very competitive, never allowing herself to be at a disadvantage. Whatever she set her mind to, she had to accomplish.
He, his father, and grandmother all liked her very much, cherished her, and as long as she made requests, they were never unmet. And she never capriciously demanded anything beyond reach, she always struck the right balance, gauged others’ thoughts, achieved what she wanted, her goals neither more nor less.
She was very smart, understanding the big picture, but this time...
Prince Rong tightly furrowed his brows, his eyes filled with disappointment as he looked at the Second Madam...
Tiancheng softly said on the side, "Commandery Prince, please rest for a while in the outer courtyard."
Prince Rong said nothing; after a long while, he waved his sleeve, leaving without looking back!
Outside the room, kneeling maids and old women were holding their breath, the Marquis was injured, it was done by the Second Madam; with no one else in the room, what exactly happened?
Zijuan started crying, not daring to enter the room, kneeling there, her face full of despair and lifelessness.
The Second Madam remained standing, repeating her actions, repeating her words.
Fourth Master Xiao carried Xiao Yanyi all the way out of the courtyard, Xiqiu running behind in small steps. The Grand Dowager had already come from afar to meet them, and upon seeing Fourth Master Xiao carrying Xiao Yanyi, she suddenly blacked out, grasping Mrs. and Nanny Wu’s hands, asking in broken words, "What’s wrong with the second, what happened!"
