Chapter 261: Well Known in the City 6

“Now that I’ve beaten Lu Yan, I wonder if he’ll mess with me secretly,” Qi Qingyao suddenly blurted out. “You’ve said it before, many people suspect that I have relations with Su Hexiao and Master Li Qinglian. When I brought you guys into this house this afternoon, many ‘bypassers’ outside had sneaked looks over at us. Not just me, they also looked at the two of you. The servants that you hired haven’t arrived, so there are only three adults and three children tonight in the whole of this mansion.”

Jiang Yeqian frowned slightly, unsure of what she was trying to say.

Qi Qingyao suddenly snorted with laughter. “I’m sure this house will be very lively tonight, right?”

Jiang Yeqian, “…” Oh, so she did understand!!

Qi Qingyao asked, “I asked you to hire an undertaker, have you done it?”

Jiang Yeqian replied, “I have.”

Even if she did not say anything about this, he still would have prepared in advance. However, since she had, it meant that she had thought of it in advance…so he naturally spent the silver she gave.

Jiang Yeqian was about to ask what they would do if someone came tonight, but before he could voice out the question, Qi Qingyao already answered.

“Tonight, regardless if it’s assassins who come, or those who want to try and test me, I want them all dead. There’ll be no survivors.”

All dead.

Did she think that they were that strong?

Si Jin nodded obediently, not questioning her at all.

Jiang Yeqian asked cautiously, “What if the opponent is too strong to kill?”

If those who came were some rank-eights or a dozen of rank-sevens, would it be unreasonable to expect him and Si Jin to be able to get out of it unscathed?

The trump card that was his strength would be instantly revealed if that happened.

There were only seven master-level powerhouses.

There were not a lot of rank-nines either.

Once his strength was revealed, outsiders would be able to discern his identity via the method of elimination.

Qi Qingyao understood what he meant. She turned her head around and faced Jiang Yeqian. Her smile was extremely casual. “Oh, I forgot to add, those who come to kill me tonight will be intending to test me. I, in turn, am using them to test both of your skills. If you can’t deal with them, then… Jiang Bai, you have to get lost.”

‘This woman…’ She did not even allow him the possibility to play dumb all.

Qi Qingyao had a smile that did not quite reach her eyes. “I don’t care about whether the lineage you told me last time is true or false, I only like people who are useful to me. Those who are useless and like to tell lies have to get lost.”

She made this statement intentional.

She had not considered the degree of his strength; her words were simply to provoke Jiang Bai to give his all for her tonight. If he got hurt she would treat him!

However, if some intruders were to break through their defense tonight due to him trying to hide his strength so as to not be discovered by the State Preceptor, she was afraid that her life and the children’s lives would be in danger.

So, she could only force this bastard to do his best!

These unsaid words hurt Jiang Yeqian a lot. He could not help but look at Si Jin, who had been silent by the side. “What did I do for her to always be targeting me?” If they failed to handle the situation, only he would be banished. What about Si Jin! Why did she not threaten him to get lost too!

Si Jin curled his lips and rubbed the point in. “Perhaps it’s because you’re not as cute as me.”

Jiang Yeqian, “…”

Qi Qingyao rolled her eyes and entered the house.

She asked Si Jin to bring over the Four Treasures (TN: calligraphy essentials).

“Grind the ink!” Qi Qingyao ordered again.

Si Jin replied with an “oh” and began grinding the ink obediently.

Jiang Yeqian was curious about what she was preparing.

Qi Qingyao quickly took out a feather pen and a wooden ruler from the luggage. After spreading open the scroll of paper, she began drawing a blueprint of the entire mansion on the paper.

Jiang Yeqian was slightly taken aback when he looked at the drawing of the mansion she drew.

This woman, she… spent a lot of time this afternoon purposely rounding the entire mansion. He had thought at that time that she just wanted to tour the mansion of a rich man.

Who would have expected her to be secretly memorizing the map?

Her memory was… surprisingly good!

The layout of this drawing was very similar to the blueprint of their small house.

Indeed, it was her handwriting!

Wait, could it be that she was Master Architect Li Qinglian?

Although, her age…

Did not make sense!
