Chapter 120 - involved a lot of people
Purple Peony MACHINE TRANSLATION
He lanjin half propped herself up and pulled the quilt tightly to cover her body. When she heard him say the word “revenge, ” she noticed that Qiao Hanye’s black eyes were slightly dark and his entire body was emitting a bloodthirsty chill, as if the air had been frozen because of it.
“Revenge? What revenge? ” She asked softly.
“A blood feud, ” Qiao Hanye said in a low voice. He raised his eyes and looked at her. His well-defined Fingertip landed on her face and said, “an irreconcilable feud. ”
He lanjin was shocked. Just how great was the feud that could make Qiao Hanye’s eyes become so bloodthirsty.
Although she had not known him for long, she knew this man very well. He was indifferent, as if everything in the world had nothing to do with him but could be controlled by him. Nothing would make him lose control, but this matter had stirred up waves in his heart. It could be imagined how great the hatred was.
“Do you know who did it? ” Her voice was a little soft, afraid that she would disturb him.
“It involved a lot of people. The situation was a little complicated at that time, but I will find them one by one, ” Qiao Hanye said in a deep voice. His fingertips became extremely cold as he spoke.
He withdrew his hand and sat up.
He lanjin looked at his back. For some reason, she suddenly sat up and reached out to hug him from behind.
This action frightened even herself. She did not know why she did such a thing out of reflex.
“If you need help, let me know, ” he lanjin said in a low voice. Qiao Hanye looked at her small hands that were wrapped around her abdomen. He was stunned. He clearly didn’t expect this sentence to come out of a girl’s mouth.
Was this the so-called sharing weal and woe?
“okay, ” Qiao Hanye said in a low voice. He turned around and pulled her into his arms. The two of them hugged each other silently, as if time had frozen.
At this moment, she seemed to have reacquainted herself with Qiao Hanye. The cold bloodlust in his eyes was especially cold. She suddenly wanted to understand him, wanted to integrate into his life, wanted to know what kind of family Qiao Hanye lived in, what he had experienced, what he wanted to do…… She couldn’t wait to know.
“It’s very dangerous here. I’ll send you back tomorrow, ” Qiao Hanye said. He came here to bring her back.
Although the earthquake had passed, if there were any aftershocks, it would catch people off guard.
“We can’t leave yet. I’m investigating something. Regarding the corrupt officials, as the locals said, this is a mountainous area. The Emperor of Tiangao will not send anyone to investigate, so the poor families suffer. ”
“The country will allocate money to appease the poor families every year, but look at the people here. Which one of them looks like they were rescued by a sponsor? Where did the money go? ” He Lanjin said softly.
When she saved Zhao Yuyi that day, although he lanjin only wanted to say something to divert her attention, he lanjin took it to heart.
“Do you really want to investigate it yourself? ” Qiao Hanye asked when he saw her serious expression.
“Yes, I want to investigate it myself, ” He Lanjin said firmly. She would never back down from what she wanted to do.
However, she didn’t know that there were still unknown things waiting for them.
“I’m going out for a while. You stay in your room and don’t wander around, ” Qiao Hanye said to her. He lanjin nodded and watched him get up and put on his clothes before leaving.
The words he lanjin had just said surfaced in her mind. She couldn’t fall asleep no matter how hard she tried, so she got up and walked out.
“I’ve had enough. What does an earthquake have to do with me? Hurry up and take me away. ” The woman’s delicate voice rang out. A bowl of bird’s nest was smashed out and fell beside he lanjin’s feet.
She bent down to take a closer look. From its color, it was a high-class Bird’s nest. Ordinary people couldn’t afford it, but this person…… ……
“Okay, okay. I’ll take you away tomorrow. We won’t eat bird’s nest. Go to sleep obediently. ” The man coaxed a woman who was dressed coquettishly. After a long while, she entered the room.
He lanjin narrowed her almond-shaped eyes. If she remembered correctly, this place was a quake-proof zone. Why did it suddenly become someone else’s private residence?
“Old Chen, are you really leaving? Don’t forget why we hid in the mountains back then. You haven’t forgotten about the incident in Jiang City, have you? ” At this moment, the others asked in a low voice.
Hearing the word “Jiang City, ” he lanjin couldn’t help but perk up her ears and move closer.
