Quick Wear: The Stunning Beauty is Forbidden to Be Pampered

Chapter 98 World 2: The Cold Emperor and the Spoiled Concubine (45)

Nanling.

Inn.

Zhou Changling's sudden action of killing Xu Zimu caught everyone present off guard.

Especially Zhao Xueqing, she was so frightened that she trembled and screamed "Ah——"

After all, Zhao Xueqing is a person living in modern society. No matter how cruel she is, she has never faced death directly. What's more, she didn't kill those people, but she used others to kill them.

Zhao Xueqing's screams soon stopped in Zhou Changling's eyes. She knew that he would really kill her! She would most likely die!

So Zhao Xueqing kowtowed frantically and begged for mercy: "I, I, what I said is true, don't kill me, really don't kill me! I have an antidote, I really have an antidote!"

Zhou Changling didn't want to pay any attention to the previous words. He had already made up his mind to execute this evil woman, but her last words made Zhou Changling give up the idea temporarily!

The word "antidote" touched his nerves as soon as it came out. Although Bai Lingxi's whereabouts are unknown now, he still hopes to get the antidote to save her.

However, Zhou Changling was a shrewd man and was not easily deceived. He did not completely believe what Zhao Xueqing said.

Zhou Changling narrowed his eyes slightly, observing Zhao Xueqing's expression, judging the truthfulness of her words to see if she was lying.

Unfortunately, Zhao Xueqing’s face was full of panic now. She was afraid that Zhou Changling would take her life now, and she wanted to escape from here immediately.

When she saw Zhou Changling blaming her for this sentence, it was like she had grabbed the last straw and kept repeating it desperately, making it difficult to tell whether what she said was true or false.

Zhao Xueqing fell to the ground, kowtowed repeatedly: "I have the antidote, I really have the antidote, don't kill me, don't kill me!"

"Where is the antidote?" Zhou Changling stood up from his chair and walked to Zhao Xueqing. At this time, his subordinates had just pulled out the knife that was stuck in Xu Zimu's body and handed it to Zhou Changling respectfully.

"Don't blame me for not giving you a chance. If you lie to me, I will cut you into pieces!"

Zhou Changling put the dagger against Zhao Xueqing's face. The cold touch was like a slippery poisonous snake, making her shiver.

"Yes, yes, in the bandit's lair. Yes, in Black Wind Village! I was captured there, and everything I had was taken away. The antidote was also there!"

Zhao Xueqing said half-truthfully that her things were indeed in the Black Wind Village, but there was no antidote in them, only gold, silver and jewelry.

The purpose of her saying this was just to delay time and try to save herself. It would be even better if she could use Black Wind Village to kill Zhou Changling.

Unfortunately, her goal was impossible to achieve, because the next second, Zhou Changling raised his knife and stabbed her throat directly with the dagger!

The smile on Zhao Xueqing's face was frozen forever at that moment before she could take it away.

He must go to Black Wind Village, but not now. His goal is to rush back to the capital and find Bai Lingxi as soon as possible.

As for whether the antidote Zhao Xueqing mentioned was true or false, the truth would naturally come out when he sent soldiers to suppress the bandits, although he no longer had any hope for it.

After killing Zhao Xueqing, Zhou Changling gave the order: "Return to the palace!"

No one present was a kind-hearted person. They all crawled out of the pile of corpses. No one thought that Zhou Changling was cruel and ruthless, and no one sympathized with these two people.

Therefore, their bodies were thrown into mass graves at random, and no one knew whether they were taken away by wolves or eaten by wild dogs.

No one saw that the colorful halo of the heroine on Zhao Xueqing's body flew away from her body after her soul dissipated, and that direction was exactly the capital!

After dealing with this matter, Zhou Changling and his team rode back at full speed.

During this period, he used his own secret letters to spread the news of the missing person throughout the country, and various intelligence stations also began to take action.

"Your Majesty, the Queen has not been found in the entire southern region."

"Your Majesty, the Queen has not been found in the north."

"Your Majesty, the Queen was not found in the West."

"emperor……"

News came in from all over the place one after another, and there was no good news in the secret letters. The coldness emanating from Zhou Changling became heavier day by day, and his brows were furrowed tighter.

And there is a small mountain village far away from the capital.

Ever since Bai Lingxi told Zhou Jin everything, the two of them haven't communicated with each other anymore, and Zhou Jin keeps a close eye on her, as if she's caught in a vicious cycle.

Bai Lingxi could no longer stand Zhou Jin's control. She had no freedom and was being guarded like a heinous criminal.

On this day, she calculated that Zhou Changling should be back in Beijing and would definitely find out about her disappearance. She wanted to run to a busy place and find a chance to escape!

So she said to the person who was taking care of her: "I want to see Zhou Jin!"

The female secret guard nodded after hearing this, with no expression on her face, but her cheerful footsteps revealed her inner expectation.

When Zhou Jin arrived, Bai Lingxi had just finished lunch and was rinsing her mouth with tea. Her every move showed her elegance, and her beautiful face made every movement she made so alluring.

Seeing him coming, Bai Lingxi was stunned for a moment, because Zhou Jin was much thinner now than a few days ago, and he looked handsome and elegant, with a bit of immortal air.

It was obviously not the first time they met, but it was as if they were meeting for the first time. The attraction between their souls bound them together. Bai Lingxi put down the tea and stood up to greet him.

The two looked at each other in silence, yet it seemed as if they had a thousand words to say to each other. For some reason, Bai Lingxi's eyes suddenly turned red.

"Xi'er, don't cry." Zhou Jin's voice was slightly hoarse, and he reached out his hand tremblingly, wanting to comfort her, but when he was about to touch Bai Lingxi's shoulder, he stopped where he was.

"I didn't cry." Bai Lingxi's soft voice carried a hint of grievance. She was shocked when she said this.

Bai Lingxi didn't want him to continue this topic, and also wanted to pretend that she didn't care, so she spoke in a relaxed manner.

"It's too boring here. I want to go out for a walk. Didn't we say we were going to the market last time? It's almost the end of the year, so I want to go and take a look!"

Zhou Jin hesitated. His hesitation was not because he didn't want to take Bai Lingxi out for fun, but because his secret guards discovered that Zhou Changling was arranging people to secretly search for Bai Lingxi.

Zhou Jin was worried that if he met those people, he would not be 100% sure that he could bring the person back, or in other words, once his whereabouts were exposed, there would be no peace.

Zhou Jin tried to speak: "But..."

"Is it not possible? I've waited so long, is it not possible? Then what can I do? I'm afraid I can only be a bird in a closet, a bird in a cage, for your entertainment!"

Bai Lingxi showed a mocking expression, her beautiful face was full of indifference, as if she was extremely disappointed in him, she turned her head away and no longer looked at him!
