Transformed into a vicious stepmother, invincible

Chapter 52 Don’t make me make this trip in vain, okay?

Bai Sui'an wore a fox mask on his face, and his eyes, filled with unclear emotions, were like two abysses, giving the people in front of him a sense of oppression.

"Let me go, let me go..." Weng Lai grabbed Bai Sui'an's wrists tightly with both hands and begged for mercy in a low voice.

"Answer my question, and I'll spare your life."

Bai Sui'an pressed him down on the table in the room with his backhand, stood behind him, and used his elbows to exert force, making it difficult for the opponent to counterattack.

"I confess! I confess everything!" One of Weng Lai's hands was twisted behind his back by Bai Sui'an, and the other hand was tucked in front of him, groping for the props on his body.

I just hope I can delay it until someone notices I'm missing.

A dark shadow was standing on the house in the neighboring yard. Seeing Bai Sui'an capturing the thief alone from afar, he snorted and felt bored. He found a relatively flat place on the roof, lay down and yawned.

Wan Chen had been asked to leave the courtyard before, and just now he asked two guards to find an excuse to go out and protect Wan Chen. Now only Bai Sui'an and Weng Lai, who came to assassinate him, were left in the courtyard.

Weng Lai had already thought of how to answer. As long as he gave that person up, he could escape unscathed...

Bai Sui'an asked, "Where is the base of the remnants of the Tianxuan Nation?"

The person who was pressed on the table was dumbfounded: "Big brother! That's not the question you asked just now!"

Bai Sui'an kicked him on the hind leg: "Stop talking nonsense!"

"I, I don't know!" Weng Lai's eyes were dodging, and his hands hidden in front of him frantically searched for the signal flare in the secret compartment. "I am from Qianheng Country, I don't know anything about Tianxuan Country..."

"Then you probably don't know about the princess of Tianxuan Country being stranded in Qianheng Country, right?"

Weng Lai was astonished: "You, how do you know..."

He quickly changed the subject mid-sentence: "Didn't they say that all the members of the Tianxuan Kingdom's royal family were gone? It was our Crown Prince who personally led the troops to attack them."

"Is this true? Then who was the girl I rescued a few days ago? Her surname seemed to be Gong..." Bai Sui'an narrowed his eyes, taking in all the changes in the other person's expression.

The royal family of Tianxuan Kingdom has the surname Gong, but after the original body came to Qianheng Kingdom, it changed to his father's surname, which happened to be the same as Bai Sui'an's name.

Weng Lai suddenly widened his eyes and tried to turn his head to see the expression of the person behind him, but he was being held down and could not see anything. He hurriedly lowered his head with the flare still in his hand.

"I'm just a petty thief, how could I know who Gong is..."

"Don't be afraid." Bai Sui'an said softly,

"There are people watching outside. I'll play along for a while. Tell me the location of our base, and I'll tell you the news about the princess. She's been trying to get in touch with you. It took me a long time to track you down. Don't make me go out for nothing, okay?"

"What...what is your relationship with her?"

Bai Sui'an curled his lips and naturally acknowledged Ye Lingche's identity: "After I saved her, I saw that she was homeless, so I married her. What do you think our relationship is now?"

"Who knows if what you said is true!"

"Two years ago, she was nearly sold to a brothel, and I saved her in Huzhou."

"It's you!" Weng Lai began to struggle. "Let me go and take me to see His Highness!"

"Not urgent."

Bai Sui'an pulled over a wooden stool and asked Weng to sit down.

"I have received the bounty order. I must take you to the yamen tonight." Bai Suian said calmly.

"Then I also want to see His Highness first!"

Bai Sui'an pressed Weng Lai's shoulder and whispered, "First, take out the stolen goods and help me complete the bounty order and get the reward. I will naturally find an opportunity for you to meet the princess in the future."

Weng Lai stood up excitedly: "What if you get the money and run away, where will I find you?"

He knew the relationship between himself and the government office, and even if he was arrested and sent in, he would be released unharmed in the end.

But in the current situation, he couldn't completely trust the man in front of him, whom he didn't even know what he looked like.

She looks short and thin. How can such a person marry their prince?

Hitting someone still hurts so much, what if His Highness is bullied in his home...

Weng Lai didn't dare to think further.

"That's easy. Just send out some simple bounties and I'll come out and claim them."

Bai Sui'an stretched out three fingers and rubbed them together. "If you have money, I'll come forward."

He looked like a money-grubber, which made Weng Lai's teeth itch: "You are so poor, yet you still want to marry our prince!"

"In order to let her enjoy happiness, you can give me some more silver."

Weng Lai:?

"Okay, take out the stolen goods, and then go with me to the government office to get the silver."

"I can take out the Night Pearl, but the medicine is gone."

"The medicine is gone?" Bai Sui'an asked, "Where did you use it?"

"What does it have to do with you!" Weng Lai said angrily, "You just need to return His Highness to us intact. Don't ask questions that you shouldn't ask."

Bai Sui'an smiled mysteriously, then suddenly raised his leg and kicked the man off the wooden bench, saying coldly, "Have you forgotten that I'm the one interrogating you now?"

The stool fell over, and Weng Lai flew one meter away, covering his chest and spitting out blood.

"you!"

"What's wrong?" Bai Sui'an walked to Weng Lai and looked down at him.

He spoke slowly, word by word, "I told you, if you answer my questions honestly, I can spare your life."

"I can't say I just said a few words to you in a friendly manner and you forget how hard I hit you just now, right?"

The eyebrows and eyes on the mask were always smiling. No matter what expression the lower half of Bai Sui'an's face had, in Weng Lai's eyes, Bai Sui'an was an erratic and weird person with unpredictable moods.

After hiding in Qianheng Country for a long time, Weng Lai finally found out the whereabouts of His Highness before taking action. He would definitely not let go of this opportunity.

He gritted his teeth and quickly pulled the flare apart. Even if he was lying on the ground, as long as he found the right angle, he could still launch the flare into the sky.

Bai Sui'an reacted quickly and kicked him in the wrist when he took out the flare.

The pulled flare was kicked away and shot straight into the haystack in the yard, igniting sporadic fires.

Bai Sui'an knelt on one knee, grabbed Weng Lai's neck with one hand, and said, "Tell me the base and your plan, or I will kill you. No one will know that you got the news from Gong Sui'an tonight."

With his throat pinched, Weng Lai was unable to speak. He opened his mouth wide and struggled to utter a single word: "I, say..."

"Speak." Bai Suian let go.

This time she didn't let Weng Lai sit and talk. She pressed her knee against Weng Lai's chest, ready to strike again at any time.

Weng Lai was breathing heavily. The flare was gone. If he really died, no one would know what happened tonight.

So he must go back alive.

You don't have to reveal everything, just the information that can keep you alive.

"I'm a free-range person. I don't know where the base is. Every move is notified by an informant."

"The plan...is to help Mr. Wan get rid of that consumptive bastard, get a list of suppliers, and get them to provide us with medicinal materials."
