The Return of the Marquis's Daughter

Chapter 53: There is a cause, there is an effect

“If you want to harm someone, you should be prepared like this.

What? You didn't hurt anyone, but instead you blame her for not standing there waiting for you to hurt her?

Who do you think you are? Even the emperor wouldn't dare to speak so arrogantly!

Qin Mengyuan, who had been stunned, suddenly said, "Miss, there's no need to gloat over this misfortune. We've made a mistake and we admit defeat.

Didn't you just come here to see us make a fool of ourselves? Now that you've seen it, you can leave now. You are not welcome here."

Qin Wenlan was very surprised when he heard this. He didn't expect that Qin Mengyuan had some ability to withstand pressure. It seemed that he should not be underestimated.

Why didn’t I notice such a person coming in my previous life?

"What are you talking about? What's there here that's worth my bother? Why would I come all the way here to see you make a fool of yourself? Do I have that much free time?"

After hearing this, Qin Mengyuan quickly looked at Qin Wenlan. The blood in his eyes was still there, but at this moment he looked very calm.

She stared at Qin Wenlan intently and found that his eyes were bright and penetrating, and he really didn't have the slightest intention of laughing at her.

But this made Qin Mengyuan feel even more powerless, "Yes, you are Miss Qin!

Why would you take someone like me seriously? Why would you come all the way here to see me make a fool of myself?

What she hated even more than being looked down upon was being ignored so completely.

Qin Wenlan's meaning just now was very clear. If they hadn't harmed others first, she, Miss Qin, would never have thought of them at all.

Qin Mengyuan's eyes were filled with resentment. "Then you, Miss Qin, can't have come here for nothing, right? Tell me why you came here?"

Qin Wenlan then looked at Qin Mengyuan seriously. Haha, it was more real without any disguise. "It would have saved you a lot of trouble if you had done this earlier."

After she finished speaking, she turned to Aunt Zhao and said, "Aunt Zhao, you should understand why I'm here."

After hearing this, Aunt Zhao avoided the gaze and said nothing. What she said last time was actually just a plan for the future!

Let Qin Wenlan investigate on his own, and then attract the attention of Qin Jiawang and Qin Zhaoshi.

In fact, she had never thought about telling Qin Wenlan the truth herself.

After all, those things are too important. If she really says them out loud, the consequences will be something she cannot bear.

Qin Wenlan certainly understood her plan, so he said with a smile: "It doesn't matter if Aunt Zhao doesn't want to tell me, I can find out anyway.

However, even if you don't tell me, if Qin Zhaoshi and the Qin family find out that you were the one who revealed the matter to me, what do you think the consequences will be?"

Qin Wenlan could certainly go and investigate, but if he could get the whole truth from Aunt Zhao, it would save him a lot of trouble and effort.

Aunt Zhao hadn't anticipated that Qin Wenlan would choose to directly tear his face off with the Qin Marquis's Mansion. She said in horror, "You...you...how could you do that..."

If Qin Zhaoshi and Qin Jiawang knew about this, she would have no chance of survival.

After all, these matters concern everything in the entire Qin Hou Mansion, and she, a concubine, is nothing.

Just as she was daydreaming, she heard Qin Wenlan say in a very firm tone: "What else can't I do or dare not do?"

"Hasn't Aunt Zhao ever thought about this? You should have thought about it when you told me the story."

Aunt Zhao actually did not expect this and underestimated Qin Wenlan, thinking that even if she knew something, she would not investigate it openly.

In her opinion, Qin Wenlan's mother had died long ago, and the Min family was so far away from the capital. As an orphan in the capital, she still had to rely on the Qin Hou Mansion.

So she would never believe that Qin Wenlan would investigate the truth of the past for the sake of a mother he had never even met.

But what if we really find out the truth?

Could she, an orphan girl, dare to fight against the entire Qin Hou Mansion?

After thinking through all the details, she thought that Qin Wenlan's words were just a threat to her.

So he simply shook his head and said, "That's impossible! You're so smart, how could you let something from the past really anger the Qin Zhao family and the Qin family?"

Qin Wenlan said with a smile: "What on earth makes you think that I, Qin Wenlan, would be afraid of Qin Zhaoshi and Qin Jiawang?"

After hearing this, Aunt Zhao looked at her in shock and said, "Don't forget, they are your grandmother and father. You don't really think that with Prince An as your backer, you can be arrogant?

If they don't want this engagement to go through, there are plenty of ways to fix it. You're just taking it for granted, haha."

An unmarried person dares to disregard her parents' home. The word "filial piety" can lead to her death without a burial place.

If Qin Wenlan dares to be associated with unfilial behavior, then she will have no chance of gaining a foothold in the capital. Haha.

Even the Prince An's Mansion might not be willing to marry such a person.

Qin Wenlan said indifferently, "If I knew clearly that my mother was murdered and didn't seek revenge for her, that would be extremely unfilial!

Will the world stand on the side of an orphan like me who avenges her mother, or will it stand on the side of the murderer?"

Aunt Zhao looked at the woman in front of her, who seemed to be discussing what to eat for lunch today with ease. Her face was filled with fear. After a long while, she finally squeezed out a sentence: "Are you crazy?"

The last time she mentioned that incident, she just wanted to give Yu an excuse to willingly deal with Qin Wenlan.

But now, she found that she was extremely wrong. This woman was simply a lunatic. What she said about wanting to avenge the Min family was actually true.

She can even disregard everything for this. This kind of person is the most terrifying existence. How dare she mess with such a woman!

It was just as she said, the old man was looking for death by going to the toilet with a lantern!

After staying for such a long time, Qin Wenlan had lost his patience. He looked at her coldly and said, "You can choose not to say anything, but you have to think clearly. Once you leave, you may not have the chance to speak again in the future."

Qin Zhaoshi is definitely not a good person. Even if Aunt Zhao didn't say anything, how could she be allowed to live peacefully when she knew such a big secret in the Marquis Qin's Mansion?

Besides, Qin Jiawang is a ruthless man who doesn't talk much. How could he allow something that he cannot control to exist?

Aunt Zhao had obviously thought of these things, especially the old pious woman Qin Zhao. She had experienced how kind-looking but cruel she was, even worse than Yu.

When she thought of Qin Zhao's methods, she shuddered in her heart, but she still had no intention of saying it out loud.

At this moment, Qin Mengyuan, who had been silent, suddenly interrupted and said, "Auntie, you'd better speak out. Even if you don't say anything now, no one in the entire Marquis' Mansion will believe you.

After all, only the mouths of the dead are the most reliable. Auntie, are you still insisting on keeping it?"

After Qin Mengyuan finished speaking, she looked at Qin Wenlan with a malicious smile in her eyes, "Besides, I also want to see how far Miss Qin can go."

She no longer had any hope. Since there was no place for her in Marquis Qin's Mansion anymore, then what happened to the Mansion in the future had nothing to do with her.
