I started out with seven husbands, and I worked hard to support my family while crying.

However, the other party's eyes were rolled back, and there was blood in his mouth and neck.

It happened so fast that even Zhu Wen, who was lying on the ground with blood trickling from the corner of his mouth, couldn't see exactly how his opponent made his move.

He said blankly.

"Okay, so fast!"

As Zhu Wen spoke, his pupils dilated and his body involuntarily collapsed to the ground.

Upon seeing this, Pei Yan immediately ordered his men to rescue the people.

After a short while, the other person finally woke up.

Zhu Wen looked at the person in front of him and said in a weak voice.

"Quick, quick, go save her! Madam Fang, she's...she's going that way..."

Before he could finish speaking, he fainted again.

Pei Yan dared not linger. He took two subordinates, mounted a tall horse, and charged towards the bamboo forest ahead.

He was filled with great worry. If he had been a step too late, he didn't know what would have happened to his wife.

At this moment, I had lost all ability to think; there was only one thing on my mind: faster, faster.

His horse neighed loudly.

……

Fang Xiaoxiao was crawling in a haystack.

She knew that if she kept running forward, she would be caught sooner or later, and her soul would probably leave her body before she even got back to the village.

It's better to take a gamble and find a relatively secluded patch of grass to hide in. Maybe Yu Donglei is a fool and won't think of this.

At that moment, a group of people appeared about fifty meters away.

The leader was Yu Donglei, who was wearing a light yellow gauze dress. Her eyes were filled with malice as she pointed at a guard and shouted.

"What are you good for? You can't even catch up with someone."

"Are you all just freeloaders, after we spend so much money to support you all?!"

The man being reprimanded lowered his head and remained silent, likely harboring much resentment.

The maid who had been beaten was now being carried on someone's shoulder.

Yu Donglei snorted coldly and ordered him to throw the person on the ground.

She leaned down and smiled.

"Xiaoman, oh Xiaoman, what can I say to you? I hit you and humiliated you, but it was all for your own good."

"You know, if Fang Xiaoxiao had found out about your nonsense just now, the consequences wouldn't have been good."

“I am a kind-hearted person, but you take my kindness for granted. Isn’t that going too far? Since you are no longer of any use, I think this place is lush with green grass and is a perfect place for you to rest in peace.”

The maid, called Xiaoman, had bruises and swelling on her face, and her eyes were bleeding profusely from the cuts.

Xiao Man knelt on the ground, kowtowing repeatedly, begging her mistress to spare her life.

"Miss, I was wrong, Xiaoman knows she was wrong, please forgive me this time, I will never dare to do it again!"

"Oh... next time? Xiaoman, do you know that you've said 'next time' so many times, but you've never actually done it?"

"Miss, what I hate most is people who don't keep their word. Besides, you have no use to me. In addition, you know a lot of my secrets. Keeping you around is like keeping a menace."

Yu Donglei's expression changed from a smile to a cold one, and she made a throat-slitting gesture towards the guard beside her.

The other party immediately drew his knife, intending to kill the person lying on the ground.

It's the perfect time.

A horse neighed.

"hiss……"

"Xu..."

Pei Yan pulled on the reins, his face cold and stern.

Where is Fang Xiaoxiao?

Upon hearing this, Yu Donglei looked up at the man on horseback, then immediately adopted a delicate and charming expression, speaking in a soft and frail tone.

"Pei Lang, what are you talking about? I don't know."

"Enough with the nonsense! Who is this Pei Lang? Don't call me that!"

Pei Yan showed no respect whatsoever, coldly looking at everyone.

There were four guards in this group, and although they were all quite skilled, they were no match for the secret guards he had brought.

But why isn't the lady in the hands of this group? She must have escaped.

Yu Donglei was not angry at all; instead, she smiled and said...

"Oh dear, Young Master Pei is so fierce! He scared my heart so much that it was pounding in my chest."

"Young Master Pei, why do you insist on humiliating yourself by marrying that penniless good-for-nothing Fang Xiaoxiao? If you were with me, I guarantee you would be dressed in gold and silver and live a life of luxury."

"Besides, how am I any less beautiful than Fang Xiaoxiao? In terms of figure and looks, I, Yu Donglei, am at least one of the most beautiful women in this area."

Pei Yan seemed not to hear, and looked around to see if there was anything unusual, but unfortunately, there was nothing.

At this moment.

Xiao Man, who was originally lying on the ground, took advantage of the moment when everyone was distracted and quickly got up and ran towards the bamboo forest behind her.

Upon seeing this, Yu Donglei immediately spoke up.

"Grab her, dead or alive, that wretched slave. I should have sold her to the butcher back then."

A tall, thin guard accepted the order and quickly went after him.

Three people were left behind to protect the young lady.

Yu Donglei once again put on a pitiful look and walked towards Pei Yan, who had dismounted.

As she walked, she swayed her hips, her round buttocks quite attractive, like red lanterns on a gate, swaying in the wind, very alluring.

Unfortunately, Pei Yan didn't even bother to glance at her. In his eyes, what kind of woman hadn't he seen? There were women ten times more beautiful than her.

But no one could compare to Fang Xiaoxiao in the slightest. There was something about her that he couldn't put into words, which made him want to get closer to her.

Yu Donglei was still unwilling to give up. She walked gracefully to him and spoke softly.

"Young Master Pei, can't you even look at me?"

"I've been thinking about you day and night, I'm almost sick from it."

Pei Yan said coldly.

"Let me tell you, even if you were given to me, I wouldn't even glance at a promiscuous woman like you. Forget about it. There's no way I'll ever go with you in this life, and there's no way I'll ever do what you want."

His words were extremely cold and ruthless, like winter frost piercing the heart.

Even if Yu Donglei was a thick-skinned person, all the affection in her heart crumbled instantly at this moment.

No matter how shameless she was, she felt a surge of anger when faced with someone who had insulted her like this. If she couldn't have him, she would destroy him.

"Alright, very well, Pei Yan, since you've said so, then I have nothing more to say."

"Today, no one will leave here alive. If I, Yu Donglei, can't have the man, Fang Xiaoxiao won't have him either."

As she spoke, she instructed the guards to prepare to take action.

Pei Yan remained expressionless and gave a cold snort.

"You think you can lay a hand on me with the bunch of trash around you? You're just overestimating yourself."

"on!"

At the command, Yu Donglei, who had been quite pleased with herself, instantly turned pale and looked extremely unpleasant.

Her once bright, bell-like eyes now resembled those of a dead fish, utterly devoid of any life.

"This...this is absolutely impossible, impossible!"
