The Flourishing Era of Female Merchants

"What? You're all family anyway, so you should discuss things properly. I'm a reasonable person, I've just told you what I want, and the rest is up to you to decide whose life goes to you!" Yan Bing's mischievous glint grew even stronger.

As soon as Yan Bing finished speaking, An Yuefeng's eyes widened in surprise. He immediately pointed at An Xinlian and Yu Fangfei, "Their lives, you can take any of their lives, I just want to leave this place."

An Xinlian and Yu Fangfei's faces darkened. In that instant, Yu Fangfei and An Xinlian pointed at each other simultaneously and said in unison, "Let her life be spared!"

Yan Bing looked at these three people who should have been family, a sarcastic smile playing on her lips, when she heard a voice ring out in the hall.

"Is Master An really just leaving? Will he have no regrets if he just leaves like this?" The woman's voice was cold and sarcastic.

An Yuefeng, An Xinlian, and Yu Fangfei were all taken aback, not because of the content of the words, but because they were familiar with the voice.

Tranquility? How could this be? How could this sound like Tranquility's voice?

The group looked in the direction from which the sound came, trying to figure out what it was. However, a screen blocked their view, but the sound still echoed in their ears.

Wasn't An Mi killed by this bandit leader? How can we still hear her voice here now?

"What's going on?" An Yuefeng grew increasingly uneasy. Looking at the woman in red who was leisurely drinking her wine, he suddenly realized something. "Where is An Mi's body? Since you killed An Mi, where is her body?"

He was really too careless. He didn't even confirm this beforehand. It was An Xinlian's deception that made him lose his composure.

Yan Bing chuckled, "A corpse? A perfectly healthy person, where would a corpse come from?"

An Xinlian's face turned deathly pale, and she staggered. "No, you said you killed An Mi and the King of Bohai. They're dead, that's why I agreed to raise the money for you. You're lying to us, aren't you?"

"Heh, lie to you? Yes, I was lying to you, but not now, but all before." Yan Bing put down her wine glass, stood up abruptly, and walked over step by step. "If I didn't lie to you, how could I have led you all here? You all heard that sound just now, and you still don't believe me? It seems I have to let you see it with your own eyes to convince you!"

As she spoke, her gaze fell upon the screen, and her smile deepened. She strode toward the screen and said, "Mi'er, come out quickly. They seem eager to see you! Fine, let them see if you are really alive, so they can be at ease."

As soon as she finished speaking, a figure emerged from behind the screen. An Yuefeng, Yu Fangfei, and An Xinlian finally saw that face and were stunned. It was her! An Mi!

Not only An Mi, but also the King of Bohai was following behind her!

At this moment, An Mi smiled faintly, while Bai Yi remained expressionless. However, in the eyes of An Yuefeng and the other two, he was more frightening than a demon.

"You...you guys..." As An Mi and Bai Yi walked towards the three of them, An Yuefeng subconsciously stepped back. Alive? They really weren't dead yet?

"Sorry to disappoint you? We didn't die." An Mi spoke softly, glancing at the terrified expressions on the three faces. "Not only did we not die, but we also received a pleasant surprise. You guys are really something, going to such lengths to take my life. How can I ever thank you enough?"

An Yuefeng's heart skipped a beat, and he quickly forced a smile. "Mi'er, you've misunderstood. This has nothing to do with me. It was Xinlian's idea. She said that once you die, everything under your name will belong to the An family. I was tempted and made a mistake..."

"Father, you're talking nonsense. You clearly agreed with it too." An Xinlian didn't expect An Yuefeng to push everything onto her so quickly. Since he was so heartless, then she wouldn't be so ruthless either. "An Mi, I admit I'm jealous of you, but this whole thing was orchestrated by Father. I was just being used by him."

"Oh? What should we do? Who should I believe?" An Mi smiled faintly. Did they really think she was a fool? They all wished she were dead. Now, shirking responsibility only made them look more selfish!

Meeting the flustered looks in An Yuefeng and An Xinlian's eyes, An Mi continued, "Unfortunately, I don't seem to trust anyone!"

An Xinlian and An Yuefeng were startled, "Mi'er..."

What should I do now?

"Heh, Mi'er, tell me, how do you want to deal with them? Cutting off that woman's finger that day wasn't enough. She wanted your life, so she should pay with her own to make it satisfying!" Yan Bing snorted coldly.

"Yes, these three are no good. They've run into us today, we can't let them get away with it." The second-in-command chimed in, his rough voice sending chills down everyone's spine.

"No, this is all a misunderstanding, An Mi. I am your father. You can't do anything so rebellious!" An Yuefeng panicked. These bandits were capable of anything!

"You old scoundrel, how dare you commit such a heinous crime? You killed Mi'er, your daughter, and you still have the nerve to talk about heinous crimes? Hmph, don't forget, among those you wanted to kill was the King of Bohai. Do you know what a terrible crime that is?" Yan Bing roared. "Men, tie these people up! Today, I'm going to have my revenge!"

"Please calm down, please calm down..." Yu Fangfei panicked, "The grievances have their perpetrators, the debts have their debtors, this has nothing to do with me!"

Seeing several bandits approaching them, Yu Fangfei took a step back in fear. She was genuinely afraid of those fierce-looking bandits, and she would be too unwilling to be implicated!

But having already fallen into the wolf's den, how could she possibly expect to escape unscathed?

An Mi gave a cold laugh but didn't say anything more. Bai Yi, on the other hand, raised the corner of his mouth and shouted sharply, "Tie them all up!"

Upon receiving the order, the subordinates immediately grabbed the three men's arms without hesitation. The three men were on high alert, but they had no chance to resist.

They subdued him almost effortlessly, rendering him unable to move. An Yuefeng did resist a little, but because of that resistance, he was stomped hard on the ground by the second-in-command, making him even more unable to move.

"Let me go... let me go now!" An Yuefeng tried to get up, but when had he ever suffered such humiliation being trampled underfoot?

He glared fiercely at the calm and composed An Mi, his anger rising even higher. It seemed that all the humiliation he had suffered was caused by An Mi, who was truly a scourge!
