After being reborn, I hugged the villainous boss tightly.

After everything was settled, Ye Zhuxi went back to find Ye Xiaoran and told him about her plan.

"Can I trust him?" He frowned, somewhat uncertain.

"can!"

Ye Zhuxi nodded slightly, glanced at the others around her, and asked softly, "What did you find?"

"..."

Ye Xiaoran gestured for her to look at a side room behind him, opened his mouth and whispered, "Explosives!"

Ye Zhuxi was a little taken aback. She frowned and said, "Explosives??"

As soon as those two words were uttered, she immediately raised her hand to cover her mouth, staring at him in shock and disbelief.

However, after the initial shock, she came up with another idea.

Although Nightwind Village has a very advantageous location, with mountains and water, a river right outside the door, and steep mountain walls behind it, she had observed that although it was a good place, it had a major drawback.

If the mountains behind are carved out, this location will be exposed, and the claim that it is easy to defend and difficult to attack will no longer hold true.

As everyone knows, one of the reasons why Nightwind Village has always been so difficult to conquer is because of its difficult terrain. If an alternative route were to be built, the outcome would be much more uncertain.

Seeing the smile in her eyes, Ye Xiaoran guessed what she was thinking.

"..."

That evening, everyone was happily drinking and singing, laughing and joking around the campfire, creating a joyous atmosphere.

Ye Xiaoran, holding a wine glass, got into a brawl with the others.

After only a few drinks, his face turned red and he looked like he was about to vomit. The people drinking with him laughed at him.

"I thought you were some kind of tough guy, but you've only had a few drinks and you're already looking like this!"

Ye Xiaoran wasn't annoyed and joked with everyone, "Haha, after I throw up... I can still drink..."

Seeing his unsteady gait, the man who had spoken earlier shook his head helplessly and looked at Ye Zhuxi, who was standing quietly to the side.

"Your man is so drunk, you should take him out to rest and sober up, so he doesn't get into trouble if he keeps drinking!"

Upon hearing this, Ye Zhuxi quickly reached out to help Ye Xiaoran up, her face filled with anger: "You bastard, if you can't drink, then don't drink! Do you want to die?!"

Ye Xiaoran impatiently brushed away her outstretched hand, saying disdainfully, "Who do you think you are? I'll drink however I want, it's none of your business!"

"..."

Ye Zhuxi was pushed away. She crossed her arms, frowned, and coldly watched him go on his drunken rampage.

Seeing this, the man who had spoken touched his nose somewhat embarrassedly, then looked at Ye Xiaoran, signaling him to coax him.

Unexpectedly, Ye Xiaoran seemed not to see his signal, picked up the wine cup and drank another large bowl of wine, then wiped his mouth arrogantly.

"I've spoiled this woman too much. I'll see what she can do to me today!"

"..."

Ye Zhuxi was furious. She glared at him fiercely, then got up and left.

The man felt rather helpless when he saw that she had really left.

"Brother, your wife has run away, aren't you going to chase after her?"

Ye Xiaoran waved his hand, looking indifferent: "It's nothing. I'm just going to teach her a lesson today. She's been so lawless all day long!"

"..."

Although he said that, his frequent turning back betrayed his anxiety.

After a while, seeing that the woman had really left, he said worriedly, "I'll go check on her!"

After saying that, he got up and walked towards the place where Ye Zhuxi had left.

It's normal for couples to argue, and the man had no suspicions. Instead, he told Ye Xiaoran, "Women are easy to coax, so don't rush back."

……

In the bridal chamber, Qu Qing, dressed in her wedding gown, was bowing her head and waiting for the groom to arrive.

After a long while, the door was pushed open, and Mu Feng, reeking of alcohol, walked in. His gaze was fixed on the bride, his eyes burning with passion.

Qu Qing felt the veil on her head being lifted by the man, and when she looked up, she met his affectionate gaze, which was full of naked possessiveness.

She wasn't afraid; her gaze met his.

Looking at her rosy cheeks and alluring, watery eyes, the man couldn't help but swallow hard. He raised his hand, lifted her delicate chin, and couldn't resist leaning down to kiss her.

"..."

Qu Qing did not back down; instead, she reached out and wrapped her arms around his neck, gently responding to him.

Mu Feng felt her response and was so excited he couldn't express it. He picked her up and sat her on his lap, deepening the kiss.

"..."

Just as the two were locked in a passionate kiss, Mu Feng suddenly felt a sharp pain in his chest. He widened his eyes, released the woman in his arms, and looked at his chest.

Qu Qing was holding a hairpin and stabbing it into his chest. He was stunned for a moment. Qu Qing increased the force and stabbed it in a little further.

"No~"

He raised his hand to cover his bleeding chest and yanked the woman in his arms to the ground.

Seeing the woman fall to the ground, his eyes instantly turned vicious, his face turned ashen. He endured the sharp pain in his chest, bent down and grabbed Qu Qing by the neck, angrily questioning, "You want to kill me?"

"Hahaha"

Qu Qing was amused by his question.

"Mu Feng, what makes you think I'd still be with you after you killed my parents?!"

Mu Feng frowned, his voice icy: "Didn't you say you loved me?"

"You raped me, imprisoned me, and even forced me to do things I didn't want to do. Where do you get the confidence that I will continue to love you?!"

Seeing Qu Qing's pitiful eyes and her alternating crying and laughing expressions, Mu Feng's face stiffened.

He suddenly released his grip on her neck, his eyes filled with malice.

“You should know what happened to those who tried to kill me. I love you, and although I won’t use those punishments on you…” He paused for a moment, then continued, “But I also have ways to make you wish you were dead!”

"If you don't want to love me anymore, then hate me forever!"

Qu Qing was not afraid. She looked up and met his murderous gaze: "Hahaha, Mu Feng, do you think I will give you this chance again?"

After she finished speaking, dark red blood slowly trickled from the corner of her mouth.

"what?"

Mu Feng was startled and hurriedly bent down to help her up, but as soon as he got close, a piercing pain spread from the bottom of his heart, and he also spat out a mouthful of blood.

"..."

Seeing the smile on Qu Qing's lips, Mu Feng instantly realized that he had been ambushed!

the other side.

After coming out, Ye Xiaoran's drunken expression changed instantly, and he immediately returned to his previous state.

The two arrived at the location where the explosives were placed, exchanged glances, and Ye Zhuxi quietly stepped back, letting Ye Xiaoran go in and deal with the guards.

Afterwards, the two carried out a large box of explosives and quickly took it to the back of the mountain...

"Bang~~"

With a loud bang, the back mountain was blown open.

"careful!"

Ye Zhuxi was unaware of the explosives' destructive power and was nearly blown away before she could hide. Fortunately, Ye Xiaoran tackled her to the ground, saving them both from certain death.

Hearing the loud noise outside, Qu Qing smiled with relief, knowing that Ye Zhuxi and the others had already begun their operation.

With her inner turmoil resolved, she could no longer hold on. More and more blood flowed from the corner of her mouth, and then she collapsed to the ground, slowly closing her eyes.

"Qing'er..."

Ignoring the intense pain coursing through his body, Mu Feng crawled over and picked up Qu Qing, who had already stopped breathing.
