The pampered heiress holds the script and leads her cannon fodder family to a counterattack.

In the original novel, Yan Yuelan's father, Minister Yan Danyang, secretly trained secret guards.

Although the Marquis's residence also had secret guards, these guards were registered with the Emperor and had been formally identified, so their numbers were not particularly large.

Yan Danyang's secret guards, numbering in the hundreds, were not registered with the Emperor and were set up privately.

However, the novel does not provide a detailed description of the situation of the secret guards, such as how they were recruited or where they were usually kept. Qin Wanying knew nothing about this.

Judging from the attire of these men in black, it is basically consistent with the description of the Yan family's secret guards in the novel.

Qin Wanying knew that the female lead was getting restless.

He felt he was a threat to her and wanted to get rid of her beforehand.

However, he miraculously survived.

We must seize this opportunity to retaliate.

Qin Wanying returned to the manor and reported the day's events to her father in detail.

Qin Ye was terrified upon hearing this.

In fact, Qin Yezhong, a veteran of many battles, had seen all kinds of situations.

However, Qin Wanying is his youngest daughter, whom he lost and then found again.

He valued this daughter very much.

He couldn't accept the slightest mishap to his daughter.

When Qin Wanying sent someone to invite the secret guards to pick her up, Qin Yezhong specially sent many secret guards over. Now he couldn't help but feel glad that his decision was correct.

Seeing his daughter return to him unharmed, he almost burst into tears.

Qin Wanying told her father why she hadn't reported it to the authorities immediately.

If we report it to the authorities, they probably won't find anything, and the process is complicated and time-consuming.

The enemy has a living bodyguard; we can use him as a breakthrough point and perhaps turn the tide.

Qin Yezhong thought that with so many people dead, it wouldn't be right not to report it.

So he told Qin Wanying, "By tonight at the latest. If we haven't found anything by tonight, we'll report it to the authorities."

Qin Wanying nodded.

By tonight, she should have enough time to find their hideout.

The secret room of the Qin mansion.

The man in black captured by Qin Wanying was named Liang Chen.

Actually, this is not his real name, but a pseudonym given to him by his master after he became a bodyguard.

Liangchen was asleep when he suddenly felt a bucket of cold water being splashed on his face.

He opened his eyes, and the biting cold on his face made him feel very uncomfortable, and his whole body felt numb and tingly.

He tried to move his body and found himself tied to a cross while standing.

Looking around, I found myself in a dark and damp room with no windows, only a few lamps hanging on the walls that barely illuminated the darkness.

The man who had just splashed water on himself was expressionless. After he finished, he stood respectfully to the side, holding the basin in one hand, revealing the woman behind him.

The woman was very young, only fifteen or sixteen years old, and had a very beautiful appearance.

Liang Chen was startled.

Isn't this the fortune teller we ordered to assassinate?

He didn't know the woman's true identity; he was ordered to kill her, so he did.

However, the current situation is extremely bad.

Not only did his assassination attempt fail, but he was also captured.

He knew he was finished.

The order above states that if the mission fails, the individual must immediately commit suicide.

If he didn't commit suicide, his fate would be even worse.

These secret guards would all be infected with a curse by their superiors.

This kind of Gu (a type of poison) is connected to a person's mind. Once the person who has been infected with the Gu is about to do something treacherous, it will take effect, causing extreme pain, and eventually leading to death from intestinal perforation.

He had personally witnessed how a bodyguard who disobeyed orders died.

That person was on good terms with him and was one of the few friends in his bodyguard team.

And this person, right in front of him, lay on the ground in agony, howling, curling up, writhing, veins bulging on his forehead, sweat pouring down his face, and finally dying slowly in agony.

This incident left a very deep impression on him.

He had nightmares for several days in a row.

After that, he never dared to disobey any of his master's orders again, and he would carry out any task seriously.

Now, his mission has failed, and he has been captured.

For him now, death is the best outcome.

He tried to feel under his tongue, and found that the poison he had hidden there beforehand had been removed.

If that's the case, then the only option is to bite off my tongue and commit suicide.

Just as he was about to speak, the girl in front of him spoke up.

He only said one sentence.

“I know where your sister is.”

Liang Chen was stunned. He stared wide-eyed at the girl in front of him, wondering if he had misheard.

"You heard me right, I know where your sister is," Qin Wanying repeated.

"How did you know?" Liangchen asked hurriedly.

Qin Wanying smiled and said, "Have you forgotten what I do?"

Liangchen then remembered that the girl in front of him could tell fortunes.

Moreover, because her fortune-telling skills were extremely superb, her divination was priceless.

Perhaps that's why her master wanted to kill her?

"Your name is Liang Chen, and your real name is Qiu Jun."

Liang Chen was stunned again.

Liangchen is a name that is often used; it is his code name as a bodyguard.

However, many people no longer use the name Qiu Jun.

That was his childhood name.

Liang Chen was shocked.

He was certain that he did not carry anything that could identify him.

However, the girl was able to calculate his name.

He knew some fortune tellers, some accurate and some not, but he had never heard of any fortune teller who could predict a person's name.

Who exactly is this girl?

Liang Chen felt increasingly helpless.

They actually wanted to assassinate such a remarkable person.

They're so clever and resourceful, how could I possibly succeed in assassinating them?

He recalled the girl's panicked expression when he assassinated her.

Now I realize that all of this was just the girl's scheme.

She knew perfectly well that they would come to kill her, yet she still got involved and pretended to be flustered, probably just to deceive her master!

Now that he has been captured, it must have been part of the girl's plan.

That's absolutely terrifying!

Qin Wanying was unaware that she had been "transformed" in Liang Chen's mind, automatically imagined to be invincible.

"Your younger sister's name is Qiu He, and she is two years younger than you."

“You had no parents, and you and your sister made a living by scavenging. Later, your sister went missing, and you were also captured and made into a bodyguard.”

Liang Chen's gaze froze upon hearing the name Qiu He.

He never told anyone this name; he just silently recited it in his heart every day.

This is a secret deep in his heart.

For so many years, he has prayed every day, hoping that his sister could have a better life.

I hope I can find my sister someday.

While he was on missions, he kept an eye out for girls around his age, hoping that his younger sister could appear by his side.

Now, he found himself captured, and the girl who had captured him heard his sister's name from her mouth.
