My White and Rich Beautiful CEO Wife

Whoosh...

In that instant, it was as if time itself had stopped.

Only a streak of snowy white cold light flashed across everyone's pupils.

At such close range, with Pei Luoyan giving it his all, no one believed Li Xiaozu would survive.

Not only did Yan Mingyu's complexion turn pale, her delicate body trembling slightly, even Qin Yu's heart was beating violently.

His eyes were fixed on Pei Luoyan, uncertain whether his plan would be successful.

"Thud, thud..."

The next second, something unexpected happened.

Pei Luoyan, as if drunk, staggered and, instead of killing Li Xiaozu, he collapsed onto the ground with a thud.

"Sister Yan?"

Red Bee and Ye Xinyue were both stunned.

What was going on?

"This..."

Yan Mingyu also opened her eyes wide, showing a surprised and delighted expression.

Li Xiaozu was unharmed?

"That... Qin... you... you..."

Pei Luoyan's eyes were almost bursting with fury, as if flames would shoot out. He knew it was Qin Yu's doing, but he couldn't fathom how he had managed it.

To make him so weak without any prior notice.

"Oh, I learnt from you. Poisoning, huh? Did you really think you were the only one who knew how?"

Qin Yu shrugged and said.

His grandfather had been an old traditional medicine practitioner for most of his life; what kind of drugs could he not formulate?

That morning when he left the hospital, he went to the suburbs to seek his grandfather's help to concoct a kind of drug that was harmless alone but toxic when combined.

One portion was placed in the brocade pouch, hanging on Li Xiaozu's neck, the other was smeared on his own hand.

This was why when Red Bee checked Li Xiaozu earlier, she was not poisoned. And when they made the exchange at the end, Qin Yu insisted on supporting Li Xiaozu because he wanted the two drugs to mix and create toxicity.

Initially, he hadn't thought of this trick. It was Pei Luoyan's own act of poisoning and abducting Yan Mingyu and Tang Xuanwu that sparked the idea, copying what he saw.

When it came to an understanding of drugs, who could surpass his own grandfather?

In order to get Pei Luoyan to take the bait, not even Li Xiaozu knew about this plan. Otherwise, any unusual behavior would certainly ruin everything.

"You... bastard..."

Pei Luoyan glared at Qin Yu with a murderous look; if looks could kill, Qin Yu would have been minced meat.

"Qin Yu..."

Yan Mingyu bit her lip, her emotions in turmoil. She hadn't expected her bodyguard to create a miracle once again.

He saved her and preserved Li Xiaozu's life.

"Miss Yan, heh heh, I'm just an employee, it's my duty!"

Qin Yu grinned.

As long as his beautiful wife was unharmed, any effort was worth it.

"Fine, Qin, I admit defeat! Do what you will with me, kill or maim, I'll accept it!"

Pei Luoyan was indeed tough . Having been in this business for so long, she had long understood one thing: when you set out to kill someone, you must be prepared to be killed in return.

Some Jianghu Brother: This I'm familiar with...

"Haha, killing someone is illegal, and I am a law-abiding citizen. Remember I said before that I have two particularly sleazy friends who happen to be interested in you? I'll hand you over to them for a night. What do you think they'll do to you? Then, I'll throw you to the police and let the law deal with you!"

Qin Yu said with a slight smile.

"You dare!"

Pei Luoyan's pretty face showed a touch of panic.

"Whether I dare or not, you'll find out soon enough!"

Qin Yu finished speaking, walked over to Li Xiaozu, and helped him into the car first. Then he took several ropes from the trunk – the same ones used to tie up the Liu Family members a few days ago; he hadn't expected they'd come in handy again.

"That... Brother Qin!"

Tang Xuanwu chose his words carefully, addressing Qin Yu with considerable respect.

"Young Master Tang, what can I do for you?"

Qin Yu asked with a tone neither cold nor warm.

"Could you... let me handle Pei Luoyan? This way, I'll owe you a favor!"

Tang Xuanwu had been humiliated by Pei Luoyan quite badly, almost to the point of soiling his pants, and now that Pei Luoyan had fallen into Qin Yu's hands, naturally, he wanted to come over and have a good venting.

"Qin, you mustn't agree!"

Pei Luoyan panicked even more.

She knew very well what she had done to Tang Xuanwu and was also well aware of how these powerful families dealt with people. If she really fell into Tang Xuanwu's hands, her life would be worse than death.

"Then beg me!"

Qin Yu raised his dense eyebrows slightly, and said with a somewhat playful tone.

"You... okay, Qin Yu, I'm begging you!"

Pei Luoyan's face was extremely embarrassed, and she had lost all her previous arrogance and pride.

"Pei Luoyan, actually, I still prefer your defiant attitude from the beginning!"

After his sarcastic remark, Qin Yu then looked at Tang Xuanwu and said, "I'm sorry, Young Master Tang, but I promised my two sleazy brothers that if we caught Pei Luoyan, they could have her for one night!"

"Uhh..."

Tang Xuanwu's expression was a bit awkward, but he couldn't really say much either.

"Phew..."

Pei Luoyan visibly sighed with relief.

Having been walking the Jianghu since she was sixteen, she had a wealth of life experience and trusted her judgment; Qin Yu was definitely an extremely upright person.

Being in his hands was far more comforting than being in Tang Xuanwu's.

"Oh, right, Pei Luoyan, I have something to ask you!"

As if Qin Yu thought of something, he took out his mobile phone, turned on the video recording function, aimed it at Pei Luoyan, and asked, "Who invited you to come to the East Sea to assassinate Mr. Li this time?"

"I can't tell you. Betraying an employer is a big taboo in the assassin line!"

Pei Luoyan shook her head.

"Hehe, I know it was Liu Yupan from the Liu Family, but suspicion can't serve as evidence; I need you to tell me personally. Now that you've fallen into my hands, do you still expect to work as an assassin in the future? Perhaps, if you cooperate a bit, you could suffer a little less!"

Qin Yu said, smilingly.

"Yes, it was Liu Yupan from the Liu Family!"

A voice rang out, and it was Red Bee, who stood behind Pei Luoyan. Then, she whispered to Pei Luoyan, "I'm sorry, Sister Yan, I did it for the good of everyone. We have no more cards to play!"

"Hmph..."

Pei Luoyan let out a cold snort.

"All right, we'll settle our accounts after we get back. Come, stick out your hands!"

Qin Yu, holding a rope, walked over to Pei Luoyan and the others.

However, just as he was about to tie them up, Ye Xinyue spoke up, "Qin Yu, right? Could I have a word with Yan Mingyu alone?"

"No!"

Qin Yu refused decisively.

Am I an idiot? If I let her talk to Yan Mingyu alone, what if she takes Yan Mingyu hostage? Wouldn't I be shooting myself in the foot?

"You can rest assured, I won't do anything to harm Mingyu. I swear..."

Ye Xinyue raised her hand, her eyes looking very sincere.

"Qin Yu..."

Yan Mingyu clenched her teeth; from the time she was taken until now, this "Pei Luoyan" really hadn't hurt her, and at times even seemed to unintentionally protect her.

Additionally, that strange feeling she'd had before always made her feel like they've met before. Perhaps, this was the best opportunity to clear things up.

"I trust her!"

After finishing her sentence, Yan Mingyu walked up to Ye Xinyue, "Let's talk over there!"

"Okay!"

"Hey..."

Qin Yu scratched his head, but also knew that Yan Mingyu was a woman whose word was law.

He couldn't well stop her and watched helplessly as Yan Mingyu and Ye Xinyue disappeared into the bushes.
