My Wife, The Ice Queen President

Chapter 349: Chapter 0348: Poison (Part 1)_1
 

Wu Lizhen resigned herself to closing her eyes.

In this life, her husband was her heaven and earth; she never refused him anything because she felt that being able to marry a man like Murong Feng was the fortune of her previous life.

No matter what, she could not imagine her exemplary husband doing such a thing.

Suddenly, her face changed drastically because she sensed something different.

“You are not Brother Feng,” Wu Lizhen screamed.

Ha ha ha!

Hundreds-Transformations laughed unrestrainedly.

“Realizing it now, isn’t it a bit late?”

Suddenly, he cried out in agony.

Wu Lizhen bit down hard on his shoulder, biting off a chunk of flesh, blood profusely spilling out.

In pain, Hundreds-Transformations shouted loudly, and in the chaos, Wu Lizhen broke free and ran away.

“Stinky woman, you dare to bite me.”

Hundreds-Transformations chased after her, pinned Wu Lizhen to the ground, and relentlessly slapped her several times until he had her dazed.

“I’ll kill you, stinky woman.”

Wu Lizhen’s screams were continual, and the sound made Murong Ruyin’s heart bleed.

It was a pity that her hands and feet were all tied up, making it impossible for her to break free.

Suddenly, her gaze fell upon a bottle with black liquid on the table.

Murong Ruyin studied medicine and knew a great deal about poison. This vial of poison was blood-sealing and fatal.

Originally resigned to death, Murong Ruyin now harbored a desire to live. She saw that her mother had bitten a wound on Hundreds-Transformations’ shoulder while being violated.

As long as she could spit the poison there, he would only have one way to go—death.

While Hundreds-Transformations was violating her mother, Murong Ruyin struggled to get up, picking up the bottle with her mouth.

Unfortunately, it was impossible to unscrew the cap with her mouth alone.

Quick-thinking, Murong Ruyin clamped the bottle between her legs and bit open the cap of the poison vial, then held the poison in her mouth and jumped off the bed toward Hundreds-Transformations.

Seeing Murong Ruyin jumping over, Hundreds-Transformations was not worried at all; instead, he laughed, “Do you find it exciting? Soon it will be your turn.”

Just as Hundreds-Transformations was about to push Murong Ruyin away, suddenly she lunged at him, spraying a mouthful of black liquid onto his shoulder.

Feeling a numbing sensation on his neck, Hundreds-Transformations was shocked and quickly jumped up, bellowing angrily, “What the hell did you spray on me?”

“Go ask Lord Yama!” Murong Ruyin’s face was sinister.

Hundreds-Transformations lifted his hand, ready to give Murong Ruyin a fierce slap when suddenly he felt numbness in his hands and then his feet.

His heart was seized by excruciating pain, and in less than a minute he collapsed on the floor, convulsing, dead beyond any doubt.

Murong Ruyin desperately spat out saliva, trying to get rid of any residual poison in her mouth, fearful of any leftovers.

This poison, acting via contact with blood, wouldn’t affect her as long as she had no injuries in her mouth, even if held there.

“Mom, quick, untie me,” Murong Ruyin urged urgently.

Only then did Wu Lizhen come to her senses, went over to the table, took out a pair of scissors, and cut the ropes that tied Murong Ruyin.

After being released, Murong Ruyin rushed to the washroom, washed her mouth thoroughly to cleanse it of the poison, and then came out.

Just as she exited, the scene before her eyes made her scream in anger.

Her mother was lying on the ground, her wrist slit open.

The black poison was slowly seeping into her bloodstream.

“Mom, no!” Murong Ruyin cried out.

“Daughter, I’m sorry.”

Wu Lizhen’s body fell down.

…

Three cars were headed toward Y City.

Along the way, there were two groups that launched surprise attacks, both of which were dealt with by Ye Xiong and Wu Wang.

After two and a half hours, the car finally arrived at the Murong Family’s home.

“Hurry inside and see how Ruyin and Lizhen are doing?” Murong Feng urged anxiously.

Ye Xiong nodded, pulled out his dagger, and rushed in.

In the hall, there sat a woman with a hood covering her face, her features indiscernible.

On the ground beside her lay a man and a woman, the man bearing a striking resemblance to Murong Feng, his body entirely blackened; the woman was beautiful, but regrettably, half of her body had turned black as well.

The condition of the two made it clear that they had been poisoned to death.

“What happened here?”

“Who are you?”

“We are from the Dragon Group, escorting Mr. Murong Feng home.”

Murong Ruyin stood up and rushed out.

Seeing Murong Feng being supported by others, she hurried over and grasped his hand, anxiously asking, “Dad, what happened to your foot?”

“It’s a long story, let’s go inside and talk.”

When Murong Feng entered and saw his wife’s body on the ground, he was stunned.

“Mom knew that this guy was an impostor, she poisoned him, and both of them ended up dead…” Murong Ruyin whispered tearfully.

Suddenly, the surroundings were engulfed in sorrow.

…

These family matters were not Ye Xiong’s place to interfere, so he took his squad outside, allowing Murong Feng and his daughter some private time together.

Stepping out of the courtyard and sitting on a stone bench, he couldn’t help but heave a sigh.

Unexpectedly, despite their haste, they were still a step too late.

Fortunately, Murong Ruyin was unharmed.

“Master, I checked just now, that fake Murong Feng had a bite mark on his neck; the poison seems to have entered there. And that Wu Lizhen, there was a wound on her wrist; the poison entered there,” An Le reported.

“What are you trying to say?”

“Murong Ruyin is clearly lying; the fake Murong Feng wasn’t killed by Wu Lizhen’s poison,” An Le said.

“Murong Ruyin is covering up the truth for a reason, sometimes the truth is very cruel, the more you know, the worse it is,” Ye Xiong said.

“Master, you are quite the optimist,” An Le remarked.

“It’s not that I’m optimistic, but that every family has its skeletons in the closet, not to be shared with outsiders.”

Just then, Ye Xiong noticed Duanmu Linglong sitting under a tree, sitting foolishly, completely lost in a daze.

He thought for a moment, then walked over and stood beside her.

Duanmu Linglong turned her head and glanced at him, wanting to say something but unable to find the words.

“You can talk to me about anything, I can be your listener, and it will feel much better to let it out,” Ye Xiong said.

“Suddenly, I feel very lost; I don’t know how to face him the next time we meet,” Duanmu Linglong said sadly.

“The one who should be afraid to face anything is your father, for he is the one who has done the wrongdoing.”

“After all, he is my father,” she replied.

“A man who sends people to kill his own daughter, does he have the right to be a father?”

“He was forced; I don’t believe he would send someone to kill me. It must have been that Leader of the Beast Organization, he’s the one who did it.”

“Even if it wasn’t him who sent someone, then why didn’t he stop it? How could he let someone kill his own daughter?”

“Perhaps he had his own unavoidable, dire reasons.”

“No matter what the reasons, they cannot hide his cowardly nature. Why can’t he be like Murong Feng, a real man?”

Duanmu Linglong fell silent at Ye Xiong’s words.

Her own thoughts and Ye Xiong’s were exactly the same.

“I haven’t even asked your name, have I?”
