Although Shen Qin didn’t believe that Gu Yang was Wuyang, she quickly realized that Gu Yang might use hypnosis to interrogate her. This made her flee urgently.
After all, being a hypnotist was a crucial, though not sole, criterion for being Wuyang. If Gu Yang weren’t a hypnotist, then Gu Jin and the others wouldn’t be so convinced of her identity.
Shen Qin knew her hasty exit would raise suspicion among the sharp minds in the room, but she deemed it better than facing direct questioning.
In the private room, Gu Jin and the others quickly surmised the reason for Shen Qin’s abrupt departure.
Someone kicked her in the neck. She felt a sharp pain and fainted.
“This kid died just like that?” A short youth nudged Beiting Huang with his foot and spat on her. “She really can’t take a beating!”
“Let’s see if there’s anything valuable on her!” The tall man clapped his hands and stomped on the ground twice, afraid that he would be tainted by Beiting Huang’s bad luck.
After all, this kid was the ninth young master of the family. Her clothes were not bad, but who would dare to wear her clothes? The short man stepped on her body with his foot and did not find anything hidden. He called out, “Bad luck.” He pulled her sleeve left and right. Unexpectedly, he saw a bracelet on her wrist.
The bracelet was purple in color, and its material was indistinguishable. There were ancient and complicated patterns on it, which was not very eye-catching. However, this was the only thing left on Beiting Huang. They had spent a lot of effort to kill Beiting Huang. Were they going to return empty-handed?
“Heh, this brat, she’s still hiding such a good thing!” The tall man came forward. The short man grabbed Beiting Huang’s wrist, and the tall man went to pull out the bracelet.
The bracelet was stuck to her wrist and could not be removed. “Who has a knife? Chop off her hand!”
Such a good bracelet could be exchanged for a few gold coins.
A knife was handed to him. Originally, a knife could have killed Beiting Huang, but how could a knife be more exciting than punching and kicking her?
She tried to chase after the figure, but the crowd was thick and noisy, and the person had already disappeared into the sea of people.
Shen Qin stood there, rooted to the spot, until the cold autumn rain began to fall on her. Only then did she come back to her senses.
“Master, what’s wrong?” Luo Peilan asked, catching up with her and holding the umbrella. She glanced around, puzzled, as she hadn’t seen Gu Yang.
Luo Peilan’s face showed a hint of excitement as she made a sudden guess. “Is it that old friend of yours, who is better at making incense than Xiao Yang and also called Gu Yang?”
Shen Qin, staring at the endless autumn rain and reflecting the city’s vibrant night, finally nodded slowly.
What do you think?
