Yusui Chang'an

Chapter 1233: Surge of Killing Intent

Jin Palace.

The spy followed the clues provided by Qin Zongliang and found the pawnshop where Xiaotao was sold, and then followed Xiaotao to the house. Finally, he found out that Zhou Yuexue and Lin Jinyun had been hanging out in the house on the fifth day of the Lunar New Year.

After hearing this, Zhong Yi was filled with anger and self-blame. His face turned as dark as ink. He hesitated for a long time before entering the house and stumbling over his words to Chu Chengyao.

Ever since Chu Chengyao learned that Zhou Yuexue had behaved improperly in the past, not only had an unclear relationship with Lin Jinyun, but also had her eyes on Gu Yichen, he had felt disgusted and annoyed.

Zhou Yuexue was detained in the main courtyard on the pretext that there was a spy in the mansion who wanted to harm the unborn baby.

He also sent guards to guard the gate of the courtyard. No one was allowed to enter or leave without his order. Although this move was also intended to protect his offspring, it was more because he didn't want to see Zhou Yuexue again.

At this moment, he heard that after Zhou Yuexue followed him, she also had sex with Lin Jinyun. Calculating the time, it just happened to match the month of Zhou Yuexue's pregnancy. When he thought that the child was very likely to be Lin Jinyun's, the humiliated and resentful Chu Chengyao suddenly had murderous intentions:
He tried his best, but ended up marrying a useless bitch who was full of stigma, fickle and pregnant with an illegitimate child!
"Damn that bitch! No wonder she killed Lin Jinyun to silence him! Go and beat that bitch to death with a stick, and kill the evil child in her belly as well!"

Zhong Yi wanted to advise him: wait until the child is born before taking any action.

Looking at her furious master, and thinking of Zhou Yuexue, who was unfaithful to her husband, she did not dare and did not want to persuade him anymore. She just stepped out of the room after obeying the order when she was stopped by Chu Chengyao again.

Chu Chengyao held onto the desk, closed his eyes, clenched his teeth, and took rapid breaths for a while. He kept reminding himself that this child was very important, and only then did he manage to calm the anger that was about to explode from his chest:

"Don't spread this matter. Call the woman who came to the mansion a few days ago, He Shun'er, and question her. Also, bring Xiao Tao who knows about this matter to the mansion privately. Don't alarm others."

Dong'er was called over and knelt down nervously to pay her respects. When Chu Chengyao asked about what happened, she gritted her teeth and said she knew nothing for the sake of her own life and Zhou Yuexue. Chu Chengyao was furious and had no patience to listen to her covering up, so he directly ordered Zhong Yi to send Dong'er back to her gambling husband, Wang Ping.

Dong'er had been scared by Wang Ping's beatings, otherwise she wouldn't have come to find Zhou Yuexue. Just hearing Wang Ping's name, her body began to tremble uncontrollably.

Hearing that she was going to be sent back, Dong'er, who was dragged out of the door by Zhong Yi, could no longer care about anything else and held on to the door frame tightly begging for mercy:
"Your Highness, please spare my life. I will tell you everything."

After Chu Chengyao's signal, Zhong Yi let go of his hand. Dong'er crawled back into the house using her hands and feet, and stammered about what happened.

Although she was mindful of their friendship, Dong'er was biased towards Zhou Yuexue in her words, saying that Zhou Yuexue was a stranger and did not dare to resist.

But how could a cunning and sinister person like Chu Chengyao listen to her words that were full of loopholes?
He was really reluctant, why would he send Dong'er away and be alone with Lin Jinyun?

Master Lin is such a conservative person that if Lin Jinyun really forced him, he wouldn't even have time to apologize, let alone send Zhou Yuexue back to her hometown.

"Since she is already married and doesn't want to return to her husband, then sell her to a brothel."

Dong'er begged for mercy in fear. A brothel was the lowest class of brothels. The prices were so low that even beggars could go there. If she was really sold there, she would have no choice but to wait for death.

Dong'er was so frightened that she burst into tears and kowtowed repeatedly to beg Chu Chengyao to let her go, and even offered to return to Wang Ping's side.

Chu Chengyao said with disgust: "Like master, like slave. Since you have an affair, how can you have the face to serve your husband?"
