Good Pregnancy Quick Transmigration: The Overly Charming CEO with No Heirs

Xi Yao sighed, following her words, and used her fan to cover the smile on her lips:

"That's right, they're all gone. But then again, you can't take those things with you when you die, so they're gone. Why are you crying like this, little sister? Your health is more important."

Lu Shanshan's eyelashes trembled, clearly not expecting Xi Yao to react this way.

If an ordinary woman loses her dowry, wouldn't she cry and wail in despair?

This guy, on the other hand, acted as if he'd lost a few coins, not even flinching.

She had a vague feeling that something was wrong, but she didn't say anything. She just forced a smile and said, "Sister is so magnanimous. I admire you."

Lu Lingling, who was standing to the side, had long been unable to contain herself.

From the moment she saw Xiyao, she never looked at her directly.

Hearing Xi Yao speak so casually, he became even more furious, let out a cold laugh, and raised his chin high:

"A merchant's daughter is a merchant's daughter. What good things could there be in her dowry? I'm afraid that apart from a few tattered silver coins, there's nothing else of real value."

So even if you lose it, you won't be worried, because who cares about a bunch of useless things?

These words were so harsh that the maids and servants nearby didn't dare to utter a sound.

Lu Shanshan frowned, tugged at her sister's sleeve, and spoke in a soft but slightly reproachful voice:

"Lingling, don't be rude! Your sister is also the Marquis's wife, practically your sister. How can you speak to her like that?"

Then she turned to Xiyao and smiled apologetically, "Sister, please don't be offended. Lingling is young and speaks without thinking. I will definitely talk to her properly when we get back."

"She doesn't deserve to be my sister. Sister, why are you apologizing to her?" Lu Lingling was unhappy. "Sister, you are the true mistress of this manor."

She then looked at Xi Yao with disdain: "My sister is the darling of the Marquis, and what are you? A merchant's daughter dares to be my brother-in-law's legal wife? If it weren't for the old Marquis's dying words, you wouldn't even have a chance to enter this manor..."

"Lingling!" Lu Shanshan interrupted her anxiously, looking quite helpless. "Don't talk nonsense, you little kid. If it weren't for your magnanimity, I would have made you copy the family rules today."

Xi Yao looked at the two hypocritical sisters and felt a little disgusted.

She waved her round fan and said slowly, "I am indeed the daughter of a merchant. Merchants at least give their daughters real money as dowry."

Unlike some people whose dowries may look impressive, it's hard to say how much of it is actually fake.

I heard that some people's dowry lists only included a pair of hollow gold necklaces. Wow, I've never seen anything like it!

Lü Lingling's face instantly turned bright red.

"What did you say?!" She clenched her fists tightly, her teeth grinding together.

Xi Yao blinked slowly, her tone perfectly innocent:

"What did I say? I was talking about other people's gossip, Lingling, don't take it personally."

She covered her mouth with her fan and chuckled softly, "But judging from my sister's temperament, she really does take after your Lü family. She's easily provoked, like a firecracker. She's not like a lady from a respectable family at all; she's more like a shrew from the streets."

This statement hit Lü Lingling right where it hurt.

"You bitch!"

Lu Lingling's rationality collapsed at this moment.

Her eyes were bloodshot, and like a mad calf, she suddenly pounced on Xi Yao.

"Who do you think you are? A lowly merchant's daughter, how dare you point fingers at me and my sister? I'll tear your mouth apart today!"

Xi Yao's expression remained unchanged; she simply shifted her body slightly to the side, deftly avoiding Lü Lingling's collision.

Lu Lingling missed her target, tripped on the threshold, and lost her balance.

She screamed, flailed her arms wildly in the air but caught nothing, and fell face down.

"Ahhhhh!"

With a muffled thud, followed by Lü Lingling's heart-wrenching scream.

Everyone was stunned.

Lu Lingling lay on the ground, her hands covering her face. Crimson blood seeped from between her fingers, dripping onto the ground, a shocking sight.

"Aaaaaah! My face!"

The piercing screams sounded as if they were about to rip the roof off.

The maidservant beside her quickly ran over to help her up.

When they pulled her up from the ground, everyone gasped.

Lu Lingling's face was scratched by pebbles, leaving several deep cuts, the skin and flesh torn open, and her face covered in blood.

That once beautiful face now looked hideous and terrifying.

Lu Shanshan's tears stopped instantly.

She stared at the wound on her sister's face, her pupils suddenly contracted, and a cold glint flashed in her eyes.

But in an instant, the chill vanished, replaced by a face full of fear and heartache.

She rushed forward, pressed her handkerchief against Lü Lingling's wound, and her voice trembled: "Quick! Go get a doctor!"

Then she turned to look at Xi Yao, her eyes red and her lips trembling slightly, "Sister, Lingling is still young, and what she says may be unpleasant, but why must you..."

The words were left unsaid, but the meaning was clear.

Xi Yao leaned against the door frame, slowly waving the round fan in her hand, without even changing her posture.

She curved her lips into a slight smile, her tone flat: "Little sister, you've misunderstood. Lingling was rushing at me; I merely dodged. She lost her balance and fell. How can you blame me for that?"

Lu Shanshan's fingers tightened slightly, her nails digging into her palms.

She lowered her eyes, her long eyelashes concealing all the emotions within them, her voice still gentle: "Sister is right, it was Lingling's own carelessness."

Xi Yao looked at her like this and clicked her tongue inwardly.

He's a master, and a ruthless one at that.

"You bitch!" Lu Lingling screamed, "I'm going to kill you! I'll definitely kill you!"

His crazed state was no different from that of a ghost.

Xi Yao ignored her and slowly took a step towards the door. "Since you're busy here, I won't disturb you."

After saying that, she left without looking back.

Behind her came Lu Lingling's curses, but Xi Yao treated it as background music and walked with a light step as if she were on a spring outing.

As Lu Shanshan watched her retreating figure, the ruthlessness in her eyes almost materialized.

How could there be pebbles at the entrance of the main hall?

[Host, I knew you were here to cause trouble.]

996, however, witnessed firsthand the pebbles scattered by its own host.

Just as Lü Lingling fell down...

"Yes." Xi Yao was in a good mood. "She ruined Yun Zhao's face in the original timeline, how could I let her get away with it?"

In addition, Lü Lingling also had Han Yunzhao's tendons in his hands and feet severed.

This debt must be repaid.

Tonight is a great opportunity.

If Lü Lingling gets into trouble at the Marquis's residence, the Lü family probably won't be so magnanimous as to maintain a close relationship with the Marquis's residence.

Xi Yao hadn't originally intended to mess with Xue Pingzhi, but his behavior over the past two days had left her speechless, so she decided to take matters into her own hands.
