Chapter 95 Revenge
"Prince, what should we do? The old lady is about to come in." Aunt Wei grabbed Liu Yan's hand in panic, not knowing what to do.
Liu Yan stared at the tightly closed door with his dark eyes, as if he could see Qiu walking towards the room through the door.
He did not ask Aunt Wei to go out and deal with the situation. He knew his woman. Although she was kind-hearted, she was not smart. Facing that vicious woman, Mrs. Qiu, she could not even tell a lie, let alone hold Mrs. Qiu back.
That would only accelerate Qiu's suspicion.
But how long could Aunt Wei hold out if she didn't go out? The time for a few steps was not enough for them to do anything.
Liu Yan could explain everything else, but how could he explain the servant at Fuhe Hall?
It was too late for Liu Yan to do anything as he heard footsteps outside the door.
One step, two steps...
The door was pushed open.
When Qiu pushed the door open and saw the scene in the room clearly, her pupils suddenly contracted and she took several steps back.
Aunt Ling, who was following beside Qiu, fell directly to the ground and kept crawling backwards. She muttered in fear as if she was possessed by a demon:
"No...you're going to hit...me..."
"Someone come..." After all, Qiu was a person sitting in a high position, and she personally dealt with the old marquis's other women one by one. Her methods and strategies were much more powerful than most people.
After a while, she came back to her senses, looked at the head hanging upside down above the door, and a surge of anger gushed out. She shouted loudly:
"Pull that lunatic down for me."
The maidservant brought by Qiu immediately wanted to rush into the house and pull down Liu Yan who was hanging upside down at the door.
Looking at the maids rushing over, Liu Yan grinned, revealing a row of big yellow teeth, and the laughter that came out of his mouth was as happy as that of a child.
He suddenly shook his body, avoided the maid, and asked with an innocent smile:
"Sister, are you here to play games with me?"
The maids were stunned at first, then rushed over again in anger, determined to catch Liu Yan.
"Come on, you can't catch me, let's have fun..." A clear and innocent voice like that of a child came out.
"Are you all dead? You can't even catch a madman, what's the point of me keeping you?" Qiu roared.
Qiu's voice seemed to attract Liu Yan. He hooked his feet on the beam, then suddenly let go. Without any doubt, he lay on all fours on the ground.
Liu Yan seemed to feel no pain. He jumped up and ran towards Qiu.
"Sister, are you here to play with me too? You have to play with me."
No one expected this out-of-control scene to happen. Qiu was even more scared. She didn't want to be caught by Liu Yan, who was a madman.
"Stop him quickly."
The maids who were about to catch Liu Yan reacted and immediately turned around to stop Liu Yan.
But no matter how they thought, they could never have expected that Liu Yan was so strong that he could knock a person away with just one step.
He had no idea what to do, and he rushed around in the crowd. His eyes were red, and he was like a monkey out of control. After a while, there was no one in front of Qiu. Liu Yan just kept facing her face, circling around her, and singing:
"Follow me, jump to the left, jump to the right, jump up, jump down, jump in place..."
"Mad man." Qiu pushed Liu Yan violently.
At this moment, Aunt Wei and Xiao Yu ran out of the house, rushed over and grabbed Liu Yan.
Mrs. Qiu breathed a sigh of relief and glared at the two of them. She suspected that the two of them had deliberately taken so long to come out and wanted to see her make a fool of herself.
How could this not make her angry?
But before she could do anything, Aunt Wei started crying first.
Xiao Yu yelled nervously:
"Hurry up and catch the master, otherwise he will kill people with a knife again."
"Mother, please help me control the master." Aunt Wei also shouted anxiously.
Only then did Mrs. Qiu notice that the little maid who came with Aunt Wei had a knife wound on her arm, which was bleeding profusely, and a large area of her green sleeve was wet.
There were even multiple cuts on Aunt Wei's dress.
As they finished speaking, a flash of cold light suddenly appeared and shone in front of Qiu's eyes.
Qiu's pupils suddenly contracted. Seeing the kitchen knife coming towards her, she forgot to react, and the nursery rhyme flowing in her ears changed again.
"Meat, meat, eat meat..."
This seemed to have become her haunting nightmare.
When everyone was staring at the knife falling from Liu Yan's hand, no one noticed that under Liu Yan's messy hair, a flash of unwillingness flashed in his bloodshot eyes.
The knife in his hand suddenly changed direction and chased after a maid, grinning:
"I want to eat that piece of meat, don't run away..."
The little maidservant was so frightened that her face turned pale and she ran wildly in the north courtyard for her life.
I don’t know if it was a coincidence, but the direction the maid ran in was exactly where Nanny Ling was hiding.
Seeing this scene, Nanny Ling was petrified on the spot. She watched the little maid pass her and Liu Yan rushed in front of her with a knife in hand in the blink of an eye. Nanny Ling rolled her eyes and fainted.
Liu Yan didn't even blink, ignoring her as if she were air, stepped right over Ling Ma and continued his pursuit.
Xiao Yu and Aunt Wei were dragging chains in their hands and chasing after Liu Yan.
The North Courtyard was in chaos.
Qiu, who had said she was not afraid before, began to move towards the door after Liu Yan changed his target. She was scared and wanted to leave.
But the North Courtyard was only that big, and those figures chasing each other would always pass by the door from time to time, blocking Qiu's steps.
Considering the commotion in the North Courtyard, it should have been early in the front yard. However, no one came. Qiu's face looked very ugly. Did something happen?
In fact, Qiu's guess was correct. Something did happen in the front yard. At this time, Wu, the eldest daughter-in-law of the Chen family, came to the door with Chang, the fourth daughter-in-law, Yao, the fifth daughter-in-law, and Feng, the maid who was beside the old lady, in a threatening manner.
If any servants or guards from the Pingnan Marquis's residence tried to stop them, they would be tied up and thrown into the yard by the Chen residence's men.
By the time the people in Pingnan Marquis' Mansion reacted, the Chen family had arrived at Fuhe Hall without any hindrance.
Wu saw the people from Pingnan Marquis' Mansion rushing in, without any emotion. She looked at Lou, whom she had met once before, and asked:
"Where is the old lady of your Pingnan Marquis Mansion?"
Seeing this situation, Lou swallowed his saliva and asked with a smile:
"Excuse me, my in-laws..."
"Who are your relatives?" Yao glanced at them contemptuously and interrupted them.
Lou's smile froze on her face, but she had to ask:
"Excuse me, what do you want from my mother?"
Wu raised her eyelids and looked at Lou, and said calmly:
"This has nothing to do with you. We came here just to ask what the old lady of Pingnan Marquis Mansion meant. How dare you touch someone from our Chen Mansion? Do you really think our Chen Mansion is dead?"
