She Holds the World After Being Reborn-Chapter 334 - 333: Call me "Brother" twice, let’s hear it

Chapter 334: Chapter 333: Call me "Brother" twice, let’s hear it

Chen Di had a face that looked harmless to both humans and animals, and when he smiled, he could drive the women of the Northern Border mad. But to Yan Lingzhen’s eyes, there was only an unscrubbable greasiness about him.

"You remind me of someone, an old acquaintance," Chen Di said.

Yan Lingzhen sneered coldly.

All her life, she had been told she resembled only one person.

That was her sister, Yan Wanqing.

But now, she was no longer in a rush to reveal her identity. She was more eager to see the looks of panic and desperation on their faces when her sister appeared before them, begging for mercy on the ground!

The mere thought filled her with satisfaction!

"Especially these eyes," Chen Di couldn’t help but reach out to touch.

"Smack!" Without any courtesy, Yan Lingzhen slapped his hand away.

Chen Di gasped in pain, waving his hand, which had already reddened.

He was not accustomed to such treatment, and just as he was about to explode, he laughed out again, "Li San said you have a fiery temper, indeed very fiery."

"Is Li San still alive?" Yan Lingzhen asked coldly.

Chen Di’s lips curled into a smile, "He’s about to die. Why, do you care about him?"

"I care if he’s dead and who killed him." After all, she very much wanted to return all the humiliation she had suffered right back to him!

"Quite a vengeful spirit," Chen Di commented.

Yan Lingzhen gave him a look and snorted coldly, walking towards the inside of the house.

"Did this young master permit you to leave?" Chen Di directly grabbed Yan Lingzhen’s wrist, exerting a slight force, causing the scabbed wound to start tearing again.

Yan Lingzhen grimaced in pain, "Let go!"

"You’re on my turf, you listen to me, or there’s no good outcome for you," Chen Di said with a sickening smile on his lips, squeezing harder until blood began to drip from between his fingers.

Seeing Yan Lingzhen’s face grow pale with pain, the smile on Chen Di’s face deepened.

"You look so beautiful like this. Cry out in pain, let brother here hear you," he said.

Disgusting!

Yan Lingzhen felt nauseous.

She couldn’t break free and used her other hand to slap his face, "Do I look like your sister?"

Chen Di, being a martial practitioner, quickly caught her hand and then squeezed it fiercely, dislocating her right hand.

The pain drained all color from Yan Lingzhen’s lips.

"Yes, that’s the look! Keep looking at me like that!" Chen Di said in frenzy.

Yan Lingzhen: "...I r&*()~!!"[profanity]

Her response was her other hand being dislocated as well.

Lunatic!

This man was a lunatic!

With both hands hanging limply in the air, Yan Lingzhen was pressed against the wall by Chen Di in a humiliating pose.

"From now on, when you see me, you call me ’brother.’ Got it?"

"I’ll call you a motherf***er," Yan Lingzhen, in pain, had only curses left in her head.

"Ptui!" She spat a mouthful of saliva on Chen Di’s face.

Chen Di wiped it off with the back of his hand.

His face was filled with coldness.

He slapped Yan Lingzhen across the face, then threw her to the ground.

"Is everyone dead?!" he shouted loudly in the courtyard.

A swarm of servants scurried out.

"Please calm down, young master..."

Chen Di pointed at Yan Lingzhen on the ground, "Starting now, she is not allowed to eat. Starve her for a day and a night, and tomorrow send her to the Beast Taming Ground. I want to see how tough she really is!"

He could tell at a glance that Yan Lingzhen was not one to be trifled with; she was full of rebelliousness.

But the more it was so, the more he wanted to see the day she would lower her noble head.

The Beast Taming Ground tomorrow was designed to satisfy the special predilections of powerful officials and nobles, so stuffing the girl into it would be a good way to rub her sharpness down!

Having said that, he strode away.

Yan Lingzhen’s expressionless hand pressed against the ground, and with a cringe-inducing snap, she reset her right hand. Then, under the horrified gazes of the servant girls, with another snap, she reset her left hand. freewebnσvel.cѳm

She really was ruthless.

No wonder she could infuriate the young master to this extent.

Slowly, Yan Lingzhen climbed up from the ground and walked toward the house.

Before she could enter, she was stopped by Wang Suying.

"You’ve angered the young master, and now you’ll have no good days ahead," she said in schadenfreude.

Yan Lingzhen lazily gave her a glance, "That’s none of your business!"

"The young master is young, handsome, and has money and power. I truly don’t know what you’re thinking."

"If you enjoy licking boots, do it yourself. Don’t rope others into it," Yan Lingzhen snorted coldly, pushed down Wang Suying’s hand, then walked straight into the house and poured herself a glass of water, gulping it down thirstily.

Having no food to eat today, she could only satisfy her hunger by drinking water.

She didn’t know how exactly Li San had spoken to Chen Di, but the entire house was devoid of plants, and the yard only had a row of bamboo, leaving her no opportunity to exert herself.

Yan Lingzhen only knew some basic self-defense skills and couldn’t even defeat the door-keeping maid from last night.

For now, she had no choice but to dryly wait in this small courtyard, waiting for her elder sister to come and rescue her.

Just then, Chen Di walked out of the yard and heard a servant report that his father was calling him to the front hall to receive the Commandery Princess.

As soon as he heard that the Commandery Princess had come, Chen Di ran off swiftly.

Yan Wanqing was in the main hall, having tea with the City Lord.

"...Since it’s like this, I must impose on the City Lord’s hospitality," she said.

The City Lord spoke with a chuckle, "Where does that come from? It’s the City Lord’s honor to have the Commandery Princess visit. How could it possibly be an imposition?"

Yan Wanqing offered a hypocritical smile, then changed the subject: "I heard that the City Lord has acquired a treasure. I wonder if I might have the honor of seeing it."

"Of course, it’s just that this treasure is more magnificent to view at night..." The City Lord hesitated a bit: "If the Commandery Princess wishes to see it earlier, it’s not impossible—"

"Since it is more magnificent to view at night, I am not in a hurry for the moment. Let’s wait until the sun sets and night falls," said Yan Wanqing, who was not really interested in the treasure at all; her real motives lay elsewhere.

It was at this moment that Chen Di entered from the doorway.

As soon as he saw Yan Wanqing, a warm smile appeared on his face.

"I have seen the Commandery Princess. May peace be upon the Commandery Princess," he said.

Yan Wanqing slightly curved her lips. When her gaze fell upon a bloodstain on Chen Di’s sleeve, her peach blossom eyes suddenly turned icy: "I’ve seen Chen Di. What has kept you so busy this early in the morning, to stain your sleeve thusly?"

Chen Di quickly checked and saw a crimson mark below the cuff of his sleeve.

It was from when he had forcibly grabbed the dying girl’s wound.

"The Commandery Princess has sharp eyes indeed. This is from killing a fish this morning. I never imagined such a small stain would be noticed by the Commandery Princess."

"Killing fish?" Yan Wanqing mused thoughtfully.

The City Lord beside him laughed and chimed in, "Yes, the Commandery Princess may laugh, but we caught a big fish last night while night fishing. My son has a unique skill in making fish soup that others cannot match. Knowing that the Commandery Princess was to come this morning, my son personally cooked, so the dish will soon be ready for your enjoyment."

"That’s the case, Commandery Princess," Chen Di sighed in relief inwardly.

Luckily, his father had helped.

Otherwise, he truly didn’t know how to cover up the lie.

Because of the City Lord’s explanation, the servants in the house quickly exchanged glances, and now the kitchen was busily starting to prepare the fish soup.

Yan Wanqing, steeped in years of power and scheming, naturally did not believe such an excuse.

That was no fish blood.

It was clearly human blood.

She forcibly suppressed the restlessness in her heart.

Impatience would mess up the grand plan.

She had to ensure Xiaoliu was completely safe and then rescue her. Absolutely no accidents could be permitted!
