The Peerless Beauty Stuck With Me

Chapter 1554 - 1553: The Real Culprit

The women in the backyard listened to the commotion, all of them gathering with an intention of curiosity. The more they looked down, the more suspicious they felt.Everyone present, except Qin Qing, seemed to be siding with You Xiaoxiao, indicating that not only You Xiaoxiao and Tang Xiaobai, but even the others found the joint murder plot suspicious.

"Xiaoxiao, you are also at fault and should be punished. Since everyone is here, I happen to have a little video I'd like to share with you all. Let's decide on your punishment after the video is shared!"

If it was discovered that someone had planned to kill Tang Rao, Tang Rao shouldn't have reacted this way. At the very least, she should have given the opposing party a warning, a minor punishment. But instead of delivering that punishment, Tang Rao insisted on sharing the video with the entire Kao Shan Sect.

At this point, what was the point of sharing the video?

Only Wang Han knew that Tang Rao intended to have an honest and open discussion about this matter with the brothers of the Kao Shan Sect.

Soon, not only Chun Ping and Gui San, but even Qin Qing would lose face completely.

Perhaps that was the best outcome; who knows how many people would suffer once Tang Rao got angry.

Not being immediately called away by Tang Rao, and not immediately leaving Tang Rao's side, You Xiaoxiao desperately tried to remember Tang Rao's appearance. She even considered if the other side truly wronged her completely, she wouldn't fight back and would leave the Kao Shan Sect; once outside, she didn't want to live anymore, taking with her the memory and longing for Tang Rao, which seemed fine.

While You Xiaoxiao was lost in thought, the Illusion Space boiled over, completely!

The amount of information inside was greater than ever before, waking even You Xiaoxiao with a jolt.

When she entered Illusion City, it was a bit late, though she arrived just in time to see a man and a woman engaged in improper actions.

She wanted to ask Tang Rao, at this point, why show this to the brothers of the Kao Shan Sect? Was he seeking justice or making a joke?

When the couple was caught on camera from the front, You Xiaoxiao finally understood the purpose of Tang Rao showing this video.

By the end, when Chun Ping was seen stuffing a cloth bag into Gui San's hand, You Xiaoxiao understood everything.

"So, how was the earlier performance? Quite extraordinarily brilliant, right? Do any of you brothers have anything to say?"

Tang Rao's sharp gaze swept over the crowd several times, waiting for someone to step forward and speak.

Before anyone could stand up to give their opinion, a smell of blood already reached the noses of those closest to Tang Rao.

"Boss, something terrible happened, Missus' maid bit her tongue and killed herself!"

The first person to discover Chun Ping's suicide was Sun Miao. He initially intended to find a way to save Chun Ping's life but ultimately was a step too slow and couldn't achieve his goal.

"I expected her to die, just didn't think she'd do it so resolutely to protect her master."

Tang Rao said this to Qin Qing. Even though the matter was already this transparent, Qin Qing still gritted her teeth, showing no intention of admitting anything.

"Qin Qing, last time it was Dong Qi who died, this time it's Chun Ping. Can you tell me what's going on?"

Tang Rao was utterly disappointed in Qin Qing.

This person was too clever, which was indeed bad. Knowing everything yet pretending to know nothing, that was what troubled him the most.

"I didn't know when Chun Ping got involved with that Bald man. No wonder she kept egging me on, telling me Xiaoxiao was involved with those people. It turns out she wanted to frame Xiaoxiao. Tang Rao, you must uphold justice for me and Xiaoxiao, clear our sisters' names!"

Qin Qing knelt at Tang Rao's feet, kowtowing continuously until her forehead was bloody, yet she didn't stop.

It was a joke that if the kowtowing stopped and the explanation ended, her life would basically be over.

"Both of my maids are dead, and my heart is already devastated."

Qin Qing wanted to further express how difficult it was for her, but didn't expect Tang Rao to have no compassion whatsoever. He directly kicked Qin Qing to the ground, causing her to spit out a mouthful of blood as sweetness rose in her chest.

"You are devastated? I am devastated to no end. I had no feud with your two maids; they were both brought here by you. If it wasn't you trying to kill me, then last time knowing Dong Qi intended to murder me, your response shouldn't have been pleading but worrying for me. This time the approach should not be directly going to Xiaoxiao, but acting against the criminal."

Truly liking a man is like a man truly liking a woman; in moments of crisis, the first instinct should be to protect the other. But Qin Qing did not.

From beginning to end, she never said a word to comfort Tang Rao. Tang Rao couldn't believe a woman who truly loved him would be like this.

At first, Qin Qing was still thinking about what went wrong when Tang Rao voiced his innermost thoughts and personal experiences, only then did Qin Qing realize where she went wrong.

"So, when Dong Qi died, did you start suspecting me? No, at that time, you should have already confirmed it was me who made the move, but out of the last bit of affection between us, you spared my life. It's just a pity I didn't cherish it and kept courting death, so you finally decided to act, right?"

That's why Tang Rao had footage of Chun Ping and Gui San's affair, but kept it silent for so long.

"Yes, you're absolutely right."

He valued the past affection, but that didn't mean he could tolerate Qin Qing sending people to assassinate him without limits.

"But even with the truth revealed, I don't know why you did this! What do you gain by killing me?"

His gaze seemed to penetrate Qin Qing, and that gaze made Qin Qing ache all over.

"What do I gain? Right, what benefit is there in killing you? My man is gone, my home is gone, what else could I gain?"

Qin Qing originally lay on the ground, finally struggling to sit up with a strange expression.

"But if I didn't do it, I wouldn't have a good ending either. The Qin Family wouldn't let me go, from the moment I knew about their plot, I knew if I didn't act, they'd move against me and silence me. Apart from personally killing you, I truly had no other retreat."

After all, it was a matter of life and death; she was doomed by the Qin Family. As a descendant of the Qin Family, Qin Qing had no pity in her heart. Instead, she wanted someone to accompany her in her death. Even in the netherworld, she needed some company.

"But you aren't completely without a way out. It's just that you always saw me as inferior to the Qin Family, so you felt I was useless and chose to cooperate with the Qin Family?"

This time it was Qin Qing's turn to nod silently.

"That's why you should die!"

Tang Rao doesn't hit women, but that doesn't mean she'll unconditionally tolerate just any woman.
