Falling in Love to Escape the Original Book Plot [BL]-Chapter 68: Zhen Yuan the Villain
Chapter 68: Zhen Yuan the Villain
Before Shen Xu could react, Shi Qiao screamed.
When everyone looked, the girl was on the ground; ten metres away.
"Sixth sister." Shi Meng shouted and ran toward the girl.
Seeing this, Shi Ping, Shi Dong, and Shi Miao also ran.
However, when they reached their sixth sister, their faces paled.
"Sixth sister." Shi Meng tremblingly placed a finger under her sister’s nose.
"Second sister, how is sixth sister?" Shi Miao asked.
"She is still alive." Shi Meng said while stuffing a healing pill into Shi Qiao’s mouth.
Soon after, she placed her palm on Shi Qiao’s dantian, helping her to absorb the healing effect.
Unfortunately, things didn’t go as planned.
Although the body absorbed the healing pill, the injuries didn’t heal, and Shi Qiao remained unconscious.
"This..." Shi Meng panicked and fed Shi Qiao another healing pill.
However, the outcome was still the same.
"What’s going on? Why aren’t the pills working?"
"Second sister, let me have a look." Shi Ping said, squatted beside Shi Qiao, and felt her pulse.
"First brother..." Shi Miao called.
"All her bones are broken." Shi Ping said in a trembling voice.
"Third brother, hurry and call fifth uncle."
"Mmmm." Shi Dong nodded and took out his communication jade pendant.
"Who attacked my sixth sister?" Shi Miao suddenly glared at Shen Xu.
"Fourth brother, did you do it?"
’Do I look so powerful?’ Shen Xu silently complained but secretly felt proud.
Even without being told, he knew Zhen Yuan made the move.
However, he didn’t want to expose his husband.
Thinking this way, Shen Xu planned to argue.
Unfortunately, Zhen Yuan didn’t get the memo.
Before Shen Xu could implement his plan, an emotionless voice echoed in the corridor.
"I did it." Zhen Yuan admitted, carelessly tilting his head.
A moment later, Shi Qiao suddenly woke up with unconcealable fear in her eyes.
"Sixth sister..., are you awake?" Shi Meng asked.
When he heard this, Shi Ping immediately checked his sixth sister’s pulse.
However, the result was still the same.
"Her body hasn’t recovered." He said with a grave expression.
"Sixth sister..." Shi Meng started, but a cold voice interrupted her.
"Your name is Shi Qiao, right?" Zhen Yuan asked, staring at the woman.
"Mmmm." Shi Qiao tried to nod.
"Aren’t you happy you get to keep your life?" Zhen Yuan smiled, and several people trembled in fear.
’Is Zhen Yuan holding a grudge because of what Shi Qiao said?’ Song Wancheng wondered, silently praying for Shi Qiao.
On the ground, Shi Qiao wanted to faint.
Unfortunately, something was keeping her awake.
’How can my dream man be so horrifying?’ She soundlessly cried
At the same time, the surrounding people fell silent, and no one dared to move.
In this silence, a cry was suddenly heard.
"Xiaoxu, what’s wrong?" Zhen Yuan asked with a worried expression.
"You..., don’t smile when killing people. How scary!" Shen Xu shuddered.
When Zhen Yuan heard this, his lips twitched, and the anger in his heart dissipated.
"You are on my back. How do you know I am smiling?"
"You sounded like a villain just now. Villains usually smile when they say terrifying things."
"Is that so?"
"Mmmm."
"Didn’t you say my smile is the most beautiful?"
Hearing this, Shen Xu knew Zhen Yuan was in a better mood.
When Shi Qiao called him a freeloader and mentioned Xiao Weimin, Shen Xu was angry.
Regardless, his heart was calm and didn’t have too many ups and downs.
However, when he saw Zhen Yuan’s gloomy face, Shen Xu felt stuffy and couldn’t be calm.
Before he knew it, he was thinking of ways to soothe the other’s mood.
Fortunately, his efforts paid off.
Without thinking, Shen Xu leaned down and kissed Zhen Yuan’s neck.
"Ayuan, let’s go home and..." He started but soon stopped himself.
After a moment of thought, he turned to the Shi brothers and sisters.
"My surname has never been Shi, and it will never be the turn of the Shi family’s elders to arrange my marriage. I hope the Shi family and the Xiao family won’t be so presumptuous in the future." He said.
After saying that, Shen Xu comfortably settled on his husband’s back.
"My buzz is gone." He complained.
"Come down if you are no longer drunk." Song Wancheng said.
"I don’t want to walk." Shen Xu refused.
"You..." Song Wancheng sighed.
"My wife and I are leaving." Zhen Yuan said, and without waiting for anyone’s reply, he walked away.
Seeing this, Song Wancheng, Song Wanqing, and Lin Xiang looked at each other but didn’t follow.
"Little brother, did you see how he made the move?" Song Wanqing asked, but Song Wancheng shook his head.
"I felt a stream of qi but didn’t see the attack." Lin Xiang frowned.
Lin Xiang was standing closest to Zhen Yuan and Shen Xu.
As a result, when the incident happened, she felt qi movement but didn’t see the attack.
’Soul attack or colourless qi...’ Song Wancheng wondered with a confused expression.
As far as he knew, no one had colourless qi.
After all, qi-colour was based on the spiritual root.
Fire root cultivators had red qi, water root cultivators had blue qi, wood cultivators had green qi, and so forth.
’What spiritual root can produce colourless qi?’
"Maybe you didn’t see it because the attack was too fast." Song Wanqing said.
"Maybe." Lin Xiang nodded.
After all, she was only a qi refining realm cultivator.
As the three were discussing, hurried footsteps were heard.
A moment later, a middle-aged man appeared at the end of the corridor.
The man was medium height, thin, and had a pointed beard that made him look cunning.
"Fifth uncle." Shi Miao called as soon as the man appeared.
"What happened? How was the sixth girl injured?" Shi Yong asked while taking Shi Qiao’s pulse.
"Fifth uncle, it was Shen Xu’s husband." Shi Miao complained.
"What husband? My Shi family has not agreed to the marriage." Shi Yong declared but soon frowned.
"How did this girl get injured like this?" He asked and then continued.
"Take her to a private box first. Don’t let outsiders see the jokes of my Shi family."
Hearing this, Shi Ping and Shi Dong immediately reacted.
Soon after, Shi Qiao was taken to a private box, and the rest of the Shi family followed.
’The Shi family is a fool to make an enemy of that man.’ Song Wancheng thought.
"Sister, Xiang’er, let’s also go." He said.
