Chapter 21 The Murder of Her Husband

Lin Qingzhu was truly vicious!

If Ye Zixiao hadn't reacted quickly.

He would have truly become a eunuch!

Ten days passed in a blink of an eye…

Strangely, the Ma family made no further moves, the Black Tiger Hall did not retaliate against the Lin family, and even Young Master Qin, whose ear had been severed, took no action against Ye Zixiao.

This matter was very abnormal, as most people thought the Ma family’s submission was understandable, but the Black Tiger Hall and the Qin family, such powers, should not have yielded!

The Black Tiger Hall was an underworld syndicate.

The Qin family was a first-rate aristocratic clan.

Even if Ye Zixiao was Jiang Xiaoyao’s man, if the Black Tiger Hall and the Qin family joined forces, the Shura Sect might not intervene, after all, Ye Zixiao was merely a pretty boy.

With the enemies making no move.

The Lin family had to continue living their lives.

Despite the risks, Lin Qingzhu had already started working, as the Lin family had a large household to support, and the twenty-four-hour security guards were also a considerable expense.

The Bentley sedan slowly stopped.

Lin Qingzhu and Ye Zixiao alighted from the car.

Ye Zixiao looked up, and before him stood a magnificent and opulent skyscraper, exuding an extraordinary presence and grandeur. In the sunlight, its glass exterior walls emitted a dazzling golden glow.

“Dragon Ding Building?!”

Ye Zixiao uttered reflexively.

“Yes, this is the most luxurious office building in the entire Beihai City, an industry of the Dragon Ding Group. My company also operates here; the entire tenth floor belongs to my family.”

Lin Qingzhu introduced expressionlessly.

The reason she brought Ye Zixiao to work was first for safety, and second, she wanted Ye Zixiao to understand the Lin family’s business, hoping he might take an interest in working.

“How many floors does this building have?”

“Sixty-nine floors!”

“Do companies on higher floors mean they are more powerful?”

“That’s right, but any group or company can only reach up to the sixtieth floor, because the top nine floors belong to the Dragon Ding Group and are not open to the public!”

“Is the Dragon Ding Group powerful?”

“Extremely powerful, the most powerful!”

“Heh, I understand!”

Ye Zixiao, like a country bumpkin, followed Lin Qingzhu into the lobby, and under the watchful eyes of many staff members, entered the elevator, heading to Lin Qingzhu’s company on the tenth floor.

Before entering the elevator.

Ye Zixiao noticed a very special elevator, with four black-clad security guards standing before its doors. They were all of considerable martial prowess, akin to military generals.

Martial general-level experts guarding an elevator door?

That must be exclusively for Dragon Ding’s use, right?

Another week passed in the blink of an eye…

The Ma family, the Black Tiger Hall, and the Qin family, these great powers with grudges against the Lin family, still did not declare war on the Lin family, nor did they take any offensive actions against them.

Just as the initial storm began to subside.

Ma Sanshun, the patriarch of the Ma family, suddenly made a high-profile announcement in the media: his beloved daughter, Ma Ya’ai, would be marrying Young Master Qin of the Qin family at the end of this month, thus joining their families.

Soon after.

The Qin family also issued a statement announcing a wedding of the century to be held at the Dragon Ding Grand Hotel, inviting all the dignitaries and influential figures in the city. No gifts would be accepted, and generous red envelopes would be given.

This was big news.

It immediately garnered significant attention!

Ordinary citizens buzzed with discussions, unable to comprehend the Ma family’s qualifications to intermarry with the Qin family. After all, the Ma family was half legitimate and half underworld, considered unremarkable in the eyes of the Qin family.

They believed the Ma family had gotten lucky.

They thought the Ma family was marrying above their station.

Some also commented that Ma Ya’ai was good in bed…

On the tenth floor of the Dragon Ding Building, Lin Qingzhu sat in her luxurious office. After reading the news on her phone, she looked up at the reception area and said, “Ye Zixiao, come here.”

“Hold on, I’m pushing towers!”

Ye Zixiao was playing a game.

“Ye Zixiao, I called you here to learn management, not to play games. If you continue to be so idle, I will announce to everyone that you are my kept man.”

“Damn it, I died again!”

Ye Zixiao, who was very passionate about games but possessed no talent, after being verbally abused by his teammates for deliberately feeding kills, finally put down his phone and walked towards Lin Qingzhu.

“What’s wrong, my dear?”

Ye Zixiao provocatively lifted Lin Qingzhu’s chin.

“I’ve really had enough of you!”

Lin Qingzhu swatted away Ye Zixiao’s hand.

Over the past few days of interaction, Lin Qingzhu had grown accustomed to Ye Zixiao’s shamelessness but was helpless against it, forced to endure, always prepared to kill Ye Zixiao.

“See for yourself!”

Lin Qingzhu returned her phone to Ye Zixiao.

Ye Zixiao looked down, glanced at the news headline, and said dismissively, “Damn, they’re planning to team up against me? But it’s useless, the Qin family is just dog shit in my eyes.”

“Heh!”

Lin Qingzhu was also accustomed to Ye Zixiao’s boasting.

She patiently explained, “Ordinary people may not understand, but I do. The Qin family is also half legitimate and half underworld. Their marriage alliance is equivalent to absorbing the Ma family.”

“And then?”

“Then they will surely target us.”

“What is their underworld business?”

“Drugs, poison, women, children!”

“Damn it!”

Ye Zixiao suddenly became a bit more serious and said, “Wife, don’t be afraid, with me here, the Qin family is just dog shit. It’s best if they don’t cause trouble, but if they do, I’ll wipe out their entire clan.”

“Ye Zixiao, can you stop boasting? Can you stop spewing garbage from your mouth? Can you help me like a normal man? I’m very tired, truly exhausted!”

“Come, let husband hug you!”

Ye Zixiao pulled Lin Qingzhu into his embrace.

Unexpectedly.

Lin Qingzhu didn’t draw her knife this time?

“I’m here, I’m here.”

Ye Zixiao’s words were gentle, and he patted Lin Qingzhu’s back lightly, but then his hand slid down, and a large hand grasped firmly.

“You motherf***er!”

Lin Qingzhu pushed Ye Zixiao away.

She opened a drawer, pulled out a half-meter-long saber, raised it with a cold expression, and slashed. Missing her target, she flipped over the desk and lunged to stab at Ye Zixiao’s vital spot.

“I’ll be damned, murdering your own husband!”

Ye Zixiao yelped and rushed out of the room.

“I’ll kill you!”

Lin Qingzhu, brandishing the saber, chased after him.

Outside the door, the modern office areas were fashionable and grand. Employees and management from various departments cast their gazes, but no one seemed overly surprised.

Because in recent days.

Such incidents had been unfolding daily…

The end of the month arrived quickly, and the super wedding that the entire city was anticipating would be held as scheduled. The Qin family and the Ma family sent out invitations, and nearly all the city’s dignitaries and influential figures received them.

Only the Lin family was not invited.

“What should our family do?”

“Yes, it’s quite humiliating!”

In the Lin family’s grand living room, Lin Feng and Jiang Chunmei, who had recovered from their injuries, looked at Lin Qingzhu opposite them, and then at Lin Bin and Ye Zixiao, who were currently running from the poison circle.

“We have to go even if we are not invited.”

Lin Qingzhu said clearly with a cold face, “I’ve thought about it seriously. For the safety of the entire family, I’ll go and apologize. We’ll pay if we need to pay, otherwise, business can’t continue.”

“Qingzhu, won’t it be dangerous?”

“What if the Qin family tries to harm you?”

Lin Feng and Jiang Chunmei were clearly worried.

“No, with such a grand wedding, with all the city’s dignitaries present, the Qin family and the Ma family should not act lethally. At most, they will just make a few sarcastic remarks. For this family, I accept it!”

“Looting the bodies, damn it, run fast.”

Ye Zixiao suddenly shouted loudly.

“Brother-in-law, why are you running from everyone you see?”

Young brother-in-law Lin Bin said indignantly.

“Can’t win, I’m changing tactics.”

“You should change your name to Ye Paopao…”

“You two shut up!”

Lin Qingzhu’s face darkened with anger. She kicked Lin Bin in the stomach and yelled, “Get out, you two get far away. Damn it, seeing you makes me want to kill someone.”

“Brother-in-law, retreat.”

“Shall we go for drinks tonight?!”

“Sure, Xiao Guai says she misses you so much.”

“I want two girls.”

“They’re all yours.”

As Lin Bin and Ye Zixiao ran out, they bickered. Perhaps they were speaking the truth, or perhaps they were trying to anger Lin Qingzhu. In any case, these two scoundrels were quite canine.

It must be said.

Lin Qingzhu was not very good to Ye Zixiao.

But her younger brother-in-law was truly good!
