Chapter 4095 — Furious Beyond Measure, He Wants to Kill
The Blossom Guardian · Page 1 of 3
For the better part of a year, she had spent nearly every day trying to discreetly inquire after Wei Zhao's whereabouts, but no matter which channels she used, the result was always the same: not a trace of news. No one even knew who Wei Zhao was.
She had never expected that now, just as she was on the verge of complete despair, the man she had yearned for day and night would appear, and she would finally feel once more the real warmth of an embrace.
Fate had played a cruel joke on her, but at least it had not abandoned her entirely.
Xue Li's reaction caught Wei Zhao somewhat off guard. He did not know what she had endured over the past six months, but as a man, what he had to do at this moment was simply hold her quietly and let her pour out all her grievances to her heart's content.
Gently stroking Xue Li's somewhat thinned back, Wei Zhao felt a faint surprise. In his memory her figure had once been quite full, yet after only a few months apart she had grown so thin. The bitterness and suffering revealed in that change stirred an ache of pity in him that he could not suppress.
Buried in Wei Zhao's embrace like that, Xue Li wept for a long while before she finally gradually recovered. She lifted her face, tears streaking her cheeks like rain on pear blossoms, and gazed at Wei Zhao in a way that could not help but intoxicate.
"There now, Xue Li, tell me—what on earth happened to you these past six months? How did you grow so thin?" Wei Zhao could not help asking.
"Mm." Xue Li nodded obediently and at once began to recount everything to Wei Zhao in full detail. A bellyful of bitterness and grievance was exactly what needed a listening ear.
Meanwhile, Sima Qian—no, Situ Qian—who was watching every movement in the room through the MP4, saw the two of them locked tightly in each other's arms and was beside herself with delight.
Though there was only picture and she could not hear a word of what they were saying, in her view this was already entirely enough.
Originally, according to her plan, once she had drugged this Ling Yi she would send him in to forcibly push Xue Li down, and that would be that. When the time came she would simply claim this was Xue Li's lover; whether Senior Brother Wei believed it or not, the rice would already be cooked, and all he could do was kill the pair of adulterers to vent his fury.
And none of it would have anything to do with her, Situ Qian. She could shift the whole blame by saying the lover had sneaked in on his own, and that she had only learned of it afterward from the surveillance footage.
But the scene before her eyes now completely exceeded her expectations. The two of them had gone straight into each other's arms the moment they entered, billing and cooing with not the faintest trace of coercion. Now there was even foreplay—it was simply too perfect, too lifelike!
"Just as I thought—that shameless woman looks pure as ice and jade, but she is nothing but a wanton slut who will take even a coarse, vulgar wild man like this. She really is wanton beyond all bounds! Hmph, and she still dares to compete with me for Senior Brother Wei—does a cheap wretch like her deserve such good fortune?" Situ Qian cursed to herself, her face full of smug satisfaction.
From her angle she could not see that Xue Li was crying; she could only see the two of them tightly entwined. So whether they went further afterward no longer mattered—this passage alone was proof enough that Xue Li had a wild man on the outside, and Senior Brother Wei would never want a filthy, unclean woman like that.
Her scheme had succeeded, and with unexpected smoothness. Situ Qian instantly grew impatient and at once sent someone to call Xiao Qiuhua back—the next step could begin right away!
