Chapter 494: Consolidating Each Step

What an idiot Tu Xiupei was! She still didn’t realize that she had aroused Brother Jin’s suspicion about her ident.i.ty as Shen Qingdai. If it wasn’t for the sake of getting engaged to Brother Jin, she wouldn’t have kept Tu Xiupei around until now.

“How are you going to help me?” Tu Xiupei frowned. She wanted Brother Jin to completely believe that she was Shen Qingdai.

Shen Yunya glanced at her. “Dream.”

Feng Tianlan had taken a nap during the day, so she was in good spirits in the middle of the night. She was talking to Si Mobai when she suddenly felt a spiritual force coming towards their room from outside at a tremendous speed. She couldn’t help but keep her guard up. Could it be a killer?

“It’s Xi Jin.” Si Mobai discerned the aura of the spiritual force.

Feng Tianlan frowned. “Let’s go outside and take a look.”

Just as they went out of the room and stood at the corridor, Xi Jin’s figure flashed past and landed on the corridor of Xianyue Building which was at the opposite of theirs. His figure then disappeared in a blink of an eye. She couldn’t help but frown.

That was Tu Xiupei’s room, why did Brother Jin go in?

After seeing her expression, Si Mobai took her by the waist and made a light jump. They landed on the corridor of the opposite building, then stood by the door. They saw Xi Jin hugging Tu Xiupei who was pale as a sheet and drenched in sweat. His gentle voice sounded extremely anxious. “It’s okay, Dai’er. There is no blood. There are no corpses. Those are all fake.”

“Father… Mother… Blood… So much blood. So many corpses.” Tu Xiupei shut her eyes tightly. Her voice was s.h.i.+vering. She was full of fear as if she had drowned. Her hands were clutching Xi Jin’s s.h.i.+rt tightly. “No! Save me, Brother Jin. Boohoo… Save me, Brother Jin!

“Brother Jin, believe me, I didn’t push her. I didn’t…”

After seeing this scene and hearing those words, Feng Tianlan felt as if she had been splashed by a bucket of cold water. She saw this scene right before her eyes.

“Miss Feng—” Just as Shen Yunya was about to speak, the two figures looking in from outside the door disappeared immediately. She frowned. However, her doubt was dispelled in a blink of an eye.

When Feng Tianlan’s expression began to change, Si Mobai carried her back to her room immediately. It was also to prevent Shen Yunya from discovering them.

“Mobai.” Feng Tianlan grabbed onto his sleeve. Anger and helplessness could be seen in her eyes. “She lied to Brother Jin again.”

Tu Xiupei was lying to Brother Jin. These reactions were the nightmares she used to have all the time. Brother Jin had always been by her side. Jiang Ying, on the other hand, was never around whenever she had these nightmares.

“I must kill her.” Lest she constantly worried and fretted about Xi Jin getting duped.

Feng Tianlan shook her head. “There is no need for that. After this incident, Brother Jin will completely believe her.”

Feng Tianlan leaned on his shoulder. “The only thing we can do is to get them to leave this place as soon as possible and use an indirect way to remind Brother Jin that Tu Xiupei is a fake.”

If they remained here before she could become stronger, Shen Yunya would suspect her quickly after observing her for a time. This would not be beneficial for her.

“Stop calling him Brother Jin from now on.” Si Mobai felt anger burning in his heart after hearing her repeatedly calling Xi Jin, Brother Jin.

“Mobai—”

“No matter what your reason is, I will not allow it.” She belonged to him. He wouldn’t allow her to call someone else so intimately.

Feng Tianlan raised her head and looked into his peach blossom eyes, which were filled with rage. Then, she nodded gently. “Alright.”
