Chapter 59: Chapter 59 Too Immoral

Lan Jiaojiao returned to the cave and took out the hidden White Dragon Scale.

"Did you bring your phone?"

"I did." Qin Yi pulled out his phone and handed it over.

Lan Jiaojiao took the phone and started making calls nearby.

After finishing the call, Lan Jiaojiao walked back and said coldly, "I want to see who these people are."

Qin Yi took back his phone and laughed, "Then you wait here for your family to pick you up. I’m heading out first. Remember to give me the herbs and ten thousand yuan for the car fare tomorrow, or I’ll come to your house to collect it."

"You’re leaving?" Lan Jiaojiao asked.

"Obviously, I don’t want to get involved in your mess. Besides, it’s getting late, my wife is waiting for me at home."

Lan Jiaojiao curiously asked, "I’ve never heard of the Qin Family in Yinfeng City, who are you really?"

"I’m Qin Yi, a son-in-law from the Xia Family."

Lan Jiaojiao’s eyes widened in shock, filled with disbelief.

"You’re... you’re a son-in-law? Are you joking?"

"Not joking, my wife is Xia Yanbing. You’ve probably heard of her. I’m her husband."

Lan Jiaojiao’s mouth hung open in astonishment. She had heard of Xia Yanbing’s reputed beauty but never delved deeper, as the Xia Family was insignificant next to the Lan Family.

But Qin Yi with his mysterious abilities was a live-in son-in-law?

"You’re really not lying to me?" Lan Jiaojiao was still in disbelief.

Qin Yi couldn’t be bothered to explain further, waved his hand, and wheeled himself down the mountain.

Soon, Qin Yi reached the roadside and was dumbfounded to see not a soul in sight, let alone a car. How was he going to get back?

Unintentionally, Qin Yi spotted two black SUVs by the road. Those men in black clearly couldn’t drive them now, so he might as well borrow one.

Qin Yi loaded the wheelchair into the car, got in, but didn’t move for a while. He was recalling how others drove. Being disabled for so many years, he rarely even rode in cars.

Yes, start the engine, then press the clutch... huh, where’s the clutch?

After searching for a while, he realized the car was automatic.

After pondering for several minutes, Qin Yi finally got the car moving, but struggled with the accelerator, his hands and feet clumsy, driving in a zigzag, almost running into the roadside ditches several times.

Several times the car’s front end was hanging off, but he used energy movement to pull it back.

Luckily, he had strong control and quickly got the hang of it.

Not long after Qin Yi left, the Lan Family arrived; they weren’t far from the Lan Family estate. Leading them was Uncle Chen, whom they’d seen that afternoon.

Uncle Chen, with his men, found Lan Jiaojiao and was shocked to see men in black strewn across the ground.

"Miss, did you do all this?"

Lan Jiaojiao’s pretty face was sullen, shaking her head slightly.

Uncle Chen examined their injuries, exclaiming, "What incredible precision, the force applied was almost identical. Neither taking lives nor allowing them to wake up soon. Which expert did this?"

Lan Jiaojiao whispered, "It was Qin Yi."

"Who is Qin Yi?"

Lan Jiaojiao snapped back to reality; Uncle Chen didn’t know Qin Yi’s name.

"The one we bumped into at the herbal market this afternoon, in the wheelchair."

"Him?" Uncle Chen was shocked; his wrist, just healed, throbbed again. That man had shattered it with a shock, truly terrifying.

"Miss, what happened exactly?"

Lan Jiaojiao recounted the events.

Uncle Chen was pleasantly surprised, "You got the White Dragon Scale?"

Lan Jiaojiao held up the box, "It’s in here."

"Miss, you have such good fortune. It’s all my fault for letting you go alone."

"Uncle Chen, don’t blame yourself. I was just lucky to meet Qin Yi; otherwise, tonight could’ve ended badly."

Uncle Chen’s eyes turned fierce, "Don’t worry, Miss. I’ll find out who dared to lay a hand on you. They’re courting death."

"Miss, I’ll send someone to escort you down the mountain first."

Lan Jiaojiao nodded slightly, knowing Uncle Chen had matters to attend to.

.....

When Qin Yi returned to the Xia Family, it was already midnight. He had ditched the car in a secluded spot and caught a taxi back.

Everyone at home was probably asleep.

Qin Yi quietly opened the door but found the living room TV still on, with Xia Yanbing and Lin Hongzhuang watching it.

"Ah..." Suddenly, Lin Hongzhuang let out a scream.

Qin Yi was startled too.

Lin Hongzhuang must have sensed someone behind her, and turning around, she screamed again, piercingly.

Xia Yanbing instinctively turned, the TV’s blue light casting on Qin Yi’s face, and she shivered in fright too.

"Ghost, a ghost..." Lin Hongzhuang screamed, grabbing a pillow from the sofa and throwing it at Qin Yi.

Qin Yi didn’t dodge, it didn’t hurt anyway, but his expression darkened—this woman was definitely doing it on purpose, she clearly recognized him.

Xia Yanbing paused the TV, turning on the lights, and glanced at Qin Yi with furrowed brows, "Why are you back so late?"

Lin Hongzhuang jumped in, "See, I told you he wasn’t in his room."

Qin Yi realized Xia Yanbing thought he had been in his room the whole time.

"I left Brother Dong’s house this afternoon and just wandered around, lost track of time," Qin Yi chuckled awkwardly.

Xia Yanbing’s eyes were skeptical.

Lin Hongzhuang exclaimed, "I think you snuck in to scare us on purpose."

Qin Yi glanced at the TV, they were watching a horror movie, no wonder they screamed like pigs being slaughtered.

"Alright, get some sleep, and remember to call if you’re coming home late next time." Xia Yanbing said indifferently.

Qin Yi nodded with a smile.

"Bingbing, you’re too concerned about him. With him like this, what bad could he possibly do outside? He’s got less cash than his face, not to mention women, even thieves wouldn’t bother with him." Lin Hongzhuang said disdainfully.

Xia Yanbing tapped her forehead, "Go back to watching your TV. Talk more and I won’t keep you company. You can sleep in tomorrow, but I have to work."

"No, don’t go. I’m afraid to watch alone." Lin Hongzhuang clung to Xia Yanbing like a koala.

Qin Yi ground his teeth at this troublesome woman clinging to his wife.

"Ahem..." Qin Yi turned, a subtle mischievous smile at the corner of his mouth, catching Lin Hongzhuang’s and Xia Yanbing’s attention.

"I’ve seen that movie. The heroine lost her daughter, became lovesick, and developed severe depression. The ghosts were all her hallucinations. In the end, she accidentally kills her husband and then herself. It’s truly tragic. Goodnight!" Qin Yi finished speaking, dashed into the guest room, and locked the door before the two women could react.

"Qin Yi, I’ll kill you... you jerk, how could you spoil it, get out here."

"Alright Linlin, just keep watching, don’t mind him."

"He spoiled the whole thing; what’s the point now? He did it on purpose; he’s so mean."

Listening to Lin Hongzhuang’s roaring and Xia Yanbing’s soothing outside, Qin Yi smirked to himself... Indeed, I did it on purpose, what are you gonna do about it?
