Alluring His Wife: The Evil King's Fifth Consort Chapter 270

Su Ye had never seen Yan He like this before. In her memory, this man was either greedy, l.u.s.tful, gentle, or arrogant. However, this was the first time such a vicious and ice-cold expression appeared on his face.

Su Lei opened her mouth and said indifferently: "Zhang San, tell me what you know. Manager isn't a person who loves killing, not to mention you've followed him for three whole years, even if you don't have any merits, you still have to work hard. Maybe he will forgive you for your hard work."

As if encouraged, Zhang San revealed all the details of his plan, "Master, I was blinded by the lard for a while, and Second Madam said that after the matter was settled, she would give me a large sum of silver coins to return to my hometown, and even return my indenture contract to me."

Zhang San was a smart person, he naturally knew what he had to say to reduce Yan He's anger and explain himself.

She tried to make her last struggle: "Husband, please don't listen to the slanderous words of others. I have never thought of harming my husband's life by serving him wholeheartedly."

She really was an idiot. She actually admitted defeat.

Wei Yuanwei laughed coldly: "Second Madam, how do you know what Zhang San is going to say next?"

Su Ye suddenly realized that she had blurted something. Just as she was about to say something, Yan He coldly said, "Someone, seal the Second Madam's mouth."

When the servant girl standing by the side saw that the old master's expression was not good, she immediately tied up Su Ye and stuffed him into a mouth with a rag. They were used to seeing the expressions of others, so they naturally knew that the Second Madam was probably done with them.

Yan He coldly looked at Zhang San, who trembled as he said, "The Second Madam originally planned to poison the head storekeeper and the First Madam to marry that brother and sister, then order me to ambush them at the entrance of the village and beat them up. Afterwards, I will drag them to the officials."

Zhang San hid a lot of things from Yan He, such as his affair with her, and how they ended up sharing Yan He's fortune, but the part he said was enough for Yan He to sentence Su Ye to death in his heart.

Yan He looked at Su Ye coldly. At this moment, he could no longer use his anger to describe his feelings. The veins on his forehead were bulging and bulging. His eyes were filled with endless disappointment and disbelief.

Yan He slowly walked in front of Su Ye and gently lifted the rag from her mouth, "Su Ye, I have been very good to you these past few years."

He had even indulged her in insulting Su Lei, and had even urged her to do so. He had wanted to divorce her many times, but he didn't expect that she would want to poison him to death, she was truly a beautiful snake and scorpion! Could it be that all these years of being meek and considerate towards him was just an act?

Seeing Yan He being so gentle with him, Su Ye thought that he was still reluctant to part with her. Su Ye quickly said, "Master, Zhang San was a bad person in the first place, he was the one who made the fire a few years ago. Master, you have to believe me."

Yan He thought back to the fire a few years ago. Back then, it was New Year's Eve, he and a few stewards drank a few more cups of wine before he slept in his room, he could not remember what happened afterwards, he vaguely remembered that after Su Lei rescued her, it was Zhang San who led the helpers and extinguished the fire. At that time, he even gave Zhang San a few silver ingots, he did not expect that the culprit was actually Zhang San.

Yan He looked at Zhang San with a murderous look, causing Zhang San to tremble in fear.

In order to survive, Zhang San hurriedly revealed everything that Su Ye had done before, "Manager, the Second Madam is a vicious woman. It was the Second Madam who did the trick behind the Second Madam's back when she was unable to get pregnant."

She was so shy that she couldn't speak. Her mother let out a sigh as she ordered Su Ye to bring in a bowl of medicine, saying that the concoction was an aid to pregnancy, and the daughter-in-law of Eldest w.a.n.g next door got pregnant after drinking it. Su Lei drank it without thinking, and then she felt a slight pain in her stomach, thinking that her normal reaction wasn't that great.

Zhang San and Su Ye were like dogs biting each other. They told each other a lot of things, such as Su Ye spending money on the medicine shop and Zhang San stealing herbs all the time. The two of them stared at each other with bloodshot eyes as if they wanted to give each other a fatal blow.

"Enough! The person who came in here dragged the two of them out and threw them into the water well. He told the others that the Second Madam had committed suicide. The shop a.s.sistant, Zhang San, went up to save them and also fell into the water well. After saying this, Yan He slowly closed his eyes. The two people he trusted the most had actually dealt him fatal damage.

Zhang San was completely confused. He did not bother with etiquette as he hugged Yan He's thigh and said, "Master, I was the one who exposed Second Madam's crime, not to mention I have worked so hard for so many years. Does Master not care about the relations.h.i.+p between us over so many years?"

Wei Yuanwei coldly snorted in her heart. Yan He did not even care about the relations.h.i.+p between him and Su Ye, how could she care about the relations.h.i.+p between a young lad? Ridiculous.

Yan He waved his hand and the a.s.sistant came forward to tie up Zhang San and drag him down.

Su Ye trembled as she kneeled on the ground. She did not expect Yan He to be this heartless. It was over, it was over, everything was over. No matter what she said, it was all in vain.

She looked at Su Lei as if she was begging for help, she knew that this sister of hers was the most soft-hearted, she begged: "Sister, I don't want to die, hurry up and save me, now mother is seriously ill, if I were to meet with any accident, won't mother be heartbroken?"

Su Lei said plainly: "You and I are sisters after all, I naturally won't just watch you die."

Su Lei tilted her head and looked at Yan He, "Old master, please spare my sister!"

Su Lei knew Yan and this person too well. She knew that even if she begged for help, Yan He would not easily let Su Ye go. Indeed, Yan He thought for a while and said, "You can avoid death, but you will not be able to escape."

Yan He walked to Su Ye's side and motioned for the servant girl to tie her up. He then quietly received a pot of boiling tea and gently poured it on Su Ye's face.

His expression was faint, yet serious, and there was even a hint of cruelty in his expression, causing one to feel a chill run down their spine just by looking at him.
