"Take her downstairs and lock her up in Li family's Dark Prison cell. No one is allowed to touch her without my permission..."
Li Mubai waved his hand.
He wanted Xia He to handle Leng Qianxue, whose heart and soul now were in disarray.
As he wouldn't find such an interesting lady assassin elsewhere, he didn't want to put an end to her right away...
As he had already burnt the Protagonist's bones to ashes, Leng Qianxue no longer had her heroine identity. So, he could harvest a lot of Qi points from her with ease.
But as he wanted to maximize his benefits, Li Mubai didn't immediately take action on her. If he did, how could he still be worthy of his Villain identity?...
"Master, you..."
As she heard Li Mubai instructions of taking Leng Qianxue to the Dark Prison cell, Xiao Qingcheng couldn't help but hesitantly open her mouth. It was because Li Mubai had previously promised her that he would let go of Leng Qianxue.
"What's wrong?"
Li Mubai playfully looked at her.
"Didn't Master promise me that you would let Qianxue go?..."
Gritting her teeth, Xiao Qingcheng asked.
Her voice was very faint.
Her gentle voice sounded like a water stream in the morning.
Once the Ice-cold beauty turns gentle, it would be a completely different story.
With a smile, Li Mubai said to her, "I did promise you. But I only promised you that I would no longer hang her. I never spoke anything of letting her go..."
"But..."
Xiao Qingcheng's heartstrings were tugged.
Though she had paid such a huge price, she not only failed in saving Leng Qianxue but even ended up severing her relationship with Leng Qianxue.
Her nose turned a little sour...
She felt even more aggrieved compared to when she was 'punished' by Li Mubai...
This is the first time for her to feel so helpless and aggrieved ever since she remembered...
"Don't worry. I'd just temporarily lock her up. I won't kill her..."
Li Mubai spoke at the right time.
"Thank you..."
After muttering these words, Xiao Qingcheng buried her head into his arms. Her eyes turned a little misty.
This might be her last bit of comfort...
"Is it just a thank you?..."
A 'nonchalant' smile surfaced on Li Mubai's face.
He once again flipped her body over and...
"Well..."
...
"Young Master, Butler Yan is here for you..."
Dong Xue who was blushing at the side informed him.
"Can't you see your Young Master is busy? Tell him to wait a little longer!"
"Yes, Young Master!"
...
Two hours later.
Li Mubai walked out through the Villa's door.
"Young Master, you've kept me waiting for a while!"
An old man dressed in fancy white clothes saw him and helplessly smiled at him.
He was Uncle Yan, the butler of the Li family Manor.
He was also someone trusted by his own grandfather Li Kunyuan, the current head of the Li family.
"Uncle Yan, You've disturbed the dream I was having this morning. It's reasonable for me to let Uncle Yan wait a little longer!"
Li Mubai rather gave him an unpleasant look.
The dissatisfaction in his tone was almost written on his face.
Of course, this was what he had been deliberately doing.
After all, the previous Li Mubai was a living scum except for his deep love for Xiao Qingcheng.
"Haha, I'm afraid I would dare to disturb Young Master's bright dream..."
Uncle Yan wryly smiled at him. But didn't try to reveal his intentions to Li Mubai.
"Why are you looking for me?"
Li Mubai turned to look at the other side and asked.
"I am not the one looking for you. It's the Master..."
"Huh?"
Li Mubai frowned.
"Grandpa is looking for me? Is there something wrong?..."
"It's regarding the assassin from the Xiao family..."
"Hmm... I see."
Li Mubai nodded his head.
When Li Mubai instructed Xia He to take Leng Qianxue to the Dark Prison cell, he also told her to disclose the matter to the entire Li family.
After all, Xiao Qingcheng still hasn't fulfilled her promise of serving him for a week. So, it didn't seem like he was breaking his promise.
As for what he had promised her last night was only to put Leng Qianxue down...
Hehe~
He wanted to toy with her.
He never had any intentions to let Xiao Qingcheng get away from his clutches...
At first, he only wanted to tease her a little. But now, he didn't know what methods his Grandpa would employ to deal with the Xiao family...
