The Blessed

“What? Did you say you are gonna kill yourself before our gate? I have cleared a big space for you. Lady Jiang, please.”

Throwing a cold look at her, Ling Jingxuan then turned his sharp-as-a-knife eyes to Lady Jiang who threatened her. A moment ago, he thought she was only an ignorant village woman and meant to ignore them, but only gave them some slight punishment so they wouldn’t come make trouble again. But never thought she was such an intriguing woman trying to frame him up. Since so, why should he show mercy?

“You...”

The mother and daughter stared at him in disbelief, as if to say, why aren't you afraid?

Indeed, if it were someone else, one might have even wetted the pants already! But who is Ling Jingxuan! How would he ever take the threat from two village women?

“If you wanna die, no one will stop you! My new house happens to need some human blood to increase some horror feeling, in case some people always try to make trouble here. If you don’t wanna die, then let’s go to the village head and the old patriarch and ask them to hold the justice for us.”

His callous tone told them plainly that it was no longer a question of whether they would compromise, but whether he would spare them.

“Go then! Do you think we are afraid of you? You poisoning my mom is a fact. Even if you accuse of us before the emperor, I am not afraid.”

Quietly pulling her mother who started to shrink back again, Ling Xiaoying wore the appearance of “I’ll definitely beat you’. As long as they insisted that he poisoned her mother, what could they do? Today was the best chance to kill Ling Jingxuan! She wouldn’t miss it so easily!

“Huh? You really have a big face? You even wanna see the emperor? Not even next life!”

Yan Shengrui looked at her with disdain, like looking at an ant. Now knowing why, on hearing she mentioned the imperial family, he just felt super pissed off. Does she even deserve to mention it?

“You...hum, stop being a slick talker. When we go before the village head and the patriarch, you’d suffer!”

Ling Xiaoying was furious. Perhaps she had suffered enough insults today. She soon forgot about the sniping of Yan Shengrui and smirked with naked pride.

“No need, they're already here.”

Looking at a group of people in a hurry to run over from afar, Ling Jingxuan sarcastically raised the lips. He didn't have the time to go to them.

Hearing him, Ling Xiaoying and her mother turned around at the same time and saw that over ten people under the lead of her grandpa, Ling Qicai and the old patriarch were striding over, including Ling Chenghu who looked a lot haggard and his sons were also among, and the elders, Ling Chengcai, Ling Jinghong who were serving her grandpa by the bed and other few strong young men.

“Grandpa, you finally came, Ling Jingxuan...”

“Pa!”

Thinking their savior was here, Ling Xiaoying hurriedly took her mother to meet them, but before she finished her words, the furious old man mercilessly threw a slap in her face. Covering her face, Ling Xiaoying popped out her eyes with disbelief. How is it possible? Why did he beat her? Today was not her fault. They should be clear of that. Why beat her without a reason?

“A troublesome thing! Who sent you here? Don't you think we're not embarrassed enough, huh? Move you’re a*s back home!”

The old man stared at the mother and daughter madly. Heavenly knows how suspicious and shocked they were when they saw that the old patriarch and a few elders were walking toward their house before they arrived home after picking up Ling Chenghu from town. After making clear what had happened, he sad so mad that he nearly passed out. With his savings and the money he sold his land for, he finally bailed his third son out. Now they still dared to make trouble here. Do they really think they are super rich? Every time they came to Ling Jingxuan’s place, they’d take a beating or suffer losses. Why they still don’t know to behave? Why has he given birth to such a bunch of useless things?

“Why? Grandpa, apparently it’s Ling Jingxuan who poisoned my mom! Look at my mom’s face! Shouldn’t come claim the antidote? Grandpa, since we were little, you taught us to be filial to our parents. Now my mom is like this, as her daughter, did I do it wrong to hold justice for her?”

Ling Xiaoying totally feared no one now. Without thinking, she pushed Lady Jiang who was hiding behind her back before them. After seeing her face clearly, everyone got scared and took a few steps back, including Ling Chenghu and Ling Jingren.

“What’s happening?”

Ling Chenghu never expected that, only a few days in detain, his wife had turned into such appearance. To be honest, he was really scared.

“What’s happening? Don’t you know, dad? The day when you came here, mom got poisoned by that son of a b*tch Ling Jingxuan!”

Their shocking appearance gave Ling Xiaoying a lot of courage. They thought they believed what she said, so her words were harsher, but the word filial sounded so ironic when coming out of her mouth.

“No, it's impossible. Ling Jingxuan...”

Ling Chenghu subconsciously wanted to say Ling Jingxuan did not get close to them at all. How could he have poisoned her? But on thinking that it was his wife and daughter, if he said so, it meant to indirectly sentence them to death. So he swallowed those words that were nearly at the mouth back. Whatsoever, they had to get out of here first. Ling Jingxuan was too heartless. He had suffered enough from him. Until now, his butt was still painful like hell. He didn’t want his daughter to take this like him.

“What do you mean by saying impossible? My mom said it herself. How could it be false?”

In spite of her father's mood, Ling Xiaoying contradicted him in a shrill voice. Old Lord Ling gave her a stern look and lifted his eyes to look at Ling Jingxuan and Yan Shengrui nearby. His eyes could not help flashing. To be honest, he was also afraid of them. If possible, he’d rather not visit each other all their lives. But…Alas! That was his family’s misfortune!

“Big brother, I don't think it is that simple. Maybe we should bring Chenghu’s wife and daughter home first. Ling Jingxuan invited a lot of guests today. As the elder, we should show him some face. Even if it’s really him, we can talk about it after today, otherwise, our old Ling family will really become famous throughout the whole Datong town.”

Afraid that he would get ashamed into anger and did something silly again, Ling Qicai leaned over and said in whispers. He always felt that something wasn’t right about this. They had ever seen how Ling Jingxuan’s poisoned worked. Totally unlike Lady Jiang’s symptoms. Besides, why did she have the poison attack no sooner or later, but right at the time while they were away from home? He didn’t think Lady Jiang and Ling Xiaoying were some well-behaved people. What if they took act rashly and offended Ling Jingxuan, then…they’d also suffer with them.

“Well, what you said is reasonable.”

Ling Qiyun gently nodded. He had seen what Ling Jingxuan, including Ling Jinghan, were capable of. Before they were one hundred percent sure, he wouldn’t take the initiative to provoke them, and his home couldn’t suffer another blow.

“Are you finished? Is it my turn now?”

No one noticed when Ling Jingxuan moved over and suddenly opened his mouth, with bitingly coldness in his eyes. Anyone who looked into his eyes, be it old or young, all had a shudder in the heart and hurriedly looked away. Now Ling Jingxuan was already not someone they could cope with.
