Thousand Face Demonic Concubine Chapter 42.2

Chapter 42.2 - Two requests

“Speak.” His icy cold word was cold and held no emotions.

Ruan Zhen clicked her tongue, “Big brother, we at least shared the same womb and the same mother. That year, I spent a lot of time scheming for you too, so this affair, I’ll have to ask big brother to help me out. So, after these two little requests, I promise I won’t bother you again.”

“Truly?” The Ruan family’s head clearly didn’t believe her words because as long as she had her ambitions and as long as he was the Ruan family’s head, she wouldn’t compromise so easily.

But even if he was clear as clear could be, he still couldn’t do anything but concede to her requests.

He lowered his eyes, hiding the flash of viciousness.

Ruan Xiuren waved his hands, “What’s your request this time?”

Ruan Zhen took out a handkerchief as she pressed the corner of her mouth, hiding the curve of her smile, “The first is that, big brother you know, the hundred thousand gold ingots. You know how the Lou family’s riches are, they’re not too rich but not too small, so I can still pay about ten thousand. I’ll have to count on big brother to pay the rest of the ninety nine thousand.”

“The second request?”

“The second request, hmm, well I’d like to know who annihilated the Huai gang in a night. I want to know who did it.”

“You’re a grand official’s wife, why do you need to know about gang affairs?”

The Ruan family’s head looked at her curiously, clearly not understanding why she’d make such a request.

He’d heard about the Huai gang’s affair but as they were a mercenary type gang, their enemies would’ve been numerous.

So if they met with a particularly vicious enemy, being completely ma.s.sacred would be an easy thing.

But no matter how much he pulled at it, he didn’t understand how she’d have any relation to their affairs.

Ruan Zhen became silent as she thought for a bit, then finally spoke, “It’s nothing really. I originally spent money for them to get rid of a person but who knew that we met with someone unexpected. I just wanted to know the person who did. Of course, the most important thing is to find if there are still any survivors of the bag. Big brother, help me deal with it, okay?”

The Huai gang couldn’t have been destroyed in a single night so obviously, if anyone gave it just a bit of thought, would be able to connect her to the reason why the gang was destroyed.

That is, if there were any scragglers left over.

These mercenaries were the reason why she wanted to see Ruan Xiuren in such a hurry.

“Who did you want to get rid of?” Ruan family’s head seemed to have grasped something, because his face instantly darkened.

His dark and cold eyes suddenly looked at her.

Sensing his anger, Ruan Zhen wasn’t scared at all, “Big brother, who else would I want to get rid of at this time?”

Ruan family’s head’s expression changed completely, “You wouldn’t dare! Ruan Zhen, I don’t care how much you mess with her, but there’s just one thing, Lou Qingwu can’t die!”

Ruan Zhen laughed, “Big brother, how can you feel comfortable with letting Lou Qingwu live? After all, she’s the daughter of  …. her and Lou Qufeng. Every day that Lou Qingwu lives is another day that she can be the living proof of her and Lou Qufeng’s previous love. You, how could you bear it?”

When the Ruan family’s heard that, his face became completely dark.

Ruan Zhen’s laughter only became deeper and particular, “Big brother, don’t worry. As your little sister, I’ve already promised to keep that secret to my grave. But before that, I obviously have to stay alive. Otherwise, in the very unlikely chance that I die, it won’t be good if those servants spread out a little something. I can’t say anything then, of course. But as big brother can bear it, then I won’t move her. If big brother doesn’t place any importance on those past affairs, then as your little sister, I can’t do anything, can I?”

Ruan family’s head: “....”

“Big brother, then do you agree to my requests or not?” Ruan Zhen twisted her handkerchief, her eyes and mouth holding a smile.

Her smiling face made you want to punch it off.

TL note:

Ruan Zhen’s face being punchable is canon. I volunteer as tribute.

Leave a comment and to see if Ruan Xiuren will agree to Ruan Zhen’s requests or not xx
