Chapter 670 Two People's Wishes (23)
The fact that a love triangle involving a mother, daughter, and a man would happen between Xiong Bufan and Li Han was something Li Han never expected.
But she had to deal with Mei first. If that didn't work, she would send him far away. As for Xiong Bufan, she didn't dare to touch him.
Mei looked at the two menacing thugs in the room, then at Li Han, and immediately slid down to her knees in front of Li Han, "Madam, I am innocent!"
"When have I wronged you? You promiscuous, shameless woman, how dare you have an affair with the young master."
Mei looked at Li Han, knowing that she couldn't fool him this time, and hugged Li Han's leg, saying, "I have a heart full of love for you, Madam. Everything I do is for you."
Li Han grew increasingly angry. "Still trying to argue? They all saw you deliver things to the young master."
"How diligent! He doesn't stop for a whole month. Whenever the young master is at Xiaoyao Garden, he goes there without a break."
Mei: "Madam, yes, yes," Mei said, her voice slightly stammering, and she seemed a little afraid.
Li Han: "What is it?"
"It was the young master who coerced me."
Mei was gambling, betting that Xiong Bufan and Li Xianyu didn't get along, and betting that Li Han wouldn't go to Xiong Bufan to verify.
Li Han fell silent upon hearing this. She, too, had been coerced and harmed by that person before.
Seeing this, Mei knew she had a chance and said, "I am deeply in love with you, Madam. If I had a choice, I would definitely want to stay as far away from the young master as possible."
Madam, you have misunderstood me. I might as well be dead.
"Don't let those gossipy blabbermouths spread rumors and sow discord between me and my wife."
Seeing Mei rush towards the pillar beside him, Li Han felt more trust in him and quickly said to the burly guard beside him, "Hurry up and stop Young Master Mei."
"Yes."
Seeing that someone was blocking her way, Mei pretended to run even faster.
Just as Mei was about to crash into the pillar, she was stopped by the guards.
Li Han felt sorry for Mei and went over to hug her. "Don't bump into her, my darling. Do you know how much my heart jumped when you ran over there?"
What will I do if you die?
"Madam~"
It wasn't appropriate for the two burly men to stand in the room, so at Li Han's wave, they left the room with the maid and servants, thoughtfully closing the door behind them.
Mei's eyes were brimming with tears, a sight that evoked pity in me. He knew that this was the most beautiful angle for him.
“Madam, others misunderstand me and slander me. I originally thought you trusted me, but I didn’t expect you to be just like them. I’d rather die.” After saying this, Mei tried to break free from Li Han’s embrace.
Seeing this, Li Han quickly hugged him and pressed him down, saying, "Mei, you know my heart, please don't do anything to hurt us anymore."
"Madam~"
......
When the two of them came out, it was already the morning of the next day.
Li Han was in high spirits, while Mei looked shy and bashful.
However, her progress in winning over Xiong Bufan has been delayed again. Mei didn't expect that old woman Li Han would keep such a close eye on her. She just has to think of another way.
To obtain a contract of servitude, he first took care of the elderly and then served the young, which was no easy task.
There were simply too many servants attending to Xiong Bufan, so when Mei didn't approach him, he only sent someone to inquire about it and didn't do anything else.
When Mei heard that Xiong Bufan had sent someone to inquire about her, she lowered her head and cried. She gave her maid some silver and told her to go back and keep it a secret from Xiong Bufan that she was not doing well.
Regardless of whether Mei was doing well or not, Xiong Bufan took the money Mei had given to the maid and watched the performance thoughtfully. After a moment, he said, "Go tell Mei to perform as soon as possible. I'm not going to support someone who just wants to freeload."
"Yes."
Kongkong can see things from two perspectives, and he has a fairly clear understanding of the situation involving Mei, Xiong Bufan, and Li Han. "Bufan, that Mei is sowing discord."
He also employed the "beauty trap" strategy from military tactics.
Xiong Bufan: "He's not a beauty, and he smells awful."
Kongkong: "Bufan, what do you plan to do?"
"Just kill him, that'll end it all. I don't like all this scheming and backstabbing, it's too much of a burden for Xiong."
"Alright."
Kongkong originally thought that Xiong Bufan would keep Mei for a while so that he could sell himself to make money for him, but he didn't expect him to be so decisive.
Xiong Bufan acted immediately, standing up and leaving the private room.
Mei was still waiting for Xiong Bufan's reaction, and even hoped that Xiong Bufan and Li Han would fight, so that he could reap the benefits.
A gust of wind blew through the room, and by the time Mei realized what was happening, he had already stopped breathing.
Mei lay on the ground, her throat slit by a sword, as if she were asleep.
Xiong Bufan didn't like torturing or killing others; she preferred quick and decisive battles.
The corpse would ruin the business he had worked so hard to build. Xiong Bufan pulled out a gun from his pocket, and just like in the previous world, after the bullet was fired, the corpse and the gun disappeared into the air together.
This world still doesn't allow interstellar weapons to exist, but this amount of time is enough to deal with the corpses.
Xiong Bufan is now so skilled at killing and disposing of bodies that she has become a qualified assassin.
After doing all this, Xiong Bufan acted as if nothing had happened, strolled around, and left to continue watching the performance in his private room.
While Li Han was doing the accounting, she suddenly felt a pain in her chest and then stopped.
If you do too much physical work, your body will react.
Li Han put down the abacus and ledger, rubbed her chest with her hand, her eyes full of smiles. She couldn't help but be happy at the thought of meeting Mei that evening.
"Someone, come with me to the Treasure Pavilion."
"Yes."
Now that the two have finally cleared up their misunderstanding, Li Han felt that he should treat Mei better, so he bought her a white jade and emerald hairpin from Zhenbaoge.
Mei will be very happy to see the hairpin at night.
Seeing that Wang Shuyi hadn't bought any jewelry since arriving in Baicheng, Granny Gao persuaded her to come and take a look since she had some time today.
Even in Baicheng, women would adorn their hair with many ornaments, but their young lady's head was bald, making her look inferior.
Wang Shuyi didn't want to come, but she was persuaded to come by Granny Gao.
The two groups met at the entrance of the Treasure Pavilion. Although Wang Shuyi had long suspected that Li Han and the others were doing well in Baicheng, she did not expect them to be doing this well.
Even when Li Han travels, she is always accompanied by seven or eight people, making her a large and impressive entourage wherever she goes.
There was no sign of the cowardly and bullied demeanor one might expect from someone in the mansion; indeed, wealth and privilege nurture character.
Li Han had no idea that Li Dan was dead and that the entire Li family had been exiled. She thought Wang Shuyi had come looking for them, demanding compensation and taking her back. Terrified, she turned and ran with her men.
In her mind, the First Madam was terrifying, and the Wang family was incredibly powerful.
