Chapter 331: Saving Her

Tong Qianbi sobbed, “I will never forget cousin-in-law’s kindness for the rest of my life. In the future, I will serve her like a horse or a cow.”

Su Yaoguang listened to the conversation inside and left the place.

From that day on, Tong Qianbi indeed served Su Yaoguang like a horse or a cow, following her around and attending to her.

She frequently visited Hui Courtyard.

When Zhou Wangshu returned to the mansion, she didn’t tell Tong Qianbi to avoid suspicion, and often walked away, leaving Tong Qianbi alone with Zhou Wangshu.

At night, Zhou Wangshu hugged Su Yaoguang’s slender waist from behind and said, “Are you intentionally testing Tong Qianbi?”

Today Su Yaoguang pretended to check on the soup in the kitchen, leaving Tong Qianbi and Zhou Wangshu alone together.

“Is my intention that obvious?” Su Yaoguang said.

“Well, using me as bait.” Zhou Wangshu bit her cheek playfully.

“Gently…” Su Yaoguang nudged away the little puppy. “I’ve thought it through. If she approaches me with a purpose, you should be the biggest temptation. However, it seems I might have overthought it.”

Perhaps she truly is just a simple, unfortunate person.

If that’s the case, then it’s good; it means she truly saved someone pitiable.

Su Yaoguang’s test of Tong Qianbi concluded.

“Temple?” Su Yaoguang asked in confusion, “Why suddenly want to go to a temple?”

“Did cousin-in-law forget? There’s a temple fair today. I’m rarely out usually, but the fair is bustling, makes one want to see it.”

“I haven’t been to a temple fair in a long while.” Su Yaoguang became interested, “Let’s pack up and head out immediately.”

An hour later, Su Yaoguang and Tong Qianbi rode the Cheng’an Hou Mansion’s carriage to the temple fair.

Indeed bustling today, the temple fair was a sea of people. Their carriage couldn’t go inside, and they had to walk from the entrance.

Tong Qianbi led Su Yaoguang into the crowd.

Su Yaoguang looked back and saw her maid and Tong Qianbi’s maid had been scattered by the crowd.

“Too many people.” Tong Qianbi pulled Su Yaoguang in, then entered a very quiet temple.

Compared to the bustling outside, there was only the merciful Buddha statue here, not even anyone offering incense.

No, it should be said that in this small hall there was no incense, while other halls had.

Bang! Tong Qianbi struck with a karate chop.

Su Yaoguang’s head sank and she fell.

At this time, two monks appeared and dragged Su Yaoguang into the secret chamber entrance beside.

Inside the secret chamber. A masked man stood there. Tong Qianbi appeared and said to the man, “Get started!”

“Are you truly willing to change her face?” the mysterious man asked, “Although this isn’t my first time changing faces, each time carries risks. If you want to back out now, it’s still possible.”

Tong Qianbi said, “I won’t back out, go ahead!”

The mysterious man was pleased with her answer.

In fact, he didn’t really want her to back out.

He wished more people would come for a face change, so his technique would improve. He asked her to see if her resolve was firm. Only resolute people had higher chances of his face-changing technique succeeding.

The mysterious man stood in front of Su Yaoguang, taking out a silver-glinting knife from a box beside.

“I’ll first give you a pill, it will help you sleep. When you wake, the face-changing will be done. If pain starts, I’ll give you a painkiller, so it won’t hurt further. About five days later, your wound won’t hurt as much, and in ten days or so, you’ll be able to go out and meet people with your new face.”

Tong Qianbi stood before Su Yaoguang, speaking venomously, “To gain your trust, I’ve sacrificed so much. Since you’re so kind, surely you won’t bear to see me suffer such hardship. Give me your face, and I’ll help you enjoy riches and honors. Your father is mine, your mother is mine, even your man is mine. You know what? Your man is truly alluring, I really like him.”

“Enough chatter, lie down! I’m starting.” the mysterious man said.

Tong Qianbi lay beside Su Yaoguang.

She looked at Su Yaoguang’s face, eyes filled with crazed emotion.

The mysterious man fed her a pill.

After taking the pill, Tong Qianbi gradually lost consciousness.

At this time, besides the mysterious man and the two women laying, there were also two monks in the secret chamber.

The mysterious man first cut into Tong Qianbi’s face.

The sound of the knife slicing through skin was especially clear in the silent space.
