Thousand Face Demonic Concubine Chapter 30.2

Chapter 30.2 - Forever unable to become the legitimate wife

“Qingwu, this time, it was all thanks to you. Otherwise, this father and the rest of the Lou family would likely be in danger!”

Even though it required a hundred thousand gold ingots, it was still less important than his own life and the Lou family’s honour.

Furthermore, it was Qingwu, this brat that was smart, knowing to pull down the Ruan family with them.

This way, even if the head of the Ruan family wasn’t willing, he still had to fork out the money, or he would be disobeying an imperial order.

Lou Lianxin’s eyes were almost completely rounded, “Daddy, what happened? Why …”

“Slap!” Lou Qufeng had no patience for Lou Lianxin to throw her temper around.

Normally, he still doted on her because of the Ruan family but tonight, if it wasn’t for her, nothing would’ve happened.

He hadn’t discovered before but the more he looked at his second daughter, the more gloomy he became.

How could she be so dumb as to still not understand where she went wrong?

It’s alright if she couldn’t understand everything going on at the time, but she had even dared to try to go against the emperor.

What kind of status was she using to do that?

She only needed to open her mouth once more and that would’ve completely provoked the emperor’s anger, and at that time, even if she had ten lives, she still wouldn’t have enough to chop!

Lou Lianxin didn’t think that Lou Qufeng would actually dare to slap her face in front of her everyone.

Her whole body was in shock.

Lou Qingwu’s icy cold fingers touched the cup and suddenly raised her head, speaking in a tone that wasn’t light nor heavy.

“Ah, little sister, five claws make a dragon and four claws make a serpent. You … really weren't careful.”

And that Lou Lianxin who still hadn’t understood how much trouble she had stirred up, really was so stupid that she couldn’t bear to look at her.

“Five claws make a dragon, four claws make …” Lou Lianxin covered her face as she muttered, then her face suddenly changed completely.

Her whole body started to shake as she became increasingly frightened until both of her eyes rolled backwards and she fainted.

Lou Qufeng looked at her hatefully for not meeting his expectations and was so angry his eyes were about to go straight.

But afraid of drawing attention from the emperor, he could only hurriedly get someone to sneakily carry Lou Lianxin away to ensure she wouldn’t make him lose any more face.

It was a good thing that the guests were all paying attention to the dancers in the centre of the hall and barely no one noticed that Lou Lianxin had been soundlessly carried away.

But that was only barely because there was a single Xiahou Rui who had been paying attention to them this whole time.

He narrowed his eyes as he looked at the calm girl who was sipping her tea opposite and below him as his eyes deepened to a darker black.

His mind sounded again with the words that she just spoke, words that seemed extremely ordinary and because everyone only paid attention to the hundred thousand gold ingots, he thought that it didn’t seem as simple as it was at the surface.

Her phrase “accidentally” placed all of the crime onto Lou Lianxin.

At the same time, used the army rations and hundred thousand ingots to turn away the attention to let his emperor-father loosen up.

Then followed by another attack to also mention the Ruan family.

Otherwise, on Lou Qufeng’s salary, there was no way he could take out a hundred thousand gold ingots unless he wanted to be under the suspicion for bribery.

Furthermore, the Ruan family is the richest family in the capitol, the head of the four richest families and was his relation by marriage.

If the money was forked out by them, even though it was clearly not their fault, it could be taken from them very reasonably and fairly.

It was as if she was scheming and planning all of this step by step, every step birthing a lotus.

Her thoughts were meticulous, almost frightening.

Furthermore, he had a strange thought, was that “soaring dragon in the heavens” really embroidered by Lou Lianxin?

But he couldn’t be sure because no one would use themselves and the whole Lou family to take that risk.

But everything was too coincidental, coincidental enough that the hairs on the back of his neck were standing up,

Lou Qingwu seemed to have felt Xiahou Rui’s gaze because she calmly raised her raised and met his eyes.

But she only calmly nodded her head before starting to lower her eyes again to sit down, gently and refined.

She sat like a blooming white lotus in the middle of the night, beautifully pure, virtuous and innocent.
