The Yandere Queen's Manual for Training Her Wife - Chapter 12

Xie An on the other end of the phone was still enumerating Ji Yanming’s various disgraceful acts of late. Qin Yan didn’t say a word, she was a good listener.

As she descended the mountain, she switched the phone to her other hand. Passing a mountain pavilion, she heard a rustling sound behind her. The alertness she had been trained to have for so long instantly switched her from relaxed to on guard.

“Talk to you later.”

Xie An’s unfinished words disappeared into a busy signal. The moment Qin Yan pressed the hang-up button, she turned and threw her phone like a hidden weapon directly behind a big tree, while quickly flashing close.

The person hiding behind the tree was hit on the right shoulder, and the bullet they were aiming for went astray.

The person originally wanted to aim again, but Qin Yan had already appeared beside them, grabbed their wrist, and disarmed the gun in their hand.

As a professional assassin, one would naturally not only carry one weapon when on a mission. The moment they were caught, the assassin’s left hand pulled out a sharp knife hidden in their pants leg and stabbed it toward Qin Yan’s chest with great speed and precision.

Qin Yan’s right hand was busy at this time, and her left hand had been injured, so she couldn’t directly restrain the assassin’s other hand. In the nick of time, she arched backward, drawing a beautiful arc to dodge the fatal blow.

Before the person could press their advantage, she was the first to use a “carp flip” followed by a “sweeping autumn leaves kick” to kick the person to the ground.

By the time the assassin came to their senses, their chest was being pressed down by a pair of brown vintage leather shoes. The woman who was stepping on them had a cold face, which gave off a chilling aura, as if she were a ghost from purgatory.

“I don’t want to kill people. Go back and tell the person who sent you that the next time we meet, I’ll return everything they’ve given me, multiplied.”

Qin Yan slowly squatted down, picked up the man’s still trembling right hand, and felt the finger bones, breaking them one by one. “Don’t always use knives and guns, it’s not conducive to social harmony.”

The man let out a series of miserable screams that echoed in the empty mountains.

Finally, pale-faced and drenched in sweat, he fled in a panic under Qin Yan’s “great mercy.”

Qin Yan watched the man’s hurried back, took out a handkerchief, and meticulously wiped her already clean hands again, then threw the handkerchief into the trash can next to the pavilion.

As she approached the trash can, she caught a glimpse of a piece of cloth sticking out from the side of the pavilion. The color looked familiar.

“Come out.”

Xia Mingtang had been watching the show from the side for a long time. When she heard Qin Yan speak, she obediently came out from behind the pavilion.

Good heavens, she had only found out where Qin Yan was and wanted to pick her up for dinner, but she didn’t expect to witness such a thrilling scene.

When Qin Yan saw the person in front of her, her feelings were a bit complex, and her expression was much colder than usual. “You saw everything?”

When she said this, her eyes were not on Xia Mingtang, but turned to the clouds in the distance, and she closed her eyes slightly.

She originally didn’t want to show such an unpleasant side of herself to this person, but now that it had come to this…

Xia Mingtang saw that Boss Qin no longer had her previous intimidating aura and bravely moved forward, her beautiful big eyes sparkling with excitement.

“I saw everything. That set of moves you just did was so cool. What’s it called? Who taught you? Can you teach me?”

Qin Yan: Now that it’s come to this, I can only…

Huh?

Seeing that Qin Yan was silent, Xia Mingtang thought she was still considering it. She took one of Qin Yan’s hands and swayed it while trying to persuade her.

“What a pity it would be if this beautiful and unique skill of yours were lost. Boss Qin, Sister Qin, please teach me~”

Xia Mingtang’s voice was already sweet and nimble like a young girl, especially now that she was deliberately acting spoiled.

Qin Yan opened her eyes, turned to look at the person in front of her, and tried to keep her tone calm when she spoke: “Weren’t you afraid of the way I was just now?”

Xia Mingtang thought Qin Yan was testing her, so she patted her chest with one hand to show her determination. “I’m not afraid. I’m smart and hardworking. As long as you’re willing to teach me, I can learn even the most difficult moves!”

Qin Yan was silent for two seconds and decided to be more direct with a certain person. “What I mean is, the way I was just now was a little… unfriendly.”

Xia Mingtang blinked her eyes in great confusion. “Didn’t they attack first? Why should I be friendly?”

She saw that Qin Yan didn’t say anything, but her desire to express herself was now strong. “I think you’re still too kind. If anyone dared to attack me first, I’d beat them to a pulp. Grandma always says I’m too aggressive and not elegant enough, and I also want to beat people up elegantly.”

As she spoke, she gestured with her hands. “Just like you did just now, ‘Hey, ho!'”

Qin Yan: …

“Has anyone ever told you that you’re a bit simple-minded?”

“Who dares to talk nonsense? I’ll beat them so hard they’ll be looking for their teeth all over the floor. I’m full of tricks, eight hundred of them, and I’m very clever.” Xia Mingtang waved her fists. The first half of the sentence was said with indignation, but the second half was full of pride.

Qin Yan gave her a silent look, then turned and walked away.

Completely ignored, Xia Mingtang followed her like a tail. “Sister, don’t just walk away without saying anything. You haven’t agreed yet. Where are you going now?”

“To fix my phone.” Qin Yan retrieved her phone, which had been thrown at the foot of the big tree, and pressed the power button twice. Sure enough, it didn’t light up.

“Then I’ll go with you!” Xia Mingtang, who was left behind, hurried her steps and ran smack into Qin Yan’s back.

“Hiss~” Qin Yan stood still and sucked in a breath, holding her waist with one hand, her dark brows slightly furrowed.

“Sorry, does it hurt a lot? Let me see!” Xia Mingtang instinctively reached out to touch Qin Yan’s waist, but she cleverly dodged to the side.

Xia Mingtang missed, but her concern didn’t lessen. “Did you hurt it when you arched backward just now? Sister, is your back not so good? It’s okay, I’ll help you.”

Qin Yan, whose back was “not so good,” was now being supported by the enthusiastic citizen, Xia Mingtang, as they walked down the mountain.

The winter forest was cool and quiet, and only Xia Mingtang’s chattering could surpass dozens of sparrows.

Qin Yan, who had just been through a fight, had a ringing in her ears and didn’t really want to talk, but…

“You’re walking in the wrong direction.”
