Too Late to Regret, She’s Now With the Big Boss - Chapter 36

“You’re having him stab me? Not you?” Was this what she thought it was? Ye Qingyan stared at Bai Lang with expectant eyes.

No wonder he was rumored to be involved with Third Master Lu. Assistant Bai wasn’t just good-looking, he had a great figure too, complete with an eight-pack.

Bai Lang watched as the delicate and beautiful Ye Qingyan shamelessly ogled him like some kind of female rogue.

“Ah!” A blood-curdling scream tore through the air as Ye Qingyan’s eyes rolled back, the pain knocking her out cold.

“Devils! if you’ve got the guts, come at me! What kind of man bullies a young girl?” Xie Yun roared furiously upon seeing her daughter faint from the needle.

Her daughter had been pampered since childhood, the apple of everyone’s eye, with an especially low pain tolerance, nothing like Ye Qianqian, who had grown up in the countryside and could endure much more.

“A man? Didn’t you just call us devils? You want me to come at you? Too bad… I’m sticking with her.”

As he spoke, Bai Lang intensified his movements, switching fingers and jabbing Ye Qingyan again with brutal force.

“A young girl? Since when do young girls steal other people’s grooms?” Ding Fan smirked, locking eyes with Xie Yun before suddenly driving a needle into the back of her armpit.

Xie Yun’s agonized shriek shot straight to the ceiling before reverberating back down, bouncing between the floor and the ceiling in a spine-chilling echo.

Ye Qingyan, jolted awake by Bai Lang’s rough treatment, screamed in terror, “What the hell are you howling for? Just give them whatever they want!”

“……” Dazed with pain, Xie Yun didn’t know how to respond. Who was she even enduring this for?

“A wise man submits to circumstances. Miss Ye is certainly more sensible. All we want is for her to return the luck she stole from our Madam.”

“Your Madam? Who? Ye Qianqian?” Ye Qingyan asked, jealousy dripping from her voice.

“Mhm, our Madam is the Second Miss Ye. Feeling envious?” Ding Fan kicked Xie Yun while asking.

“That’s hilarious! Don’t you know she grew up in the countryside? Why would I ever be jealous of some country bumpkin?

“Are you sure you’ve got the right person? Vice President Xie would never steal luck from a peasant!” Ye Qingyan sneered.

“What does growing up in the countryside matter? Our Madam is the biological daughter of the Ye Group’s president. Her luck is naturally excellent.”

Suddenly struck by inspiration, Bai Lang angrily snapped, “You black-hearted wretch! It must be because you stole our Madam’s good fortune!

“That’s why your daughter has had nothing but luck even getting caught red-handed by her husband and still forgiven!

“And that’s why our Madam suffered, stuck in the countryside, enduring hardship. You vile, ruthless creature! Ding Fan, break her legs!”

Crack. ah! Crack. ah! Two bone-snapping sounds were followed by two piercing screams as Xie Yun’s kneecaps were shattered.

“You broke her legs… you won’t break mine too, right?” Ye Qingyan asked, still trembling with fear.

“That depends on whether she cooperates,” Bai Lang said offhandedly.

To his surprise, Ye Qingyan was even more eager than he was. “Then hurry up and splash cold water on her to wake her up!”

“……” Bai Lang and Ding Fan exchanged a glance: This woman is ruthless and heartless, no wonder she stole her sister’s groom.

Xie Yun, who hadn’t fully passed out: “……”

Ye Qianqian, being carried by Lu Jingchen to the basement door: “……”

[HAHAHAHA! Better the priest perishes than the parishioner even if it’s her own mother, no special treatment! The female lead is adorable!]

[The female lead’s mom wasn’t fully unconscious before, but now she’s fainted for good out of sheer rage.]

[Hilarious! Before passing out, the female lead’s birth mother was still thinking protecting a daughter like this was worse than protecting a piece of char siu pork.]

[Wonder if the female lead’s birth mother still remembers burying a box containing the females antagonist’s hair and nails under the big tree at the entrance of her hometown village.]

Ye Qianqian: I get it now!

“Master, Madam, you’re here. Would you like to watch from the sofa or take matters into your own hands?”

“Darling, what do you think?” Lu Jingchen held Ye Qianqian in a princess carry, refusing to let go.

“Just watch from the sofa. Didn’t you tell them to splash Ye Qingyan with ice water to wake her up? Why hasn’t it been done yet?”

“Yes, Madam. I’ll call for someone to bring the ice water right away.” Bai Lang spoke while dialing.

“Splash her with ice water? Ye Qianqian, how can you be so cruel? Aunt Yun treated you well before!” Ye Qingyan shrieked.

“Pfft. why don’t you ask them who’s really the cruel one here?” Ye Qianqian sneered.

“They’re all Third Master Lu’s people. Right now, he’s still somewhat intrigued by you, so of course they’ll favor you. But with how vicious you are, he’ll tire of you soon. Let’s see how long you can keep gloating!”

“Shut your mouth! What’s the difference between cold water and ice water? Besides, the real black-hearted one is your mother! Should I post the video online and let everyone judge who’s worse?” Ding Fan retorted disdainfully.

“Posting the video online is a great idea. Ding Fan, you’re so clever.” Ye Qianqian gave a thumbs-up in praise.

Lu Jingchen shot Ding Fan a sharp glare: Don’t you dare steal the spotlight in front of my wife again.

Ding Fan shrank back, retreating several steps. The boss is so petty even jealous of his subordinates!

Just then, someone knocked to deliver the ice water. Ding Fan opened the basement door, took the bucket, and dumped it directly onto Xie Yun’s head.

“Ah! what heartless monster!”

“Your daughter ordered this. If you don’t talk, we’ll beat her to death. Once she’s dead, the luck you stole from my wife will return automatically.”

“Honey, you’re amazing… so decisive! I didn’t even think of it. If the person who stole my luck dies, it’ll definitely come back to me. Mwah~”

Ye Qianqian planted a kiss on Lu Jingchen’s cheek, instantly melting away the murderous chill radiating from him.

[The big boss is just a business tycoon; how would he know about mystical things like fate-swapping? If the female lead dies, the female antagonist will kick the bucket too!]

[If both the female lead and female antagonist die, what’s left for us to watch?]

The barrage of comments startled Ye Qianqian, making her raise her voice. “First, pierce all ten of her fingers, then beat her to death.”

“Did you all hear my wife? Torture her until she’s satisfied, then finish her off.”

Lu Jingchen gave the order while patting Ye Qianqian’s back. “Are you really that angry, darling?”

[The female antagonist is so vicious! Now that the big boss dotes on her, she’s still targeting the female lead. How cruel!]

[Thank goodness she’s cruel, otherwise, if the female lead died, she’d die too. Then how could we watch the big boss pamper his wife? I’m here for his domineering aura!]

[Keep causing trouble, female antagonist! The more you act out, the more entertaining you are. The big boss’s eyes are practically glowing when he looks at you. The male lead regretted marrying the female lead after just three days!]

“Ahhh!” Ye Qingyan’s agonized scream shattered Xie Yun’s composure. She screamed at Lu Jingchen, “Devils! You’re all devils! Fine, I’ll talk!”

“Stop. Let her speak.” Ye Qianqian said excitedly. She had always been afraid of death, otherwise, she wouldn’t have chosen to marry Lu Jingchen in the first place.

“Third Master Lu, if I tell you, will you let us live?”

“Pah! What right do you have to bargain with our master?” Ding Fan sneered before slapping Xie Yun twice across the face.

“You might not know this, but it’s not just about borrowing luck. Before Yanyan dies, she’ll die first. Now, I’m only asking, do you agree or not?”
