Charm King Poison Queen

  Chapter 269 Tear up another white lotus (3)

I bother! How dare you pretend to be confused in front of her with such a low-level thing? The old lady gritted her silver teeth coldly: "Okay! If you don't show any color to you, you will be easy to bully if you treat yourself like Ma's family! Ma Yuan!"

  Ma Yuan stepped forward: "Mother."

   "Drag this shouting thing down! Doesn't he like to lie? Pull out his teeth one by one, and see if he dares in the future?"

When he heard that his teeth were about to be pulled out, the opera singer fell to his knees with a plop, kowtowed loudly, and shouted in a loud voice: "Old lady, please forgive me! Old lady, please forgive me—the young one is an opera singer, and he lost his teeth. It's ruined—"

   "You know your life is ruined, what about other people's?" The old lady didn't bother to pay attention to his pleading, and waved to Ma Yuan, signaling Ma Yuan to drag him down.

  Ma Yuan took a stride, grabbed the actor by the collar, and twisted him up like a chicken.

  The actor was so frightened that he kicked his feet violently. When he kicked Ma Yuan's leg, he felt that he had touched the iron plate, and even his toes were about to be broken. He seemed to be in despair, and shouted with tears: "I say! I say! I say everything!"

  Bai Shuang'er's heart skipped a beat, this guy pointed into the room by himself, he wouldn't... confess himself in front of so many people, wouldn't he? But... I didn't "know" that he was here to do such a disgusting thing. I just pointed the way because he wanted to find Lin Lanzhi to reconcile the account books. What he did afterwards has nothing to do with him!

   Thoughts flashed by, and Bai Shuang'er's restless mood gradually calmed down.

  Ma Yuan threw the actor on the ground and shouted: "If you dare to tell a lie, your tongue will be pulled out!"

  "Yes yes yes!"

   Ma Yuan kicked him: "Say it!"

  The actor was kicked to the ground, held back the pain and knelt up straight, sucked his nose, and whimpered, "The small one... the small one was forced!"

   "By whom?" Ma Yuan asked in a deep voice.

  The actor was crying, his timid eyes scanned the room, and finally, they fell on Bai Shuang'er's face: "Her."

Bai Shuang'er was startled: "Me? When did I force you? I showed you the way! It was you who said you wanted to check with your wife and asked where my wife is, so I...I told you Wait and see if Madam will pass by here..."

  The actor stared at her dumbfounded: "Eh? You obviously didn't say that... Our theater troupe was hired by the third lady. If we want to reconcile the account, we should go to the third lady! How can we find a lady under the name?"

  Boom—

  A thunder rang in Bai Shuang'er's mind.

  She thought of her conversation with the actor—

   "Ma'am, the general is really eccentric. When he has a new love, he ignores you. You are lonely in the room, and Xiaosheng understands it."

   "Young master, I am very touched by your friendship, but unfortunately you have mistaken the person, I am not Mrs. Lanzhi."

   "Ah? This... I am sorry to offend you! I am sorry to offend you! I just... just made a joke with you, please don't take it seriously! I and Mrs. Lanzhi are innocent!"

"Don't worry, I won't take a few jokes seriously. You are looking for Mrs. Lanzhi... there must be something important, right? Is the reward given today wrong? Do you need to ask her to settle the matter?" She tempted the other party to jump off trap.

  The other party said: "That's right! That's it! I just read the account book, and there are a few accounts that I don't understand very well. I want to ask Mrs. Lanzhi to look over it. I hope... this young lady can show you the way."
