Thousand Face Demonic Concubine Chapter 174.2

Chapter 174.2 - Evil deeds get bad karma

But she still had to bear it, slowly standing up as her head was still lowered.

This was the only way she could hide the poisonous glare in her eyes, “Thank you countess.”

The people behind her then also stood up.

Lou Qingwu watched her unwilling expression as her smile deepened.

She took a step closer, using a light voice that was like a hammer to Ruan Zhen’s ear, “Tomorrow is Lian’er little sister’s day of return, second madam should prepare for that. Qingwu … won’t interrupt.”

“...” Ruan Zhen’s face suddenly darkened.

“Oh, I nearly forgot. I heard that Lian’er little sister suffered a shock on her wedding night. Second madam should buy some medicine to help her suppress that shock. Otherwise, if Lian’er little sister accidentally goes crazy … like a hysterical victim, that would be unfortunate.”

Lou Qingwu bit down on the last phrase, making Ruan Zhen suddenly start to shake.

She whipped her head upwards but all she saw was Lou Qingwu already turning away, heading towards the Leaning Wind Pavilion.

But her heart couldn’t settle down.

Why did her heart suddenly go cold at what Lou Qingwu said?

She suddenly had a feeling that Lou Qingwu didn’t forget about the ‘hysterical powder’ that she planted on her, that time at the emperor’s banquet.

Was she … taking her revenge now?

Ruan Zhen walked unsteadily out of the residence, even when she reached her carriage, she was still feeling worried.

Right until her maidservant reminded her that she had already arrived, did she suddenly wake up.

She lifted up a curtain and saw the sign, ‘Hundred year old medicine store’.

Then she finally remembered today’s aim.

Her hands suddenly gripped into fists as her eyes fell on the people inside the store, her eyes reddening.

This time, she was here to buy safflower.

She couldn’t bear the lao ye’s indifference and him ignoring her.

Wasn’t the fourth madam just pregnant?

Why did everything suddenly change?

So she thought of a plan to soundlessly kill off the baby inside the fourth madam’s stomach.

As long as the child died, then everything would return to the way it originally was, it’s just that …

Her mind flashed to Lou Qingwu’s face as she reaffirmed her decision to somehow s.h.i.+ft the blame onto Lou Qinwu.

She needed to find a perfect way to scheme it so that it looked like Lou Qingwu was the one who did it.

The hatred in her eyes grew and grew as she bit down on her lips, strengthening her resolve.

Once she bought the safflower, she’ll slowly find an opportunity.

Thinking it through, she forced herself to calm down.

She lifted up the curtain to look outside before getting off the carriage.

She suddenly paused before turning backwards to face the driver, “Go back to the residence first. I’m not feeling well so I need to see a doctor. Come back in two hours.”

The driver wasn’t suspicious of anything and instantly agreed, “Yes.”

After he finished speaking, he drove the carriage away.

Until she couldn’t see the driver anymore, Ruan Zhen then covered her face with a veil and entered the medicine store with her close maidservant.

But before she’d even gotten close to the medicinal store, a person suddenly appeared in front of her.

Ruan Zhen froze before looking up at the person who stopped her.

She saw a stunningly seductive face as her beautiful eyes raised a brow at her, charming.

But this beautiful face made Ruan Zhen completely stiffen and freeze.

TL note:  

A new low, even for Ruan Zhen.

Needless to say, safflower = induces abortions.
