Chapter 40

She had no idea what Han Jing would do to her!

The terror and hatred in Han Yan’s eyes were evident. She used to look at her with such disdain. Han Yan used to use Han Jing’s ugly looks and stupidity to accentuate the good in herself.

She was not sure why she was terrified of Han Jing when facing her at that moment. It felt as if Han Jing could strangle her to death without much effort. That dreadful feeling made her wish that Han Jing would drop dead!

She was powerless against Han Jing!

“Don’t look at me like that. If I wanted to kill you, you’d be dead already,” Han Jing spat. “There is no need to change her clothing. This should work just fine.”

Han Jing could not believe how stupid Han Yan—who was neither smart nor daring— was to toy with her.

“You! What do you want?” Han Yan hugged her shoulders and looked at Han Jing with terror.

She sensed that Han Jing was different. She could not pinpoint when it began, but Han Jing was not just hideous—she was terrifying. Han Jing used to have a friendly smile, but it sent chills down Han Yan’s spine. It was like having a poisonous snake around her neck that could attack at any time!

Han Jing looked at the time. What intrigued her was that the Nanyao Nation was close to the South China Sea. It brought many foreign goods. One of them was a clock. Han Jing hadn’t fully grasped what place this was precisely, but it brought a lot of convenience to her life!

It was only 9.00 p.m. It was too early to go to the Ling Manor.

She asked Bo He to guard Han Yan while she rested. At about 11.00 p.m, she freshened up and came out. She changed into a black-colored horse riding outfit and tied her hair into a ponytail. She looked neat.

The black shirt made her fair skin look almost translucent. Her dark red birthmark was not as hideous as before, but it added a sense of devilishness to her.

“If you do as I say, I will make your wish come true. As for what you’d like to do afterward, that is up to you, but if you don’t do as I say, my servants will ‘take care’ of you. Do you understand that?” Han Jing walked up to her and lowered her head. She extended her hand to tap on her shoulder lightly. Han Yan’s facial expression changed.

She was not sure if Han Jing was possessed. All she did was tap lightly on her shoulder, and it sent chills down her spine, and her body shivered.

Han Jing smiled and ordered Xu Chong to bring her along. Bo He and her followed from behind. The four of them left the princess manor stealthily and entered the Ling Manor.

Xu Chong was sent to investigate the environment in Su Xingyan’s home. They reached the rooftop without much effort.

Han Jing asked Bo He to control Han Yan and sent a signal to Xu Chong.

Coincidentally, Su Xingyan had just finished his work and was about to take a bath. Xu Chong silently slipped into his room and added something to his tea before returning to take Han Yan to Su Xingyan’s bed.

Han Yan had just realized what Han Jing tried to do. It was baffling to her, but she was rather excited!
