The Cannon Fodder and Villain’s Happy Ending

Chapter 443

Qin Xin went to great lengths to persuade Old Madam Qin, both by appealing to her emotions and also by luring her for profit.

However, Old Madam Qin remained unmoved, looking at Qin Xin with cold eyes as if she was watching an actor on a stage.

“Qin Xin,” Qin Zening said coldly, “Do you truly not know the reason why you were removed from the clan?”

Without blinking, Qin Xin looked at Qin Zening with a pair of misty eyes and said looking hurt and with aggrieved words, “Brother, you’ve misunderstood me too much.”

Qin Zening had long known that Qin Xin was a person who would not stop until she saw the Yellow River, and with an unperturbed look on his face, he said, “Killing one’s relatives is an unforgivable crime.”

Qin Xin once again said, “Brother, it isn’t me who encouraged mother…Madam Su. Just believe me for once.”

Qin Zening took half a step closer toward her, looked down at Qin Xin and said almost word for word, “Do you still remember the forest of oleander at the station in Mengji County?”

“I wonder if you’ve tasted that bowl of sweet soup with oleander yourself?”

“….” Qin Xin’s face suddenly turned white, paler than the snow on the branches outside the window. Her complexion looked like there was no trace of blood as her pupils shrunk suddenly as if she had seen a ghost.

Qin Zening has not yet found any reliable evidence to prove that Qin Xin murdered his grandfather. Physician He had treated the old marquis’ sickness in Ancheng County when he visited Jinzhou six years ago. However, after his people tracked him down in Jinzhou, no one found him. It was said that Physician He returned to his hometown with his family the year before last. Shuzhou, his hometown was thousands of miles away and had vast territory, making it difficult to find people.

However, Qin Xin’s expression tells him that they were not mistaken!

Sure enough, it was Qin Xin who did it!

Qin Zening’s expression was even colder as his whole body had turned into an unsheathed sword, filled with murderous intent as if he was about to let Qin Xin’s blood shed on the spot in the next moment.

Madam Qin also noticed this and as soon as she exerted force on the Buddhist beads string in her hand, it snapped…

The sound of the “crackling” beads after being snapped fell on the ground one by one rolling on the mirror-like ground.

Qin Xin came back to her senses and said in a panic, “Brother, I don’t understand what you’re talking about!”

Even after looking confused, in the eyes of Old Madam Qin, Qin Zening, and Qin Jiu, her acting skills were extremely clumsy

Old Madam Qin had the slightest hope about this matter before, hoping that it was not Qin Xin, the granddaughter whom she single-handedly raised who did this, and yet, at this moment, that last glimmer was completely shattered.

“You don’t understand?” Qin Zening’s eyes were sharp as he let out a sneer from the bottom of his throat. “If you think you’re innocent, then why don’t you go to the public court and talk, report why our Qin family wants to expel you from the clan!”

“Whether or not our grandfather’s death had anything to do with you, you know it in yourself very well!”

Qin Xin: “…”

Qin Xin’s thumping heart accelerated, as she dared not look directly into Qin Zening’s eyes but still braced herself and said. “I didn’t do it, brother, don’t accuse me wrongly.”

“I know that ever since you realized that my biological mother switched me with a third sister, you have disliked me and have been trying to drive me out of the Qin family. And now to expel me from the clan, you will wrong me like this, planting my grandfather’s death on my head, this is too deceitful.”

“Forget it, since you haven’t thought of our kinship for half a year, then I won’t beg you.”

“I can leave now, can’t I?!”

Qin Xin wiped the tears from her reddened eyes with a handkerchief and stood up from the ground, then turned around to leave.
