Snatching Women from the Male Lead

Qin Zhao looked at them.

Qin Zhao said, "My name is Qin Zhao. How should I address you two?"

The woman in the blue floral brocade dress said, "Lu Chen."

The other woman in the apricot-gray robe said, "Meng Huilan."

Lu Chen replied to Qin Zhao's question, "We both feel that playing Go takes too much brainpower.

We want to come up with a simple yet fun way to play with these black and white pieces.

If you can fulfill this wish for us, we are willing to be of service to you."

Qin Zhao rubbed his chin, knitted his brows lightly, and seemed to show difficulty.

Lu Chen asked, "Do you think it's too difficult?

I understand. I've traveled far and wide, asking many people, but no one could do it."

But Qin Zhao shook his head. "That's not it. I just feel like this is too simple.

Can I really so easily make you submit to me?"

Lu Chen looked slightly taken aback.

Lu Chen said, "We will certainly keep our word, but you don't have to boast to impress us."

Qin Zhao lightly pulled up the corners of his lips. "If you don't believe me, we can try it out."

Qin Zhao sat down next to the game board and set up a game. He said, "This is called Five in a Row. Whoever gets five in a row first wins."

Lu Chen tried playing by the rules Qin Zhao described and played a game against him, which she lost.

She complained it wasn't fun while pulling Qin Zhao to play another dozen games!

And she lost every time.

Lu Chen pouted. "Losing every time is no fun."

Qin Zhao laughed. "Then shall I let you win?"

A martial artist would never stand for this. She immediately sulked and reprimanded, "Don't you know it's very rude to say that?"

Just as Qin Zhao was wondering how to make amends,

he saw Lu Chen place a black piece on the board. "If you want to let me win, then let me, don't say it aloud for others to know."

Qin Zhao: "..."

Meng Huilan: "..."

Nangong Ling: Is this the demeanor of flexibility expected of the fourth-ranked on the List of Heroes in the World?

Impressive.

This round, Lu Chen finally won!

She jumped up happily and shouted loudly, "As expected of me, Lu Chen. I can win anything!"

Qin Zhao: As long as the child is happy.

After Lu Chen calmed down, Qin Zhao asked her, "Is this enough?"

Lu Chen nodded. According to their agreement, she knelt before Qin Zhao, "I am willing to serve you."

Qin Zhao helped her up, "No need for such courtesy."

Qin Zhao then turned to Nangong Ling and asked, "Do you not know what the top-ranked on the list looks like?"

Nangong Ling said, "That top-ranked person knows transformation techniques and never reveals her true appearance to others.

Each time I meet her, she looks different.

So when I met Meng Huilan, I did not doubt her identity."

502 suddenly interrupted, "Host, the male lead is harassing the female lead."

Qin Zhao: "What's the situation now?"

"Uh..." 502 hesitated. "Host will know when you go see."

Qin Zhao hurriedly said to Nangong Ling: "Since this is the case, next time you see her, notify me again.

I have other matters to attend to, so I'll take my leave!"

Qin Zhao left the room and headed straight for the third floor.

Just as she reached the corridor, she smelled a strong bloody stench!

Her heart skipped a beat as she quickened her pace!

From afar, she saw bloodstains at the door of the private room. Qin Zhao rushed in anxiously!

The scene before her eyes was far from her imagination...

Qi Yan Su Luo sat alone at the table, holding a dagger stained with blood. Her surroundings were a pool of blood, and her clothes were also dyed red!

But she looked as usual. Seeing Qin Zhao arrive, she even looked up and smiled at her, "You're here."

Qin Zhao stepped through the blood and went to Qi Yan Su Luo's side, hugging her while asking, "What did you just do?"

"I...

Half a minute ago, Huo Chengjin kicked the door open and entered the room!

Qi Yan Su Luo looked towards the door and saw it was Huo Chengjin. She said, "You should not be here."

Huo Chengjin walked closer step by step. "I've come to take you away."

Qi Yan Su Luo placed her hand on the dagger. "You have no right to say that, and I won't leave with you."

Huo Chengjin raised his voice, "Qi Yan Su Luo, don't be ungrateful!

Back then in West Lin Country, if I hadn't spared your life, you would have ended up like your sisters, violated and killed by soldiers!

That you can sit here safe and sound is thanks to my mercy.

Now is the time for you to repay me!"

Mentioning the past caused cracks in Qi Yan Su Luo's calm expression, but she quickly composed herself and asked, "Why do you want me to go with you, because you like me?"

Huo Chengjin stopped beside Qi Yan Su Luo. "A beautiful woman like you, what man wouldn't like you?

I'm no exception.

To be precise, I love you.

As long as you leave Zhao Yang Princess and come with me, I'll make you the happiest woman in the world!"

Huo Chengjin was so close that Qi Yan Su Luo could smell his pungent odor.

She suppressed the urge to vomit and said, "You're about to marry the princess, it's inappropriate to say such things."

Hearing her tone soften, Huo Chengjin was ecstatic!

He knelt down on one knee, looking up at Qi Yan Su Luo earnestly, "I don't love Zhao Yang Princess at all. Marrying her is only for my family's safety.

My family has served as generals for generations and made great contributions to the country, with accomplishments overshadowing even the ruler.

This can easily arouse the emperor's suspicions.

But by marrying the princess, the emperor's beloved daughter, I can use her to gain the emperor's trust.

Even if the emperor still suspects my family, Zhao Yang Princess can serve as a hostage to make him think twice.

The only woman I've ever loved is you!"

Qi Yan Su Luo's expression barely changed, only showing a trace of being moved.

"You say you love me?

I'm very happy, but don't dare believe it."

Huo Chengjin quickly asked, "Then what can I do to make you believe me?" 𝐟𝐫eewe𝗯𝐧𝚘ve𝐥.c𝚘𝚖

Qi Yan Su Luo said, "People lie, but feelings do not.

I've heard that to find out if someone truly loves you, you can judge by how passionate their kiss is."

Having said this, she closed her eyes.

The implication was obvious.

Huo Chengjin suppressed his excitement, pursed his lips, and slowly leaned towards Qi Yan Su Luo.

As soon as he closed his eyes, he felt a sharp pain in his chest!

Huo Chengjin opened his mouth in shock, wanting to speak.

But he saw Qi Yan Su Luo continuously stabbing the dagger deep into his chest before pulling it out!

Each repetition caused the blood spurting from the wound to become more forceful!

Huo Chengjin violently pushed Qi Yan Su Luo away and stumbled towards the door...

Qi Yan Su Luo put her arms around Qin Zhao's waist, holding him tightly, and said, "I killed Huo Chengjin."
