Quick Transmigration: The Pregnant Little Fairy is Pampered by the Heirless Boss

Chapter 265 The Mad Couple 29

Two days after Wu Chufeng and Ji Xiaosong's wedding, Wu Wanqing came to their home while Wu Chufeng was attending court.

Given the precedent of Xiao Mumu barging in last time, Wu Wanqing was stopped directly by the captain of the guard team this time.

"You audacious lackey, how dare you block my way!"

Wu Wanqing's eyebrows furrowed, her almond-shaped eyes widened, and she glared angrily at the captain of the guard, her voice so sharp it seemed to pierce the air.

"I am Wu Chufeng's own sister, how dare you be so rude!"

She had dressed up specially for today, wearing a gorgeous brocade robe and swaying jewels in her hair, but at this moment her face was full of anger, and her makeup even looked somewhat ferocious.

The captain of the guards had a cold expression and stood as straight as a pine tree. He was not intimidated by Wu Wanqing's imposing manner at all. He clasped his hands in a fist and said neither humbly nor arrogantly, "Miss Wu, there is an order in the manor that no unauthorized persons are allowed to enter without the permission of the master. I hope that Miss Wu will not make things difficult for me."

"A nobody? Am I a nobody?"

Wu Wanqing laughed as if she had heard the biggest joke in the world. Her laughter was full of sarcasm and anger. "My daughter was murdered. I came to ask my brother for an explanation, but you stopped me at the door. Is there no justice in this world?!"

As she spoke, she took a step forward, making a move to force her way in.

Upon seeing this, the captain of the guards quickly stepped aside to block Wu Wanqing, and the guards behind him immediately tensed up, gripping their weapons and assuming defensive postures.

Seeing this, Wu Wanqing became even more enraged and began to hurl insults at the Wu family's doorstep:

"Wu Chufeng, you heartless bastard! You actually killed your own niece! You deserve to die a horrible death! How can you still have the face to live in this world!"

Her shouting attracted a crowd of onlookers, who cast curious and surprised glances at her.

Inside the house, Ji Xiaosong was enjoying tea in the hall when she heard the noise outside and frowned slightly.

She put down her teacup and whispered to the maid beside her, "Go, have someone bring that crazy woman at the door in. Don't let her embarrass herself outside." The maid obeyed and left.

Before long, several strong guards carried Wu Wanqing in.

Wu Wanqing was still struggling desperately, cursing incessantly: "You bunch of dog slaves, let me go! Ji Xiaosong, you witch, you and Wu Chufeng colluded to kill my daughter, I will make you pay with your lives!"

Ji Xiaosong sat in the main seat, her expression calm, but her eyes revealed a hint of coldness as she looked at Wu Wanqing, who had been brought in, as if she were looking at a clown.

"Cover her mouth," Ji Xiaosong said calmly.

Immediately, guards stepped forward and gagged Wu Wanqing with a piece of cloth. Wu Wanqing whimpered, her eyes filled with hatred as she stared intently at Ji Xiaosong.

Ji Xiaosong stood up unhurriedly, walked gracefully to Wu Wanqing, looked down at her, and a mocking smile appeared on her lips:

"Miss Wu, you keep saying we killed your daughter, but do you have any evidence? If not, can you bear the responsibility for this slander?"

Wu Wanqing shook her head desperately, trying to speak through sobs, waving her hands wildly in the air.

Seeing this, Ji Xiaosong slightly raised his hand, signaling the guards to remove the cloth covering Wu Wanqing's mouth.

Wu Wanqing gasped for breath and said loudly, "If it wasn't you, then who was it? Mu Mu died mysteriously in the cesspool after you locked her up. If it wasn't you who did it, then who was it!"

Ji Xiaosong sneered, "Miss Wu, you can't just say things like that. Xiao Mumu did such a rebellious thing, causing a scene at the wedding, and my husband only locked her up to reflect on her actions; he didn't do anything to her. As for her death, who knows if it was retribution for her own sins?"

"You bullshit!"

Wu Wanqing's eyes were bloodshot, as if they were about to spit fire. "My daughter is carrying the Wu family's bloodline in her womb. How could Wu Chufeng possibly let her go! It must be that you did this to eliminate any future threats!"

Ji Xiaosong's expression hardened, a hint of displeasure flashing in her eyes: "Miss Wu, watch your words! Are you trying to incite internal strife in the family with such baseless accusations? As the eldest daughter of the Wu family, don't you know how to uphold the family's reputation?"

Wu Wanqing was speechless after being choked by Ji Xiaosong's words. She glared at Ji Xiaosong fiercely, her chest heaving violently.

Ji Xiaosong had no idea that Xiao Mumu was dead, let alone in such a disgusting way.

Ji Xiaosong wasn't sure if Wu Chufeng was behind it, but she was already 80% convinced.

This is something he's capable of doing.

Just then, footsteps sounded outside the door; Wu Chufeng had returned from court.

Wu Chufeng strode into the hall with steady steps. When he saw Wu Wanqing being restrained by the guards, a mocking smile instantly appeared on his face.

He slowly walked to the main seat, gently stroked Ji Xiaosong's shoulder, and then looked down at Wu Wanqing with the same look he had given her as if she were an insignificant ant.

"Sister, what kind of show is this?"

Wu Chufeng spoke, his voice full of mockery, "What's wrong? Instead of staying in your own home, you come here to cause trouble? What kind of behavior is this?"

Seeing this, Wu Wanqing struggled desperately and shouted at the top of her lungs:

"Wu Chufeng, stop pretending! You killed my daughter, and you must give me an explanation today!"

Wu Chufeng raised an eyebrow, a hint of disdain flashing in his eyes. "Sister, you can eat whatever you want, but you can't say whatever you want. When have I ever harmed Mumu? I've already shown her extra leniency because she's my niece and your daughter. She caused such a ruckus at the wedding, disrupting my and Xiaosong's happy occasion, and I only locked her up for two days before letting her go home. I haven't done anything else."

"You bullshit!"

Wu Wanqing's eyes widened, brimming with tears, her voice trembling with anger and grief, "After Mumu was locked up, she died in the cesspool. Who else could it be but you? She was carrying the Wu family's bloodline!"

Wu Chufeng maintained his arrogant expression and snorted coldly.

"Sister, could it be that Mu Mu has been spoiled by you all this time, and accidentally fell into the cesspool, but you want to pin the blame on me? How could I, a dignified Vice Minister, do such a despicable thing? But you, sister, without even knowing the facts, came to my residence to cause trouble and spouted nonsense at the gate. Do you want the whole capital to laugh at our Wu family?"

Ji Xiaosong sat to the side, quietly watching all of this.

Although she believed Wu Chufeng's words to a large extent, she remained calm and composed, only occasionally glancing up to observe Wu Chufeng's expression.

Wu Chufeng noticed Ji Xiaosong's gaze, tilted his head slightly, and gave her a reassuring smile.

Wu Wanqing was so angry at Wu Chufeng's words that she trembled all over, but she couldn't find any words to refute them.

She pointed at Wu Chufeng, her fingers trembling, "You...you...you heartless bastard!"

Wu Chufeng waved his hand impatiently and said to the captain of the guards:

"What are you all standing there for? Miss is very agitated. Take her away and let her calm down. Don't disturb Madam's peace and quiet here."

The captain of the guards accepted the order and led several guards forward again, preparing to take Wu Wanqing away.

As Wu Wanqing struggled, she shouted, "Wu Chufeng, you are so heartless today, you will surely suffer retribution in the future! I will not let you go!"

Wu Chufeng remained unmoved, coldly watching Wu Wanqing being led away.

"Did you really kill Xiao Mumu?"
