The Almighty Rich Daughter is Explosively Cool
Chapter 868 - Emperor Yin, Duke Xia has died
Jun Yexuan and the others, “…”
In the end, the grandma forced everyone out of her home and into the helicopter. The group flew during the night to get back to their hotel.
Though the grandma said she didn’t need any gifts, Jun Yexuan still asked his subordinate to bring her gifts.
What he didn’t know was that by the time his subordinates arrived, the hut had been emptied out.
Inside the Emperor’s castle.
Just as Emperor Yin was getting a headache from insomnia, a man with a scar on his face rushed over to him, “Emperor Yin, something bad happened!”
Emperor Yin moved his hand that was resting on his forehead away, “What’s making you freak out like this?!”
The man said, “The connection between us and the venomous creature has been cut!”
Emperor Yin froze and he widened his eyes. He grabbed the man by his collar and shouted, “What did you just say?!”
“The connection we had to control the venomous creature is gone! The young master has gotten rid of the parasite!”
Yin Lei was in shock. Without any energy, he collapsed against the back of his chair in a daze.
So he had underestimated that girl.
After some time, he brandished his hand, “You can leave.”
“Yes, sir.”
Beside him, Xu Mian asked, “Then Emperor Yin, should we make peace with the young master?”
“How can I achieve that?” Yin Lei glared at him, “We’ve already ripped each other’s faces off. He is aware that I was the one who cursed him with a venomous creature. You think he can forgive me for doing that?”
Xu Mian stopped talking at once.
Yin Lei then asked, “Did Xia Houshang achieve what she wanted?”
Before Xu Mian could answer, a guard walked in, “Emperor Yin, Duke Xia has died.”
“What?!” Yin Lei hopped out of his seat with astonishment on his face, “What happened?! You better make it clear to me what happened! If this is only a rumor, I will end your life! Duke Xia was fine earlier today how could he be dead?!”
“I don’t dare to report a lie to you.” The guard said, “We are not aware of what happened. But I personally saw his corpse. It’s not just a rumor.”
Yin Lei, drowning in disbelief, started to walk, “Get me to the Xia mansion.”
Xu Mian, “Yes, sir.”
“Wait a minute.” Yin Lei stopped suddenly and looked to the guard, “The news hasn’t spread, right?”
The guard answered, “Not yet. So far, only the Xia family and I are aware.”
Yin Lei sighed in relief and ordered Xu Mian, “Get this news under control and make sure there are no leaks! We especially cannot allow Country Ruan and the Quan family to hear about this!”
“Yes, sir!” Xu Mian bowed but suddenly remembered something and added, “But, Emperor Yin, we cannot stop Ms. Xia from talking. What if she decides to leak the news?”
Yin Lei said, “Come to the Xia family with me.”
Xu Mian, “Yes, sir.”
Yin Lei rode the car to the Xia mansion. Once there, he found that the subordinates had already set up the mourning hall. Inside, however, was empty except for servants.
Xi Houshi lost his wife early and never remarried. Yin Lei knew about that.
Xia Houshang was his daughter and his only family. Logically speaking, she should be the host who mourns him inside the spiritual hall.
Just as Yin Lei wondered about this, a butler walked over, “Emperor Yin, the young miss is waiting for you in the living room.”
Emperor Yin followed the butler into the living room.
There, he found Xia Houshang sitting on the couch. Without much thought, he asked, “How did Duke Xia… ah, Houshang, when did this happen? How did he die? How come you didn’t tell me?”
Xia Houshang appeared beaten down and looked like someone who had just lost her father…
