The Lucky Bride Is Pretty And Delicate Chapter 102 - The Bawd Lied

Chapter 102: The Bawd Lied

The bawd stared at Liu Sanniang. No matter how fiercely she looked at Liu Sanniang, the latter did not show signs of fear.

This time, it took a little longer than before. Sweat broke out on the bawd’s forehead. She was extremely uneasy. Why was Liu Sanniang taking so long?

The bawd also wanted to break free from Liu Sanniang’s hand, but she did not have the strength. It was as if all her power had been sucked out, making her feel extremely uncomfortable.

Wei s.h.i.+lai frowned. He was waiting for Liu Sanniang to speak.

Liu Sanniang looked at the bawd and said slowly, “You’re lying. Yan Lan has already earned her freedom and the freedom of her servant girl.”

The bawd’s pupils constricted. “What evidence do you have? Who can prove what you say is true?”

Liu Sanniang smiled. “It doesn’t matter if you don’t admit it. Why don’t you watch it again?”

The bawd could not believe her ears. What did Liu Sanniang mean? What did she mean by watching it again? Who did she think she was? Could she bring everyone back to the past?

The bawd pursed her lips and used all her might to break free from Liu Sanniang’s grip. However, no matter how hard she tried, she couldn’t budge by even an inch.

Wei s.h.i.+lai recalled what he experienced back in River Village. He looked at Liu Sanniang in confusion. Were they going to experience what Yan Lan had gone through?

Liu Sanniang released a powerful force that enveloped the entire hall. Then, she sent the bawd’s memory into everyone’s brain. From that part of memory, all of them could see what exactly happened.

Yan Lan had earned enough money to free herself. She found the bawd and said, “I’ve saved enough to free myself. I want to free Xiao Zhu as well. I’m used to her serving me. I want her to be with me.”

The bawd frowned and did not agree immediately. Instead, she said, “Men are all liars. How can you believe what they say to deceive you?”

Yan Lan revealed a shy expression, then lifted her skirt and knelt down in front of the bawd. “Mr. Song is genuinely good to me. I don’t want to waste my whole life here. I want to spend the rest of my life with him.”

The bawd sighed. “You can’t even have children. He’ll change when you’re old and useless. Listen to me. Keep working for me for a few years. When you save a lot of money, you can adopt a baby and live a normal life.”

Yan Lan shook her head and begged. “Please let me go. Even if he changes, I won’t regret it. Mr. Song really loves me.”

Seeing that Yan Lan didn’t listen to her, the bawd sighed. “If you don’t wanna listen to me, then it’s up to you. You’ll regret it sooner or later.”

“I can tell at a glance what kind of a man he is.”

The bawd shook her head and sighed. In the end, she gave Yan Lan and Xiao Zhu freedom.

Now that they were free, they could leave at any time. The bawd thought that Yan Lan would leave in a few days, but she did not expect Yan Lan to suddenly die.

Yan Lan was already a free woman. When she died in the brothel, it would be a murder case and would affect the brothel. She thought that since Yan Lan didn’t have any family and that her lover definitely wouldn’t show up, she immediately went back on her word and said that Yan Lan was on a death contract.

She then dragged the dead body out and buried it.

The brothel had to do business every day, and Yan Lan’s room had to be used. Naturally, it could not be left as a murder scene, so it was cleaned up quickly.

Liu Sanniang let go of her hand. The bawd had nothing to say. Her lie had been exposed. She cried. “Sir, I just didn’t want any trouble, but I’m really not the murderer.”

Wei s.h.i.+lai did not say anything. This case was getting more and more complicated. Since Yan Lan had earned her freedom, she definitely wouldn’t commit suicide.

But if it was a homicide case, who could kill her? Who hated her that much?

Liu Sanniang walked up to the servant girl. The servant girl hesitated for a moment before extending her hand.

Liu Sanniang said calmly, “Everything you said is true.”

Xiao Zhu was Yan Lan’s servant girl. Yan Lan was close to a man, and Xiao Zhu knew about it.

Seeing Yan Lan fall in love, Xiao Zhu was happy for her. When Yan Lan said that she would set her free, Xiao Zhu was grateful. Yan Lan was infertile, but Xiao Zhu wasn’t. Xiao Zhu also admired Yan Lan’s lover. She was willing to be his mistress and serve the two of them.

Therefore, when Yan Lan died and the bawd went back on her word, Xiao Zhu came to report the case. If she did not report the case, she would not be free and could not pursue her love.

Xiao Zhu looked at Liu Sanniang and heaved a sigh of relief. Liu Sanniang did not say everything that was on her mind. For that, Xiao Zhu was very grateful. Yan Lan was dead, but she still wanted to be with Mr. Song. This was being disloyal to Yan Lan, but she couldn’t control her feelings.

“Since none of us is the murderer, can we go back now? The girls still have work to do tonight.”

Liu Sanniang asked her. “Where does that Mr. Song live?”

Yan Lan was dead, and her lover might be the key.

Xiao Zhu frowned. “This has nothing to do with Mr. Song. He hasn’t come to look for Miss for two days now.”

Xiao Zhu hurriedly tried to speak up for Mr. Song. When Yan Lan died, Xiao Zhu was sound asleep and did not know how she died. However, Xiao Zhu was sure that Mr. Song had nothing to do with this case because he did not come there at all.

Liu Sanniang looked at Xiao Zhu and did not respond.

The bawd sneered. “You’re so protective of him. Aren’t you afraid that Yan Lan will come back to haunt you for betraying her?”

Xiao Zhu turned pale and bit her lip without saying anything.

Yan Lan had agreed to Xiao Zhu giving birth to a child for Mr. Song, and the child would be adopted by Yan Lan. But now that Yan Lan was dead, she could marry Mr. Song as a legal wife. Which woman didn’t want to be the legal wife? Xiao Zhu thought that she was right, but she felt guilty.

Wei s.h.i.+lai smacked the table. “You can go back now, but before this case is over, you still have to cooperate. Anyone related to the deceased is under suspicion.”

Xiao Zhu bit the corner of her lips. “Mr. Song mentioned that he lives in Fruit Alley. In front of the place where he lives, there is a crooked tree.”

Wei s.h.i.+lai inquired again. “Let me ask you, what’s his full name and where does he hail from.”

Xiao Zhu lowered her head and replied. “He said his name is Song Yu. He comes from Suzhou and is studying in Yong County.”

After saying that, Xiao Zhu looked up. “I don’t know anything else about him. I’ve never been to his place.”
