28: Chapter 28 I will take good care of her for you…
Another day passed.
From the courtyard of the Ji family, a shrill scream, like that of a dying beast, rang out!
"Ah!!! Who did this?! Who the Hell did this!!!"
Ji Boxiao lay on the bed, wrapped from head to toe in bandages.
Because Qin Feng had crippled his right arm and ribs, he had been in a semi-comatose state, relying solely on the cheap medicinal soup Wu Mengmeng fed him to keep him alive.
It wasn't until this morning that he had barely regained some consciousness.
As soon as he woke up, he heard Menial Laborers passing by outside discussing how his, Ji Boxiao's, spirit field had been destroyed, with more than half of the land turning to ash and becoming completely ruined!
For a Middle-tier Servant, a spirit field is their lifeline!
Having a spirit field destroyed not only cuts off one's livelihood but is also a capital offense against the Management Hall!
"Pfft—!"
Overcome with intense rage and anxiety, Ji Boxiao suddenly spat out a mouthful of black blood. His eyes bulged from their sockets due to extreme fear and fury, his bloodshot eyeballs looking as if they might burst at any moment.
"Qin Feng... It must be that little bastard Qin Feng who did this. Only he hates me to the bone!!"
Ji Boxiao roared on the bed like a madman, screaming like a vengeful ghost: "Mengmeng! Mengmeng, where the Hell are you?! Get your ass in here immediately!"
Wu Mengmeng carried a bowl of cold medicinal soup, slowly walking in from outside. Her eyes were filled with undisguised disgust as she said coldly: "What are you yelling for? In a rush to reincarnate?"
"How are you talking to me, you bitch?!"
Ji Boxiao was stunned for a moment, but he couldn't afford to be angry right now. He gripped the edge of the bed tightly and roared hoarsely: "Quick! Go call that little bastard Qin Feng over here! I want to ask him to his face! If he dared to destroy my field, even if I have to risk my life today, I will drag him down with me! Go! Make him roll over here immediately and give me an explanation! Otherwise, this won't be over!"
"Fine, I'll go call him for you."
A strange, eerie sneer curled at the corners of Wu Mengmeng's mouth. Not only was she not afraid, but she swayed her waist and walked out of the courtyard with alacrity.
Less than half an incense stick of time later.
"Bang!" The gate of the Ji family courtyard was kicked open.
Qin Feng, dressed in a neat long robe with his hands behind his back, walked into the main room as if taking a leisurely stroll, followed by the alluring-looking Wu Mengmeng.
"Big Brother Ji, I heard you were looking for me?"
Qin Feng stood before the bed, looking down at Ji Boxiao, who was like a cripple, with a cold, mocking smirk on his lips. "You're looking good; you can still yell so loudly."
"Little bastard!! You still dare to come here!!"
Enemies meeting face-to-face often see red. Seeing Qin Feng's calm and unhurried demeanor, Ji Boxiao trembled with rage, which tugged at his broken ribs, making him grimace in pain.
He forced his upper body up, pointed a trembling finger at Qin Feng with his only intact left hand, and cursed: "Did you mess with my spirit field?! How dare you destroy the spirit field on such a large scale! You are dead! I'm telling you, kneel down right now, kowtow to apologize, and compensate me for all my losses! Otherwise, I'll bring the Management Hall guards here right now and kill you!!"
Ji Boxiao thought he had caught Qin Feng in a trap, attempting to threaten him into submission by threatening mutual destruction.
However, facing his impotent rage, Qin Feng ignored him completely.
Qin Feng slowly turned his head, reached out his right hand naturally, and wrapped his arm around Wu Mengmeng's snake-like, supple waist, pulling her into his embrace with a slight tug.
What was even more shocking was that Wu Mengmeng not only did not resist in the slightest, but instead, as if she had found her backbone, she pliantly leaned against his broad chest.
Right in front of Ji Boxiao! She even stood on her tiptoes, coquettishly kissed Qin Feng on the cheek, and let out a soft, bone-melting whine: "Little Feng, he's yelling so loudly, it's giving me a headache..."
Boom!!! This scene, like a bolt of lightning from the blue, struck Ji Boxiao right on the crown of his head!
He never even dreamed that his own woman would, right in front of him, so blatantly throw herself into the arms of his most hated enemy! And she even kissed him!
This wasn't just betrayal; it was grinding his dignity into the dirt!
"Bitch!! You... you adulterous pair!!!"
The eyeballs in Ji Boxiao's sockets felt like they were about to burst, and the blood in his body surged backward instantly!
Extreme shame and fury prevented him from suppressing his severe internal injuries any longer, and his throat tasted sweet! "Pfft—!!!"
A crimson arrow of blood sprayed from Ji Boxiao's mouth, shooting out more than three feet and splattering all over the bed curtains!
Like a mad dog with a broken spine, he clawed frantically at the bed with his left hand. He didn't know where he found a rusty pair of scissors, but he roared and lunged from the bed, ready to fight for his life! "I'll kill you!! I want you both dead!!"
At that critical moment! "Bang!!!"
The Ji family's already tottering courtyard wall was suddenly smashed down by someone with terrifying force!
Amidst the rolling dust, a team of Management Hall guards, dressed in black tight-fitting attire, holding soul-locking chains that glinted with a cold light, and exuding intense Killing Intent, stepped into the courtyard like messengers of death from Hell!
The leading guard captain had eyes like lightning; his cold, ruthless gaze bypassed Qin Feng and Wu Mengmeng, locking firmly onto Ji Boxiao, who was holding the scissors with his mouth full of blood.
"Clang—!" The guard captain drew his long blade, and a tangible Killing Intent instantly enveloped the entire room.
He pulled a pitch-black token from his bosom, his cold and ruthless voice exploding in Ji Boxiao's ears like a death warrant: "Middle-tier Servant Ji Boxiao! You have destroyed more than one mu of spirit field on a large scale, causing the land's fertility to be severed; your crime is unforgivable!"
"By the order of the Management Hall authorities—the suspect Ji Boxiao is to be immediately imprisoned in the Management Hall death row. Tomorrow at noon, he shall be executed by slow slicing!! Take him down!!"
As soon as the words fell, two fierce guards rushed forward, snatched the scissors from Ji Boxiao's hand, tied him up like a pig with thick soul-locking chains, and dragged him violently off the bed.
"No... I didn't do it! I'm innocent! It was him, this little bastard framed me!!"
Ji Boxiao was utterly desperate. He struggled frantically on the cold ground, his face covered in a mixture of tears, snot, and blood, letting out a heart-wrenching wail!
Destroying a spirit field is a capital offense with no escape! The Management Hall would never listen to any excuses!
Qin Feng held Wu Mengmeng, looking down at Ji Boxiao, who was being dragged out the door by the guards like a dead dog.
A gentle yet cruel smile curled at the corner of his mouth. He raised his hand slightly to wave and said softly: "Big Brother Ji, rest easy. I will take good care of your sister-in-law for you."
