"Heh heh..."
Ji Ruxue turned her head, her foxy eyes glancing at Ouyang Liqun, and said with a smile, "Are you jealous?"
Ouyang Liqun stopped, but when he turned to face Ji Ruxue's pair of eerie, cold green eyes, his heart suddenly tightened. He quickly lowered his head and said, "No, I just think what you're doing will be futile in the end, because Wan Yunting won't be that foolish!"
"So, you think I'm very foolish?"
Ji Ruxue's stunningly beautiful face was indifferent. She exuded a queen-like, commanding aura, which immediately made Ouyang Liqun dare not be presumptuous. He quickly said, "I didn't mean that, I..."
"Enough."
Ji Ruxue waved her hand, turning away, unwilling to listen to his nonsense. She said coldly, "Ouyang Liqun, you just need to understand that you are working for our Divine Serpent Clan. In my eyes, you are just a pawn. If I tell you to go east, you cannot go west. If you dare to disobey, you know very well what your fate will be!"
These words instantly turned Ouyang Liqun's face pale. His eyes revealed a look of fear, and his heart trembled. He quickly said, "Divine Mother, I know I was wrong. I shouldn't have tried to guess your thoughts. Please forgive me."
Ji Ruxue turned her head, her half-closed foxy eyes like two sharp knives piercing Ouyang Liqun. Her fiery red lips curved into a smile, "It's simple to get my forgiveness. Go to the police station and surrender yourself. Confess everything you've done abroad!"
Her words made Ouyang Liqun tremble all over. He raised his head, his eyes wide with disbelief as he looked at Ji Ruxue. He opened his mouth and finally trembled, "Divine Mother, why... why would I do that?"
"Hee hee..."
Ji Ruxue stepped forward, raised her right hand, and gently caressed his face, smiling, "Because you are no longer valuable to me!"
For a moment, Ouyang Liqun's heart felt as if it had fallen into an ice cellar. He took two steps back, losing all strength, and smiled sadly, "So, Divine Mother, you've completely given up on me for Wan Yunting, haven't you?"
"That's right."
At this moment, Ji Ruxue felt there was no need to hide it from him. She said, "Because he has Divine Serpent blood. As the Divine Mother of the Divine Serpent Clan, I must obtain his Divine Serpent blood essence!"
Ouyang Liqun let out a desolate, tragic laugh. He looked up slightly at Ji Ruxue, who was like a queen before him, and said, "So, all the value I've created for your Divine Serpent Clan over the years has been in vain, and it's not even enough to save my life, is it?"
Ji Ruxue looked at him with her foxy eyes, her fiery red lips curving into a seductive smile, "Liqun, how could I forget the merits you've achieved for our Divine Serpent Clan? But you should also understand how important Divine Serpent blood is to us. Therefore, I can only sacrifice you!"
"Don't worry, as long as you obey me obediently, I won't harm your family."
Ouyang Liqun slumped onto a chair in the corridor. His head was bowed, his face filled with a desolate and despairing smile. Suddenly, he clutched his stomach, knelt on the ground, and cried out in pain, as if something was churning inside him. The indescribable pain caused large beads of sweat to form on his forehead. His face turned pale, contorted in agony...
Ji Ruxue lifted the slit of her long dress, revealing her tantalizing, black-stockinged legs as she slowly crouched down. She looked at Ouyang Liqun, who was trembling on the ground with a look of excruciating pain on his face, and smiled, "Liqun, I know you've always been controlled by me and felt resentful. But I'll tell you this, daring to oppose our Divine Serpent Clan will result in a tragic fate for you, including your family!"
Ouyang Liqun, his face full of pain, turned his head. At this moment, he no longer concealed himself. His eyes, filled with resentment, glared at the charmingly smiling Ji Ruxue. The pain caused him to grit his teeth and tremble as he said, "You... you wicked woman."
"Hee hee..."
Ji Ruxue let out a charming laugh and stood up. She looked down from above, her foxy eyes coldly gazing at Ouyang Liqun, and sneered, "Ouyang Liqun, just obey me. Don't think about resisting, or the little snake in your belly will crawl out of your belly button, haha..."
With that, Ji Ruxue left amidst her laughter, her high heels clicking as she departed. Ouyang Liqun was left lying on the corridor floor, clutching his stomach. He could clearly feel a snake writhing inside him. The excruciating pain caused him to twitch and tremble all over. Only when the snake in his belly finally quieted down did the pain begin to subside. Ouyang Liqun, gritting his teeth, used his hands to support himself on the corridor chair and struggled to sit up...
Panting, his eyes were filled with anger and despair. He recalled being kidnapped in Mexico years ago and meeting Ji Ruxue for the first time. She had held a snake and opened his mouth. That terrifying moment was something Ouyang Liqun could never forget...
For so many years, he had been controlled by the Divine Serpent Clan's serpent蛊 (gu) poison. They had established the "Qun Long" drug trafficking syndicate in Mexico, selling drugs worldwide. Almost all the money earned flowed into the coffers of the Divine Serpent Clan.
But now, having lost his value, he was abandoned by Ji Ruxue like this. Ouyang Liqun was filled with desolation and unwillingness. Anger caused the serpent蛊 in his belly to writhe, but the pain made him lose his anger, leaving him no choice but to obediently submit and follow orders...
But who could he blame for this?
He didn't blame Wan Yunting in his heart. Ouyang Liqun knew this day would eventually come. Wan Yunting had merely shattered everything.
If he had to blame someone, he would blame his own bad luck for encountering those demonic monsters of the Divine Serpent Clan, who controlled him with such evil means, turning him into a puppet...
"Brother, are we going to pick up Sister Luotang and Miaomiao now?"
At this moment, Ouyang Zhixin and Xia Xiangyun, along with Wan Yunting and Ouyang Fanmeng, Wan Dongming and Wang Chulin with his niece Wan'er, and Duan Yingying naturally following along, were preparing to leave home for a trip to the Great Wall. Just then, they encountered Ouyang Liqun, who was sitting in the corridor chair, his head bowed and his face pale.
Ouyang Zhixin raised an eyebrow and looked back at Wan Yunting...
Ouyang Liqun took a deep breath before looking up and smiling, "Uncle, Aunt, are you going out?"
"Yes."
Xia Xiangyun, who knew nothing, nodded with a smile, "Little Wan and Fanmeng are going to visit the Great Wall. Liqun, do you want to join?"
Ouyang Liqun, who had stood up, shook his head slightly and smiled, "No need, Aunt. I won't disturb your family outing."
Ouyang Zhixin's expression was neutral. He nodded and said, "Let's go."
Xia Xiangyun also noticed her husband's unusual expression and said no more. Ouyang Liqun smiled and nodded, "Uncle, you all take care."
Wan Yunting pulled his sister past and glanced at him without saying anything. Ouyang Liqun then smiled and said, "Cousin, can I borrow you for a moment?"
Ouyang Zhixin, Xia Xiangyun, and Wan Dongming froze, turning to look at Ouyang Liqun, unsure what he wanted to say to Wan Yunting.
Wan Yunting gave his father a reassuring look and smiled, "Mom, Dad, you go ahead. I'll catch up later."
"Brother..."
Ouyang Fanmeng wanted to say something, but Wan Yunting smiled at her and let her leave with their parents...
After everyone had left, Wan Yunting turned to look at Ouyang Liqun. Seeing his pale face and the sweat on his forehead, he asked, "Speak, what is it?"
Ouyang Liqun gazed at him for a few seconds before smiling, "Wan Yunting, I envy you. You have good luck!"
Wan Yunting was a bit confused by this statement. He said, "Luck is given by heaven, but actually, my luck isn't that great either!"
"Indeed."
Ouyang Liqun nodded and smiled, "You were lost by your uncle when you were little, you served a wrongful prison sentence for several years, and only now have you reunited with your uncle and aunt's family. So what you said last time was very right: fairness in this world is balanced!"
Wan Yunting looked at him and asked, "Then what do you want to say?"
Ouyang Liqun looked at him and smiled calmly, "Ji Ruxue found you last night and discussed conditions with you, didn't she?"
Wan Yunting's eyes narrowed slightly as he gazed at Ouyang Liqun, saying, "Then what do you mean?"
Ouyang Liqun met his gaze and finally smiled, "I promised her. I'll find time to go to the police station myself and talk to Director Huang about how I built the Qun Long drug trafficking empire abroad all these years!"
Wan Yunting's heart stirred. He looked directly at him and asked with confusion, "Why would you do that?"
Ouyang Liqun shook his head and smiled, "So Wan Yunting, you win!"
Wan Yunting raised an eyebrow and watched Ouyang Liqun's retreating figure, leaving him filled with confusion, unable to understand why he would make such a choice!
However, at this moment, he felt the loneliness and despair behind Ouyang Liqun, which made Wan Yunting even more curious about his relationship with Ji Ruxue.
He would rather jeopardize his remaining life by willingly surrendering to the police for Ji Ruxue's condition?
"What is he doing this for?"
Wan Yunting looked at Ouyang Liqun's receding back, murmuring to himself, unable to figure it out.
At the entrance of the mansion, Ouyang Zhixin and Xia Xiangyun, Ouyang Fanmeng and Duan Yingying, with his second brother and sister-in-law and Wan'er, saw Wan Yunting finally come out. Fanmeng went up and linked his arm, asking, "Brother, what did Brother Liqun talk to you about?"
Wan Yunting shook his head slightly and smiled, "Nothing much. Let's go."
Ouyang Zhixin saw his son give him a reassuring look and nodded with a smile, "Then let's get in the car and go."
"Okay..."
Wan Dongming and Wang Chulin nodded with smiles, took Wan'er into one car, and Duan Yingying also followed.
Wan Yunting and Ouyang Fanmeng naturally sat in the same car with their parents, and they drove off towards the Great Wall Scenic Area in the capital...
On the way, he also called Gu Luotang. She and Qi Miaomiao had already set off for the Great Wall Scenic Area, and they would be meeting up with Wan Yunting and his family...
