Rebirth of the Superpower Queen

Chapter 186 Mysterious Woman

"How about it? Have you thought about it?" Meng Zhiling grabbed Ming Shunqi's hair, lifted it slightly, and looked down at him condescendingly.

At this moment, in everyone's eyes, Meng Zhiling was a demon king, a devil who killed people without blinking. Her bright red eyes made people dare not look directly at her, and the murderous aura around her made no one dare to approach her.

Even Ming Yi, who was closest to her, had to sigh that youth was indeed more vigorous and he was almost conquered by Meng Zhiling's murderous aura.

"I'll say it again as before. I did it alone, so I'll take the responsibility alone." Unexpectedly, Ming Shunqi kept his mouth shut. He gritted his teeth and spoke every word sharply.

"Alone? If you were truly alone, you wouldn't emphasize being alone so much. Tell me, isn't there Ming Jian? And then there's the Second Miss of the Ming family, and Mrs. Ming, right?"

Meng Zhiling smiled and spoke. No one could see when she made the move, but they heard a scream from behind her. Without looking at the person, just by listening to the voice, one could tell that the owner of the scream was Ming Jian.

Following the sound, I saw a very thin knife stuck in Mingjian's eye. It looked like a pocket-sized version of the sword used in fencing today. It was accurately inserted into Mingjian's left eye. As he screamed, his hand stayed in mid-air, not daring to touch it at all. The shocking blood also added a lot of "fun" to the moonlight in the middle of the night.

"Ming Jian, Ming Jian!" Ming Shunqi looked at the terrifying and ferocious Ming Jian, stood up suddenly, threw himself in front of Ming Jian, grabbed his hand, tears streaming down his face.

The people present had already turned pale, and some didn't even dare to open their eyes to see this scene. With so many people, no one dared to stand up and directly confront Meng Zhiling.

"I beg you, please let Ming Jian go. He knows nothing. It's all my fault. You can do whatever you want to me, but don't hurt him." Then, Ming Shunqi crawled towards Meng Zhiling again, pulled her trouser legs, and begged bitterly.

"Everyone else can do what they should do. The second lady of the Ming family stays here." Meng Zhiling kicked Ming Shunqi away and glanced around the huge room. Seeing that everyone was trembling with fear, she knew that her purpose of making a show of force had been achieved, so she said coldly.

Those who were not called to stay rushed out of the house, fearing that Meng Zhiling would change her mind the next second and make them return to that "hell" to suffer again.

"What does this matter have to do with me? I still don't know why you gathered everyone here in the middle of the night, okay?" After everyone left, only Meng Zhiling, Ming Yi, Ming Jian's grandfather and grandson, and the second Miss Ming were left in the room. The second Miss Ming finally calmed down and mustered up the courage to excuse herself.

"Yes, I know you can get to know me slowly. Once I get to know you, I will know whether it has anything to do with you or not." Meng Zhiling raised her eyebrows. She didn't want to listen to her nonsense. Here, she had to control the situation. Whether it had anything to do with you or not was not up to them to decide.

"Ming Shunqi, tell me, with your ability, it is definitely not possible to bring such a precious and rare animal to Linhai City so easily. Since you said that you did everything, then tell me, who gave you this poisonous snake?" Meng Zhiling picked up the transparent bag again and deliberately put the snake in front of Miss Ming Er.

Second Miss Ming shuddered, screamed, and bounced back. Her face became even paler. Finally, after making sure that the snake was dead, she calmed down a little.

"Who gave me the snake? It was her, yes, it was her!" Ming Shunqi seemed to be recalling something, and finally pointed his finger in the direction of Ming Yu, the second lady of the Ming Dynasty.

Ming Yu was so frightened when he saw this that he fell to the ground. After a few seconds, he immediately started to throw a tantrum, "Uncle, what grudge do I have against you? I've been pretty good to you normally, why are you slandering me like this?"

"I slandered you? Didn't you tell me to do it boldly and no one would know? But what about now? The truth is revealed, and you deny it." Ming Shunqi seemed to be speaking with confidence, but Meng Zhiling had been observing the micro-expressions of the two.

Ming Shunqi's voice and tone seemed to make sense and he had the upper hand, while Ming Yu was hesitant and didn't know where to start explaining. However, the careful Meng Zhiling discovered that when Ming Shunqi spoke, his eyes were always flickering, showing his standard habit of lying, so he could only use a loud voice to cover up his inner guilt.

Trying to divert Meng Zhiling and Ming Yi's attention.

"Okay, stop arguing. I know which of you two is telling the truth. Ming Shunqi, I'm asking you again, who gave you this thing? If you don't tell the truth this time, your precious grandson will probably have to spend the rest of his life in a hospital bed." Meng Zhiling looked at Ming Shunqi sharply. At least, she was sure that Ming Yu really had the intention of stealing but not the courage. However, this time, it was just a lesson for her. It would be better not to have the intention of stealing in the future.

"No, no, no, let me tell you!" Ming Shunqi saw that Meng Zhiling was really going to take ruthless action against Ming Jian, so he immediately gave in.

"Ming Yu, are you interested in listening? If not, just leave." Meng Zhiling looked at Ming Yu before Ming Shunqi started to speak.

Ming Yu shook his head as if he had been pardoned, and then quickly left the room that everyone regarded as hell.

"Go ahead and tell me everything you know, without missing a single word." Meng Zhiling sat down on the chair, slowly waiting for the truth to come out.

"Actually, it was really me who wanted to kill you, not Mingjian. I saw how close you were to Ming Shunde, and since you're his granddaughter, you're closer to him than Mingjian is. So I was afraid he'd really give you all his wealth, and Mingjian wouldn't get a penny. What would he do then? But as for the method of killing you, it was someone else who told me. That person said you were very powerful, and even hired assassins might not be able to kill you, so they asked me to find the right method."

As Ming Shunqi spoke, he looked at Ming Jian, who was still rolling on the ground with blood in his eyes. He was anxious, but he didn't dare to negotiate with Meng Zhiling. He also knew that even if he did, she would not listen. How could such a cruel person care about someone else's eye or life?

"Who is that man? Is he the one who gave you the fire snake?" Meng Zhiling narrowed her eyes slightly, and one could already feel her uncontrollable bloodthirsty heart.

"I don't know that person, and I don't know her name. She's a young woman, probably about your age, and quite pretty." Ming Shunqi spoke much more sincerely at this time. Meng Zhiling knew that he was not lying. Now that things had come to this, he didn't dare to lie.

"Haha, what a good trick to kill someone with a borrowed knife. Mingyi, please help me find a doctor for Mingjian, or send him to the hospital?" Meng Zhiling searched in her mind. A young and beautiful woman wanted to take her life, but she didn't realize that there was anyone who hated her so much.

Unless it was Wu Xiwen who died before, could it be that Wu Xiwen is not dead?

Meng Zhiling quickly denied her own thoughts. She was certain that Wu Xiwen had been buried at the bottom of the sea with Uncle Jiang, and there was no possibility of survival. So if this possibility was ruled out, she really couldn't find anyone with whom she had such a deep hatred.

Ming Yi didn't say anything, picked up Ming Jian and went out. If he continued like this, it would be a serious problem. Not only would he lose his eyesight, he might even lose his life. After all, he was his nephew. No matter how much he disliked him, he didn't hate him to the point of wanting him dead.

"Do you still remember what that woman looked like?" Meng Zhiling asked again after everyone left.

"It's not that I don't remember, it's that I simply didn't see that person's appearance clearly. When she saw me, she always wore a veil, and I could only see that she had a pair of very beautiful eyes, as if they could bewitch people's souls. That's why I concluded that she must be very beautiful." Ming Shunqi answered seriously. Now that he had come to this, he had nothing to hide. His plan to frame Ming Yu had already been seen through by Meng Zhiling, so now he had no choice but to answer every question and detail honestly.

Seeing that she couldn't get any information out of him, Meng Zhiling stood up and slapped Ming Shunqi on the back of the head. Ming Shunqi fell down with a muffled sound. Just when she was about to end his life, she seemed to remember something and finally stopped. She picked him up and swaggered out of the Ming family and drove to the villa where Heizi was.

"Captain, why are you here at this time?" Heizi was the first to react when he heard the familiar sound of a car. When he got up and went downstairs, Meng Zhiling had already carried Ming Shunqi into the living room. Looking at the person on the ground, who was not sure whether he was dead or alive, Heizi asked in surprise.

"Find a secret place to lock this man up. Remember, don't let him die, and don't let him have an easy time. There's one more thing I need you to check for me." Meng Zhiling then recounted what happened after she came back from Southeast Asia. Heizi was terrified after hearing it. Fortunately, the captain was fine.

"Just find out who the woman who gave Ming Shunqi the Fire Snake is. If you find out, bring her to me and I'll take care of her." Meng Zhiling narrowed her eyes slightly, looking at the darkness outside the window, with a vague uneasiness in her heart. She knew that the fact that she was not dead but had come back to life through a dead body was probably no longer a secret in the "jianghu", but because of this open secret, it might bring a lot of unnecessary trouble to herself and the people around her.

This life is not as good as the previous one. In the previous life, after escaping from the clutches of Absalom, she was almost a killing weapon. She had no relatives or friends. Even if she did, they were those who were as capable as her, such as her senior brother and master who had betrayed her long ago. In this life, she has more concerns, and she cares about more things and people. So because of these, she feels unprecedented uneasiness and acts more steadily and cautiously.
