Transmigrator Meets Reincarnator

Chapter 241: Dealing With Her

Fuyan didn't even get a chance to speak. The words had barely sunk into her head when she heard a light crack, quickly followed by an intense pain in her jaw that overwhelmed her senses. Her forehead broke out into cold sweat from the pain.

She couldn't even close her mouth, so how would she be able to say anything?

He Changdi threw her to the ground, where she sprawled out in a pitiful manner. She was in so much pain that she couldn't even straighten her back.

He Sanlang had just dislocated her jaw!

Following that, He Changdi ordered, "Servants, come in and take her away!"

Someone pushed open the door to the study a second time. The person who entered was none other than He Changdi's manservant, Laiyue.

Laiyue had come in with two guards. With a wave of his hand, they swiftly dragged Fuyan out.

After Fuyan was taken away, Laiyue secured the door before reporting to his master.

"Third Young Master, after some investigation, we found that it was someone from Qingxi Hall."

"Who is she serving?"

"She's a third-ranked maidservant who used to do menial chores in Qingxi Hall. When Eldest Madam and Miss Pan returned to the estate, Senior Servant Liu promoted her and assigned her to serve Eldest Madam."

"Send someone to keep an eye on her."

Laiyue acknowledged the order, but he didn't leave right away. He stood at He Changdi's side, appearing as if he was hesitating to speak.

He Changdi turned a bland look on him.

Laiyue felt a chill roll through his body from head to toe, startling him into action.

"It's about Third Young Madam. Third Young Madam's servants already know that Fuyan came in earlier."

After listening to Laiyue's report, a trace of panic appeared in He Changdi's eyes. However, he managed to get his emotions under control in short order.

"I understand. You're dismissed."

Leaving behind that order, He Sanlang abruptly broke into a quick stride and exited the study. He seemed to be going towards the direction of the bedroom.

Laiyue was still rooted to the same spot in confusion.

What exactly was going on? Wasn't his master still mad at Third Young Madam? Why did it seem like he was in a rush?

Since he couldn't understand it, Laiyue decided that it was better to stop thinking about it. A bachelor like him wouldn't be able to understand the goings-on between couples anyway. It would be more practical to just go back to his room and rest early.

He Changdi slowed down only when he reached the parlour. He suddenly realised that he was still holding the letter in his hand.

He paused in his steps and held up the letter, staring at it for a few seconds. A shadow fell over He Sanlang's eyes and he walked towards the brazier. With a quick flick of his hand, the unopened letter fell into the fire. The greedy flames quickly crept over the paper. It only took a few seconds before the letter turned into a pile of ashes.

He Sanlang breathed a sigh of relief after he watched the letter turn to dust. The knot of emotions within his eyes seemed to have disappeared along with the letter.

He turned around and walked towards the bedroom, his rapid pace betraying his sense of urgency.

Wenlan was on the night shift, so she was the one who heard his arrival from the side room. Knowing that it was He Changdi, she didn't come out to disturb him.
