Chapter 471: Chapter 229: Intelligence Is a Hard Handicap
Su Qinwu regards herself as the future Queen, naturally dismissing others. In her view, apart from Gu Ningyi, whom she admires, everyone else is just expendable cannon fodder. If she can conquer them with a friendly attitude, she doesn’t mind giving some face; but if they defy her, then they shouldn’t blame her for being ruthless and inhuman!
Having lived two lives, she naturally knows that people subdued by sheer force are prone to rebellion, harboring hatred, and might turn against her at a critical moment. She initially wanted to win over Qianhe, because according to various online revelations, Qianhe’s childhood was extremely difficult and miserable—giving help in times of need is always more memorable than giving in times of abundance.
Unfortunately, Qianhe’s uncle didn’t take the hint and refused to let Qianhe leave with her, even resorting to physical conflict! For the past two years, Su Qinwu has been going smoothly and has become arrogant, so how could she tolerate such setbacks? At this moment, she decisively abandoned the idea of winning over and resolved to forcibly take Qianhe away, then erase her memory and train her into the most loyal death warrior! Absolutely loyal and never rebellious!
Being under house arrest by the Su Family, Su Qinwu understood many things and saw through many principles. Looking back now, she realized how foolish she was, blinded by the hatred of her previous life, only to endlessly bicker with that little brat, Su Qixin.
If... if she had chosen at the beginning to use her resources to build her own power, distancing herself from the Su Family, not limiting herself to a small domain, then when she became powerful... heh heh, let alone a Su Qixin who only relies on men, even wiping out a Su Family would be no problem! It’s just regrettable that she understood too late, but luckily, not too late, there is still a chance for redemption.
Because she valued Huaixi’s talent, Su Qinwu restrained the strange color on her face, remaining aloof and arrogant, but with less murderous intent. Parting her crimson lips slightly, she asked Huaixi, "Which family are you from? What’s your name? How dare you question my words?"
Huaixi furrowed his brows slightly, his hand hidden under his large sleeve slightly touching his waist, where hung a dagger he often played with, its blade sharp, also serving as his defensive weapon. This "strange grandmother" in front of him gave off too much of an unsettling vibe, much like the legendary pervert who specializes in abducting children. Qianhe’s uncle was injured, Qianhe couldn’t fight... could he only rely on himself?
"Mama said not to tell strangers my name or where I come from..." Huaixi thought quickly, secretly pressing the quick rescue signal on his smart brain, and then kept stalling for time, "So I can’t tell you..."
Listening to Huaixi speak so childishly, and then looking at his features, Su Qinwu only felt this child was exceptionally pure, although very talented, he seemed to have no opinions... Mm, such subordinates are the best, and the most handy weapons!
Just like a blank canvas, devoid of any color, a child like this is highly moldable. She could shape him in any way she liked... when the time comes, even if told to die, he would obediently comply.
Huaixi watched the smile on her lips, feeling a chill run down his tiny spine... he suddenly missed his noisy Little Bear younger brother, who, although rowdy, was far better than being stared at by this strange person. Sigh... he wondered when Mama would arrive.
"Oh, so that’s how it is." Su Qinwu said with a laugh, scrutinizing Huaixi carefully, thinking that not only was he talented and highly potential, but even his face was excellent. Given time, he would also be a handsome young man. She squinted her eyes slightly, and with a tempting tone asked, "Little brother, would you like to come with me? Whatever you want, you can get it."
As expected... he encountered a kidnapper, and a very low-level one at that... Huaixi’s expression remained blank, but inside he was already crying. Huaixi’s intelligence was still quite dependable; he considered his current advantage—though young, he had Telekinesis. If he launched a sneak attack, he just might take her down, yet he wondered if stalling would work...
After several considerations, he concluded that the key to escaping this predicament lay in two words—intelligence!
"I... I’m not going with you. What if my mom and dad can’t find me? Then what?" Huaixi recalled his family’s Little Bear brother, trying his best to align his expression and tone with him. To get rid of this villain, he felt his dignity shrank by half, "Besides... what if you’re lying to me?"
