Chapter 772: All in Vain
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Xie Pinggang had seen many people with bad luck.
How many people ca to the criminal division who were hopeful to make a fortune?
All of them either lost their fortune or their lives. Most of the people who ca in alive were not good people. They deserved their bad luck. Most of the people who ca in dead were murdered for money. So even had their whole family killed in big cases. All of them were worse off than Dong Yiyun.
Therefore, it was difficult for him to sympathize with her.
“Senior Aunty Mo told her about her situation very clearly. Unfortunately, she didn’t listen...” Xie Qiao was helpless.
“Then... even if sothing happened, she deserved it,” Xie Pinggang said coldly, “What’s wrong with what Master Mo said? However... we’re already engaged. I can’t just ignore it...”
Before Xie Pinggang could finish his sentence, soone rushed over in a hurry.
He rushed in Xie Pinggang’s direction.
He stood at the entrance of the criminal division. After that person dismounted, he panted and said, “Master Xie! Sothing bad has happened. I just heard that the Second Young Lady Dong... is dead!”
He happened to be walking near the Dong Residence. He could not help but eavesdrop when he saw an old woman with a stunned expression mumbling sothing…
Eventually, he found out that she was dead.
He initially thought that there was so misunderstanding, but after he went in and asked in detail, he found out that it was true.
Xie Qiao furrowed her brows and clenched her fists.
It was the third day since she had told Dong Yiyun’s fortune.
Xie Pinggang’s expression also changed. What he said just now was rather heartless, but he was the one who was engaged, and she died in the blink of an eye. Was this not all in vain?!
“How did she die?” He imdiately asked.
“I don’t know the details. When I went in to inquire, I heard that Young Lady Dong was d-dissatisfied with the marriage and committed suicide...”
“Nonsense!” Xie Pinggang directly cursed.
That Young Lady Dong had co to him personally and asked him if he could marry her. How could she commit suicide because she was dissatisfied with the marriage?!
“Master Xie, don’t be angry... The news… ca from the Dong family. I’m not sure about the details...” The ssenger looked nervous.
“Call a few people and follow to the Dong Residence to have a look!” Xie Pinggang said fiercely.
“Yes, sir!”
That person took his order imdiately.
In a short while, he called seven or eight brothers.
Just as he was about to leave, the Crown Prince also ca out of the criminal division. He glanced at Xie Qiao and then at Xie Pinggang, “I initially wanted to have a drink with you today to celebrate your engagent. Now that sothing like this has happened, I’ll follow you and your sister to check it out.”
Xie Pinggang was just about to say that he had never intended for Xie Qiao to go…
However, he stopped when he was about to say it.
It was grat for the Crown Prince and his foolish sister to spend more ti together to cultivate their relationship.
“Thank you, Your Highness, for helping make the decision.” Xie Pinggang was quite well-behaved.
With the Crown Prince around, there were a few more people in the group.
Xie Qiao and the Crown Prince sat in the sa carriage. The interior of the carriage was quite spacious. Now that the two of them were engaged, it would not be an issue for them to spend so ti together in private.
However, Xie Qiao was pretending to be a demure lady from a wealthy family and did not talk much. She was sitting close to the Crown Prince, so she could not say much.
The Dong Residence was in a ss.
Master Dong had already received the ssage and returned ho.
At the mont, Dong Yiyun’s corpse was already placed on the bed. Her face was completely drained of blood, and there was a serious ligature mark on her neck. It was a shocking sight.
When Xie Qiao arrived, Master Dong personally ca to welco the Crown Prince. His expression was respectful but sowhat embarrassed.
Especially when he saw Xie Pinggang, his anger surged. However, due to the presence of the Crown Prince, it was inappropriate to chase him away.
“Young Lady Dong is my unwed wife after all. Now that she has suddenly passed away, I have to find out how she died,” Xie Pinggang said.
“You!” Master Dong glared at him. “Y-You are pretending.. I thought that you two were in love with each other, so I agreed to the marriage. I didn’t expect that you were the one who forced her!”
