After I stopped being a lady from a rich family, I fought all over the capital

Chapter 78 Only Visible to You and Me

"Tell me, what do you want me to do?"

Song Lan deliberately did not ask about the Zhang family's affairs, nor did he retract his foot, but just temporarily retracted some of his strength.

Liu Tian was able to catch his breath and didn't dare to be annoying anymore, so he replied obediently.

"Mrs. Cui, the eldest wife of the Zhang family, has died. Zhang Youguang killed all the servants who were on duty in Cui's courtyard and told the public that Cui was seriously ill. However, the servants lied to their superiors and subordinates, causing Cui's minor illness to develop into a serious one, which led to her sudden death."

Liu Tian tried hard to raise his head to see Song Lan's expression.

But with her face being stepped on by someone, she was powerless and could only guess Song Lan's mood based on her feelings.

Don't dare to take it lightly at all.

"I volunteered to take on the job of announcing the death to the Cui family, but I don't know what your Excellency means yet, so I don't dare to make a decision easily. So I would like to see your Excellency and ask--"

Hatred flashed in Liu Tian's eyes: "Zhang family or Cui family, which one do you want to see 'self-destruction' first?"

"That's interesting."

Song Lan raised his eyebrows and stomped his feet twice: "I have no grudges against the Cui family, why should I choose between the Zhang and Cui families?"

"Are you asking me this, or are you asking yourself this?"

Liu Tian was caught off guard and felt a sudden pain. He let out an uncontrollable "Ah!" and curled up his whole body.

"Damn you!"

He didn't know why, although it was only a few bruises, the pain felt like a thousand ants gnawing at his heart, seeping into his bones bit by bit, causing him extreme torture.

"I'm sorry... I, it's me. I want the Cui family to pay the price, but I was afraid that it would ruin your business, so I tried to test you. I was wrong, and I won't dare to do it again."

Liu Tian was soaked all over, as if he had been soaked in water.

"I don't dare anymore..."

At this moment, he felt as if all the bones in his body were broken and every bone joint was pierced by awls. The pain was unbearable.

But he clearly only injured his mouth and cheek.

In addition to the pain, he also felt more panic and fear.

So that he would not dare to have any rebellious thoughts anymore.

"How do you want to kill the Cui family?"

Song Lan didn't ask him why she wanted to kill. When she planned to kill Liu, she thought that if Liu Tian had the ability, he would definitely be able to find out that it was Liu who sent people to Qingtong Lane to threaten and kidnap people.

Liu Tian was a little surprised.

He thought Song Lan would ask further questions, but she seemed to have expected it.

Did he think too much?
Feeling the force on his face getting stronger, Liu Tian quickly collected his thoughts and dared not think about it anymore.

"I am going to conceal the real cause of Cui's death and help Zhang Youguang to reunite with the Cui family! Let the Cui family do their best to support Zhang Youguang. When the Cui family is hollowed out, I will reveal that Zhang Youguang killed his wife..."

Song Lan sneered, and Liu Tian dared not say anything more.

"If you keep calculating this and that slowly, when will I see you retaliate against the Zhang family?"

She deliberately said, "Could it be that you were lying to me when you knelt down and begged me to be my dog? You were just trying to buy time so that you could have a chance to bring honor to the Zhang family and become the top scholar?"

"I'm not!"

Liu Tian denied hastily: "I didn't, I..."

"You what?"

Song Lan sneered: "You said Zhang Youguang killed his wife, so he killed his wife? Who saw it? You?"

Liu Tian wanted to nod, but when he heard Song Lan's sneer, he pursed his lips tightly and dared not move.

"You said you saw it, so you did? You didn't even ask whether Jingzhao Prefecture would believe you! And whether they would accept your words as a confession and allow you to identify your biological father!"

Not to mention, Cui's soul was eaten by her.

Not to mention redressing her grievances in the human world, even in the underworld, there was no redress for her! This was a complete and utter death without any evidence.

"I……"

Liu Tian was left speechless and didn't know how to respond for a moment, and remained silent for a long time.

He was so nervous that he broke into a sweat. He was terrified that Song Lan would consider him useless and abandon him, so he racked his brains to think of a solution.

Song Lan had little patience with him.

"Why don't you just do this——"

She finished speaking softly, and Liu Tian's eyes suddenly lit up.

"Tian, I will live up to your expectations and get things done."

After hesitating for a moment, Liu Tian couldn't help but speak: "Sir, I will be a useful dog."

Don't treat him as a discarded pawn.

He subconsciously clenched his fists, suppressing the infinite hatred in his heart.

Song Lan glanced at him lightly without making any comment.

Any dog would be useful.

"get out!"

Hearing her emotionless voice, Liu Tian dared not say anything more. He kowtowed respectfully and politely, then crawled back a long way before he dared to stand up.

Just as they were about to go back the way they came, Song Lan suddenly shouted, "Wait a minute!"

Liu Tian stopped, turned around and knelt down again, looking up at her in confusion, and said respectfully: "My Lord, do you have any other instructions?"

"The wound on your face—" Song Lan pointed at the bloody mess at the corner of Liu Tian's mouth.

Liu Tian thought Song Lan was warning him not to talk nonsense, and hurriedly said, "Tian was in a hurry to report the death and accidentally fell..." He would never bring you up.

Song Lan rolled his eyes at him with disdain: "What I mean is that the wound on your face is invisible to others except you and me."

"Be careful not to let anyone see anything wrong."

Song Lan smiled maliciously: "Besides, the medicine from the mortal world is useless. It won't fester or get worse. Once the pain is over, the swelling and congestion will naturally subside."

"Just be patient in front of others."

"So as to avoid being arrested as a hysterical person."

Liu Tian suspected that Song Lan did it on purpose, but he didn't dare to say anything.

Instead, he showed a more respectful attitude than before and said, "Yes, Tian, thank you for the reward, sir."

Song Lan waved his hand with disgust and slapped the man out of the ghost realm.

Liu Tian only felt a gust of wind blowing past, and then he fell to the ground with a thud.

If it weren't for the obvious pain in his butt, he would even suspect that it was an illusion.

Who is Song Lan?
From what the Zhang family said, they didn't think much of Song Lan's background, but they were greedy for her, so they went to great lengths to maintain their engagement with her.

But does the Zhang family really know what kind of person the “orphan girl” they despise is?
Liu Tian didn't dare to think about it anymore. He wrinkled his clothes, staggered, and ran towards Cui's house with a sad look on his face.

When old master Zhang heard the noise and came out in slippers to ask what was going on, a white silk banner had already been hung in the yard over on the main side of the house.

After hearing the report from Zhang Bai, he was so angry that he threw his cane and shouted "idiot"!
Song Lan withdrew from the ghost domain.

He took the hot tea poured by Liu Wu and drank it all in two gulps.

Liu Wu hurriedly continued, "Sir..."

He wanted to ask how long they would sit here.

Pei Yuanshi also looked at Song Lan: "Miss Song, do you have——"
