Of course, there was another audience member watching all of this, and that was Wei Tingyu!

At this moment, he was wearing a jade fox mask, standing on the top of a tree outside the courtyard, looking at the scene in front of him through the gaps in the leaves!

After confirming that this was the fishing village where Zhuang Hanyan grew up, he rushed over without saying a word, and just happened to arrive!

Not to mention that Zhuang Hanyan is one of his intended leading ladies, even if it were a girl he didn't know, he would definitely step in to help her when she encountered all this!

Thinking of this, Wei Tingyu gently pointed and used his internal force to press Zhang Youchang's acupoint from a distance.

Before he could even tear open Zhuang Hanyan's clothes, he felt a sudden blow to his back, and then his entire body became immobile.

His body stiffened, and Zhuang Hanyan immediately gained a certain degree of freedom!

Seeing that the other person's ferocious expression was still on his face, she was terrified and subconsciously grabbed the wooden hairpin next to her, closed her eyes and stabbed it into Zhang Youchang's neck!

Zhang Youchang was completely unable to move, let alone dodge or block! He could only watch helplessly as the other person's hand pierced his body with a wooden hairpin. Then, accompanied by a sharp pain, his eyes rolled back and he collapsed.

"Husband!" Zhang Youchang's wife, who had been watching her husband commit violence against Zhuang Hanyan from a distance inside the house, rushed out like a madwoman when she saw him fall.

After all, in this era, it is really difficult for a woman whose husband has died to survive! Especially since Zhang Youchang's wife doesn't even have a son and is quite plain-looking, she may only be able to beg on the streets to survive in the future.

The woman, thinking of her tragic future, rushed in front of Zhang Youchang. Seeing the gruesome sight of blood spurting from his neck, she was instantly terrified.

"You...you..." She looked at Zhuang Hanyan, whose face and head were covered in blood, with a look of horror. Her finger trembled slightly as she pointed at her, but she couldn't utter a complete sentence.

Instead, Zhuang Hanyan's initially terrified gaze turned sharp the moment she saw the other person's expression!

At that moment, she realized that she had killed someone, and that the person she had killed was her nominal adoptive father!

If such a heinous act is exposed, the person facing such a fate will likely be dead! They might even be torn to pieces as a warning to others!

Although Zhuang Hanyan knew she was acting in self-defense, and that she had long been bullied by Zhang Youchang and his wife, making her actions understandable, she wondered if the officials in the government offices would believe her.

Just think about it, it's absolutely impossible!

So, in order to save her own life, Zhuang Hanyan's eyes suddenly widened, and she stabbed Zhang Youchang's wife with the wooden hairpin in her hand.

This woman was ruthless in bullying Zhuang Hanyan, often beating and verbally abusing her! Moreover, she pocketed all the money and food sent by Zhuang Hanyan's family, so she can hardly be considered a good person.

Furthermore, it was this woman who came up with the idea of ​​selling Zhuang Hanyan into a brothel, so strictly speaking, she was the mastermind.

Thinking of this, Zhuang Hanyan showed even more mercy and, under the stunned and panicked gaze of the other party, plunged the wooden hairpin into her neck.

After all, practice makes perfect when it comes to murder, and Zhuang Hanyan was indeed experienced at this point.

A small wooden hairpin might not even pierce the chest; it could be blocked by the ribs. On the contrary, the neck is particularly flexible, and a gentle push can take a life.

Wei Tingyu watched all of this from the shadows, but never came out to interfere. Because according to the original plot, this was exactly what Zhuang Hanyan was supposed to experience!

These processes are essential for her to truly mature as a leading lady!

Moreover, Zhang Youchang and his wife truly deserved to die, and Wei Tingyu showed them no pity whatsoever!

As Zhang Youchang's wife collapsed heavily to the ground, her face filled with disbelief, Zhuang Hanyan regained consciousness due to the heavy rain.

She was completely dumbfounded when she saw the two corpses in front of her and herself covered in blood.

Once the rage of killing faded from his heart, all that remained was terror and fear.

Zhuang Hanyan sat by the well, holding the wooden hairpin, staring blankly ahead for a full quarter of an hour.

At that moment, a beautiful woman dressed in black walked silently into the courtyard.

The woman held a sharp sword in her right hand and an oil-paper umbrella in her left. After entering, she only glanced at the two corpses on the ground before going straight to Zhuang Hanyan and squatting down.

Moreover, the look in his eyes when he looked at the other person was full of heartache!

Chai Jing! This female assassin, who was both Zhuang Hanyan's mentor and friend, has indeed appeared!

When Wei Tingyu saw this woman appear, he smiled to himself. He knew that this female assassin was not only handsome and dashing with a heroic air between her brows, but also quite skilled!

Currently, she is slightly inferior to Ren Ruyi, but there are not many people who can beat her.

Most importantly, when Wei Tingyu first watched the show, she had some doubts or speculations about the relationship between Chai Jing and Zhuang Hanyan.

The interaction between the two didn't really resemble that of best friends; it was more like that of a couple.

Of course, they didn't do anything beyond friendship, but they were both willing to give their lives for each other.

This led to many viewers becoming extremely enthusiastic about shipping these two women as a couple!

Beautiful girls! It's quite common for them to have some lesbian tendencies! Wei Tingyu smiled inwardly, thinking that it would be perfect to straighten out their complicated thoughts.

These two women, who both harbored feelings for each other, will one day be embraced by him! When that day comes... it will surely be a wonderful feeling!

Just as Wei Tingyu was plotting how to bring these two women into his household, Zhuang Hanyan naturally sensed Chai Jing's arrival. She didn't even need to look up to know who the person holding the umbrella for her was.

"I killed him!" Zhuang Hanyan sighed slightly and then admitted what she had just done.

"Don't be afraid!" However, Chai Jing didn't care about the two corpses at all. He just looked at Zhuang Hanyan with worry and heartache and said, "Come with me!"

In the occasional flashes of lightning, Wei Tingyu clearly saw the look in Chai Jing's eyes.

Good heavens! This woman is definitely trying to seduce her future wife!

Upon seeing this, Wei Tingyu narrowed his eyes.

Of course, Wei Tingyu also realized at this moment that Chai Jing really did have lesbian tendencies! Her feelings for Zhuang Hanyan definitely went beyond those of ordinary friends!

However, it is clear that this relationship is one-sided. Zhuang Hanyan probably only regards her as a mentor and friend!

"No!" Zhuang Hanyan stared blankly at the two corpses in front of her, then said, "I'm going to the capital!"

After saying this, Zhuang Hanyan even began to breathe heavily! It was clear that making this decision was not easy, so saying this almost exhausted all her remaining strength.

"Why?!" Upon hearing Zhuang Hanyan's words, Chai Jing's face first showed a look of surprise, and then his heroic eyebrows furrowed.

You know what! This woman actually has some charm right now!

If Zhuang Hanyan weren't outwardly gentle but inwardly strong, any other woman might have been dragged into a lesbian relationship by Chai Jing!

“That…is still my home!” Zhuang Hanyan answered directly, and then slowly stood up with Chai Jing’s help.

Then, with a resolute expression, he turned around and threw the wooden hairpin into the well next to him.

Seeing this, Wei Tingyu was speechless! You two knew you were going to destroy the evidence, so couldn't you have done it more thoroughly?

They threw the murder weapon directly into the well at the scene. Don't they know that there are people in this world who can dive down and retrieve things?

Such a big fishing village! It's surrounded by lakes and forests. If you just break this wooden hairpin off and throw it anywhere, no one will even find it! Or you could just burn it down to avoid all that trouble!

All I can say is that some of the characters in these so-called female-centric dramas have such questionable logic that Wei Tingyu is speechless!

You could say they're smart, they certainly are! But they often slip up on these obvious issues!

"Wait! Let me set up the scene!" After seeing the wooden hairpin sink into the well and disappear, Chai Jing turned to Zhuang Hanyan and said, "You'd better come up with an explanation, because we can't let people pin this on you!"

"Yes!" Zhuang Hanyan had made up her mind. Her gaze was no longer filled with hesitation and fear, but instead she nodded firmly and said, "I've already decided! I'll say it's robbery and murder by bandits!"

Upon hearing this, Chai Jing nodded, then drew the dagger from his waist, intending to inflict several more wounds on Zhang Youchang and his wife, and use the dagger wounds to cover the marks left by the wooden hairpin.

After all, if it were truly thieves committing murder, they would only use weapons like swords and daggers, not something as feminine as hairpins and bracelets!

If you're going to put on a show, you have to go all the way!

As for other physical evidence such as footprints, they are all fine, because tonight's torrential rain will wash away all traces in the yard!

However, just after Chai Jing finished off the two men, his eyes suddenly furrowed as he remembered something he had just overlooked.

"Did you really kill these two people by yourself with a wooden hairpin?" Chai Jing stood up and asked Zhuang Hanyan with a serious expression.

“Yes!” Zhuang Hanyan was taken aback, and then frowned after seeing Chai Jing’s expression.

Because at that moment, she also realized that something seemed a little off!

If Zhang Youchang's wife, this peasant woman, had been killed by him with a wooden hairpin in a moment of panic, that would have been one thing. But Zhang Youchang... a strong middle-aged man, died directly in the hands of this weak woman?

This doesn't sound like it's very likely!

"How did you do that?" Thinking of this, Chai Jing stepped forward again, grasped Zhuang Hanyan's wrist and took her pulse. He found that her pulse was still relatively weak, and her constitution was worse than that of other girls of the same age.

That makes the whole thing seem even more illogical!

“At that time…” Zhuang Hanyan frowned and began to recall, “He originally wanted to tear my clothes, I struggled desperately, and then…”

Then he suddenly stopped moving!

"I seized the opportunity, picked up the wooden hairpin that had fallen to the side, and then plunged it into his neck..."

"This time is not short either, it's probably several breaths!"

Zhuang Hanyan's brows furrowed more and more as she spoke, because she herself felt that something was wrong!

"For several breaths... he just stood there motionless?" Chai Jing frowned, his eyes darting around in their sockets, as if he were rapidly considering all the possibilities.

"Could it be the will of Heaven?" Zhuang Hanyan knew nothing about martial arts, and in her opinion, only God's intervention could make this possible.

However, if God were truly willing to open His eyes and punish evil, how could He have allowed Him to be bullied for over a decade without taking any action?

"It's not God!" Chai Jing suddenly turned around and looked at Zhuang Hanyan, saying, "It's someone secretly helping you!"

"Someone is secretly...helping me?" Upon hearing this, Zhuang Hanyan quickly turned around and looked around, only to find the entire courtyard eerily quiet! Apart from the sound of raindrops falling, there was no other movement!

"Friends in the shadows, please come out and meet us!" Chai Jing, after all, was a person of the martial arts world, having traveled far and wide and seen many things. She had already guessed that there were experts nearby, and since the other party had helped Zhuang Hanyan, it meant that they probably had no ill intentions.

Since Chai Jing had extended an invitation to him, Wei Tingyu, a grown man, naturally had no reason to be coy.

He released his breath, leaped lightly from the treetop, and landed gracefully in front of the two women in the courtyard.
