The General's Little Peasant Wife

Chapter 226: No need to intervene

Translator: Vesper

She would take revenge on her own, and there was no need for others to intervene.

The sky gradually darkened. Xiao Qi Feng and his brother hadn’t left but were hidden in the dark. There wasn’t any movement even during the middle of the night, and this made Xiao Qi Feng wonder whether Qiao Tian Chang had guessed wrongly. Maybe they wouldn’t come after all.

“Just keep watching.” Qiao Tian Chang said in response to their doubts.

Xiao Qi Feng raised his eyebrows and didn’t ask anymore. Since Qiao Tian Chang had already said to wait, then he would wait.

They waited for about two more hours. At this time when many should be tired and sound asleep, Xiao Qi Feng heard a subtle sound.

He got invigorated immediately from his tired state of mind. They looked at each other with a cold smile on the corners of their mouth. It seems that the people whom they were waiting for were here to seek their deaths.

Ning Meng Yao sat on the roof, concealing her breath as she looked ahead. Soon, there was a faint smile on her face despite her cold eyes.

After a while, a group of people in black appeared in the courtyard. One of them whispered to the people beside him, “Find Ning Meng Yao and take her away as fast as you can.”

Qiao Tian Chang heard them in the dark and his face turned cold instantly. It seems like Yao Yao was their target again.

Ning Meng Yao reached out to hold onto Qiao Tian Chang’s arm. With a faint smile on her face, her lips moving slightly to comfort him without a sound.

The warmth on his arm greatly reduced the rage in his heart. He had almost forgotten that his Yao Yao was no longer the same as before. The her now had martial arts that was on par with his, she could protect herself well and not get hurt.

Xiao Qi Feng was worried that Qiao Tian Chang would spoil the plan at first. Who knew that Ning Meng Yao could appease him at once which completely eased their worries.

They waited for the people to enter the courtyard quietly before Qiao Tian Chang waved his hand and their surrounding was lit up by Lei An and the rest.

Qiao Tian Chang and his group leaped into the courtyard. Seeing the people in black in front of their eyes full of panic, the corners of his mouth carried a faint ridicule.

“What can I do for you, coming here at this hour?” Qiao Tian Chang questioned the people in front of him.

Sensing that more and more are surrounding them, the leader of the men in black immediately understood that they had been plotted against.

“Withdraw, now.”

Qiao Tian Chang sneered, “Withdraw? This is not a place where you can just come and go as you wish. If anyone were to escape, Lei An and the rest of you better be prepared to go home.”

“Yes, Boss. Get them and capture them alive.” Lei An shrunk his neck. He was sure that what his boss meant by going home does not simply mean going back to the military camp.

Under Lei An’s orders, the people in the courtyard immediately charged towards the group of men in black. The person who led them was tangled with Qiao Tian Chang and he gestured to the person beside him.

He nodded at the sight of gesture and dodged Lin Zi You’s attack before appearing in front of Ning Meng Yao and fastening his hands around her neck.

“Qiao Tian Chang, tell your men to stop. Otherwise, I will kill her.” After capturing Ning Meng Yao, he calmed himself down and shouted at the courtyard.

Qiao Tian Chang turned to see Ning Meng Yao. Seeing that she was still well and only captured, he remained at ease.

When the leader of the men in black saw their target captured, he couldn’t help but laugh out loud. Wonderful.

“Qiao Tian Chang, if you want your wife, return those things.”

“Qiao Lin, I didn’t think that the person to come would be you.” Qiao Tian Chang responded, almost as if he failed to understand Qiao Lin who was in front of him.

Qiao Lin didn’t get flustered when his identity was recognized. He tore away the black mask on his face and said, “Third Young Master has great sight. As long as you hand over the things, nothing will happen to Third Young Lady.”

Qiao Tian Chang glanced at Qiao Lin with a slight smile, his face full of ridicule, “Oh? Qiao Lin, why don’t you look who’s here with us tonight?”

Qiao Lin had a bad feeling about it. He turned his head subconsciously to see both Xiao Qi Feng and Xiao Qi Tian whose faces were dark with anger.

Just now, they were only focused on capturing Ning Meng Yao and did not pay any attention to the onlookers. Now that they had seen Xiao Qi Feng and Xiao Qi Tian all of a sudden, they knew that their plan had failed. Those two knew everything.

“Your Majesty...” Qiao Lin mumbled, his voice so soft that only he could hear himself.

“How impressive of the Qiao family.”
