Chapter 1466: Can’t Take It Anymore

Editor: Henyee Translations

Qiao Wei fixed a piercing glare on Qiao Xuan and sneered, “Continue being arrogant. I’d like to see how long your arrogance lasts.”

“You’re quite familiar with those words, aren’t you? Maybe you should reflect on them yourself.”

“Miss, let’s depart.” Qiu He cast a reproachful glance at Qiao Xuan before assisting Qiao Wei away.

Qiao Xuan blinked, her gaze lingering on Qiu He’s retreating figure.

Meanwhile, Lixia, Liqiu, and the others engaged in light-hearted banter. Qiao Xuan smiled and remarked, “I’ll go wash my hands. Enjoy your rest!”

The three of them agreed and took their leave.

Qiao Xuan activated her powers to eavesdrop on the conversation between Qiao Wei and Qiu He.

“This woman is intentionally tormenting me! She’s singling me out on purpose! I can’t endure it any longer. Tell me, when are we going to strike? How have you been in contact with them?!”

“Miss, please be cautious; the walls have ears—”

“Shut up! I can’t stand these baseless excuses any longer! Don’t underestimate me. Let me remind you, if you provoke me further, don’t blame me for breaking our association! Remember that you’re nothing more than my servant now!”

Anger flashed across Qiu He’s face, but she suppressed it.

Having witnessed Qiao Xuan’s relentless bullying and humiliation of Qiao Wei in recent days, Qiu He couldn’t help but sympathize with her.

Madame Shao had crossed the line; her scolding knew no bounds. She was cunning and hit her targets precisely. It was unbearable for anyone to endure.

However, Qiao Wei was a sharp-tongued woman with a fiery temper. She had a knack for hurling harsh words and stomping her feet in frustration. If Qiu He hadn’t offered comfort behind her back, she might have exploded.

But even then, it was hard to watch.

Seeing Qiu He’s continued silence, Qiao Wei grew even more furious. She pounded the carriage seat and demanded, “Speak up already! What are you waiting for?”

Qiu He felt irritated, but she understood that Qiao Wei wouldn’t relent until she received some answers. She couldn’t help but feel frustrated with Qiao Xuan as well.

But who could she blame? Given Qiao Wei’s temperament, when Qiao Xuan was still just a girl in the Qiao Family, she was a lowly daughter of a concubine with no one to rely on. It would have been unusual if Qiao Wei hadn’t mistreated her. Now that their positions had almost reversed, and revenge was in the air, what could she do?

So, she decided to play it cool and nonchalantly, casually, and indifferently deceive her. After all, this dim-witted woman was clueless about what lay ahead.

“If you insist, I’ll tell you,” Qiu He whispered. “But remember, you mustn’t reveal this to anyone. No matter what Madame Shao does, you must endure it.”

“In three days, there will be individuals lying in wait within the Black Tiger Forest…”

“Black Tiger Forest? What kind of place is that?” Qiao Wei had no recollection of it.

Reluctantly, Qiu He had to offer an explanation. “It’s a forest that has grown for countless years, stretching hundreds of miles. We’ll need to cross it when we return to Huning City, a total distance of around 30 miles. It’s filled with ancient towering trees, creeping vines, and dim lighting—a perfect location for an ambush.”

“Three days from now, you say?”

“Yes.”

“Fine, then I’ll endure that woman for three more days! Inform them that when the time comes, let that woman live. I’ve had a change of heart. I want her to wish she were dead…”

This was followed by a string of venomous curses.

Qiao Xuan withdrew her powers.

Black Tiger Forest?

In reality, her husband Sun Bai, Sun Qian, and the others had already discussed it. They were well aware that the Black Tiger Forest was a perilous spot for ambushes and had long prepared accordingly.
