Heaven-Sent Farm Girl Builds Her Fortune And Captures His Heart-Chapter 186: Truly Inhuman

"Let’s go back to Liuyun Town first." Duan Yunfei said, "Haoyue Manor belongs to the Huang Family. Chen Qi is just a son-in-law who married into the family. Huang Shu has a violent and domineering nature and would never allow Chen Qi to have affairs. If he did, it must have happened before Chen Qi married into the family."

"Before he married in?" Le Zhao frowned, "Wouldn’t that be something from a decade or two ago? Can we still find anything?"

Duan Yunfei said solemnly, "As long as it happened, we can find out."

With that, he jumped on his horse and was the first to ride away.

The remaining three hurriedly mounted their horses and followed.

After returning to Liuyun Town, the group split into four to privately inquire about things before Chen Qi became a son-in-law.

It wasn’t until the Hour of the Pig [9-11 PM] that they gathered at the inn.

As soon as Xuan Ying entered the door, he said dejectedly, "I didn’t get any information over here."

Xuan Ming also shook his head, "Nothing on my side either."

Duan Yunfei lowered his eyes in some disappointment.

But then Le Zhao said, "I did manage to find something."

Upon hearing this, Xuan Ying bit his teeth and said, "Since you know, why didn’t you say right away?"

Le Zhao chuckled softly, "Wasn’t I waiting for you to come back?"

Xuan Ying snorted coldly, "Then hurry up and say it."

"Alright, I’ll speak!" Le Zhao looked at Duan Yunfei and said, "I used a Moon Pearl to get some information from an old man."

"Spendthrift!" Xuan Ying muttered.

Le Zhao glanced at him, smiled, and continued, "He said that before Chen Qi became a son-in-law, he indeed had a wife."

"And then?" Xuan Ying asked eagerly.

"Xuan Ying!" Xuan Ming said helplessly, "Let Young Master Le finish."

"Oh!" Xuan Ying responded, intently staring at Le Zhao, as if urging him to continue.

Le Zhao said, "According to the old man, twenty years ago, before Chen Qi became a son-in-law to the Huang Family, he was just an unknown figure in Jianghu. Later, because of his handsome appearance, he caught the attention of Huang Tao, who brought him to Haoyue Manor and passed on the true teachings of the manor owner, which is how he gained his reputation."

"And his wife?" Xuan Ying frowned, "Didn’t Huang Tao know he had a wife?"

"Chen Qi, for the sake of his own advancement, naturally wouldn’t tell Huang Tao about this," Le Zhao said. "It was only about a month after he married Huang Tao that Huang Tao learned the truth about Chen Qi already having a wife, though they didn’t know the whereabouts of Madam Xu."

"What happened after?" Xuan Ying asked.

"After that, Huang Tao found Chen Qi’s wife, Madam Xu, who at the time was already five months pregnant."

"Pregnant?" Xuan Ying said angrily, slamming the table, "That Chen Qi is truly despicable, his wife was pregnant and he still married another woman!"

"Shut up." Duan Yunfei glanced at him, "Keep listening."

"Oh!" Xuan Ying shrank back and quickly sat properly.

Le Zhao cast an annoyed glance at Duan Yunfei but continued, "At that time, Chen Qi had no idea that Huang Tao already knew he had a wife. During the day, he continued practicing martial arts and swordsmanship at Haoyue Manor, and at night, when Huang Tao was asleep, he secretly went to visit Madam Xu."

"Madam Xu also didn’t know her husband had married another woman, believing he was just busy and only had time to come back at night."

"Too many secret deeds will eventually lead to exposure. Huang Tao couldn’t possibly sleep soundly every night. One night, Huang Tao secretly had people follow Chen Qi and found the place where Madam Xu was living."

"Early the next morning, Huang Tao used the excuse of having business to attend to and left Haoyue Manor, secretly taking people to Madam Xu’s place, to tell her everything in detail."
