Transmigrating into a Big Villain in the Book Novel - Chapter 69
Chapter 69: The Evil County Magistrate
Translator: Storm in a Teacup
“He doesn’t look like a good person,” Ke Ruan couldn’t help roasting. The first time he saw the county magistrate, he was disgusted by his figure and his face. It turned out he was evil.
Qi Cheng looked at him coldly. Of course, if it weren’t for this bastard, his Brother Qingye would unconditionally believed him.
Ke Ruan shut up sensibly .
Qi Cheng pointed at an old man nearby, who was followed by a young girl. She was pretty and lovely, a rare beauty.
“A local tyrant of Yuliang County took fancy to his daughter, and he didn’t agree. The tyrant snatched the girl away, so the old man sued him. However, the county magistrate Li Kan was bribed by the tynant, and he didn’t help the old man get his daughter back. Instead, he allowed the tyrant to beat up the old man, who almost died. ”
He pointed to an old couple. Ke Ruan saw that they used to lead a good life, for they looked more graceful than others, and they wore fine clothes.
“They used to owned a manor in Yuliang County. They didn’t cater to those in power, nor did they bribe Li Kan. For that, he made up an excuse and snatched their property. He even thought of convicting them a felony.
……
Qi Cheng mentioned a lot of people, and Ke Ruan wanted to kill him if he continued listening to Qi Cheng. Was this what a magistrate would do?
Abominable!
Lin Qingye pulled a long face. Before they went to the mountain, Ke Ruan asked him to keep an eye on the county magistrate. After they left the mountain, Li Kan would be killed.
“Don’t worry. Mr. Ke will take care of it.” Lin Qingye suddenly got Ke Ruan involved, who looked at Qingye in bewilderment, and then at Qi Cheng.
Most of Ying Cheng’s face was covered by his beard, but his eyes were not, which were filled with mockery, resentment and distain.
Ke Ruan smiled awkwardly. “I will. I will deal with it right after I leave the mountain. I will ask…” He intended to mention his father, but he swallowed the words on the tip of his tongue when he saw Qi Cheng’s eyes. “General Lin has sent people to watch over him. Mr. Qi, don’t worry. General Lin will restore the peace in Yuliang County.”
Ke Ruan praised Lin Qingye for his competence and gave him the credit. Sure enough, a hint of satisfaction came across Qi Cheng’s eyes, even though he hated Ke Ruan.
It was so rare of him!
Ke Ruan was almost moved to tears.
Ke Ruan was beside himself with joy, impervious to the cold face of Si Yuhan.
Ke Ruan remained elated until night. Si Yuhan looked at him coldly.
“Are you happy?”
Ke Ruan said, “Yes, very happy.”
How could he not be happy? He suddenly felt that his life was filled with hope.
In the beginning, he had thought that the most difficult person to deal with was the male lead, but obviously he did not hate him anymore. He had thought Qi Cheng was difficult to deal with as well, but he had given him a glimpse of hope.
It was better than nothing.
Ke Ruan felt that he could work hard to win his favor.
“What are you happy about?” Si Yuhan snorted and looked at Ke Ruan, who was tossing about on the bed without the elegance of a crown prince.
What was he happy about?
He was happy that Lin Qingye protected and helped him?
Si Yuhan tightened the grip on the corner of the table.
“I’m happy about everything.” Ke Ruan lay on the bed and looked up at the shabby ceiling with a broad smile on his face.
Suddenly, the empty place next to him was taken.
