“Let me see.”
Su Qing took the box and looked at the keyhole. The keyhole of this box was different. Other keyholes looked like keys, but this one was round and shaped like a bell.
Su Qing removed some plasticine and squeezed it into the keyhole to ensure no mistake.
Qin Feng stopped drinking when he saw Su Qing’s move. He stared at it with all his attention but couldn’t understand what Su Qing had stuffed into the keyhole.
Ji Shuisheng didn’t understand either. The thing Su Qing held looked soft, like mud, but different. The mud was black, but the one she was holding was purple. The more she pinched, the softer it felt.
“Will it block the keyhole?”
Ji Shuisheng was a little worried. If it were blocked, duplicating the key would be even more difficult.
“It won’t.”
Su Qing replied calmly with a firm voice. This made Ji Shuisheng’s anxious heart drop to the ground as he focused on Su Qing’s operation.
Xiaoying, who used to like to watch the show, was in a daze. She didn’t know what she was thinking.
Su Qing repeatedly pressed the plasticine to make sure that there was no mistake. Then, she took off the silver hairpin on Xiaoying’s head and inserted the tip into the plasticine. She was careful not to touch the copied key sample. She only picked the plasticine on the top layer and used her skill to pull the plasticine out of the key slowly.
She did it very slowly and carefully. Qin Feng and Ji Shuisheng looked nervous. They wanted to help, but they were afraid they would be wrong.
Finally, Su Qing pulled the clay out of the keyhole. It was round and shaped like a silver bell.
When Ji Shuisheng saw the key mold Su Qing had copied, his eyes lit up excitedly. He looked at Su Qing with admiration. There was nothing that Su Qing could not do.
“With this, we can use it as a key.”
Qin Feng was also very excited. He had always been worried about how to find the key. Now that he had the model of the key, it was only a matter of time before he took out the Commander Tally.
Su Qing was his grandson’s lucky star. With her help, he believed that he would be able to take revenge soon.
Unlike the excitement of the father and son, Su Qing frowned at the pattern on the plasticine. Why did the design on it look so familiar?
“Where can I find a skilled craftsman to make this key?”
Qin Feng started to worry again. There were few people in Mo City and even fewer craftsmen. Only professionals could make such high-end keys.
“Shuisheng, let’s go to Jingshi Dao after eating.”
Su Qing carefully put away the key model. She was very excited, but her face was calm. Before she confirmed it, she wanted to give Ji Shuisheng a surprise.
“Alright.”
Ji Shuisheng did not suspect anything. He thought they were going to the Jingshi Dao to find skilled craftsmen, fie felt that such skilled craftsmen should be found in the prosperous cities in the south. Jingshi Dao might not be able to find such capable people.
However, he did not object. He had a faint suspicion that there might be a surprise in the Jingshi Dao this time.
Now that the key mold was resolved, Qin Feng happily offered a bottle of wine to his grandson.
“Yu’er, accompany Grandpa for a few drinks. We have to celebrate.”
“Alright.”
Ji Shuisheng respectfully agreed and toasted with his grandfather. Su Qing felt that Xiaoying was too quiet today, so she looked over at her and saw that Xiaoying was staring at the dishes on the table in a daze.
The little girl lost weight after not seeing her for a few days. Her big eyes seemed to have become even more significant, and there was a hint of worry in her eyes. She was no longer the carefree little girl. She was so worn that it made one’s heart ache.
Su Qing asked Xiaoying in a low voice,
“Xiaoying, did something happen?”
“Sister Su Qing, I feel like a sinner.”
Hearing Su Qing ask, Xiaoying’s eyes reddened, and tears fell. Her pitiful appearance made Su Qing’s heart ache. She took out a handkerchief and wiped Xiaoying’s tears.
“Why do you say that?”
” What happened to Xiaoying?”
Ji Shuisheng couldn’t drink when he saw his sister’s sad look. His heart ached when he saw his sister cry.
Xiaoying wiped her tears and decided not to bear it alone. These two days, she had tortured her to death.
She got off the bed and went to her room. Su Qing followed her worriedly. Xiaoying took a letter from the cabinet and handed it to Su Qing. Her eyes were filled with sadness and self-blame. Her voice was low, like a child who had done something wrong.
“Big Brother Qiu asked his mother to give this to me.”
Su Qing’s face darkened when she heard Qiu Yongkang’s name. She took the letter and opened it. Her eyes were filled with anger as she gritted her teeth and scolded,
“Dog.”
“Let me see.”
Ji Shuisheng saw something was wrong and took the letter from Su Qing. The letter was written in regular script. Ji Shuisheng knew the handwriting very well. It was written by Qiu Yongkang.
Looking at the contents, Qiu Yongkang said he killed Madam Li because she wanted to destroy his relationship with Xiaoying. As for how she destroyed it, he did not specify. He only said that he killed her because he was angered. However, he did not regret it. For Xiaoying, he could kill everyone in the world.
As for that fake cousin, it was because he had threatened him with the fact that he had killed Madam Li. He was also afraid that the matter would be exposed and he would lose Xiaoying, so he listened to the fake cousin’s arrangements.
Qiu Yongkang even asked Xiaoying to wait for him. He would return and marry her, saying he would rather betray the world than Xiaoying.
Ji Shuisheng saw this letter, and the last bit of friendship he had with Qiu Yongkang was gone. He angrily slammed the letter on the table.
“Yongkang is such a villain.”
He had done something wrong but pushed the responsibility to Xiaoying, causing his sister to be in a dilemma and pain.
“That’s right; he’s a villain.”
Su Qing’s gaze was cold and ruthless. Qiu Yongkang was really a jerk. He was as selfish as Qiu Yue and treated Xiaoying as his private property. He didn’t even care if Xiaoying liked him or not. He ruthlessly killed those who prevented him from being with Xiaoying.
This kind of person was very scary. He was too self-centered. His gentle appearance was to cover up his ambition.
“Catch him. I must catch him personally.”
Ji Shuisheng punched the wall. There was no more brotherhood.
“Sister Su Qing, big brother, I’m the one who harmed Godmother.”
Xiaoying felt incredibly guilty. If it weren’t for her, her godmother wouldn’t have died.
“It has nothing to do with you; Qiu Yongkang is too extreme; you shouldn’t be responsible for his evil deeds.”
Su Qing pulled the sad Xiaoying into her arms. How could the kind little girl bear such a heavy psychological burden?
She had the most profound relationship with her godmother and treated her as her biological mother. Of course, Xiaoying couldn’t take it when she suddenly found out that she had died because of her.
“Xiaoying, this has nothing to do with you. This is all Qiu Yongkang’s doing.”
Ji Shuisheng’s heart ached for his sister, so he joined Su Qing in persuading Xiaoying. Xiaoying listened to her brother and Sister Su Qing’s words, and the guilt in her heart lessened.
After consoling Xiaoying and seeing that she was in a better mood, Su Qing called Ji Shuisheng to follow her to Jingshi Dao. Rejuvenating the Xiao Family Army was the most important thing at the moment. She knew where the key was and could help Ji Shuisheng take over the Xiao Family Army successfully.
Ji Shuisheng didn’t know that Su Qing had the confidence to get the key. He followed Su Qing to Jingshi Dao. He wanted to go to the bustling streets to find skilled craftsmen. After knowing Qiu Yongkang’s wild ambitions, Ji Shuisheng was even more worried about the safety of Mo City.. Su Qing would go home with him first!
