The Villain's Wife

The Villain’s Wife 300 We Only Strike Once

Zhang Yifei gave an exaggerated grunt as she successfully heaved Qin Hao’s beefy arm from across her waist because she found it to be as romantic as a bear trap. She glared at him, her gaze full of disgust as she climbed out of bed in the stealthiest yet surliest fashion imaginable. She made sure that no one was outside of Qin Hao’s apartment before she made her way to her car, which was parked in the basement of his building.

She drove out of the building and picked up bouquets before heading to the cemetery to lay flowers on the graves of her brother and father.

Today was a special day for Zhang Yifei. It was her father’s death anniversary so she decided to buy some expensive flowers to bring to his grave. Of course, she’d be visiting the graves again later today with Old Man Qin and the other people in the Qin Family. Because of this, she decided to visit ahead of time all by herself so she could spend some time alone at her family’s graves.

"You are especially early today." A deep dark voice echoed the moment she put the carefully arranged flowers next to her father’s picture.

"Why are you here?" she asked, panic evident in her voice. She did not need to turn around to know who was standing behind her. The man’s voice alone was enough to tell her that it was her brother.

"I need more money."

"But I just gave you some money last week!" she hissed, her gaze focused on her father’s stern face and the military uniform he wore in the photo.

"My daughter is sick again. She needs another blood transfusion," he replied simply. This time his voice was tinged with sorrow. It was heartbreaking.

In response, Zhang Yifei let out a sigh. "Alright. I will leave an envelope here. Pick it up after I leave. I don’t have much cash with me right now. I will deliver another set of flowers to father’s grave tomorrow. How is your son?"

"He is still giving me trouble. I don’t know what to do with him anymore. I told him to wait but he seems to be in a hurry and is treating me like a cash cow. I already told him that everything will be better soon, but he doesn’t seem to hear me because his focus is on getting his next hit of drugs," the man exhaled wearily. "Yifei... we need to access the Qin Family’s money as soon as possible. My daughter doesn’t have a lot of time. Did the old man sign the will yet?"

"No. That cunning old man is prolonging our agony, but you really don’t have to worry. I have all the Qin men wrapped around my finger. I control them and I can make them do whatever I want."

"What about Qin Hao? He is another thorn in our side. We need to eliminate him."

"I have been doing my best to get close to his daughter these past few months. I’ve allowed him to think that I am stupid and that I lack foresight. He thinks that I am overestimating my capabilities and just going in blindly. After the old man signs the will, I’ll start poisoning his mind against his daughter and make him abandon her altogether," Zhang Yifei said coldly. Men always underestimate women, and that is the reason why she has succeeded all this time.

"Have you started turning his daughter against her father as well?"

"I have," she nodded. "You don’t have to know about these things. Leave now. I will hide the envelope just before I leave... then you can come back and get it as usual."

"Yifei... I am worried about you. Your letter about Lily was highly disturbing... What if she knows that your brother is still alive and she decides to target me and my family?"

His words instantly made Zhang Yifei fall silent as she continued to stare at her father’s picture. "That Old Man Qin... killed our father. He was the one who was supposed to die, and yet... he destroyed our family instead," she seethed in anger as her breathing quickened, rage apparent in her eyes. "I vowed to make everyone from the Qin Family suffer, and that Lily is no exception. Don’t worry about her. My plans are already in motion. She won’t have the chance to touch even a strand of my family’s hair."

"I trust you," the man said heavily before Zhang Yifei heard his footsteps moving away. She was so engrossed in her thoughts that she didn’t even notice the tears in her eyes. If it were not for the Qin Family then her own family would be complete right now.

She would have been happily living with her mother and father as well as her brother and sister, but because of Old Man Qin’s selfishness she had to suffer, as did her sister and brother.

Zhang Yifei used to think that revenge was not the solution to everything. She used to think that it would only become a never ending loop for everyone involved. However... this changed when she saw how happy Qin Chuan was with Bec years ago.

Everyone in the Qin Family deserved to be miserable. They are sinners! Killers! They don’t deserve any happiness at all. Zhang Yifei swallowed all her frustrations and quickly wiped the tears from her face. She retouched her make-up a little before leaving a white envelope right next to the flowers. She put a gentle smile on her face and left the cemetery with her head held high.

Soon... everything will be over. Soon... she will drop a big bomb on the Qin Family and watch as horror registers on their faces. The only thing that she needs to deal with right now is Lily Qin.

That’s right... the only variable that she was unable to calculate was Lily and her scheming mind. Zhang Yifei narrowed her eyes as she started her car. She fetched a burner phone from her bag and dialed a number. After a few rings, a croaky voice answered.

"What did you find out?" she asked.

"I found out that her friends - close friends - are only two people. I’ve emailed you the file on them. One is a director and the other one is jewelry designer and the heir of GC Jewels. Neither is in in Hong Kong right now, but the director might visit Hong Kong over the next few days." The woman on the phone then asked: "Shall we target her?"

"Don’t be hasty," Zhang Yifei replied. "I will call you back once I finalize my plans."

"Yifei... you don’t understand. That Zhuo Jingren and his people are very difficult to deal with. Do you know how much time it took for me to get information about his wife? He is doing everything to protect his wife as if she’s some fragile Barbie doll."

"No. Just listen to me and don’t be so impatient. We can’t underestimate Lily Qin. Her smile alone is enough to trouble my mind. We need to be thorough and we need to make sure that we succeed. If we strike... we only strike once and we don’t give them an opportunity to retaliate or we are doomed," she clarified. "I have to go now. Let’s talk again soon." She instantly dropped the call and tried to break the phone into two. Once she saw a crack appear, she quickly threw the phone out of her window and drove away.
