Chapter 270 - 114: This Move Has Completely Broken the Persona

That’s Duke Ning. If those people betray her, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Su Qianxue finally became afraid. She never imagined that the person Wang Haocheng assured her was reliable would turn out to be so useless.

If she had known things would be exposed so quickly, she would never have taken this path.

"What are you afraid of?"

Seeing her in such a panic, Wang Haocheng remained indifferent and fearless, "Those people don’t know our true identities, how can they betray us?"

Hearing this, Su Qianxue gradually calmed down.

Right, powerful families raising underworld forces all hide their identities. Although those people were her cousin’s, they didn’t know his true identity.

Even if they want to confess, there’s nothing to confess.

"I came here today to tell you that after this incident, Yun Zheng will definitely strengthen his defenses. You must never target that little girl again in the future."

"Also, although our action failed this time, I lost so many people. Even if there’s no merit, there’s still effort. The benefits my cousin promised me not only cannot be reduced but must be adequately compensated. Otherwise..."

Before he could finish, Su Qianxue impatiently interrupted him.

She considered herself unlucky in this matter and accepted it.

"Alright, alright, I agree, is that okay?"

"In addition to the conditions we agreed upon last time, I’ll give you another twenty recipes and twenty household manufacturing manuals as compensation. I’ll ensure they help the Wang Family surpass the Xie Family, is that satisfactory?"

Wang Haocheng made this trip specifically for this line, and now hearing her promise, he finally showed a smile.

"Good, then it’s settled. After all, we are cousins, the stronger the Wang Family and your cousin, the more you’ll benefit."

"So, whenever there’s something good, you must think of your cousin. Only when your cousin is stronger can he be a reliable support for you."

"You know, as long as it’s within your cousin’s power, no matter what you want to do, he’ll do his best to help you."

Thinking about the money-making secrets in Su Qianxue’s hands that he coveted, Wang Haocheng began to paint a rosy picture for her tirelessly.

He hoped to make her happy and coax some more secrets out of her.

Su Qianxue immediately saw through his motives, rolled her eyes internally, and felt somewhat speechless.

Clearly wanting benefits, yet speaking so righteously, truly worthy of being a member of the Wang Family.

After sending Wang Haocheng away, Su Qianxue’s face fell.

[Tsk, it seems that the host’s second step plan has failed, huh.]

The system’s voice suddenly echoed in her mind, and Su Qianxue’s already unpleasant mood became even more oppressive.

"Yes, the plan failed. Aren’t you happy to see me fail?"

System: "..."

[I wouldn’t dare, but I want to remind the host that the heroine absolutely shouldn’t do such things. Your actions towards a baby less than a hundred days old have already collapsed your character setting on their own.]

[If you can’t maintain your character setting, completing tasks will only get harder.]

Su Qianxue: "..."

She argued defiantly.

"The plot has already collapsed so ridiculously, does maintaining character setting still matter?"

"My top priority now is completing the task, using any means necessary, not worrying about character setting."

"If I followed the character setting, it would be even less likely to complete the task."

"Besides, do I even have a character setting left? My character setting collapsed long ago, starting from the Winter Feast."
