Chapter 880: Chapter 880 Inseparable _1

The woman, seeing his behavior, had her face turn ashen with rage, her hands hidden in her sleeves clutching tightly, as if otherwise, she truly would have slapped Zhou Liang across the face.

"I will beat you to death, you vixen!"

Zhou Liang wasn’t someone she could strike, but hitting that shameless woman who dared to seduce her fiancé was always an option, right? Raising her hand, she unceremoniously aimed a slap at Lin Caisang.

"Ah!"

Madam Zhou, who had come along to send her son to the examination site, screamed in fright upon seeing the woman about to hit Lin Caisang.

She had been plagued by nightmares these past few nights, dreaming of hoodlums surrounding her—all orchestrated by Lin Caisang. Although she still harbored intentions to deal with Lin Caisang, she dared not provoke her.

"Ying’er..."

Zhou Liang too was taken aback by the woman’s action, but it was already too late to intercede.

Just as everyone thought the woman’s slap would undoubtedly land on Lin Caisang’s face, they were shocked to find that Lin Caisang had directly caught the woman’s wrist in midair.

The next moment, Lin Caisang, gripping the woman’s wrist, swung her arm forcefully, flinging the woman away.

"Miss."

The maid by the woman’s side quickly stabilized her, fearful that if her own mistress was hurt, she too would suffer the consequences.

"You... You dare to push me, do you know who I am?" the woman said, steadying herself and glaring in Lin Caisang’s direction with eyes filled with malice.

"The Ninth Miss of the Prefect’s household, I do know your illustrious name quite well."

Lin Caisang curled her lips into a faint smile, looking behind the woman as if searching for someone.

"How is it that today the Ninth Miss has stepped out without that bodyguard by your side? You and he are usually inseparable, aren’t you?"

"You—" the woman was startled by her words, unable to utter another sentence.

How did this woman immediately bring up her bodyguard upon arriving? Could she know something?

Impossible. She’s always been discreet in her affairs; even her father hasn’t been able to find out about her secret relationship with her bodyguard. How could this woman, whom she was meeting for the first time, know?

"What nonsense are you talking about? Whether I bring a bodyguard or not is my business, what does it have to do with you?" she retorted, summoning up her courage to bark at Lin Caisang.

"Unrelated, is it?"

Lin Caisang arched an eyebrow and quickly put on a look of sudden realization.

"Oh, you’re right, Ninth Miss. Whether you bring a bodyguard does not concern me, but... it does concern the Zhou family. Ninth Miss, would you like me to inform the members of the Zhou family how that ’protector’ of yours ensures your safety, hm?"

She slowly approached the woman, leaned in close to her ear, and whispered a warning.

"You!"

This time, the woman was genuinely frightened by Lin Caisang.

"How could you possibly..."

How could she know such a closely guarded secret? Not even her maids were aware, let alone anyone else—only that bodyguard and her!

That bodyguard would never betray her. If the secret were exposed, she would only be dishonored, not life-threatening, but it wouldn’t be the same for the bodyguard; her father would never spare him!

"What about me? Hm?"

Lin Caisang cast a sinister glance at her.

"Marry into the Zhou family like a good girl, manage your husband well, and I can pretend to know nothing. If you truly don’t know what’s good for you, I have countless ways to make you wish you had never been born!"
