The transmigrated wife is crazy and ruthless.

Chapter 48 Rain and Frost, It's an honor to dance with you

Several experts accepted the order and quickly disappeared into the night.

They were agile and quick, and soon arrived at the village where Liu Xu lived.

Liu Xu's home is located in a remote urban area, surrounded by dense forests.

Zhao Wanqing's men have taken Liu Xu's family under control and are ready to take action at any time.

However, these subordinates were no match for the master.

The experts silently infiltrated Liu Xu's home, quickly subdued Zhao Wanqing's men, and rescued Liu Xu's family from the house.

The whole process was clean and efficient, without disturbing any neighbors.

With the help of the guards, Liu Xu finally met her family.

Seeing that her parents and younger brother were safe and sound, Liu Xu burst into tears and threw herself into her mother's arms, sobbing uncontrollably.

"Mother..." Liu Xu sobbed uncontrollably, "I'm so sorry, I was so foolish to be taken advantage of."

The mother gently patted her back and tenderly comforted her, "Child, we know you were forced into this situation. As long as you are safe and sound, we will be content."

Liu Xu's father, who was standing nearby, also said, "It's alright now, everything is over."

Liu Xu wiped away her tears and said, "I will definitely expose Zhao Wanqing's conspiracy and never let her harm anyone again."

Subsequently, accompanied by the officials, Liu Xu confessed in detail to all of Zhao Wanqing's crimes.

After Liu Xu finished explaining, she was terrified. She worried that Zhao Wanqing's family was powerful and influential, and that even though Qiu Ziyue had rescued her, Zhao Wanqing would send people to retaliate against her in the future.

Afterwards, the guards temporarily protected Liu Xu's family, saying they would make further plans after Qiu Ziyue finished her competition.

That evening, during the dance overtime round, the competition continued, and Qi Yushuang was next to perform.

Qi Yushuang, dressed in a gorgeous long dress, walked gracefully onto the stage.

Her eyes were clear as water, full of confidence and elegance.

As the music began, Qi Yushuang danced gracefully to the melody, each movement fluid and beautiful, like a blooming flower swaying in the night breeze.

The audience was captivated by her dance moves, and applause erupted.

Qi Yushuang felt a surge of warmth in her heart as she felt the enthusiastic atmosphere below the stage, and she danced with even more passion.

Just as Qi Yushuang was immersed in the dance, a handsome man stepped out from the crowd and walked straight to the stage. He was Qi Yuxuan.

At this moment, Qiu Ziyue, sitting in the audience, seemed numb; her only thought was to fulfill Tao Ling'er's last wish.

Who Qi Yuxuan dances with is none of her business, and who Qi Yuxuan loves is also none of her business.

Fulfilling Tao Ling'er's last wish is just a formality. Once this formality is over, Qiu Ziyue wants to immediately divorce Qi Yuxuan, and then let Qi Yuxuan go wherever he wants. It would be best to return Qi Yuxuan to Qi Yushuang.

Qiu Ziyue thought to herself.

At this moment, Qi Yuxuan walked to the edge of the stage, smiled slightly, extended his hand to Qi Yushuang, and said, "Yushuang, may I have the honor of dancing with you?"

Qi Yushuang was somewhat surprised, but then she smiled sweetly and nodded.

Qi Yuxuan walked onto the stage, and the two held hands, beginning their duet dance.

To the rhythm of the music, the two moved in perfect harmony, like a pair of lovers born for each other, after all, they were childhood sweethearts and dance partners.

They twirled and leaped on the stage, every movement filled with harmony and beauty, delighting the audience and making them envious of this perfect couple.

Qi Yushuang's skirt fluttered with her dance steps, like petals dancing in the air.

Qi Yuxuan's gaze was gentle yet firm, closely following Qi Yushuang's steps; the two worked together seamlessly.

However, shortly after the dance began, the stage suddenly changed.

Several cracks appeared on the floor, and wisps of smoke billowed from them. Then, several sharp arrows shot out from all directions.

Qi Yushuang and Qi Yuxuan reacted quickly, and with their years of martial arts skills and tacit understanding, they skillfully dodged the arrows.

Qi Yushuang leaped lightly, like a butterfly in flight, while Qi Yuxuan shielded her with his body to ensure her safety.

"Watch your step!" Qi Yuxuan whispered a reminder.

No sooner had he finished speaking than the ground suddenly collapsed, revealing a deep pit.

Qi Yushuang immediately leaped up, with Qi Yuxuan following closely behind. The two spun around in the air and landed steadily on the ground on the other side.

Despite facing numerous obstacles, the two dancers' steps remained completely unaffected.

Their dance was like a flowing painting, breathtakingly beautiful.

Just then, a row of sharp spikes suddenly rose from a corner of the stage, slowly approaching the two of them.

Qi Yushuang and Qi Yuxuan once again demonstrated their wit and tacit understanding.

With a light leap, Qi Yushuang landed on Qi Yuxuan's shoulder, and Qi Yuxuan quickly turned around, carrying her through the spikes.

The spikes drew ever closer, but their dance moves became even more fluid.

Qi Yushuang performed a difficult spin on Qi Yuxuan's shoulder before landing steadily.

Qi Yuxuan pulled her into his arms, and the two continued their dance.

As the music reached its climax, a huge mechanical device suddenly appeared in the center of the stage, from which several iron chains extended and attacked the two people.

Qi Yushuang and Qi Yuxuan exchanged a glance, their eyes filled with sweet warmth and extreme trust.

Qi Yuxuan swung his sword forcefully, severing one of the iron chains.

Qi Yushuang used her light-footed skills to flip and fly through the air, avoiding the rest of the iron chains.

The two worked together flawlessly and successfully evaded all the traps.

Just as the dance reached its climax, Qi Yushuang suddenly felt dizzy, her steps began to falter, and her body gradually lost its balance.

Qi Yuxuan sensed something was wrong and immediately stepped forward to support her, asking with concern, "Yushuang, what's wrong?"

Qi Yushuang's face was pale. She forced a smile and said, "I...I'm fine."

But as soon as she finished speaking, she collapsed into Qi Yuxuan's arms.

Qi Yuxuan was shocked and quickly picked up Qi Yushuang and rushed backstage, while the audience below the stage were buzzing with discussion.

Qiu Ziyue assumed it was due to a trap and didn't pay much attention. She continued to watch the stage, waiting for the chief to arrange her performance, completely ignoring the fact that Liu Xu had just sprinkled poison powder not only on her dress but also on Qi Yushuang's dress.

She was busy dealing with the willow catkins at the time and didn't have time to inform Qi Yushuang, which caused a delay.

The entire venue fell silent; everyone was stunned by this sudden turn of events.

Twilight City's face turned very ugly. He immediately got up and went backstage to check. After all, Qi Yuxuan was known as one of the most handsome men in Yangzhou City, and the two had long been like brothers.

Yin Lihen followed closely behind and quickly ran towards the stage.

Chu Yuqiu opened her eyes, her face full of worry, and followed.

Several medical officers came forward and quickly examined Qi Yushuang.

A moment later, a physician frowned and said, "She's been poisoned, and with a very rare kind of poison."

Qi Yuxuan asked anxiously, "How could this happen? She was perfectly fine before she danced!"

Another medical officer picked up Li Yushuang's skirt and examined it closely, discovering some fine powder on the inside of the hem.

He gently rubbed it between his fingers, smelled it, and said with a grave expression, "This is indeed poison powder. Someone deliberately sprinkled it on her skirt."

A flash of anger crossed Qi Yuxuan's eyes as he clenched his fists. "Who did this? We must find out!"

Several medical officers quickly began emergency treatment to detoxify Qi Yushuang.

After some effort, Li Yushuang gradually regained consciousness, but she was still very weak.

Qi Yuxuan stayed by her side, his eyes filled with worry and heartache.

"Thank you, Brother Xuan," Qi Yushuang said weakly.

Qi Yuxuan held her hand and whispered, "Don't worry, I will protect you. We will definitely find the mastermind behind this."

Qi Yuxuan was somewhat annoyed when he thought about it. He went on stage to protect Qi Yushuang, but he didn't expect that although he had dodged all the traps, he couldn't avoid being poisoned with powder on his dance dress.

"How despicable! They'd resort to such underhanded tactics!" Qi Yuxuan said angrily.

At this moment, his handsome, fair face was instantly covered with a layer of frost, making him look even more stern, even frighteningly cold.

This sudden turn of events cast a shadow over the entire martial arts competition.

Qi Yushuang is still in danger, and this incident has caused a huge uproar.

Everyone is speculating about who exactly poisoned Qi Yushuang.

Qi Yuxuan secretly vowed to uncover the truth and protect his beloved.
