Rebirth: The Courtyard Bride Is Cool and Radiant novel Chapter 27

Chapter 27: Chapter 27 didn’t see who made the move and then fell into darkness.

Yunyi emerged from the second courtyard and walked directly to the front courtyard. The layout of the front courtyard was somewhat different from the second and third; it wasn’t partitioned.

She first took everything from two unoccupied rooms, then proceeded to the east and west wing rooms. Based on her life experiences from past incarnations, Yunyi surmised these wing rooms were likely occupied by the Shen Family’s henchmen. Although the inhabitants of the east wing room were ordinary people, those in the west wing room were clearly not.

Yunyi had just finished taking everything from the east wing room when she approached the west wing room. The occupants inside were instantly on alert. "Third Brother, wake up!"

Another person responded groggily, "What’s the matter?"

"Do you hear any sounds outside?"

"What are you on about? In the dead of night, what noise could there be? I’m exhausted from the day; I’m dead tired."

The person rolled over and fell back to sleep, soon snoring loudly.

Yunyi couldn’t help but think, I’ve been so careless. I should have prepared some Sleeping Drug today.

As she was contemplating her next move, she heard movements in the room—someone getting out of bed and tiptoeing towards the door. Yunyi quickly hid behind a potted plant not far from the doorway.

Fearing a conflict might awaken the others in the courtyard, she struck the man on the back of his head with a heavy punch as he came out, before he could notice her. There was no alternative; time was of the essence, and she didn’t have the luxury to tangle with these men. Even if Gu Peiyan’s words were biased, what she’d heard those people say tonight proved the Shen Family deserved to be dealt with.

She swiftly stuck several needles into the man, then entered the room. She pressed a sleep acupoint on the snoring person inside and also stuck several needles into him. Although the furnishings of this wing room couldn’t compare to the main and guest rooms, she didn’t hold back, taking everything and leaving nothing behind.

The person sleeping in the inner room grew alert. "Who’s out there?" a voice called. 𝑓𝑟ℯ𝘦𝓌𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝑐ℴ𝓂

Yunyi wasn’t nervous in the slightest. From the hoarse voice, she knew the person inside must be Shen Zhongyang, the mastermind behind Old Master Chu’s murder.

Perhaps out of overconfidence, the person inside actually opened the door. But having committed many evil deeds, he was still on guard. His wooden firearm was loaded, but he overestimated his own abilities and underestimated Yunyi’s skills.

The instant he stepped out of the inner room, Yunyi kicked the wooden firearm from his hand. Before he could react, she smashed the light bulb with the teacup she held.

Therefore, Shen Zhongyang didn’t get a chance to see who attacked him before everything plunged into darkness.
