n“Anyway, I have you in my hands now. Your black-hearted mother won’t know even if I kill you. I can still use you to threaten her!”

n

nSo what if I kill Qian Yirong? Will An Jiuyue know? I’ll bury the little boy’s body. How will An Jiuyue find him? She’ll have to listen to me obediently and do whatever I want her to do!

n

nShe took a dagger out of her pocket as she thought to herself happily.

n

nIn truth, it was not really a dagger but a very small knife. It probably belonged to one of the physicians, and Wang Xing’er had somehow stolen it.

n

nWhen An Jiuyue found this place, she heard Wang Xing’er’s last sentence. She watched as Wang Xing’er took out a small knife from her pocket.

n

nShe took a deep breath and hid behind a big tree quickly without alerting Wang Xing’er.

n

nRong’er was too close to Wang Xing’er now, and she had a weapon in her hand. She had to hide from Wang Xing’er else she held Rong’er hostage.

n

nShe wanted to catch Wang Xing’er off guard and overpower her instead.

n

nHowever, her plans were too naive. Before she could do anything, Qian Jiyun and Yan Nuo arrived.

n

nQian Jiyun was smart enough to remain silent. However, when Yan Nuo saw Wang Xing’er and Qian Yirong, he called out, “Rong’er!”

n

nQian Jiyun was speechless.

n

nAn Jiuyue was extremely shocked.

n

nShe took a deep breath. If not for the inappropriate timing, she would have rushed over and kicked Yan Nuo to vent her anger.

n

nDid you forget to bring your brain out? Are you trying to notify her by shouting like that?

n

nAs expected, when Wang Xing’er heard the sound, she immediately grabbed Rong’er and positioned him in front of her. Then, she pressed the knife against his neck.

n

n“Don’t… Don’t come over! Don’t come over!”

n

nShe did not expect Yan Nuo to find her so quickly. Qian Jiyun was beside him too.

n

nShe knew she could not defeat either of them. She only wanted to deal with An Jiuyue and did not intend to become enemies with them.

n

n“Go away! Go away! I want to kill An Jiuyue! It has nothing to do with you! Go away! Go away! Otherwise, I’ll kill this little thing!”

n

nShe did not see An Jiuyue as she stayed behind the tree even though Yan Nuo shouted.

n

nAn Jiuyue wanted to rescue Rong’er from Wang Xing’er’s hands safely, and not be like Yan Nuo, who was so silly he could not differentiate between friend and foe.

n

nYan Nuo realized he had done something wrong again and almost slapped himself.

n

nIf he had not said anything, he and his master would have been able to save Rong’er from Wang Xing’er. Now, she held a knife by Rong’er’s neck.

n

nThey were really helpless.

n

n“Let him go, and I’ll let you leave this place safely,” Qian Jiyun said coldly to Wang Xing’er.

n

nHe would have charged forward long ago if the person held hostage before him was not Rong’er, the person An Jiuyue cared about the most.

n

nHe did not dare to attack and had no choice but to take a step back.

n

nHowever, Wang Xing’er sneered, “Leave? How can I leave?”

n

nWhere can I go? I’m already infected. I have nowhere to go. I’ll die no matter what.

n

nIf An Jiuyue didn’t suggest to the villagers to ban outsiders from entering, I could’ve brought my family to live comfortably in my in-laws’ house. I wouldn’t have contracted the disease.
