“I’s a blessing to them that my sister married into their family. Why does she still have to curry favor with them?”
Ning Zhe was very gratified when he looked at the indignant expression on his son’s face. Nevertheless, he said sternly, “What kind of childish talk is this? You’re no longer young so you should understand the way of the world. You and your sister share the closest bond. In the future, you’ll have to look
out for each other. It’s good that you feel sorry for your sister.”
After that, a smile appeared on Ning Zhe’s face as he said, “After the holidays, you can officially join the board of directors to learn the ropes.”
Ning Zhe deliberately feigned hesitance as though he was not very confident before he said, “Thank you, father.”
Ning Zhe was very satisfied with Ning Dong’s reaction. Then, he continued asking for Ning Dong’s opinion on the boxes of wild ginseng.
‘When Ning Dong finally left the study, he saw a helper bringing in a bowl of Cordyceps sinesis soup, and his eyes glinted coldly.
At the same time, Ning Chun drank the bow! of soup as he watched Ning Chun putting away the boxes of wild ginseng.
Ye Xin stared at the villa across from her with a blank gaze.
Xiao Yu, the helper, glanced at Ye Xin before she finally left.
As soon as the door closed, the corners of Ye Xin’s lips curled up in a cold smile as she gently pulled her hands out of the rope that bound her.
In fact, she had already loosened the rope yesterday. Initially, she planned to launch a sneak attack on Liang Zhou when Liang Zhou was unprepared before escaping. However, Liang Zhou did not draw close to her at all. It seemed like Liang Zhou loathed to even stand close to her. Moreover, she did not
dare to recklessly due to the injuries on her leg. Apart from Liang Zhou, she would also have to contend with the young and strong Xiao Yu. Hence, she endured patiently, waiting for a suitable opportunity to present itself. Now that Xiao Yu had left, her chance had finally arrived.
Ye Xin carefully rose to her feet and gently moved her legs. Since she had not moved her legs for quite a while, they were quite weak. Nonetheless, it was not a problem for her to move.
She supported herself against the wall as she slowly moved until her legs regained more strength.
‘When she finally stopped to rest, she was already near the kitchen.
The kitchen was neat and clean.
After thinking about it for a moment, she slowly entered the kitchen. She picked a long boning knife from the counter, checking the sharp blade.
At this moment, Liang Zhou’s surprised voice rang from Ye Xin’s back.
“What are you doing here?!”
Ye Xin slowly turned around, holding the knife in her hand. She smiled as she said, “I’ve rested enough. Why don’t you come over here?”
Liang Zhou calmed down and said, “Put the knife down.”
Ye Xin disregarded Liang Zhou’s words as she played with the knife in her hand.
“L said, put the knife down!” Liang Zhou said again.
Ye Xin smiled. The smile looked strange and vicious on her wound-riddled face. “What are you going to do if I don’t put it down?”
Liang Zhou rushed over, furious, trying to snatch away the knife.
Ye Xin’s smile remained on her face as she moved her hand and stabbed Liang Zhou’s abdomen.
Liang Zhou’s eyes widened as she looked at Ye Xin. Then, she looked down at her abdomen.
Ye Xin’s face remained expressionless.
“You’re crazy!” Liang Zhou said, still in shock.
Ye Xin laughed and said fiercely, “You didn’t expect this, did you?!”
‘Then, Ye Xin pushed Liang Zhou back and forcefully pulled the knife out.
Blood spurted out immediately.
Liang Zhou clutched her stomach and fell into a pool of blood. The expression of disbelief was still etched on her face as she looked at Ye Xin.
Ye Xin said hatefully, “All of you are so self-righteous! Do you think that I’m at your mercy? I won’t let any of you get what you want! As long as I’m not having a good time, none of you are allowed to have a good time as well! Let’s all go to hell together!”
Then, Ye Xin spat on Liang Zhou who was convulsing on the ground before she dragged her injured leg and walked out with the knife..
