The cloth in Shen Xian’s mouth had already been removed. Her voice was weak as she said, “Are you a child of the Lin family? Your parents brought what happened back then on themselves. You want to avenge them, but why don’t you think about it? Didn’t Yi Zheng’s grandmother lose her life for no reason? When will the cycles of vengeance end?”
“If the Yi family hadn’t insisted on snatching my parents’ business back then, my parents wouldn’t have had no choice but to rely on threats to survive. Lu Xiang prided herself on being as close as sisters with my mother, but she secretly instigated her husband to snatch everything from my mother. Shouldn’t they die?” At this moment, Lin Si had already thrown away his usual calmness and indifference and became a little hysterical.
Shen Xian shook her head with tears streaming down her face. “Child, when will the cycles of vengeance end? Why don’t you put down your hatred and live your life properly? It’s useless even if you kidnap me. Your parents won’t be able to live again!”
“Then I’ll let you all go down and accompany them!” Lin Si shouted crazily at the side.
On the other side, Yi Zheng rushed into the building with his men and split into three directions to search for Shi Man and Lu Xiang.
Sean and Yi Zheng walked together and went straight to the top floor.
Upstairs, Shi Man finally cut the rope in her hand and reached under her feet with the blade.
Coincidentally, the man outside suddenly looked in. When he saw the loose rope beside her, he immediately rushed into the room angrily and reached out to grab Shi Man’s hair.
However, he was clearly not Shi Man’s match. Before his hand could touch Shi Man, he felt a chill on the front of his neck. Then, his body fell to the ground uncontrollably with a muffled sound.
Shi Man found a dagger on him. After quickly dealing with the rope on her feet, she took the pistol from his waist.
In the other room, Shen Xian was still persuading Lin Si to withdraw his revenge plans. Lin Si seemed to be annoyed by her persuasion and grabbed the cloth ball at the side again to stuff it into her mouth.
Zhu Wen did not leave the building. He wanted to get to Shi Man as soon as he could, so he casually found an empty room to rest. Suddenly, he heard light footsteps outside and immediately sat up warily.
Yi Zheng also heard the commotion and hurriedly gestured to Sean to lighten his footsteps. He leaned against the wall and slowly approached the closed door in front of him.
Neither side made a sound first. In the next second, the door suddenly opened. Before Yi Zheng could see who the man was, he saw him swing the dagger and pounce on him. In the next second, he pulled the trigger and shot the man in the chest.
The deafening gunshot immediately alerted Lin Si.
Panicking, he subconsciously wanted to poke his head out to check on the commotion outside. However, just as he stretched his neck out, his forehead was suddenly pressed by a cold object.
“Don’t move. You know I won’t be soft-hearted.” Shi Man approached step by step, and Lin Si retreated step by step.
Soon, he was forced to walk back into the empty room. Shen Xian was tied to a chair at the side and kept shaking her head at Shi Man.
Shi Man understood what she meant, but Lin Si was sinister and vicious. She could not let him off easily.
Thinking of this, Shi Man fired two shots at his legs, making him twitch in pain and unable to move. Only then did she put down the pistol.
She didn’t have time to care about Shen Xian’s current emotions. After untying her, she grabbed her wrist and ran out. “Mom, don’t worry. I’ll send you out.” “Manman, are you alright?” Shen Xian nervously pulled her daughter and sized her up. Her heart ached when she saw the dust all over her.
Shi Man couldn’t stand her gentle and doting gaze and hugged her. “Mom, I’m sorry. I was careless and made you suffer. Don’t worry, I’ll definitely protect you well in the future.”
As the two of them were talking, messy footsteps sounded from the long corridor again.
Shi Man subconsciously hid Shen Xian behind her, but the moment she raised her gun defensively, she saw Yi Zheng rushing over to save her. Her heart skipped a beat.
“You’re here.” Shi Man had never felt more at ease than now.
As Yi Zheng ran up to her and hugged her, his eyes were filled with cherishment. “Manman, I haven’t made my proposal yet. I won’t allow any more accidents to happen to you.”
“Propose?” Shi Man pushed him away expressionlessly. “Is this what you wanted to say that day but didn’t have the time to?”
Yi Zheng revealed an innocent and pitiful expression. He pursed his thin lips and begged her in a low voice, “When we go back this time, we’ll get married. Don’t ever leave my side, okay?”
“Do you think it’s appropriate to talk about this on such an occasion?” Shi Man rolled her eyes speechlessly and gestured for Sean to go in and take Lin Si away first. Then, she slowly blushed under Yi Zheng’s still burning gaze. “The proposal has to be formal. Plan it well and I’ll consider it seriously.”
Yi Zheng suddenly smiled. He held Shi Man’s hand tightly, as if he had finally found his heartbeat at this moment. His heart, which had been suspended in anxiety the entire night, finally relaxed.
Shi Man was his world. This time, he would keep a close eye on her and not let anything happen to her..
