After Shui Anluo had slapped Lin Qianchen, she turned around and returned to Chu Ningyi’s side.

Chu Ningyi stroked her head, his indulgence was showing between the lines.

Lin Qianchen watched them from the side of her eye. Her purple countenance now resembles a corpse but the jealousy in her eyes shows that she still refuses to repent and was still feeling jealous.

Chu Ningyi soothed Shui Anluo’s emotions and murmured into her ear, “Are you still scared?” She had never mentioned her fear of death but Chu Ningyi knew that she had always concealed it in her heart and needed a source of relief.

Lin Qianchen was that source of relief.

However, Lin Qianchen’s confession that she was the one behind all of this had been beyond his expectations. Or perhaps it was also within his expectations.

Shui Anluo shook her head and did not say a word.

Was she still scared?

Perhaps.

She was scared of human nature.

She could not comprehend the kind of jealousy that would drive a doctor, a person who helps the dying and heals the injured, to choose to end a person’s life. Or rather, to cooperate with someone in order to end her life. Furthermore, she had shown no remorse!

Chu Ningyi curled the corners of his lips and placed his right hand into his pocket. However, when he pulled his hand out again, he had a tiny stone wedged between his fingers. He looked at the man who had no way out. “Who gave you the courage to touch her, a woman that I, Chu Ningyi, holds in my hands?”

Chu Ningyi spoke very slowly and his ice-cold aura soon spread throughout the entire visiting room.

The man suddenly looked up as if he had not expected to hear the name ‘Chu Ningyi’.

However, just as he looked up, Chu Ningyi immediately shot the stone from between his fingers.

“Ah...”

The man roared immediately and his agony echoed to the sky. As a result, he released his grip and Lin Qianchen, who was struggling at death’s door, fell to the ground and lay like a dead dog.

The policemen saw their chance and immediately stepped forward to subdue the man whose face was twisted from the pain.

Chu Ningyi pulled Shui Anluo’s head into his shoulder just as she was about to turn around. He then softly said, “We should leave.”

Shui Anluo did not move. As a doctor, she had heard the sound of his bone snapping. That was the man’s shin bone too which supported his entire body weight and was pretty much the most solid bone in the body.

Chu Ningyi’s pebble had broken his leg.

The leg, the part of her body where she had been hit by a stone as well.

His intention to avenge her was clear. However, that man’s objective had been to push her into the landslide and not cripple her leg. Therefore, he had not used so much force to shoot the pebble.

Chu Ningyi was not obliged to do anything else. He had crippled that person’s leg so everything that follows was in the hands of the police. He believed that no one would know about this. He had assisted them in capturing an international criminal. This was a great service and these people should not be so stupid to announce that such a thing has happened.

Chu Ningyi released Shui Anluo’s hand after the man had been subdued. He slowly walked over and stared at the man who was being held down on the table.

“I want to know, how much money was it worth to risk your life for?” Chu Ningyi’s voice was indifferent as if he was merely asking about the weather.

The man seemed to know that he had no chance of escape. This man was that cruel. Before he could escape, he had crippled his leg with a stone. He knew that this man was not someone to be trifled with.

“Thirty million,” the man replied, enduring the pain.

“Thirty million,” Chu Ningyi repeated the number and smirked. He smiled profoundly as he turned around and passed Lin Qianchen who was gasping on the floor. He did not even spare her a look.
