Chapter 308: Chapter 308: Liang Kang Kills

Jhiang Yuan hadn’t finished speaking yet.

Outside, there was a shrieking cry for help, indistinct, but definitely real.

"Is someone yelling for help?"

Jhiang Xingzhi heard it, and surely the others did as well.

"Let’s go and check it out."

It seemed the noise was coming from this floor.

And it was in their row, but it was unclear who it had been who came up just before.

If it turns out to be unrelated to them, they could still pull back.

All three agreed, quickly heading out the door as the wind howled fiercely enough to kill a person.

Upon opening the door, the noise was even clearer.

Jhiang Yuan pointed ahead—it was coming from Liang Kang’s place.

They were back?

Why were they fighting?

Were the couple angry at each other?

She looked at Zhang Kaiyang with displeasure. How could he have missed such crucial information?

But, the priority now was to get to their door.

The cries were too piercing, even the strong wind couldn’t muffle them.

Their movement was impaired, so several people moved by clinging to the wall.

Finally reaching the door, they started knocking, breathless.

The scream inside paused for a moment, then turned to cries for help.

"Slap, slap, slap..."

The door reverberated louder as the person inside seemed increasingly desperate, their cries turning more frightful.

Jhiang Yuan slid over to a nearby window, since for privacy, everyone mostly drew their curtains.

However, Liang Kang’s home had the curtains unopened.

Inside, incredibly, two people were fighting, and knives were involved.

Although she saw only a back, she was sure it wasn’t Xiao Ling.

Further, how intense must the hatred be for a couple to engage like this?

Given that, who was the other person, since Liang Kang was obviously at a disadvantage?

She quickly approached, pushing Zhang Kaiyang aside, and started kicking the door.

The two men, noticing her intent, joined in the effort.

The door, weakened by the wind and not particularly sturdy to begin with, was quickly breached.

Those inside were abruptly exposed to the blowing wind and quickly raised their hands to shield their faces.

But she still saw that the person was Xiao Yun.

Seeing the worsening situation, she promptly went to help.

Since the opponent had a knife, Jhiang Yuan could not be careless.

She hadn’t brought any tools, but now discreetly pulled out a dagger, which was manageable, unlike if it had been a Tang Sword, which would have been harder to justify.

While still figuring out what to do, a chair was thrown, hitting Xiao Yun and causing her to stumble.

Wow, her dad’s aim was pretty good.

Without time to marvel, she rushed over and pressed the dagger against Xiao Yun’s neck.

Ye Mianmian acted swiftly, taking the knife from her.

Then, she thoroughly checked her up and down, ensuring there were no dangerous items before standing up.

The door was kicked open but could still be closed.

"Sister Yuan, Liang Kang is injured."

She turned around just in time to see Xiao Yun attempting to counterattack.

Hastily, she swung her dagger directly towards Xiao Yun’s chest.

"Ah...!"

Xiao Yun screamed, but she wasn’t injured; her clothing was merely slashed.

Liang Kang stood up, blood at the corner of his mouth, his eyes filled with anger.

"I kindly let you come here, and this is how you treat me."

"Hmph, you call that kindness? If so, you wouldn’t have tried to kill me last time.

Still having the nerve to say that, hypocrite!"

Both their eyes filled with hatred.

Jhiang Yuan was completely dumbfounded. Liang Kang knew her, so how could he take her home after confirming her identity?

The Farmer and the Viper. Did he want to be that farmer?

It just didn’t make sense, it was really too irrational.

"Stop talking nonsense. How did you sneak in? Speak up..."

"Hmph, what does it matter to you? I’m telling you, this isn’t Lushan Garden.

Murder is illegal; there are people who will enforce the law."

Xiao Yun sat on the ground, looking smug.

"Murder. Look at you, what have you done to Liang Kang.

He’s a grown man; the chances of him fighting back against a woman like you are pretty high.

So, don’t get cocky. If you die, it would be self-defense on our part."

Sure enough, fear flashed through her eyes.

"You wouldn’t dare..."

"Heh, what’s there to be afraid of? You’ve known me long enough, haven’t you?"

Jhiang Yuan’s mouth twitched, and then she became more ferocious.

"Speak, how did you get here?"

Xiao Yun had no choice but to bow her head.

"A woman brought me here..."

"What’s her name?"

"I don’t know. After I escaped, I ran into four men.

Later, when they decided to come here, they brought me along."

Ye Mianmian went up and kicked her, knocking her down.

"One minute it’s a woman, the next it’s four men; do you take us for three-year-olds?"

No, even three-year-olds aren’t that easy to fool.

"I’m telling the truth. Initially, those guys didn’t want to take me, but then that woman ordered, and they brought me here.

But after that, I never saw them again."

"Then how did you manage to get to the dining hall?"

Jhiang Yuan watched her intently, thinking that since this person was going to die anyway, telling the truth was no different from telling a lie.

"I used to work at a restaurant, so I know a few things..."

According to her, that group simply dumped her at the door.

The rest, they didn’t bother with.

So, Xiao Yun’s arrival followed the same procedure as theirs.

As for following Liang Kang back, she recognized him in the kitchen and thought of seeking revenge.

"The truth is out now, talking or remaining silent makes no difference.

Liang Kang, it’s up to you what to do with her..."

Jhiang Yuan didn’t take charge; everyone was looking at Liang Kang.

He had received basic first aid and was now standing to the side.

"Hmph, I kindly helped you, and you harbored the intent to kill me.

Naturally, I must respond in kind."

As he spoke, he slowly picked up a dagger and approached her.

"No, don’t kill me, don’t kill me, I didn’t mean it, I—ah..."

Liang Kang wasn’t listening to her excuses at all; he just stabbed her outright.

She tried to dodge, but she was cornered against a wall, with no escape.

Thus, he stabbed her repeatedly until she was dead.

"That’s enough, it’s about time..."

Zhang Kaiyang couldn’t help but interject, prompting Liang Kang to finally stand up.

"She was too wicked. We were sent back by the guard.

She said she had nowhere to go and wanted to stay with me, but I disagreed.

Incredibly, she told them we were old acquaintances.

The people, seeing that we were from the same neighborhood, just brought her over without further question.

She kept apologizing incessantly, afraid I’d disagree, admitting her mistake and begging me to save her."

The more Liang Kang talked, the angrier he became. Originally, Xiao Yun arrived late, and the collective dormitory she stayed in was just a flimsy tin-covered hut.

It had already been blown away, which explains why she clung to Liang Kang and wouldn’t let go.
