Chapter 377 - Chapter 377 Chapter 376 Crisis Moment Fourth Master Arrives

Chapter 377: Chapter 376: Crisis Moment, Fourth Master Arrives Chapter 377: Chapter 376: Crisis Moment, Fourth Master Arrives “Grandma, don’t worry, with me here, they won’t be able to proceed with the demolition!”

Just as Ming Yao’s words fell, suddenly, a loud explosion came from the cemetery.

Old Madam Ming’s pupils shrank, “What’s happening?”

All the heavy machinery had been blocked outside the gate, so how could someone get in?

Ming Yao’s expression darkened, “They might have entered from the back, I’ll go take a look!”

Old Madam Ming held onto Ming Yao, “But Yaoyao, it’s very dangerous in there…”

Ming Yao gripped Old Madam Ming’s hand, “No matter the danger, there are loved ones inside that we need to protect, I can’t just watch as their souls are disturbed!”

Ming Yao let go of the old lady’s hand and rushed toward the cemetery.

A row of security guards stood at the entrance of the cemetery, not allowing Ming Yao to enter.

“Miss, construction is underway inside, you can’t go in!”

Ming Yao’s expression turned cold, “Inside are my mother’s and grandfather’s graves, what right do you have to say you can demolish them just like that?”

“This… According to the superiors, there was advance notification and procedure handling. Other families have complied, only your family has not, the responsibility is not on us!”

“Exactly, we’re just following the rules!”

Ming Yao coldly tugged at the corner of her lips, “I’ll say it again, move aside!”

“Miss, please don’t make this difficult for us, when construction is happening, unrelated persons cannot enter–”

Ming Yao did not want to waste words with these people, she directly lifted her foot and kicked one of them.

The man was kicked flying more than a meter away.

The other security guards were all stunned, and then, regrouping, they all attacked Ming Yao.

Ming Yao rolled up her sleeves, and her fists swung with precision and ferocity at them.

Seeing this, Ming Guoan, despite not being skilled in fighting, also joined the fray.

Zhong Ling, worried that the people might hurt Old Madam Ming, hurriedly helped her into the car.

“Old Madam, stay in the car and don’t get out, I’ll go help!”

Zhong Ling followed at Ming Yao’s side, knowing a girl should learn to protect herself, she had learnt Taekwondo.

But Sister Yao’s skills were too formidable, she didn’t help much, as Sister Yao took care of all the security guards by herself.

Ming Yao ran swiftly towards the cemetery. Her phone fell out, but she did not notice.

Zhong Ling hurried over and picked up the phone.

Inside the cemetery, the heavy machinery was operating, and some graves had already been dug up.

The excavators roared, and one after another, tombstones toppled over.

In the cemetery, there were also dozens of bodyguards dressed in black clothes and trousers. Seeing Ming Yao charging in, they immediately blocked her.

The machinery had already reached Old Master Ming’s grave, but Ming Yao rushed over as fast as she could.

Still, she was a step too late.

Old Master Ming’s tombstone was knocked down, the urn shattered, and the ashes scattered on the ground.

Ming Yao had never felt such rage before, her hands clenched into fists, her eyes bloodshot.

She reached out and grabbed a bodyguard close by, her fingers tightening around his neck, “Make them stop!”

Her voice was icy cold, chilling to the bone.

…

Bluewater Bay.

Gu Siting left work early and returned home.

He took a shower, changed into a crisply ironed white shirt with no crease in sight, black trousers that reached his calves, tidied his hair, then sat on the couch holding Little Snowball, waiting for Ming Yao’s arrival.

But no matter how long he waited, there was no sign of her.

What, had she failed to create the medicine?

Gu Siting lifted his wristwatch to check the time; a shade of gloom and impatience slowly overtook his handsome features.

She wouldn’t have stood him up, would she?

Gu Siting took out his phone, planning to call Ming Yao.

But soon he remembered his number was blocked by her.

He walked to the landline, dialing her number.

Even though nearly three months had passed since their divorce, her number was etched into his mind as if engraved.

The call connected, and after several rings, no one picked up.

Just when Gu Siting thought there was no answer, a woman’s voice came through, “Hello?”

Gu Siting recognized the voice; it was Zhong Ling’s.

“Where is Ming Yao?”

Zhong Ling seemed startled at first but quickly recognized it was Fourth Master Gu’s voice.

“Fourth Master, Sister Yao has run into trouble!”

The large palm holding the cell phone suddenly tightened.

…

At that moment, Ming Yao felt as if her heart was being scorched by fire.

It was both painful and hateful.

The dead are gone; why disturb their spirits?

Even if the cemetery was bought, why not notify them in advance?

If there was any issue, couldn’t they confront her directly?

Ming Yao grabbed the neck of the leading bodyguard, “Tell me, who sent you?”

The bodyguard’s neck was being choked, almost to the point where he could barely breathe.

His face swelled to the color of liver due to lack of oxygen, this woman, though slim and slender, had a surprisingly strong grip.

Just a bit more force, and she could have broken his neck.

“Miss, we’re just following orders; please don’t act rashly. If someone gets killed because of this, it won’t be good for you either!”

The hand that Ming Yao had on the bodyguard’s neck didn’t loosen at all, “Make the person operating the machinery come down!”

“Miss…”

“Don’t make me say it again!”

The Bodyguard Captain had no choice but to call down the operators from their machines.

Soon after, having been notified by Ming Yao, Jing Hang arrived with a group of people.

The two groups faced off against each other, while Ming Yao bent down to carefully scoop Old Master Ming’s ashes back into the broken urn.

She then took off her own light coat to wrap the urn.

Someone watching from the shadows quietly made a phone call to Yin Zhe.

“Brother Yin, that woman Ming Yao is pretty tough. She forced the construction crew to stop, and she’s brought backup!”

Yin Zhe had come to Li City himself, but he hadn’t shown up at the cemetery; instead, he was playing cards with a few Young Masters at a hotel.

Upon receiving the call, he scolded, “The land acquisition paperwork is complete; if she’s causing issues, why don’t the construction teams call for more trucks? If you can’t handle this little issue, then don’t bother hanging around under my watch anymore!”

“Brother Yin, what if someone gets hurt?”

“If they get hurt, it’s on them for not leaving during a legitimate expropriation. Who told them to refuse to leave?”

“Yes, Brother Yin.”

Ming Yao and Jing Hang, along with their people, temporarily stopped the construction.

Ming Yao had contacted the staff at Li City Cemetery Management Center and found that the land had been bought a few days earlier, with all legal procedures in place. Even if she complained, they could do nothing and suggested she resolve the issue privately.

Ming Yao also hurriedly called the police to report the incident.

But after waiting nearly half an hour, no one came.

Ming Yao felt a growing realization in her heart.

Someone clearly wanted to target her, or the Ming Family.

Only someone morally corrupt could do such a vile thing!

Ming Yao narrowed her eyes, guessing at one person in her mind!

Rumble, rumble.

A few more heavy machinery vehicles drove in.

Using a megaphone, the other side announced, “Machinery operating, all non-essential personnel, leave immediately, or bear the consequences!”

Ming Yao stood in front of Old Master Ming and Ming Ying’s tombstones, unmoved, her eyes cold and resolute with no intention of backing down, “If you dare, roll over me!”

Just as the heavy machinery was about to start, the sound of a helicopter’s roar suddenly echoed.

In the sky, more than a dozen helicopters flew in, lined up in formation.
