Chapter 168: Chapter 168: Duan Zhu Arrives

Nan Qingqing’s eyes revealed a trace of ruthlessness as she grabbed the hunting rifle.

"Mom, just bear with it for a bit longer, I’ll go take care of Nan Yu."

Sheng Ruomei tried to bear the intense pain, her hand covering her wound, her face twisted ferociously, "Qingqing, you must kill her!"

Nan Qingqing picked up the hunting rifle and kicked the door wide open, striding out.

With her lips clenched, she cast a venomous glance at Nan Yu, aiming the barrel of the gun in her direction.

Her trembling hands betrayed her inner panic.

Nan Qingqing closed her eyes and pulled the trigger.

Bang!

The recoil from the shotgun nearly caused Nan Qingqing to fall backward, almost losing her grip on the weapon.

She opened her eyes in alarm, and before she could take in her surroundings, she felt the cold touch of a gun barrel on top of her head.

Following the barrel, she saw an unscathed Nan Yu standing before her.

Nan Qingqing’s face turned pale in an instant; even in her panic, she didn’t forget a smile meant to curry favor.

"Sister, that was all a misunderstanding. I didn’t fire the gun, it went off by accident. Please, don’t make any rash moves."

Nan Yu’s eyelids lifted slightly as she regarded her with a cold detachment.

"Nan Qingqing, why do you always like to take people for fools?"

A hint of resentment flashed in the depths of Nan Qingqing’s eyes, and suddenly, her peripheral vision caught a streak of aqua-red passing by. An idea struck her.

She immediately knelt on the ground, her expression innocent as she loudly begged for mercy, "Sister, please let me take our mother down the mountain. You’ve shot through her thigh, and if we don’t get her to the hospital soon, she could be in mortal danger."

"Once I get her to the hospital, you can shoot me however you want. Right now, all I ask is for you to let me save our mother."

After speaking, tears glistened on her face as she knelt vulnerably, her body knocking against the ground heavily.

Nan Yu looked at Nan Qingqing’s seemingly innocent doe-eyed demeanor, which made her seem like a villain of the highest order.

Her gaze darkened, "Nan Qingqing, stop with the act in front of me, it’s nauseating."

Suddenly, an angry shout came from behind.

"What are you doing? Don’t touch Qingqing!"

Nan Yu heard the unfamiliar voice and puzzlement crossed her eyes. As she was about to turn around, she saw Nan Qingqing, shaking in the dead of night, yelling.

"Mom, don’t come over here, Nan Yu is crazed, she’s going to kill our mother and me, don’t worry about us, run!"

The word "Mom" jolted Nan Yu’s frame, prompting her to turn around hastily.

Before she could get a clear look at Duan Zhu, an enraged voice filled her ears.

"Qingqing, don’t be scared, I won’t let you get hurt."

"Wu Jiu, restrain Nan Yu for me!"

In that instant, all Nan Yu could see was gold.

By the time she regained her senses, Wu Jiu had already pinned her to the ground. Although his touch was gentle, his strength was immense, he held her down firmly, immobilizing her limbs.

Even her face was obscured by lion’s fur; she could only barely make out Duan Zhu through gaps in the hair, running towards Nan Qingqing with a look of distress.

"Qingqing, are you alright? Did Nan Yu hurt you?"

With her eyes swollen red, Nan Qingqing gently shook her head. "I’m okay, it’s just that our mother..."

She cut herself off, her body trembling like a flower in the wind, gripping Duan Zhu’s hand tightly.

"Mom, please save our mother. That lunatic Nan Yu injured her thigh, and she’s still bleeding. I’m so afraid something might happen."

Hearing this, Duan Zhu glanced at Nan Yu, pressed beneath the lion, disdain filling her eyes.

"To lay such a heavy hand on your own birth mother, truly unfilial and iniquitous."
