Chapter 170: 170 with an overwhelming intent to kill
"You whore, arenât you the most filial? This time, Iâll see just how filial you can be!"
"Iâm giving you one day to get your ass back to Zhonghai!"
"Remember, you have only one day!"
"After that, you will crawl on your knees to the gates of my Ling Family, kowtowing three times for every step you take!"
"Otherwise, Iâll immediately mix your dead parentsâ ashes into the pigpen to feed the pigs..."
"Mark my words!"
Ling Liaoâs venomous voice came through the screen, sending a chill down Qin Lanâs spine. She sat on the bed, her spirit crushed.
She had anticipated that the Ling Family might resort to certain measures to force her into submission, but she never expected their tactics to be so despicable! They had actually desecrated her parentsâ grave...
She trembled with anger.
Her parents were the last spiritual anchor she had in this world. If Ling Liao really did something outrageous to their remains, she would never be able to forgive herself.
After taking a deep breath, she made her decision.
ăInside the villa.ă
Chen Xiao was fast asleep.
But the next moment, his phone rang. Leng Baiyuâs indifferent voice came through. "Qin Lan left only a letter. Sheâs gone back to Zhonghai."
Hearing this, Chen Xiaoâs pupils contracted. "How could she possibly leave without saying goodbye and return to Zhonghai at such a critical moment?"
He knew the Ling Family was searching everywhere for her, crazed with the desire to make her pay with her life. Isnât she just walking to her death by going back now? Could something have happened? It looks like I need to make a trip to Zhonghai.
Chen Xiaoâs eyes turned cold. With the situation so tense, he couldnât rest easy with Qin Lan heading back to Zhonghai alone.
"Itâs your call." Leng Baiyu didnât say much more, hanging up after a few brief words.
Chen Xiao took a deep breath and called Ye Hongyi, asking her to investigate what had happened. Aware of the gravity of the situation, Ye Hongyi didnât joke with him and quickly found out what had happened.
"According to news from Zhonghai, Ling Liao took people to dig up Qin Lanâs parentsâ graves and brought the coffins directly back to the Ling Family. He threatened that if Qin Lan doesnât return, they will immediately toss her parentsâ ashes into a pigpen to feed the pigs."
"They ordered Qin Lan to crawl back to the Ling Family, performing the three kneelings and nine kowtows."
"Also, theyâre demanding that Qin Lan wear mourning clothes for Ling Zhenghao as his fiancĂ©e."
CRACK!
Hearing this, Chen Xiaoâs eyes turned chillingly cold.
He hadnât expected the Ling Familyâs methods to be so vile.
"According to my information, Qin Lan is now under the control of the Ling Family," Ye Hongyi continued. "Thereâs also a video... Itâs already spread all over Zhonghai..."
Ye Hongyi hesitated for a moment but sent the video to Chen Xiao anyway.
In the footage, a blood-covered Qin Lan knelt on the ground, desperately begging them not to desecrate her parentsâ remains. Chen Shuyuâs obese figure appeared in the frame, slapping Qin Lanâs face repeatedly while punching and kicking her.
White mourning ribbons hung from Qin Lanâs body.
"The adulteress Qin Lan, in cahoots with her lover, plotted against her fiancé and deserves to die a thousand deaths!"
Seeing this, murderous intent boiled in Chen Xiaoâs eyes.
"Ling Family! Youâre courting death!"
The actions of the Ling Family had utterly enraged him. Such maliciousness was infuriating.
He immediately bought a plane ticket to Zhonghai. The flight was leaving in two hours.
He rushed to the airport, passed through security, and settled into his first-class seat, closing his eyes to rest.
Suddenly, a startled voice called out, "Chen Xiao, you... why are you here?"
