Chapter 293: Chapter 293: I Want You Dead Chapter 293: Chapter 293: I Want You Dead Shang Kaijie proudly raised the dagger in his hand, shaking it with a sleazy smile on his face, and malice filled his gaze.
A foot clad in a black high-top boot was brashly resting on the table as he stared at Bai Xiao with a sinister laugh.
His already swollen eyes were now narrowed to a slit, and his bulbous nose flared as he revealed a set of not-so-even teeth. “Dr. Bai, you never expected this day, did you? You thought An Zhiyuan and Jiang Shaoqing could find no matter where I hid?” Pointing at his own nose, Shang Kaijie felt triumphant inside, the thrill of toying with two prestigious figures within their circles was not sothing ordinary people could understand.
It was simply exhilarating!
Seeing An Zhiyuan’s woman right in front of him, watching the woman and child next to her shivering, he felt extrely satisfied, reveling in a sense of bullying the weak.
He felt he was untouchable—what could An Zhiyuan do to him?
“You can’t run! The whole province is now being combed through by Jiang Shaoqing and An Zhiyuan’s n looking for you. You’re nothing but a desperate stray cur—what’s there to be proud of?” Bai Xiao unbuttoned her coat, took off the down jacket, which was cumberso to wear, revealing a high-collared wool sweater underneath.
The light blue color complinted her fair skin, her full chest creating a captivating charm.
Seeing Bai Xiao like this, Shang Kaijie imdiately gripped the dagger tightly, “Dr. Bai, even if I am a stray cur, I can still take soone down with ! If the three of you cushion my fall, I lose nothing! Let’s see if An Zhiyuan loves you enough, shall we?”
Shang Kaijie was not very old, at most eighteen or nineteen, virtually on an equal footing with Bai Xiao. He was in the pri of his youth, but Bai Xiao couldn’t help but scoff at how immature and brash Shang Kaijie was acting at this mont. The Shang Kaijie of the future, who would be cunning and devious, was indeed different—he certainly wouldn’t act like this in ten years’ ti.
He would wait with hidden ambition, enduring hardships for the next opportunity to strike decisively, eliminating his foes in one fell swoop, never acting rashly while still powerless.
“What do you want?”
Bai Xiao pushed Li Haishun aside, but Haishun’s obstinate little body didn’t budge, refusing to move away from protecting her and the aunt. Although the child was only twelve years old, he was truly acting like a man, standing in front of his mother and aunt in the face of such a villain and the gleaming blade of the dagger.
This kind of noble quality was rare to co by. Bai Xiao found comfort in knowing that the family she once had were actually such good people, each living with their most precious qualities, never wavering in their hearts despite life’s differences.
“Xiao San, move aside!” Bai Xiao pressed her fingers on his shoulder, feeling the trembling body of the child under her palm, her heart softening even more.
He was trembling with fear.
“No… I won’t move! Auntie, he’s a bad man.”
“It’s okay, this uncle isn’t here to kill us. If he did, he couldn’t escape either, could he?” Bai Xiao comforted Li Haishun, knowing in her heart that Shang Kaijie had always been ruthless, reportedly fighting viciously since his teens, stabbing others was a common occurrence for him, and he wouldn’t hesitate to kill.
Shang Kaijie smiled silently, looking at Bai Xiao, his mind filling with wicked thoughts. He was driven to desperation today by An Zhiyuan and Jiang Shaoqing’s relentless search. They may not be police, but they had their networks, with traffic police searching at every intersection, making airports and train stations impossible for escape. The mont he showed up, he would be caught by Jiang Shaoqing’s n.
Originally he intended to leave by car, but the weather wasn’t on his side—a heavy snowfall trapped him, leaving no way out. If his car broke down in the wilderness, he’d probably die without knowing how it happened.
Shang Kaijie had to abandon these plans. Staying anywhere was unsafe, having narrowly escaped Jiang Shaoqing’s n a few tis and dodged An Zhiyuan’s twice, he knew he had nowhere to go, and it was only a matter of ti before he was found by the two n.
So he had to take a risk.
Everything had started because of this detestable woman; he wanted her dead. If she died, it would all be over. He couldn’t swallow his pride, and taking revenge was inevitable. As long as this woman lived, he, Shang Kaijie, would never rest.
An Zhiyuan and Jiang Shaoqing could be dissatisfied, but they couldn’t kill him.
Because the Shang Family just stood there, at most they would beat him up, no big deal.
By that ti, any anger in his heart had dissipated, and it was no big deal if they just stopped talking to each other. He would still be the carefree young master of the Shang Family, and he wasn’t worried at all.
Bai Xiao firmly pushed Li Haishun away.
Shang Kaijie, just say what you want to do,”
Bai Xiao took a couple of steps forward and spread his arms open, showing he clearly had no weapons. The gesture was ant to dissolve Shang Kaijie’s wariness, for this man had always been deeply suspicious since childhood.
Shang Kaijie, as expected, raised his dagger towards Bai Xiao, his eyes filled with caution and wariness.
“You should know what I want to do. You’ve cornered ; you deserve to die.” Shang Kaijie didn’t relax for a second as he kept his eyes fixed on the woman before him.
This doctor Bai, he didn’t know his background, why he had such a solid relationship with Jiang Shaoqing and An Zhiyuan. Although they said Bai Xiao was a lifesaver of the Jiang Family and the fiancée of An Zhiyuan, he didn’t believe any of it.
What kind of experts did the elderly master of the Jiang Family not have at his disposal? How could such a green and inexperienced woman save the old master of the Jiang Family?
Who would believe that? He certainly didn’t.
An Zhiyuan would take a liking to her?
Who would believe that?
Considering how high Wei Shufen’s standards were and knowing An Zhiyuan as the most promising son of the new generation of the An Family, would he marry the daughter of an ordinary civilian family?
Shang Kaijie felt emboldened because he understood the rules of official families and was even more aware of the bottom line of these so-called high-born families. In either case, he believed Bai Xiao was nothing more than a plaything for Jiang Shaoqing and An Zhiyuan. Right now she was new and treasured like a pearl, but he was sure she would never enter the door of the An Family in the future.
That’s why he dared to do this.
“You want dead, alright, but my life is very expensive, co and take it!” Bai Xiao said with a carefree smile, irritating Shang Kaijie to the point where his teeth itched.
Shouldn’t this woman be kneeling on the ground, begging for rcy with tears streaming down her face, pleading with him not to kill her?
What kind of woman was this?
Could she be so demon or monster?
Shang Kaijie almost scoffed at himself; it was clear she was a creature without the slightest strength, and if he were to be frightened by her bluffing, that would be the real sha.
Killing a person or two was not sothing he hadn’t done before, and he was confident that Bai Xiao’s death would go unnoticed.
His n were outside, guarding, and killing soone would be done without heaven or earth knowing.
Shang Kaijie tightened his grip on the dagger and took a step forward.
