Fang Xiu looked at Zhou Yuni with a cold smile creeping on her face, but she responded to Zhou Yuni and even pointed upstairs, saying, "Alright, you just wait, I’ll bring Haohao down to you right now."
Zhou Yuni was overjoyed upon hearing this and imdiately urged Fang Xiu upstairs, saying impatiently, "Good, good, go quickly."
Fang Xiu nodded at her and then turned to walk upstairs, but as soon as she turned her back, the smile on Fang Xiu’s face completely vanished, replaced by a hint of helplessness mixed with so ferocity, and even an expression of total resignation.
Fang Xiu walked back upstairs and went straight into the kitchen. She glanced around the kitchen and her gaze finally rested on the cleaver on the cutting board.
She squinted at it and took the cleaver in her hand, but rembering that Fang Pingying and Li Yuchun, who had just returned, were in the bedroom changing Haohao’s clothes, and fearing they might co out suddenly and interrupt her plan, she tore her clothing a bit and used the clothing at her side to cover the cleaver and turned to leave.
However, as soon as Fang Xiu walked into the living room, Li Yuchun erged from the bedroom. Seeing that Fang Xiu had returned and had suddenly co out of the kitchen, Li Yuchun was sowhat puzzled but didn’t ask too much, only saying, "Have you gotten rid of Zhou Yuni so quickly?"
Fang Xiu looked at Li Yuchun with a vaguely distracted expression and unfocused eyes, which unnerved Li Yuchun.
Just as Li Yuchun was about to ask Fang Xiu, Fang Xiu suddenly seed to snap back to reality and said softly to Li Yuchun, "Mom, please rember to help elder sister take good care of Haohao."
After saying that, Fang Xiu was about to leave.
Li Yuchun felt that sothing was off with Fang Xiu and quickly grabbed her, asking, "Where are you going?"
Fang Xiu smiled at Li Yuchun, "I’m stepping out for a bit to buy so stuff for Haohao; I’ll be right back."
"Okay," Li Yuchun, finding her words fairly normal, imdiately agreed and let her go.
Li Yuchun turned around, planning to prepare dinner in the kitchen.
But after looking around the kitchen for a while, she felt sothing was amiss. Only after searching did she realize that a cleaver was missing. At first, she didn’t suspect Fang Xiu and just shouted out, "Pingying, where did you put the cleaver?"
"It’s in the kitchen," Fang Pingying responded while coming out of the bedroom, having just changed Haohao’s clothes, and the little guy had fallen asleep.
Li Yuchun searched all over but couldn’t find the cleaver. Suddenly, a thought flashed through her mind about Fang Xiu’s earlier unease, and her face turned pale as she yelled at Fang Pingying, "This is bad, Xiu’er took it."
Then, as she ran outside, she said to Fang Pingying, "Quick, hurry, Xiu’er must have gone to do sothing foolish. She took the cleaver and went downstairs, probably to attack Zhou Yuni."
"Ah?" Fang Pingying was completely unprepared and didn’t react for a mont.
Seeing that Fang Pingying wasn’t following, Li Yuchun turned back, pulled her, and ran outside while briefly explaining, "Hurry, hurry, Fang Xiu must be fed up with Zhou Yuni constantly coming to claim Haohao and is preparing to take Zhou Yuni with her to the grave. We need to hurry downstairs and stop her. No wonder she suddenly told to take care of Haohao with you just now; I didn’t think much of it."
Upon hearing this from Li Yuchun, Fang Pingying’s heart trembled, and she hurried downstairs with Li Yuchun, hoping to stop Fang Xiu from doing sothing foolish.
She knew Fang Xiu’s temperant; actually, she wasn’t an extrely violent person, but if her bottom line was crossed, she could indeed do sothing desperate without a care for her own life.
And for the current Fang Xiu, the thing she valued most was Haohao.
However, they seed to be a step too late; by the ti they got downstairs, Fang Xiu had already made her move.
At this mont, the scene downstairs was chaotic, with both Zhou Yuni and Fang Xiu covered in quite a lot of blood, as Zhou Yuni kept one hand pressed against the other, seeming like one hand was injured.
Nevertheless, Fang Xiu showed no rcy, holding a kitchen knife and relentlessly pursuing Zhou Yuni.
Although there were people surrounding the scene to watch, most of them stood far back, not daring to intervene in a knife fight.
Fang Pingying and Li Yuchun were shocked when they arrived and saw this scene; Li Yuchun’s legs gave out from fear, and she collapsed on the staircase, unable to speak for a long ti.
Even though Fang Pingying was also frightened, she remained sowhat calr; she hurried towards Fang Xiu, shouting, "Xiu’er, stop this, we can talk it out."
Upon seeing Fang Pingying approach, Fang Xiu showed no reaction, still holding the kitchen knife with no intention of sparing Zhou Yuni.
But Zhou Yuni saw Fang Pingying as a savior, imdiately yelling to her, "Perfect, you’ve arrived just in ti, this Fang Xiu suddenly went mad for no reason, threatening to kill with a knife, please hurry and hold her back."
Fang Pingying gave Zhou Yuni a cold look; she didn’t care whether Zhou Yuni lived or died—if murder weren’t illegal, perhaps she would have long since taken care of Zhou Yuni herself.
Her worry was for Fang Xiu; being seen with a knife and with so many witnesses, she would certainly have to face legal consequences.
Fang Pingying tried to pull Fang Xiu away, but Fang Xiu turned around, gave Fang Pingying a gentle smile, and said, "Big sister, you have done so much for , let do sothing for you too. Just take good care of Haohao for if I die or go to prison."
Having said that, Fang Xiu turned back around, the smile vanishing from her face, and with cold eyes looked at Zhou Yuni and said lightly, "Zhou Yuni, I don’t want to live anymore anyway, so before I die, I need to do sothing good for my family. If I can’t live, I won’t let you live either."
Hearing this, Zhou Yuni trembled in terror, screaming loudly, "Oh my God, don’t they say the Police Station’s people are everywhere in the city? Where are the Police Station’s people? Why isn’t anyone stopping this madwoman?"
Fang Xiu seed to have cald down, but upon hearing Zhou Yuni’s yell, her eyes turned blood red, and as she reached out to grab Zhou Yuni, she roared, "Calling a madwoman? I’ll show you mad today, I must kill you!"
Zhou Yuni, pursued by Fang Xiu, fled frantically, her movents agile for her age.
But no matter how nimble she was, Fang Xiu was younger, and her agility was no match for Fang Xiu’s; ultimately, she was caught by Fang Xiu.
Fang Xiu clutched her, eyes bloodshot, lifting the kitchen knife high as if about to bring it down.
Just as Fang Pingying and Li Yuchun panicked to stop Fang Xiu, Zhou Yuni, terrified, collapsed onto the ground, and then proceeded to kneel in front of Fang Xiu, begging her,
"Xiu’er, for the sake of our once mother-in-law and daughter-in-law relationship, don’t chop . If worse cos to worst, I won’t fight with you over Haohao anymore, he can be yours, and we from the Fang Family will stay out of it, I won’t ever compete with you for Haohao again, just don’t kill ."
