Chapter 1020: Xiao Cheng
Editor: Henyee Translations
Ye Qingzi followed behind Qin Shuzhen. Ever since Tong Wan had expressed her displeasure toward Ye Qingzi, she had avoided visiting the Xiao family or appearing before Tong Wan.
Now, Tong Wan acted as if Ye Qingzi didn’t exist. Her attitude toward Qin Shuzhen was equally cold and indifferent. After a brief greeting, she smiled at Ruan Xueling and said, “Xueling, let’s go check out the autumn and winter collection over there.”
“Sure, those clothes look good,” Ruan Xueling replied, also ignoring Qin Shuzhen, as she wasn’t familiar with her.
As Tong Wan and Ruan Xueling left, chatting and laughing, the smile on Qin Shuzhen’s face faded.
Ye Qingzi, feeling slighted, muttered, “Gu Jin’s mother really knows how to win Auntie Tong Wan over. Mom, didn’t you say you were Auntie Tong Wan’s best friend?”
...
Qin Shuzhen shot her a stern look. “This is all because of you.”
Ye Qingzi lowered her head in silence.
Qin Shuzhen glanced at Tong Wan and sighed, “Ah-Wan has changed since she woke up.”
anwhile, as Tong Wan and Ruan Xueling picked out more clothes for her, Gu Yang could only smile helplessly. Unable to persuade them otherwise, she decided to take the initiative and pulled Gu Jin along to pick clothes for Tong Wan and Ruan Xueling.
At one point, Gu Yang headed to the mall’s washroom. When she erged, she noticed two tall and handso n entering the n’s washroom.
She noticed the two n not because they were handso, but because despite their plain clothes, they exuded an unmistakable, unyielding deanor—like that of soldiers.
Moreover, one of them looked familiar. Could he be that Brother Xiao she had heard about but never t?
She had only seen photos of her two cousins and never t them in person.
Gu Yang also noticed that the man who resembled her cousin, Xiao Cheng, glanced in her direction.
As she pondered this, a fierce voice suddenly echoed from the n’s washroom.
“Don’t co any closer! If you do, I’ll kill him!”
“Get out! All of you, get out, or I’ll take action!”
A small group of people rushed out of the n’s room in a panic.
Gu Yang overheard words like “gun” and “white powder” from them and quickly pieced together what was happening.
Then, the two tall n also retreated from the washroom, each holding a pistol, moving cautiously.
At the sa ti, they warned the people inside, “Don’t move!”
Seeing Gu Yang still standing by the sink, Xiao Cheng shot her a fierce glare. “Can’t you see it’s dangerous? Get out of here!”
Ye Hanchen, surprised by his comrade’s uncharacteristic behavior, glanced at Gu Yang.
“Oh…”
Gu Yang blinked in surprise and stepped back.
Had she just been scolded by this brother?
As she retreated, she kept an eye on Xiao Cheng’s situation.
The bandits were also retreating. There were two of them. One was a burly man with a faint tattoo peeking out from under his sleeve, exuding a nacing aura.
He was holding a gun to the head of a six- or seven-year-old boy, who was trembling with fear and sobbing uncontrollably.
The accomplice was a middle-aged man with a thin face, who appeared ntally unstable and more frightened than anything else.
He had no weapon or hostage, effectively hiding behind the more dangerous criminal.
Outside, a woman’s desperate cries could be heard. “My son! Save my son!”
It was likely the boy’s mother, anxiously waiting for him to co out of the restroom.
