520: Chapter 520: Ruanruan: Nangong Chang, you have crossed my line 520: Chapter 520: Ruanruan: Nangong Chang, you have crossed my line Qin i’s eyes flickered open, scrutinizing Nangong Chang.
He chuckled, “And who are you?”
Before Nangong Chang could respond, Qin i interjected, “You can’t even compare to my brother-in-law.”
“Your brother-in-law?”
Xiao Wenrou, who was sitting next to Nangong Chang, asked the question.
She turned around and looked at Qin Ruan for the first ti.
It has to be said, Qin Ruan and Qin i looked quite similar.
Qin Ruan had a unique, subdued elegance that often led people to overlook her physical appearance.
anwhile, Qin i’s face, while similar to hers, was markedly more stoic and cold.
He pointed at Qin Ruan, speaking to Xiao Wenrou, “Her husband, the Third Master Huo.”
His tone was notably gentler than when he had been speaking with Nangong Cheng.
When dealing with won, Qin i was generally rather gentlemanly.
Nangong Chang turned to look at Qin Ruan, then studied Qin i’s face.
After a long pause, he asked Qin Ruan, “Is this your brother?”
Qin Ruan bit into a sweet and sour plum, the corners of her mouth curled into a subtle smile.
Her voice cold and indifferent, she retorted, “Are you deaf?”
His brother had just said that her husband is the Third Master Huo, which obviously explains their relationship.
Qin Ruan’s tone and deanor matched Qin i’s previous statent, ‘Are you blind?’
This made Nangong Chang feel indignant, but it also awakened the beast he kept hidden within.
Seriously, she was too unruly.
He just wanted to lock her up and discipline her properly.
Nangong Chang lowered his gaze, a flash of rage surfacing in his eyes.
He picked up a napkin from the table, wiping off the blood from the cat scratch on his face.
“Alright, since we’re family, perhaps Lady Huo would like to tell how to manage the wound on my face?”
Qin Ruan’s gaze moved to his wound, her voice chilling, “Get a doctor at the hospital.
I’m not a doctor, I can’t help you.”
“Shouldn’t you lot give an explanation?”
“An explanation for what?” Qin Ruan’s gaze was clear, her delicate face full of bewildernt.
Nangong Chang chuckled at her innocent act, his gaze icy and his tone frosty: “That cat.”
He pointed at Xueqiu, resting on Qin i’s shoulder.
Qin Ruan laughed, “Master Nangong barges in uninvited and we can’t send him away, shouldn’t you reflect on yourself first?”
Nangong Chang’s expression turned sour.
He ordered his bodyguard in a stern voice, “Seize that cat, I want to watch you strangle it to death!”
“Yes, young master!”
Two bodyguards lunged at Qin i.
Qin i would never let them seize Xueqiu easily.
With Xueqiu still on his shoulder, he ran towards the door.
Just a few steps away from the doorway, soone grabbed him by his collar from behind.
Before Qin i could fight back, Xueqiu was taken from his shoulder.
This ti, the bodyguards caught Xueqiu without any issue.
Surprisingly, Xueqiu didn’t make a sound, allowing them to seize him.
But just as one of the bodyguards reached out towards Xueqiu’s throat, following Nangong Chang’s instruction, there was a sudden change.
Within Xueqiu’s erald green eyes, the vertically-slitted pupils were as cold as a snake’s, giving people goosebumps.
Anyone who looked into those eyes felt a strange allure drawing them in.
The bodyguard t Xueqiu’s gaze, his ferocious expression shifted to one of confusion.
“ow!”
Xueqiu called out once.
The bodyguard turned stiffly and eerily walked towards Nangong Chang who was sitting on the sofa.
The latter furrowed his brows, scolding, “I told you to strangle that cat!”
Still the bodyguard kept moving, his steps strange, practically moving his arms and legs simultaneously.
He stood before Nangong Chang, raising his hands to his throat.
Nangong Chang acted swiftly, delivering a fierce kick.
The bodyguard was knocked flat on the ground.
He didn’t hold back on his kick, so the bodyguard stayed on the ground, unable to get up for quite so ti.
Nangong Chang looked at the other bodyguard who held Xueqiu, “Do it.”
Without a word, the bodyguard raised his hand to choke Xueqiu.
His hand was pressing harder and harder, yet Xueqiu didn’t let out a single sound.
Next, a strange scene unfolded.
Xueqiu’s tail, swaying in the void, suddenly bifurcated, turning from one tail into two fluffy, snow-white tails, as a thick black mist erged around it.
Its icy, upright pupils demonstrated a charming ntal ability as it stared directly at the bodyguard who had attacked it.
“ow——”
As the cry of Xueqiu sounded, the bodyguard slowly let go of his stranglehold.
Xueqiu landed lightly on the ground, light of arrogance and disdain glowing at the corner of its eyes.
The bodyguard who released Xueqiu, just like the one before, quickly charged towards Nangong Chang.
This ti, before his attacker got close, Nangong Chang drew sothing from his waist.
“Bang!”
A deafening noise resounded.
The bodyguard who was midway through his attack, fell to the ground in response.
“Thump!”
His body hit the ground, making a thump sound.
This scene frightened Ling Xiaoxuan, who had been quietly watching all along.
She looked down at the man on the ground, blood slowly oozing from his body.
Soon, the carpet in the room was dyed a bright red color.
Ling Xiaoxuan’s eyes were wide open in shock, her face expressed both amazent and numbness.
Qin Ruan lightly frowned, she didn’t expect things to turn out this way.
The weapon in Nangong Chang’s hand was suddenly pointed at Qin i.
Xueqiu leapt up: “ow!!”
It stood in front of Qin i, its two fluffy white tails swaying rapidly, continuously yowling at Nangong Chang.
Nangong Chang’s finger was already on the trigger.
It would only take a second to end a vivid life.
Qin i was in grave danger!
Seeing Nangong Chang’s finger on the trigger, Qin Ruan stood up and shouted with a stern voice.
“Nangong Chang, you dare!”
As Qin Ruan’s panicking voice resonated, her body was shining with a golden light.
The Golden Whip, transford by the Nether Divine Power, was rapidly swung towards Nangong Chang.
“Bang!”
The gunshot rang out, hitting the wall of the room.
As the second bang echoed, the door of the resting room was opened from the outside.
Lu Han and Lu Yichen stood at the door, looking aghast at the scene inside the room.
The weapon wielded by Nangong Chang was entwined by the Golden Whip in Qin Ruan’s hand.
His hand remained at a forty-five-degree angle.
Qin i stood across from him, his face pale with fright.
Lu Han entered the resting room with his brother, quickly shutting the door behind him.
“What happened?”
No one answered his question.
The next instant, Qin Ruan rushed in front of Nangong Chang, choking him with her bare hands.
“Nangong Chang, you’re courting death!”
“Um um…”
Nangong Chang, being choked, tried to speak but couldn’t articulate a full sentence.
Qin Ruan’s eyes were filled with a strong desire for blood and killing, “I rember once warning you about Third Master’s matter.
Don’t provoke again, if you cross my line, I can send you to Hell at any ti!”
“Madam Huo, let’s calm down and talk things over.
Don’t be impulsive!”
Lu Han stepped beside Qin Ruan and tried to pry her hand off.
Nangong Chang couldn’t afford to have an accident at this mont.
If sothing happened to him, the Nangong Family would inevitably retaliate.
The forces of Capital City would be shaken, while the Four Major Families and the Six Major Aristocratic Families could manage, those at the bottom would be the most affected.
This matter concerned the peace of Capital City and the lives of ordinary people.
The Nangong Family has been controlling many sensitive forces these years, now is not the ti to conflict with them.
Qin Ruan finally loosened her grip around Nangong Chang’s neck by Lu Han’s persuasion.
