Chapter 415 Sweep Away the Tang Family, Leaving Not a Single Brick or Tile Behind

Nan Wan sat on a bench outside the ICU, staring blankly at the closed door.

The whole world went dark.

Qingning's words kept playing in her mind.

"The baby absorbed my energy, and I can't use it now."

"If he doesn't wake up within 48 hours, he might..."

How could she ask another mother to sacrifice her own child for an outsider?

She herself is also an expectant mother.

Nan Wan lowered her head and gently placed her palm on her lower abdomen.

There is also a little life growing inside.

She thought she only hated Lu Qinglin.

Every time she had her bodyguards teach him a lesson, she felt a sense of satisfaction.

She was never worried that he would get hurt; with his skills, those people couldn't possibly harm him.

I wouldn't worry about his life.

Except for last time.

The knife he took for her, his blood staining her entire back, warm and red, terrified her to the point of losing her soul.

But this time, he was once again on the verge of death because of her, causing her immense heartache.

That day, when she walked into the operating room, intending to abort the child.

His mind was filled with images of her entanglement with him.

His forceful seizure and plunder.

His resolute act of shielding the knife with his own body.

And there was the focused way he knelt down beside her feet, tying her high heels.

It was at that moment that she realized she was crying.

It turned out that she couldn't bear to part with the newborn child.

It turns out, she already had feelings for him.

That's why she kept the child.

A short while later, Yang Yi came over.

His left arm was in a sling across his chest, and blood seeped through the white gauze, indicating he had been shot in the arm.

Nan Wan snapped out of her reverie, quickly wiped away her tears, and turned to look at him.

Her voice was a little hoarse.

Are you alright?

Yang Yi shook his head.

"It's a minor injury, nothing serious."

He began his report.

"Lei Bao's Beiyu Island has been completely wiped out."

"He had ten tons of gold hidden in his vault."

"Furthermore, several of his hideouts in Country A were also raided by President Fu's team."

"Lei Bao is finished. The Southern Gang is at peace."

Nan Wan nodded, telling him to go back and rest first.

Just then, Fang Zheng walked over quickly, carrying a small cake box.

"Miss Nan."

He handed over the box; it was a chestnut cake from the south of the city.

"Please eat something first. Don't worry too much, Mr. Lu, you will definitely wake up."

Nan Wan looked at the cake box in his hand.

How did you know I like to eat this?

Fang Zheng said in a low voice.

"Mr. Lu wrote down everything he knew about your preferences and handed it over to me."

He said that when you are unhappy, he will buy you a chestnut cake.

"He also said that if anything were to happen to him, you would take over as president of Tiannan Group."

"Miss Nan, you haven't eaten all day, please have something to eat first."

Nan Wan took the cake box, her fingertips trembling slightly.

She slowly opened it, scooped out a piece with a small fork, and put it in her mouth.

The familiar sweetness melted on my tongue, but my heart felt bitter and astringent, a heavy weight pressing down on me.

Fang Zheng continued.

"Actually, Mr. Lu has always kept you in his heart all these years."

"When he misses you, he goes back to that little building and plants roses."

"The entire wall you see, covered with roses, was planted by him personally."

"Eight years have passed, and roses have covered the entire building."

"It's a pity... it was burned down."

Nan Wan felt a violent jolt in her chest.

He planted it for eight years?

Did he plant each one himself?

If he hadn't been caught in Qingcheng by accident, would he have continued planting for another nine or ten years?

But he was such a proud person that he would never take the initiative to seek her out, and would only bury this longing deep in his heart.

Nan Wan's eyes instantly reddened.

Just then, Fang Zheng's phone rang.

He walked to the side to answer the call, listened for a couple of sentences, and then suppressed his anger and cursed.

"Keep a close eye on that bastard!"

He hung up the phone after saying that.

Nanwan asked.

"What happened?"

Fang Zheng's face was grim.

"Lu Ying, President Lu's cousin."

"I don't know where I heard the rumor, but I know that President Lu is about to die."

"That son of a bitch is having a party and celebrating wildly!"

"He even spread rumors everywhere, saying that Tiannan Group is his for the taking. Because President Lu is unmarried and has no children, all his assets will be taken over by the Lu family."

Nanwan didn't say anything.

She simply raised her eyes coldly and gave Yang Yi a look.

Yang Yi immediately understood, and without saying a word, turned around and walked out.

In Rongcheng, at the top-tier Royal Dynasty Club, Lu Ying was drinking and having fun with a dozen or so cronies, with women on his left and right, thoroughly enjoying himself.

Shortly after, the door to the private room was kicked open.

A dozen or so men in black rushed in and, without saying a word, grabbed Lu Ying and started beating him mercilessly.

"Damn it! You dare hit me? Do you know who I am?!"

"In Rongcheng, who dares to touch the Lu family!"

Lu Ying's curses quickly turned into screams of agony. The man in black was ruthless and vicious, punching him repeatedly until his face was covered in blood and his wrists were broken.

The beautiful women in the room were so frightened that they huddled in a corner, screaming incessantly.

At the hotel.

Qingning was coaxing Nanwan to eat, and the table was full of exquisite dishes.

"Sister Nan, don't worry too much. Brother Lu has been through so many close calls with death, he'll definitely be alright this time too."

Nan Wan looked at her and nodded without much emotion.

Qingning gently comforted her a few more times, her gaze falling on her flat stomach.

"You also need to take good care of yourself and eat on time, otherwise the baby will be hungry."

Yes, the moment Qingning hugged her at the hospital, she sensed that the little life was still there.

Nan Wan paused for a moment, then picked up a bowl of porridge and began to drink it in small sips.

She was truly hungry, and at this moment, she couldn't afford to collapse.

She did not ask Qingning to save Lu Qinglin again.

Because the child in Qingning's belly is half of Huo Shenyuan's life, and equally precious.

...

The next day, news spread like wildfire that the young master of the Lu family had been ambushed and seriously injured at the club.

Following the clues, the Lu family quickly traced the matter back to the Tang family.

Outside the Tang family's old mansion, five luxury cars were lined up in a row, with twenty bodyguards looking menacing, and even two excavators following behind.

The old lady of the Lu family and Madam Lu, Lu Jiren, stood at the front with an imposing air.

Tang Ling followed Old Chen out and immediately saw those two disgusting faces.

Old Mrs. Lu lifted her eyelids and spoke first.

"Who do we have here? It's the Tang family's stray dogs back. What, they couldn't make it outside, so now they want to come back and mess with our Lu family? They even dare to try and take our land, they really don't know what's good for them!"

Tang Ling was so angry that she trembled and only said one sentence coldly.

"You are not welcome here. Close the door."

Just as the Tang family bodyguards were about to close the door, the Lu family bodyguards stepped forward and stopped them.

Madam Lu immediately launched into a tirade of curses.

"You bunch of bastards are the ones who injured my son? Fine! Today, I'm going to tear your Tang family apart!"

She gave the order, and the excavators behind her immediately roared over.

Tang Ling shouted sternly, "Let's see if your heads are harder, or our guns are harder!"

The six bodyguards behind her simultaneously drew their guns, the dark muzzles pointed at the person in front of them.

The twenty bodyguards from the Lu family were so frightened that they all took a step back.

Madam Lu merely gave a dismissive smirk.

"Using guns in Rongcheng? That's illegal. Who knows if they just brought out a few toy guns to scare people?"

"Charge! We'll wipe out the Tang family today! After all, the land deed to this place is in the Lu family's name!"

Upon hearing this, Old Madam Lu straightened her back again. "You dare send people to beat my precious grandson? Today I will wipe out your Tang family, leaving not a single tile behind!"

"If any of them dare to move, shoot them." Tang Ling's eyes were cold and fearless. She even wished she could do it herself. She still clearly remembered how those two shrewish women bullied Wanwan back then.

The tension was palpable; the air seemed to freeze.

Tang Ling added, "Back then, it's time to settle the debt your Lu family owed our Tang family."

Grandma Lu laughed, "Back then, it was Tang Shi who betrayed Qinglin, which led to the Tang family's ruin. Since you dare to touch my precious grandson, then I won't be polite."

"Let's do it."

Just then, two black luxury cars broke the tense atmosphere and came to a steady stop next to the confronting crowd.

The car door opened.

Nan Wan got off the bus.

She wore a simple black dress, which made her already pale face look even paler. There were faint dark circles under her eyes, but her eyes were frighteningly cold, carrying an undeniable pressure.

Behind her was a man, Yang Yi, whose left arm was in a sling. Even though he was injured, his fierce aura that kept strangers at bay had not diminished in the slightest.

When Nan Wan spoke, every word she uttered carried a sense of oppression.

"I'd like to see who dares to make a move."

Upon recognizing the person who had arrived, Madam Lu sneered, "Tang Shi, you shameless woman, how dare you come back?"

"Luckily, Qinglin didn't marry someone like you back then! Now you've come back, are you trying to steal Qinglin's property from us? Do you even deserve it?"

Yang Yi stepped forward, not giving her a chance to continue shouting, and slapped Madam Lu hard across the face.

With a crisp, loud "snap," it rang out.

"Dare to disrespect Miss Nan? Believe me or not, I'll sew your mouth shut."

Mrs. Lu was stunned by the slap. A red and swollen handprint quickly appeared on her face. She covered her face and screamed in anger.

"You dare hit me! You've gone too far! Guards, kill them!"
