"Madam Zhan," Lin's mother knelt before Qiao Wanwan, pleading through tears, "You also have children. Please, for the sake of us both being mothers, understand my suffering and spare my child. I will bear all the consequences myself. I am willing to give my life for my child's..."

"Mrs. Lin, please get up." Qiao Wanwan hurriedly went to help her up. "Let's talk this out, don't do this."

"I beg you, please say yes," Lin's mother pleaded desperately. "It's all my fault. As a mother, I was completely unaware that my child was suffering in this world. The wrong things he did today are all because I failed to raise and educate him. I am guilty. Madam Zhan, I beg you..."

Qiao Wanwan couldn't pull her up, so she could only squat down in front of her. "No mother wants her child to turn out like this. You don't know anything. You are the most innocent person. Get up."

"But I can't just watch my child die!" Lin's mother kowtowed repeatedly to Qiao Wanwan. "I've already lost one child, I can't lose this one too, Madam Zhan, I beg you, I beg you..."

Mr. Lin also knelt down. "Miss Qiao, Lin Mo back then, and Lin Feng now, are both because of my poor parenting. I already owe you all this. As a father, I am heartbroken and helpless, but I really can't just watch our son die. We couldn't stop Lin Mo back then, but today, I sincerely beg you to spare Lin Feng. Let my husband and I take all the blame for him! We came here today not expecting to leave alive, but we hope our child can have a chance to reform..."

Just as Qiao Wanwan was about to speak, she suddenly heard a scream.

"ah--"

Lin Feng seemed to be provoked, and in a moment of despair, he covered his ears and roared, "Enough! Enough!"

Qiao Wanwan looked up at him. Just when everyone's attention was on Lin Feng, she suddenly lifted her skirt, took out a gun from her leg, and pointed it at Lin Feng!

"Bang!"

The bullet struck Lin Feng precisely in the chest!

He looked down at his bleeding chest in disbelief, and the next second, he raised his gun and pointed it at Qiao Wanwan!

"Bang!"

After another gunshot, Qiao Wanwan was not hit. Lin Feng was the one who was shot. He dropped the gun in his hand and looked at He Songling, who had fired at him.

He Songling had unlocked his handcuffs at some point, his cold eyes fixed on Lin Feng. "If you hadn't attacked Xu Lai, I wouldn't have fired this shot at you. But since you were ruthless first, don't blame me for being ruthless later."

Lin Feng collapsed to the ground with a thud!

He Songling immediately rushed forward and kicked the gun next to him far away!

Qiao Wanwan rushed to Xiang Yang and helped him untie himself. "How are you? Are you hurt?"

"Boss, I'm fine."

"Child!" Lin's father and mother cried as they crawled toward Lin Feng and hurriedly helped him up. "Don't be afraid, I'll take you to the hospital right away!"

"No need..." Lin Feng said with his last breath, "You all need to leave now..."

"I won't leave, I'm taking you to the hospital!" Lin's mother pressed her hand against the wound on his chest. "Don't be afraid, Mom will save you, you'll be alright soon, don't be afraid..."

"Run!" Lin Feng pulled a remote control from his pocket. "I've planted bombs all around here. I'm going to take them all down with me. You guys get out of here..."

"Qiao Wanwan, there's a bomb here!" He Songling picked up Xu Lai from the ground and shouted, "Run!"

Qiao Wanwan quickly untied Xiang Yang, and together they rushed outside.

Lin Feng watched them escape, but he never pressed the button.

Finally, the remote control fell to the ground. He forced a bitter smile and said, "Sure enough, once a person has a weakness, they become weak... If it weren't for you guys, I would have killed them long ago... I'm very happy today because you are the only people besides my brother who are willing to love me. Thank you..."

"Please stop, Mom, please stop..." Lin's mother was heartbroken. "We'll go to the hospital right away, we'll make it in time!"

"Dad, Mom..." Lin Feng used his last strength to hold their hands, "If there is an afterlife, our family must be together and live happily, okay?"

Lin's mother hugged him tightly, "Okay, in the next life, Mommy will never lose you again, Mommy promises you..."

A smile spread across Lin Feng's face, and the next second, he slowly closed his eyes.

"Ah..." Lin's mother cried out in heart-wrenching sobs, "Why? God, why are you doing this to me? Why wasn't it me who died...?"

Lin's father held his wife and children, silently shedding tears.

Outside the junkyard, several people ran to a safe place, and Zhan Jingting also arrived with his men to meet them. "Wanwan, are you alright?"

"It's alright." Qiao Wanwan looked at the junkyard in the distance. "There's a bomb inside. Tell our people not to go there easily. Lin Mo's parents are still inside. Let's see how things go first."

"good."

He Songling put Xu Lai on the ground and unlocked her handcuffs and shackles.

Qiao Wanwan immediately went to the car, grabbed a medicine bottle, opened the cap, and held it in front of Xu Lai's nose.

"Cough cough cough..." Xu Lai quickly woke up, "Where am I?"
