Chapter 103 Dad, he's going to kill me!
In the dim moonlight, a very light footstep came, like a dragonfly skimming the water, rippling across the lake of people's hearts.
Su Meng slowed her breathing, glancing out of the corner of her eye at the shadow cast by the person outside the workshop door. She felt nervous, scared, and a little bit excited by the relief.
The scarred man frowned, his hand holding the gun trembled slightly, his breathing quickened, and his finger was about to pull the trigger.
Taking advantage of his turning around, Su Meng pried his arms apart with both hands to dodge.
At the same time, Xie Changsheng rushed out and crashed into the scarred man.
"Bang!"
Two gunshots rang out in quick succession.
Su Meng was the first to fall to the ground.
She glanced at the scarred man leaning to one side, his arm hanging limply, his consciousness fading into darkness. She angrily cursed the heavens in despair: Why, even though she changed the plot, could she still not escape the fate of dying because of the Su family's wealth?
However, what she didn't know was that the scarred man had taken Xie Changsheng hostage and escaped.
After an unknown amount of time, when Su Meng regained consciousness, she heard someone calling in her ear, "Su Meng, Xiao Meng, Xiao Meng, wake up!"
She didn't want to move.
My whole body aches.
It felt like being hit by a heavy rock; my bones and muscles ached.
She wanted to sleep.
I don't want to wake up.
But that person, like an annoying mosquito, kept buzzing persistently in my ear.
She was so frustrated and agitated that she wanted to slap him to death.
But my hands felt like they didn't belong to me; I couldn't lift them up no matter what I did.
She was shocked!
Panic!
He slowly began to remember being shot.
Am I already dead?
She struggled desperately, trying to break free from the shackles of exhaustion and darkness, and suddenly opened her eyes.
My eyes were met with a pair of anxious and panicked eyes.
Her pale, pitiful appearance was reflected in his pupils, making her look so small and helpless.
"Xiaomeng, you're finally awake?"
Huo Zhenhua's weak, frightened, and dull eyes suddenly lit up, as if a five-watt incandescent bulb had suddenly been replaced with a two-hundred-watt one, shining brightly.
"Xiaomeng, don't move! Be careful of the wound on your shoulder."
Before Su Meng could speak, he stared at her with a look of self-reproach and guilt, tears welling up in his eyes, "It's my fault! I didn't find you sooner."
It's also my fault for not shooting that thug sooner.
Xiaomeng, I'm sorry!
Su Meng had never seen him so flustered, self-reproachful, and cautious. Feeling a pang of pity, she said in a hoarse voice, "It's not your fault!"
The scarred man came specifically to ambush her.
Even if it wasn't at the Zhou City shipyard, they would have intercepted and killed her elsewhere.
The wealth of the Su family was too tempting; otherwise, Shen Wuyang wouldn't have spent ten years in the Su family under the name of Su Mianzhi.
Hmph! That bitch Zhong Wanrou actually came to Zhou City to gather information about her whereabouts and sell her information to Scarface, trying to use someone else to kill her?
I'll deal with her once she's discharged from the hospital!
After listening to her heartfelt words, Huo Zhenhua, who was usually extremely calm and never showed his emotions, suddenly turned cold and his muscles tensed up, like a tiger with its back arched and ready to pounce.
very good!
It's Zhong Wanrou again!
Thinking back to the time when her traditional Chinese medicine was swindled, Zhong Wanrou was an accomplice.
She not only coveted the Su family's wealth, but also wanted to steal Su Meng's childhood betrothal, Nie Ronghua, and even plotted to harm Su Meng.
This woman is malicious and must be eliminated!
"Xiaomeng, do you know the thug who hurt you?"
Su Meng sighed heavily, "I know him! He's the assassin kept by the second grandfather."
He was one of the most capable men when they kidnapped Uncle Ah.
"Who? Who hurt you?"
No sooner had Su Meng finished speaking than a roar came from outside the door.
Immediately afterwards, hurried footsteps stopped at the door.
The door was pushed open.
Su Mianzhi, Xie Mian, and A'da filed in, their gazes sweeping over Su Meng like searchlights.
Then everyone focused on the gauze on her shoulder.
"Who do you think hurt you?"
Su Mianzhi's face was ashen, and his voice was like an arrow about to be released from a bow, filled with murderous intent.
Su Meng's eyes darted around, scanning the three of them.
Without warning, she burst into tears.
"That's right, the assassin that Second Grandfather hired, the one with the scar on his face."
Dad, he's going to kill me!
He has a gun!
"Waaah..."
Her voice was hoarse, thick with nasal tones, and she couldn't help but cry despite trying to suppress her sobs.
Like a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl who has been bullied and oppressed, all her strength, forbearance, and vulnerability instantly burst forth the moment she sees her relatives standing up for her.
She cried sadly and suppressedly, her sobs were extremely long and continuous.
It seems that all the grievances and vulnerabilities accumulated from growing up alone over the years burst forth at this moment.
Tears streamed down her pale face.
Her lips trembled but she bit them tightly, her sobs muffled in her throat and chest.
Each sound struck the hearts of the crowd like a thousand-pound hammer.
A dull ache!
Even the toughest, most hardened man couldn't help but feel pity and want to protect that broken yet stubborn girl.
Su Mianzhi's eyes reddened, the chill emanating from his body dissipated, and his back hunched over inch by inch. He touched Su Meng's head guiltily and choked out, "Xiao Meng, Dad's here! Don't cry!"
Clearly, Ah Da also remembered who the scarred man was.
His face was tense as he turned and walked away, a few words seeping out from between his teeth, the surrounding air seeming to freeze: "I'm going to kill him!"
I have both old and new grudges; killing him is the only way to vent my anger!
Those dark and hopeless days, those years of daily humiliation and despair, were almost entirely caused by the scarred man.
He was the one who most directly destroyed him!
Unexpectedly, he remained unrepentant and even dared to extend his evil clutches to Su Meng.
This is intolerable!
Huo Zhenhua strode forward and stopped Ah Da, "Uncle, it's not appropriate for you to step in. I'll go!"
He attempted murder and is a fugitive criminal; I will bring him to justice.
Ah Da raised his hand to push Huo Zhenhua away, his eyes shooting out light like flying bullets, his aura fierce and dangerous, as if he were going to kill gods and Buddhas if they couldn't stand in his way.
Seeing this, Su Meng paused in her crying and said to A Da, sobbing, "Uncle, Commander Huo is right!"
We are law-abiding citizens; there's no need for us to ruin our lives for such a scoundrel.
Xie Mian took a deep breath and whispered, "If the law can't control him, let's give him another push."
After saying that, he looked at Huo Zhenhua and said, "I'll go with you."
He not only wanted to find the scarred man, but also to teach Zhong Wanrou a lesson.
How dare they openly bully the Su family? Do they think the Su family has no one left?
Do you know where Zhong Wanrou is?
During this period of leave, coupled with Su Mianzhi's return, Xie Mian has focused all his attention on his family.
Therefore, due to the lack of information, they had no idea about Zhong Wanrou's whereabouts.
Huo Zhenhua squinted and nodded, then raised his wrist to look at it. "Let's go! To Nie Ronghua's ward."
"Ha! Nie Ronghua? She's got quite an appetite!" Xie Mian sneered. "I'd like to see who she is, that she dares to be so presumptuous."
Zhong Wanrou was truly outrageous.
At this moment, she was kneeling at the feet of Old Madam Nie, sobbing and crying, "Old Madam, I really love Brother Nie."
Even if Brother Nie is in a wheelchair in the future, I am willing to take care of him without any regrets.
Besides, besides…
