In the past, when Hong Jiao didn't have much internal energy, this killing move was already terrifying. Now that her abilities have greatly improved, let alone facing an assassin like An Ran Wu Yang, even Qin Yi Heng wouldn't be able to let his guard down when facing her.
"Heh—heh—" An Wu could only make breathy sounds. He actually wanted to shout, but he couldn't.
Even the thugs, who were used to seeing death and injury, turned their heads and secretly rejoiced that it wasn't them who were dying.
"Peace and safety—"
An Ran had been trying to help when she sensed things were going badly, but she was too late.
An Wu's brain matter spilled out, almost causing him to slip and fall straight in...
Within minutes, his two younger brothers, born of the same mother, died tragically before his eyes. An Ran went mad, and his madness meant that he fought without any strategy, only charging around recklessly.
Hongjiao didn't even make another move, she just dodged left and right, until...
"Pfft—"
An Ran accidentally bumped into a clothes rack. The hook was sharp and pierced his body, leaving him hanging there like a piece of clothing...
They watched helplessly as Hong Jiao killed three people single-handedly, the blood flowing like a river, the horrific scene indescribable. Everyone was filled with fear, looking at Hong Jiao as if she were a ghost.
Humans are naturally afraid of ghosts.
Now, let's not talk about Qin Yiheng or whether we can beat him. At the very least, everyone is still wary of Hong Jiao's fighting power. If we can't get past Hong Jiao, how can we deal with Qin Yiheng?
So even though Chu Wei was delirious from the stimulation and kept shouting, few people dared to listen to him anymore. Even those who wanted to listen were afraid of dying, dying a terrible death, so they all waited for someone else to step forward. And that was what everyone thought.
Finally, without prior agreement, they all made way for Qin Yiheng to leave.
From beginning to end, no one was able to touch a single hair on Chu Ruoxue's head.
Qin Yiheng had no blood on him at all. Hong Jiao had killed him, but she wasn't afraid of killing or getting blood on her hands. As long as Qin Yiheng was alright, that was all that mattered.
"Chu Wei, enough people have died today. I'm giving you a few days to sort things out with the Han family, and then apologize in front of everyone in the Chu family. If you can't handle it, then I'll take care of it for you, and then..."
As she reached the door, Chu Ruoxue turned back to Chu Wei and warned him. She didn't finish her sentence, but everyone understood what she meant.
Chu Wei was pale as death, as if he had no idea what Chu Ruoxue had said.
As soon as they left, Chu Wei's eyes rolled back and he fell straight backward.
Chu Ruolin was already terrified and didn't even realize that Chu Wei was about to fall. It was only because someone nearby helped him up.
"The master doesn't seem to be doing well, quickly call an ambulance."
"Young master, come and take a look quickly!"
"Get rid of all this stuff right away..."
In an instant, Chu Wei's villa was in a flurry of activity.
As Chu Ruoxue walked out of Chu Wei's villa, she glanced at Hong Jiao several times—she recognized Hong Jiao.
"Four years ago, did you visit the Chu family's main residence?" Chu Ruoxue asked Hong Jiao.
"Does Miss still remember me?" Hong Jiao and Qin Yiheng are somewhat similar in personality; neither of them talks much, but what they say is always the key point.
"Hmm." Chu Ruoxue nodded, and couldn't help but praise, "You're much better than you were four years ago."
“Being reborn makes everything different.” Hongjiao’s expression was strange, a mixture of bitterness and sweetness, and a sense of contentment.
Speaking of this, Chu Ruoxue suddenly remembered the strange behavior of Chu Wei and the others when they saw Hong Jiao.
Rebirth? Did Hong Jiao really die once? Are there really people in the world who are reborn?
Aren't those just plots from novels and TV dramas?
Seeing Chu Ruoxue's confusion, Qin Yiheng explained, "Once before, I had a fight with Hongjiao... Chu Wei appeared and slit her throat. I took her back to heal her..."
This experience, comparable to a novel or TV drama plot, left Chu Ruoxue speechless; it truly was a miraculous comeback!
Qin Yiheng is too amazing! I thought he was already a miracle doctor when I saw him treating my grandfather and other patients. But now it seems that "miracle doctor" is not even a fraction of Qin Yiheng's skill.
How can the dead be brought back to life and bones be restored? Where in the world is there such a thing?
Hongjiao added from the side, "So for me, it's like being reborn."
Chu Ruoxue agreed, but remained silent for a long time.
Since she didn't speak, Qin Yiheng and Hong Jiao next to her were even more silent.
After a while, Chu Ruoxue finally spoke, "Hongjiao wasn't employed by the main Chu family before because of her lack of ability. But now you've changed so much. Are you still interested in joining the Chu family again?"
Hongjiao glanced at Qin Yiheng.
“As I said before, we’ve settled all debts and are now friends. I won’t interfere with where you want to go or what you want to do.”
Qin Yiheng knew why Hong Jiao was looking at him, but he had said before that they should just be friends, and now he was making that statement again.
Even so, Hongjiao still said to Chu Ruoxue, "I'm sorry, Miss Chu, I still want to stay by my benefactor's side."
In fact, how could Hongjiao really regard Qin Yiheng as just an ordinary friend?
She had no way to repay the life-saving grace, and Qin Yiheng had given her a lot of guidance. She was able to make such great progress entirely thanks to Qin Yiheng.
Otherwise, why would they keep calling him their benefactor?
"I understand, I understand. There's nothing to apologize for."
This was actually an outcome Chu Ruoxue had considered. If Hongjiao hadn't said that, and instead followed her back to the Chu family's main residence, she certainly wouldn't have had any particular opinion of Hongjiao, but ultimately it wouldn't have been a perfect result.
The group walked for a while longer. Judging from Qin Yiheng and Hong Jiao's intentions, they wanted to take Chu Ruoxue home before leaving.
"I'm just really impressed, Yiheng. What other skills do you have that I don't know about?" Chu Ruoxue tried to ease the tension by changing the subject.
"There's nothing surprising about it. Since I've chosen the Chu family, I will naturally do my best." Qin Yiheng was neither modest nor exaggerated.
At first, when Chu Ruoxue saw her grandfather's respect for Qin Yiheng, saying that he came from the Great Snow Mountain and how powerful he was, she couldn't quite imagine that she, in her position and who thought she had seen everything, could still surprise her with Qin Yiheng. This man was truly charming.
Unfortunately, it wasn't meant for her.
However, Chu Ruoxue had no intention of competing with Jiang Yan. Everyone has their own destiny. Qin Yiheng went down the mountain for two purposes, one of which was Jiang Yan, but he never went to the Chu family.
What about her?
