"Lin Su! I've already put down the knife! Why did you still shoot!"
Gu Qingyan curled up on the ground in agony, the wounds on his arms and shoulders burning like fire, the pain spreading throughout his body. He clenched his teeth, fine beads of sweat seeping from his forehead, large drops sliding down his cheeks and mingling with the sand.
"Oops," Lin Su pretended to just realize, "Sorry, I was a step too fast."
Xiao Wanqing's gaze was fixed on the knife on the ground, her eyes gleaming with longing and anticipation. However, her bound hands prevented her from reaching the knife, leaving her only able to watch helplessly. A look of helplessness and despair crossed her face, her heart filled with resentment and anger.
Gu Ningning knelt on the ground in terror, her fingers gently touching the wound on her neck. She slowly withdrew her hand, and the sight before her made her heart clench—her palm was covered in bright red blood. Her eyes widened as she watched the bloodstain spread across her palm, as if she could see her own life slipping away. Fear and pain intertwined, her eyes instantly welled up with tears, which streamed down her cheeks. She burst into tears, her voice filled with despair and helplessness.
Wei Qiao glanced at Gu Ningning, then nodded to the bodyguards beside him, signaling them to help Gu Ningning up. The bodyguards quickly stepped forward, lifted Gu Ningning up, and prepared to take her away.
Lin Su witnessed everything, but his gaze didn't linger on Gu Ningning for long. Gu Ningning wasn't originally part of his revenge, so he merely glanced at her before turning away, his eyes fixed on Gu Qingyan and Xiao Wanqing, a cold and cruel light flashing in them. He knew his revenge had only just begun.
After being helped up by the bodyguards, Gu Ningning struggled desperately, trying to break free of her restraints. Her eyes were filled with fear and anger. "What are you doing?! Let me go! You bastards! I never want to be locked up again, I'd rather die!" Her voice was sharp and shrill, filled with despair.
However, Wei Qiao seemed indifferent to her resistance. He said coldly, "Is that so? I didn't know Miss Gu was so principled. Then let her go and let her die." His words were devoid of any emotion, as if he were talking about something insignificant.
Upon hearing Wei Qiao's words, the bodyguards immediately sprang into action. One of them quickly bent down, picked up the knife from the ground, and walked up to Gu Ningning. He raised the knife, pointing it at her.
"Don't come any closer!"
Gu Ningning stared at the knife in front of her, trembling with fear. She clutched her neck and took a few steps back, as if trying to escape this terrifying place. However, bodyguards surrounded her from behind, leaving her nowhere to run.
Wei Qiao watched this scene and knew that Gu Ningning had been overwhelmed by fear. He ordered again, "Alright, take her away." His voice carried an undeniable air of authority.
As expected, Gu Ningning stopped struggling after hearing Wei Qiao's words. She obediently allowed the bodyguards to take her away. Her face was expressionless; she had completely given up resisting.
"Lin Su, you'd better hurry." Wei Qiao glanced at his watch, his tone urgent, and said to Lin Su, "I can ignore Gu Qingyan, but I have to take Xiao Wanqing with me. Just leave her alive, I still need to take her to see President Rong."
Upon hearing this, Lin Su revealed a mocking smile. He glanced at Wei Qiao, then said with a cold laugh, "My relationship with your CEO Rong goes back a long way. But considering you informed me, I will remember this favor."
Seeing this, Gu Qingyan struggled to stand in front of Xiao Wanqing and protect her. However, after losing so much blood, his body was extremely weak, and each struggle brought him excruciating pain. Seeing the blood all over him, Xiao Wanqing trembled with fear and worry. She fearfully hid behind him, clutching his clothes tightly with both hands.
Lin Su sneered and raised her gun again.
With a deafening gunshot, a piercing pain shot through Gu Qingyan's leg. He lost his balance and crashed heavily onto the beach like a puppet with its strings cut. Blood gushed from the wound, staining his trousers and the soft sand beneath his feet, forming a horrifying pool of blood.
"Very good, President Gu is indeed loyal and righteous." Lin Su stood not far away, coldly watching Gu Qingyan struggle in pain, his tone revealing a kind of coldness and cruelty, as if admiring his own masterpiece. "However, if you block my revenge again, next time, it will be your other leg." His words pierced Gu Qingyan's heart like cold steel needles, making him feel a chill to the bone.
Gu Qingyan tried his best to stand up, but his legs wouldn't obey him. He turned his head and shouted with his last bit of strength, "Wanqing, run!" His voice was full of determination and resolve, as if he was willing to give his own life for Xiao Wanqing's safety.
Xiao Wanqing witnessed everything that happened. Her face was ashen, her eyes filled with fear and despair. She trembled, as if she might collapse at any moment. Lin Su's gaze locked onto her, and he slowly raised the gun in his hand, aiming it in her direction.
"Tell me, is she faster, or is my bullet faster?" Lin Su said calmly, his voice revealing a hint of amusement and cruelty. Xiao Wanqing stood there trembling, facing the muzzle of Lin Su's gun, a deep fear in her eyes.
"Don't worry, I won't let you die a quick death. I'll make you suffer terribly." Lin Su smiled. "Weren't you so tough? Weren't you afraid of nothing? What, now that it's your turn, you're scared? Too late!"
After saying that, Lin Su gently pulled the trigger.
Xiao Wanqing's face turned pale instantly, her pupils dilated sharply, and she collapsed to the ground from the excruciating pain. She looked at her abdomen with trembling eyes and saw that her clothes were completely stained red with blood.
"Wanqing!"
Gu Qingyan felt as if he had been struck by a heavy hammer. His eyes instantly reddened, and each breath was accompanied by a sharp, agonizing pain. He watched as blood flowed continuously from Xiao Wanqing's abdomen, the vivid red forming a shocking stain on the beach. His hands clenched into fists, his nails digging deep into his flesh, yet he felt no pain whatsoever.
A cruel smile appeared on Lin Su's face as he watched Xiao Wanqing struggle in agony, as if he were enjoying a spectacular performance. His voice was cold and ruthless, "This shot is a reminder that you killed me without hesitation last time. The next shot is the price you will pay for killing my mother."
Gu Qingyan tried with all his might to stand up, but could only lie helplessly on the beach. His eyes were filled with hatred and anger towards Lin Su, as if he wanted to devour him alive.
Seeing the two of them like this, Lin Su felt a surge of pleasure. He smiled coldly and walked towards Xiao Wanqing.
