Chapter 140 The Stepdaughter of a Wealthy Family (Part Fourteen)



“Brother Yao…” Si Xin’s tears fell drop by drop.

She felt Beitang He's surprised gaze fall on her, and felt even more sorrowful. Even love had been betrayed, and at this moment she could no longer deceive herself.

But she was someone who lived for love; without love, what was left of her? No one in the world would casually hand over their lover to another man; it turned out he truly didn't love her. All those nights of intimacy—was she merely a tool for his gratification? Si Xin swayed, looking at Nangong Yao, then at Beitang He. She couldn't find any love for her in this man's eyes either.

It was just an interest, which was then passed on to a woman who was interested in it.

They didn't care about her feelings because, in their eyes, they were so lowly that they didn't need to have feelings of their own.

Si Xin choked up.

She saw that although Beitang He was being modest, saying "this is someone President Nangong likes," he was looking at her with a chillingly covetous gaze, which made her tremble with fear. She knew that if she went with Beitang He, she would truly only become a woman to be defiled, and perhaps, when Beitang He got tired of her, he would also give her away to someone else.

The thought of such a tragic future almost made Si Xin's heart leap out of her chest. She trembled and shook her head violently, her mind filled with the terrifying image of herself being pinned down by someone else.

At that moment, she saw Beitang get up, seemingly wanting to take her away.

She instinctively reached for a small knife on her belt.

It was given to her by Alice before the accident. She said that the servants of the Nangong family were all bullies who preyed on the weak and might take advantage of her because she was helpless. She told her to take it for self-defense.

The knife wasn't big, but it was enough for her to use.

Panic overwhelmed her, and when another man grabbed her arm, Si Xin screamed and, to Bei Tanghe's astonishment, plunged a knife into his abdomen.

Blood gushed out as she watched Beitang He fall at her feet and saw Nangong Yao walking over in shock.

"What have you done?!" How can the Beitang family cooperate with him now that his woman has stabbed him?!

Nangong Yao's roar was terrifying. Si Xin screamed again, closed her eyes, and waved her knife, only to feel the knife pierce something.

She opened her eyes and saw the man she loved staring at her in disbelief, a small knife piercing his chest. He seemed about to grab her, but she pushed him away and rushed out of the villa.

Behind her came the sounds of Nangong family servants chasing after her, and Si Xin ran away almost frantically.

When Shen Wangshu learned of this turn of events, she clearly saw a faint smile on Nangong Li's elegant face. She immediately knew who had done the wrong thing and leaned closer, asking with a smile, "Did you do it again?"

"It was just a coincidence. The knife was specially made by A-Ye." Dongfang Xuan didn't know that Nangong Yao was cooperating so well, letting Si Xin stab him to death so quickly.

The coincidence of Beitanghe was even more striking.

But whether it's a coincidence or not, it kills two birds with one stone and saves a lot of effort.

They had just received news of the bloodshed at the Nangong family's residence, and before the panicked Nangong Cheng could even go to the hospital to see his son, they received another call.

Both Nangong Yao and Beitang He are dead.

Although the knife wound was not fatal, the knife contained snake venom, and the fact that the Nangong family servants proved that Si Xin carried the knife with her every day further indicated that she had been plotting to kill Nangong Yao for a long time.

The reason is simple: Nangong Yao abused her, leaving her covered in bruises and wounds, so of course she would hate him.

In an instant, even though the Nangong family was a wealthy and prominent clan, it was extremely disgraceful for President Nangong to be stabbed to death for forcing himself on a woman; his reputation was utterly ruined. Unlike a rumor, this was a scandal, and Nangong Chengdu was too embarrassed to go out and see anyone.

Moreover, it wasn't just Nangong Yao who died, but also elite members of the Beitang family. The Beitang family resolutely refused to let Si Xin go, and Si Jiali fell seriously ill, yet she didn't force Nangong Cheng to rescue her daughter. The Beitang family took Si Xin away, and no one knows where they imprisoned her.

Shen Wangshu only knew that when she saw the already deceased Nangong Yao and Beitang He locked in different rooms, she showed a slight surprise.

"Weren't they dead?" The funeral was over, so how could they be alive again?

"Don't underestimate Mr. Number One Assassin," Ah Xuan said with a smile.

Ah Ye is proficient in various assassination methods. Of course, he also knows a little about faking death. That hospital was originally under the Dongfang family, so it was very easy for him to tamper with it.

The boy leaned on Shen Wangshu's shoulder, looked at the two handsome men on the monitor, turned his head, and kissed Shen Wangshu's cheek.

“Nangong Yao likes women. From now on, women will come to get close to him every day. He’s so handsome, he’ll have to charge for it.” The young man’s soft finger pointed at the screen, and he saw all kinds of women rushing towards Nangong Yao in his terrified gaze. His gaze then shifted to another closed and dark room without windows, and he said gently, “You said you would let him taste what it’s like to be imprisoned, and he would never step out of there again.”

He sighed, hugged his beloved girl, and a satisfied smile appeared on his lips.

"Shushu... I'm willing to do anything for you."

This promise is for a lifetime.

When Shen Wangshu grew old and was on her deathbed, her hand was still held in her lover's arms.

"Thanks to you, I have always been very happy," she said to him at the end.

The man, who had also aged, lowered his head and pressed his kiss to her fingers, tears falling drop by drop.
