Du Juan stared at all of this in disbelief; the apocalypse had really come.
"Oh no!" Du Juan woke up suddenly when she saw the blood-red sky outside and ran to her brother's room.
Previously, in order to protest against Ning Hongze, her brother did not throw away the plants in the room.
She had just run to her brother's room when she heard a scream.
"Du Heng!" Du Juan called out as she frantically knocked on the door.
The door was locked, and she couldn't open it.
"Butler, open the door! If anything happens to my brother, can you take responsibility?" Du Juan roared.
“Madam, please be careful with your words. I don’t have the key.” The butler lowered his head, seemingly respectful, but actually dismissive.
The housekeeper originally had a spare key, but Du Heng didn't want someone else to have the spare key to his room. So he asked for the key back.
"Mr. Du already has the spare key; he doesn't want me to control his room key."
Du Heng is wary of him. Doesn't he realize that after so many years as the steward of the Ning family, what good things hasn't he seen? Why would he want anything from the Du family?
In terms of wealth alone, the Du family might not even be as well-off as someone who works as a servant.
He had heard that his wife's younger brother was a gambler.
How much money can someone who is silently gambling save?
"What? Say it again, you said the key isn't in your possession."
The screams inside the room grew louder, and both Mr. and Mrs. Du began to shed tears.
"My son, Dujuan, what should we do? You have to think of a way to save your brother! You called us here, so you have to take responsibility for us now."
"I can send you back immediately," Ning Qinglin's cold voice rang out from behind. "I will save your son, and then your whole family will move out."
"What...what do you mean?"
"You said it literally, didn't you? Because Dujuan invited you to stay at our house, we are responsible for whatever happens to your house. In that case, you should move out."
"I'm your mother-in-law, you brat! What are you saying?" Mrs. Du said, her eyes red. "Aren't you afraid I'll call Dujuan home?"
"Sister-in-law, are you going back?" Ning Hong asked Du Juan.
"If you don't help me rescue Du Heng," Du Juan said through gritted teeth.
"If we help you rescue Du Heng, will you still leave?"
“They are my parents and brothers. If you can treat them well and be nicer to them, I will naturally not want to leave.”
Du Juan said, with a slightly affected tone.
"Oh, I see." Ning Hong nodded. "Brother, I think you might not get a wife."
"How so?"
"I have no intention of treating them kindly, nor do I want to save Du Heng," Ning Hong said calmly. In her past life, her eldest cousin was seriously injured because of Du Heng, and was eventually abandoned by his wife, resulting in his death.
This is why the Bright Base ultimately fell into the hands of others.
Therefore, Du Heng could not be saved.
The screams from inside the room grew louder, interspersed with Du Heng's cries for help.
She seemed to be suffering inhumane torture. "Dad, Mom, Sister, help me! Help me! I don't want to die! Help me!"
"Son, son!" Du's mother frantically pounded on the door of the room.
Du's mother was not kind to Dujuan, but she cherished her only son dearly.
The same was true of Du's father.
But the most intriguing character is Du Juan. Despite her parents' frequent bullying and lack of kindness, she was willing to risk everything for them and her brothers.
"Qinglin, please save my brother."
"Brother, you're not allowed to go." Seeing that Du Juan kept pestering Ning Qinglin, trying to get him to go and rescue people, Ning Hong directly pulled Ning Qinglin back, preventing him from going in.
Du Heng is an ingrate. If it were extremely dangerous inside, he would definitely push his cousin into danger and run away himself.
"Brother, listen to the screams inside. It must be very dangerous in there. I don't want you to be in danger."
"Ning Hongze, how can you be so selfish? My brother is still inside."
"Then go in yourself. If the three of you go in together, you'll definitely be able to save your brother. At worst, you can trade your lives for your brother's."
Upon hearing Ning Hongze's words, Du Juan took a step back.
"Brother, don't do anything foolish. Uncle only has you as his son."
"I?"
He didn't know what to do either.
“Brother, look, I already told them to throw away all the plants, but why is there a plant in Du Heng’s room? If we don’t handle it properly, this plant might wander into someone else’s room, and then that person will be the one who dies.”
Upon hearing this, Ning Qinglin was stunned.
Yes, Hong clearly said it before, so why are there plants in Du Heng's room?
"Qinglin, now is not the time to talk about these things. You should save Du Heng first. Du Heng is my only son."
"Yes, Qinglin, why don't you take a look at these plants first? After all, there's an extra plant in the house, so we need to take care of it, right?"
Du Juan said, biting her lower lip.
Ning Qinglin looked at Du Juan for a while before nodding.
The screams inside the room continued.
Ning Qinglin immediately had a hammer brought over.
The moment the hammer struck, the members of the Du family all took a few steps back in unison.
Ning Qinglin's lips curled into a sarcastic smile.
With another blow of the hammer, the lock fell off immediately.
As soon as the door opened, Du Heng limped out.
He was covered in blood.
Upon seeing Ning Qinglin, his eyes were filled with hatred.
He reached out and pushed Ning Qinglin directly into the doorway.
Once Ning Qinglin is eaten by the plant, the plant should be able to settle down.
"Cousin."
Ning Hong saw through Du Heng's actions perfectly.
Indeed, Du Heng was an ungrateful wretch.
The plant vines seemed to be under human control, swinging over directly.
Ning Hong immediately stepped forward and grabbed the vine in her hand.
"Roar roar roar".
The plant actually made a sound.
Ning Hong's eyes sharpened, and she grabbed the vine and flung it to the side.
The target was naturally Du Heng, who repaid kindness with enmity.
Du Heng was still running forward when he felt something flying towards him. He turned around and was hit squarely by the vine.
