Chapter 164: Both Parents Are Murderers
"Snap"
A clean and sharp slap was heard in the convenience store. Jiang Yuan used all her strength to deliver this slap. The recoil caused her body to shake slightly, and a clear vibration came from the palm of her hand.
"My slot"
"Don't touch her!"
Qi Zhenlei's arm, raised high, suddenly froze in mid-air.
Jiang Yuan's pupils trembled. In her sight, Yang Xue's face was pale, and her bloodshot eyes were glaring at Qi Zhenlei. Her trembling hands were tightly grasping a sharp knife. It was a brand new Swiss knife that reflected a clear light. The knife looked out of place in her mother's wrinkled hands.
Jiang Yuan realized in an instant that it was not a knife used at home to cut fruits or vegetables, but a knife that her mother carried with her for self-defense at all times.
Now the blade of the knife was against the side of Qi Zhenlei's neck, and the blade, flashing with a cold light, was rubbing against the artery. If he applied a little force with the handle of the knife, the artery would be broken with a "sizzle", and the bright red blood flowing steadily inside would fall apart in an instant.
Jiang Yuan saw her mother's hands shaking continuously, as if all her strength was put on those hands. She tried her best to control those hands, and the corners of her pale mouth were trembling.
"mom!"
Jiang Yuan could see that Yang Xue was in a state of extreme collapse.
"Mom, put the knife down."
She tried to keep her voice low so that Yang Xue could calm down.
Her mother was clearly losing her composure. She clenched the knife handle tightly with both hands. "Don't worry about it. I've had enough of life. I won't let anyone bully you even if it costs me my life! I've already killed your father. I can't delay you any longer. I'm just a burden. Go back to North City and don't worry about me anymore. Never come back!"
Her voice was full of determination.
Qi Zhenlei seemed to be frozen in time, his hand that was raised high slowly lowered bit by bit. Even the people he brought with him seemed to be instantly shocked. They all stood up straight at the same time, their eyes wide open, unable to open their mouths.
This group of people used to come to the convenience store to cause trouble every now and then. Before, they stole and robbed, and Yang Xue had no way to deal with them. They saw this and acted recklessly, so they succeeded every time.
No one expected that such an honest rural woman would dare to put a knife to someone's neck, and the key point was that she hit the fatal part.
This is no joke.
No one dared to breathe, staring at the knife in Yang Xue's hand, fearing that if she got excited, she would make Qi Zhenlei's neck bleed and die.
Yang Xue stared at Qi Zhenlei, her voice trembling, "Get out! Get out of my house! Never set foot in our house again! You are a beast and a scoundrel! A scumbag!"
"Old Jiang was killed by you. I will never let you bully my daughter again, even if I die!"
Jiang Yuan's mind suddenly buzzed with inspiration. It turned out that her mother also knew that her father was innocent.
Her mother was the person who knew her father best in the world, and even she thought so, which made Jiang Yuan even more certain of her previous guess.
After a few seconds of initial shock, Qi Zhenlei slowly moved his head back, inch by inch. He turned his head, his sight reaching Yang Xue, and said in a low voice, "Auntie, you're really brave. Guangzi, take a picture with your phone. This is the crime scene."
"With a murderer's father and a murderer's mother, your daughter has a pretty strong background. Whether she can get married in the future is another matter, but she's pretty impressive walking around on the street anyway."
