Chapter 452 - We Have No Relations With Each Other In the Future

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

No one had managed to find out about Lian Yun’s connection with the cases in these years.

She did not think that she would fail because of Mu Sihan.

However, she was not afraid. She was still the Duke’s elder daughter-in-law, her husband would not leave her be.

The person who was the saddest and could not accept it at all after finding out the truth was Xue’er.

Grandma did not die because of Nan Zhi, she died because of her mother and her.

Her father also did not die because of Nan Zhi’s uncle. In fact, her mother was the one who caused Nan Zhi’s uncle’s death and even killed her father.

How could it be like this?

They were all close kin, why were they all killing each other?

She could not accept this truth, it was too ruthless!

Lian Yun’s bodyguards had already rushed in.

They protected Lian Yun behind them.

Lian Yun started laughing out loud with crazed red eyes. “Mu Sihan, you won’t be able to win against me before you return to the Ye family. So what if you know the truth, do you think you can do anything to me?”

Mu Sihan’s handsome jaw was tensed, as his black gaze stared at the haughty Lian Yun.

She had taken three lives in her hands, but she was not at all guilty about it!

“Lian Yun, do you think this is the Duke’s place? Do you think these bodyguards can protect you properly without my permission?”

Lian Yun smirked coldly, she shower no fear at all. “Mu Sihan, my husband will not let you off if you dare to touch even a strand of my hair! Although you used your own capability to get to this status today, the person with real power can make you lose everything with just a snap of his fingers.”

“Do you think that woman called Nan Zhi will still like you when you’ve lost everything? Who else apart from our Xue’er would faithfully love a jinx like you?

“Hahaha, thinking about you not marrying our Xue’er clearly, it’s definitely good for her. Anyone who gets into contact with an unlucky jinx like you would be unlucky too. Who knows, maybe that Nan Zhi and your son with leukemia might lose their lives like that anytime!”

Mu Sihan’s hands that were resting by his sides clenched into tight fists. His knuckles cracked loudly as the veins on the back of his hands popped up.

He jumped down from the stage agilely and arrogantly.

When he started walking towards Lian Yun, Xue’er, whose face was covered in tears, suddenly shouted, “Ah Han, I have a few words to say to my mom.”

The bodyguards wanted to stop Xue’er from coming close to Lian Yun. Xue’er’s wet eyelashes fluttered, “Mom, he abandoned me. I have no one to lean on now, I want to be with you.”

Lian Yun stared at Xue’er with her tearstained face. Although she had been abandoned, she was still pretty. Lian Yun might still gain something if she could marry Xue’er off to a slightly older noble.

Besides...

If she was not able to leave successfully, she could use Xue’er as a hostage to leave.

After weighing the pros and cons, Lian Yun told the bodyguard to let Xue’er come over.

Mu Sihan narrowed his dark eyes. He could read Lian Yun’s thoughts and wanted to stop Xue’er, but he was too late.

Xue’er walked towards Lian Yun.

“Mom, I understand now. No matter how others look at you, I won’t blame you. You would always be my mother, and I only have you left...”

Xue’er ran into Lian Yun’s embrace.

Lian Yun’s lips curled up. She was ready to say something when she felt a pain in her chest.

She widened her eyes, staring at Xue’er in disbelief.

Xue’er’s face was completely pale. However, her small hand was holding on to a Western cuisine knife that she had stabbed into Lian Yun’s chest ruthlessly.

Lian Yun was wearing a thin gold evening gown today. The material clung tightly to her skin, and blood could be seen immediately after the knife was stabbed into her.

Some guests that saw the blood started to scream, “Murder, murder!”

Lian Yun widened her eyes further, continuing staring at Xue’er in disbelief, “You... you...”

Xue’er’s eyes were filled with sparkling tears, as bead by bead fell from her eyes. “You’re a devil. You killed Father and Grandma, I hate you...”

“Xue’er, you...”

Lian Yun did not have the chance to say anything before her entire body fell to the floor with a loud thud.

The bodyguards were all in disbelief as they watched Xue’er stab Lian Yun. They moved forward, wanting to grab Xue’er.

Mu Sihan called out for Yi Fan, and within a few minutes, even more bodyguards dressed in black suits appeared in the banquet hall and surrounded them.

Mu Sihan was about to walk towards Xue’er, when the lights in the banquet hall darkened once more suddenly.

A cold glint appeared in Mu Sihan’s dark eyes.

Right then, he felt that something was wrong. He glanced at Xue’er again, and saw a red dot glowing at the back of her head.

He scolded coldly, “Get down.”

He kicked away the bodyguard standing in front of Xue’er. When the bullet was shot at Xue’er, he jumped over, grabbing her before hurriedly rolled several times across the floor.

A loud bang could be heard when the bullet was shot and it landed on the floor not too far away.

The banquet hall was chaotic, thick with screams and people trying to escape.

Yi Fan did not arrange for the electricity blockage this time. He hurriedly brought some of his staff together with him to go check the electric circuit.

Xue’er could not see what was going on around her. All she could sense was the smell of blood that seemed to permeate the air.

She stretched her hand to touch Mu Sihan’s arm, and her palm touched a patch of wet and thick liquid.

“Ah Han, are you injured?”

Mu Sihan let go of Xue’er, before he stood up and took a step back.

Although she could not see, Xue’er could still sense his gaze on her.

“I’ll transfer the deed of the manor to you, and will leave a sum of money for you too.”

Xue’er’s pupils constricted.

Did he plan to use a sum of money to cut off their relationship?

“Ah Han, you can’t be so ruthless to me, you can’t...”

Xue’er hugged her head, as she screamed and shouted, “I’ll die. I’ll die!”

In the darkness, Mu Sihan’s voice was very calm but was laced with slight desolation as well, “Did you know, if you told me about Lian Yun the moment she returned, this tragedy might not have happened? After Grandma did her heart transplant surgery, she might have lived another ten years. She finally saw your return after so many years of yearning for you, yet the two of you took her life.”

...

Mu Sihan entered the surgery room once more..

His arm had been grazed by the bullet when he dragged Xue’er down to avoid that bullet. When he fell, the back of his head had been pierced into by broken glass shards, and he had bled a lot.

Xue’er had a complete mental breakdown the moment he was sent into the ambulance.

She had become abnormal as she was laughing continuously as if in a trance.

Yi Fan also sent her to the hospital.

The ending of the originally happy engagement party made people sigh, having had one death and two injured parties.

...

Lan Yanzhi, Bo Yan and Yan Hua were standing outside of the surgery room.

The two of them had always known that Mu Sihan was rather opinionated and had his own means to achieve what he wanted, despite his bad temper and arrogant personality.

They had their suspicions when he agreed to get engaged to Xue’er. However, they never expected that he would openly confess to Nan Zhi, all the more that he would lure out the murderer that caused the Old Madam’s death.

That kind of murder technique was something that they had never even imagined.

Yan Hua was standing by the side. She was shocked and scared at what had happened at the engagement party tonight.

Murder, gun shooting, injury, death...

For her, too many unbelievable things had happened consecutively within such a short period of time. In a single night, so many things had changed...

Yan Hua took out her phone, wanting to call Nan Zhi. But before she could call her friend, a call from the Yan manor came first.

Yan Hua’s face paled the moment she ended the call. Her phone slipped from her hands and fell to the floor with a loud thud.
