Chapter 461: 461: Knock Him to the Ground_1

The man nodded, pulling out a syringe and a vial of medicine from the small box he brought. He diluted the medicine from the vial and then drew it into the syringe.

“Let’s anaesthetize it before injecting,” the stranger suggested.

Ruan Tianling gestured to a servant, who handed him a tranquilizer gun.

He hoisted the long sedative gun single-handedly, looked up at the balcony, and directly locked eyes with Jiang Yufei.

Ruan Tianling waved his hand, dismissing all the servants. The crowded front yard was now empty, leaving only Ruan Tianling and the vet who came to inject Pili with the drugs.

Ruan Tianling shifted his gaze, raising the tranquilizer gun that resembled a sniper rifle.

He rested the butt of the gun on his shoulder; his face was ice-cold. He cocked his head, squinted to find his firing point, and was about to shoot when—

“Wait.” Jiang Yufei suddenly interrupted, stopping Ruan Tianling.

The man looked up at her, puzzled.

Jiang Yufei descended the stairs, approached the vet and said, “Could you excuse us for a moment? I have something to discuss with him.”

“Sure,” the vet replied with a smile and then left.

“What do you want to say to me?” Ruan Tianling asked.

Jiang Yufei took a step towards him and whispered, “Actually, that child—is not yours.”

Ruan Tianling’s eyes widened. Jiang Yufei suddenly hooked one of his legs, shoved his chest with both hands, and pushed him to the ground.

The man fell in disarray, completely flabbergasted, and had no idea what had just happened.

He propped himself on the hand, sitting on the grassy ground full of mud, appearing quite disheveled.

“You—” Ruan Tianling looked up with anger, only to see Jiang Yufei staring at Pili in the cage.

He froze for a moment, then glanced sideways, and saw Pili full of hostility, growling low at her.

Ruan Tianling was momentarily stunned, then widened his eyes in shock, a cold, fierce glint flashing in his eyes.

Yan Yue hurriedly arrived at the villa only to see Ruan Tianling and Jiang Yufei standing in front of the cage, which held Pili.

She saw the long gun in Ruan Tianling’s hand and assumed it was a hunting rifle.

“Tianling, I heard you’re planning to kill Pili, is that true?!” she rushed forward, followed by her visibly anxious maid, Sun Sao.

“Miss, slow down, careful of the child in your stomach.” Sun Sao yelled, as if she was afraid that others didn’t know Yan Yue was pregnant.

Yan Yue ran up, tightly gripping Ruan Tianling’s arm, her eyes already welling up with tears.

“Tianling, don’t kill Pili. I beg you. Pili has been with you for nine years. Just like our child, we raised her together. How could you bear to kill her? Tianling, if Pili did something wrong, just punish her, don’t be so cruel!”

Ruan Tianling turned to look at her, expressionless, “I don’t want to kill her either, but she killed my child. I can’t spare her life.”

“Pili only attacked Jiang Yufei to protect me. She doesn’t know her; she didn’t know your child was in her stomach. Pili doesn’t understand anything. Killing her like this is unfair to her.”

“So my child should die for nothing then? Get out of my way. Today, I must kill her!” He raised the tranquilizer gun and aimed at Pili.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

“No!” Yan Yue spread her arms blocking Pili, “Tianling, Pili is the one we raised together, you can’t kill her! I beg you, for me and the child’s sake, please spare her!”
