Chapter 341: The Dagger
Translator: Lonelytree
Xiao Lingyun never thought that the Cheng family would be so vicious.
For the sake of a son, they actually planned to poison the three of them to death. Fortunately, Xiao Lingyun was vigilant, or she would have drunk the chicken soup already.
But to her horror, the Cheng Family was actually forcing her family to drink the poisoned soup.
Ma Meixin’s expression was extremely sinister. She said, “Xiao Lingyun, let me tell you, you have to drink this chicken soup even if you don’t want to.”
At this point, she directly sneered and said, “If you drink this chicken soup, I promise to let your two daughters go. Isn’t that what you want?”
That was indeed what Xiao Lingyun wanted. However, it was obvious that the Cheng Family had a sinister motive. The chicken soup was probably drugged. If she drank the soup and died, her two daughters would fall into the Chen Family’s hands too.
Then, something came to Xiao Lingyun. ‘Cheng Feiping’s lover is pregnant with a son. For the sake of the son’s future, the Chen Family won’t allow my two daughters to live. So their goal is not me but my daughters!”
Thinking of this, Xiao Lingyun panicked.
She immediately shielded her two daughters behind her and said with a guarded expression, “Ma Meixin, I will die before I heed your advice!”
Ma Meixin’s expression turned cold as she said, “Xiao Lingyun, I’ve given you a good path, but you refuse to take it. In that case, you can’t blame us anymore.
“This is perfect. The three of you can accompany each other when you go to hell. It will be very touching.”
Hearing Ma Meixin’s words, Xiao Lingyun’s expression suddenly changed, revealing a frightened and uneasy expression.
She shouted loudly, “How dare you! If you kill the three of us, you’ll have to pay for it with your lives.”
She tightly protected her daughter behind her, looking unusually alert.
Her eyes suddenly darted to the door. She had to escape. She wondered if the Cheng Family would really murder the three of them for the sake of one son. It was quite unlikely. Murder was against the law. It was punishable by death. Would the Cheng Family be so brazen to kill three people at once?
However, human hearts were hard to predict. She wouldn’t put anything past the Cheng Family.
Xiao Lingyun lowered her head and said softly to her two daughters, “Babies, listen up. Ina while, you will rush towards the main door. Open the door and run out immediately. Do you understand?”
Cheng Lulu asked in confusion, “Mom, why? My sister and I haven’t eaten yet. We are hungry.”
Xiao Lingyun’s eyes flashed with a hint of heartache. But at that moment, her priority was their safety.
“Babies, listen to me. After we leave this place, we can eat whatever we want in the future, okay?” Xiao Lingyun coaxed.
Lulu and Rourou didn’t understand what their mother meant.
But they had always been good children and listened to their mother.
“Okay.” Lulu and Rourou nodded.
Xiao Lingyun touched their heads and said with a smile, “My babies are always so smart. Remember. When I shout, run towards the front door as fast as you can. Okay?”
Xiao Lingyun and her daughter spoke in a very low voice, so Ma Meixin couldn’t hear them. However, Ma Meixin could read their thoughts. She sneered and said, “Xiao Lingyun, don’t think about escaping. In order to prevent you from escaping, the gate and the windows have already been locked. You can’t
escape at all.”
Xiao Lingyun’s heart skipped a beat.
Her face turned pale.
The hands that were holding the shoulders of her two daughters couldn’t help but tremble.
They… They were really ruthless!
‘Ma Meixin said ruthlessly, “Come and drink the chicken soup.” Then, she shouted, “Why are you guys hiding inside the room? Come and help!”
As soon as she finished speaking, the doors to the rooms opened.
The ones who walked out were Cheng Dawei, Cheng Feiping, and Cheng Liren.
They were all vicious-looking.
As they walked in, Xiao Lingyun and her two daughters subconsciously took a few steps back.
Ma Meixin shouted, “Why are you two still standing there? Hurry and feed the chicken soup to the bitch and her little bitches.”
At this moment, Xiao Lingyun looked at Cheng Feiping and angrily questioned him, “Cheng Feiping, do you really want to kill the three of us? Lulu and Rourou are your biological daughters. We have been husband and wife before. Do you have to be so heartless?”
Cheng Feiping looked at his two daughters and then at Xiao Lingyun. She looked haggard. She was no longer as beautiful as when he first saw her. Cheng Feiping showed some hesitation and reluctance. After all, he did love Xiao Lingyun back then. They had a sweet time together once upon a time.
Thinking of this, Cheng Feiping suddenly stopped and looked a little confused.
Seeing this, Ma Meixin was very angry.
She said loudly, “Son, why are you hesitating? If the three of them don’t disappear, the Cheng Family will die off in your hands. Ge Chuchu will only agree to give birth to your son if you give her an official title. If not, she’d rather abort the child.”
Cheng Feiping turned to look at his mother and opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something.
Ma Meixin pointed at Xiao Lingyun and said, “Son, look at this granny! How is she worthy of you? She is so ugly.
“And look at the two sluts. They are dark and ugly. They do not look like they belong to the Cheng Family.
“Son, you can’t be soft-hearted now. Remember. You still need to inherit your father’s post at the hospital. Your future, your son, your everything will be gone if you don’t do this.”
Ge Chuchu was the daughter of the county health bureau.
Director Ge had promised them that after Ge Chuchu and Cheng Feiping got married, Cheng Dawei would be promoted to director. Cheng Feiping would be transferred to the Health Bureau as a medical section director.
Ge Chuchu was pregnant with a son.
This was a great thing for the Cheng family.
However, for that to happen, Xiao Lingyun and her daughters had to disappear first. Plus, this would benefit their son via the government policy.
Ge Chuchu herself would definitely not be willing to be a stepmother.
Hearing his mother’s words, Cheng Feiping, who was initially confused, immediately revealed a firm and ruthless expression.
He looked at Xiao Lingyun and said coldly, “Xiao Lingyun, don’t blame me. If you want to blame someone, blame yourself for giving birth to two daughters.
“The existence of you and the two girls has completely blocked the continuation of the Cheng familys future. You have to die for the Cheng Family to rise.”
Xiao Lingyun was very desperate. She couldn’t rely on Cheng Feiping.
She suddenly shouted, “My babies, run!”
Cheng Lulu and Cheng Rourou obliged. They ran towards the main gate.
Ma Meixin looked over and sneered, “You two little sluts, do you think you can escape?”
With that, she and Cheng Liren chased after the child and quickly grabbed them.
“Lulu, Rourou!” Xiao Lingyun saw her two daughters being caught and screamed with despair in her eyes.
With that, she broke free from Cheng Dawei and Cheng Feiping’s hands and ran toward Ma Meixin and Cheng Liren, trying to snatch the children from their hands.
However, she had only managed to escape for two steps when Cheng Feiping grabbed her again.
Cheng Feiping was a young master, but he was still more powerful than a woman. After letting Xiao Lingyun escape once, he would not make the same mistake again.
Xiao Lingyun struggled.
Xiao Lingyun’s face was filled with despair, but she felt even more furious.
She cursed loudly, “You bunch of devils. Even if we die, we will turn into ghosts and take revenge.”
Ma Meixin did not care at all. Instead, she sneered and said mockingly, “Xiao Lingyun, you are my slave when you’re alive. When you’re dead, you’ll return to serve me too.”
Then, she picked up the spoonful of chicken soup and poured it into Lulu’s mouth.
“No!” Xiao Lingyun screamed hysterically!
‘When the soup was put into Cheng Lulu’s mouth, she suddenly heard a scream.
Then, she heard the sound of the spoon falling to the ground.
At this time, the Cheng Family was all scared witless.
Xiao Lingyun was also stunned.
“Ah!” Ma Meixin covered her hand that was suddenly cut off and screamed in pain, “Ah, my hand, my hand!”
Blood oozed out of the severed wrist.
Besides the broken hand on the ground, there was a sharp dagger that was emitting a cold and gloomy light.
Everyone was scared by this change.
None of them knew why a dagger suddenly flew over.
It sawed Ma Meixin’s wrist off.
Cheng Dawei was stunned for a moment and was the first to react.
He suddenly looked around in horror and shouted nervously, “Who is it? Who Is It?”
In order to prevent any accidents, they had already closed all the doors and windows. So, where did the dagger come from? Was there a ghost?
“My hand! Son, quickly send me to the hospital!” Ma Meixin screamed in fear and pain, “Ah, it hurts so much. It’s killing me. Quickly send me to the hospital!”
At that moment, she only cared about her own safety.
Cheng Feiping saw the red liquid gurgling out and was so scared that he took a few steps back.
His face was pale!
His mind was blank. He didn’t even move to give his mother first aid.
“Haha…” At this moment, Xiao Lingyun suddenly laughed out loud. “Haha, Ma Meixin, this is karma. You’ve done so many bad things that even the heavens can’t stand it. A dagger fell down and cut off your hand.”
A certain person in the dark heard Xiao Lingyun’s words and the corner of his mouth twitched.
It was him who threw the dagger, not someone from heaven. However, the man’s dark face revealed a trace of sympathy seeing Xiao Lingyun like this.
‘The woman had to have suffered a lot to have met a scumbag like Cheng Feiging and his family.
This time, Xiao Lingyun broke free from the two men’s control without any effort.
She laughed and said with tears in her eyes, “Ma Meixin, without this hand, you’ll be a cripple in the future. Your husband, Cheng Dawei, will despise you. Then, he’ll find a mistress and have another son. You’ll be chased out instead!”
‘The corner of a certain man’s mouth twitched again. ‘Instead of running away, is she staying to take revenge?
“Actually, I’m wrong, The high and mighty Cheng Dawei already has a mistress and a son. The son is already ten years old, He looks so similar to Cheng Dawei.” Xiao Lingyun continued to mock, “When you’re so worried about the Cheng Family, your model husband was plotting with his mistress to chase
you out of the house.
“But that should be no big deal for a witch like you. You have a pair of capable children. You can still live with them.”
“Nonsense!” Ma Meixin’s wound was still pouring blood, but the words hurt her even more. She didn’t want to believe Xiao Lingyun. However, she noticed Cheng Dawei had only been looking at her with indifference since she lost her hand.
“Ask your good husband, and you’ll know if I’m talking nonsense or not.” Xiao Lingyun said.
“Bitch, I’m going to fight you to the death.” Ma Meixin ignored the pain of her broken wrist and charged at Xiao Lingyun.
At this time, Cheng Feiping finally came back to his senses. He immediately picked up the broken hand on the ground and said, “Mom, let’s go. I’ll send you to the hospital.”
Cheng Dawei and Cheng Liren also reacted.
The most important thing now was to save Ma Meixin’s hand.
However, Cheng Liren said calmly, “Cheng Feiping, deal with these three bitches first. This is the only chance to kill them.”
Cheng Feiping was stunned, “Big Sister?”
