Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

The Mu family’s head, Mu Ling’s father, Mu Jingwen, had suddenly passed away, leaving behind one listed company and various assets. Without his elder brother, the Mu family’s second uncle, who was usually submissive, could finally straighten his back. He had planned to take the position of the Mu family’s head in a few days, but it would not be easy. Mu Jingwen’s first wife, Qiu Liqin, had five children. The eldest son, Mu Shijia, and the second son, Mu Shihe, had entered the company after graduating from university and had some power in their hands. Even though their father was no longer around, they had the ability to take over the company.

So now, the uncle and nephew trio were in the living room, exchanging harsh words.

Mu Ling did not want to go in and disturb them, so she went to a small side hall next to the door and waited. A premonition occurred. Her second brother, Mu Shihe, was about to die!

As expected.

“Bang!” The sound of a gunshot reverberated through the entire villa, followed by shrill screams and crying. The living room was in a mess.

“Quickly call the police! Call the ambulance! Hurry up!” Someone shouted.

Mu Ling suddenly stood up and slowly walked into the living room with the sandalwood box. The people in the living room gathered around her. She pushed through the crowd and saw Mu Shihe lying in a pool of blood.

Mu Shihe had been shot in the chest and had difficulty breathing. It was obvious that he was on the verge of death. The person who fired the shot was his second uncle, Mu Jingwu.

Mu Jingwu originally wanted to use the gun to scare his two nephews so that they would agree to him being the head of the Mu family. Who knew that both sides would lose control of their emotions and actually fight. During the fight, he had accidentally pulled the trigger and hit Mu Shihe. He was completely flustered. He threw the gun away and sat on the ground, his face pale. He can’t be in trouble! He didn’t want to spend the rest of his life in prison!

Just as everyone was panicking and at a loss, Mu Ling squatted down beside Mu Shihe and held his trembling hand. He comforted him softly, “Don’t be afraid,”

After she finished speaking, she opened the sandalwood box in her arms, removed the embroidered cloth, and took out the silver needles.

Qiu Liqin, who was crying her eyes out, noticed Mu Ling. She grabbed Mu Ling’s wrist and yelled, ” Who are you? What do you want to do to my son!”

“Save him,” Mu Ling said.

“You’re a doctor?” Qiu Liqin asked

“I’m not,” Mu Ling replied.

“What kind of trouble are you causing if you’re not a doctor?!” Qiu Liqin was burning with anger. She scolded until her face and ears were red. She shook off Mu Ling’s hand and turned to the servant, “Who let this crazy girl in? throw her out immediately! Why isn’t the ambulance here yet?”

“If you don’t believe me, he’s going to die soon,” Mu Ling said nonchalantly. “But it’s up to you. Whether you save him or not, it’s up to me.”

Hearing this, Qiu Liqin was stunned. She looked at this strange little girl, then at her son, who was in danger. She hesitated, as she didn’t dare to risk her son’s life.

Mu Shihe could no longer breathe. His limbs were twitching and his eyes were rolling back. The situation was very dangerous! If he didn’t receive emergency treatment, he would really lose his life!

Qiu Liqin panicked. She didn’t have time to think about the consequences. She grabbed Mu Ling’s wrist and asked, “You can really save him?”

Mu Ling nodded.

Qiu Liqin gritted her teeth and said, “alright, go ahead! Please save my son!”

Mu Ling quietly shook off Qiu Liqin’s hand, a hint of disdain in her eyes. Then, she skillfully pierced the silver needles into Mu Shihe’s throat one after another. She had to save him! His father was dead, and his second brother, Mu Shihe, was one of the candidates for the head of the Mu family. Perhaps, he would take care of her a little because she had saved his life. She needed to find a backer in the Mu family! Although he didn’t know if this backer would be useful, he still had to give it a try.

After the silver needle was inserted into Mu Shihe’s throat, Mu Shihe, who had difficulty breathing, could finally breathe smoothly after a while. He was no longer twitching.

Everyone was stunned. They were all curious. Who was this little girl who had suddenly appeared in the house? He actually knows acupuncture, and his medical skills are so brilliant!

After a while, the police and the ambulance arrived. Second uncle Mu Jingwu was taken into the police car, and Mu Shihe was carried into the ambulance. As for the Mu family’s people, some of them got into the ambulance, while the rest drove behind the ambulance.

Mu Ling also got into the ambulance. She was pulled up by Qiu Liqin.

When they arrived at the hospital, Mu Shihe was out of danger after the doctor’s emergency treatment. The whole family heaved a sigh of relief, but at the same time, they could not wait to kill the culprit, Mu Jingwu!

“Mom, I’m going to the police station to settle second uncle’s matter.” The eldest son, Mu Shijia, said.

Qiu Liqin stayed by the bed and said in a low voice, “F*k that b *stard almost killed Shihe. I’m not done with him. I want him to stay in prison for the rest of his life and never come out. How dare he covet the position of the Mu family’s head? he’s just dreaming!”
