Chapter 23

Raging Fire

A raging fire illuminated half the Mengsong skies in the middle of the night!

At that moment, Lin Hanxing was standing tall, without any emotion on her face.

“You can choose to tell people what happened tonight, but do not forget that…”

Her gaze shifted to the woman whose face looked glum ever since she set the fire.

“You’re the one who set this fire.”

“I can allow you to live healthily, and I can also make you disappear in silence!”

Lin Hanxing had never seen that woman after she spoke.

With a wave of her hand, the latter hurriedly ran away!

Lin Hanxing took another look at the blazing fire.

No one should ever mess up her courtyard!

Neither should anyone mess with her!

She could feel a sight falling upon herself. Lin Hanxing turned around and looked at Lei Xiao.

“Do you find me scary?”

Lin Hanxing laughed sarcastically out of sudden.

Lei Xiao did not speak but walked toward her, pressing his hand on her back swiftly.

Lin Hanxing was held in his arms with great strength.

He put his chin on top of her head and laughed sullenly.

There was a sense of joy and indescribable pampering in his actions…

“…” Lin Hanxing’s face was smothered in the man’s arms—she could clearly smell the scent of his masculinity.

‘Shut up!’

…

At the cemetery.

Old Lady Chen had obviously been waiting for a long time.

There were stacks of paper money burning. Seeing a thin figure at the cemetery at midnight was unsettling.

The fire was flickering. She turned around when she heard movement behind her.

“Ms. Jiu.” Old Lady Chen had been waiting for her.

“I have brought him to you.” Lin Hanxing’s voice sounded cold. The boss, who was trapped under Lei Xiao’s ties, looked at the tombstones around him in horror.

“Thank you for the trouble, Ms. Jiu,” Old Lady Chen said softly.

The boss struggled violently. He knew this old lady—she was the famous shop owner who sold rice noodles!

He whined through his gagged mouth.

Lei Xiao emotionlessly took out the stuff in the man’s mouth.

“Bloody old lady. It’s you!”

Old Lady Chen sneered.

“Ten years ago, I took my husband to see a doctor with only 30,000 yuan. It was you… You took away my husband’s life-saving money outside the hospital! I bit your arm hard. Do you remember me now?”

The boss was stunned. He must have done too many evil deeds…

He could not recall anything at that moment.

“My husband was living in pain. Finally, he drugged himself when I didn’t notice and died hideously in my arm!”

Thereafter, she stayed in Mengsong and opened that rice noodles shop.

Old Lady Chen had been looking for him the whole ten years.

Half a month ago, she finally got a clue.

“So I want you to feel the heartbreak too!”

The boss looked in horror as the other party approached…

“I’ll be waiting for you at our usual place…”

Everything that happened afterward had nothing to do with Lin Hanxing.

She turned around and left.

Lei Xiao’s gaze fell upon Lin Hanxing.

Her eyes were full of complicated emotions that even she may not have realized.

Suddenly, wailing could be heard from behind!
