A gunshot rang out.
However, Sang Qianqian did not stop. Her figure quickly disappeared at the top of the stairs.
On the other hand, Ruan Xiaodie felt a sharp pain in her heart. She lowered her head and saw blood gushing out, dyeing her white dress and light yellow coat red. She was shot before she could even pull the trigger.
Her body shook, and the gun in her hand fell to the ground. She struggled to hold onto the balcony and barely stood still.
Sang Qianqian said that she had no accomplices, so who was the one who fired the gun? This person could actually ambush her silently and shoot from a distance with precision.
Ruthlessness flashed in her eyes. No, she had not completely lost. At least, she still had people downstairs. If Sang Qianqian went downstairs, she would only die. As for the child, if he fell from the third floor, he would be severely injured even if he did not die. The only regret was that she did not get to see Shen Hanyu’s end.
However, he was trapped in a lawsuit and couldn’t get out of it in a short time. Sang Qianqian and that child’s deaths would definitely make him suffer for the rest of his life!
Moreover, she still had the people that Shao Jin left behind for her overseas. Those people could still be useful. Even if she died, those people would still follow her orders and would not let Shen Hanyu off easily.
Ruan Xiaodie took a breath, took out her phone, and dialed the number of the leader of those people. The call went through, and someone picked up very quickly. However, it was not the voice she was familiar with. Instead, it was the calm and steady voice of a middle-aged man.
“There’s no need to call. This person is already dead.” The voice was very close as if it came from beside her.
Ruan Xiaodie suddenly turned her head. Someone was holding a phone and walking up the stairs unhurriedly.
When she saw who it was, she looked as if she had seen a ghost. “Aren’t you already dead?”
“I just faked my death.” Zhen Yiping smiled. “Otherwise, how could I make you let your guard down and show up openly?”
Ruan Xiaodie’s face turned pale. “You’ve been following me?”
“I should say that Hanyu’s men have been looking for you for a long time. Unfortunately, you’ve hidden yourself very well. You were so elusive that you’re nowhere to be seen.” Zhen Yiping said in a deep voice.
“The person who wanted to kill me in the rehabilitation hospital was one of your people, right? I originally planned to return to Zhen Group, but Hanyu asked me to beat that man at his own game and lure him out. From the moment he showed up, all your actions were under our surveillance.”
The blood on Ruan Xiaodie’s face had already faded completely.
Zhen Yiping threw the phone in his hand on the ground in front of her. “You should know this phone, right? The people you brought back from abroad have all been captured by me. Ruan Xiaodie, you’re on your own now.”
These words were the last straw that broke her. Her face was as pale as a sheet of paper, and she couldn’t stand on her feet. She slid along the balcony and slowly sat on the ground.
In her revenge plan, the only people she feared the most were Shen Hanyu and Zhen Yiping. Therefore, she tried her best to trap Shen Hanyu overseas. She had sent someone to kill Zhen Yiping, who was hospitalized because of illness, but she did not succeed.
Originally, she had planned to carry out a second plot, but who knew that Zhen Yiping had actually “passed away” due to illness.
At that time, she thought that God was helping her, so she immediately returned to the country to kick Li Zhongjin out and quickly implemented the plan to make Zhen Group fall apart.
Who knew that while she was chasing her ideals, she neglected the dangers behind her. She made a mistake and ended up in a tragic state.
“So you all know what I did after I returned to the country.” Ruan Xiaodie gritted her teeth. “Was killing me today part of your plan?”
“It’s rare for you to show up, and you even chose such a desolate place. Naturally, it’s the best opportunity to capture you.” Zhen Yiping looked at Ruan Xiaodie and shook his head.
“It’s just that we didn’t expect that you would use Xu Meixi to kill Li Zhongjin. We also didn’t expect that you were so inhumane that you even wanted to kill Sang Qianqian. If you didn’t want to hurt her, we wouldn’t have acted so quickly.”
Ruan Xiaodie sneered. “Sang Qianqian has lied to me several times and wants to get back together with Shen Hanyu. Why should I give her another chance?”
“Weren’t you trying to get her and Xie Shi’an together to take revenge on Hanyu? Now that she gave birth to Xie Shi’an’s child, isn’t this the best revenge for Hanyu?” Zhen Yiping couldn’t understand Ruan Xiaodie’s actions.
“Xie Shi’an has done his best for the Ruan family. Even if Sang Qianqian wanted to find Hanyu, why would you throw Xie Shi’an’s child down the stairs?”
“Because this child must die.” Ruan Xiaodie laughed sinisterly. “Zhen Yiping, you’ll never know that this child, it’s not Xie Shi’an’s…”
Suddenly, the sound of a baby crying came from the wind. Her pupils dilated. “That child is not dead?”
How could such a small and soft ball still be alive after being thrown down from the third floor?
“Hanyu came just in time and caught the child. Fortunately, he is fine.” Zhen Yiping looked at Ruan Xiaodie.
“What were you trying to say just now? There’s nothing between this child and Xie Shi’an?”
Ruan Xiaodie bit her lip hard. She could no longer say the words “nothing at all”. She could not tell whether her eyes were filled with shock or hatred as she said, “Wasn’t Shen Hanyu trapped overseas?”
“No one can trap Hanyu, not even the police of A Country.” Zhen Yiping showed a rare look of relief.
“Hanyu will definitely win that lawsuit.”
So, had she completely lost? The child was not dead, Sang Qianqian was still alive, and Shen Hanyu would not be imprisoned…
Ruan Xiaodie coughed violently, and blood trickled down the corner of her mouth. Her face was frighteningly pale, and the wound on her chest kept bleeding. Her white dress had long been dyed red. The sharp pain from the wound seemed to continue to pierce through her body, and her life force seemed to flow out along with the surging blood.
She no longer had the strength to speak. She leaned against the balcony wall and looked up stiffly. The setting sun in the grayish-white sky had disappeared at some point, and the twilight in the distance was gradually gathering.
Her vision seemed to be getting darker and darker, along with the aura of death tightly wrapping around her.
Her eyelids closed heavily, and her consciousness began to dissipate.
“Xiaodie, Ruan Xiaodie!” All of a sudden, someone held her and shouted her name.
Ruan Xiaodie forced her eyes open and saw Xie Shi’an’s anxious and worried face.
“I’ll send you to the hospital.” He picked her up, his eyes filled with undisguised concern. He hated Ruan Xiaodie, but he didn’t want to see her die.
“It’s useless, Brother Shi’an, I… I’m about to die.” Ruan Xiaodie gently tugged at his clothes. Her voice was so soft that it was almost inaudible.
His eyes were slightly red. “You clearly have a better path, why did you choose this one… Road of no return?”
“Until the last moment, who knows whose path of no return this is.” Ruan Xiaodie laughed at herself. She thought that the road of no return was someone else’s. However, she never thought that she herself would lose..
