Chapter 531 - Life Worse Than Death

Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales

“Miss Yun...” Zhao Long muttered weakly. In the end, he closed his eyes and lowered his head.

Yun Xiangxiang ignored Zhao Long. Instead, she looked at the young man who seemed to have done nothing wrong. “What enmity do I have with you?”

Before she saved Zhao Guibi, she did not even know that Zhao Guizhang existed in this world. However, it was this unknown person who almost took her life.

“Who told you to meddle in other people’s business? Without you, she would have died a long time ago.” Zhao Guizhang looked at Yun Xiangxiang with hatred.

It was this person, this unforgivable existence, who had ruined his perfect plan, making him desire to burn Yun Xiangxiang into ashes.

“Do I deserve to die because I saved the person you wanted to harm?” People who dared to hire murderers at such a young age were indeed different from normal people.

“Yes, you asked for it.” Zhao Guizhang said confidently, “You saved her! Since I failed to kill her, she will definitely try to kill me. However, she’s just too smart, finding me before I can even kill her. What can I do now? Since I’m going to die, then might as well we all die together, hahahahaha...”

Zhao Guizhang laughed maniacally. “If you die, there will be people who won’t let the Zhao family off. The entire Zhao family will die with me!”

Yun Xiangxiang finally understood why Zhao Guibi said that she was the one who dragged her down. It turned out that this was the reason why Zhao Guizhang wanted her to die.

It wasn’t because she saved Zhao Guibi, or rather, it wasn’t entirely because she saved Zhao Guibi. After all, Zhao Guibi didn’t come back alive, so he wouldn’t be forced into a desperate situation by Zhao Guibi.

Being forced into a desperate situation by Zhao Guibi, he no longer had any ability to resist. He was not resigned to it to the point of going insane.

His clever little brain had guessed that Song Mian was the person backing her. If he killed her, Song Mian would soon find out about the Zhao family.

When that time came, the entire Zhao family would have to pay the price for Yun Xiangxiang’s death. If he could not live, he would drag the entire Zhao family down with him.

“I have nothing more to say. How do you want to deal with him?” Yun Xiangxiang turned her head and asked Zhao Guibi.

For the first time, Yun Xiangxiang did not want to send him to prison. What she wanted to do was hire a murderer to kill this 17-year-old guy. After all, a minor could not be sentenced to death.

His attempt to murder Zhao Guibi and Yun Xiangxiang failed. Even if he was sent to court, there would be defense lawyers to fight for him.

Such a social scourge and a psychopath, it would be a waste of taxpayers’ money for him to live another day.

“I don’t want him to die.” Zhao Guibi looked at Yun Xiangxiang.

“Guibi, he’s your brother, he’s your brother...” Zhao Guizhang’s mother heard Zhao Guibi’s words, and her eyes lit up. She threw herself at Zhao Guibi, but was pushed down by Zou Yanan, who had been following Zhao Guibi.

Yun Xiangxiang glanced at the mother and son, but Zhao Guizhang had a look of disdain on his face.

“I want him to live a life worse than death.” Zhao Guibi’s gaze fell on Zhao Guizhang without any emotion. She looked at him for a few seconds before looking away, “I’ll find someone to run him over three times with a car later. Don’t worry, I’ll find someone with skills. I guarantee that he won’t die.”

“Then what?” Yun Xiangxiang didn’t think it was cruel. What she had experienced today was soul-stirring, and it made her heart unable to soften.

“I don’t need this little bit of money,” Zhao Guibi admitted tactfully. “When I’m in a bad mood, I can go and see how miserable he is. It can even adjust my mood.”

Zhao Guibi’s words directly scared Zhao Guizhang’s mother until she fainted. Zhao Long opened his mouth but didn’t say anything.

Yun Xiangxiang, Song Qian, and He Wei reacted very calmly, as if they had heard nothing.

Zhao Guiquan and Xue Yu couldn’t help but gulp. This was the first time Xue Yu had seen such a ruthless woman.

Zhao Guiquan was still fearful. He knew that his sister was not to be trifled with and would usually avoid her. He couldn’t help but feel lucky.

“That’s good, too. Don’t burden the police station.” Yun Xiangxiang nodded in agreement with Zhao Guibi.

“It’s good that you don’t have any objections.” Zhao Guibi called Yun Xiangxiang over to listen to her opinion.

If Yun Xiangxiang didn’t like this way of handling things, she wouldn’t have any objections to whatever outcome Yun Xiangxiang wanted.

“I don’t have any objections. If there’s nothing else, I’ll take my leave first.” After all, this was her family’s matter. Yun Xiangxiang didn’t want to stay and watch Zhao Guibi punish Zhao Guizhang.

As long as she vented her anger, it would be good enough for him to let Zhao Guizhang die.

This guy was smart. If he went to prison, he might even cause trouble. It was enough for Zhao Guibi to keep him alive.

“Wait.” Zhao Guibi held Yun Xiangxiang’s wrist. “How do you want to deal with me?”

“Huh?” Yun Xiangxiang looked back in surprise. When she met Zhao Guibi’s serious gaze, she could not help but laugh. “I don’t think you need to be responsible for this. Back then, you were on your last breath, whether or not to save you was my choice. I could have left you in the wilderness.

“But I didn’t. I just wanted to make my conscience feel better. What happened after I saved you is not something you can control. First, you didn’t order anyone to harm me. Second, you didn’t have the intention to harm me. I have no reason to vent my anger on you.”

Zhao Guibi stared at her quietly and deeply. After a long time, she let go of her hand and said, “I owe you my life. You can come to me anytime to take it.”

Yun Xiangxiang pressed her hand on Zhao Guibi’s shoulder and said, “Didn’t we say before that we are friends? Friends should help each other and be considerate of each other? As long as we are true friends, as long as we don’t suspect and hurt each other, our friendship shouldn’t be interrupted for any reason.”

After a pause, Yun Xiangxiang said, “As for Ah Mian, I will explain it to him personally.”

Yun Xiangxiang did not stay at the Zhao residence for long. She left after about ten minutes.

When she returned to the hotel, she would definitely not be able to film today’s scenes. Even if Yun Xiangxiang wanted to do it, Xie Manliang was worried about her condition.

Therefore, he pushed it to tomorrow afternoon, delaying her return by another day.

When she was video-chatting with Song Mian that night, she was still a little nervous. She told Song Mian everything that had happened. She didn’t know the details, so she was too lazy to investigate. Since the mastermind was already out, there was no need to pursue the matter.

Zhao Guibi would take care of everything. During the entire conversation, Yun Xiangxiang had been smiling ingratiatingly, glancing at Song Mian’s expression from time to time.

Perhaps Yun Xiangxiang had prepared herself mentally in advance, but Song Mian’s expression didn’t change during the entire conversation. He was still looking at her with a gentle and indulgent gaze

“Ah Mian, Guibi is my friend, the Zhao family...” Yun Xiangxiang smiled at him.

“Yes, I understand what you mean. Rest early.” Song Mian nodded slightly.

Yun Xiangxiang studied Song Mian’s expression carefully before she went to say goodnight and hung up the video.

The moment the video ended, Song Mian’s smile and gentleness disappeared. “Let Zhao Long stay at home and focus on raising his son.”
