Chapter 99 She is your cousin, do you really have the heart to die?
Yu Atu ran to get some paper and pen, but she was restrained by the shopkeeper before she even entered the door. She was so frightened that she immediately screamed loudly, "What do you want to do? Let me go!"
Hearing her cry, Shi Chunfen's expression changed and he stood up, "You are so brave, dare to detain my people?!"
Shi Cui also became anxious and rushed out of the door, "Usagi! Don't touch Usagi!"
Only Chu Ling sat expressionless, clasping the handle of the knife in his hand, "Catch a girl and threaten me. Your Cao Gang is really getting more and more promising."
Weng Zhenhai turned pale and couldn't help but yell, "Jiang Chao, what the hell are you doing?!"
The shopkeeper named "Jiang Chao" rushed in quickly and said through gritted teeth: "Young Master, please bear with me for now."
He looked at Chu Ling and sneered: "What girl? I clearly heard her calling Mrs. Chu's cousin. Uncle Chu won't be so cruel that he doesn't even care about his own relatives, right?"
Weng Zhenhai was stunned and looked at Chu Ling subconsciously. Seeing that his face still hadn't changed at all, his heart sank again.
While they were talking, Shi Chunfen had already pulled Shi Cui and signaled her to calm down, then returned to her original position and sat down calmly, "She is my cousin, and she is just a girl. Shopkeeper Jiang will not think that the Chu family is big.
Are there too many cousins, big and small? Any cat or dog is worthy of being exchanged for the life of the eldest son of the Cao Gang, so your Cao Gang is too worthless."
"You?!" These words made Jiang Chao's face darken and he narrowed his eyes, "The eldest young lady of the Chu family is indeed very sharp."
He asked his men to escort Yu Atu in, stretched out his hand to strangle her neck, and said with a ferocious smile: "You are right, a mere cousin may not be taken seriously by the Chu family, but I don't know what you, eldest mistress, can...
Can't you just watch your cousin die in vain and remain indifferent?"
His hand suddenly tightened and pinched Yu Atu's face red. She struggled violently, but she couldn't get rid of it. "Cousin, mother... help me!"
Shi Cui could still endure it, but when she saw this scene, she could not hold on. She grabbed Shi Chunquin and begged: "Spring Equinox, forget it, please let me let Mr. Weng go..."
Shi Chunquin pursed her lips and said nothing.
She has always been weak-tempered, and if she was the one who made the decision, she would definitely settle the matter.
But the person making the decision right now is Chu Ling, and the whole matter is related to the face of the Chu family. If she gives in easily, she will not be worthy of the title of the eldest mistress of the Chu family. Not to mention that Chu Ling will look down on her, and even she will look down on herself.
Therefore, even if Shi Cui opened her mouth, she still gritted her teeth and looked at it without speaking.
Shi Cui begged for a long time, but saw that she remained indifferent. Seeing that Yu Atu's struggle was getting smaller and smaller, she felt heartbroken and knelt down, "Equinox, Usagi is dying. I beg you, she
But your cousin, can you really bear to die without saving me?"
The moment she knelt down, Shi Chunfen's whole scalp was numb. She instinctively stretched out her hand to help, but she heard a clang next to her. The knife in Chu Ling's hand flew out at some point, and cut off Jiang Chao's right hand with a stab.
, blood splattered everywhere in an instant, and before the equinox could be seen clearly, a warm palm covered her eyes, completely blocking her sight with a very domineering gesture.
"ah--"
Shi Chunfen couldn't think about what happened inside the house, Jiang Chao's scream told her everything.
"Hand, my hand!"
Jiang Chao's eyes widened and he looked at the hole in his right arm with fear. He wanted to stretch out his left hand to cover it, but he couldn't.
Yu Atu was finally rescued. His whole body went limp and he collapsed on the ground, gasping for air.
When Shi Cui saw this, she quickly crawled over and protected her by her side, "Don't be afraid, daughter, mother is here to save you, mother is here to save you!"
The mother and daughter hugged each other and cried. Weng Zhenhai on the side reacted and bent down to grab the knife on the ground.
How could Chu Ling give him this opportunity? He covered Shi Chunfen's eyes with one hand, picked up the chopsticks on the table with the other, and thrust them into Weng Zhenhai's palm with a whoosh, causing him so much pain that he couldn't hold the knife at all.
Weng Zhenhai screamed and became furious, "Chu, are you crazy? Do you really dare to attack me?"
Chu Ling covered Shi Chunfen's eyes tightly and said coldly: "Dare you dare? You can try again."
Weng Zhenhai choked and covered his palm in pain. Of course he wouldn't dare to do it unless he didn't want the other hand either.
Hearing their screams, the men in the store quickly rushed in with the guys, protecting the two people behind them, "Who dares to act so recklessly on the Cao Gang's territory?!"
Shi Cui had already taken Yu Atu to hide at Chu Ling's side, nervously watching everything in front of her.
Chu Ling looked at them expressionlessly, with a hint of coldness on his lips, "I'm afraid you don't know who is the one who is so presumptuous."
Hearing that things were getting louder and louder, Shi Chunfen frowned. She raised her hand and patted Chu Ling's hand covering her eyes, indicating that he could let go.
Chu Ling glanced at Jiang Chao and Weng Zhenhai and saw that the two of them had covered their wounds and retreated behind his men. They should not scare Shi Chunfen anymore, so he slowly took his palms back and let Shi Chunfen squint his eyes to look at them.
Look at everything in front of you.
Even though he had been mentally prepared, Shi Chunfen's face turned a bit pale when he saw the blood all over the ground.
She forced herself to hold back the discomfort in her heart, and looked through the crowd, accurately landing on Weng Zhenhai, "Young Master Weng is the first to stir up trouble and the last to break his promise. Now he wants to bully the few and completely build a grudge against the Chu family?"
Weng Zhenhai originally wanted to take revenge on Chu Ling, but now he calmed down and knew clearly that his subordinates were no match for Chu Ling. The so-called bullying of the few with more was just a matter of looking imposing. In a real fight, everyone here was not Chu Ling.
Ling's opponent may even lose the entire restaurant.
As the saying goes, he who knows the current affairs is a wise man. He thought about it again and again, and finally compromised as if accepting his fate, "Okay, everyone is wrong this time. I overestimated my ability. You also cut me and chopped off an arm of my hand."
, why don’t we just let it go and let everyone laugh away their grudges, what do you think, Brother Chu?”
He was smarter this time and didn't ask about the equinox again, thinking that Chu Ling was a man and should be more relaxed and not ask him to write any more documents.
Unexpectedly, Chu Ling glanced at him and said coldly: "Are you worthy of letting go of grudges with a smile?"
Weng Zhenhai's face stiffened and he couldn't bear it and said: "Chu, don't go too far. Even if your mother is the head of Huating County, our Cao Gang is not easy to mess with. Don't think that you can do whatever you want just because you have the royal support!"
This is indeed true. The Cao Gang's power is spread across all major river basins. Even the imperial court has to give three points of support. This is what Shi Chunfen has always been afraid of.
