Chapter 339: 335, I want to avenge you personally (Six thousand)_2
However, her patience did not imply that others could be as tolerant.
Zhou Qi, with a displeased look, stepped forward to defend An Man, acting as if she were the elder, “Jian Qing, what kind of language is this? Is this how you treat your elders in the family?
I swear, sooner or later, I’ll tear this brat’s mouth apart.
“It would be better to be clear-headed in broad daylight instead of alleging false relationships upon seeing others,” Jian Qing responded calmly.
Zhou Qi’s face turned from green to purple with anger, but before she could react, Jian Qing’s next words silenced her.
“Sorry, I am running out of patience, I don’t have time to entertain your mouth wagging.”
Before she could finish talking, An Man’s breathing slowed down for a few beats.
The next second, a cold voice exploded in her ear, making her heart clench.
“An Man, it’s time for us to settle our accounts.”
An Man takes a tiny step back, her voice barely steady, “What are you talking about, I don’t understand.”
Jian Qing lets go of Quan Jingwu’s hand and slowly walks towards her.
Each step seems to be treading on An Man’s heart.
She advances, An Man retreats.
Until her knees hit the edge of the coffee table, she stops.
As An Man raises her head, she involuntarily averts her gaze, unable to meet the inky depths of Jian Qing’s eyes.
“An Man, I didn’t want to deal with you so quickly, but since you’re courting death, why not help you?”
Jian Qing stands with her hands in her pockets, her cold voice sending shivers down one’s spine.
An Man kept silent, her head bowed down.
Seeing this, the old An master became more convinced of his speculation.
“Miss Qing, did An Man do something to you?” He questioned, fishing for information.
Jian Qing’s gaze landed lightly on An Man, a cold smile playing on her lips, “An Man, would you like to tell them yourself, or should I do the honors?”
Feeling cornered, An Man jerkily looked up and shoved Jian Qing hard, “I… I don’t know what you’re talking about, stop framing me.”
Her sudden outburst startled everyone present.
Her explosive strength was so strong that it sent Jian Qing stumbling backward.
Jian Qing steadied herself against a muscular chest.
A familiar masculine smell wafted into her nose, a low, husky voice coming from above her.
“Did you get hurt?”
Jian Qing turned her head, met his starry purple gaze, and smiled, “No problem.”
With his arms around her, Quan Jingwu looked at An Man, his cold, bottomless eyes turning homicidal.
“You’re courting death!”
As his icy voice fell, the surrounding air seemed to drop in temperature, as though they were in the icy North Pole.
It was clear that Quan Jingwu was serious about killing An Man. 𝚗ovp𝚞b.𝚌om
An Man’s trembling hands hung by her sides as she stood still, not daring to move.
“Jingwu!”
She cooed softly, taking hold of his hand, and almost instantly, the chill on his handsome face melted away.
“Jingwu, she is not worth your anger.”
Quan Jingwu wrapped her hand in his, lowering his gaze to look at her, “But she hurt you.”
Jian Qing knew that he wasn’t just referring to the scene where An Man pushed her just now, but also the assassination attempt orchestrated by An Man.
Her eyes creased into a smile, and she softly replied, “Let me give her a good lesson later, as a way to avenge you, okay?”
Her voice was just loud enough for everyone to hear, leaving them puzzled.
Avenge Quan Jingwu?
What the hell was going on?
Quan Jingwu gave An Man a chilly glance, his thin lips curving into a tense line as he nodded.
After pacifying him, Jian Qing finally turned to An Man and said, “An Man, I’m actually rather curious. How much every did you pay the Blood Oath Clan to make them work for you, hmm?”
When An Man heard the words “Blood Oath Clan”, a shadow flickered in the depths of her eyes.
“What nonsense are you talking about, what Blood Oath Clan? I have never heard of it.” She stubbornly denied any involvement.
Jian Qing sneered, “An Man, if you have the guts to do it, have the guts to own up to it. I really want to know who lent you the courage to hire an assassin to kill me, hmm?”
Assassin, murder, these two words shocked everyone, including the old An master.
“An Man, is what Miss Qing saying true? Did you hire an assassin to kill her?” The old An master asked, his anger palpable.
Zhou Qi hadn’t expected such a turn of events and didn’t dare to utter a word for the time being.
“No, I didn’t, she’s making it all up, it’s her…” An Man denied vehemently, “What assassin? I don’t know any, Jian Qing is making up stories, she wants to frame me.”
