Chapter 164 - The Death Of Ning Yao
“Ning Yao, you made one wrong choice after another. You lost your own instincts, and you can’t turn back anymore!”
Tears rolled down Ning Yao’s face. How did it turn out like this? How was she stuck with such an ending? She laughed, pointed at Ning Qing, and said, “Ning Qing, you are lying to me. I kidnapped you yesterday. Even if I escape to the ends of the earth, you would still not let me go. You want definitely chase me to my own death!”
Ning Qing looked calmly at the bump on her belly. She closed her eyes and said sorrowfully, “I don’t care if you believe or not. I gave my last grace to the child in your belly, but you’ve squandered your last chance!”
Ning Yao cried heart-wrenchingly. She looked at Xu Junxi. “Junxi, Junxi, please help me out. We were once a couple. I, Ning Yao, really did only have one man in my life.”
Xu Junxi looked sideways with ultimate determination. “Ning Yao, we will end everything here.”
“Junxi, don’t do this to me. I followed you for 3 years, I still have your child in my stomach, and you cannot be so cruel…”
“Ning Yao, you are still making use of the child in your belly? Don’t you have a touch of regret and guilt? Even if this were for the child inside you, do you still not understand? In this life of yours, your meeting with Xu Junxi was such a blissful matter. You said he was easy to cheat, but being easy to cheat is also another form of love. Those 3 years, he also did love you, and he believed in you. But it was you who used your own two hands to end this relationship between the two of you.”
Ning Yao stumbled backwards after listening and asked, “Junxi, is that right? You loved me before?”
“Yes,” the officers nodded their heads and said. “Ning Yao used a knife to stab the victim, Xu Junxi, and also masterminded a warehouse kidnapping yesterday. We are here to arrest her now.”
Aunt Xu took a few steps back and shook her head in disbelief. “What? It was Ning Yao who stabbed my son? She is so cruel!” Ning Qing looked coldly on the scene in front of her. She did not say anything and left. Karma played its role.
After two steps, a familiar figure appeared in front of her. Mu Yunfan walked out of the room. He had changed into a windbreaker with Butler Zhou by his side. There were two bodyguards behind him. He looked like he had discharged. Ning Qing stopped in her tracks. Mu Yunfan saw her coming towards him. His face was still a little pale, but bore a warm and gentle smile. “Qingqing, why are you at the hospital?”
“Oh, Xu Junxi is injured, I came over to check on him.”
Ning Qing did not want to elaborate and she asked, “Have you been discharged? What time is the flight tomorrow?”
“It’s an 8 o’ clock flight,” Mu Yunfan replied.
Ning Qing nodded her head and said, “Okay.” She put on a smile and said,” I wish you a smooth journey, see you.”
Ning Qing left.
Looking at Ning Qing’s figure, Mu Yunfan balled his hands into a fist. She was reluctant to even say one more word to him now.
“Young Master.” Butler Zhou caringly came to put a hand Mu Yunfan’s elbow. Mu Yunfan waved him away, indicating that he was fine. He stood there looking at Ning Qing as she walked away, his eyes expressing a deep long chillness.
…
Ning Qing walked to the Tea Pavilion villa. While she was walking, she sent a message to Lu Shaoming.
[Hubby, Ning Yao was arrested, Xu Junxi is injured and in the hospital now. Everything is settled now, I am returning home. Waiting for you to come back to eat dinner with me.]
[Okay] It was barely 3 seconds and the man’s reply came.
Ning Qing placed her phone back into her pocket. She lifted her gaze to look at the bright city in the distance, and her heart was somewhat heavy. She, Xu Junxi, and Ning Yao finally did have an ending, but it was a pity that this ending involved a young, innocent life. Ning Qing felt weird, it was a woman’s innate 6th sense and she had a bad premonition.
When she returned to the Tea Pavilion villa, the villa was empty. “Auntie Yang, Auntie Yang.” She called out a few times but Auntie Yang was not inside the villa.
Could Auntie Yang be on vacation? Ning Qing did not mind.
She walked into the kitchen and the vegetables had been washed clean. But they were still raw. Ning Qing rolled up her sleeves and prepared to cook personally. After slaving in the kitchen for one hour, dinner was finally ready.
Just as she finished, she heard the sound of a car approaching the villa. Ning Qing ran to the door and she stood by the stairs to see Lu Shaoming get out of the Bentley.
“Hubby, you are back.” Ning Qing opened her arms and ran down the stairs into his embrace. Lu Shaoming carefully embraced her and kissed her hair. He said in a pampering tone, “What would you do if I didn’t catch you in my embrace?”
“How could you not?” Ning Qing stretched out her white finger to poke his stone like chest .
“Hubby is the best, he would definitely hug me.”
Lu Shaoming curled his lips into a small smile. He picked up his woman and walked towards the villa. “Like your husband’s muscles? It seems like I have to persist on exercising every night.” Ning Qing paused for a few seconds before she could understand his meaning.
She punched him and said, “If you want to exercise, go to the gym, you are not allowed to make dirty jokes.”
Lu Shaoming frowned, meaning – With wife present, his body need not worry!
Ning Qing went into his embrace. They looked into each other’s eyes sweetly and both smiled. When they were about to enter the villa, Ning Qing suddenly recalled, “Hubby, why is Auntie Yang not in the villa? Is she on leave?”
Lu Shaoming paused in his tracks. “Auntie Yang is not in the villa?” The moment he said those words, two bright headlights shone. The two of them looked and saw a police car pull up in front of them.
Lu Shaoming looked on and placed Ning Qing gently back on the ground. Ning Qing was puzzled. “Why would the police come here?”
Lu Shaoming’s eyes darkened, one of his hands was in his pocket, another on Ning Qing’s soft and tiny waist, pulling her into his embrace.
4 police officers walked over and the officer in front showed his badge. “Young Master Lu, how are you? I am the sergeant on duty. I have to disturb you today because your wife Ning Qing has been indicted on a charge of premeditated murder.”
“What?” Ning Qing was shocked.
Lu Shaoming was calm and silent. His hand on her waist pinched her a few times to comfort her. He opened his mouth slowly. “My wife killed someone? Where is the evidence?”
“30 minutes ago, Ning Yao, who was in hospital, was murdered by someone in a way that looked premeditated. Two lives were instantly lost. We have eyewitness and closed circuit surveillance camera to show that it was your wife that killed Ning Yao. The evidence stands against her.”
“Ning Yao is dead?” Ning Qing went forward to deny it. “This is not possible, 30 minutes ago, I was at home. It must be a doppelganger, someone who looks like me!”
“Madam Lu, if you were at home at that time, do you have an alibi?” the police officers asked politely.
Ning Qing felt her heart sink. Things were amiss, and Auntie Yang was not around.
She knew that someone had included her into their plans to commit an act of murder. The police officer showed his warrant and said, “Young Master Lu, I am very sorry. We must act in accordance with legal procedures. If Madam Lu murdered Ning Yao, with such strong evidence… This is the warrant, we need to bring Madam Lu away. We ask Young Master Lu to cooperate with our work.”
Lu Shaoming tightly shut his thin lips and did not speak. Ning Qing held onto his sleeve and said, “Shaoming, I will go with them. I didn’t kill anyone. I believe that the law will prove my innocence.”
