Chapter 123: Leaving Somebody to Die?

“Juan!” Qiao Zhongxing furiously shouted. “Come back here.”

It was the middle of the night and they were somewhere unsafe, but she dared to walk inside the forest by herself? Qiao Zhongxing was truly angered half to death by his brainless sister!

Qiao Wenjuan ignored her brother and continued treading inside the forest in a huff with a scowl, ignoring her mother’s continuous calls of “Juan’er, Juan’er.”

Qiao Mu and Qiao Hu looked at each other, bewildered.

Their youngest aunt not only was headache-inducingly naive but also headstrong beyond cure…

Qiao Zhongbang frowned and had the children go to sleep before saying to Qiao Zhongxing, “Second Brother, go to sleep too. I will guard for the night.”

“Eldest Brother, then wake me up in the second half of the night.”

“No need. You must be very tired from driving for so long. I can endure it. Go to sleep then, we still have to rely on you tomorrow.” Qiao Zhongbang hastened his brother to sleep and conversed with Wei Ziqin before scurrying them all to rest.

Every once in a while, bird calls could be heard from inside the forest.

Qiao Zhongbang also frequently turned to look at the direction that Qiao Wenjuan departed.

As time flowed past and Qiao Wenjuan was still nowhere in sight, Qiao Zhongbang started turning anxious.

This sister of his was truly too immature! Qiao Zhongbang could not help but complain inwardly and also slightly grumbled about his mother’s unrestrained pampering toward his sister for spoiling her to be so ignorant.

In the dark of night, the slightly curved half-moon hung high up in the sky.

Everyone was sound asleep on a simple straw bed laid on the ground.

This entire day had been too tumultuous. Qiao Mu was still a child, after all, so her body would also feel tired after a while. Hence, she was also heavily asleep currently.

Qiao Zhongbang sat alone in the darkness and used the faint light of the moon to gently survey his wife and daughters, inwardly rejoicing that their family was intact and safely together.

When Qiao Wenjuan did not return in the second half of the night, Qiao Zhongbang wondered whether his unruly sister had fallen asleep somewhere inside the forest.

When a sliver of the sun peeked out and a thread of red leaked into the dawn, a terror-stricken, horrific scream pierced through the forest and shattered the peace.

Immediately, a flock of surprised birds flew to the sky above the forest.

Qiao Mu reflexively sat up. Her eyes had ice deep inside and were devoid of any dazedness from just waking up.

Her movement was quite big and instantly jolted Wei Ziqin and Qiao Hu beside her, but the little foodie remained rigidly sound asleep.

What was more speechless was that she was still tightly hugging the peach…

Second Uncle also woke up and hastily stood up to cautiously survey their surroundings.

“Eldest Child, Second Child, that’s your sister’s scream! Hurry and take a look!” Elderly Lady Qiao fearfully yelled.

“Get in the car!” Qiao Mu picked up Xiao Lin’er and naturally stuffed her into her mother’s arms. “Quickly! Leave immediately!”

Qiao Zhongxing jumped onto the carriage in a rush but his shoulders were unexpectedly clutched in a death grip by his mother who threw herself onto him.

Elderly Lady Qiao tearfully wept. “Second Child! That’s your sister! How could you leave her to die?”

“Second Uncle, leave immediately!” Qiao Mu ripped Elderly Lady off of Second Uncle and tossed her inside the carriage, piqued.

Seeing that Elderly Lady was about to get up and make a fuss again, Qiao Mu’s eyes turned sharp, and her fierce gaze landed on her grandmother. She eerily spoke, “Grandmother, I actually don’t mind ditching you here as well and allowing your wonderful daughter and you to depend on each other for survival.”

Elderly Lady Qiao shuddered. When she looked at the pair of pitch-black eyes without any ripples, she felt like her body was pervaded with a ghostly aura.
