Everyone watched as he left.

However, the subtle and indescribable atmosphere was even stronger than before.

Bo Jinchuan sat there motionless, his lips pursed into a thin line.

Shen Fanxing held the apple that he had just handed to her. The juice flowed from her fingers, but she didn’t know what to say.

If it were anything else, she might be able to think of a solution or know how to ease the atmosphere.

However, this time, she was at a loss.

Relationships had never been her strong suit.

She could tell Qi Mohan’s emotions just now. She didn’t know how to pretend not to see it.

She didn’t know how to face Qi Mohan or how to explain to Bo Jinchuan.

He had made a solemn vow just now.

She didn’t want to hurt Qi Mohan.

But she had no idea what to do now.

Looking down at the apple in her hand, she subconsciously took a bite. Her expression had yet to recover.

Her mind was filled with the expression she had never seen on Qi Mohan’s face before.

Bo Jinchuan glanced at her from the corner of his eyes. He was certain that there was no trace of him in her expression.

Her heart skipped a beat.

She had only said that to make Qi Mohan give up on her.

But now, it seemed to have backfired.

“What are you thinking about?”

Hearing the man’s deep and cold voice, Shen Fanxing blinked and glanced at him with a complicated expression.

Bo Jinchuan’s face darkened.

Placing the apple on the coffee table, she took out a tissue and curled up on the sofa.

“Nothing… on my mind.”

In this world, there were always some things that you couldn’t come up with a perfect answer even if you spent time thinking about it.

Not even if it was perfect.

The only answer was how selfish she was…

Bo Jinchuan looked at her quietly for a while. Even though he knew that she wasn’t calm, he didn’t know what to say.

After a long while, he stood up and instructed Yu Song calmly.

“Get ready. We’ll return to the city tomorrow.”

“Yes!”

Yu Song hurriedly responded. Seeing the cold atmosphere in front of him, he paused and said,

“Master, what arrangements do we have for Miss Yuan?”

Bo Jinchuan pondered for a while before saying calmly,

“Dead.”

Yu Song looked up at Shen Fanxing before agreeing.

“Got it.”

–

Yuan Sichun was dead.

She died in the gray area on the border of Ping Cheng that everyone avoided.

When Shen Fanxing and the rest returned to Ping Cheng City the next day, the news had already spread like wildfire.

“He actually died! Serves him right! He’s not a good person to begin with!”

“Hahaha, the heavens have never spared anyone. Not only did she fail to kidnap others, but she was also killed by the thugs there! How satisfying!”

“What is this called? You deserve it!”

“How dare she bring people to such a place? If she doesn’t die, who will? It’s good that she’s dead! There’s one less scourge in this world.”

No one sympathized with Yuan Sichun’s death.

Because she had already degraded her life to the most worthless state.

If you don’t know how to respect others, don’t expect them to disrespect you.

It was her fault for kidnapping someone and disregarding their lives. Now that she was dead, how could she deserve sympathy?

Shen Fanxing didn’t expect Bo Jinchuan to blow things up.

She thought that it would only happen if someone asked.

However, it was obvious that Bo Jinchuan had blown things up on purpose.

Shen Fanxing didn’t know what he wanted to do, but she couldn’t be bothered.

With him around, she didn’t have to worry about the aftermath.

Except…

After killing Yuan Sichun, there was a second Yuan Sichun…

–

Not long after they returned, Ji Fengmian and the rest were confirmed to be safe and sound. Yuan Zhengchong and Ye Zhiqing immediately paid them a visit.

The Bo family’s old residence was surrounded by the media and the Yuan family. Old Master Bo called Bo Jinchuan and Shen Fanxing back.

At this moment, the Bo family was in a mess. Ye Zhiqing was sitting in the courtyard of the Bo residence with her hair disheveled. She was holding a newspaper and crying.

The old man stood at the side with his walking stick. His face was ashen and his muscles trembled from time to time.

When she saw the two of them being escorted by bodyguards, she glared at them.

When Ye Zhiqing saw the two of them, she immediately got up and rushed to Bo Jinchuan.

“Tell me! Where did you put my daughter? How could she be dead? Did you hide her?!”

Ye Zhiqing was stopped two meters away by two bodyguards. “Bo Jinchuan, return my daughter to me! Beast! How did my daughter let you down? You’re actually so heartless to her!”

Shen Fanxing frowned. Indeed, she couldn’t bear to see Bo Jinchuan being ‘bullied’.

“Your daughter is already dead.” She stabbed Ye Zhiqing with the simplest words.

Ye Zhiqing suddenly raised her head and glared at her. Her furious expression was exactly the same as Yuan Sichun’s.

“All of you…”

“That’s right, it’s me.”

She admitted calmly that her indifferent attitude towards a life was hard to distinguish.

“If possible, I want to feed her a few more bullets now. I shouldn’t have let her die so easily!”

Ye Zhiqing swayed and her vision turned upside down. She almost fainted.

“You…”

“I’ve always told you not to provoke me. If no one offends me, we’ll live our own lives. Before you come here to look for the Bo family, you have to know that she was the one who kidnapped my mother first.

I wasn’t the one who asked her to go to that kind of place. There was nothing wrong with it. She brought my mother there and lured me there. Her original intention was to take our lives. Now, she has only suffered the consequences.”

His words made everyone present speechless.

Ye Zhiqing’s expression was terrifying.

Her pale lips trembled as she stared at something.

The pain of losing her son was not faked, but this was not the reason why she needed to pity her.

“Is she really dead? Did you really kill her?”

Ye Zhiqing still couldn’t accept the reality. After all, she hadn’t seen it with her own eyes. Now that they were standing here, it didn’t make sense that something had happened to her daughter.

“Jingchuan, she won’t, right? No matter how wrong she is, it’s because she likes you, right? You grew up with her. You won’t watch her get beaten to death, right?”

Bo Jinchuan said coldly, “She deserves to die.”

“Nothing happened between the two of you… Even if you wanted to punish her, why did you kill her…”

“Mrs Yuan, your daughter is the one who dragged me onto the battlefield. If she doesn’t die, the ones who die will be my mother and me! You’d better understand the pros and cons of this.”
