Chapter 1230: An old married couple showing off their affection, even the children can't stand it

Now, anyone with a discerning eye can see that Shi Youxuan sending gifts was just a pretext; her true purpose was to find someone!

"This is too bullying! A mere small-time merchant, and they actually dare to bully you?" Qi Heng's subordinate, unable to stomach it, prepared to step forward to stop them and reason.

Qi Heng signaled with his eyes not to bother.

Let her look, let her look all she wants; if she can find the person, he will admit defeat!

In fact, Qi Heng had almost brought Ji Yingjie onto the plane to take her to L Country together.

But after careful consideration, he ultimately abandoned that idea.

The couple from the Sheng Family had already set their sights on him, and there was no guarantee they wouldn't pull something on the plane.

And he really did guess right; here came Shi Youxuan.

Shi Youxuan searched a circle, meticulously, not letting go of any corner.

Unfortunately, let alone a living person, she didn't even find a single item belonging to her aunt!

She was very disappointed, but since she had to play the part to the end, the superficial concern still had to be shown.

She walked down the boarding stairs and shook hands with Qi Heng to say goodbye: "Have a safe trip!"

As soon as the words fell, someone suddenly darted out quickly from behind Qi Heng, a flash of light appeared, and they stabbed toward Qi Heng's back!

"Watch out."

Shi Youxuan screamed while simultaneously pulling him hard.

Before Qi Heng could react to what was happening, he was pulled away from his original position; the stab missed, and it didn't hit him.

The assailant turned the blade to continue the assassination, but having lost the initiative, they were quickly subdued by Qi Heng's bodyguards!

The assassin's hat fell off during the struggle, revealing a head of long hair; it was a woman.

Although this woman had smeared something on her face to make her skin look dark, her features were still easily recognizable—Liu Min!

"You have such big guts? You actually dare to run to Jiangzhou to assassinate me?" Qi Heng sneered and had people take her away.

He had been worrying about not being able to find her, and she had delivered herself to his doorstep.

Liu Min was wearing an airport staff uniform; without asking, one knew that in some corner of the airport, a real staff member must have fainted or...

"You cannot take her away," Shi Youxuan said, sitting on the ground.

She had used too much force just now, and with a "crack," she had sprained her ankle; it was incredibly painful.

This time, Qi Heng did not agree: "I won't trouble you with this; the assassin came for me, and besides, she is a person from our L Country, so of course I must take her away."

Shi Youxuan still wanted to stop him, but she was alone and weak, and she did not succeed; she could only watch helplessly as Liu Min was taken onto the plane by Qi Heng.

Hospital.

Shi Youxuan sat on the hospital bed, hugging her husband's waist and wailing: "It hurts so much, my foot hurts so much!"

The children stood in a row beside the hospital bed; except for Litian, the remaining children all showed expressions of contempt.

Isn't this too fake?

Just now, before Dad arrived, Mom was as strong as a warrior, chatting and laughing with them, talking eloquently about her heroic deeds at the airport just now.

But as soon as Dad arrived, the female warrior instantly transformed into someone weak and unable to care for herself.

She wailed dryly for a long time, but there wasn't a single tear.

Sheng Hanyu doted on her, holding his wife and comforting her softly: "I know you're in pain, you've suffered. In the future, don't get involved in such dangerous things; how could Qi Heng's life be more important than my wife's foot?"

The children were speechless.

Is it really necessary?

Old married couple, yet they still have to be this mushy; no one else's parents are like their mom and dad.

Sheng Zichen spoke without restraint: "It's a waste of talent for Mom to be a housewife at home; you should go be an actress. The Oscars owe you a golden statue."

Shi Ran added a finishing blow: "One golden statue isn't enough. If Mom were an actress, she would have been a Best Actress long ago. She acts like whatever she plays; back then, we wouldn't just be rich kids, we'd be celebrity kids."

Zirui: "If that were the case, the company wouldn't need to pay high prices to hire celebrities for endorsements; we could just use Mom, saving costs."

Zihan, who had always been good at invisible flattery, broke from the norm this time and did not flatter Mom, choosing instead to stand on the same front as the siblings: "Right, this is called keeping the benefits within the family. Mom's skills... tsk tsk, only performing in front of Dad is a waste."

Only Litian watched quietly, without expressing any opinion.

Shi Youxuan poked her head out from her husband's embrace and stopped her dry wailing.

She glared at the children and threatened them bluntly: "Are your skins itching? If you're looking for a beating, just say so, and I'll grant your wish."

Zichen grinned: "Oh, Mother has become angry from embarrassment!"

Shi Ran gave the order: "Run!" And so, the children all ran away laughing.

They ran quite fast, not giving Shi Youxuan any chance to continue her threats!

"Bratty kids," Shi Youxuan cursed, then thought about it and laughed.

Actually, she couldn't blame the children; she was a bit oblivious to the occasion.

The children were all grown up; in the future, when she wanted to act spoiled with her husband, she would have to do it behind their backs.

Disturbed by the children like this, Shi Youxuan no longer had the mood to continue acting spoiled, so she brought up the serious matter.

"Liu Min is a bit off."

Sheng Hanyu: "What's off? She has always had an impulsive personality; it's not strange that she would do something like this."

Shi Youxuan: "Look, quite a few things have happened during this period, but there has been no news of Liu Min. Where did she go?"

"Also, although she has an impulsive personality, her appearing at the airport to assassinate today was beyond my expectations."

Reminded by his wife, Sheng Hanyu also realized that it was indeed off.

Liu Min was bold, but her intelligence was not very high, and the biggest characteristic of her personality was that she lacked subtlety.

Airport security was extremely strict; to be able to sneak behind Qi Heng to assassinate him under the eyes of so many people and surveillance, and almost succeed!

It was impossible to say there was no one behind the scenes directing her.

Liu Min could not have come up with such a meticulous plan.

Who could be the person instigating her from behind the scenes?

The couple's eyes lit up, and they spoke at the same time: "Zhu Qingrui!"

That's right, it must be him.

Wang Yong investigated and found that Liu Quan and Zhu Qingrui were colluding; since Liu Min is Liu Quan's daughter, it is not strange that she would be with Zhu Qingrui.

Having guessed the truth of the matter, Shi Youxuan felt even more regretful.

She was incredibly regretful: "Oh, it's all my fault, it's all my fault. Such a good opportunity was actually missed by me. Qi Heng must have realized that catching Liu Min would lead to Zhu Qingrui, yet I actually let her go..."

Her husband held her to comfort her: "Alright, don't dwell on it anymore. Being in a bad mood is no good for your foot injury recovery. We can discuss this matter at length later..."

Just as they were speaking, the door opened.

Several children were preparing to enter, but as soon as they opened the door, they saw their parents still showing affection.

"Sorry, we interrupted."

"You two are endless."

"Mom and Dad are true love; the rest of us were just free gifts for topping up our phone credit."

"Run!"

Before Sheng Hanyu's sharp, blade-like glare could arrive, the children quickly retreated again.

L Country.

Zhu Family Castle.

The place has taken on a brand-new look and has already been renovated.

But the specifications of the Dungeon have not changed, and Liu Min is locked in the Water Prison.

Having only been inside for two hours, her body is already covered in wounds, filled with bloody welts from whip lashes.

The whip used here to beat people is specially made; it looks ordinary, but it has barbs on it, and the process of pulling it back after every lash is even more painful than the first!
