Chapter 1719: Beiping Old Dreams: The Beauty Performer Suppresses the Big Shot 34

~6 min read 1,021 words

Chu Wu's temper flared, but he still retained a trace of reason, only letting his subordinates seize Wei Er and Zao Liang Hai Dou and bring them back, preparing to return and ask his father the Marshal how to concretely resolve it.

As for Chu San, his original plan was to settle accounts after capturing him alive, but who would have thought that Jin Chen's kick would directly kick the person to death.

Chu Wu expressed deep sorrow over this, and additionally kicked two more times to show respect for his elder brother.

After coming out of the basement again, everyone involved in this plan had been dealt with more or less, leaving only Xiao Bo Feng, who had been driven down to the fourth floor.

Everyone surrounded them on the first floor, coldly watching the already cornered Xiao Bo Feng and his thugs behind him.

"Sure enough, it's like this.."

Xiao Bo Feng stood at the stairwell entrance, the last shred of hope in his heart also shattered.

He grabbed Xu Nanchun tightly, raised his hand and slapped her, nearly hysterical: "You're really deceiving me! You're helping outsiders deceive me! Are you crazy!?"

Clearly the plan should have been flawless; once Wei Er obtained the antique, he could openly support the Xiao family, and afterward he could replace Pei Yinnian as the top businessman in Beiping.

How could it end like this!

"Xiao Bo Feng! Let go of the person quickly, or I'll shoot you dead!" Chu Wu shouted angrily from downstairs.

Pei Yiqing hid behind Jin Chen's shoulder, frowning as he watched this scene, seeing Xu Nanchun's face rapidly losing color, her eyes filled with disappointment and tangled complexity.

Strangely, Xu Nanchun seemed to sense something, turning her already numb pupils to look downstairs, and made eye contact with Pei Yiqing.

Pei Yiqing instinctively opened his mouth, originally wanting to tell Xu Nanchun not to be afraid, that Fifth Master could rescue her, but upon seeing Xu Nanchun's eyes already dark and lightless, he couldn't say anything.

Their conversation still rang in his ears; no matter how much Xu Nanchun had been lying to buy time back then, there was one thing Pei Yiqing felt he had not lied about.

He truly loved Xiao Bo Feng.

Chu Wu had already raised his gun, aiming it at Xiao Bo Feng: "Your damn grandpa made me unnecessarily go through this, and I lost so many brothers—I'll destroy you!"

Xiao Bo Feng's face was deathly pale, just about to beg for a last shred of life by threatening Xu Nanchun, who had helped them, but the blade tip was already at Xu Nanchun's neck, and Xiao Bo Feng suddenly heard that all-too-familiar voice softly speak.

"Two years...... Xiao Bo Feng, I spent two years accepting that you fundamentally don't love me."

Xu Nanchun couldn't control her body; everything around seemed to be torn apart, tearing her consciousness and pain.

Xiao Bo Feng was somewhat stiff, as if wanting to say something, but ultimately couldn't utter a word.

In his peripheral vision, he saw Chu Wu already firing the gun; Xu Nanchun instinctively embraced Xiao Bo Feng, blocking the bullet amid the surprised cries from downstairs.

Struck squarely in the heart.

"Damn it!" Chu Wu didn't fire a second shot, "Your grandma's! You're crazy!"

His shot was calculated to be able to directly kill Xiao Bo Feng!

Xiao Bo Feng stared down in shock, seeing Xu Nanchun limp and powerless in his arms, and furthermore...

Accompanying the gunshot, a dagger plunged into his own chest.

"You..."

Xiao Bo Feng then collapsed, warm liquid slowly seeping from his skin, as if all his blood were draining out.

"How tragic......" Xu Nanchun bit her lip, feeling her vitality fade drop by drop, trembling as she raised her hand to lightly touch Xiao Bo Feng's face, "I love you, yet I don't want to be a traitor......"

"Having me kill you would be... much better than dying at their hands......"

"If... if possible......"

Xu Nanchun spat out a mouthful of blood violently, her final words unfinished, the back of her head heavily striking the stairs.

If possible, that butterfly dream you took a liking to two years ago, I would rather never have sung it.

Let us remember only the affinity, not the grudge.

Xiao Bo Feng gave a dry, ragged breath, unable to summon any strength to respond, his head tilting as he lost consciousness.

Pei Yiqing looked on in shock as the soldiers charged up the stairs, his expression turning blank.

Jin Chen withdrew his gaze, pinching Pei Yiqing's cheek, "Are you possessed?"

"Why..." Pei Yiqing gazed blankly at Jin Chen, "Sister-in-law, why did Xu Nanchun help him block the bullet, and even kill him?"

Jin Chen thought of Xu Nanchun's despair on the fourth floor, his clear voice carrying deep meaning.

"Probably it's hatred for Xiao Bo Feng, and also hatred for myself still loving him."

Who knows after all this hatred?

Feelings and hatred are inherently complex.

Jin Chen turned around, walked toward the casino's main gate, and stepped out of the clamor.

Beiping's spring grew ever warmer, the air filled with a lingering gunpowder-smelling restlessness.

Various reporters eager to know what had happened crowded the entrance, seeing Xiao Bo Feng's corpse reveal a look of surprise, modern cameras click-click, capturing every angle of the casino.

Rickshaw pullers waited outside, nervously rubbing their hands and peeking out while shouting whether anyone wanted a ride, not daring to make too much noise.

Swallows flew in, paused, tilted their heads, and emitted chirps, revealing the instinctive alertness of animals facing danger.

Jin Chen bought a string of candied haws, and idly watching from the stall not far away, he saw Chu Wu harried and overwhelmed handling aftermath, saw Yun Cunxuan being led away by a doctor, and saw Pei Yiqing turn his head to look for him.

Hmm, during the first hour after his wife left, he thought of her.

【......】 I still thought you'd have something to sigh about.

Ling Gun Gun had grown accustomed to it, 【Host! I want to eat too~】
