Chapter 680 - Believe Him! (1/2)

While Nan Zhi was partic.i.p.ating in Xiaojie’s sports day in the morning, she had asked Qiao Yanze to send a helicopter to the village.

Bai Ye followed and brought Gu Sheng and Ling’er over. On the helicopter, Bai Ye had operated on Ling’er and taken out the bullet.

That morning when Nan Zhi had received Gu Sheng’s call in the morning and learned that something had happened to Old Mr Bai, she did not expect the situation would become so serious.

Efforts to revive Old Mr Bai were futile. Even if it was Bai Ye, he was unable to bring him back from the gates of h.e.l.l.

When the shooting happened, Gu Sheng was collecting herbs on the mountain and did not know what had happened.

Nan Zhi checked them into the hotel and waited for Ling’er to wake up.

Mu Sihan called her and she lied that she was in the Qiao’s castle, because she did not know how to face him before the matter was clear.

But in her heart, she had never doubted him. She knew that he wasn’t an ungrateful man who would kill the person who had saved his life!

She knew that there were threats and coercion in his personality, but he would never never be so cruel as to kill Old Mr Bai.

Hearing Ling’er accuse of Mu Sihan, Nan Zhi’s heart pulled together tightly.

Since Ling’er was so agitated, if she defended Mu Sihan, it would only make Ling’er feel that she and Mu Sihan were on the same side.

Things had to be made clear first.

Under Gu Sheng’s comforting words, Ling’er gradually calmed down.

She allowed Gu Sheng to help her sit up and even though her wound hurt, she still gritted her teeth and looked at Nan Zhi with tear-filled eyes, saying with her voice slightly hoa.r.s.e, “Sister Nan, I know you don’t believe that it was Mr Mu, but I remember the person who shot me and Master very clearly. I can draw it for you.”

Ling’er’s long and wet eyelashes fluttered. “Brother Ah Sheng, help me get a piece of paper and pen.”

Gu Sheng frowned. “You need to rest.”

“I don’t want to rest. Once I closed my eyes, all I see is Master’s face full of blood…”

Gu Sheng understood Ling’er’s pain. He sighed and gave her a piece of paper and pen.

Ling’er’s face was pale and she clenched her teeth, drawing the portraits of the two men who had threatened Master.

Ling’er handed her finished portrait to Gu Sheng, having him pa.s.s it to Nan Zhi. “Sister Nan, the person on the right was the one who killed my Master with the gun. If I, Bai Ling’er, am lying, I am willing to be struck by lightnー”

Nan Zhi got up quickly, covering Ling’er’s mouth, her eyes wet. “Ling’er, I believe you. I believe you didn’t lie, but please believe me. I will investigate all of this properly for you.”

Taking the portrait, Nan Zhi went out of the bedroom and into the living room. She took a picture of the portrait and sent it to Qiao Yanze.

“Uncle, help me find out if these two people are working for the Fourth Prince!”

After sending the message, Nan Zhi went back into the room. Ling’er had already laid down.

The tears in her eyes were still rolling down from the corner of her eyes, soaking one corner of the pillow. She was looking at the ceiling with blank eyes, murmuring with a hoa.r.s.e voice, “b.a.s.t.a.r.ds… Those two men… in order to force my Master to develop the antidote, they drugged the food of the village head and his family, then used their lives to threaten Master.

“Master is not someone to be threatened. He took me to the village head’s house, wanting to use his own abilities to detoxify the village head’s family but those two scoundrels took the opportunity to lock me and Master inside the village head’s house.

“Sister Nan, before removing the parasite from Mr Mu, Master had already told you the aftereffects of the procedure. Why did he still come and force my Master? My Master was not able to create the antidote and one of the men took out a gun and killed Master. If Brother Gu Sheng had not arrived in time, I would have been killed too…

“Are the lives of us ordinary people so worthless in his eyes?”

Nan Zhi held Ling’er’s cold and trembling hand and her heart was extremely upset. She believed that Mu Sihan would definitely not use such cruel methods to have Old Mr Bai and Ling’er killed.
