67: I Won’t Let Anything Happen to You

I Won’t Let Anything Happen to You

Qu Wan realized that things might have gone array from the sudden change of Ling Yuqing's face. "What happened?"0

"Kang Shao's hands got chopped off, and he's in the hospital now going through surgery!" Ling Yuqing looked startled and terrified. She didn't expect things would turn out like that. She was waiting for the news of Ling Tianya being destroyed, instead she got the news of Kang Shao's hands being chopped off.

What did Ling Tianya do? Ling Yuqing was hit by a sense of terror that was beyond her imagination.

She picked up her phone and dialed Xin Xin again. No answer.

"Mom, Xin Xin is not picking up either. Something must have happened! What should we do now?" Ling Yuqing was panicking. Things were heading the opposite direction of what she expected. More importantly, she had absolutely no idea of what had happened.

"Don't panic. Things already happened, so panicking is not going to help." Qu Wan seemed much calmer. After all, she was more experienced.

She knew that the situation they found themselves in was suboptimal. "Kang Shao's hands were off chopped for a reason. The number one priority right now is to find out what actually happened."

"Yes, yes! I'm going to the hospital right now!" Ling Yuqing almost walked out the door before her mother stopped her.

"Are you stupid? If you show up at the hospital now, isn't it obvious to Ling Tianya that you and Kang Shao are connected?"

"Then what should I do?" Ling Yuqing didn't really care about Kang Shao's hands, but if the Kang Family found out that he lost his hands because he was helping her, they would make her pay. 

Qu Wan recognized the seriousness of the situation. She tried to regain some focus, "Don't worry, let's stay in the hotel for the time being. Nothing has actually happened as far as we're concerned, other than the fact that we know Kang Shao's hands were chopped off. Ling Tianya has not come looking for us, which means we are still safe. I suspect that Ling Tianya may not even know we're involved."

"You're right, mom!" Nodded Ling Yuqing. "But what should we do about Kang Shao?"

Qu Wan thought about it for a second, "Don't you worry. It could be that his hands had nothing to do with what we're doing. Just in case, we should be prepared. I'm going to contact the Mr. Bai and ask him to help sort it out. At the end of the day, mom won't let anything happen to you!"

After the reassurance from Qu Wan, Ling Yuqing felt much better. Mr. Bai was there to help them, so there shouldn't be a problem.

"Mr. Bai has been quite loyal to us, hasn't him? He has done a lot for us all these years." Ling Yuqing smiled as she started to recover from the nerve-racking moment earlier.

Qu Wan didn't respond. She had faith in Mr. Bai's ability to handle Kang Shao's affair. What she didn't have much faith in was Ling Tianya. She and Ling Yuqing got in trouble on multiple occasions thanks to Ling Tianya. Although every time they were able to finagle their way out, it had made Qu Wan rethink her strategy towards the girl. 

"I think for the time being, we should hold off on sabotaging Ling Tianya. That girl has some tricks up her sleeves." said Qu Wan with a sour expression.

"Are we going to keep living in the hotel? Can you be content with that, mom?" Obviously, Ling Yuqing couldn't be. 

Qu Wan was not pleased to hear that subject mentioned. Her face darkened as she spoke, "There are other ways for us to go home. The bottom line is to keep away from Ling Tianya for now. Besides, even if we take it easy on her, there will be other people who find her disagreeable."
