Reincarnation: I Have Always Been Rich Novel - Chapter 371
Chapter 371: Chapter 371
“Okay.” Yuwen Jing thought for a moment. It was safer for Chen Meng’er to follow him.
When Chen Meng’er and Yuwen Jing arrived, Arthur was being held hostage by Peter’s subordinates. Peter was leaning on the person who was holding Arthur hostage. He was laughing crazily. “Haha, you didn’t expect it, right? The most capable assistant by your side is my man, right?”
Yuwen Jing looked at his father, who was being held hostage by his second uncle with a gun pointed at him. His face was ugly, and his hands were tightly clenched. He could only rely on this to control the violence in his heart. He wanted to rush up and tear his second uncle apart.
“I didn’t expect you to have such great ability to actually plant such a chess piece by my side.” Arthur’s face was not any better. No matter who was betrayed by the person he trusted the most, his mood would not be good.
“Haha, who asked me to be a loser in your eyes?” Peter was completely thinking of dying together with Arthur. He saw Yuwen Jing. “Xibo, ever since you were born, I have never given you a gift. Today, I will give you a gift. I hope you like it.” As he said this, Peter pressed the muzzle of the gun against Arthur’s temple.
When Yuwen Jing saw this scene, his eyes turned red. he shouted, “No.” He was about to rush forward.
Just as Yuwen Jing took his first step, he was pulled back by Chen Meng’er. At this moment, if Yuwen Jing rushed forward, his father Arthur would only end up with a bullet in his head. “Yuwen, calm down. If you go up now, there will only be one consequence. You know it yourself,” Chen Meng’er said in a low voice.
Yuwen Jing’s last bit of rationality was pulled back by Chen Meng’er’s words. He stood still and stared unblinkingly at the muzzle of the gun pressed against his father’s temple.
For the first time, Chen Meng’er regretted that she had not shot Peter in a moment of weakness and left such a scourge behind. Her heart was not as calm as she looked on the surface. Her heart was filled with worry and fear. She was wondering if history was history. No matter how she tried, she could not change it. Was it because of this tragedy, this shadow that had been left in Yuwen Jing’s heart for a lifetime would still be the same as in her previous life and follow Yuwen Jing for a lifetime?
At the thought of this, Chen Meng’er’s lips were tightly pursed. She looked at Yuwen Jing’s no longer expressionless face and secretly clenched her fists in her heart. Since God had allowed her to be reborn, then regardless of history, she would change it.
Peter was still arrogantly saying something, and Chen Meng’er had no time to care about this. Her eyes were fixed on Peter’s hand that was holding the gun, and Arthur’s left and right hands that were tightly holding Arthur. The silver needles in her hands were tightly held by her. She was looking for acupuncture points that could allow her to control the other party’s vital vessels in a short period of time.
“Haha, to be able to die together with you, the things I prepared were not in vain. With you accompanying me, I am also very satisfied.” Peter was a little crazy, his index finger was already placed on the wrench of the gun in his hand. Seeing Peter’s action, Yuwen Jing’s heart was in his throat.
Yuwen Jing was prepared, ready to make a move at any time.
And the one who was one step ahead of Yuwen Jing was Chen Meng’er. When Chen Meng’er saw Peter’s index finger placed on the wrench of the gun, she knew that it was the critical moment. The silver needles in her left and right hands flew out with a whoosh, they flew out of her hands. No one noticed Chen Meng’er’s actions. No one knew what had happened until Peter and the person who had kidnapped Arthur let out a wail and collapsed.
Everyone looked at the person who had been standing there a second ago, ready to die together with his family. Now, he was lying on the ground. They were dumbfounded. They had no idea what had happened.
Not only them, even Arthur, who was the closest to Peter and his subordinates and thought that he would definitely die this time, was also stunned by this unexpected turn of events.
…
“Uncle Arthur, how long are you going to stay there and not let anyone tie him up?” Chen Meng’er looked at the two people who had fallen to the ground and heaved a sigh of relief. At the same time, her tense nerves… could finally relax. She was very well known for coating these two silver needles with the knockout drug she had developed. This way, similar things would not happen again.
“Meng’er.” Yuwen Jing turned his head to look at Chen Meng’er. His eyes were terrifyingly bright.
“Ah, Yuwen, don’t look at me like that. I’ll be shy.” Chen Meng’er’s face unconsciously turned red when the person she had a crush on in her previous life looked at her like that. In this world, probably only Yuwen Jing had the ability to make Chen Meng’er blush.
“Thank you, Meng’er.” Yuwen Jing had seen Chen Meng’er throw needles before. Although he didn’t see Chen Meng’er make a move, he knew that Peter and the others suddenly fell to the ground and couldn’t get up. It was Chen Meng’er.
“Aiya, Yuwen, if you’re so polite with me, I’ll be embarrassed. Ah, I’m sleepy. I’m going back to sleep.”
“Okay, let’s go back and rest.” Yuwen Jing looked at Chen Meng’er with a loving and doting gaze.
Yuwen Jing held Chen Meng’er’s hand and got into his black Rolls-Royce. Then, without saying goodbye to his father, Arthur, the two of them left.
Arthur, who had just experienced a life-and-death situation, saw that his son had a girl and forgot about his father’s stance. He smiled and shook his head. However, he was quite happy for his son. He had found someone he wanted to spend his life with so early.
As for him, the person he wanted to spend his life with had left him long ago.
