The Young Master's Escaping Bride Who Lost Memories-Chapter 266 - 268 [268] I Want You to Kill Him Yourself 4
Everyone present turned pale.
Liang Shaochen tightened his jaw, a mocking smile on his lips.
"Nangong Yaoling, I thought you always acted honorably. If you want me dead, it’s easy, but why force a weak woman?"
"Hmph——" Nangong Yaoling scoffed:
"Liang Shaochen, the more you say that, the more it makes me doubt your relationship. Your life isn’t worth much, you should know that. What I want isn’t just your life!"
As he spoke, Nangong Yaoling personally loaded the gun with a click. 𝘧𝓇𝑒𝑒𝑤ℯ𝑏𝓃𝘰𝑣ℯ𝘭.𝘤ℴ𝘮
He then grabbed Xia Xiaonuan’s hand, placing the cold, heavy handgun steadily in her palm.
At that moment, Xia Xiaonuan felt her heart sink to the bottom.
Nearby, Mrs. Smith leaned against the bookshelf, face pale as a ghost.
The air fell silent, so quiet that even the sound of the wind outside could be heard.
A gust of cold wind swept across their faces, the moisture making them shiver involuntarily.
Xia Xiaonuan gripped the cold, hard handgun, her fingers trembling.
Hot breath brushed her ear.
A hoarse, deeply toned voice whispered in her ear: "Darling, hold it steady, be careful not to set it off..."
Xia Xiaonuan bit down hard on her lower lip.
A sudden urge flashed through her mind, to aim the gun at Nangong Yaoling.
However, the thought was swiftly dragged back by reason.
Who is Nangong Yaoling? Since he dared to give her the gun, he knew she wouldn’t do it.
Firstly, with so many bodyguards, she couldn’t hurt Nangong Yaoling.
Secondly, if she killed Nangong Yaoling, countless others would follow him to the grave.
The stakes were too high.
She couldn’t afford to play; she didn’t have the courage to play.
Her gaze turned to Liang Shaochen, whose brows were knit tightly, and tears spilled from Xia Xiaonuan’s eyes.
Suddenly, she broke free from Nangong Yaoling and took a step back.
She raised the gun, pointing the barrel at her own temple.
"Nangong Yaoling, this all started because of me. Why involve the innocent?"
"If Mr. Liang hadn’t saved me yesterday, I wouldn’t be standing here now."
"Xia Xiaonuan, there are twenty cannons outside. If you dare pull the trigger, I’ll have everything here obliterated immediately!"
"You..."
"Be good, put the gun down," Nangong Yaoling narrowed his eyes, looking at Xia Xiaonuan.
"No... I don’t want to die..." Mrs. Smith looked at Xia Xiaonuan in terror.
Xia Xiaonuan saw the pleading look in Mrs. Smith’s eyes.
And then she saw Nangong Yaoling’s cold, unwavering gaze.
She knew Nangong Yaoling wasn’t joking.
The gun she raised over her head slowly drooped.
Tears streamed from her eyes.
To kill Liang Shaochen with her own hands was worse than being skinned alive.
Xia Xiaonuan glared at Nangong Yaoling with hatred.
At this moment, she wished she could shoot this man full of holes!
"My patience... is limited!" Nangong Yaoling suddenly raised his hand.
"Boom——" A cannon fired, and a corner of the house was instantly blown up, half of the roof lifted.
"Ah——uh——" Mrs. Smith screamed in shock and fainted on the spot.
Smoke and fire rose behind.
The few people standing there seemed like statues. Motionless.
