Chapter 336: Chapter 336: Someone Wants to Kill Me
“You’ve already beaten him up,” Lu Jingzhi reminded him.
Lu Zhanxing: “That was a beating? That was barely a tickle. A real beating would leave him half-paralyzed.”
For the first time, Lu Jingzhi realized that his younger brother could be quite fierce when angry.

Lu Zhanxing now found everything about Lu Jingzhi uncomfortable; he felt like he couldn’t breathe or swallow.
His sister wasn’t resentful, but he felt resentful on her behalf.
“How is Mom doing?” Lu Jingzhi changed the subject.
Lu Zhanxing replied somberly, “Dad is with her. It will probably take some time for her to recover.”
After saying this, the two fell silent.
This incident had dealt a heavy blow to the family, and not only their mother, but they also needed time to soothe their emotions.
Undeniably, this family would no longer be as cheerful and laughing as before.
The guilt towards Qiao Yun deeply enveloped them.
“I’m going to the old house; are you coming, Second Brother?”
Qiao Yun’s faint voice timely interrupted their thoughts.
Lu Zhanxing forced a smile: “I’d better not go.”
He wanted to go, but he feared that he might not be able to stop himself from killing Qin Huan if he saw her.
Qiao Yun nodded: “Okay then.”
She saw that Lu Zhanxing was unhappy, so she wanted to take him out to get some fresh air.
“I’ll stay for a few more days this time. Sister, you’ve got to keep me company.”
Lu Zhanxing tried to look relaxed, but the fatigue in his eyes was undeniable.
Qiao Yun scrutinized his expression, “Okay, I’ll keep you company.”
Second Brother was unhappy, and she wanted to cheer him up.
With his sister’s reply, Lu Zhanxing genuinely smiled.
Lu Jingzhi stood there, watching their close interaction, feeling like an outsider.
But with things as they were, what right did he have to blame Qiao Yun for being too cold and not reciprocating his friendliness?
The fact that she hadn’t completely distanced herself from him was already a fortunate outcome amidst misfortune.
Lu Jingzhi’s throat was dry and rough; he regretted.
If only he could trust and adore her unconditionally like Zhanxing, perhaps their relationship wouldn’t have deteriorated to this point.
…
Qiao Yun sat in the car, pondered for a moment, then called Li Hanzhou.
“Young friend, how come you have time to call Grandpa today?”
The man’s casual and pleasant voice came through from the other end of the line.
Qiao Yun’s ears tickled uncomfortably, and she rubbed them before honestly telling him, “Lu Ting was driven away.”
The car accident was something Li Hanzhou had investigated, and Qiao Yun thought she should update him on the progress.
“Oh, they finally came to their senses,” he said.
Li Hanzhou thought back to when Lu Zhanxing had called him about Qiao Yun’s situation, guessing that the entire Lu Family was likely having a tough time now.
Thinking so, he felt somewhat pleased.
Li Hanzhou, indeed, derived joy from others’ suffering, especially since he didn’t like the Lu Family members.
They were not good enough for the young friend.
Li Hanzhou chuckled, “Are you happy with this outcome?”
“Happy,” Qiao Yun thought, the original owner would probably be happy.
“If you’re happy, I’m happy,” Li Hanzhou said playfully, changing the subject, “The car accident issue is settled, what are you planning to do next?”
Qiao Yun said, “I’m thinking about one thing.”
“What thing?”
“Intentional murder carries many years of sentence.”
“Death penalty, life imprisonment, or ten years and above in fixed-term imprisonment, lighter cases get less than ten years,” Li Hanzhou asked teasingly, “Are you planning to kill someone?”
Qiao Yun instinctively shook her head, then remembering Li Hanzhou couldn’t see her, she spoke up, “I’m not killing anyone, but someone wants to kill me.”
Li Hanzhou: “…???”
