Chapter 599: Chapter 599: Misfortune
Every time everything is about to end, new trouble arrives.
And this time, it even involves a life.
Gu Ningyue thought of visiting Mr. Chen again, but this time she wanted to ask him why she was constantly plagued by troubles. Whom exactly had she offended?
Soon, when the car arrived near the entrance of the kindergarten, Gu Ningyue asked the driver to park the car hidden under the shade of a tree.
It was just the time when all the students were being dismissed. Gu Ningyue turned her head to Ling Tianyou beside her and said, "You stay here! I’ll go down by myself."
Ling Tianyou shook his head, "No, I’ll go down with you."
Gu Ningyue smiled and said to Ling Tianyou, "If you go down, it’s too conspicuous. The renowned Master Ling personally coming to pick someone up, who would dare to act up in front of you? Let me go!"
Although Ling Tianyou understood the reason, he still felt uneasy thinking about the previous encounter between Gu Ningyue and Nan Shaoyue: "Be careful and don’t try to be a hero. It doesn’t matter if we can’t catch him this time; I’ll have other ways. You understand?"
Gu Ningyue nodded in response, soothingly patting Ling Tianyou’s hand, "Don’t worry, I will."
Hearing this, Ling Tianyou finally let Gu Ningyue leave, though the worry in his eyes did not lessen a bit.
Lately, things have been chaotic at home and outside; having lost one brother already, he couldn’t allow Gu Ningyue to get hurt as well.
Having arranged people to ambush around, Ling Tianyou stood straight, his eyes fixed firmly on the direction of the kindergarten, not daring to relax at all.
After a while, parents gradually brought their children out, but Gu Ningyue with Ling Xuan was nowhere to be seen in his sight.
"What’s going on? Everyone’s gone, why haven’t Xuanxuan and Ning Yue come out yet?"
The driver turned around, looking at Ling Tianyou, "President Ling, should I get out and have a look?"
Ling Tianyou hesitated for a moment, just about to speak when the driver suddenly said, "President Ling, look towards the east! Someone’s coming!"
Upon hearing this, Ling Tianyou followed the direction the driver pointed out and indeed saw a man in a black hoodie walking over.
But he was wearing a mask, making it impossible to see his face, the only visible thing was that he was very tall and strong, and walked with a sway as if he were drunk.
And just at this moment, the small figure of Ling Xuan stepped out, standing at the entrance of the kindergarten, without Gu Ningyue by his side.
Ling Xuan looked around, seemingly waiting for someone to arrive.
However, probably not seeing any familiar face, Ling Xuan turned around and began to call inside, likely for a familiar teacher from the kindergarten.
At this moment, the man in the black hoodie suddenly approached Ling Xuan, and Ling Tianyou’s heart seemed to be grasped by a big hand instantly. Just as he was about to instruct someone to seize him, a lively figure already, unbeknownst to him, grabbed the man’s wrist first.
The two exchanged some words and then began to fight instantly.
Gu Ningyue shielded Ling Xuan, moving so swiftly that it amazed people, leaving no chance for the people Ling Tianyou arranged to act. Within moments, she captured the man in the black hoodie.
"Let me go! Are you crazy or something, woman? I’m going to sue you for attacking me in public!"
The man struggled a couple of times, only to find that his strength was no match for the woman in front of him.
He seemed to have some force holding him tightly, making it impossible to break free!
What’s happening? The one who usually picks up Ling Xuan isn’t Ling Tianze’s wife but this woman suddenly? Was the intelligence given to him incorrect?
Having no time to ponder further, Gu Ningyue’s cool voice already sounded in his ear, "What are you thinking about? Accusing you of attacking in public is most appropriate for someone like you. After all, people like you are only involved in these unrighteous businesses, right?"
As she spoke, Gu Ningyue handed the lollipop she had just snatched from him to his face, "This candy has been laced with sedatives, hasn’t it? Where did you plan to take Ling Xuan? To whom were you going to hand him over?"
The man immediately retorted after hearing this, "Don’t slander me, I haven’t done anything! You are defaming me!"
Gu Ningyue sneered, her gaze shifting to the frightened Ling Xuan who was now taken away, before turning back to look at the man in front of her, "Whether it’s defamation will be known with a police examination. If you don’t want to spend your life in prison, you’d better tell me who’s behind you. If I’m in a good mood, I might let you have a way out!"
The man stared into Gu Ningyue’s eyes, which didn’t have the tenderness and brightness a girl should have but a chilling sharpness that made people tremble.
And at this moment, a tall man slowly walked over, looking at Gu Ningyue, "Ning Yue, you’ve worked hard."
No need to say, everyone knew who this person was.
The man finally grew a bit fearful, as the well-known Master Ling isn’t someone he can provoke!
But under the current circumstances, would they really believe him even if he told them?
"What? You don’t want to speak?" Gu Ningyue sneered at the man, "Do you know that it’s not difficult to make someone like you disappear from this world? If you’re smart, you’ll tell me who’s behind you! Otherwise, believe it or not, next month’s headline will be about your body found dead on the street?"
Gu Ningyue’s voice carried a certain intimidation, which made the man who was shouting earlier shrink his neck, seemingly genuinely afraid of this young woman in front of him.
Ling Tianyou, seeing the man’s demeanor, said to Gu Ningyue, "Let’s take him to the car first; many things are inconvenient to ask here!"
Although all the children were gone and no more parents would come, there was still a crowd with prying eyes, and anyone could come by at any time.
If they wanted to do something, being at the entrance of the kindergarten was not a very convenient choice.
Gu Ningyue nodded, "Alright."
Escorting the man to the car, Gu Ningyue said to Ling Tianyou, "Take Xuanxuan back first! He was really frightened just now, better let him go back to his mom!"
At this time, only a mother’s embrace could provide some warmth.
Although Ling Tianze is no longer here, at least Liu Liu is still there.
This could be considered a fortunate turn amidst an unfortunate event! Loving her mother, caring grandparents, and his grandparents.
Unlike her, who lost the only embrace she could rely on early on.
"Alright." Ling Tianyou patted Gu Ningyue’s hand, "As you say, we’ll take Xuanxuan back first!"
