Rong Mingyan hooked the corner of his lips into a faint smile, "You think that by protecting him, I won’t be able to kill her?

Lin Xinlan, your cleverness has been your downfall.

You brought the child out to inherit the property, but in fact, you’re rushing him towards his death!

If you want to blame someone, the only person you can blame is yourself! "

Lin Xinlan stood up, turned to face him, with a glint of determination flashing in her eyes.

"Rong Mingyan, if you dare harm him, I will use every method at my disposal to send you to hell!"

The man burst into laughter, a sinister and terrifying sound.

"With just you? We’ll see soon enough who will be going to hell first!"

His viciousness terrified Xiaocong.

Children are the most sensitive. He could feel that this uncle wanted to hurt them.

In all the time he had grown, he had always been protected and adored in the arms of Lin Xinlan and his grandmother, never having suffered the slightest grievance, let alone fright.

For a moment, he was so scared that he clung tightly to Lin Xinlan’s embrace, his small hands anxiously grasping her clothes.

His tiny body trembled slightly with fear.

Lin Xinlan knew he was terrified, her heart ached, and she quickly stroked his head with her hand, leaning down to whisper in his ear:

"Don’t be scared, Mommy is just acting with Uncle. When the play is over, there will be a gift, okay?"

"Really?" he asked in a tiny voice, filled with doubt.

"Of course, when has Mommy ever lied to you? Does Xiaocong not believe Mommy’s words?"

"I believe! Mommy, I believe you, I’m not scared either," he clenched his little fist, trying to look brave.

Lin Xinlan kissed his forehead and smiled knowingly, "Xiaocong is really brave."

He immediately felt happy, basking in his mother’s praise for his bravery.

For his mom, he had to be even braver!

Even with guns aimed at her, Lin Xinlan could still comfort her child as if nothing was amiss, causing both men to pause for a moment.

A complex look flashed through Qiao Yiyang’s eyes, and Rong Mingyan’s gaze also became more complicated...

The love and protection Lin Xinlan had for her child seemed to touch a chord in their hearts, creating no small ripples at the bottom of their hearts...

After comforting her child, Lin Xinlan turned back to face them.

"Rong Mingyan, if you’re capable of doing it, kill me first. However, I still hope you can spare my child. He knows nothing and can’t see. Even if he knew what you’ve done, he couldn’t do anything to you. Why don’t you perform a good deed for once and let him live?"

From beginning to end, her eyes never looked Qiao Yiyang’s way, nor did she seek his protection again.

Qiao Yiyang’s expression darkened, and he felt very displeased.

Hadn’t she said she needed his protection?

Why was she completely ignoring him now, like she doesn’t need him anymore?

Would she rather die with her child than ask him for help?

In her heart, did she dislike relying on him that much, seeking his help?

This thought enraged the man even more, adding to his displeasure.

Rong Mingyan’s thin lips lifted slightly, and he raised his hand, aiming at the center of her forehead, "Alright then, I’ll kill you first, and then your child!"

The muzzle of the gun was fitted with a silencer, and all he needed was to gently pull the trigger to kill them silently.

Lin Xinlan’s expression turned cold. She held her child tightly, facing him defiantly.

She was gambling, gambling on whether Qiao Yiyang would take action...

If Qiao Yiyang didn’t step in to rescue them, even if they escaped today, they wouldn’t escape tomorrow.
