No? Can I read the mind of my mortal enemy?

What's this duck doing here?

Shi Qiao clutched the milk tea bag tightly in her hand, not daring to make any rash moves.

Just as she was about to take out her phone to tell Pei Jingnian, she caught a glimpse of Xia Heng half-squatting on the ground, fiddling with something in his pocket.

He turned slightly to the side, revealing the ruthlessness in his eyes.

There was also a gleaming silver light.

If Shi Qiao wasn't mistaken, that was... a scalpel?

Just as the people in the classroom were about to rush out, they could already see Pei Jingnian and Lu Zhou through the glass window in the door.

It was still prominently displayed in the first row.

Pei Jingnian had clearly noticed her and quickened his pace, making a move to open the door.

My wife even came to wait for me at the door, hehe.

Hurry, hurry, we can't keep our wives waiting.

My wife, my wife, a second apart feels like three years.

As the door opened, Xia Heng straightened up for a moment, his hand gripping the scalpel poised to strike.

not good!

At that distance, even if Pei Jingnian reacted quickly, he would still get hurt.

"Pei Jingnian! Don't come out!"

As soon as Shi Qiao's voice reached him, Pei Jingnian quickly stopped his hand, which was about to open the door.

Xia Heng's first stab landed squarely on the door, whereas if that spot had been on Pei Jingnian, it would have been right on his liver.

Even if Pei Jingnian blocked it with his hand, it would cripple his hand.

This guy really wants Pei Jingnian dead!

He turned his head, his gaze fixed on Shi Qiao, and his eyes immediately filled with an ugly, bloodshot red. "Damn it! You actually..."

boom!

Shi Qiao simply threw the two cups of milk tea she was holding at the top.

Precise headshot.

After losing the item, Qiao wasn't stupid; she immediately ran outside to find security.

With a splash, Xia Heng's head was knocked down, and sticky milk tea dripped down his hair and soaked the lining of his clothes.

Under intense concentration, the sudden interruption caught Xia Heng off guard, and the knife in his hand fell to the ground with a crisp sound.

"That bitch!" Xia Heng crouched down, buried in the ground, trying to pick up the knife. "I should be the first one to chop you up!"

The next second, Pei Jingnian kicked the knife away with one foot and landed his other foot directly on his wrist, twisting the most vulnerable part of the wrist bone with his toe.

With a sharp crack, Xia Heng's scream echoed throughout the corridor.

My finger bones were soaked in the spilled milk tea, which was icy cold.

Pei Jingnian bent down and grabbed his collar. His face was backlit, and his eyes, devoid of luster, were so dark that they seemed bottomless.

"Who did you just call out those three words?"

"Who are you going to chop up this time?"

A sinister smile curled at the corners of his lips, and his eyes narrowed into a slit.

He used his finger bones to pull Xia Heng by the collar and dragged him towards the knife that had been kicked to the corner, then bent down to pick up the scalpel from the ground.

"Since you can't speak properly, it's better to cut it off."

Xia Heng's face turned deathly pale from the suffocating sensation, his features contorted in pain.

"Fine! Anyway, you've made me lose everything!"

"Come on, kill me now! Let the entire Victoria Harbour University see how you, a rich kid, drive an ordinary person to their death!"

"At most, this is considered attempted murder, and I won't be sentenced for long. If you don't kill me now, I'll go and kill that crazy woman who ruined my plans when I get out!"

Pei Jingnian held his neck with one hand, pinning him against the white wall, his reason being gradually eroded.

Lu Zhou reacted quickly, immediately stopping his classmates behind him, closing the door behind him, and rushing to Pei Jingnian's side.

He gripped Pei Jingnian's arm tightly with one hand. "Don't let these people sway your emotions, Lao Pei!"

"If you make a move now, it will be excessive self-defense!"

He kept winking and making faces, indicating that it would be better to deal with things when no one was around.

But Pei Jingnian could no longer hear Lu Zhou's words; his mind was filled only with the duck in front of him saying it would harm his wife.

Lu Zhou tightened his grip on Xia Heng's arm, bringing the knife in his hand closer to stab into Xia Heng's throat.

Lu Zhou gritted his teeth.

Damn, I should have known better than to slack off when I was working out.

Where does this old Pei get such incredible strength?

At this point, Lao Pei couldn't hear anything anyone said; he really couldn't hold him back anymore.

"Uncle Security Guard, it's over there!" Shi Qiao's voice suddenly came.

Her gaze swept across the scene and she immediately spotted three people tangled together in the distance, except that the "perpetrator" had been replaced by Pei Jingnian.

ha? ?

When Lu Zhou saw Shi Qiao arrive, it was as if he had seen a savior. He shouted, "Your wife is here! Your wife is here!"

"Your wife really came this time!"

"Aren't you afraid of scaring her?"

Suddenly, Pei Jingnian twisted the knife, which only grazed Xia Heng's hair before piercing the wall and making a small hole.

Xia Heng's pupils dilated and contracted, and his legs went weak, causing him to slip and fall to the ground.

I couldn't stop vomiting, and I vomited all over the floor.

The security guard, carrying bomb disposal equipment, was somewhat bewildered. Looking at the scene before him, he didn't know who to bomb for a moment.

Lu Zhou rushed over, "Master, although it doesn't look quite right, we're here to help subdue the criminal. The one vomiting on the ground is the murderer."

Shi Qiao quickly chimed in, "Yes, yes, he missed the first stab, and then that male classmate over there helped stop him."

Some students standing a little further in the front row also testified, "Yes, Pei Jingnian was in class with us. It was that boy who was holding a scalpel and trying to stab someone."

Two or three security guards nodded and surrounded Xia Heng. "Young man, please come with us to the police station."

Xia Heng was carried by security guards and walked at the front, his pupils unfocused as he stared at Shi Qiao beside him.

"Shi Qiao, I'm not a good person."

"But clearly, your boyfriend doesn't seem to be a good person either."

"He's dirty."

"Remember to clean your eyes a little better."

As soon as he finished speaking, two security guards forced his head down and put a black hood over his head.

The lingering echoes of those words still lingered in Shi Qiao's ears, causing her heart to race as if it were about to shatter her eardrums.

Dirty, Pei Jingnian?

She shook her head, putting those words behind her, and ran to Pei Jingnian's side.

She kept touching him with her small hands, asking, "Are you alright, Pei Jingnian?"

"Are you hurt? Did the knife cut you?"

Pei Jingnian regulated his disordered breathing, and after seeing Shi Qiao's face clearly, he gradually focused and stretched out his long arm to pull her into his embrace.

"Thanks to my wife, I'm fine."

"Were you... scared?" He softened his voice slightly, rubbing his forehead against Shi Qiao, his arms tightening around her, as if afraid she would escape.

He wasn't sure if he was asking Shi Qiao whether she was frightened by Xia Heng or by him.

Shi Qiao slightly tiptoed and rested her chin on his shoulder. "A little bit."

Pei Jingnian swallowed hard. "It's because..."

"It's because of Xia Heng." Shi Qiao patted the man's trembling back. "I thought something had happened to you, that's why I was so scared."

Pei Jingnian swallowed, burying his face in her soft neck and sniffing her, "My wife is the hero who saved me."

"Without my wife, I'd probably be dead."

Shi Qiao's cheeks flushed slightly. "Don't say such unlucky things. Quickly spit it out!"

Lu Zhou leaned against the wall beside him, like the eye of a typhoon with a force of over 10.

His lips parted and closed several times, unsure whether he should disturb him, and in the end he just scratched his head.

I'm speechless.

Another security guard picked up the tools used in the crime from the ground, thus breaking up the young couple's sweet moment.

"Three students, please come with us to the police station to make a statement."
