BXBX NOVEL Chapter 28
Yun Xiaoxiao slowly hooked up the corners of her lips, playing with the small knife in her hand.
"Aren’t you too gullible for your age?"
"How can you believe a child\'s words so easily?"
"Why would I spare a human failure like you?"
"If I let you go, it’d be like letting a mad dog out of its cage, perhaps soon there would be a second or third dog fighting ring, and you\'d go out and commit some unspeakable evils. Wouldn\'t that make me a sinner?"
"Hence, to accumulate good karma, you must die today!"
Nip in the bud—that was her principle of action!
Listening to Yun Xiaoxiao\'s words, the Thin Man\'s face was full of anger and fear.
His eyes shifted, and then he turned and ran towards the door.
But he had barely covered two steps when a short knife flew towards him, accurately lodging itself into the back of his head.
"Clang!"
His body stiffly fell to the ground, deader than a doornail.
Everyone else around them sucked in a breath of cold air.
Their eyes were full of fear when they looked at Yun Xiaoxiao.
Even though they didn\'t like the group from the dog fighting ring.
Bullyish, unreasonable, and even vicious, they ordered them around.
But they were living off these people, and so they had to endure their displeasure.
They never thought of killing anyone.
But now, these people lay dead before their eyes.
Not sure whether to feel pleased or pained, their only worry was the little girl before them who killed without blinking an eye might kill them next.
Just as everyone was feeling anxious, three children came out of the room behind Yun Xiaoxiao.
Covered in dirt, the trio looked emaciated and weak.
One of them was covered in wounds and blood, their wrist bandaged, bloodstained.
Everyone was stunned.
What was happening here?
"Brother Long, those baddies are all dead!" Said a little girl, pointing to the lifeless bodies on the ground, her eyes red with excitement.
"Thank you, for saving us."
Long Zhe expressed his gratitude to Yun Xiaoxiao with a bow.
The other two children mimicked him, quickly expressing their gratitude.
"Thank you, if it wasn\'t for you, all of us would have been beaten to death by these bad guys."
"Yes, yes, they even said they would eat our flesh, it was terrifying!"
The trio\'s words left everyone else filled with questions.
"What do you mean? What did those people from the dog fighting ring do to you?" One middle-aged woman voiced her doubts.
So Long Zhe and the other two kids began to recount their experiences.
Someone went to check the cellar of the house.
It was exactly what the three kids had described.
It dawned on them, the people from the dog fighting ring had committed such unspeakable atrocities!
No wonder there wasn\'t a single child in the dog fighting ring—they had all been locked in the cellar!
And the little girl just now wasn’t a butcher with little regard for human life, but a small hero who had saved people from a fire and flood!
Everyone remembered this girl. She was just brought back by the people from the dog fighting ring.
There was a ruckus recognizing a niece just earlier.
They all saw how adorable the little lass was before.
The dog fighting ring must have intended to lock her up as well, which is why she lashed out.
At this moment, everyone\'s gaze at Yun Xiaoxiao was no longer filled with fear, but admiration.
At the same time, Jiang Rui\'an scornfully looked at Yun Xiaoxiao.
Such a good daughter, yet she refused to acknowledge her. She must be blind.
Naturally, people lifted the corpses of Fat Brother and his gang, carrying them outside the dog yard.
For them, Yun Xiaoxiao dealing with this group had its advantages.
From now on, no one would dictate what they had to do.
The previous middle-aged woman kindly led Long Zhe and his group to a room, helping them clean their bodies and apply medicine.
Yun Xiaoxiao had to wait for people here, thus, she stayed alone in a room.
Inside another room.
Jiang Rui\'an looked at Zhao Rongyan in surprise.
“You want me to deliver her food?”
“Was I not clear enough?” Zhao Rongyan said in a stern voice.
"We are heading to Rongsheng Base, which is far away. Now that Fat Brother and his gang are dead, who will protect us?
You saw it too, your daughter alone killed so many of them. If she\'s with us, we\'ll certainly reach the base safely.
So now, go give her some food, pacify her, and let her leave with us."
"But..." Jiang Rui\'an seemed reluctant.
She had just told Yun Xiaoxiao she wasn\'t her real mother and didn\'t want to accept her. The words were so harsh, yet here she was going to deliver food to her and mollify her so quickly.
Was she not slapping herself in the face?
As a proud person, she wouldn\'t do such a thing!
Zhao Rongyan glanced at her, knowing what she was thinking.
He stepped over, wrapping his arms around her waist, pressing her on the bed, hands on either side of her body, and began to coax.
"Rui\'an, once we reach the base, whatever you want, I\'ll give it to you. Then, you will be the most honored woman there."
Speaking, he leaned over and kissed her.
A room full of romance.
Half an hour later.
Jiang Rui\'an fully dressed, flushed, emerged from the room.
In her hand, she held a bottle of mineral water and a bread loaf.
She took a deep breath, forcing a smile before walking to Yun Xiaoxiao\'s door.
"Knock, knock, knock..."
"Xiaoxiao, are you there? It\'s Mom. I have brought you some food."
As she uttered these words, the middle-aged woman who had been applying medicine walked out from the neighboring room.
Hearing her, the woman displayed a disdainful expression.
She had refused to recognize her before but now sought to connect since her daughter was proven capable. How nauseating.
Sensing the woman\'s disapproval, Jiang Rui\'an stared back at her.
Mind your own business, old hag!
The woman couldn\'t be bothered to argue with her, turning her back and walking away.
She felt sorry for the little girl.
If she continued living with such a mother, she would undoubtedly be exploited.
But, as a stranger, she wasn\'t going to interfere.
Yun Xiaoxiao was munching on a double-layered beef burger, savoring a fried chicken leg when she heard the knock and Jiang Rui\'an\'s sickening voice.
Pretending not to hear, she continued eating.
Not killing Jiang Rui\'an was already the utmost mercy.
Once she realized she was not related by blood, many things became clear.
An irrelevant person indeed has no obligation to care about her survival.
So, from now on, everyone should mind their own business.
As long as she doesn\'t purposely cause her trouble, she can also treat her as a stranger, sparing her for now.
"Knock, Knock, Knock~"
The knocking on the door continued from outside.
"Xiaoxiao, are you inside? If you are, open the door. Mom has something to tell you."
Jiang Rui\'an persevered with the knocking.
"I was wrong before, I shouldn’t have denied you, I will love and cherish you from now on, can you forgive me?"
