Priceless Baby: 101 Bedside Stories

Mu Yuan seemed to be struck by lightning. His face was pale. Did Jack want him to end his life and pay for Lehman’s life?

There was darkness in front of his eyes. The night in the city was like a demon’s claws dancing wildly in front of him. Mu Yuan held the gun slowly. If Jack really wanted him to end his life, he was also willing to pay with his life.

If he paid with his life, Shan Ning would be safe.

This matter would be settled. He would also have returned Shan Ning’s favor. No one would owe anyone.

Mu Yuan slightly closed his eyes.. He aimed the gun at his temple. He gazed out towards the darkness outside the window. Jack, who was opposite the hotel, was using a sniper scope to observe his movements. He was so angry.

“Sh*t!”

This was Mu Yuan’s interpretation of this gun? He thought that Jack had let him take his own life to pay for Lehman’s life?

Jack had never felt so furious before. There was a rage leaping in his chest that wanted to erode his bones and blood. Very well. It looks like he was not beaten badly enough that day. He has not been beaten silly. 

If he was beaten silly, it was also better than watching him raising the gun and pointing it at his own brain now.

What was he thinking at this moment?

Mu Yuan was thinking that it would be good if he could see Jack again. But he dared not to and was not in the position to do so. Jack had said that he did not want him to appear in front of him again. He had never joked around before.

He also knew that they would never have contact with each other again in this lifetime.

What was the difference between this and death?

Mu Yuan closed his eyes and opened the safety bolt. He pulled the trigger. The gun made a click sound. It was not loaded. Mu Yuan was startled. He opened the cartridge. There was not a single bullet.

What do you mean?

Jack was also stunned until he broke out in a cold sweat. Luckily, he had been careful at that moment to remove all the bullets when he mailed out this handgun. If he did not remove them and mailed it over as Lehman’s firearm, it would be equivalent to him sending Mu Yuan off on his journey.

Dreadful!

Mu Yuan’s mind was wandering now. It was not suitable for him to think about anything. Jack smashed his fist onto the wall. Mu Yuan saw a small card in the package. His fingers trembled as he picked up the small card.

This was Lehman’s gun. He did not even open the safety.

Mu Yuan suddenly felt a chill running down his spine.

What is Jack’s meaning?

Lehman did not open the safety bolt. It meant that he simply had no intention to kill Shan Ning and that he was only scaring Shan Ning?

It was Shan Ning who misunderstood?

He had overreacted?

Mu Yuan recalled Lehman’s words. Lehman looked like he obviously wanted to watch the show back then. It was Shan Ning who asked Lehman whether he had always wanted to kill him. Lehman then raised his gun. Subsequently, Shan Ning opened fire.

Had Shan Ning overreacted?

Mu Yuan lost all his energy. Jack also heaved a sigh of relief and kept the gun. He did not want Shan Ning’s life, but it did not mean that he would let the matter rest. He wanted to let Xiaoyuan investigate and find out for himself.

Whatever he said would not be as shocking as him finding out the truth himself.

Shan Ning, you want to make use of me to leave a good impression in front of him?

Dream on!

His brother would not die in vain.

He would take back this life sooner or later.

…

Ye Chu heard the sound of the door opening. She rubbed her eyes and was tired. “Ye Tingyun, are you back?”

“Yeah, I’m back.”

The food on the table was untouched. It was obvious that Ye Chu did not touch anything. Ye Tingyun sat by her side. “What happened? Is your appetite not good?”

His voice was as warm as the wind. It made Ye Chu completely unguarded. She made an uproar, not believing that his little girl had already gone missing.

“I want you to feed me.”

Ye Tingyun smiled. “Alright. I’ll feed you.”

The dishes here had a stronger taste. Luckily, Ye Chu was someone who was willing to try everything. She was open to most things. He fed his little girl mouthful by mouthful and could not help pondering.

Should I let her eat some calcium supplements?

Maybe… she can still grow?
