Chapter 1316 - 1330: No One Can Be Counted On
If the things she did were truly discovered, regardless of An Ran’s new and old grudges against her, or Mu Xingfeng’s protective nature, she would hardly escape a prison disaster.
She doesn’t want to go to prison, her Hairong is still young, and now things are like this. If she really went to prison, what about Hairong?
Relying on Jia Chenggang to raise Hairong?
Impossible, she couldn’t rely on anyone, let alone she and Jia Chenggang were just a couple of one night stands.
At this thought, Wang Xia steeled herself. Wasn’t it just that drink? As long as she destroyed the drink, even the criminal investigation team would be helpless.
Acting swiftly, Wang Xia’s eyes flashed with a dark light, and she crazily rushed to the table, raising it to overturn.
An Ran couldn’t miss that fleeting look in her eyes. Standing up, she pressed down on the table that was slightly lifted. Wang Xia couldn’t move it, so she drew out the fruit knife hidden in her pocket and stabbed directly at An Ran.
She couldn’t care much anymore. If she had to go to prison, she didn’t want this woman to have a good life either.
Why should she suffer like this while An Ran enjoyed her beautiful life unscathed?
Don’t ask why she had a fruit knife in her pocket, she had prepared for the worst since the moment Xue called her.
At worst she’d perish together. If she and An Ran both died, Mu Xingfeng might still remember Hairong’s feelings, given that they grew up together, and maybe raise him to adulthood.
If An Ran didn’t die, Mu Xingfeng would never remember Hairong’s affection for him.
As An Ran pressed down on the table, a flash of light appeared, she didn’t even see what it was, just sensed danger approaching, and wanted to dodge, but it was too late.
Meanwhile, Lin Ruonan, at her side, had long noticed Wang Xia’s actions. Initially trying to help An Ran press down the table, she launched a swift kick, sending Wang Xia flying.
What is Lin Ruonan? An ex-special guard team member, with skills even Lin Junyang feared. A woman who could knock down three men, and this kick was not holding back. All that was heard was a loud "bang——", and Wang Xia was kicked straight off.
She crashed onto the rear wall and slid down to the floor, coughing for half a day and spitting out blood, nearly fainting.
The knife also fell to the side.
An Ran looked at the fallen knife, her expression growing even gloomier, "Wang Xia, I believe I’ve done nothing to wrong you, why do this to me? If there’s no problem with this drink, what are you so guilty about?"
Wang Xia, clutching her chest, looked hatefully at the knife not far away, ignoring An Ran’s words.
At this moment, security whispered a few words to the duty manager, who glanced at Wang Xia on the ground, and had the security behind him restrain her.
If earlier it was just customers’ speculation, the scene just now was deliberate harm.
In less than ten minutes, the front desk staff reported to the manager that criminal police had arrived at Kong Mansion Banquet, and the duty manager directly let them up to room 5 on the second floor.
After entering the room, the newcomers ignored the manager’s pleasantries, their gaze flickering with surprise upon seeing Wang Xia on the ground. Recognizing Lin Ruonan, with understanding, bowed to An Ran, "Miss, Chief Shen sent me to assist you with this matter. Whatever your orders, feel free to tell me. My name is Xia, Xia Ke."
An Ran recounted the events to Xia Ke, who immediately signaled to take a sample of the drink and ordered Wang Xia on the ground to be taken away.
