Chapter 903: Chapter 903 An Zhiyan in Danger (1)

"You, you, you..."

Old Lady Xia’s face turned red and her neck thickened in anger. Her tiny, sesame-sized eyes glared viciously at An Yiqing. If looks could kill, An Yiqing would likely have been electrocuted into a charred corpse by now.

"Xia Laoer, this is your son’s good friend. She’s bullying your mother like this, aren’t you going to do something?!"

Father Xia felt a bitter taste in his heart and looked at Old Lady Xia with a complex gaze, but his eyes were filled with firmness and resolve.

"Karma comes full circle; I agree with Xiao Qing’s actions. It’s best you give up your plans to swindle money and take Boss and Lao San back home as soon as possible."

Old Lady Xia looked at Father Xia in disbelief, hardly able to believe that such unsympathetic words were coming from the mouth of her foolish and obedient son.

Was Xia Laoer really serious this time? Was he truly intending to cut ties with them?

A deep panic suddenly surged in Old Lady Xia’s heart. Without Xia Laoer, not only would there be no money to spend in the future, but it also seemed impossible to get a penny out of him today.

Upon thinking of her impoverished days ahead, Old Lady Xia steeled her heart, crossed her legs, and with a fierce slap on her thighs, she opened her mouth wide and started wailing to the heavens.

"Ah, my life is so miserable! My son has been led astray and is unfilial! How am I supposed to live my life in the future?! Heavens, have you no eyes?! You—ack! Ack! Ack!"

A streak of silver light flashed by and Old Lady Xia reached out in panic to grab her own throat, finding herself unable to make a sound.

An Yiqing retracted her hand lightly and smiled faintly.

"Old Lady, your voice is too loud; why don’t you take a rest for a while? Whenever you’ve come to your senses, I’ll remove the needle for you."

Having lived for over seventy years, Old Lady Xia felt fear towards someone’s power for the first time in her life. An Yiqing’s ability was beyond her reach, much like a mortal looking up to a deity, always with fear and reverence.

"Ah! Ah ah ah—!"

Old Lady Xia flailed and gestured wildly, alternating between clasping her hands in entreaty and covering her face with tears, almost going so far as to kneel and kowtow to An Yiqing.

"Old Lady, I can let you go, but after I remove the needle, you must immediately take your darling sons and daughters and leave this place. From now on, you are forbidden from harassing Xia Hao and his family again. If you can’t do it, I can make you relive the experience you just had at any time."

Old Lady Xia nodded repeatedly, and An Yiqing gave her a cool glance. With a flick of her right hand and a gust of wind in her palm, the Silver Needle that had entered Old Lady Xia’s body was instantly pulled out.

"Ah! I can talk? I can talk!" Old Lady Xia covered her mouth, looking at An Yiqing with a gaze filled with wariness, and a hint of resentment hidden deep in her eyes.

An Yiqing didn’t care about her inner thoughts, but she asked her gently.

"Does the promise you just made still stand? Do not bother Xia Hao’s family of three again, and I will let you leave immediately. If I ever find out you’re up to any mischief, I will silence you for life!"

Old Lady Xia’s heart trembled, and cold sweat continuously broke out on her forehead.

"Yes, yes, I’ll leave right away, and I won’t bother Xia Laoer’s family anymore. You have my word, you have my word!"

Old Lady Xia said this while quietly retreating towards the direction of the restaurant’s main entrance, carefully stepping back until she reached the door. Then, with a swift turn, she bolted, completely abandoning her own children.

Father Xia watched Old Lady Xia flee with a somber look in his eyes. Perhaps in the heart of the woman who had given birth to him, nothing was more important than money and herself.
