Chapter 249: Arson

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Shi Xiao came to a realization — maybe Qin Yu had been playing dumb all these years!

That bitch Qin Yu had her played like a fool for years!

Shi Xiao’s entire body trembled.

In the past, she had thought that she was better than Qin Yu in many ways, and had even continued to humiliate Qin Yu, treating her as a retarded fool. But now, Qin Yu was the true mistress of the Ning family. Yet, she was cooped up, in humiliating fashion, at a little rental apartment after the organization’s demise.

How unfair!

The intense jealousy made Shi Xiao lose her mind. She wished she could tear Qin Yu’s smiling face apart.

Once, Shi Yong was drunk and revealed that he had Qin Sheng’s file. Shi Yong said that he could find an opportunity to sell it to Qin Yu. Perhaps he could exchange it for a few million dollars.

Shi Xiao’s face was filled with shock. She quickly stole Qin Sheng’s file from her father’s room.

A plan formed in her mind.

***

Qin Yu came to the forest by the mountain. She followed the trails and quickly located the small wooden house.

The person’s right there!

Qin Yu’s heart pounded heavily. She slowly walked into the small wooden house and soon saw the file on the table!

She rushed over and reached out for the file. When she opened it, she saw that it was indeed Qin Sheng’s police report.

She smiled. Just as she was about to leave, she heard a loud bang behind her!

The door shut tight!

A scary-looking person with a head wrapped in bandage stood outside the window and sneered, “Qin Yu, just die here! You’ve taken everything from me, I won’t let you live!”

Before Qin Yu could react to what had happened, she smelled the pungent smell of gasoline.

“Shi Xiao, you’re crazy! Let me go! I’ve already called the police. The police will be here in half an hour!” Qin Yu pushed the door open desperately.

She had been careful when she came and had a tracking device on her body. Although she had thrown away her phone at the foot of the mountain according to Shi Xiao’s request, the police wouldn’t need much to locate her.

Shi Xiao laughed out loud and said with a crazy expression, “Even God can’t save you now, go to hell, Qin Yu!”

Shi Xiao threw the lighter in her hand into the gasoline and the wooden hut began to burn rapidly. Qin Yu soon felt the thick smoke permeating the air. She choked and coughed. The only thing she could do was to lie on the floor, gasping for fresh air.

However, the fire was getting stronger and she was about to lose consciousness.

Was she really going to die here..

Qin Yu desperately held her father’s file in her arms and guarded it with her body.

Before she fainted, Qin Yu seemed to have heard a scream and a deafening gunshot.

***

“Xiaoxiao, you’re crazy!” He Bei looked at the woman in front of him with his eyes wide open. He felt pain in his heart.

After Qin Yu lost track of her whereabouts, the police quickly sent out reinforcements, with Ning Chen tagging along.

However, when everyone arrived at the scene, they saw Shi Xiao blocking the burning wooden house with a bundle of explosives tied to her body!

“He Bei, go away!” Shi Xiao screamed when she saw her former lover.

“Xiaoxiao…” He Bei knew that the sniper had aimed at Shi Xiao’s head in order to save Qin Yu in the burning wooden house and to prevent Shi Xiao from igniting the bomb.

Shi Xiao would die if she did not give up resisting!

Shi Xiao laughed maniacally at Ning Chen. “Ning Chen, how does it feel to watch the person you love burn to death in front of you? What I can’t get, Qin Yu can never get it too!”

Shi Xiao’s laughter came to an abrupt end with a gunshot.

“He… He Bei…” Shi Xiao widened her eyes in shock as she looked at He Bei who was shot in front of her. She was shocked silence and no sound escaped her mouth.

“Xiaoxiao, stop…” He Bei spat out a mouthful of blood and fell to the ground.

“He Bei!” A shrill scream sounded. Shi Xiao pounced toward the collapsed body on the ground.

A few special forces officers caught He Bei. One of them checked He Bei’s breath and shook his head. “He’s dead.”

Shi Xiao widened her eyes. In the next moment, the whites of her eyes rolled over and she fainted.

“Quick, save her!” The firemen began putting out fire. Ning Chen looked at the burning wooden house with bloodshot eyes. He rushed into the fire without thinking.

“Young Master!” Uncle Wen screamed, but he couldn’t stop Ning Chen.

The fire seemed to devour everything.

Half an hour later, the fire was put out. Uncle Wen frantically looked for Ning Chen in the messy ruins.

Finally, he found Ning Chen in a cellar.

Ning Chen entered the fire and found Qin Yu. They were trapped and could not get out. In a moment of desperation, Ning Chen looked around, only to find a cellar in the basement. He hurriedly pulled Qin Yu into it.

Fortunately, the two of them were safe and sound. Qin Yu only suffered a little burn.

Half a month later, Shi Xiao was diagnosed as schizophrenic and was now known as a mad person.

Shi Yong came to plead for her, saying that if Qin Yu did not prosecute Shi Xiao, he was willing to come forward and identify the dirty cops who had erased Qin Sheng’s police identity.

Qin Yu agreed — anyway, Shi Xiao was just a lunatic for the rest of her life
