Chapter 453 - 453: Kill You? It Was Self-Defense
“No one wants you to die. It’s you who wanted to come this far.” Lin Gantang stared at her weapon and was on guard against her actions. “If you don’t stop, you’re going to get yourself killed.”
“Haha.” Zhou Manbai laughed, looking like she had lost her marbles. “You’re right. I will come to this. I’m greedy, jealous, and vicious, but so what? What can you do to me? I’ll die? I’ll drag you along before I die!”
Zhou Manbai held the knife and slowly approached her. She said in a sinister tone, “You haven’t experienced the feeling of going from heaven to hell. Wen Rendong held me up high and abandoned me just like that. Wen Yanqing brought the Zhou family back to life and then pushed them down. He killed the Zhou family and me completely. None of them are good people!”
“But everything started because you killed Fang Xin, isn’t it?” Lin Gantang asked coldly as she warily watched her movements.
Because Zhou Manbai had killed people before, she did not care about human lives, so she kidnapped her and even wanted to kill her.
Fang Xin’s name was like a curse. Zhou Manbai’s eyes reddened in anger. She pounced at Lin Gantang fiercely. “Since you’re so concerned about her, I’ll send you down to meet your future mother-in-law!”
Lin Gantang dodged the fatal blow, but her waist still got stabbed by her.
She did not have the time to check the seriousness of the wound. She took the opportunity to grab Zhou Manbai’s hand that was holding the knife and bit it hard, almost biting through her flesh. Blinded by pain, Zhou Manbai dropped her knife. It fell to the ground and was kicked into the depths of the forest by Lin Gantang, hidden in the grass.
Zhou Manbai, who had lost her weapon, was nothing more than a woman who had lived a comfortable life. Lin Gantang grabbed her hair and slammed her head against a tree. “You want me to die? I haven’t lived enough.”
Zhou Manbai’s forehead was red from the impact, and blood seeped out. She scratched at Lin Gantang as if she wanted to eat her alive, twisting her body to tear her apart.
Zhou Manbai dragged Lin Gantang toward the ravine without a care for her life. She grabbed her and tripped her, causing her to fall to the ground. She rode on her and punched Lin Gantang’s shoulder. “Go to hell!”
Lin Gantang gripped her neck as her gaze became even more ruthless. Zhou Manbai used both hands to break free of the restraints on her neck, and her long nails dug into Lin Gantang’s hands. Lin Gantang pushed her to the side and threw a rock at her head.
Zhou Manbai was knocked dizzy and staggered to the ground. She immediately wanted to get up, but the dizziness made her fall once more.
She saw that Lin Gantang’s face was stained with blood. Her gaze was as sharp as a blade, and the rock in her hand was dyed red. Zhou Manbai’s face was ashen. She said ferociously, “If you kill me, you’re going to jail. Aren’t you afraid?”
Blood trickled down from the wounds on Lin Gantang’s arm. Her eyes were frosty. “Kill you? It was self-defense.”
Then, she pressed down on Zhou Manbai, who was struggling hard, and hammered her with the rock once more.
Zhou Manbai fell to the ground.
Lin Gantang threw the rock away and took two steps back. She panted heavily as she looked at Zhou Manbai lying on the ground.
She grabbed the hemp rope that she had untied from her legs and tied Zhou Manbai up. She then tied her arms behind her back and to a tree. She searched Zhou Manbai’s body for her car keys, but she couldn’t find them. She had lost them somewhere during the fight.
Lin Gantang walked upslope with difficulty. The branches scratched her skin, but she didn’t feel any pain. She covered the bleeding wound on her waist. The battle had accelerated the loss of blood. She felt giddy and almost fell a few times. She held onto a tree beside her.
Panting, she stumbled forward. When she heard the sirens coming from afar, her tensed nerves relaxed and she collapsed beside the tree..
