Chapter 204 Saving Lives
Lu Qianqian immediately stood still, not daring to run around, and could only watch helplessly as Tai Hongyun carried Xiao Chengcheng in her arms and walked to the edge of the cliff.
Rong Changqing's face was frosty, his sharp gaze quickly sweeping across the surroundings before he gave an order to the whiteboard and red-clad figures behind him.
The two then took advantage of the chaos to escape.
"Tai Hongyun, what exactly do you want to do?" Lu Qianqian shouted from a distance.
Seeing Xiao Chengcheng in danger, she was extremely anxious. What if Tai Hongyun suddenly went crazy and threw Xiao Chengcheng down?
"What am I supposed to do?" Tai Hongyun laughed loudly, her face contorted with rage. "Lu Qianqian, don't you know what you've done wrong?"
"What did I do wrong?" Lu Qianqian retorted. "I've been raising your son for you, and he's grown up healthy and chubby. What else could you be unhappy about or dissatisfied with?"
"Why should I be satisfied?" Tai Hongyun screamed frantically. "If you hadn't taken away the shares that should have been mine, would I have ended up like this?"
Lu Qianqian was speechless for a moment. How could this person have such a strange viewpoint?
What do you mean by her taking away the shares that should have belonged to her?
“It’s a waste of time to reason with her at this point.” Rong Changqing stood next to Lu Qianqian, raised a megaphone he had somehow acquired, and said to Tai Hongyun, “Now I’m giving you two choices: First, give me back my son. Second, surrender.”
Tai Hongyun scoffed: "What's the difference between your two choices?"
Rong Changqing shook his head: "No."
Tai Hongyun's expression turned sinister: "Are you doing this on purpose? Aren't you afraid I'll throw your son off the cliff?"
After saying that, she suddenly picked up Xiao Chengcheng and left him hanging over the edge of the cliff.
Lu Qianqian screamed in fright and grabbed Rong Changqing's arm tightly in terror: "Quickly, think of something to save Xiao Chengcheng!"
Rong Changqing reached out and pulled her into his arms: "Don't worry, I know."
Lu Qianqian was still anxious, afraid that Tai Hongyun would let go and let Xiao Chengcheng fall off the cliff.
Tai Hongyun's strength gave way, and seeing that she had caused Lu Qianqian and the other two to become nervous, she picked up Xiao Chengcheng and put him back on the ground, continuing to point the dagger at his neck.
With his feet firmly on the ground, Xiao Chengcheng snapped out of his shock, his face turning deathly pale and cold sweat beading on his forehead. Because he wasn't strong enough, when Tai Hongyun was carrying him, he swayed precariously in mid-air above the cliff, and several times he felt that she was about to let go, which terrified him.
Below is a rushing river and various large rocks; falling in would most likely result in death, and a particularly gruesome one at that! It would be like a watermelon crashing to the ground with a "bang," shattering into pieces—a truly horrific sight!
"Um, Auntie, could you please tell my dad what you're doing, since your son and I are good friends? It's too windy here, I'm afraid it might blow me off." Xiao Chengcheng tried to keep his voice calm, but the tremor in his voice still revealed his fear.
That's really scary. Couldn't they have chosen a different man to kidnap him?
"Shut up!" Tai Hongyun roared angrily at him, then turned to Lu Qianqian in the distance and said, "Lu Qianqian, I'm giving you a choice now. It's up to you whether you want to save your stepson!"
"Tell me, and I'll agree to anything you say." Lu Qianqian agreed without hesitation.
Rong Changqing glanced at her, feeling a pang of heartache: "Qianqian, don't worry."
Lu Qianqian said, "Let's hear what she wants first!"
Tai Hongyun slowly moved the dagger in her hand and roared, "Simple, I don't want to live anymore. Come over here now and jump down with me, and I'll give your stepson back. How about it?"
"Qianqian, don't go." Rong Changqing stopped Lu Qianqian directly, not allowing her to take another step forward.
“But Xiao Chengcheng is in danger.” Lu Qianqian said anxiously, “I have to go, otherwise she will abandon Xiao Chengcheng.”
"Qianqian, you have to believe me." Rong Changqing had a headache.
However, Lu Qianqian still managed to break free from his grasp: "Tai Hongyun's target is me. Xiao Chengcheng was implicated because of me. If I don't get him back, I won't be able to live with myself."
After saying that, Lu Qianqian ran off into the distance.
Rong Changqing was increasingly troubled: "Women are all impulsive creatures."
"Boss, the red and white cards are ready." Fa Cai stood behind Rong Changqing and reported in a low voice.
Rong Changqing nodded: "Make sure to rescue Qianqian and Zhecheng safely."
"Yes!" Fa Cai replied.
In the distance, Lu Qianqian walked towards Tai Hongyun step by step. Although it was less than thirty meters, she walked very slowly. Her mind was blank, and she didn't know what she would face next, but she knew that she had to save Xiao Chengcheng.
"Lu Qianqian, you'd better behave yourself and don't try anything funny." Tai Hongyun said, increasing the pressure on her hand. "I'll count to ten, and if you don't come over, I'll kill him."
"No!" Lu Qianqian ran over immediately, not daring to delay for even a moment.
Xiao Chengcheng opened his eyes wide and looked at Lu Qianqian, who was doing so much for him, and felt very uncomfortable.
"I'm here!" Lu Qianqian stood a few steps away from Tai Hongyun. "Release the child. We'll settle our score."
Tai Hongyun slowly raised her other hand, holding another dagger with an exceptionally sharp tip: "Before you release him, stab yourself with this first, otherwise I won't release him."
After saying that, he threw the dagger on the ground.
Without saying a word, Lu Qianqian picked it up and stabbed it into her arm.
"No!" Xiao Chengcheng was terrified by what he saw and screamed.
Even Tai Hongyun didn't react in time.
Rong Changqing was standing far away and unaware of what was happening when he heard Xiao Chengcheng's scream. The next second, Lu Qianqian collapsed to the ground, a dagger still embedded in her left arm. He was terrified, his face turning deathly pale: "Hongzhong—"
A thunderous roar suddenly erupted from the mountaintop, accompanied by a piercing sound as it hurtled through the air.
A bullet pierced Tai Hongyun's forehead. Before she even realized what had happened, her body lost all strength, and she fell backward off the cliff.
"Xiao Chengcheng!" Lu Qianqian cried out in a panic, rushing over with all her might to hug Xiao Chengcheng in her arms, completely ignoring the injury on her hand and having no time to consider that this action would put her in danger as well.
The two bodies, one big and one small, fell off the cliff. Tears streamed down Lu Qianqian's face as she said, "I still couldn't protect you, Xiao Chengcheng."
In her daze, she seemed to hear a faint call, as if it were calling "Mommy".
Before she could listen carefully, a sudden force appeared on her hind legs. Lu Qianqian opened her eyes abruptly and found herself hanging upside down on the cliff, with Xiao Chengcheng, whom she was holding tightly in her arms.
However, due to gravity, Xiao Chengcheng's upper body was being held by her, while his lower body was hanging down, making his whole body form a horizontal U-shape.
