Mr. Xiao, can I borrow your wedding invitation?

Chapter 101 Only One of You and Him Remain

Upon hearing that it was no use, Jiang Xue staggered back a few steps in despair. After a moment of wild thoughts, she suddenly knelt down with a thud. "Xiao Wu, I'm begging you, please save Rou Rou. She did do something wrong before, but she's still your sister..."

Nan Wu turned her head away and gave a cold sneer.

She thought to herself that her good sister had almost killed her. Luckily, the person who "kidnapped" her was Xiao Shen. If it had been Zhen Bangfei, she would have been dead long ago.

"Xiaoxue!" Nan Dongxue saw this scene. "What are you doing? Get up!"

"I……"

"You won't solve the problem like this!"

Nan Wu also feigned concern, "Yes, Aunt Xue, this is useless!"

Jiang Xue shook her head in despair, "Then what should I do? What if something really happens to Rou Rou?"

Suddenly, she thought of something and grabbed Nan Dongxue's clothes. "Why don't we call the police? Let the officers handle it; they're definitely better than us!"

"Are you crazy? If we fall into the hands of those vicious kidnappers, they might just..."

"Then what am I supposed to do? I can't just sit here and wait to die, can I?" Jiang Xue collapsed on the spot, and suddenly, she turned her anger towards Nan Dongxue, "It's all your fault! You made enemies in business, and now they're taking revenge on Rou Rou. It's all your fault, all your fault..."

Nan Dongxue grabbed her hand that was slapping him and angrily retorted, "I do business so that you can eat and drink well, and now you're blaming me? Besides, how was I supposed to know this would happen? If nothing goes wrong, you're all happy, but if something does, it's all my fault. I deserve to put up with your nonsense, right..."

Nan Wu didn't have time to listen to their dogfighting; she had to hurry to Baicheng.

At the appointed time, she drove to a remote lake-crossing bridge on the outskirts of Baicheng.

The nearby road is under renovation, and the surrounding area is full of unfinished buildings, so very few cars pass by.

Qian Ke'er sat on a chair, with Mu Sha standing beside her holding a parasol for her. Qian Xingjie stood on the other side, and several bodyguards guarded her around.

As expected of a thousand families, the procession is quite grand.

"I didn't expect you to dare come! I admire your courage!"

Nan Wu was wearing a black hooded sweatshirt with denim shorts and a baseball cap. In just one year, she seemed to be even more beautiful than before. Seeing this, Qian Ke'er felt a surge of hatred.

Why should this sinner be able to live such a carefree and happy life?
Nan Wu, with her hands in her pockets, chuckled upon hearing this, "Since you've come all this way, why wouldn't I dare?"

Qian Ke'er's expression darkened, and her voice rose, "Aren't you afraid I'll kill you?"

Nan Wu remained as calm as ever. "Qian Ke'er, it's not right for you to say that. Your sister and Su Wen's relationship is not good, but that's between the young couple. You can never force matters of the heart. Her accident was an accident, and we didn't want to see it happen. You can't avenge her yourself, so you're taking it out on us. Don't you find that ridiculous?"

"Shut up! How dare you talk about your relationship with her?" Qian Ke'er growled. "If Su Wen hadn't toyed with my sister's feelings, would she be so heartbroken? She's such a naive girl, only wanting to be good to one boy, but Su Wen took advantage of her naivety to hurt her, deceive her, and use her, and you too..."

Qian Ke'er pointed at Nan Wu, "If you hadn't asked her to meet that day, would she have ended up like this? You are the murderer, Su Wen is the murderer, you are all murderers, and I will not let any of you go!" Qian Ke'er is two years older than her younger sister Qian Ling'er, and the two sisters have a very good relationship. Although Qian Ke'er is vicious and cruel, she is impeccable when it comes to her younger sister.

After learning that her younger sister had been murdered, she nearly went mad. Unfortunately, she never found the murderers who had hurt her sister. Filled with remorse, she locked herself in her room for several days. From that moment on, she vowed to make all those who had harmed her sister pay with their lives.

The first family she wanted to take revenge on was the Su family. At the time, Su's father was a senior executive at a large company, and his mother worked at a bank. Although they weren't wealthy, the family of four lived happily together.

Qian Ke'er secretly sabotaged him, and Su's father was falsely accused of accepting bribes. Then, he was exposed for having an affair with a married female subordinate at the company, which led to his dismissal from the company and damage to his reputation. For a long time, he became the target of cyberbullying. Some extremists broke into his house and threw paint on it, and left obscene and abusive words on the wall.

The situation wasn't much better for Su's mother. She was reported for misappropriating public funds and was subsequently detained by the police for three months before being released without charge. As a result, she, who already had health problems, was tormented to the point of mental confusion and fell seriously ill.

Su Wen's photography studio was secretly set on fire in the middle of the night, leaving nothing but ashes, while Nan Wu herself was frequently harassed by hooligans when she returned home at night.

"You tampered with that car, didn't you?" The wind was strong on the bridge, blowing Nan Wu's hair wildly. She tucked it behind her back and glared coldly at Qian Ke'er, waiting for her answer.

Qian Ke'er laughed and said slowly, "Who else could it be but me? It's just a pity I didn't get to see them covered in blood at the end. It must have looked really good, right?"

Nan Wu clenched her fists, her eyes filled with horror. She would never forget the regret on her parents' faces as they held her hands tightly before they breathed their last, their mouths agape as if they wanted to say something, but they didn't have time to say anything.

"I just want to know, what exactly did they do wrong? Why don't you even spare innocent people?"

"Innocent? They gave birth to you and your damned brother, that's a mistake. Besides, what's the point of killing you and your brother? I'll make you taste what it feels like to lose your loved ones!"

Nan Wu's eyes reddened, from anger and grief. "Aren't their deaths enough to quell your hatred?"

Qian Ke'er fiddled with her manicure, and it was clear she really liked it. "Of course it's not enough. Even if you took all four of your family members, it still wouldn't be enough to pay for my sister's funeral!"

Nan Wu took a deep breath, raised her chin, and asked calmly and confidently, "What exactly do you want?"

Qian Ke'er seemed to have gotten tired of sitting and stood up with Mu Sha's help. Although she was wearing ten-centimeter high heels, Nan Wu's aura seemed stronger than hers.

"That's what I should be asking you. There's only one you can choose between Su Wen and yourself. I'm leaving that choice to you!"

Nan Wu frowned, looking around. "Where's Su Wen? I need to make sure he's still alive, just in case you're lying to me!"

Every second counts; she wanted Su Wen to live, and she herself had to live too.

Qian Ke'er raised her hand and clapped twice, "Bring people!"

Su Wen was helped out of the car by two bodyguards. He looked much thinner than last time. He was unshaven, covered in whip marks, and his clothes had dried blood and were torn from being whipped.

Upon seeing Nan Wu, Su Wen felt as if he had seen a savior, crying out, "Xiao Ying, save me..."
