147: Lao Tzu's son can only have the surname Lin.

Although Qin Guanguan was constantly smiling, her tone carried an irresistible force.

Under Ning Fengya's astonished gaze, Lin Du took the dagger from the female Bodyguard.

"Mom!"

"Where should I stab him with the dagger for it to be more painful?"

Lin Du asked a question that greatly surprised Qin Guanguan.

Qin Guanguan laughed, a hearty and unrestrained laugh.

"If you want pain, of course, starting from the feet and cutting him piece by piece is the most painful."

"Since this is your first time killing someone, just stab the heart directly!"

Lin Du nodded, gripping the dagger and aiming it at the Middle-aged Man's stomach.

The Middle-aged Man was terrified senseless.

His remaining strength allowed him to make one last plea for mercy.

"Please!"

"L-let me go!"

Pfft—

Lin Du did not give the Middle-aged Man a second chance to speak.

Let you go?

My arm still hurts right now!

The dagger plunged deep into the Middle-aged Man's chest, and blood instantly stained the ground... "son-in-law, you stabbed the wrong spot."

"I know, Mom."

Lin Du was expressionless, holding the dagger stuck in the Middle-aged Man's chest, and forcefully sliced to the right.

Pfft—

The dagger sliced open the Middle-aged Man's chest cavity, cutting the heart into two pieces as well.

The expression on the Middle-aged Man's face froze.

He had stopped breathing... "Not bad!"

Qin Guanguan curved her lips... This bloody scene fell completely into the eyes of Ning Fengya and Ning Tianxiong and his two sons who arrived later.

Ning Fengya's face was slightly pale.

Looking at Lin Du's back, a strange sense of unfamiliarity and horror inexplicably arose in her heart.

Ning Tianxiong gravely scrutinized Lin Du.

That look was as if he were seeing Lin Du for the very first time... Lin Du threw down the dagger and wiped the blood from his hands.

"Mom, I'm going to change clothes!"

Lin Du left under the watchful eyes of the group.

Ning Tianxiong walked up to Qin Guanguan, a clear look of displeasure on his face.

"Qin Guanguan, this is not the place for you to kill people."

Facing Ning Tianxiong's accusation, the smile on Qin Guanguan's face gradually disappeared.

"Shouldn't the culprit who tried to assassinate my daughter and injure my son-in-law be killed?"

"Ning Tianxiong!"

"If you cannot protect your family, then hand them over to me!"

Ning Tianxiong's expression was extremely unpleasant.

But he had absolutely no way to deal with Qin Guanguan... Unable to deal with Qin Guanguan, Ning Tianxiong could only vent his anger on the Middle-aged Man.

Ning Tianxiong looked down at the lifeless corpse on the ground, and intense killing intent erupted from his body.

"Butler, chop him up and feed him to the dogs!"

"Also, investigate his background. Leave no one related to him alive!"

Qin Guanguan glanced at Ning Tianxiong dismissively.

"No need to check. I've already finished all those things."

"The person who tried to assassinate Fengya was a lackey of the Imperial Capital Zhao Family!"

Whoosh—

As soon as Qin Guanguan said this, Ning Fengnian, who was beside Ning Tianxiong, paled drastically.

"H-how is this possible!"

"Mom, you couldn't have made a mistake, could you?"

Qin Guanguan disappointedly patted Ning Fengnian's shoulder.

"My silly son, have you forgotten what your mother does?"

"Before you make a major mistake, quickly cut ties with the Imperial Capital Zhao Family. Your sister and brother-in-law might still forgive you!"

Ning Fengnian stood rooted to the spot, utterly distraught.

His face was full of confusion.

Zhao Yunsou had clearly promised before that he would only take Lin Du's life, but why this time... Ning Fengnian was lost... Qin Guanguan brushed past Ning Fengnian and walked over to Ning Yang.

This time.

Qin Guanguan put on a gentle and amiable smile.

"Xiao Yang, did you miss Mom?"

Qin Guanguan lovingly ruffled Ning Yang's mop of yellow hair. "I heard you've been having a lot of fun with the maids in the villa?"

Ning Yang's face instantly went white with fright.

"Mom!"

"Rumors! Those are just rumors!"

"I'm not familiar with Bai Jie, Xiao Mei, or any of them!"

Qin Guanguan stroked Ning Yang's ear, a mysterious smile appearing at the corner of her mouth.

"Xiao Yang, are you telling the truth?"

As she spoke, Qin Guanguan's fingers slowly applied pressure.

Ning Yang's ear quickly deformed.

Waves of sharp pain struck him... "Ah!"

"Mom, I was wrong, I was wrong."

"I won't dare to do it again."

"Let go quickly!!"

...Qin Guanguan's arrival changed the entire atmosphere of the Ning Family.

Inside the conference room.

The Ning Family's five members, plus Lin Du, a total of six people, gathered together.

Qin Guanguan had been invited by Ning Tianxiong.

Her main purpose for coming this time was to discuss matters concerning the Year of Death One period.

To be precise.

Ning Tianxiong wanted to ask Qin Guanguan to help Rule the World overcome difficulties during the Year of Death One... Originally, Ning Tianxiong hadn't planned to bring Lin Du to discuss such a major issue, but Qin Guanguan insisted he be brought.

Not only that, but Qin Guanguan also had Lin Du sit beside her.

This situation was thought-provoking.

Click!

Qin Guanguan lit a lady's cigarette and elegantly took a puff, the light scent of smoke swirling around the room.

"Ning Tianxiong, just say what you need to say."

"I am very busy!"

Ning Tianxiong's expression was serious, and he immediately stated the topic.

"The situation in Yunlong City hasn't been good recently. I asked you here mainly to request your help during the Year of Death One period."

Whoosh—

Qin Guanguan exhaled a smoke ring and laughed coldly and mercilessly.

"We are already divorced. Why should I help you?"

"Back then, you took advantage of my difficult situation and snatched away custody of our three children. Did you ever think there would be a day when you would beg me?"

Ning Tianxiong fell silent.

During the divorce back then, Ning Tianxiong used threats and inducements to gain custody of their three children when Qin Guanguan was in the worst possible situation.

At that time, the Ning Family was at its peak, while Qin Guanguan's situation was extremely poor.

Ning Tianxiong had never imagined that one day, the Ning Family would actually have to beg Qin Guanguan for help.

With the old matter brought up again, Ning Tianxiong truly felt ashamed... "Qin Guanguan, the past is the past, let's not bring it up again."

"As long as you are willing to help the Ning Family this time, you can name your price!"

Ning Tianxiong was asking for a favor and could only infinitely lower his stance at this moment.

Ning Fengnian and his siblings were all adults now, so custody was no longer an issue, and Ning Tianxiong didn't need to worry about it.

Qin Guanguan sneered silently.

They were all sly old foxes; how could she not see Ning Tianxiong's intentions?

Qin Guanguan's gaze fell upon Ning Fengya, and she suddenly asked a question that caught everyone off guard.

"Fengya, when are you planning to have children?"

Have children?

Ning Fengya looked at Ning Tianxiong, and then at Lin Du, who was sitting beside Qin Guanguan.

"We just finished our physical checkups today."

"We plan to start trying soon."

Qin Guanguan nodded.

"Good."

"This child will take my surname in the future!"

This statement stunned Lin Du, who was sitting nearby watching the drama unfold.

They didn't even have a baby yet, and they were already calculating the child's surname?

According to Lin Du's surname, the child should be named Lin.

According to the custom of marrying into the wife's family, the child should be named Ning.

And now, they're throwing in the surname Qin?

Isn't this becoming a three-surname slave?!

Lin Du was about to curse.

My son can only be named Lin in the future!
