Even After My Death

Chapter 70: Chapter 64 Task Completed Chapter 70: Chapter 64 Task Completed Jiang Ning didn’t have tto

think too much, she raised the broom in her hand high and charged directly at the man in the black clothes.

Although the man in white seemed to be alive, the blood flowing from his wounds was too much, and there was

no tto delay. The more violently he struggled, the faster his blood was lost.

Jiang Ning knew that only a quick battle could lead to a swift victory.

The broom, held high, ccrashing down hard on the man in black. He cried out in pain, his movements to

harm others slightly hesitated. He turned his head displeased, his sinister gaze falling on Jiang Ning as he said

nastily, “Scram! Or I'll stab you too!”

He thought this would scare Jiang Ning away; after all, she looked delicate and petite, like a college student who

had yet to step into society. But just after he finished speaking, Jiang Ning moved her hands, swinging the

bamboo broom and fiercely struck across his face.

On Yang He's dark-skinned face, several red marks instantly appeared, making his already grim and fierce

expression even more murderous.

Jiang Ning ignored the murderous look on his face, merely swinging the broom in her hands, striking Yang He

over and over again.

This broom was made of bamboo branches. Dozens of similarly sized branches were picked, dried, and then

tightly bound together with iron wire. No matter how hard Jiang Ning exerted herself, the bamboo’s thin tail,

though not causing much damage, created a series of sharp pains that were impossible to ignore when it

whipped the body.

Yang He couldn't bear it any longer and cursed angrily, releasing the man in white he had been pressing down,

and stood up to glare at Jiang Ning with rage.

He was tall and sturdy; with one grab, he caught the broom Jiang Ning swung at him. His other hand, tightly

clutching the fruit knife, aimed a stab towards Jiang Ning!

Jiang Ning had planned to dodge and follow up with a heavy kick at Yang He.

But as the fruit knife was about to reach her, Jiang Ning saw a shadow flash behind Yang He, followed by a loud

thud; Yang He suddenly screamed, released the broom he was holding, and also let go of the fruit knife.

Yang He held his head and howled in pain.

Jiang Ning saw that Qi Xingzhou, whom she thought was obediently waiting for her below, had also followed her

up. In Qi Xingzhou’s hands, he was holding a long iron shovel.

Qi Xingzhou had used the iron shovel in his hands to strike Yang He's head from behind just now, the sound of

the intense impact indicating how much force Qi Xingzhou had exerted.

Looking at Yang He writhing in pain on the ground and remembering the loud noise from before, Jiang Ning felt a

twinge and was even afraid that the brain inside his skull might have been scattered by the blow.

Qi Xingzhou, who had taken the action, however, didn’t think so much. After Yang He fell to the ground, Qi

Xingzhou showed no intention of letting him go.

With a cold face, Qi Xingzhou raised the iron shovel and kept smashing it down on Yang He.

Yang He, with his hands over his head, rolled around in pain on the ground.

“Stop, stop, that’s enough,” Jiang Ning said, hurrying forward to take the shovel from Qi Xingzhou’s hands.

The shovel was long, and Jiang Ning, holding onto it, shielded Qi Xingzhou behind her, casually flicking the blood-

stained fruit knife that Yang He had dropped far away.

Just then, residents at the temple heard snoises and rushed over.

Upon seeing the assailant already subdued by Jiang Ning and Qi Xingzhou, the head priest sighed in relief, but

when he saw the fresh blood and the two figures, one male and one female, on the ground, his heart rose in

apprehension once more.

Jiang Ning looked toward the head priest and asked calmly, “Did you call the police?”

The head priest replied with an unsteady voice, “We, we've already called them.”

Jiang Ning nodded her head.

The head priest, though he had left worldly affairs, didn’t mean he was ignorant of them.

Seeing Jiang Ning subdue the assailant, the head priest immediately had people bring shemp ropes to

tightly tie up Yang He's hands and feet.

This was a criminal case that happened on his turf; he couldn't let the criminal escape!

As for the man in white and the other woman lying on the ground, speople approached to help stop the

bleeding, not daring to move them randomly.

[Congratulations to the Host for completing the mission, rewarded with 3 days of life value and 10 Merit Points.]

The mission was completed, and there was no need for her to help anymore, so Jiang Ning put down her things

and quietly left with Qi Xingzhou.

Jiang Ning hadn't forgotten Qi Xingzhou’s actions just now and felt a surge of fear, berating him, “Are you stupid?

| told you to wait forbelow, yet you foolishly followed. Thankfully, you were smart enough to take an iron

shovel as a weapon, and the timing was advantageous. Otherwise...”

Jiang Ning didn’t want to think about what could have happened.

She had to say to him seriously, “Don’t do this again next time.”

Qi Xingzhou cout unscathed; Jiang Ning didn’t want to see anything bad happen to him.

Qi Xingzhou was head and shoulders taller than Jiang Ning, and at this moment, he lowered his head like an

obedient emperor penguin, allowing Jiang Ning to lead him, his gaze clear and seemingly harmless, utterly

lacking the fierceness of wielding a shovel earlier.

But when Qi Xingzhou grasped the meaning in Jiang Ning’s words, he pursed his lips and showed a defiant

expression as if saying he wouldn't listen to any nagging.

Jiang Ning watched him as she spoke, and after noticing Qi Xingzhou’s clearly disapproving expression, Jiang

Ning couldn't help but laugh in exasperation, “What's the matter? Aren't you convinced?”

Qi Xingzhou retorted in a low voice, “He bullied Jiang Ning, Xingzhou won't allow it.”

In their last two encounters, Jiang Ning had guided him to speak, both deliberately and inadvertently, and since

Qi Xingzhou liked and was willing to respond to Jiang Ning, his sentences had becincreasingly longer.

Jiang Ning'’s heart jolted, but she asked with an unruffled expression, “What if it waswho hit that person

first?”

Without hesitation, Qi Xingzhou replied, “He's bad, deserves to be hit.”

For someone not good at communication, his speech sped up when it cto defending Jiang Ning.

Jiang Ning probed, “Next t| hit someone, will you still help me?”

“Help!” Qi Xingzhou nodded eagerly, his eyes shining brightly.

Jiang Ning: “...” Well, it seemed all the words she had just said to him were in vain.

Jiang Ning sent a message to Ji Shuang, recounting the recent events.

Ji Shuang might have been busy, as there was no reply for the tbeing.

After pondering for a while, Jiang Ning tentatively sent a message to Qi Chen, who replied quickly. Seeing this,

Jiang Ning called Qi Chen and recounted what had just happened.

Qi Chen sat in his office, listening until Jiang Ning finished speaking, then he raised an eyebrow slightly, his voice

deep, “You're saying, Xingzhou hit someone?”

Jiang Ning: “..."”

“Not hit someone, he helped catch a criminal,” Jiang Ning couldn't help but correct Qi Chen, and she looked

down at her phone. She had just explained everything in detail and clarity, so how could Qi Chen have

misunderstood?

Jiang Ning explained the events once more.

Now Qi Chen understood clearly and asked with concern, “Neither of you got hurt, right?”

Jiang Ning: “No.”

Qi Chen confirmed again, “The mountain you climbed today was Kuilong Mountain?”

Jiang Ning: “Yes, yes.”

“Okay, | got it. I'll get someone to delete the surveillance footage,” Qi Chen said with a gentle tone, finally

showing a hint of brotherly composure, “Jiang Ning, thank you for taking Xingzhou out.”

Jiang Ning couldn't deny it, and after ending the call with Qi Chen, she put her phone in her backpack and

descended the mountain with Qi Xingzhou.

After all, it was only because she had taken Qi Xingzhou out that they had encountered the situation, so it was

only proper for her to call the Qi Family and let them know.

Ji Shuang: So this is what Ning Ning toldabout earlier. Look, Xingzhou is even taking the initiative to help

others now!

Qi Jingshan: Not bad, he’s got the spirit of my younger days.

Ji Shuang: Ever since meeting Ning Ning, Xingzhou seems normal. Is there a way for him to spend more time

with Ning Ning?

Qi Chen: | signed a contract with an entertainment company a few days ago, and while entering the data this

afternoon, | discovered that Jiang Ning is a guest on this variety show.

Ji Shuang: What show? You want your brother to go on a variety show too?

Meanwhile, Jiang Ning, who normally took the stairs home, stepped out of the stairwell and immediately spotted

the figure waiting outside her door, unsure how long he had been there.
