Return of the Antagonistic Lady Boss

Chapter 1101: Chapter 1073: What Exactly Is the Tenth Question

”Don’t you dare harm the kids!” The man’s eyes widened, filled with despair, when he heard Qian mention the children.

During these three hours, Qian continuously instilled despair in him, achieving exactly the effect she desired.

”Children? Did you think about those children’s parents when you harmed them? Now, you’re afraid for your descendants, but did you consider those parents? Look up, the eyes of the wronged souls are watching you. Heaven spares no one!”

”Ah!” The man clutched his head and let out a painful scream.

The scene shocked everyone who came in to apprehend him.

They witnessed firsthand how a normal person was driven to madness through bullying.

Qian jumped off the table as everyone rushed forward to apprehend the man on the brink of insanity.

After being caught, the man kept pleading for a quick end and even tried to bash his head against the wall to die, but was held down by everyone.

Qian walked up to him expressionlessly and spoke coldly.

”No one can escape the cycle of heaven’s justice. You are destined to pay for everything you’ve done. It’s certain you’ll pay the price, but before that, you’ll continue to endure the torment of guilt. Even in your last moment, you won’t find relief.”

”Ah!” The man let out a desperate scream, but no one sympathized; instead, they rejoiced at his plight.

Though his fate couldn’t compensate for the evils he committed, Qian felt some relief for the spirits wronged by bringing terror and repentance until the final bullet arrives. Each day this bad man survives, he will live in agony.

”One, your wife has stolen the spotlight,” Qiao Zhen joked upon seeing that Yu Minglang was unharmed.

Yu Minglang looked at Qian full of pity, ”Believe me, she never wanted this kind of attention.”

He walked straight to Qian, and as expected, noticed tears on her face. These were tears shed only after capturing the criminal. Each time she spoke about a victim, she felt their pain; they were in their prime, yet suffered unjustly.

This pain rooted from a normal person’s empathy, making this woman at the top of the pyramid all the more vivid.

Yu Minglang walked over and patted her shoulder.

”It’s all in the past. You should move past the sorrow.”

These words pulled Qian back from the cruel scenes.

While she executed a ruthless psychological breakdown on the villain, she was simultaneously experiencing an immersive sense of justice.

To brainwash the villain early on, she put herself in the villain’s shoes, relaying each scene cold-heartedly. Only when the villain crumbled did she regain her emotions, but during immersion, Qian’s heart was in immense pain.

Playing such a cruel role for someone inherently not cruel takes immense courage. When Qian used the concept of children to destroy the man, she was also suffering.

Her intention was that children are innocent, but to provoke the man, she had to say things contrary to her beliefs—how cruel it was.

The man was taken away, and Yu Minglang should have left as well, but he looked at the shattered pieces on the ground, as if recalling something.

Pretending to gamble with the villain’s life was false, brainwashing the villain was real. Yet, Yu Minglang remembered the bizarre answer to the villain’s tenth question.

Qio Yu Xuan.

The tenth question was Qio Yu Xuan.

But before answering the tenth question, the man had already collapsed psychologically, ripping up the questions in his hands erratically.

So what was the tenth question?

Yu Minglang collected the pieces and put them in his pocket to piece together later—what exactly did this guy want to ask?

Yu Minglang hugged Qian as they stepped out. Many reporters wanted to interview the two heroes of the incident, but Yu Minglang covered Qian’s face with a special hood.

He protected Qian impeccably, his hand never leaving her waist since they stepped out. Outsiders thought he was simply deeply loving, having just returned from the brink of death, but that wasn’t the case. Yu Minglang knew Qian’s emotional state was fragile, and his presence was the pillar supporting her from collapsing, hence why he held her, letting her know he was always there.

Liu Miao, handcuffed in the car, seemed forgotten. Everyone went inside to apprehend the criminal, not realizing her hands had been rubbed raw. At that moment, she saw Yu Minglang escorting Qian out, with that special hood over her face.

Liu Miao didn’t understand why it was like this; she was pondering whether Qian succeeded or failed when the criminal was escorted out, and as he passed her car, he suddenly looked up at her.

The distance between them was only about three meters, a close distance. The criminal’s slight smile sent chills down Liu Miao’s spine.

A second later, the criminal suddenly shouted at Liu Miao, ”You all deserve to die!”

”Shut up!” Those restraining him pushed him into the vehicle, while Liu Miao was already scared out of her wits. Even under control, she found him terrifying, and the more she thought, the more frightened she became, unable to support her body.

Qiao Zhen came over to unlock her, about to quip that with such fear from a mere glance, relying on her to save everyone could have led to trouble, nowhere near as competent as his sister-in-law.

But seeing Liu Miao’s fear-stricken, pale lips, Qiao Zhen felt it unnecessary to say more. He unlocked her and waved the psychological intervention team over to check on Liu Miao—this woman was certainly scared.

Everyone got in the car, with Daya among them.

Qian said nothing after getting in, closing her eyes and leaning against Yu Minglang. His emotions remained stable.

”Go to the address I just gave you and rescue the child immediately.”

”We’ve already found her, Panpan is now with our mom,” Daya said.

”What happened?”

”Qian’s friend Zheng Xu and Aka got there first and found the child. We wanted to inform you when you were inside, but we lost contact, so we didn’t mention it.”

The villain had planned to investigate Panpan for some time before his imprisonment. The initiative came from a chance meeting with Panpan’s mother, learning she once had a son, Panpan.

However, during that time, besides being bullied by the villain, Panpan’s mother was with her then-boyfriend. Whose child it really was, the mother couldn’t clarify, so the villain tried everything to find Panpan, inadvertently connecting to Wang Xiaohong, learning she had bullied Panpan close to autism. After escaping, the first thing he did was find Wang Xiaohong.

The most worrying issue now is whether the villain contacted Wang Xiaohong beforehand, if she knew about the child’s father’s issue, and most importantly, if she told Panpan, which concerns everyone deeply.

”How did he take Panpan away? Does he have accomplices outside?” Qiao Zhen was curious about the whole affair.
