AMRWFA -Chapter 153 Someone You Can’t Afford to Provoke

Ruan Yaoyao and Yu Xiangqiao: “……”

【Impressive!】

【As expected of a yandere!】

But Yu Xiangqiao felt a chill run down her spine. Even though this time it was technically “acting bravely for a just cause,” she had the strange feeling that Jiang Ying had simply enjoyed herself.

Also—wasn’t Jiang Ying supposed to be looking for Jian Lichang? Then why was she there?

Clearly, Jiang Ying had struck the hardest, yet among the three of them, she was the least injured.

At this moment, Jiang Ying was lying in bed, looking weak as she said, “I went to find Lichang at the time. How would I know she was hiding such a big person there…”

“Didn’t you hear something and tell everyone to stay outside and not move?”

The moment Yu Xiangqiao said that, Jiang Ying shot her a glare. Yu Xiangqiao instantly understood—she was putting on an act for her godmother.

Why did she have to interrupt? Was she asking for trouble?!

But then again, hadn’t Jiang Ying overlooked something? When the police called, her mom would definitely ask more questions.

Sure enough, she heard her mother, Ruan Yaoyao, say, “Jiang Ying was just afraid others would get hurt if they went in. Lu Yuanqing was so fierce—what could they have done to help?”

Yu Xiangqiao fell silent.

Mom… do you even hear what you’re saying?

If Lu Yuanqing was that dangerous, others couldn’t help—so she could?

But recalling how many times Lu Yuanqing had been stabbed, Yu Xiangqiao decided to shut up.

Well… she did help.

Just in a very “thorough” way.

Ruan Yaoyao held Jiang Ying’s hand, comforting her repeatedly, saying how lucky it was she had been there—otherwise Jian Lichang would have suffered.

In situations like this, if anyone should suffer, it should be Lu Yuanqing—not them, the victims.

Yu Xiangqiao: Mom, wait a second.

Jiang Ying stabbed him that many times, each strike avoiding vital points… and you’re sure she’s the victim?

A trained victim?

Yu Xiangqiao looked at Jiang Ying with subtle suspicion.

Jiang Ying wasn’t a nurse—how could every stab be so precise? How long had she practiced in private?

If someone ever provoked her…

Wouldn’t they end up worse than Lu Yuanqing? Stabbed into a sieve, yet not dead?

Which also meant—

If she really wanted to kill someone, every strike would hit its mark.

And yet, at this moment, Jiang Ying was acting all soft, clinging to Ruan Yaoyao: “Godmother, I was so scared back then…”

“Don’t be afraid. I’m here. I’ll protect you.” Ruan Yaoyao gently stroked her head, full of concern. “Don’t worry. He’s been caught, and he’s more badly hurt than you. There’s no way he’s escaping this time. If he does, I’ll beat up my third son.”

“Achoo—!”

The innocent Ru Anzhi sneezed, wondering if his mother was thinking about him.

“Mm! I believe you, godmother. With you here, I’m not afraid.” Jiang Ying held Ruan Yaoyao’s hand against her cheek, looking obedient and sweet.

Ruan Yaoyao’s heart softened even more, showering her with comforting words.

What she didn’t see was Jiang Ying shooting a provocative glance at Jian Lichang:

See that? Godmother loves me more.

Jian Lichang was furious, repeatedly reminding herself: She’s my savior… she’s my savior…

Ahhh! I really want to stab her!

So what if she’s good at competing for affection? I still have my own parents! Unlike her—a nobody, an orphan!

She crossed her arms and turned her head away.

Yu Xiangqiao: “……”

You’re all amazing.

One isn’t afraid of dying, and the other is actually capable of killing.

Yu Xiangqiao silently “live-streamed” the scene, sharing it with everyone in the group, and added: “Take it easy from now on. Anyone not afraid of dying can keep going…”

The Xu family: “……”

“Thanks for the live broadcast!”

“Definitely a yandere female lead—confirmed.”

“A married daughter is like spilled water. She’s just a goddaughter anyway—she’ll get married eventually.”

“Her boyfriend is Yu Yang, right?”

…

Yu Xiangqiao glanced at that last message—it was from her husband.

So… he was planning to deal with Jiang Ying through Yu Yang?

She wanted to reply: “Did you forget Yu Yang cheated?”

Xu Lianghan: “Just don’t tell her.”

Yu Xiangqiao rolled her eyes: “If I don’t, do you think Mom won’t? Who do you take her for?”

Xu Lianghan: “She’s a yandere. Yu Yang is the person she loves most. Do you really think she’d give him up over a flaw? The most likely outcome is that she eliminates the flaw. And how fast do you think she’ll “solve” it?”

“You can’t judge a yandere’s mind by normal logic.”

Yu Xiangqiao: “……”

She understood what her husband meant—but it still felt unpleasant.

What, just because they’re afraid Jiang Ying might kill someone, they want to deceive her for life?

Why should she accept that?

Coincidentally, her dissatisfaction faded soon after.

Because she realized—if Jiang Ying really wanted to “deal with” Yu Yang, he might end up getting sold and still help count the money.

The reason was simple: Yu Yang had taken a liking to Jiang Ying. His agent, Sister Qiao, didn’t approve and secretly made things difficult for Jiang Ying.

Now that Jiang Ying was hospitalized for acting bravely, Sister Qiao stirred up trouble on set, spreading rumors that made it sound like Jiang Ying had killed someone.

Before Jiang Ying even returned, all her scenes as a major villain had been completely cut.

Jiang Ying hadn’t even gotten her fill of acting yet. Furious, she stormed into Yu Yang’s hotel room—and tied Sister Qiao up.

“You like messing with me and cutting my scenes? Fine. I’ll end you!”

She waved a knife in front of Sister Qiao, vividly recounting how many times she had stabbed Lu Yuanqing—each strike avoiding vital points.

If Sister Qiao wanted to test it, she didn’t mind turning her into a sieve.

What terrified Sister Qiao even more was this—

When Yu Yang walked in, Jiang Ying casually said they were “rehearsing a scene.”

And he actually believed her.

Not only that, he praised Sister Qiao’s performance, saying she perfectly captured the essence of a victim, and even suggested she try acting more often.

“Consider it expanding your career path!”

He even grabbed a bag of sunflower seeds and added, “Mind if I watch while snacking?”

Sister Qiao was terrified.

But Jiang Ying grew even more excited.

Because she was genuinely about to commit a crime—and yet someone right there thought it was just acting.

Hahaha…

When she looked at Yu Yang, it was like she was looking at an adorable little pet.

When she looked at Sister Qiao, it was like staring at prey that could never escape.

Yu Xiangqiao: …

Amazing.

You two really know how to play.

So Sister Qiao is just part of your “game,” huh?

She felt a bit sorry for her—but ultimately decided she knew nothing.

Turning back to her mother, Ruan Yaoyao, who was happily enjoying the drama, she realized—

This situation wasn’t actually “dangerous.”

After all, if Jiang Ying truly wanted to kill someone, she wouldn’t be “broadcasting” it.

Still, the group chat had suddenly gone very quiet.

Yu Xiangqiao tagged several people, but no one responded.

Eventually, Yun Jinxian told her to stop tagging.

She didn’t know about others, but Xu Chengyan was already pacing anxiously at her place.

Yun Jinxian: “I wonder if anyone will dare to compete for affection again.”

Yu Xiangqiao: “Hard to say! Life matters more than Mom!”

Yun Jinxian: “What a pity. I thought we could enjoy the drama for a few more days.”

Yu Xiangqiao: “As long as my mom’s around, there’ll never be a shortage of drama. Just wait—peace won’t last long. I feel like my mom has fully inherited Conan’s physique.”

Yun Jinxian: “Do you dare say that to her face?”

Yu Xiangqiao: “Spare me, Your Majesty! I still want to live a few more years!”
