239、Praying mantis catches cicada
One second, two seconds, three seconds... At the other end of his field of vision, the man could already see the girl's expression clearly, and he could hear the panicked screams of pedestrians on the side of the road.
Under the light of the snow-white lamppost, the strange girl named Lu Ningxiang was completely exposed, and there was no possibility of avoiding in front of the fast-moving Passat.
Everything is a certainty, the man's throat slipped, his hands clenched tightly on the steering wheel, and he was ready to be hit head-on by the airbag.
But at the moment when his vision zoomed in rapidly, he met the girl's face.
A pretty face that was terrifyingly calm, with a faint smile on the corner of its mouth!
boom!
There was a huge impact sound, followed by the tooth-piercing sound of rapid braking.
The man in the car rushed forward, and under the force of the momentum of the forward rush, he was about to smash his head on the hard steering wheel.
Fortunately, a piece of white rushed towards him, and his face was deeply sunk in the airbag. Apart from slight dizziness and suffocation, he didn't feel much strange.
Quickly raised his head and shook his head to stay awake, the man gritted his teeth and put the car in gear to back up. Amidst the screams and angry shouts of passers-by, he was preparing for the second impact and crushing.
There is no doubt that he must have bumped into someone just now, but in his panic, he couldn't tell if Lu Ningxiang was caught in the car, or was directly knocked into the air.
Looking around hastily, the man's eyes widened, and suddenly he heard a gentle female voice from outside the car window: "Are you looking for me?"
With a bang, the man's mind went blank, and he was so frightened that his heart missed half a beat.
Twisting his stiff neck, he saw a girl standing outside the car window with a half-smile.
Then, it was supposed to be Lu Ningxiang who was smashed into a bloody body and changed beyond recognition!
The man's eyes were raised and he stared out of the car window. It's impossible, it's absolutely impossible.
How could anyone survive the collision just now?
A gust of cold air rushed straight to his forehead from the soles of his feet, and the man's throat made noises, and he was dumbfounded on the spot by this weird and bizarre scene.
However, before he could react, Lu Ningxiang withdrew her pretty face with a smile, smashed the remaining window glass with her delicate fist, and then grabbed the man by the collar.
"Forgive, spare, spare! I, I also use money to do things, please forgive me, I, I can say anything!"
An irresistible force came from the neckline, and the man felt a blur in front of his eyes, and he flew like a cloud. The seemingly thin Lu Ningxiang lifted him out of the car and threw him into the bushes on the side of the road.
The man used his hands and feet together, gritted his teeth and got up and wanted to escape. Unexpectedly, when his collar tightened again, he was dragged backwards involuntarily.
When he regained his composure, the surrounding area had changed from a street scene to a peaceful small park by the river.
And that girl with frightening skills was looking down from a height with her hands in her pockets.
"I ask, you answer."
Lu Ningxiang didn't have any nonsense, and said directly: "Is the person who instructed you Qin Qingqing?"
The second wife of the Lu family was born in the Qin family, one of the four major families in Jinling, and her maiden name is Qin Qingqing.
In order to obtain enough evidence, he could give this vicious woman a fatal blow.
Lu Ningxiang suppressed her distaste for the Lu family and waited patiently.
Fortunately, Huangtian paid off, perhaps because she felt that Lu Ningxiang's growing wings would pose a potential threat to her status, so Qin Qingqing finally couldn't help but make another move.
It's a pity that people are not as good as heaven.
No matter how hard Qin Qingqing thought, she never expected that Lu Ningxiang today would no longer be the little girl who was almost starved to death in a secret room back then.
As an envoy of virtue, Lu Ningxiang knew very well that she wanted to avenge her biological mother, so she absolutely couldn't have evil thoughts in her heart, let alone kill someone directly.
This layer of identity is her protection and also her fetters.
She has been waiting, waiting for the other party to make the first move, waiting for an opportunity that can ruin Qin Qingqing on the spot.
And now, the opportunity really came.
"Who, who is Qin Qingqing? I don't know."
A look of panic flashed in the man's eyes, and he immediately denied it.
Lu Ningxiang smiled, and pulled out a bottle of small spray and a DV player out of thin air as if by magic.
"..."
The man's face changed wildly, and he secretly guessed that the bottle of spray must be something bad. He was about to struggle, but saw that Lu Ningxiang had already unscrewed the cap of the bottle and pointed the spray head at the tip of his nose.
The southeast corner of the Lu family's old house, in the small courtyard belonging to the second bedroom, is full of lights and festoons.
Today is the second wife's wife Qin Qingqing's birthday, she didn't want to say anything, so she only invited a few female family members who have a good relationship, as well as the second master of the Lu family and other family members to celebrate with her.
"Qingqing, why are you so absent-minded tonight?"
It was the second master of the Lu family who spoke. At the moment, he was sitting on the top of the gazebo, holding a glass of wine and smiling at his real wife: "I wish you a beautiful face and youth."
"Go, they are all in their tens of years, and they are still so unruly."
Qin Qingqing spat softly, blushing and smiling endlessly, and the other juniors at the table also took the opportunity to present congratulatory gifts and auspicious words, and there was laughter inside and outside the courtyard.
Qin Qingqing smiled and nodded one by one, but she was inexplicably anxious. Even if the man didn't succeed, according to the agreement, it was time to pass the news back.
Just when he was a little nervous, the second master of the Lu family glanced around the field, and his face suddenly sank.
"Where's that girl Ningxiang? How dare she not come here to celebrate her adoptive mother's birthday?"
"I heard from the maid in her yard that Ningxiang left the house in the evening, and if you calculate the time, it's time to come back. Don't blame her, young people can't stay idle."
Qin Qingqing comforted softly, but the second master of the Lu family was furious, slammed the table hard, and stood up abruptly.
"For such a grown-up person, she still has a childish temper. It's been a waste of raising her for more than 20 years!"
"Second Uncle, calm down, maybe Sister Ningxiang is going out specially to buy gifts for Second Aunt."
"That's right, although Ningxiang has been a bit eccentric since she was a child, she is not ignorant of the general situation, and she will definitely not mess around on such an important day."
Others also spoke to persuade, the second master of the Lu family was still angry, and called the trembling Lu Ningxiang's personal servant girl, but he didn't ask why.
"Call her and tell her to come back right away. It's really upside down. I can't cure this white-eyed wolf today?"
After the second master of the Lu family finished his roar, a cold voice came from the gate of the courtyard, and everyone was stunned.
"Father, don't bother, I'm back."
Lu Ningxiang, who was dressed in casual clothes, was walking quickly towards the gazebo with a dull-looking strange man, holding a beautifully wrapped gift box in his hand.
"Who is he, how did you bring an outsider to the inner courtyard?!"
The second master of the Lu family patted the table angrily, and said loudly: "Do you still have this mother in your eyes? Have you forgotten who helped you dress and feed you when you were young?!"
"...I didn't forget, so I brought her a congratulatory gift."
Lu Ningxiang was silent for a moment, then opened the gift box in front of everyone, and inside was a small projector.
"Ningxiang, you, you..."
Just when the man was led into the courtyard by Lu Ningxiang, Qin Qingqing's complexion changed slightly, and then he tried hard to restore his soft complexion.
It's just that her tightly pursed lips still fully exposed her state of mind at the moment.
Right now, she suddenly saw that the "birthday gift" that Lu Ningxiang took out was a small projector... Qin Qingqing panicked inexplicably, feeling a faint sense of foreboding.
"Mother, I hand over all the precious data collected over the years to you today."
Lu Ningxiang smiled a little wretchedly. Regardless of her father's extremely gloomy face, she turned on the lens of the projector under the watchful eyes of everyone.
A beam of light was projected onto the dome of the gazebo, and the first thing that appeared in the camera was a signed contract for the transfer of property.
"This is a commercial building that Erfang lost at a loss seven years ago, and then it was transferred to others. Father, do you still have an impression?"
As Lu Ningxiang spoke softly, Qin Qingqing's face changed wildly, and she gritted her teeth and looked at the second master of the Lu family who was as dumb as a chicken.
"However, no one told you, father, that the transfer contract returned to your wife the next day and became her private property, right?"
The words fell, and the audience was in an uproar!
