"Mu Wan, what are you doing!"

Ning Muwan had barely pulled the oxygen mask away from the old man's mouth and nose when Zhou Manyun, who had come to visit, caught her red-handed.

At first, Zhou Manyun didn't think that Ning Muwan wanted to kill the old man, until she approached the hospital bed and found that the old man was breathing heavily without oxygen, his face was flushed, and he looked like he was about to faint at any moment. Instinctively, she grabbed Ning Muwan's hand and questioned, "What are you doing? Do you know that your grandfather is living with these machines? Do you want him to die?"

As he spoke, he put the oxygen mask back on the old man.

Ning Hong was in a daze, his consciousness was blurred, and he was unable to open his eyes, but he could vaguely hear the conversation between the mother and daughter.

Ning Muwan said quietly, "He is not my grandfather."

Ning Hong's dazed consciousness was instantly jolted awake!

Zhou Manyun's eyes widened in disbelief. "Mu Wan, what nonsense are you talking about? Are you crazy!"

“I said, he’s not my biological grandfather, what, isn’t he?”

A sinister smile appeared on Ning Muwan's lips. "Mom, I know everything. Don't be silly. That old man gave most of the property to outsiders, and only gave you 20% like he was throwing money at a beggar. Don't you resent it? Don't you hate him? You've worked like a slave for the Ning family for most of your life, and this is how he treats you!"

Her delicate, slender fingers had become rough and calloused from being away for four years, with her knuckles slightly deformed.

At this moment, with these deformed fingers pointing at Ning Hong, who was dying on the hospital bed, her attitude was terrible and her words were cruel. Zhou Manyun could hardly believe that this was actually her smart and bright daughter whom she had watched grow up since she was a child!

She clutched her chest in anguish, "Mu Wan, you're so heartless, how could you say that?"

No matter what, Grandpa and I have always truly loved you. Even though we knew you and our real child were switched at birth, we never intended to make things difficult for you.

Grandpa was ill, so he was inevitably more sensitive. He changed his will because he felt he owed Chu Yuan too much...

As for Mo Chen, he deserved it. If it weren't for his help managing the Ning family business over the years, the Ning family would probably have gone bankrupt long ago!

Ning Muwan couldn't stop laughing after hearing this. "Haha, hahaha, you didn't give me a single penny, and you call that not making things difficult for me?"

Ms. Zhou, do you really think that slapping me twice and being cold to me is making things difficult for me?!

Let me tell you, compared to real money, I don't care about these cheap sentiments at all!

"Mu Wan, you... don't say such hurtful things. Mom still loves you. I'll give you all 20%, okay?" Zhou Manyun hugged her tightly. Seeing Ning Mu Wan's crazy state, her heart still ached.

This is the child she has cherished for over twenty years, raising him bit by bit!

But Ning Muwan wouldn't budge, forcefully breaking free from her embrace. "You're giving me 20%? Ridiculous! Why should I agree? Everything in the Ning family is mine! What Chu Yuan, what Ning Mochen, they all deserve to die!"

Zhou Manyun trembled upon hearing this, her lips quivering as she asked, "What...what did you do?"

Ning Muwan smiled smugly, "Mom, it'll be soon... Don't stop me, let me take off the old man's oxygen mask, so that he can meet Chu Yuan and Ning Mochen together in the underworld as a family of three and continue to be a loving family, okay?"

Mother!

I know you're the best to me, and you only have me in your heart.

Please, please grant my wish! With the money, we can go abroad, travel the world, and live a carefree life. Wouldn't that be wonderful?

Snap—

In response to Ning Muwan, Zhou Manyun gritted her teeth and swung her arm to deliver a slap across the face!

Ning Muwan was stunned for a few seconds after being hit. When she came to her senses, she rammed into Zhou Manyun, causing the latter to fall onto the medical trolley.

She rushed to the hospital bed, frantically trying to kill the old man!

Zhou Manyun felt heartbroken looking at Ning Muwan, who was so ruthless and terrifying for money that she would turn her back on her family.

After shedding a tear, I got up and pressed the emergency call button!

Because it was a VVIP special care ward, with staff on standby at all times, doctors and nurses rushed in quickly, pulled Ning Muwan away, and saved Ning Hong, who was barely alive.

Ning Muwan was restrained by the crowd, laughing and cursing with venomous eyes, "Zhou Manyun, you actually won't help me? You're not a good mother! I don't have a stepmother like you!"

Chu Yuan, she will definitely die! Just you wait and see!

And the baby in her belly!

"Heh, you're destined to be alone for the rest of your life. This is the price you pay for not helping me!"

Zhou Manyun covered her mouth and burst into tears. Heartache, pain, and regret overwhelmed her, and she almost fainted.

Just then, the old man on the hospital bed struggled to reach out a hand and slowly grabbed her hem, "Save...save them..."

Zhou Manyun snapped out of her daze, quickly wiped away her tears, and vowed, "Dad, don't worry, if I can't save Chu Yuan and Mo Chen, I won't come back!"

It was her indulgence of Mu Wan that led to today's consequences.

If Chu Yuan and Mo Chen both... then how can she have the face to return to the Ning family!

At this moment, Zhou Manyun saw Ning Muwan's cruel and bloodthirsty nature clearly. Raising such a daughter was Zhou Manyun's biggest failure!

At the same moment, on the Death Mountain Path—

Chu Yuan only had time to tighten her seatbelt with both hands. In just a few seconds of reaction time, Ning Mochen swerved the steering wheel sharply to the right, and the car made a 360-degree turn in an instant, using the right rear of the car to absorb the impact.

With a loud bang, the car almost overturned, but managed to stay upright.
