Qin Shi was normally such a calm and composed girl, but at this moment she was in a complete panic, tears streaming down her face.

On the night her sister had rescued her from human traffickers, she had secretly vowed to work hard and protect her sister.

Her sister was more important to her than anyone else, even more important than her own life.

But she was still just a teenager who didn’t understand many things. Seeing blood on the person she was closest to, she was momentarily stunned.

Qin Jiao, on the other hand, was a bit calmer, but the pain from her contractions made her face turn pale as cold sweat dripped down her skin.

She said, "Xiao Shi, I think I’m going into labor. Don’t panic. I’m counting on you for a lot of things."

Xiao Shi wiped away her tears and said through gritted teeth, "I’m not panicking, Sister. Just tell me. What do you need me to do?"

"I’ve figured it out. They brought us somewhere out in the wilderness. It’s too late to go to a hospital now. I’m afraid... I’ll have to give birth here."

Xiao Shi’s hands trembled. She gritted her teeth and said, "Sister, what do you need me to do?"

"The tools here are quite complete. Go draw water from the well outside, then boil it. Also, boil the scissors and other things. And... there will be a lot of blood later. Don’t be scared..."

In truth, Qin Jiao had no experience with this either. But deep down, she was a person who had lived two lives. She had seen more of the world, and most importantly, she had no other choice right now.

The people outside were all malicious toward her, especially Lin Nian. If Lin Nian tried to pull something while she was giving birth, she could lose both herself and the baby!

Qin Jiao didn’t dare to risk it.

This was the second life she had fought so hard to get, the happiness she had fought so hard to find.

’But I will make Lin Nian, Shen Feng, and Lu Jiuan pay for this!’

’If I survive this, I’m going to make those three pay!’

As another wave of pain hit, Qin Jiao gritted her teeth and directed Xiao Shi, telling her what to do. Before long, the smell of blood filled the room.

With red-rimmed eyes, Xiao Shi boiled water and gave it to Qin Jiao to drink. The Spiritual Spring Water she drank seemed to hold an endless power, giving Qin Jiao the strength to endure.

Meanwhile, the three people scuffling outside finally stopped.

Lin Nian had truly almost been strangled to death by Shen Feng.

Shen Feng, held back tightly by Lu Jiuan, was still glaring daggers at Lin Nian.

At this moment, Shen Feng’s heart was filled with a profound sense of loss. He now realized that if Lin Nian hadn’t interfered, the wonderful life he had dreamed of would have been real.

He would have married Qin Jiao. He would have become a man above all others, the richest man in North City.

’And now, that bitch Lin Nian has ruined everything!’

Lu Jiuan shouted, "Shen Feng, what the hell are you doing? The most important thing right now is to get Shen Yi’s technology! Can we deal with everything else later or not?"

He had also staked his entire fortune and future on this. For them, the most important thing now was to make money and bring their company back from the brink.

Shen Feng finally stopped struggling, and Lu Jiuan let go of him with a sigh of relief.

At the same time, Lin Nian finally recovered. She looked at Shen Feng with a mixture of resentment and fear, but at this point, she didn’t dare say anything more to provoke him.

Seeing that they had both calmed down, Lu Jiuan breathed a sigh of relief.

He said, "Shen Feng, go call Shen Yi. Tell him we’ve invited Qin Jiao to be our guest. Have him transfer the technology to our company immediately. My uncle is waiting on his end."
