After ONS: Trapped by the Cunning Professor Chapter 712 - 693: Should We Just Let Them Go Like This

The fearless attitude of Qin Rui Li made Qin Mobai fu instantly; his gun was no longer pointed at Xi Changqing but turned directly towards the center of Qin Rui Li’s forehead.

He quickly released the safety; a gentle pull of the trigger would render Qin Rui Li incapable of ever laughing again.

"There are plenty of ways to make you pay without sending you to the police station!"

From Qin Mobai’s voice, Lou Xi discerned a barely contained anger; he was pointing a gun at his own family! If his family hadn’t pushed him to the point where he had no choice but to retaliate, how could he possibly aim a gun at Qin Rui Li?

Lou Xi was genuinely worried that Qin Mobai might accidentally fire the gun and end Qin Rui Li’s life.

The atmosphere in the bedroom was explosive; it was close to ignition.

When Qin Ruiqian was called by Lou Nan to co over, he saw the scene in the room—his son was pointing a gun at his sister’s head, his brother-in-law lying on the carpet, his condition unknown.

"Mobai, what are you doing?" Qin Ruiqian was quite surprised, as apparently Lou Nan hadn’t explained everything to him earlier.

But Qin Ruiqian was smart; he pieced everything together in his mind and quickly understood what happened!

Seeing his father arrive, Qin Mobai’s hand holding the gun showed bulging veins, and then he withdrew the gun.

"Ask your dear sister what she has done!" Qin Mobai pulled Lou Xi to sit down on the sofa.

His palms were cold, his body trembling slightly, not sure if it was from anger or pain from his wound.

Seeing Qin Mobai like this, Lou Xi felt heartbroken.

Earlier, Qin Ruiqian told Qin Mobai that the mastermind might be Xi Siwei; turns out now the mastermind was his own sister.

What is it about the Qin Family that made Qin Rui Li resort to breaking the law?

"Rui Li, did you really... intend to kill Mobai?" Qin Ruiqian asked in a deep voice.

Qin Rui Li glanced at Xi Changqing lying unconscious on the floor, barely lifting her head to look at Qin Ruiqian, "If he doesn’t die, how would my son beco Family Head, how—"

"Smack—" Before Qin Rui Li could finish her sentence, Qin Ruiqian slapped her across the face, "You are my sister, he is my son, how could you lay hands on your nephew? Do you even consider us family?"

Qin Ruiqian was so furious he nearly passed out; how could he have such a ruthless sister?

Qin Rui Li’s face was swung to the right by the slap, her cheek burning with pain.

...

Lou Xi no longer wanted to witness the drama; she turned and looked at Qin Mobai’s slightly pale face, "Are you alright?"

"It’s fine."

"You always say it’s fine, but the person most affected is you!" Lou Xi scolded softly, "Given the circumstances, why not call the police? Let them handle it!"

Qin Mobai placed one hand on Lou Xi’s back, gently soothing her anxious and worried emotions, "I can’t call the police. Once the police are involved, the Qin Family will be mired in scandalous internal conflict. Grandpa once said, a single chopstick is easy to break, but a bundle is hard to snap. I can’t let Grandpa wake up to see the Qin Family in disarray."

Thus, even if Qin Mobai dearly wished for Qin Rui Li and Xi Changqing to pay for their deeds, he wouldn’t choose to call the police.

This was the burden and pressure he must bear as the successor of the Qin Family.

"So, you’re just going to let them off?"

"No."
