Chapter 14: The Crime of Gender 14

Chapter 14 - 14: The Crime of Gender 14Don't underestimate Old Chen just because she's not young anymore. This sudden outburst showed her hands and feet were quite agile, and Qin Shuangshuang couldn't dodge in time, resulting in half her hair being chopped off by Old Chen with a kitchen knife! Luckily, it didn't actually chop her head. This gave Qin Shuangshuang quite the fright! She broke out in a cold sweat! It was so close! So close to being killed by Old Chen! If Qin Shuangshuang had been killed by Old Chen, the latter wouldn't lose much. Since Old Chen was Qin Shuangshuang's grandmother, even if she really killed her, there wouldn't be much consequence, at most a worse reputation! It's not because she's Qin Shuangshuang's grandmother that killing her wouldn't matter, but because according to the laws at the time, although it stated that elders besides parents who killed a junior not their own child would face punishment, if the child's parents, mainly the father, would issue a letter of forgiveness, the perpetrator wouldn't be held accountable! Qin Shuangshuang never doubted that her father, Qin Laoer, who would curry favor with Old Chen, would send his own daughter to be butchered like livestock at someone else's house, would blame his mother for killing his daughter and refuse to forgive her. So Old Chen's sudden attack truly shocked Qin Shuangshuang, and after the fright came a pounding heart from distress and anger! Ever since she was reborn, with memories of her past life and innate enormous strength, Qin Shuangshuang was somewhat proud. Although her past life was bitter and lonely, wandering with no place to return to for half her life! These experiences, while providing Qin Shuangshuang with endless suffering, also granted her insight and knowledge far exceeding ordinary people's lifetimes! Therefore, after gaining the power to crush the Qin Family, Qin Shuangshuang never thought Old Chen could do anything to her! In Qin Shuangshuang's heart, although Old Chen was disgusting, at most she could only scold her mercilessly, not cause her any substantial harm, so although Qin Shuangshuang was constantly at odds with Old Chen, she never really took her seriously! Now, being careless almost got her chopped by Old Chen, whom she didn't take seriously! While feeling a bit ashamed and angry, Qin Shuangshuang cautioned herself not to underestimate anyone for any reason, even if that person could be subdued with one hand! Seeing that this strike failed to hit Qin Shuangshuang but successfully chopped her hair, Old Chen was encouraged! One must say, Old Chen was somewhat afraid of Qin Shuangshuang. Although Qin Shuangshuang never dared to do anything to her, at most verbally opposing her, Old Chen never forgot the deep-seated pain suffered when Qin Shuangshuang was only a few months old! And every time she tried to hit Mrs. Bai afterward, she was overpowered by this granddaughter with one hand, feeling utterly powerless! Old Chen always feared what if one day Qin Shuangshuang, on impulse, decided not to put up with her and took real action! This is why Old Chen was always restrained and often left embarrassed in front of Qin Shuangshuang, not daring to truly provoke her! But human endurance has limits, and today's incident happened to break Old Chen's threshold, her anger clouding her mind, forgetting the potential fear of Qin Shuangshuang and raised the knife again! Who knew she would actually manage to hit Qin Shuangshuang once? This encouraged Old Chen, making her excited, and she couldn't help but brandish the kitchen knife again fiercely towards Qin Shuangshuang, this time aiming at her neck! This time Qin Shuangshuang was prepared and naturally couldn't let Old Chen succeed again. She grabbed Old Chen's wrist holding the knife!

Initially, Qin Shuangshuang planned to snatch the knife from Old Chen's hand, but while holding Old Chen's hand, she happened to face the doorway and, through the fence wall, saw the village chief and Qin Sheng, Aunt Hao, along with several villagers heading in her direction. Qin Shuangshuang's mind turned. This Old Chen caused trouble for her and her mother daily, with other family members either watching coldly or fanning the flames, always hoping for a larger commotion! The Eldest Lady indeed had a good heart, like bamboo from a wicked source bearing fine shoots, but sadly, as a daughter and a child, her situation wasn't much better than Qin Shuangshuang's, just avoiding scolding and beating, and her words carried less weight than Qin Shuangshuang's to make Old Chen cautious! Whether it was what she experienced, her mother's death ordeal, Qin Shuangshuang felt all were likely tied to the Qin Family's doing. No matter sooner or later, she had to take her mother and leave this home. But Mrs. Bai was such a timid person, she might not have the courage to leave with Qin Shuangshuang, and breaking away from the Qin Family wasn't easy either, so why not take this opportunity to make a big deal out of it? At worst, if she couldn't break away now, it would lay the groundwork for leaving the Qin Family in the future! Though Qin Shuangshuang thought a lot, it actually happened in an instant, and she decisively squeezed Old Chen's hand downward, lightly grazing a cut on her neck! With this cut, blood gushed out instantly, quickly staining a large patch of Qin Shuangshuang's shoulder red! At once, it looked quite terrifying! Actually, Qin Shuangshuang was very precise with this move, choosing a spot where the neck meets the shoulder, only slicing the outer skin, the cut was narrow and shallow! It looked like there was a lot of bleeding, and the wound was long, appearing quite severe, but it was merely a flesh wound. Although Old Chen's hand was used to cut Qin Shuangshuang, due to Qin Shuangshuang's swift action, Old Chen didn't feel like she was being controlled by Qin Shuangshuang, thinking instead that Qin Shuangshuang's grip on her hand was not timely, causing her to actually cut Qin Shuangshuang. Because the wound below Qin Shuangshuang's neck looked frightening and bled a lot, even in such a short time, the blood almost soaked half her body! Seeing the blood woke up Old Chen with a start! The initial anger clouding her mind was extinguished by this sudden turn, leaving not even a spark! Especially seeing Qin Shuangshuang looking like a bloody apparition, Old Chen thought she had truly injured Qin Shuangshuang severely, leaving her dumbfounded, with fear and panic flooding her heart, she had no idea how to react, standing there in shock. Naturally, Qin Shuangshuang wouldn't consider being considerate of Old Chen's feelings, and seeing the village chief and others had reached the doorway, Qin Shuangshuang seized the moment to shake off Old Chen and rushed out! "Ah——"
