From Nun to Real Heiress: Expert at Turning the Tables

Chapter 601: 308 Danger (first update)

The staff member saw Ming Jing hand the microphone to the host, a slight curve forming at the corner of his lips before quickly disappearing.

He walked straight to Ming Jing and handed her the microphone in his hand.

Ming Jing naturally reached out and took it.

To the audience, all of this seemed perfectly normal.

All of a sudden, the staff member stepped back, raising his head to reveal muddy eyes filled with malicious intent, reminiscent of a venomous snake flicking its tongue.

With his back to the audience and the live camera, only Ming Jing could see him.

The host had yet to notice.

The girl in front of the camera maintained a gentle and composed demeanor, but the depths of her eyes suddenly darkened, like a seemingly bottomless pool, exuding a mesmerizing allure.

“Damn you, die!” The man yelled, and suddenly pulled out a glass bottle from his pocket, twisting open the cap…

Everything happened in the blink of an eye; the man was so fast that he seemed to open the cap in just 0.01 seconds.

While the crowd was still in a panic, Ming Jing pulled the stunned host back a step, but the host was so frightened that she tripped over the cable, falling to the floor in an extremely awkward manner.

The man then poured the liquid from the bottle all over the host on the ground.

It turned out that he was targeting the host, not Ming Jing.

Ming Jing’s actions were faster than her thoughts; she lunged and rolled on the ground with the host, a faint sizzling sound accompanying their movement. Amidst the chaos, the host looked on in shock at the face in front of her.

The smooth, flawless complexion showed no signs of makeup; pure and natural. Her eyebrows seemed untrimmed, wildly sprawling, slanting long and narrow towards her temples, yet strikingly beautiful. The natural and unadorned charm gave off a sense of exuberant vigor, exemplifying the wonder of divine crafting.

At this moment, her eyebrows slightly furrowed, seemingly enduring pain, pulling at one’s heartstrings.

Just as the man threw the bottle, a shadow leaped onto the stage from below, subduing the man within moments. Despite the man’s struggle, his opponent dislocated both of his shoulders with ease. Screaming in agony, the man passed out.

Panic broke out beneath the stage, as policemen escorted Mr. Shen away, while others swiftly retreated.

Shen Ke briskly approached Shen Zhou: “Sir, this place is not safe; let me take you away.”

Shen Zhou pushed through the crowd, fighting against the surge of people. His typically calm face displayed frustration and anger: “You better pray that Ming Jing is okay, or else…”

Shen Zhou suddenly clutched his chest, his face paling from pain.

“Sir.” Shen Ke hurriedly supported him.

Shen Zhou tightly gripped his hand: “Find out who did this…and don’t let them get away with it.”

As if struck by a sudden thought, Shen Zhou abruptly turned his head. Amidst the chaos and noise of the audience, a woman in a peacock-green dress sat calmly and elegantly, her composed demeanor contrasting sharply with the surrounding frenzy, drawing all eyes to her.

“Madam Jiang…” The words almost seemed squeezed from between clenched teeth.

Shen Ke shuddered: “Sir…”

Shen Zhou turned back: “Go check on Ming Jing first; make sure someone keeps an eye on that villain – don’t let him die.”

The police quickly dispersed the crowd while Sun Xiaofeng, the captain of the criminal police team in charge of venue security, rushed to the stage. He aimed his gun at the black-clothed youth who subdued the assailant.

“Who are you?”

Unexpectedly, he hadn’t noticed when the youth had slipped in; by the time everyone reacted, he had already restrained the villain. Sun Xiaofeng hadn’t even seen how he had done it.

The youth wore a black outfit, with a slender frame concealed by a mask and baseball cap. Like a shadow hidden within the darkness of the night, he emanated an air of mystery.

Upon hearing the question, the youth scoffed disdainfully: “Trash.”

Ran Tengxiao’s gaze appeared bottomless, emanating an eerie coldness.

Ye Jian immediately dispatched someone to gather information. As the area was full of police, it wasn’t convenient for Master Xiao to reveal himself.

“Master Xiao, something’s not quite right about today’s events; it seems like it’s targeted at us.” Ye Jian felt apprehensive, for the situation had escalated significantly.

Ran Tengxiao sneered: “This is a provocation; it seems she can’t help but make her move. That man must not escape alive. Make sure it’s done cleanly.”

“Yes.” Ye Jian hurriedly left.

Ran Tengxiao stared intently at the black-clothed youth on the monitor: “Xi Yu, you’ve finally revealed yourself.”

The live broadcast was forcibly terminated, but the online community had already erupted into turmoil.Suddenly, a villain appeared and attacked the host, and Ming Jing unexpectedly rushed out to save the host.

If the villain dared to do such a thing, it was impossible that he would just throw water, it should be sulfuric acid if guessed correctly. Ming Jing took the hit for the host, not knowing if she was okay.

For a moment, everyone’s heart was lifted, and those who said Ming Jing was using charity as a show could no longer speak.

Faced with danger, the first response for people was to protect themselves, yet Ming Jing threw herself at it for a stranger without hesitation.

What a courage and kindness.

Even the blindest person couldn’t say that it was a show.

The top search list has been dominated by Ming Jing’s name, and major forums are dominated by discussions, and TV news has also started emergency broadcasts.

Ming Jing’s phone was also blown up by relatives and friends.

“Miss, are you okay?” The host came to her senses and immediately got up with red eyes.

Ming Jing looked her up and down: “Are you hurt?”

The host’s name was Cao Yue, and she couldn’t help but cry when she heard this. Miss’s first concern was whether she was hurt, even though she herself was hurt.

Cao Yue shook her head tearfully, looking at Ming Jing’s arm: “Miss, your hand has been splashed with sulfuric acid, does it hurt?”

Ming Jing dodged in time, but a few drops still splashed on her arm. This was a strong concentrated sulfuric acid, very corrosive. Ming Jing’s sleeve was already corroded, and a few nail-sized black spots appeared on her white and tender skin, looking shockingly startling on that delicate and white complexion.

The sulfuric acid splashed on the stage, causing a large area of the wooden floor to collapse. Nowhere it went was left untouched, which showed the high concentration of sulfuric acid. If it had splashed on someone, the consequences were unimaginable.

Ming Jing shook her head with a smile: “It doesn’t hurt.”

Cao Yue cried out: “How could it not hurt, that was sulfuric acid! Miss… I… I owe you my life, my life belongs to you in this life and the next, you are my savior.”

Ming Jing wiped her tears, “Your life is yours, not anyone else’s. In fact, today’s incident was my fault, that villain was targeting me.”

Cao Yue shook her head desperately. She didn’t care who the villain was targeting, she only saw that when the sulfuric acid was about to splash on her, Ming Jing didn’t hesitate to rush over and save her. In the nick of time, her life hung in the balance.

“Ming Jing, are you okay?” Shen Zhou rushed over and saw Ming Jing standing there unscathed, completely relieved.

When he saw the injury on Ming Jing’s arm, his eyes instantly darkened.

Cao Yue was afraid and dared not breathe.

Shen Zhou, the rumored big boss Shen Zhou was so close to her, and his serious face was really scary.

Ming Jing hid her hand behind her back; “Brother, I’m fine.”

She then walked past Shen Zhou to the front of the stage, “Officer Sun, he is my friend.”

Sun Xiaofeng put away his gun: “So it turns out he was Miss Ming Jing’s friend, I’m sorry.”

Sun Xiaofeng was still very impressed with Ming Jing, who saved lives at the risk of danger, not everyone had such courage.

This girl was not only intelligent but also decisive.

Shi Ba picked up the fainted man from the ground as if he were holding a chicken: “What should we do with this guy?”

Ming Jing said calmly: “Let’s leave it to Officer Sun. I believe the officer will enforce the law impartially and find the real culprit behind the scenes.”

Sun Xiaofeng touched his nose. When Ming Jing said this, there was no flattery, just sincerity that made people believe.

Shiba immediately said, “No.”

Ming Jing said softly, “Be good.”

Sun Xiaofeng rubbed his arms, like coaxing a child.

Shi Ba snorted and threw the man at Sun Xiaofeng’s feet: “If he dies, you won’t live either.”

Sun Xiaofeng resisted the urge to pull out his gun. The boy was so arrogant and threatening to the police at such a young age. If it weren’t for Miss Ming Jing’s sake, he would’ve taken him to the police station for a good lesson today.

Sun Xiaofeng quickly evacuated with the man.

“Ming Jing, are you okay? You really had me worried for a while.” Jiang Chunlan walked over with graceful steps.

Ming Jing’s eyes rippled slightly, a faint smile on her face: “Madam put in a lot of effort, I’m fine.
