Archaeology is archaeology, why dig me up?

Chapter 19 This is too much!

The dimly lit house was filled with all sorts of odds and ends. Shen Qiuxia was Su Qianxue's mother, and she usually made a living by doing handicrafts and cleaning.

For several years, Su Qianxue also lived here.

Because she went to university, and this place was far from Jiangzhou University, Su Qianxue moved to live with Tang Xiaoxiao near the school.

Several thugs with blond hair were standing in the hallway, blocking the wooden door of Shen Qiuxia's house and intimidating and threatening Su Qianxue and her daughter inside.

"You, you beasts."

"I've already paid my rent here, so why are you suddenly raising it?"

"If you dare to touch my daughter, I'll fight you to the death."

"Qianxue, don't be afraid, Mom will protect you."

"Mom, I'm not afraid. My friends will definitely come to save me."

Su Qianxue's eyes reddened; this wasn't the first time these thugs had come to harass her and her daughter.

Calling the police is useless; they run away when the police come, and they come back after the police leave.

They had moved before because they couldn't stand it, but no matter where they moved, these people would follow them.

Su Qianxue couldn't understand why before.

But now she understands that someone must be behind it all, instructing them to deliberately target her mother.

"Hahaha," a blond-haired man laughed loudly, "Why?"

"This entire area, and even many places, is my brother Kun's territory. If he says he'll raise the rent, then he'll raise the rent."

"Forget it, I'm too lazy to waste my breath on you."

"Brothers, let's do it!"

"Take this beauty back and hand her over to Brother Kun."

"You dare! If you dare to step into this place, I'll kill myself!"

Shen Qiuxia took a kitchen knife from the kitchen and brandished it. This scene not only intimidated the thugs, but also frightened Su Qianxue.

"Mom, no!"

"How much money do you want? We'll pay you, we'll pay you, okay?"

"Mom, put the knife down quickly."

"You're my only family left, sob sob..."

Upon hearing this, the thugs said smugly, "Hehe, a thousand yuan for rent, and three thousand yuan for our hard work."

"After that, the monthly rent increased from five hundred to one thousand."

"You either stay here, or you'll be homeless on the streets nearby."

"On what grounds?"

"This is blatant robbery! My mother works hard for a little over a thousand yuan a month and still needs to take medicine."

"We simply can't come up with that much money."

"Can we not stay here anymore?"

"Hmph, Su Qianxue, Shen Qiuxia, you don't have to stay here, but our Brother Kun specifically instructed that you should be given special care."

"There's a dog kennel not far downstairs that we can rent to you at a cheaper price. What do you think?"

"You've gone too far!"

Shen Qiuxia was so angry that she suddenly felt breathless and broke out in a cold sweat.

"Mom, Mom, how are you?"

"Waaah, Mom, please take your medicine!"

"Brother Long, haven't we gone a bit too far?"

"Brother Kun only told us to cause trouble for this mother and daughter once a month, not to actually drive them to their deaths."

The blond-haired leader responded coldly, "Hmph, the brothers are a bit strapped for cash lately, and the money we make from opening car doors is getting less and less."

"If we don't make any extra money, what are you guys going to eat for dinner tonight?"

"With such womanly compassion, how will she follow me to accomplish great things in the future?"

"Get to work and take all the money from them."

Just as the thugs were about to force their way in, the dimly lit stairwell suddenly glowed with golden light, and a figure appeared behind them without anyone noticing.

Upon seeing this figure, Su Qianxue's eyes reddened, and her suppressed emotions erupted instantly.

She knew that she would be safe once he appeared.

One of the thugs standing at the back felt a chill run down his spine. He turned around and exclaimed, "Holy crap, kid, you..."

"Where did you come from?"

"Dressed like that, are you kidding me?"

"Get lost if you have nothing to do."

Gu Lingchen's eyes revealed a strong killing intent, and the surrounding temperature dropped rapidly.

"Damn it, didn't you hear me tell you to get lost?"

"I'll fucking kill you..."

"Ah, ah, ah, my hand, it's broken, it's broken."

"Click~"

The sound of bones breaking and screams echoed in the corridor at the same time. The thug who had been threatening Gu Lingchen was curled up on the ground, clutching his arms and trembling with pain.

Upon seeing this, Brother Long, the leader, broke out in a cold sweat.

In Gu Lingchen's eyes, he saw a murderous intent and chilling aura he had never seen before.

"Kid, do you know who we are?"

"You dare touch us?"

Upon hearing this, Gu Lingchen extended his right hand and then gently pressed it down. Boom!

Under the pressure of an invisible force, the leg bones of several thugs were shattered, and all of them collapsed to the ground, trembling and screaming in agony.

"I'll only ask you once: Who sent you?"

"Ah~, my legs, my legs."

"Brother, big brother, we're just errand runners."

"Kun told us to cause them trouble."

"Our Brother Kun is just doing things for money."

"That person gives money to our brother Kun every month so he can cause trouble for this mother and daughter. We're just running errands."

"Waaaaah, brother, please let us go!"

"I need to see a doctor, waaaaah..."

"That person?" Upon hearing this, Su Qianxue's expression changed.

"Who is it? My mother and I are just ordinary people. Who would specifically send you to cause us trouble?"

"What's in it for him?"

"We don't have any money."

"Mom, do you know who it is?"

Shen Qiuxia was still in shock. Was Gu Lingchen the friend her daughter had mentioned?

Judging from his demeanor, she knew that Gu Lingchen was no ordinary person.

"Mom, do you know something?"

"Tell me quickly, who is it?"

"Over the years, we have moved countless times, but these people are like persistent ghosts; no matter where we go, they will come to cause us trouble."

Shen Qiuxia, her eyes red and conflicted, said, "Qianxue, please don't ask anymore."

"We can't beat them."

"Mom, do you really know?"

"Are they from the Su family?"

"Su Xiaoqiao? Or Su Bainan, or perhaps, that bitch?"

"I should have realized it was them a long time ago."

"Why, why won't they let us go even after we've already gone this far?"

"Yes, yes, it's Miss Su."

"Su Xiaoqiao, the eldest daughter of the Su family, sends money to our Brother Kun every month."

"Please, brother, let us go."

"Call an ambulance for us right away..."

"Su Xiaoqiao?"

"So it was her."

Upon hearing this name, Su Qianxue's eyes revealed an unprecedented tenacity and hatred.

This half-sister, though young, is just as wicked as her mother.

Su Qianxue had experienced her prowess firsthand when she was a child.
