Chapter 436: Chapter 436: Picking Up Someone

"Sorry, I won’t step aside. You can’t take this person away today." Xu Ke politely refused the woman’s excessive demand like a gentleman.

"You’re not stepping aside, are you? Fine, you asked for this. You can’t blame anyone else." The woman said as she turned and got into her car. In no time, she took out a fruit knife, pointing its sharp tip at Xu Ke and said, "I don’t want to kill anyone, so I’m giving you one more chance to disappear from my sight and hand over the woman behind you to me, or else I’ll kill you. Once my son’s surgery is done, I’ll turn myself in." Her eyes were bloodshot, like a beast hunting its prey.

"Sorry, I won’t." Xu Ke once again refused the woman’s proposal.

The woman went completely insane. Time was running out, and if she couldn’t get the girl to the hospital, today’s surgery wouldn’t be possible. The illness would become increasingly dangerous if delayed further, and the chances of success for the next surgery wouldn’t be as good as now. This was a result she couldn’t bear.

The woman wasn’t hesitant anymore nor afraid, everything was for her son, and everything was worth it for him.

The woman’s knife was sharp, leaving a silver arc in the air, but no matter how fast she was, she wasn’t faster than Xu Ke. The moment the girl behind Xu Ke saw the woman rush toward him with the knife, she wanted to scream, but before she could, Xu Ke effortlessly grabbed the woman’s wrist. Somehow, the tightly held knife fell to the ground, making a crisp sound.

The sound brought the girl’s scattered soul back, and like a rabbit, she quickly dashed to Xu Ke’s feet, grabbed the knife, and threw it into a nearby trash bin. Her heart, thumping wildly, finally calmed down.

"Do you want to take her to the police?" Xu Ke turned his head to look at the girl, ignoring the woman who was still hurling insults.
