Saying “old third” was the most pointed provocation directed at Liu Old Lady.

Although Liu Old Lady had always taught her own children not to dwell on how others viewed them, and that the most important thing was to know what they could gain and clearly understand their own goals,

when someone so blatantly challenged her like this, she still felt very uncomfortable. Her aged face immediately flushed red as she glared fiercely at Jingjing, “How dare you speak like that? Didn’t your mother teach you any manners?”

“My mother certainly didn’t,” Jingjing replied without getting angry; instead, she let out a mischievous chuckle, then turned to Liu Old Lady and asked, “Since you mentioned my mother, let me ask you something! Do you even know who my mother is?”

After asking that, she felt it still wasn’t quite right—after all, compared with that Lao Zhang just now, her tone lacked a bit of force. So she cleared her throat and tried again, mimicking Lao Zhang’s manner: “Do you know who I am?”

As soon as she said this, Liu Old Lady’s brow instantly furrowed as if by reflex: “You…”

“Ah! What’s wrong? You do know, don’t you?”

Jingjing wore an expression of utter surprise.

But Liu Old Lady’s anger suddenly subsided. She quickly reined in her fury and asked, “Who are you? What exactly do you want?”

“Oh! You don’t recognize me? Then that’s just fine!” Jingjing slapped her chest as if she’d finally shaken off a terrible fright, then lightly clapped her hands and burst into laughter.

Yet the way she smiled now… it was downright spine-chilling.

Although Liu Old Lady had no idea what Jingjing was up to, she instinctively took a step back, adopting a defensive posture.

Seeing this, Jingjing became even more excited.

She spat twice onto the palms of both hands, let out a sinister cackle, narrowed her eyes, and laughed heartily as she said:

“What are you running away for? I’m here to beat you up! Can you really escape? Since you don’t even know who I am, that’s just perfect! I’m going to be completely ruthless!”

“What did you say?”

Liu Old Lady’s mind was still reeling, and she hadn’t quite caught on yet.

By the time she finally realized what was happening, she hurriedly turned to run while shouting, “Help me!”

Unfortunately, before she could even finish her cry or make a successful getaway, Jingjing suddenly leapt into the air and kicked Liu Old Lady straight to the ground.

Then she rushed over and delivered a hearty round of insults while kicking: “You old bitch! Scream! Why aren’t you screaming anymore? You want help, right? You want to run, right? But can you really get away?”

Jingjing straddled Liu Old Lady, magically produced a lump of filthy mud, and smacked it right into her mouth, effectively silencing her completely.

Her technique was truly unique.

It looked as though she wasn’t applying much force at all, but every strike hit deep into the flesh, sending pain straight to the bone—yet there were no obvious wounds to show for it.

And with a mouthful of mud, she couldn’t even scream; all she could do was whimper and struggle, cursing furiously.

Still, how could such feeble strength possibly stand up to Jingjing?

In no time at all, Liu Old Lady was thoroughly subdued, unable to utter another word, and collapsed on the ground, playing dead.

Satisfied beyond measure, Jingjing slowly stood up, wiped the grime off her hands on Liu Old Lady’s body, and smiled radiantly: “Very good! I’ll let you off this time. Old Third, we’ll continue next time—let’s go!”

Like a child who’d just done something perfectly satisfying, she skipped and hopped forward.

But then she remembered something and suddenly turned around.

Meanwhile, Liu Old Lady was seething with curses. Just moments ago, she’d mustered the strength to crawl off the ground, planning to grab her phone and snap a photo of this person so she could call the police.

No sooner had she pulled out her phone than Jingjing spotted it.

Liu Old Lady’s scalp prickled with dread—she couldn’t deny it any longer. She waved her hand and stammered, “I didn’t! I just… I didn’t mean to take a picture…”

Before she could finish the sentence, Jingjing delivered another flying kick, precisely smashing Liu Old Lady’s phone to pieces on the ground—and right in front of her, she performed a dramatic “foot from the sky” move, shattering the phone into tiny fragments with a loud crack.
