100 Days Of Escaping My Wedding-Chapter 503: The Person After Your Life
Chapter 503: Chapter 503: The Person After Your Life
"How did you find out about Gu Hangshen’s accident?"
Cao Ruide’s eyes lit up; her question had seemingly confirmed Gu Hangshen’s death, so he felt even less need to hold back.
"I have my ways!" Cao Ruide said, feigning deep connections.
"What ways? Can’t you tell me?" Xiaoqiao deliberately softened her tone, mixing in a hint of admiration.
Cao Ruide smiled, "It’s not that I can’t tell! I’ll be blunt with you, do you think I got to where I am today by doing nothing? I have connections in the underworld! The news, naturally, came from those channels. When the people who carried out the hit say that Gu Hangshen is dead, could there be any doubt? You’d be better off following me obediently! What’s so good about a pretty boy like Shen Letian? I guarantee that if you’re with me, you’ll never be wronged!"
Xiaoqiao subtly curled the corner of her lips, "The underworld, huh..."
She had long known that it would be impossible to keep this matter hidden from Huo Yandong and the company; something was bound to go wrong on one end or the other.
It seemed that the source of the information indeed had come from Huo Yandong. Even with Gu Hangshen dead, they still weren’t reassured and wanted to shake his foundations, so that they could focus all their efforts on dealing with Lian Yi and Long Yan.
Cao Ruide, who had long been unable to contain his lust, placed his hand on her thigh...
At that moment, a few glaring lights suddenly shot from the front.
"Who’s there?" Cao Ruide roared.
"Boss, a car suddenly rushed in front and blocked the road!"
No sooner had the driver in the front finished speaking than there was a loud ’bang’, and the car window was completely smashed by someone outside, with a gun pointed at his head.
"Get out!" The speaker was Xie Yan with a darkened face.
Cao Ruide became furious, "What’s going on? Who dares to intercept my car without wanting to live!"
"You don’t need to know who I am, just know that I’m the one who’s after your life!" Xie Yan said and roughly pulled Cao Ruide out.
Seeing that Xiaoqiao was unharmed, Xie Yan and Ling Hao both sighed with relief.
"You alright?" Ling Hao opened the car door, helping Xiaoqiao out.
"I’m fine," Xiaoqiao shook her head.
Other than Xiaoqiao and Cao Ruide, there was only the driver in the car she was in. The men in black who had kidnapped her and other bodyguards and thugs were in another car.
When they saw the car ahead being hijacked, seven or eight underlings rushed out of their vehicle.
Seeing that Xie Yan and Ling Hao were only two people, Cao Ruide immediately induced fear with an arrogant threat, "Who are you blind folks from the underworld? If you’re wise, you’ll release me and kneel to apologize; maybe I’ll spare your lives!"
"Kneel and apologize?" Xie Yan suddenly kicked Cao Ruide’s knee, forcing him to kneel, then casually said, "That’s actually not a bad idea!"
Cao Ruide, infuriated, shouted at his underlings who had suddenly stopped and were doing nothing, "What are you useless trash waiting for? Get over here and help me!"
The one leading his men, dressed up like a peacock, recognized Xie Yan’s face and ran over in shock, "Xie... Xie... Xie..."
Xie Yan kicked out, "Thank for what!"
The peacock man howled in pain as he rolled on the ground, then scrambled and crawled to Xie Yan, "Brother Xie! Brother Xie, what are you... How come you’re here?"
Xie Yan tapped the man’s face with the gun, "You’re looking for death, kid! Daring to touch my people!"
"Brother Xie’s people?" The peacock man turned his gaze to Xiaoqiao and finally realized what was happening; he immediately fell to the ground, apologizing non-stop, "Brother Xie, I... I really had no idea! If I knew it was Sister-in-Law, not even ten times the courage would I have dared to touch her!"
