When Su Ze returned, he did not even manage to stabilize his heels before he started to get restless. Ling Chen squinted his eyes.
Ling Chen sneered. This was not simple at all, he just could not bear to see him off so easily.
Du Zetang's heart was shocked, ever since Xu Ge followed Ling Chen, he had long since stopped allowing Xu Ge to interact with matters of the underworld. According to him, they were in proper business. The things that were made by the underworld would harm one's merits, and one wouldn't even be able to sleep soundly.
Xu Ge clearly understood Ling Chen's intentions, he frowned, and the fists in his hands clenched and loosened, but he still opened his mouth and said: "I am with some of the gang leaders in C City, it shouldn't be a problem for them to help find someone." In the end, he was someone who had lived and died together in the wind and the rain for so many years.
Hmm, Ling Chen nodded, and waved his hand tiredly: "Go ahead, I'll stay here alone for a while." As he spoke, he had already walked to the french windows.
Seeing him like that, Xu Ge could not bear to see him. He wanted to say something, but was stopped by Du Zetang who gently shook his head and dragged away. Ling Chen really needed to be alone and calm.
The room quietened down, only then did Ling Chen dare to throw away his helmet and armor, his eyes revealing fear and confusion.
Xiao Xiao, where are you? Are you injured or not?
Look, Xiao Xiao, unknowingly, you have become so important to me. When I just heard the news of your accident from artemisia radix, my heart almost stopped beating in pain.
So, Xiao Xiao, promise me that you will be safe and sound, until I find you, and then bring you home.
Ling Chen leaned against the window and looked outside for a long time. The clouds covered the moonlight and occasionally, there were some sound of cicadas and men's deep sighs.
Zhang Xiao Xiao was woken up by the forceful shaking of her head. She opened her eyes with some difficulty, and only felt a heart-wrenching pain.
With great difficulty, she opened her eyes and looked at the ceiling above her. Where was this place?! Zhang Xiao Xiao frowned, and suddenly realised that he was taken away by Yang Hao while he was shopping.
There was a strange feeling beneath his body. Zhang Xiao Xiao looked down and realized that he was tied up by a thick hemp rope and threw into a corner.
But what was that shaking just now? Zhang Xiao Xiao frowned, this was clearly a room, could it be that there was an earthquake?
"He's on the boat now. The boat must have hit a rock just now." There were sounds coming from behind her.
Zhang Xiao Xiao was shocked, the room was too dark and she did not turn on the lights. Adding that she was too panicked just now, she did not realise that there was anyone else in the room.
She turned her head with some difficulty and met a pair of big, black eyes. At the moment, her large eyes were darting around the room, but she didn't dare meet her gaze. Zhang Xiao Xiao looked down. So she was the same as him, also tied up and thrown here.
"Chen Ou." Zhang Xiao Xiao gently called out her name, but no emotions could be heard from her voice.
Chen Ou blushed when she called him, and replied with a low voice, as he did not dare to look straight at Zhang Xiao Xiao.
Zhang Xiao Xiao frowned, wasn't she with Yang Hao, how could she be here?
Chen Ou seemed to have seen through her thoughts, and said with his head down: "Yang Hao lied to me, I thought I could leave, but he was afraid that I would report it to Ling Chen, so he locked me up. When will Ling Chen come and save you, and when will I be able to leave? "
"What?!" Zhang Xiao Xiao was shocked. She had already known that the reason to capture her was not that simple, she never thought that it was for Uncle's sake. Zhang Xiao Xiao bit her lips. In the end, she still dragged Uncle down, and now she could only hope that Uncle wouldn't be forced to do something stupid.
Chen Ou looked at the silent Zhang Xiao Xiao, a hint of hesitation flashed past her eyes, but in the end, she clenched her teeth and said: "Xiao Xiao, I'm sorry."
She did not wish for Zhang Xiao Xiao to forgive her, she only wanted to apologize to her from the bottom of her heart. After all, she was the person Zhang Xiao Xiao trusted the most.
Zhang Xiao Xiao chuckled, of course she knew why Chen Ou said he was sorry, but since everything had already happened, there was nothing she could do about it, no matter how apologetic she was. Now, she only hoped that her uncle wouldn't be implicated because of her. Otherwise, she would probably hate Chen Ou for life.
"Yang Hao... They kidnapped my parents and threatened to kill them if I didn't do what he said. " Chen Ou's words were faintly trembling.
One was her best friend, the other was her biological parents. If she really didn't have any other choice, she wouldn't choose to hurt Zhang Xiao Xiao.
Zhang Xiao Xiao was a little taken aback. No wonder she went and helped Yang Hao, so it turns out that she had a weakness in his hands. Only, she did not expect Yang Hao to be such a despicable person.
He looked deeply at Chen Ou, wanting to reprimand her for everything she had done, but in the end, he did not say anything. The look in Zhang Xiao Xiao's eyes changed from scolding to helpless, before finally becoming one of pain in his heart.
She sighed and shook her head. "Idiot, you should have asked me first after what happened. Let's think of a way."
For someone like Yang Hao who had gone mad and had nowhere to go, even if he really took her to threaten Uncle, after Uncle does it, he might not let them go.
Chen Ou looked up in astonishment, she did not expect that Zhang Xiao Xiao would still be willing to comfort her at this time. The pain that she had suppressed for so long had finally been vented, she could not help but sniff twice, and still cried out.
"Xiao Xiao... I'm sorry. "I really have no other choice …"
Zhang Xiaoxiao's throat moved. She wanted to say something, but she endured it in the end.
