Chapter 178

The fans were not very willing, and some irrational ones even started to protest.

"What the heck! Stopping the concert just like that, what do you take us fans for!"

"Xiao Yuanning! Come out and give us an explanation!"

"We paid a hefty price for these tickets, and now they're gone just like that? Isn't this pure and simple profiteering? How shameless!"

"Refund! Refund!"

Of course, there were also many rational fans who, seeing the police, understood that something unusual might have happened.

"Come on, what are you all shouting about! Do you think the Family Heir of X International needs your pocket change for tickets? Don't you see the police are here!"

"Exactly! They said something happened, why are you still making a fuss? This is Babe's first concert, he must be more excited than any of you. If there's an accident causing a pause, he must be more upset than anyone!"

...

Soon, under the arrangement of security and police officers, fans orderly left the venue. Shi Shuning, Ye Wanwan, and others also moved outside. Based on the clues, the police started to retrieve surveillance footage from surrounding roads to find the whereabouts of the two janitors.

An hour later, the police received news from the bomb squad.

Five small bombs were installed under the stage, and six more were under the seats in the audience.

The power was small, but enough to blast a two-meter radius around. If an explosion occurred, Xiao Yuanning and the performers on stage would definitely be seriously injured.

The people sitting on the seats with bombs and those next to them would 100% die on the spot!

"This incident was clearly premeditated. Although we can't rule out terrorists causing a terror attack, after the two suspects kidnapped someone, they directly abandoned the remote control, giving up the explosion. I'm more inclined to believe it's a premeditated kidnapping.

Do you know if Xiao Jinmeng has any enemies, or even if Xiao Yuanning or the Xiao family have any enemies?" the officer asked.

"Enemies?" Ye Wanwan thought for a moment and shook her head, "No, Meng Meng is very well-behaved and never makes enemies."

Shi Shuning frowned deeply, his mind also unable to come up with any reason.

Xiao Jinmeng felt wronged in her heart. Why did she always encounter such things? She really hadn't done anything wrong...

"Little bitch, if you want to blame someone, blame your parents. Why did they have to come back? Wasn't it good staying abroad! Hahaha..."

"They already had such a big enterprise, why did they have to go against our family, causing Wenyao to be arrested, causing me to be homeless. All of this is their fault!"

Actually, after Xiao Wenyao was arrested, Jian Hongmei had already become somewhat mentally unstable. Especially after killing Liu Lian's wife, Xiao Fang, she became even more reckless and increasingly manic.

"Hahaha, they sent Wenyao to prison, but their supposedly dead daughter is found again, hehehe, why! Why do all the good things happen to them! Why are we the ones who keep having bad luck!"

"My son went to prison, my daughter cut ties with us, and now even my husband is in prison, we've lost our home. Why does heaven treat me like this!"

"Hahahahaha..." Jian Hongmei let out a long howl, her face full of resentment.

"Both Wenyao and Xiao Yongze are sons of the Xiao family. Both I and Song Jiaxi are from ordinary backgrounds. Why can they always rise steadily and be respected by everyone? Why do we have to be like street rats that everyone wants to beat!"

Liu Lian stood by with a dumbfounded expression, not understanding why some people always see themselves as victims.

If Xiao Wenyao didn't have such great ambition, if he had just gotten along well with Xiao Yongze like brothers, not harming others, not doing shady things, naturally he wouldn't have ended up like this!

Looking at the person sitting on the ground, slapping her thighs, wailing loudly, and lamenting heaven's unfairness, Liu Lian couldn't help but remind, "Madam, stop crying, let's see how to deal with her first!"

Before it gets too late and the police find us...

Jian Hongmei stopped crying, glared at Xiao Jinmeng, her eyes turned, and an idea came to her mind.

"Little Liu, do you fancy pretty girls? Have you ever tasted the sweetness of a young lass? We've got one right here, ripe for the picking. Want to give it a try?" Jian Hongmei teased.

Liu Lian froze, taken aback. "Madam, what are you implying...?"

Jian Hongmei shot him a scathing look. "Don't play dumb, Little Liu. I know you understand."

"We're going to kill her anyway," she continued, her voice dripping with malice. "Why not have some fun before we do? We could even record a video or snap some photos to send to Song Jiaxi. Let them see what's become of their precious little daughter..."

Xiao Jinmeng's eyes widened in disbelief as she stared at Jian Hongmei. The woman's cruelty knew no bounds.
