Chapter 2093 - 497: A Lucky Break
The car sped down the highway like an arrow leaving the bow, leaving the men in black far behind in the blink of an eye.
Xiao Wu looked through the rearview mirror and saw the leading man in black glaring menacingly at the back of the car, then viciously kicked the flowerbed beside him.
The speeding car blocked the figures of the men.
Inside the car, the atmosphere was intensely oppressive and threatening. Lady Liang sat there, not daring to move, cursing her luck and thinking how unlucky it was that she hadn’t checked the almanac before leaving today, and now she encountered a robbery.
The pungent stench from the man’s body assaulted her nose, making her stomach churn. She barely shifted in her seat, when he immediately brought the knife closer, yelling fiercely into her ear, "Don’t move."
She was instantly so terrified she didn’t dare move at all.
"Well... if you want money, I can give it to you, as long as you let me go... don’t worry, I won’t call the police, everyone has times when they need help, if I can lend a hand, I will...." Lady Liang said cautiously, her adam’s apple moving up and down with her words, pressing against the blade, making her increasingly feel like she was hanging by a thread.
Suddenly, Liang Wenrou screamed and swung her bag at the man’s head, "Bastard, let go of my mommy...."
Xiao Wu sighed, thinking, Second Miss Liang, aren’t you just provoking the criminal?
The leather bag struck the man’s head with a dull thud, his eyes immediately turned vicious. He grabbed Lady Liang by the neck, pressing her head against the car window, causing Lady Liang to roll her eyes in pain.
The man turned his head abruptly, his messy hair revealing eyes filled with violence and madness. Liang Wenrou was startled, retreating while shouting, "Don’t come over, if you come closer, I’ll call the police...." Holding her phone, her delicate face was pale as paper.
The man laughed sinisterly, "Call the police?"
Suddenly, he waved his hand, knocking Liang Wenrou’s phone away, and slapped her face, almost knocking her over the seat, her hair disheveled, leaving her dazed.
Xiao Wu’s heart raced, this person was too vicious. His eyes darted around, taking a right turn at the next intersection.
"Follow the route I say, or I’ll kill her right now." The man’s large hand gripped Liang Wenrou’s neck.
Liang Wenrou’s face turned a mix of blue and purple, her cheek swollen, with a lump forming on her forehead.
"Rourou...." Lady Liang’s cheek was pressed against the glass, unable to see Liang Wenrou, but hearing her cries made her heart ache, though she couldn’t help herself right now.
"How dare you hit my daughter, I’ll fight you with all I’ve got." Lady Liang shouted, "If you want money, I’ll give it to you, I’m the wife of the Liang Group, Liang Taisheng is my husband, I have a lot of money. As long as you let us go, I’ll meet any demand you have." Lady Liang hadn’t lost her rationality yet, noticing the man’s odd emotions, she needed to offer an enticing prospect to make him see their value, otherwise, if he went berserk, both she and Rourou would be finished.
"Liang Family?" The man paused for a moment, then turned to scrutinize Lady Liang, a glint of something unusual flickering in his eyes.
Lady Liang thought she had convinced him, seizing the opportunity she said quickly, "Yes, I’m Lady Liang, as long as you let us go, I’ll give you any amount of money you want."
Survival is paramount.
"Hahaha, searching high and low with no success, everything fell into place effortlessly, even heaven is helping me." With the man’s exaggerated and crazed laughter, Lady Liang’s heart sank deeper, she might have... made a fatal mistake...
The man’s rough fingers lightly caressed Liang Wenrou’s cheek, a sinister gleam in his eyes, "Such a delicate and tender beauty, must be one of the Liang Family’s ladies, I’ve seen Miss Liang, so this one, should be the Second Miss Liang."
Lady Liang’s heart skipped a beat, could this person know them? Had he seen Liang Wenwan, was this trouble caused by that wretch Liang Wenwan?
Liang Wenrou trembled in fear, her cheeks hurting and swollen, almost brought to tears by the man’s lecherous gaze.
"Very well, you’ll pay Miss Liang’s debt on her behalf."
So it was indeed trouble brought by that wretch, Lady Liang was both furious and angry, if Liang Wenwan appeared before her now, she’d surely kill her.
The man’s gaze landed on Xiao Wu, making Xiao Wu shiver suddenly.
"If you want both of them to live, follow my instructions, take a left at the next intersection, then a right at the third...."
Xiao Wu’s heart chilled for a moment, it seemed this person was very familiar with the routes.
