1155 Wasted
Xia Wen did not come empty-handed. He took out the expandable baton strapped at his waist and engaged in a fierce fight with the group. It had been a long time since he needed to work out like this. He was glad for the chance to take part in a fight again.
There were more than 10 people fighting the lone Xia Wen, but they did not manage to take any advantage of him at all. Lu Miao watched from the side with some relish. Not long after, all the people whom Lu Miao brought with him were lying on the ground.
Where's my wife? Xia Wen asked again.
Lu Miao looked at the guys lying on the ground. There were so many of them and they could not even defeat one man? He thought these guys were from their team of elite fighters? Why were they so weak?
However, Xia Wen's injuries were not mild either. His left leg looked broken.
Lu Miao was not that stupid to send out all his guys in one go. He still had a group of guys waiting behind him. His team was not completely wiped out yet.
Don't be so boring. It's your wife who can't bear to leave us! She even clamored to come into our arms. Oh right, I think you still don't know. Your wife has long made a cuckold out of you behind your back! Otherwise, how do you think we caught her so easily? Lu Miao said laughingly.
Xia Wen did not believe what Lu Miao said. He did not believe a single word of it. After he rescued Tan Jing, he would pass his own judgment. It was not up to other people to say anything about this.
Put the money on the ground and go left. You'll see your wife at the end of the road, Lu Miao said.
Xia Wen raised his baton and pointed it at Lu Miao, saying, You'd better be telling the truth! Otherwise, I'll use your head as an offering to her.
Hmph, you'd better go quickly. I don't know if she'll still be alive if you're too late. Lu Miao revealed a strange smile.
Xia Wen had a very bad feeling and ran in Tan Jing's direction. Lu Miao and the others took the money and quickly left the forest. Their goal was not to deal with Xia Wen. Cheng Gu had told them that now was not the best time to hurt Xia Wen.
The Xia family definitely had a backup plan. Cheng Gu told Lu Miao not to continue fighting and to return immediately after getting the money. As for Tan Jing
Tan Jing had been tied to a chair by Lu Miao. Her clothes were in tatters and there were countless bruises on her face and body. There were also whip marks on her back.
However, these were all not important. Tan Jing also had many needle marks on her left arm. Xia Wen knew very well what these needle marks meant.
Xiao Jing Xiao Jing, look at me talk to me Xia Wen squatted down and looked at Tan Jing with heartache.
When Tan Jing saw Xia Wen, she did not react at all. There was only vigilance and fear in her eyes. She was completely different from her usual self.
Let's go home I'll bring you home. Xia Wen struggled to untie Tan Jing and then carried her on his back down the mountain. It was at this time that Xia Mao and the guard team arrived in a rush.
Tan Jing suddenly bit Xia Wen's neck with such force that it was like she wanted to tear his flesh off. Xia Wen gritted his teeth and did not say anything. He felt that he deserved it He had let Tan Jing down.
I'm sorry Xia Wen said apologetically.
However, Tan Jing could not hear whatever he said at all. She was like a lunatic, one who had gone completely mad. Xia Wen took off his jacket and put it over Tan Jing. Members of the guard team carried her away on a stretcher and Xia Mao stood in front of Xia Wen with a stern expression.
Father Xia Wen said.
Slap! Xia Mao gave Xia Wen a hard slap on the face. In Xia Wen's memories, this was the first time that Xia Mao had ever hit him.
Do you know why I hit you? Xia Mao asked as he suppressed the anger in his heart.
I don't know Xia Wen answered honestly.
Have you forgotten everything I taught you in the past? Have you investigated these people's backgrounds? Do you know where they are from? You actually barge into their territory alone. How confident are you that you can escape unscathed? Do you intend to walk into your grave yourself? Xia Mao scolded fiercely.
Xia Wen had been so worried that he could not think straight. He was so anxious about Tan Jing's safety that he had forgotten about his own. He wanted to save Tan Jing even if he died doing it.
You're really my good son! Everything I taught you in the past was in vain! Come back with me quickly! Don't embarrass yourself here! Xia Mao roared furiously.
