“Do you feel relieved?”
Jiang Tingxu’s said softly, “It’s not a matter of whether I feel relieved or not. I just don’t want any misunderstandings to arise from this.”
How many people would turn against their own brothers and sisters for the sake of their houses and money?
It was best to take the initiative to clear things up when such sensitive matters were involved. This was the best way to prevent misunderstandings even though they didn’t need the demolition fund or the houses.
How could Mo Boyuan not know what his wife was thinking?
“Do whatever you want. It’s up to you!”
You still have your husband to support you even if you want to make a hole in the sky.
Feeling a little uneasy, she looked at his watch and said, “Uncle Xie has been gone for quite some time, right?”
Mo Boyuan looked down at his watch and answered, “Yes, it’s been almost twenty minutes.”
Logically speaking, Uncle Xie should have returned in ten minutes.
He was just going home to pick up a few letters. It wasn’t like he was carrying anything that was difficult to move.
The couple stood by the window and looked at the gate of the residential area that Xie Zhiming had entered previously.
After about half a minute, Xie Zhiming appeared in the sight of the couple looking rather disheveled.
“W-what…” What happened to Uncle Xie?
Before she could finish her sentence, they received an answer and did not need to ask the question anymore.
Xie Zhiming had just come down from his apartment when he met a group of hooligans blocking his way. It took him some time to settle it.
However, just as he left the gates, another group of people blocked his way.
And looking at this group of people, there was a clear difference between the group of people downstairs from the previous group.
This group of people in front of him was most likely not ordinary hooligans.
“Mr. Xie, you are a smart person. I don’t think we need to say anything more about what to do, right?” The leader of the hooligans said with a sinister smile.
What kind of person was Xie Zhiming?
At the very least, he had managed to get out of that place then. How could he possibly just surrender without a fight now and do whatever was asked of him?
Of course, the situation also needed to be taken care of.
“Who are you people?” He asked sharply.
The leader of the hooligans gritted his teeth and said coldly “We’re probably someone you can’t afford to offend, so don’t waste your time. Hand over the things you just went home to get! If you don’t, then don’t blame
us for what we are about to do!”
Xie Zhiming’s eyes narrowed dangerously and moved his body into a defensive position.
“Oh?”
Meanwhile, Jiang Tingxu and Mo Boyuan went downstairs after they saw the situation. Because they were approaching from the hooligans’ backs, the hooligans did not notice the two coming.
“So, you guys are those annoying rats that have been following us?”
Hiss ~
The sudden voice behind caused all the hooligans to shiver. They turned around and when they saw the two figures that suddenly appeared, they felt fear spreading from the bottom of their hearts for some reason.
The leader of the hooligans immediately gave an order, “Retreat!”
It was obvious that they had been exposed.
The group ran off faster than the wind. Since they were in a residential area where people came and went, Mo Boyuan and Jiang Tingxu allowed the group of annoying rats to slip away easily since they did not want to
appear on the news.
Moreover, they also didn’t want Xie Zhiming to be in any danger.
“I’m sorry, Uncle Xie. You were exposed to such danger because of us.”
Xie Zhiming waved his hand and said, “Don’t mention it. Those people have been following you two all this time?”
“Yes. In any case, someone’s been following us around. I’m not sure whether it’s them or not, but they’re probably in cahoots.”
Xie Zhiming’s brows furrowed even more tightly. It was evident that those people were extremely resourceful for they were able to quickly find what they wanted.
They were probably being watched all this while..
