There were more than a dozen cars behind Qiao Liang, and many armed soldiers jumped out of the cars. The snipers among them immediately found the best spots to snipe from and pointed their guns at Lu Guangxiong. The other soldiers moved quickly to surround the whole factory.
There were well-armed special forces soldiers behind Xiao Yao who also quickly found the best spots to snipe or launch attacks from, they then surrounded the factory as well.
Xiao Jing looked at the two groups of people and became totally speechless. He stared at Qiao Liang with his eyes wide open, and ran to him; with a smirk he ground his teeth and said, “Hey, President Qiao, I’ve told you my brother knew Rourou was kidnapped and would save her. Why did you still bring so many people here?! And these guys are all globally-known agents!”
Qiao Liang took a look at Xiao Jing and snorted. “I don’t need any other man to save my girlfriend.”
Xiao Jing glared at him. “In any case, you don’t have to make such a fuss! Where did you find these agents?!”
Qiao Liang glanced at him, and walked towards Xiao Yao who had been looking at him. Qiao Liang raised his eyebrows. “Lieutenant Colonel Xiao, I’m so honored that you brought so many soldiers to save my girlfriend, but I wonder what will happen to you if your superior finds out that you use public office for private gain.”
Xiao Yao narrowed his eyes, took off his gloves, took a look at Qiao Liang and said, “I will do anything to save my sister out. It’s worth it even if I’ll be expelled from the army!” With that, he spoke to the loudspeaker, “People inside, listen up, you’ve been surrounded. Release the hostage within a minute, or else we’ll shoot!”
Qiao Liang grabbed the loudspeaker from Xiao Yao, glanced at him and said coldly, “Lieutenant Colonel Xiao, I’m really moved by you, but I’m afraid Xixi will never want to see you again if you really shoot.”
Xiao Yao froze, looked at Qiao Liang and narrowed his eyes. Qiao Liang slowly took a step forward and looked at Lu Guangxiong and Tang Xi who had walked to the gate of the factory. He was relieved when he saw Tang Xi was unscathed. He took the loudspeaker and said coldly, “Lu Guangxiong, if you let Xiao Rou go, I can assure you that you will live a well-to-do life in the coming decades.”
When Lu Guangxiong heard Qiao Liang speak to him as if giving him alms, he immediately put a dagger against Tang Xi’s neck and roared, “A well-to-do life? Do you want me to beg you for money like a loser? I tell you, Qiao Liang, now it’s you who are begging me to release this woman. I’m not begging you for money! If I can’t see two billion Yuan now, I’ll take this woman to hell with me!”
Qiao Liang looked at Lu Guangxiong’s motion and his face darkened. Xiao Yao and Xiao Jing couldn’t help taking a step forward. Tang Xi felt the pain across her neck, with widened eyes she shouted at Qiao Liang, “Qiao Liang! How can you do this to me! If you want to dump me and be together with that woman called Tang Xi, just tell me! You really don’t have to kill me through your father’s hands! If I’m killed, I’ll become a ghost, haunt you every day and keep you up at night! Then you will never be able to be together with Tang Xi!”
“Shut up!” Lu Guangxiong reached out to cover her mouth and Tang Xi suddenly bit him on the hand. It hurt so much that Lu Guangxiong released her, and Tang Xi immediately ran forward. Qiao Liang rushed up, but at this moment, Lu Guangxiong grabbed Tang Xi’s hair and dragged her back. Tang Xi burst into tears of pain and swore in her heart that she would definitely cut her hair short when she came back! The long hair was truly troublesome!
Qiao Liang tightly pursed her lips. Lu Guangxiong slapped Tang Xi hard and blood oozed out of Tang Xi’s mouth. Qiao Liang clenched his hands and thundered, “Lu Guangxiong! You are courting death!”
Lu Guangxiong looked grimly at Qiao Liang and sneered. “Do you think I’ll be afraid of you seeing you bring so many people here? I tell you, even if I die, I’ll take this woman to hell with me! Remember you made me do this!” He grabbed Tang Xi’s hair harder and harder. Tang Xi gritted her teeth and cursed Lu Guangxiong over and over again in her heart.
Lu Guangxiong gave a vicious smile when he saw the painful look on Tang Xi’s face. “Aren’t you sharp-tongued? Why are you silent? Little girl, I’m gonna teach you a lesson today!”
Grabbing Tang Xi’s hair, Lu Guangxiong squatted down to pick up the dagger on the ground. Just at this moment, Qiao Liang and Xiao Jing both ran behind Lu Guangxiong. Lu Guangxiong immediately lied down and dragged Tang Xi hard. Tang Xi fell on him and Lu Guangxiong put the dagger against Tang Xi’s neck again. Xiao Yao and Qiao Liang looked at Lu Guangxiong who was smiling smugly at them. Lu Guangxiong narrowed his eyes. “Step back. Otherwise she will die.”
Qiao Liang and Xiao Yao dared not act rashly, and stepped back. Qiao Liang took a look at Little Five. Upon seeing the latter nod at him, Qiao Liang heaved a breath of relief, stepped back and said, “Lu Guangxiong, I promise you anything you want. Just let her go.”
Lu Guangxiong squinted at Qiao Liang. “Why should I believe you?!”
Qiao Liang frowned. “Okay, I’ll have the chip sent here right away. You can release her after seeing the chip.” With that, he signaled at Little Five who immediately nodded and made a call.
Xiao Yao and Qiao Liang retreated to the side. Xiao Yao looked at Tang Xi and said coldly, “If Xixi is injured this time, I’ll bring her away from you even if she will hate me, and you’ll never be able to get her.”
Qiao Liang paused, looked at Tang Xi and said firmly, “You’ll never have the chance.” Then he continued, “And, don’t touch Lu Guangxiong. Leave him to me. If you still want to see Xixi, you’d better listen to me.”
At this time, a car came over. Qiao Liang looked at it and then at Lu Guangxiong, and gave a cold smile. “The chip is here. Now it’s your turn to make a choice.”
The car door was opened and a girl of fifteen or so was pushed out of the car. Lu Guangxiong suddenly roared at Qiao Liang when he recognized who the girl was, “Qiao Liang, you bastard!”
Lu Xiaojing who was held at the waist by a gun, shook all over. She wanted to cry but dared not. When she saw Lu Guangxiong standing in front of her, her eyes immediately turned red and she shouted at Lu Guangxiong, “Dad, help me!”
