BXBX NOVEL Chapter 77 - ~An Attack~
Qiao Xin seemed to be sitting together with Mei, the two of them enjoying hot pot according to Mei's wish.
"Are you feeling very satisfied now, Mei? You've spent my last money, now I don't have a penny. So, you're the one who has to pay for the bus."
Qiao Xin seemed to be enjoying her spicy hot pot very happily. How could it not be, as long as she was married to Xiao Long, Qiao Xin always ate food that had to be clean and nutritious almost every day. Even though the food was equivalent to five-star hotel food because it was too luxurious, Qiao Xin still preferred this kind of food. Simple food in a roadside stall is an enjoyable thing.
"This is the first time after working for so long that I can finally go out with you, Qiao Xin, to eat hot pot together while drinking wine. It seems that after this, even drunkenness I will be very grateful about that." Mei took another sip of her wine, even now that she had finished three bottles. But Qiao Xin wasn't too worried. How could she not? She already understood that no matter how much Mei drank wine, she was an accomplished drinker who could never get drunk at all.
"Mei, you know it's late at night. We should go home soon." Qiao Xin seemed to have just remembered where she was now. She had a curfew, and Xiao Long had warned her that if she didn't come home by 10 pm, Xiao Long would look for Qiao Xin wherever she was. Qiao Xin didn't want Xiao Long to do it, especially now that Qiao Xin was with Mei.
Mei seemed surprised too. How could she not? Seeing a nervous-looking Qiao Xin packing her things and placing her money on the table was an extraordinary thing.
"Qiao Xin wait!" Mei seemed to protest, and she even had to limp while pulling her bag, which was still on the table, because Qiao Xin kept pulling her to hurry home. "Why are you here? Are you a wife? Or did your cousin give you a curfew?" Mei asked, annoyed. Qiao Xin, who had no other choice at Mei's question, finally nodded as well. How could it not? There was no way if she was honest that she was a wife right now.
"Sure, my cousin is very grumpy, he will be very angry if I come home late. My deadline is only until 10 pm, and we're going to be late now and he'll be really mad at me."
"Oh my God, are you a child? What if you have a boyfriend someday? Are you still going to be arranged like this?" upset Mei.
Qiao Xin couldn't help but smile, then the two of them got on the bus and sat down together, telling stories until the bus stopped and both of them got off again.
The two of them stepped across a reasonably deserted street, for then both of them frowned while stopping their steps in unison. How not, they feel they are being followed, they think that everything is not safe now.
"Is someone following us, Qiao Xin?" asked Mei at last. Qiao Xin nodded her head, and then she tightly gripped Mei's arm. Yes, Qiao Xin was scared.
"A while ago, I also felt that someone was following. Luckily my cousin came quickly. Now, how? Even after we cross we will part, we still have a long way to go. If we were to be followed, it would be very scary," said Qiao Xin, who seemed to have panicked.
"We'll lure them first," said Mei giving an idea. Qiao Xin seemed to be looking at Mei with that curious look on her face.
"You mean?" Qiao Xin asked.
"Let's go round and round and ask for help, don't separate from each other. Because if we go our separate ways, it will be very vulnerable for us to get help and fight back. How about we call the police? My phone battery is running low, you can do that right, Qiao Xin?"
"Did you forget that my cell phone was broken?" annoyed Qiao Xin. Mei seemed to roll her eyes.
"Shouldn't you have received a cell phone from Mr. Xuan just now? You were too shy to Mr. Xuan, now what happened. we have nothing left now."
Qiao Xin was silent again until the two of them immediately stopped when the footsteps started to move faster, and people were standing around the two of them.
How scared Qiao Xin was at this moment, the streets already looked utterly deserted, the other people seemed to be making gaps to divert drivers to other roads. Qiao Xin and Mei again held hands with their bodies already feeling so cold and trembling.
"Who are you guys? What do you want?!" said Qiao Xin trying to ask and be calm. But it didn't work at all because Qiao Xin's trembling voice that sounded stuck in her throat made Qiao Xin unable to do much.
The men wearing all black walked over, causing Qiao Xin and Mei to step back spontaneously. The group of men grinned and then looked at Qiao Xin from top to bottom.
"Your name is Miss Liu right?" asked the bald man. Qiao Xin immediately screamed in surprise, and she didn't expect the criminal to know her so well.
"Who are you guys? How do you know my name?" Qiao Xin asked probingly. All the men who surrounded Qiao Xin and Mei smirked again.
"You don't need to know who we are, Miss Liu. Since we are only in charge of eliminating you since you are with your friend, then we will get rid of the two of you, so that the two of you don't act up and don't interfere with our boss is doing his job."
Qiao Xin and Mei immediately screamed hysterically as the people had already walked up to them.
But before the criminals abducted them, suddenly a motorbike drove very fast, the motorbike shattered the ranks that wanted to hurt Qiao Xin. Stopping right in front of Qiao Xin, the figure on the motorbike looked at everyone there.
Qiao Xin seemed to be very familiar with the tall posture of the man who was still on his motorbike, the man who was still wearing a helmet. But when she saw the bracelet, Qiao Xin smiled. Yes, she knew that the person in front of her who was protecting her was Xiao Long.
Xiao Long tilted his face. He opened the visor of his helmet but was reluctant to take it off. Either way, if he took off his helmet, Qiao Xin would protest because Qiao Xin's best friend would know that he was Han Xiao Long.
"Who are you! Never interfere with our fun!" snapped one of the criminals there.
Xiao Long then got off his motorbike, and then he looked at the criminals one by one. Professional criminals who are sure to hire them cost a fortune. Xiao Long believes this brutal act was carried out by people from the Weijing Group, especially after Xiao Long found out about the conversation between Xuan Cheng and the president director of the Weijing Group.
"Never touch my Qiqi!" Xiao Long snapped.
Qiao Xin immediately squealed in surprise hearing Xiao Long says that in an angry voice. Luckily Xiao Long didn't mention Qiao Xin as his wife. Otherwise, it would be difficult for Qiao Xin to explain to Mei what Xiao Long said.
Without further ado, Xiao Long took the baseball bat he had been carrying. He took Qiao Xin and Mei back to a safe place, and he immediately attacked the eleven criminals alone.
"Be careful, you're alone, I don't want you to get hurt!" shouted Qiao Xin worriedly.
Mei seemed to nudge Qiao Xin's arm, and then she pointed at Xiao Long, who appeared to be fighting with the criminals.
"He calls you my Qiqi, is he your lover, Qiao Xin?" investigate Mei. Qiao Xin didn't answer, and she just smiled slightly in response to Mei's question.
Meanwhile, Xiao Long kept trying to hit everyone there, his hands spinning around the baseball bat in his hand. One kick almost hit Xiao Long, but Xiao Long quickly dodged, that another criminal tried to hit Xiao Long. Xiao Long caught the criminal's hand. He pulled until the criminal fell on the body of the other criminal. Six criminals fell until there were six more. Xiao Long quickly ran and then kicked them perfectly. Xiao Long glanced at Qiao Xin, and his eyes widened to see if one of the criminals was secretly trying to hurt Qiao Xin with a knife. While running fast, Xiao Long immediately ran over to Qiao Xin, and then he held the knife that was about to be thrown at Qiao Xin with his hand. Until the hand was bleeding completely, Xiao Long then pulled the blade, and then he kicked the criminal's stomach until he fell helpless.
Xiao Long immediately sighed in pain, causing Qiao Xin to panic and check what happened to Xiao Long now.
"You're hurt!" Qiao Xin said frantically.
"I am alright,"
"You're bleeding, you idiot!" annoyed Qiao Xin. Her eyes were already watery, and then she looked like she was crying. Xiao Long smiled, seeing Qiao Xin so worried for him.
"I feel like I was seriously injured."
"You're not joking with me!" Qiao Xin was angry.
Xiao Long immediately hugged Qiao Xin's body for a moment, and then he glanced at Mei, who was already looking at him with a questioning gaze. Even Mei saw an embroidered letter in the shape of the letter 'H' on the neck collar and collar of the mysterious man's shirt. Usually a symbol of the clothes of a wealthy family that is not owned by others.
"We have to leave immediately before they catch up to us. Sorry, Qiqi where is your friend's house? We have to find a taxi for her."
