The dark clouds thickened, and the last few spots of Xing Guang were also hidden. The dark night made it hard to breathe. Through the dust, only the little girl's crying voice could be heard. "Daddy, it's so dark here. I'm so scared!"
"Daddy is here. Tingting, don't be afraid." Nie Dawei gritted his teeth. "Tao Tao, you b * tch, let go of my daughter!"
"Oh, the child is listening. Is that how you talk?" Tao Tao pursed her red lips and smiled. "Tingting, your daddy is not obedient at all. Auntie still likes you."
"But I don't like you … Sob … I want daddy …"
Nie Dawei's heart was about to be broken by his daughter's crying. He couldn't care about anything else and went up to snatch his daughter away from Tao Tao.
However, as soon as he took a step forward, several thugs behind him quickly blocked in front of Tao Tao. Through the human wall, Tao Tao turned her elbow and pointed the tip of the knife at the girl. "Nie Dawei, I advise you not to be impulsive. I'm very timid. If you scare me and my hand trembles, it won't be good if I accidentally hurt her. "
"Her" was referring to Tingting. Hearing this, Nie Dawei froze on the spot, his eyes red. Qi Xingchen and the others didn't dare to move.
Seeing that they were afraid of hurting her, Tao Tao chuckled and brushed the dust off her white dress. With red lips and black hair, she looked like a ghost.
She raised her hand and pointed at Nie Dawei. "You." Then she pointed at Qi Xingchen. "Get his things. Get them and I'll let your daughter go."
Nie Dawei froze and didn't say anything.
"You've formed a battle line so quickly? Qi Xingchen, I have to say, you're really good at bewitching people … "
Tao Tao pressed the tip of the knife down. "Nie Dawei, think carefully. Do you want to help Qi Xingchen or your daughter?"
Children were born with a natural sense of danger. Although she didn't know what was going on, the tip of the knife pressed against her carotid artery. Tingting cried even louder and kept shouting, "Daddy, I'm scared. Daddy, I'm scared!"
Hearing her heart-wrenching voice, not to mention her biological father, no one else felt good. Nie Dawei gritted his teeth and turned around to look at Qi Xingchen. "Brother, I'll let you down this time."
Qi Xingchen shook his head and did not say anything. He took out a recording pen and a small camera.
Just as he was about to pass it to Nie Dawei, Bai Ye suddenly said, "Wait."
"What are we waiting for?!" Nie Dawei panicked. "If we wait any longer, my daughter will die!"
"I didn't mean that," Bai Ye said in a low voice. "Tao Tao's words can't be trusted."
That's right. Only then did everyone realize that with Tao Tao's cruel and merciless personality, what would they do if she didn't get the child back after giving him the items?
Qi Xingchen and Bai Ye exchanged glances and turned to Tao Tao. "A one-sided deal is not sincere. I can't be sure that you will let Tingting go."
Tao Tao frowned. "Then propose a deal."
"One of you, one of me. Let's exchange over there —" Qi Xingchen pointed to the middle of the two teams. "There."
Tao Tao glanced at Qi Xingchen as if she was pondering his idea. After a moment, she nodded. "Okay, don't play tricks."
Qi Xingchen was too lazy to say more. "Then let's go to the middle together."
Tao Tao snorted and handed Tingting to the man in black beside her. Seeing that the tip of the knife was finally away from the girl's neck, Qi Xingchen breathed a sigh of relief. He held the recording pen and the DV and was about to walk forward —
"Xing Xing," Bai Ye stopped him. "I'll go."
Qi Xingchen was a little hesitant. The men in black came prepared and might have weapons on them. He was afraid that Bai Ye would be hurt.
However, before he could refuse, Bai Ye had already taken the things and walked to the middle of the venue. Qi Xingchen's heart suddenly jumped. His eyes followed Bai Ye's back without blinking.
About two minutes later, the two sides walked to the designated position. Tao Tao reminded the man in black, "Don't forget to check the goods."
Without waiting for the man in black to pass on the message, Bai Ye directly turned on the recording pen and the sound of the conversation came out.
He turned on the DV and the memory card was inserted intact.
The man in black nodded to Tao Tao. Tao Tao's red lips opened slightly. "Okay, let's start the deal."
After receiving the order, the man in black pushed Tingting forward. At the same time, Bai Ye held the recording pen and the DV in his left hand and handed them to the man in black.
It was late at night and the wind was getting stronger and stronger. Clothes were flapping in the wind. Countless eyes were focused on the hands of the two people in the venue —
Finally, the two people's hands touched in midair. Bai Ye used his free right hand to hold Tingting. The man in black also used his free hand to hold the recording pen and the DV at the same time.
"On the count of three, let go together," Bai Ye said. "Three, two …"
On the count of one, Bai Ye did as he said and let go first. The man in black felt that he had done a good job and let go.
Bai Ye took the opportunity to pull Tingting behind him. Before the man in black could be happy with the recording pen, he suddenly realized that he couldn't pull the DV out.
… How could he not pull it out?
Just as he was hesitating, Bai Ye flew up and kicked him in the wrist. The man in black's hand trembled from the kick and the recording pen fell out of his hand. The DV returned to Bai Ye's hand.
It turned out that when he got the DV from Qi Xingchen, he secretly wrapped the lanyard around his pinky finger twice. It was too dark to see clearly. Plus, he deliberately wrapped his pinky finger inward. Everyone thought that he was the one holding the DV.
The mission was more important. After the recording pen fell out of his hand, the man in black immediately bent down to pick up the evidence. In those few seconds, Bai Ye pushed Tingting and ran back.
Nie Dawei was worried about his daughter's safety and hurried over to help her.
"Brother Ye, watch out behind you!"
At this time, the man in black finished picking up the evidence and reached out to grab Bai Ye's back. Bai Ye heard Qi Xingchen's warning and dodged to the left.
After all, he was professionally trained. Seeing that the first move didn't work, the man in black immediately changed to another one. He dashed to Bai Ye's side and grabbed Bai Ye's shoulder with his right hand while reaching for Tingting with his left hand!
The man in black's move was vicious. It was a multiple-choice question. If Bai Ye chose to dodge, he would be able to capture Tingting again.
Bai Ye also realized that the situation was urgent. He didn't have time to think. He didn't move and stuffed the DV into Tingting's arms. Then, he picked up the little girl with both hands and gently threw her at Nie Dawei.
With the evidence, Tingting fell into Nie Dawei's arms!
Unfortunately, the price of protecting the child and the evidence was that Bai Ye's shoulder was hit by the strong man's claw. A wave of numbness quickly spread from his shoulder bone to his arm.
Bai Ye's shoulder couldn't help but collapse. He knew that he wouldn't be able to use this arm for a while!
Seeing that Bai Ye was hit, the man in black followed up with another attack. He slid in front of Bai Ye and clenched his fists to greet his face. At this time, the rest of the thugs also rushed over under Tao Tao's signal.
Seeing that the situation wasn't good, Qi Xingchen pushed Nie Dawei out of the circle. "Protect Tingting and the DV. Call the police immediately!"
Before he finished speaking, he brought Qi Jiaze and A Lun to support Bai Ye.
What was worse was that, just as Qi Xingchen expected, the other party was indeed armed. They were bare-handed, while the other thugs were holding steel pipes and daggers.
When the two sides came into contact, it was easy to tell who would win and who would lose just by looking at them!
However, they had no choice. They had to fight until the police arrived.
Qi Xingchen picked up a branch while A Lun found a brick. Qi Jiaze took out his belt and threw it at his opponent's face. "F * ck, I haven't fought for a long time. Today, I'll f * cking fight to my heart's content!"
Needless to say, Qi Jiaze's belt was really a killer weapon. With him leading the way, Qi Xingchen and A Lun protecting him on both sides, the three of them fought while moving towards the middle. Not long after, they really met up with Bai Ye!
As he couldn't move his left hand, Bai Ye was hit a few more times. His opponent was also beaten black and blue.
Qi Xingchen's heart ached. He hugged Bai Ye's waist, supported himself with one leg, and used the other leg to hook backward at an angle that normal people couldn't reach.
The thug who was chasing after them had never seen such a high back split. He was stunned and felt that his jaw was about to crack.
Qi Xingchen's heel accurately kicked the thug's jaw from bottom to top!
It didn't feel good to be kicked in the jaw. The thug's hand was in so much pain that he saw stars. Qi Xingchen took the opportunity to punch the thug until he was dizzy. He snatched the steel pipe from the thug's hand and stuffed it to Bai Ye.
Then, the four of them stood back to back and faced four directions in a circle.
This way, no matter who was in danger, the person next to them could help.
Of course, Tao Tao was not a fool. While Qi Xingchen and the others were fighting, a man quietly moved in Nie Dawei's direction.
After being pushed away by Qi Xingchen, Nie Dawei ran and searched. He found an abandoned trash can by the side of the road.
He put Tingting, who was holding a camcorder, into the trash can. He was afraid that someone would find out. After telling Tingting not to make a sound, he hid under the wall next to them.
He crouched in the corner and called the police while trembling. Then, he raised his head —
His whole body was instantly enveloped by a tall figure.
The man waved the knife in his hand. "Where's your daughter?"
Nie Dawei was so scared that he couldn't speak clearly. "I … I don't know."
"You don't know?" The man smiled coldly. The tip of the knife was cold. "If you don't know, I'll look for her myself."
As he spoke, he strode toward the trash can.
Nie Dawei didn't know why the man didn't pay attention to the evidence and insisted on looking for his daughter. Seeing the man getting closer and closer to the trash can, he suddenly burst out with a force that he had never felt before in his life. He suddenly jumped —
He hugged the man's calf!
The man was forced to stop and impatiently warned, "Let go."
Nie Dawei: "No!"
The man frowned and leaned over to punch him. "Let go."
This punch was ruthless. Nie Dawei was smashed silly, but his mouth still said, "I won't let go!"
"You don't want to let go, right?" The man completely lost his patience. He put the knife in his pocket and grabbed Nie Dawei's hair with one hand, forcing him to look up. The other hand continued to hit his face.
"I asked you to let go! Let go or not? Let go or not? Let go or not?! "
Nie Dawei's brow bone and nose bone were broken after a few hits. His vision turned black and he kept gasping in pain. His mouth was full of the smell of blood. He clenched his teeth. "… No!"
"… F * ck." The man cursed. He looked around and picked up a stone from the ground.
He threw it at Nie Dawei's head!
This time, the man didn't hold back at all. Nie Dawei could clearly hear the sound of his skull breaking.
Blood spurted out, and there was only red in front of his eyes. Nie Dawei couldn't take it anymore and his body swayed.
The man took the opportunity to kick him away.
Without restraint, he continued to walk to the trash can.
Nie Dawei lay on the ground and looked at the man's gradually blurring figure. He seemed to have lost the ability to think, but also seemed to have a concern that pulled him, forcing him to think.
— — Where is the man going?
"Huff, huff …" He was a little breathless.
The man was going to the trash can.
— — If the man opened the trash can, what would happen?
"Huff, huff …"
If he opened the trash can, he would find Tingting.
— — Then who is Tingting?
Tingting, Tingting … Nie Dawei's mind suddenly became clear.
It was his bones, his blood, and his most beloved daughter.
He was indeed a coward, but he would never allow anyone to hurt Tingting, not even a hair!
"Tingting, Daddy is coming …"
Nie Dawei muttered. His fingertips dug into the ground, and he crawled step by step with his hands and feet.
Perhaps the dirty bucket made the man hesitate for a moment. Nie Dawei actually managed to crawl to the bucket before he lifted the lid. So the man made up his mind and was about to make a move — —
A familiar feeling came from his leg.
"… Motherf * cker!"
Success was right in front of him, but it was destroyed again. The man was furious. He squatted down and used his elbow to hit Nie Dawei's cheeks, chest, and ribs.
"I didn't want to kill you, but you f * cking got in the way. Fine, I'll let you taste the worst way to die!"
In the dark night, the sound of flesh being smashed mixed with the sound of ribs breaking made people shudder. Nie Dawei clenched his teeth tightly and didn't make a sound.
He was afraid that his daughter would be scared if she heard.
The man smashed for a while. When he was tired, he grabbed Nie Dawei's neck. "Do you want to die now or enjoy it for a while, hmm?"
Nie Dawei's throat was strangled to the point where he could only groan. Large streams of blood flowed out from the corners of his mouth like small streams.
It was boring to fight a weak opponent. The man was tired of playing. He grabbed Nie Dawei's neck and slowly lifted him up, admiring the fear of death in his eyes.
But he was surprised to find that there was no fear in his eyes.
Before he could figure out what was going on, his throat was inexplicably cold, and then hot.
He looked down and saw a knife in his throat. The knife was somewhat familiar.
It was the knife he … put in his pocket just now.
Using the last of his strength, Nie Dawei stabbed the knife deeper. Then, ignoring the fallen body, he rolled and crawled to the dirty trash can.
"Tingting, don't be afraid. Daddy is coming …"
.
Qi Xingchen's side wasn't as miserable as Nie Dawei's side, but it wasn't much worse. The other side had twice as many people as them, and all of them had been trained. After a long fight, physical strength was a big problem, let alone injuries.
Qi Xingchen held the stick in his hand and panted heavily with both hands on his knees. The other three weren't any better. Qi Jiaze wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth. "Brother, why aren't the police here yet? Are we going to die here?!"
In order to make things easier, Qi Xingchen and Bai Ye planned for the night before deciding to come to this deserted suburb. It would be strange if the police came so quickly. Qi Xingchen shook his head. "I don't know. If we don't go back today, I'll repay you in my next life."
"Damn, why are you saying this? It's not a loss for us brothers to die together! "
"Yes." Bai Ye held Qi Xingchen's hand. "I can die without regrets if I can sleep with you forever."
Qi Xingchen's nose twitched, but now wasn't the time to be touched. He scratched Bai Ye's palm and stood up.
In the fight just now, one of his legs was injured by a steel pipe. He couldn't walk at all and could only stand and fight.
Thinking that he was going to attack, the two thugs who were confronting him immediately raised their weapons. Afraid that his lover would be bullied, Bai Ye pressed Qi Xingchen with one of his shoulders and made a defensive posture.
Qi Jiaze and A Lun caught their breath and stood up.
They were sweating too much and it all flowed into their eyes. Qi Jiaze blinked and suddenly saw a figure not far away on the left.
The figure was trying to climb over the wall. He was thin and his face was yellow. The loose hospital gown kept swaying in the wind, as if it would be blown away in the next second.
… Wasn't that Tao Xuan?!
Qi Jiaze was surprised and angry.
What was he doing here? Didn't he know how dangerous it was?!
Moreover, the four of them couldn't even protect themselves, let alone have the time to protect him.
Wasn't this a suicide mission?!
Earlier when they kidnapped Nie Dawei, to reassure Tao Xuan, he shared his location with Tao Xuan.
Tao Xuan must have followed the shared location.
Qi Jiaze regretted it.
But they were already here, and there was no use regretting it. Qi Jiaze glanced over, ready to signal the other party to escape.
The atmosphere was getting tenser and tenser, and another scuffle was about to break out. Just as one of the thugs raised his stick, Tao Tao suddenly said, "Stop."
The thugs all stopped.
Tao Tao walked through the crowd. Because she had been watching from the sidelines, her white dress was not stained by a speck of dust. It was a sharp contrast to the four people who had rolled in the dirt countless times.
She stopped in front of Bai Ye. "Even if you're injured, you don't look embarrassed at all. You're indeed my man."
Bai Ye frowned. "Don't flatter yourself."
"Flatter myself? You're saying that I'm flattering myself? "
Tao Tao seemed to be in disbelief. She repeated it twice and raised her voice. "Do you know, if it weren't for Qi Xingchen's interference, you would have been with me!"
Bai Ye sneered as if he had heard the funniest joke in the world. "Even if it weren't for Xing Xing, I wouldn't have fallen for a vicious woman like you."
"You —"
Tao Tao's pretty face suddenly twisted. She was furious and raised her hand as if she wanted to slap Bai Ye.
But then she put it down.
She took a deep breath and turned to Qi Xingchen. "Look, he's so loyal to you. What a pity, what a pity. Do you think you've won by taking away Bai Ye? "
Qi Xingchen frowned. "I've never thought of Bai Ye as the deciding factor, and I've never thought of fighting with you. Your so-called victory or defeat is nothing but your imagination. "
"Tsk, tsk, tsk." Tao Tao smacked her lips. "I really hate people like you. You say you won't fight, but you get all the good things. I can't help but be envious. I'm so envious that I want to … "
She leaned close to Qi Xingchen's ear and said slowly, "Destroy you."
Qi Xingchen was not afraid of fighting four people at once, but now he shuddered when he heard those words. The fine hairs on his arms all stood up, and an ominous premonition welled up in his heart.
Seeing his bewildered expression, Tao Tao was very satisfied. She crossed her arms and asked as she paced, "Do you know how I chased you all the way here?"
The four of them were silent. This was also a question they had never figured out.
"Then have you thought about it? Whether I ordered Director Li to run away or bribed the employees of Qi Group to falsify the accounts, I was using someone else's hands. Why would I personally contact Nie Dawei and leave clues for Xu Changlin? "
Qi Xingchen was stunned.
That's right, neither he nor Bai Ye thought about it. With Tao Tao's flawless methods, how could she leave the most important and easiest clue for them to investigate?
Qi Xingchen said with difficulty, "You did it on purpose?"
"You're so smart." Tao Tao smiled.
Qi Xingchen said, "You knew that we would come to find Nie Dawei, so you've been monitoring Nie Dawei's movements?"
"Wow." Tao Tao's smile deepened. "I want to destroy you even more."
Qi Xingchen's eyelids twitched. He thought that Tao Tao's method of destroying the Qi Group was ruthless enough.
Who would have thought that this matter had been carefully arranged by Tao Tao from the beginning?
But … What was Tao Tao's purpose for setting this up?
Qi Xingchen said, "Have you thought about how to destroy me?"
"Of course, I've already planned it." Tao Tao paused. "My people should have found Nie Dawei and the others. When the little girl comes back later, I'll hold your hand and stab her in the chest. Then, I'll tie her father to a stone and throw him into the river. Tomorrow's news will say that the third young master of the Qi Group kidnapped migrant workers and killed the father and daughter. What do you think the public will think of you?"
Qi Xingchen: "…"
It turned out that the video they recorded was completely prepared for Tao Tao. As long as Tao Tao edited it slightly, their words would become evidence of Nie Dawei's murder.
Not to mention that they had really kidnapped him.
It had to be said that Tao Tao, who had the memory of her rebirth, had too many advantages over them.
When the others heard Tao Tao's plan, they couldn't help but show disgusted expressions. It was hard to imagine that there was such a vicious person in the world who had no regard for human life.
Qi Jiaze was so angry that he spoke without thinking. "Are you crazy? If you hate my brother, just come at us. Why do you have to sacrifice so many lives?! "
"Yes, I'm crazy!"
Tao Tao laughed even more happily. "Qi Xingchen took away everything that should have belonged to me. How can killing him be enough? I want to ruin his reputation! I want him to bear the crime of killing a six-year-old girl and die in disdain and scolding! "
"But what can you get by doing this? You killed my brother. Those who don't like you will still not like you!"
The words "don't like" seemed to have hit a sore spot. Tao Tao's face darkened. "It's not up to you to lecture me. If it weren't for the fact that you took care of Tao Xuan, I would have killed you long ago!"
"You still have the cheek to mention Tao Xuan?"
At the mention of Tao Xuan, Qi Jiaze was even angrier. "How many times have you seen him since he was hospitalized? Did you know that he was not used to living here at first and would call your name every night before he went to bed? Did you care about his condition with the doctor? Have you ever fulfilled your responsibility as an elder sister, even for a day? "
Hearing this, Tao Tao was stunned for a few seconds. But then her face darkened even more. She walked in front of Qi Jiaze. "Since you don't know how to appreciate favors and don't cherish the life I left you …"
As she spoke, she pulled out the knife. "Then I'll take it back!"
She raised the knife high. No one would have thought that her temperament had changed to the point where she would kill someone on a whim!
Most importantly, because Qi Jiaze was too close to her, before he could react, the knife had already begun to fall. He wanted to block it, but just as he raised his arm, the man next to him very perceptively hit his arm with a stick.
"Ouch —" Qi Jiaze felt the pain and changed to retreat. Two of the thugs instantly rushed up to grab him and pinned his hands behind his back.
After fighting for so long, Qi Jiaze's physical strength was already at its limit. For a moment, he could not break free. Seeing that his brother was in trouble, Qi Xingchen did not care about anything else and jumped with one leg toward Tao Tao. Bai Ye and A Lun ran toward Qi Jiaze, trying to see if they could save him before Tao Tao attacked.
But the knife fell too fast, faster than expected. It was so fast that Qi Jiaze did not have time to think about whether there were any regrets that he had yet to fulfill.
The knife was already at his chest.
'Forget it, if I die, then I die.' Qi Jiaze thought optimistically. He hoped that he could immediately become a malicious spirit after death. He would first save his brother, brother-in-law, and A Lun, and then send Tao Xuan back to the hospital …
"Slash —" The sound of the knife stabbing into flesh was heard.
Qi Jiaze did not feel any pain.
'Is death so easy?' He opened his eyes in a daze.
Then he saw the thin figure in a hospital gown standing in front of him.
Tao Xuan's appearance was too unexpected. For a moment, there was a terrifying silence. About thirty seconds later, Qi Jiaze's trembling voice was heard. "Blood, so much blood!"
He hugged Tao Xuan and sat on the ground, covering Tao Xuan's wound with both hands. "I can't stop it. What should I do? There's so much blood … Brother, hurry up and find gauze and anti-inflammatory medicine. Hurry!"
"Don't, don't be silly." Tao Xuan shook his head helplessly. "This is the suburbs. How can there be gauze?"
"But, but without gauze, what should I do? I can't stop it!"
"Okay, okay, don't cry." Tao Xuan coughed twice. "Give me some time, okay? I have something to say."
Qi Jiaze obediently closed his mouth, but he could not control his tears. Tao Xuan reached out to wipe his tears, but found that it was endless. In the end, he gave up and took out his phone.
"Sister."
He called out to Tao Tao, who was in a daze. "I've recorded everything you said and sent it to the police. They're not far behind me. They'll be here soon. Let's stop. I hope I'm the last person you … kill. "
Then, he held Qi Xingchen's hand. "Brother Xing Xing, I know that you asked Jiaze to take care of me and tutor me. Thank you. I'm very grateful to have you as my brother in this life. "
Perhaps because he had said too much in one breath, Tao Xuan panted for a while before looking up at Qi Jiaze. "… Why are you still crying? Didn't you say that men shouldn't cry? Don't cry. Listen to me. "
"Jiaze, I've lived for 17 years, and the happiest days have been when you were with me. I've often wondered what kind of dogshit luck I had to meet you. "
"I also want to apologize to you. I promised to take the college entrance exam with you. Now, it seems that I'm going to have to break the promise … But even without me, you still have to take the exam seriously, okay? I'll be watching you from the sky. "
"… Mm, mm, mm …" Qi Jiaze choked with sobs.
"That's more like it … Look."
Tao Xuan struggled to raise his phone. The screen showed the two of them sharing their location. "Look, the two little arrows that represent you and me have overlapped. It means that we'll always be together. Jiaze, don't miss me, and don't forget me. "
"We'll always be together …"
The hand holding the phone slipped weakly.
Tao Xuan was forever left on June 3rd.
The one who did not have time for surgery and did not have time to take the college entrance exam with Qi Jiaze.
