The car sped along the remote road.
Lu Xiao 'er drove a low-profile black sedan. Large raindrops smashed against the car window, making him anxious.
He wondered what was going on over there. Once he was done and received the balance, he would be able to hold his head high and return to his hometown in glory. He might even be able to find a good wife and open a small store. The rest of his life would be completely changed.
Behind him, the disguised police officers and Wei Zhe drove a car and followed Lu Xiaoer from a distance.
One car after another, following each other at a certain frequency and distance.
Lü Tianyou turned a corner. This road was even more remote than the one they had driven on previously. They had scouted the area before and usually, no one would come here. But today … the headlights behind him caught his attention.
He comforted himself that he wouldn't be discovered. The kidnappers had been caught and the Lu family would take care of the rest. They had done a perfect job and nothing would happen.
But he didn't expect that … there would be an accident.
If it was really as the Lu family had predicted and the kidnappers only kidnapped Wei Jing and the Wei family didn't care, then this matter would really be settled.
But who knew that there would be an additional Xu Jiahui and then Wei Zhe. This matter involved a lot of people and it wasn't something the Lu family could handle. The Lu family was going crazy. They called Wei He's phone but it was turned off and they couldn't get through.
They wanted to contact the higher-ups to see if they could minimize the losses, but Wei Zhe had already used Wei He's name to pressure them. Who would dare to pick up the phone?
The Lu family … had become an abandoned pawn.
Turning another corner, Lu Xiao 'er stared behind him. Don't follow me, don't follow me … He prayed in his heart. Unfortunately, God didn't hear his voice. Under the man's desperate gaze, one car after another turned into the road.
He had been exposed.
Lu Xiao 'er's trembling fingers couldn't even hold the steering wheel properly. He took out his phone to inform the other four people, wanting them to take the child and leave first. Who knew … the other party would give him a bolt out of the blue. The child … was gone. He had escaped.
"You bunch of trash. Four grown men can't even look after a child. What use do I have for you?!" Lu Xiao 'er scolded. "F * ck your mother! If I don't get the money, we'll all die together!!! "
"Xiao 'er, don't be angry. Calm down! Calm down!! " The people on the other side was scared out of their wits. "We will find the child. Right now. right now."
"The police are behind me." Lu Xiaoer's palms were sweaty. "I'm leading them in circles now. I'll give you an hour to find the child. If you can't, I'll drive the car over."
"Don't even think about running away." Lu Xiao 'er hardened his voice. "Don't forget that I know who you are."
"Yes, yes, yes. Don't worry. We'll definitely look for him."
After the call ended, Lao Si, whose head was bleeding from being smashed, spat out a mouthful of saliva. "Boss, we're really looking for him! It's raining so heavily and the sky is so dark. We can't find him at all. "
"Besides, how are we going to run even if we find him?" Lao San continued, his face full of annoyance.
"What's there to look for?!" "Anyway, each of us got tens of thousands of yuan. Let's run away now and find a remote place to hide. After hiding for a few years, who will remember us when we come out?" The leader said as he rubbed his sweaty hair, his sallow face contorted into a ball.
"You mean … we don't want the rest of the money?" Lao Er looked reluctant.
"Is money more important than your life? While Lu Xiao 'er is dragging the police away, let's run as far as we can. As for Lu Xiao 'er, we can only say that he's unlucky to have been found by the police. We can't do anything about it. We can't just die with him. "
"Alright, let's go."
The four of them decided not to care about anything else. They drove the car that they had prepared beforehand and started to escape.
On the other hand, Lu Xiao 'er wasn't a saint either. He wasn't in the mood to be a saint. The police still needed him to find Wei Jing. Therefore, before they found him, he wouldn't be arrested. After taking a big detour, he drove the car without hesitation to the small courtyard that they had agreed on earlier.
The police were afraid of alerting the enemy, so they drove further back.
With just a glance, Lu Xiao 'er saw the empty courtyard. "Damn it," he cursed in his heart, but he didn't show it on his face. Before the police arrived, he ran into the small forest. When he came to scout the area, he saw that there was a deep river behind the forest.
Lu Xiao 'er was a good swimmer. He decided to use the heavy rain to get rid of the police and then escape across the river.
Unfortunately, the weather wasn't on his side. After about ten minutes, the downpour suddenly became lighter and lighter until there was no more rain. Lu Xiao 'er gritted his teeth in hatred, but he could only run around the forest. He was more familiar with the roads here than the police. He knew where to hide and where to hide.
The police had many people, and all of them were holding bright flashlights. They were prepared to commit a crime in the dark.

"The rain seems to have stopped?" Wei Jing's face was red. His limbs were weak as he nudged Xu Jiahui beside him. "Wake up, we can't stay here any longer. We have to leave quickly."
Xu Jiahui rubbed his eyes and let out a big yawn. Although he didn't have a good sleep, at least he recovered a lot of his tired spirit. Previously, Wei Jing had saved his life and helped him escape from the hands of the kidnappers. Now, he was completely obedient to Wei Jing.
"Where should we go?" Xu Jiahui asked.
"Let's keep going forward!" Wei Jing gasped. His brain was swollen and painful, so he couldn't think. "Let's go as far as we can."
"Okay," Xu Jiahui answered obediently.
The night was very dark, so Xu Jiahui couldn't see Wei Jing's ugly expression. He held the hand of the person beside him tightly, afraid that the burly men would suddenly jump out and take them away.
"Wei Jing … Listen, is there a voice? It seems like it's calling our names?" Xu Jiahui listened carefully and kept looking behind.
"I … I didn't hear it." The child's voice was weak.
Xu Jiahui said, "Oh, then I probably heard wrongly!"
The person he trusted the most now was Wei Jing. If Wei Jing said there was no one, then there was definitely no one!! Definitely!!! But … he really did hear it! It was all an illusion. It was an illusion caused by his hunger!
Xu Jiahui rubbed his stomach. So hungry! So hungry!
"Wei Jing, when can we get out of here!" Xu Jiahui clenched his fists in frustration. He pursed his lips and said, "Thank you for saving me. I caused you trouble. I'm sorry."
Even though he was still young, he knew that he was the one who caused Wei Jing to be beaten up. He even stepped on Wei Jing's shoulders to climb the tree. After that, Wei Jing had to shelter him from the wind and rain. Xu Jiahui was extremely ashamed. When he thought about how he had shamelessly said that he wanted to be a police officer, he couldn't raise his head.
"It's okay." Wei Jing shook his head and said, "Even if you didn't expose yourself, we would still have to climb down from the tree when it rained."
"How is that the same? If it wasn't for me … If it wasn't for me …" Bitter tears flowed down his cheeks and into his mouth. If it wasn't for him, they could have escaped quietly. How could Wei Jing have suffered so much?
"But the end result would still be the same," Wei Jing comforted him.
"You … aren't angry with me?" Xu Jiahui asked carefully.
"I'm not angry." In the darkness, Wei Jing smiled. His eyes were filled with joy and happiness. "I'm very happy to be able to help you." Helping others and receiving their gratitude was a new experience for Wei Jing. It made him feel … that he was no longer a useless person.
In his previous life, his father didn't like him. His mother's family didn't like him. His brother didn't like him at first either.
Later on, he tried his best to please his brother. It took a lot of effort for him to gain his brother's favor. Later on, the two of them got along well and their relationship gradually deepened … Even so, he was still afraid every day. He was afraid that his brother would abandon him because he was useless to him.
But now … he had helped others and proved his worth.
The corners of Wei Jing's lips curled up. He was drowned in satisfaction from the inside out. The pain of the fever seemed to have disappeared.
Rustle rustle rustle ~ ~
The sound of hurried footsteps rang in their ears. The sky was already turning bright. Wei Jing and Xu Jiahui turned their heads at the same time. They couldn't hide the fear on their faces. The person who came was a teenager who looked about 15 or 16 years old. He was wearing a dark blue jacket. He had a baby face and looked very innocent.
Wei Jing's brain was already in a mess. He was stunned for a moment before he said with joy, "Are you here to save us? That's great. "
Xu Jiahui still remembered this annoying teenager. He looked around and blinked. His face instantly turned pale. He grabbed Wei Jing and started running. "Let's go. He's with that group of people."
"Huh?" Wei Jing was stunned. Only then did he realize that even if he was looking for someone, he shouldn't have sent a teenager. He shouldn't have come alone.
Just like that … everything made sense.
But … why did Wei Min want to harm him? He didn't do anything to let him down! In his previous life, they were clearly acquaintances who could casually talk to each other. But now … could this be the butterfly effect?
Because he had been reborn, everything had changed.
Big Brother had changed. Wei Min had also changed.
Now wasn't the time to think about this. They were two exhausted children. How could they be a match for Lü Tianyou? Wei Jing gritted his teeth. Just as he was about to fight it out with the other party, the person beside him was faster than him.
Xu Jiahui rushed in front of Lü Tianyou like a small firecracker. He used the momentum to knock Lü Tianyou to the ground. Then, he used his arm to strangle Lü Tianyou's neck. This set of actions made it impossible for the teenager to resist for the time being.
"I … I'm going to be a police officer. How can I lose to a group of bad guys like you?"
At this moment, Xu Jiahui's clothes were disheveled. His yellow hair was stuck to his forehead, his face was covered in dust, and the veins on his hands were bulging. Although there was fear in his eyes, there was even more determination.
Wei Jing was dumbfounded. He was indeed dumbfounded.
When the night was deep, Wei Jing saved Xu Jiahui.
When the sky gradually brightened, Xu Jiahui saved Wei Jing.
Every drink and every peck was predestined.
"I found the child. He's here. Come over quickly."
