Kidnappers riddled with scars? What does that mean? Could it be that someone had saved her before Wu Hao arrived?
Xu Wennuan's delicate brows furrowed tightly.
"That's right. Someone had already saved you before I arrived …"
Wu Hao had not even glanced at Xu Wennuan, but he seemed to have guessed the doubts in her heart, so he calmly answered her.
Xu Wennuan's eyes widened abruptly, and her lips parted for a long time before she said, "Are you saying that the person who saved me that day wasn't actually you?"
"At that time, there were actually only two kidnappers by your side. One of them was later fished out of the river behind the abandoned factory by the police. If my guess is correct, the person who saved you had the intention to perish together with the kidnapper who had fallen into the river and jumped out of the window."
Wu Hao did not directly answer Xu Wennuan's question. Instead, he told her everything he had seen when he had arrived, as well as his conjectures.
After he finished speaking, he was silent for a moment before he raised his hand and took out the watch from his pocket. He slowly handed it to Xu Wennuan. "I found this watch at the place where you were kidnapped that night."
Xu Wennuan stared at the watch in Wu Hao's palm in shock for a long time before she slowly extended her hand and took it from him.
She carefully scrutinized the watch for a long time with the help of the dim yellow light surrounding the rooftop. She found it familiar, but she could not recall where she had seen it before.
Wu Hao tilted his head slightly and glanced at Xu Wennuan before his gaze landed on the watch in her hand. A gust of wind swept across the rooftop, and in the silence of the surroundings, Wu Hao could clearly hear the light ticking of the watch. He followed the rhythm and counted in his heart. Instead of directly telling Xu Wennuan who the watch belonged to, he said, "When I was driving you back to the city, I saw a car near the place where you were kidnapped. The license plate number was …" Wu Hao then recited a string of numbers that Xu Wennuan could not be more familiar with.
The entire world seemed to freeze at that moment.
Xu Wennuan stared fixedly at the watch, forgetting to breathe and her heartbeat.
In her mind, she repeated the license plate number that Wu Hao had recited over and over again for a long time before she finally came up with two words: Lu Bancheng.
Lu Bancheng's license plate number … Why would he go to the suburbs for no reason? They had agreed to meet under the bridge next to the Majestic Clubhouse on the night of my accident. As these thoughts flashed through Xu Wennuan's mind, she suddenly realized why the watch in her palm looked so familiar. Isn't this the watch that Lu Bancheng wears all year round?
Wu Hao had just said that he had found this watch at the place where she had met with an accident … So, before Wu Hao arrived, the person who had saved her was …
Although Wu Hao didn't look at Xu Wennuan, he could tell from the atmosphere that she already knew who had saved her, but he still said, "The person who saved you that night was Lu Bancheng."
Xu Wennuan's entire body trembled violently, and the watch fell from her fingers, landing heavily on the rooftop.
Wu Hao didn't turn to look at the girl's expression. He didn't even dare to imagine what her expression was like. He continued in a quiet voice, "And in order to save you, his leg was crippled."
