To Love You Again - zChapter 789
Agreement and cooing sounds came from the surrounding experts.
“How hard it would be? Just subduing this woman would be as easy as chickens…”
“Since we still have time, should we play with them? It’s too bad to let these beauties go to waste.”
The experts commented while laughing. Their eyes glinted with viciousness and lust. Some men even licked their lips.
“You are all cowards! Drugging me and putting a sack on my head? Aren’t you ashamed? Why? Do you think you can beat me if I don’t see you? Try me, cowards.” Tang Xinyang taunted them.
“Xinyang-” Xiong Zhi called out to Tang Xinyang. She was afraid those people would really touch them. However, her voice was overlapped by a loud slap.
Slap!
Xiong Zhi could not see her surrounding aside from the insides of the sack. But hearing the loud sound and the cheers of the experts afterward, she knew that the receiving end of such harsh slap was Tang Xinyang.
“Woman, you are going to die anyway. Why make such a fuss about how you die?”
Tang Xinyang wanted to spit the blood in her mouth in the direction of the voice. However, the sack was preventing her. She could only mock him with words. “Coward-”
Slap! Smack! Bam!
Xiong Zhi heard a series of beating and Tang Xinyang’s groan. Her heart skipped a beat. If this continued on, Tang Xinyang might really die before they were rescued.
“Stop! Don’t hit her anymore! What if she died?! You just said that your master wants us alive! If he found out that you took the privilege that he only should have, what do you think he would do to you?”
Xiong Zhi’s clear voice made all the experts turn to her.
Tang Xinyang who was curling up recognized her voice.
Xiong Zhi…? What is Xiong Zhi doing here?
The expert who was kicking Tang Xinyang halted.
His kicks and punches have strengths. Seeing the wounds from Tang Xinyang was still bleeding, her crumpled clothes were filled with blood and the bruise all over her exposed skin was now black, the man become aware that his beating was excessive. He might accidentally kill the target that they took with so much difficulty.
The expert was suddenly afraid. If he killed the target and his master learned of it, his corpse might join these people.
He had no choice but to stop his beating. He spat on Tang Xinyang angrily, “Your man shot my brother in the head. I might not be able to do the same to you. But Master will get the justice for me by killing you. Then I will kill your man afterward. ” Then something crossed his mind, “Oh. I forgot. Your man might be dead already.”
Inside the sack, Tang Xinyang’s eyes were red in fury. She tried to sit up, “If he is dead, you will join your brother in hell!”
“Xinyang…” Xiong Zhi warned her.
These people should not be provoked. Though she said it confidently that their master wants them alive, Ming Zhi Yi would surely not care so much if one of them died accidentally. He might be upset but he won’t kill his loyal subordinate for it.
They were like chickens ready to be slaughtered.
The man was incensed again by Tang Xinyang’s tone. “This bitch!”
However before he could kick Tang Xinyang, another group of experts arrived. The man held his anger in and step aside. He was afraid his master would catch him in the act.
The newcomers put down a person on the floor. Like Tang Xinyang and Xiong Zhi, he had a sack on his head. Not even a minute passed when another group appeared and brought another person. They lined them up beside Xiong Zhi.
While this was happening, Tang Xinyang inched towards Xiong Zhi. While the experts were busy preparing something they could not see, she whispered to Xiong Zhi’s side, “Xiong Zhi? Is that really you?”
“It’s me.”
“Oh, god. It’s really you! How come you are here? Don’t tell me…they attacked the hall as well?!”
“Yes.”
Tang Xinyang: !!!
Those people intruded the place filled with Tang experts! Since Xiong Zhi was here, they were undoubtedly successful.
How did the enemy manage to kidnap people from there?
Tang Xinyang could imagine the chaos it caused in the hall. For the enemy to be successful to attack a place filled with experts, their strength and number should be great as the Tang experts there.
Tang Xinyang suddenly doubted if she could really escape from here. She planned to fight these experts once the drug wear off. But knowing that now, the possibility to escape seemed impossible. Besides, she also had to take Xiong Zhi with her.
Tang Xinyang suddenly thought of her family.
“My sister and grandma…”
“I am not sure if they took them as well. I fainted in the hall and woke up here. Though, I have an inkling that they would not take any more Tang members other than you.”
Tang Xinyang wanted to believe in Xiong Zhi’s words. It was better if she was the only Tang member here. The matter of Tang family failing to protect its guest would surely cause the downfall of their family. If more core members of the Tang family were kidnapped, it would take another huge toll on the family.
It was at this moment that they heard another voice beside them, “Xiong Zhi? Tang Xinyang? Is that you guys?”
The voice was groggy and weak.
“Lu Yin Ze?” The two women asked with incredulity.
“Why Tang Xinyang is here-” Lu Yin Ze’s voice was interrupted by another man’s whisper.
“Lu Yin Ze? Xiong Zhi? Why are you guys here?” Guan Gu Ri asked in surprise.
The two men that were put beside them were Lu Yin Ze and Guan Gu Ri.
The lined-up people with sacks over their heads communicated with low voices. Ever since they were kidnapped and transferred into this place, this was the first time they became aware of each other’s existence. This was especially true for Guan Gu Ri and Tang Xinyang who were kidnapped alone.
The experts standing at the side saw that their captives were sneakingly communicating with each other. When they were about to interrupt them, they saw a person at the entrance who rose his hand. The experts froze. They back down and continued to stand aside.
Xiong Zhi’s group had a chance to learn each other’s situations before coming here.
From their brief conversation, Xiong Zhi learned that Jang Shin tried to save Tang Xinyang when the Tang building was besieged by the enemy. But fighting many experts alone made Jang Shin almost lose his life. Tang Xinyang was not aware of Jang Shin’s current condition.
Guan Gu Ri also experienced the same thing.
He was in the parking lot when his assistant suddenly attacked him. Guan Gu Ri managed to avoid him and caught him. The assistant explained everything, however, it was too late. Guan Gu Ri was surrounded in the parking lot. He wasn’t been able to call anyone before those people threw a smoke bomb on him.
Unlike the Tang office where many guards and employees died, the only casualty was the assistant. Thus, Guan Gu Ri’s disappearance was unknown to others.
Xiong Zhi and Lu Yin Ze also told the two what happened in the hall in the shortest way possible.
Their brief and low conversation somehow eased the dread and anxiousness in their hearts. In the face of the unknown and possible occurrences of their deaths, having companions lighten up the pressure in their chest.
However, deep inside their hearts, they were alarmed. Why they were gathered here? Why those people did not kill them on the spot?
Why specifically target them?
These questions just brought a wave of trepidation to Xiong Zhi’s heart.
In the middle of their hush voices, crisp footsteps approached them.
Xiong Zhi who was alert in her surroundings heard a new bunch of footsteps. That footstep stopped in front of the red couch.
“How is your reunion?”
A lively voice that did not belong to their group suddenly joined their discussion.
All of the sounds in the room died. It was like someone muted everyone. Even the experts who were snickering and looking at the group on the ground with malicious intention fixed their expressions.
Xiong Zhi trembled when she heard the familiar voice. It was the same with Tang Xinyang, Guan Gu Ri, and Lu Yin Ze.
This voice…
They only heard this voice rarely, but since the owner of this voice was a man they investigated deeply, and feared by many, they could never forget his voice or his way of speaking.
The man who stood before them was none other than Ming Zhi Yi.
