Xiao Lin didn't know how to persuade Zhu Zhengchu to stop when Zhu Zhengchu's phone rang. He originally had no intention of answering it, but Xiao Lin insisted on bringing the phone to him. "Brother Zhu, Brother Zhu, listen. Maybe it's something important."
Zhu Zhengchu said impatiently, "Who?!"
A voice that was clearly using a voice changer came from the other end of the phone. "Do you want to know where Xiang Yutang is?"
Xiao Lin thought it was bad. It was still about this matter. Brother Zhu would surely lose his mind and insist on going out no matter what.
Zhu Zhengchu said anxiously, "Where is she? Did you take her away? I'm warning you. You'd better not mess around. Otherwise, I'll make you regret it for the rest of your life!"
"Hehe, it's too early to say these things now, Zhu Zhengchu. I'll send you an address. You must come alone. Otherwise, you'll receive photos of Xiang Yutang's corpse."
"You! Hello?! Hello!" Zhu Zhengchu was extremely anxious. After the call ended, he received an address.
"Brother Zhu, what are you going to do?" Xiao Lin asked timidly. He never thought such a thing would happen in his life.
Zhu Zhengchu tightened his grip on the phone.
Inside an abandoned factory, Xiang Yutang and Zhuo Ziyu woke up from their stupor. Both of them were tightly tied up. Zhuo Ziyu was completely panicked, while Xiang Yutang still had some sense. Looking at the several black - clothed men standing in front of her, she coldly questioned, "Who are you exactly? What do you want?"
The black - clothed men didn't answer her. Xiang Yutang turned her head and looked at Zhuo Ziyu.
"Baby, don't be afraid. I'll take you out. Don't be afraid, okay?"
"Too bad. You won't be able to get out." A female voice came from not far away, with a hint of cruelty and evil.
Xiang Yutang looked back. Xia Helan?! Why was she here? They hadn't had any contact since Xia Helan withdrew from the competition a year ago. What was she up to?
Xia Helan looked a bit smug. She walked up to Xiang Yutang and slapped her.
"Didn't you expect that one day you'd fall into my hands, Xiang Yutang?"
Xiang Yutang didn't get angry after being slapped. Staying calm was the best thing to do at this moment. "Xia Helan, what exactly do you want? If you want to take revenge on me for what happened before, you can target me alone. Don't involve Ziyu."
Zhuo Ziyu said fearfully, "Yutang..."
Xia Helan sneered cruelly, "Target you? Don't worry. I will definitely target you. Zhuo Ziyu is just being implicated by you."
After saying that, Xia Helan suddenly grabbed Xiang Yutang's hair. Hatred flashed in her eyes. "It's all because of you and Zhu Zhengchu that I had to quit the entertainment industry. I had such a bright future, but it was all ruined by you two!" At that time, there were endless scandals about her. She was not only verbally abused by fans every day, but also ridiculed by her relatives when she got home. She couldn't even hold her head up during those days. At first, she thought it was Xiang Yutang who was behind it. By chance later, she found out that it was actually Zhu Zhengchu who was manipulating it. But Zhu Zhengchu did it to vent his anger for Xiang Yutang. After she learned the truth, she had been brewing this revenge plan.
Now she had nothing left, and she was not afraid of anything. Even if she would go to jail because of this, she didn't care. Xiang Yutang and Zhu Zhengchu had ruined her wonderful life, and she would make sure they didn't end up well.
Xiang Yutang sneered, "Because of me and Zhu Zhengchu? Why don't you think about it? If you hadn't been so self - destructive and aggressive back then, why would we have done this?"
People like Xia Helan would never think about their own problems. She only thought that the whole world was sorry for her, and she was the most pitiful victim.
Xia Helan's eyes were extremely terrifying. "Xiang Yutang, say whatever you want now. Guess if your Zhu Zhengchu will get out of the hospital bed because of you?"
Xiang Yutang's expression changed. "Xia Helan, this is a matter between us. You don't need to involve outsiders. Zhu Zhengchu has nothing to do with me now. He won't come for me, an outsider. You can forget about it!"
Xia Helan laughed loudly. "Really? He won't come for you? Do you know that he's limping from the hospital for you right now? The great star Zhu looks so pathetic."
Xiang Yutang felt a chill in her heart. Was Zhu Zhengchu really coming? Why was that idiot coming?
She had never hoped so much that Zhu Zhengchu's feelings for her were fake.
"What? Worried? Don't worry. I'll definitely make sure you die together." Xia Helan laughed.
Zhuo Ziyu looked at Xia Helan's terrifying appearance and summoned up the courage to say, "Xia Helan, please don't do this, okay? I'll give you whatever you want. I can give you money, a lot of money. Please let us go. If you let us go now, we won't hold anything against you."
Xia Helan looked at her. "Zhuo Ziyu, you're really stupid. I've come this far. I don't expect to turn back. Now I don't want anything. I just want to watch them die in front of me."
Xiang Yutang said, "Ziyu! Don't pay attention to her."
Xia Helan let go of Xiang Yutang, checked the time, and said happily, "Drag Xiang Yutang out."
Zhuo Ziyu panicked. "What are you going to do? No! Don't take her away. Take me instead. Don't take her away!"
"Ziyu! It's none of your business. Stay here and wait for everyone to rescue you."
"Yutang!"
Zhuo Ziyu refused to give up and tried to follow, but was kicked away by Xia Helan. A cut was made on her cheek, and blood was flowing down.
Xia Helan said, "Zhuo Ziyu, you'd better be obedient. Then I might spare your life."
Zhuo Ziyu begged her bitterly, "Please, please let Yutang go. I'll apologize to you on her behalf. Please."
Xia Helan squatted down and tightly grabbed her face. "The thing I hate the most is that everyone is on her side. Why is she such a favored child of heaven and so many people like her? Hehe."
Before Zhuo Ziyu could say anything else, Xia Helan let go of her and stood up.
Xiang Yutang was dragged to the middle of the scrapyard. There was a big black car in front of her. No matter how calm Xiang Yutang was, she started to be afraid at this moment. What was Xia Helan planning to do? Run her over with the car?
She never thought she would end her life like this. What would happen to her family? Zhuo Ziyu would be heart - broken. And Zhu Zhengchu... Zhu Zhengchu mustn't come...
Just as Xiang Yutang was praying for Zhu Zhengchu not to come, she heard Zhu Zhengchu's voice.
"Yutang!"
