Chapter 971 - 975: Able to Make Them Risk Their Lives
Just when everyone thought it would be calm and peaceful, the true mastermind behind the kidnapping syndicate watched everything turn into ashes, his fierce eyes revealing a murderous gleam!His subordinates captured the woman beside Beitang Yao just to send a warning to Beitang Yao. An Oriental woman told them that there was a bigger catch waiting for them!
Following the information given by the woman and the photos of Beitang Yao’s mistress, they waited near the Beitang Group, ready for the target to appear. When they saw the target, Xia Qingqian, come out from the lobby, hiding in the alley, they secretly thought it was a gift from heaven.
When they demanded a ransom from Beitang Yao, not only did Beitang Yao fail to deliver the ransom at the specified time, but he also didn’t say a word!
Who would have expected that Beitang Yao would hire a contract killer syndicate to capture them all in one go, even reducing their influence in the United Kingdom to ashes! Since when did Beitang Yao have connections with contract killer syndicates?
Even if you have more power and influence, a syndicate may not be willing to work for you! But Beitang Yao could get them to work for him. This, he must investigate thoroughly. And the woman who gave them the information, he won’t let her off either!
From beginning to end, his comrades never betrayed him, surely hoping for him to avenge them! Yes! Revenge! What Beitang Yao did to him today, he will make him repay a thousandfold when he makes a comeback! He will definitely be back!
Beitang Yao’s hand was interlocked with Xia Qingqian’s fingers until the morning sun slowly rose from the east, with gentle rays streaming in through the swaying branches outside.
When he opened the door and came out of Xia Qingqian’s room, he happened to see a servant standing by the door, about to open it from the outside. He gently cleared his throat, easing the strange atmosphere.
The servant snapped back to reality and quickly greeted the young master respectfully. As she watched the young master leave, she gave him an incredulous look. Did the young master stay with Miss Xia all night?
When Beitang Yao returned to his room, he shook his hand, which had lost all sensation, unable to shake off the numbness.
He lay back on the bed, his hand gently resting on one side, his gaze falling on his hands. These were the hands that interlocked with hers all night, until dawn.
He stayed awake all night just to be with her, to give her strength.
"Maria, why are you here?" After waking up, Xia Qingqian rubbed her temples and looked confusedly at Maria, who was opening the curtains.
Maria walked over to Xia Qingqian and helped her up, "Miss Xia, this is the young master’s villa. I’m here to take care of you, of course."
"I remember being engulfed in flames. How did I end up back at the villa?" She was even more puzzled; those vicious kidnappers poured gasoline on her, then ignited the iron cage ten meters away, the raging fire, and the nauseating smell of burning, all vividly in her mind.
Moreover, they lit the fire on her body with a lighter.
"It was the young master who sent people to rescue you. It’s all right now. Don’t think too much." Maria stood up and brought over a cup of ginseng tea, "This ginseng tea was ordered by the young master to be made for you last night to calm your nerves."
"Maria, no—" As soon as Xia Qingqian heard the words "young master," she knocked the ginseng tea out of Maria’s hand and onto the ground, then held her head and said, "Maria, get out! Get out! I’m not a mistress! I’m not!"
