Chapter 891 - 889: Recording Video (1)
Chapter 891: Chapter 889: Recording Video (1)Perhaps because Xia Wan’an and her group had almost escaped just now, this time, several people tied Xia Wan’an up where they could see her.
"What should we do? We’ve already
Since it was already late, only two lamps were lit in the factory, casting dim light. Xia Wan’an couldn’t make out the woman’s face clearly, but with the faint light, she vaguely felt that the woman’s figure was familiar. The only flaw was that the woman walked with a limp, probably with a prosthetic leg, her steps uneven and unbalanced.
Before the woman emerged from the darkness, her voice rang out, "Did you catch them?"
That voice—it was all too familiar to Xia Wan’an.
Ai Jiang...it was actually Ai Jiang?!
No one responded to Ai Jiang.
Compared to the past, Ai Jiang could no longer walk with nimble steps. It took her some time to cover the distance of twenty meters before she appeared in the lit area.
Xia Wan’an finally saw Ai Jiang’s face clearly. She looked much more haggard and aged than when they had met over a month ago. Her eye sockets and cheeks were visibly hollowed out.
After steadying herself, Ai Jiang, seeing that everyone in the room was silent, spoke up again, "Why is nobody talking?"
"Has something gone wrong?"
After Ai Jiang spoke two sentences in a row, someone finally responded, "I’m sorry, Miss Ai, we had already captured the pregnant woman, but... but just now... she escaped."
"Escaped? I spent so much money hiring you, and your final answer is that she escaped?!" Whether in tone or expression, Ai Jiang was very agitated.
In Xia Wan’an’s memory, Ai Jiang was someone who could endure a lot. She had chosen the wrong path back then. With one mistake leading to another, she had progressively degenerated to her current plight...even her personality had become much more radical.
"We’re sorry, it was really our mistake, but, but..." the person reporting to Ai Jiang stuttered, then suddenly raised a hand, pointing to Xia Wan’an, who was tied up beside them: "...it was all because of that woman. She, it was she who screwed up our plan!"
"Right, it was her! If not for her, that pregnant woman wouldn’t have been able to run away from the rooftop!"
"Exactly her, she was the one who posed as the pregnant woman and deceived us..."
Immediately, other people chimed in with their agreement.
Amidst everyone’s babbling, Ai Jiang, with a face full of rage, turned her head and followed the direction they pointed.
When she clearly saw who the woman they were talking about was, a complex emotion burst forth from the depths of her eyes.
It was her?
It was actually Xia Wanwan?
The Xia Wanwan who had caused her to end up in such a desperate and hopeless situation?
If it weren’t for this woman, she wouldn’t have been driven to this wretched and helpless state!
She had made her life so miserable! She had caused her to be disgraced at the charity banquet, to sleep with a garbage scavenger, to lose a leg...
As Ai Jiang’s thoughts became more hateful, the more engulfed she became in that hatred, which even caused her body to tremble slightly.
