C5 (2/2)

The person who made the sound must be a person. I was overjoyed and hurriedly walked over.

Then I saw a mass of dark green light rise from the grass, and then a dark green face.

That face was not Soo Soo's!

My hair stood on end and my whole body felt like it had been electrocuted. I subconsciously wanted to run away.

However, just as he was about to turn around, he was hit on the shoulder by a pole and fell to the ground with a stuffy groan.

I struggled to get up from the ground, and then I heard a rush of noise around me.

Then I saw a jumbled flash of light. Soon, the spot where I was lying was illuminated.

I could see that I was surrounded by a group of people. Most of the flashlight beams hit my face, making it hard for me to open my eyes.

I asked them who they were, and then I heard a familiar voice: Or you, boy!

I instantly recognized that voice. It was Zhao Wu.

I felt a chill in my heart. I didn't know why he would suddenly appear in this place.

Then I felt a pain in my scalp, and my hair was pulled up from the ground.

Zhao Wu grabbed my hair tightly and looked at me ferociously. ”You two bastards of the Wu family dared to dig my son's grave after kidnapping a member of my Zhao family. You must be living for too long!”

As I said that, a Fist of Heart strikes on my chest.

I fell to my knees, almost choking.

Zhao Wu asked me, ”Where is that lowly girl's corpse? Where is my son's body? Did you take it away from me?!”

I said I didn't know. I didn't do anything. However, Zhao Wu didn't believe it at all and kicked me in the face.

My eyes went blurry from the kick, and I almost fainted.

But Zhao Wu didn't have any intention of stopping. He grabbed my hair, dragged me to his son's grave and shouted angrily, ”If it wasn't you, then what are you doing here at night? If it wasn't you, then who else could have dug this pit!”

In a trance, I did indeed see a big hole in front of Zhao Quan'er's grave that could let a person in and out.

My heart sank. I felt that my guess was right. Soo Soo must have been hiding here.

Soo Soo had told me earlier that she had escaped at the last moment, so Zhao Wu must not have known that she was still alive.

That's why I had to hide it from him. Otherwise, Soo Soo would be in danger.

So I gritted my teeth and told him that I didn't know anything and that this pit had nothing to do with me.

Zhao Wu obviously didn't believe me. After kicking me a few times, he waved his hand and called out to those people, ”Lift him up. I want to see how hard Old Wu's family members can be.”

I was tied to a thick stick like a pig and carried home.

My father was startled when he saw me being carried back. He quickly asked, ”Fifth Brother, what's wrong?”

Zhao Wu slapped my father in the face and said, ”You old boneless son of a bitch, your family is all just eating red meat and white feces.”

He hit my dad until blood foamed up from the corner of his mouth and he didn't dare to retaliate.

Let him put me down. I want to fight him.

Don't be angry, Fifth Brother, my father said timidly. What did he say? There must be some kind of misunderstanding.

Zhao Wu spat: What a mistake, I say your family is already like a dog. Your little bastard kidnapped my daughter-in-law, and I didn't do anything to you, did I? Now that you dare to dig my son's grave, your family will look down on you, right?

My father turned pale with fright and asked me what was going on.

I was going crazy, screaming that I was going to sue him in court.

Zhao Wu chuckled and said, ”Okay, put him down. I'll watch him sue.”

As soon as they let me go, I rushed out the door.

But after rushing a bit I stopped again, because those people had no intention of stopping me at all.
