Chapter 133 - The Three Mighty CEOs! (1/2)
”What should I do with you?” Xiaosi eerily smiled as he pulled the leader's hair so harshly that it was tearing off his scalp.
”Ahhh! Ahh! Stop!” He yelled loudly.
Caihong shut her eyes as she couldn't watch it anymore. Xinyi, too, hid behind Zhiyuan's back.
”Xinyi!” He grabbed his shoulders and checked up and down. He held her cheeks and pulled her into his arms. ”Xinyi you are fine right? You are not hurt right?”
Xinyi quietly shook her head and hugged him back. ”No. I am fine. You came back in time otherwise…”
”Ssh,” Zhiyuan hugged her tighter and placed a gentle kiss on top of her head. ”Nothing bad would have happened.”
If not for his instinct, Xinyi and Caihong would be in great trouble now. When he got pricked by the thorn, he couldn't shake off the feeling that Xinyi was in danger. He wanted to see her safe and so he dragged Mia and Xiaosi back with him to the village.
On the other side, Xiaosi smashed the leader's face on the ground until blood spilled out. The villagers jolted.
Xiaosi laughed. ”Yesterday I broke your nose, right? Hm...what should I break today? Oh! Should I gauge your eyeballs out? That will be fun.”
Caihong shuddered by how he seemed to enjoy the torture. She slowly got up and hesitated at first, but then gently put her hand on his shoulder. ”Xiaosi, forget it. We-we will hand them over to the cops in the town…”
He chuckled and quietly said, ”That is not enough for me.”
”Why not?”
”Because he-” he raised his voice and turned to face her when he stopped midway. He couldn't figure it out, but she was looking at him strangely. It was a gaze with which she had never looked at him before.
”Because he?”
Xiaosi grappled his fingers into a tight fist.
”Zhiyuan! Xiaosi!”
Suddenly, they heard Liang's familiar voice and as they turned to look, they saw him coming with dozens of rescue officers marching towards them.
The officers surrounded the village while Liang hugged his friend. ”Zhiyuan! Finally! Gosh, we looked everywhere! Who knew there was a small in the forest!”
Xinyi brightened. ”Liang!”
He grinned. ”Hey, Xinyi. Help is here!”
Zhiyuan smiled and hugged him back. ”Hey, buddy.”
Liang looked around and asked, ”Why are these villagers huddled together like that? And what's with these men here?”
Zhiyuan's gaze turned cold in fury. ”They are the bandits here who were troubling the villagers here and…” he gritted his teeth, ”and dare lay hand on Xinyi.”
His eyes widened and he looked at them in horror. ”You bastards! Thank your stars that my wife is not here or else you would be dead meat!”
The commander of the rescue team stood straight in attention. ”Mr. Han. Apologies for being late. But the storm had completely blocked our way last night and even this morning with trees fallen all around our path. There was a landslide on the other end that took time to clear.”
He smiled. ”It's okay. I understand. I appreciate your efforts for coming to help us even against such odds.”
”It's our duty, Mr. Han!”
Then his voice turned icy. ”First things first. I want you to take away these bandits and hand them over to the cops. I will personally see to it that they get the worst punishment ever. Their terror ends now.”
Xinyi nodded.
”Yes!”
The villagers were confused by this force who suddenly arrived. Mia's grandfather slowly approached them and asked, ”Son who are these…”
He smiled. ”He is my friend, Xu Liang and he brought the rescue team with him to get us out of here.”
