Chapter 1140: The Mastermind Behind the Scenes
"Yes, yes, yes..." The man kept saying yes for a long time but never told Jiang Xue who it was. Because he hesitated when he started speaking, remembering what the other party had said.
"If you dare betray me, then you won’t live!"
At this moment, the man regretted it. He was afraid of dying. But he was also afraid of pain. What should he do?
"Regretting it?" Jiang Xue could see the man’s hesitation at a glance, and her gaze grew cold.
"No, it’s not!" The man sensed Jiang Xue’s murderous intent and became frightened again, shrinking back, then said, "I, I said it, she will kill me!"
"You’re afraid she’ll kill you, aren’t you also afraid that I might kill you?" Jiang Xue sneered. Fear of death is a human instinct; do they all think she’s easy to deal with?
"I, I, I!"
Watching the man stammer, Jiang Xue’s patience was wearing thin, her expression growing colder, and she said, "I’ll give you one last chance, talk, or not?"
As Jiang Xue asked, she once again revealed the silver needles. The man looked at them, panicked, and blurted out, "It’s, it’s Miss Nangong!"
"Nangong Yao?" Jiang Xue confirmed.
The man nodded and said, "Yes, it’s her!"
Seeing the man nod, a fierce spirit rose within Jiang Xue. She had previously speculated that it might be Nangong Yao who sent these people, and indeed it was. She’s only been in Beijing for a few days, and the only person she’s offended is her.
Fine, very good, she dares to send people to hit her, truly bold.
Knowing who was behind the plot, Jiang Xue coldly glanced at those men and then spat out two words: "Scram!"
Upon hearing these two words, the men lying on the ground were like they had been granted an amnesty, quickly getting up to escape. However, just as they stood up, Lu Jintian suddenly spoke, "You’re just going to leave like that?"
"We, us?" A few men turned to look at Lu Jintian, not quite understanding what he intended to do, just about to ask when a sound of police sirens came, causing the color on their faces to change immediately.
They looked at Jiang Xue, and then at Lu Jintian, their faces turning pale. Especially the one who had exposed Nangong Yao, his expression became even uglier. He thought that by exposing Nangong Yao, Jiang Xue would let them go, but didn’t expect Jiang Xue to let them leave, but someone else wouldn’t let them.
The police got out of the car and then asked, "Who called the police?"
"I did!" Lu Jintian stepped forward and said to the police, "These people attacked others in broad daylight, please take them back for good education, officer."
"Mr. Lu, it’s you!" The police recognized Lu Jintian, smiling and greeted, then said, "Rest assured, we will definitely educate them well."
After that, the police directly handcuffed the men and took them away. Once the police left, Jiang Xue thanked Lan Tianyu and others, then took her son from Lu Jintian’s arms and said, "Brother, I need to go to Chenyuan."
"Xue’er, you want to find Mr. Nangong?" Lu Jintian looked at Jiang Xue, worriedly saying, "Xue’er, what if they’re doing this on purpose?"
Lu Jintian naturally heard the man say it was Nangong Yao’s instruction. Now, Jiang Xue wants to find Nangong Chen, what if he and his sister are working together with malicious intent towards Jiang Xue?
"Brother, don’t worry, I know what I’m doing." Jiang Xue understood Lu Jintian was worried about her, but according to her understanding of Nangong Chen, he shouldn’t be that kind of person.
