Chapter 340 Qin Yulian Escaped
Chapter 340 Qin Yulian Escaped
Jianshan Village.
Jiang Xing sat in her car, watching the villagers carrying their luggage board the bus one after another outside the window, and said in a somewhat tired voice, "Didn't Mom already go back a long time ago?"
Half an hour ago, several buses suddenly arrived in the village and stopped at the village entrance.
Upon seeing that the person leading the group was actually the butler of the Jiang family's villa in the East District, Jiang Xing quickly realized that these buses were there to pick up the villagers to go to Beijing to celebrate his younger sister Jiang Youli's birthday.
Upon receiving the news, the villagers excitedly went back to their houses to pack their belongings, and soon they came out of their homes one after another and boarded the bus.
Jiang Xing stood in front of the bus, asking every passing villager to take him to celebrate his sister Jiang Youli's birthday, but no one agreed.
The villa manager leading the group in the East District also said politely, "Jiang Xing, I advise you to give up the idea of celebrating Miss's birthday. Your presence will only spoil her mood."
Jiang Xing was speechless.
After a while, he finally gave up and returned to his car dejectedly. As soon as he turned on his phone, he received a call from Jiang Zhao.
"What? Are you sure? Mom hasn't come back at all." Jiang Zhao's voice sounded surprised on the other end of the phone.
Hearing Jiang Zhao say this, Jiang Xing paused for a moment, then quickly said, "I didn't want to go back with Mom, so we had a fight. She was probably feeling upset and didn't plan to go back for the time being, so she went to find a place to relax. Mom is a grown woman, how could she get lost?"
He has no interest in where his mother went; she's just throwing a tantrum to get his attention.
"Well... when are you coming back, big brother? The day after tomorrow is Xiao Li's birthday."
"I'm going back to Beijing today." Jiang Xing withdrew her gaze and sighed silently.
During his time in Jianshan Village, he had been trying his best to help the villagers, but they did not intend to accept his help. Moreover, as soon as they heard that he wanted to attend his sister Jiang Youli's birthday party with them, they immediately became wary.
"Did you rush back for Xiao Li's birthday party?" Jiang Zhao's voice was excited. "Brother, you can attend Xiao Li's birthday party?"
"...No, the villagers are unwilling to accept me, so I'm still not qualified to participate." Jiang Xing's voice was bitter.
"...Alright then, if Mom knows you're back, she'll probably come back tomorrow too." Jiang Zhao's voice was tinged with disappointment.
"Okay, that's all for now. I'll drive back now and should be able to get back to Beijing by midnight."
"it is good."
After hanging up the phone, Jiang Xing took one last deep look at the village where he had stayed for a while. Only after confirming that no one was willing to take him to his sister Jiang Youli's birthday party did he turn his gaze away, start the car, and drive away from the village.
On the bus, Zhou Wang watched Jiang Xing drive away and sneered, "Trying to come with us to Li Ya's birthday party? Wishful thinking!"
Meng Yao said from the side, "Never mind him, just let him go. By the way, Lao Zhou, what gift did you prepare for Li Yatou this year?"
Zhou Wang scratched his head and said, "Hey, I've already taught Li Yatou everything I could. From now on, I only hope that she can live her life on her own. So the gift is very simple, just a sewing kit that I made myself."
Meng Yao smiled and said, "That's what I thought too. I can't teach her anything anymore, so this time I prepared a homemade all-natural lipstick for her. This girl has never liked to dress up since she was little, but now that she's gone to Beijing, returned to a wealthy family, and become a young lady, she should pay more attention to her image."
"Haha, although it's not an expensive gift, I think Li will like it," Zhou Wang said confidently. "After all, Li has always cherished every relationship."
Meng Yao readily agreed, "Yes, she's incredibly skilled, exceptionally intelligent, and still retains a childlike heart. Li Yatou is truly the most outstanding child I've ever met."
……
That night, in a cowshed in a remote village, Qin Yulian, wrapped in tattered and smelly bedding, looked up at the sky, shivering.
She had almost forgotten what time and date it was, and felt that every day was like an eternity.
Suddenly, there was a sound of footsteps.
Qin Yulian immediately looked away and curled up in the corner.
"We've taught her a lesson enough. We'll release her in a couple of days... Okay, I got it. You have no idea how much she's been behaving like a dog."
The man who had kidnapped her walked in while talking on the phone, then kicked Qin Yulian's curled-up body twice. "Hey, big sister, I have some good news for you."
Qin Yulian remained silent.
"Tch, are we going to get played to death like this?"
The man hung up the phone and put it away. Then he squatted down and grabbed Qin Yulian's hair, causing her to groan in pain.
"You're not dead? You're just pretending to be dead!" The man lifted Qin Yulian up roughly, making her stare at him. "Let me tell you, I'll release you in two days. How about that, happy?"
Qin Yulian remained silent and showed no expression.
"Not going to talk? Tch, how boring."
The man loosened his grip on her hair and left, looking dejected.
After the man had been gone for a while and was sure he wouldn't turn back, Qin Yulian painfully sat up, carefully moved her body, and tried to smooth her hair to make herself look less disheveled.
Suddenly, she noticed that the wooden pole to which the chain that had been binding her wrists was attached had a break.
A glimmer of light appeared in her eyes.
If the wooden pole breaks, she will have a chance to escape!
Qin Yulian's breathing became somewhat rapid.
It's nighttime now, the perfect time to escape!
Without further hesitation, she pulled hard on the iron chain, exerting all her strength, and the wooden pole finally broke.
In that instant, she felt a glimmer of hope for survival.
run!
Run quickly!
There was only one thought in her mind.
……
After Qin Yulian hurriedly left the cowshed, the man looked out of the window of the house, then slowly took out his phone again and dialed Jiang Yangxu's number.
"We've deliberately let them go as planned, and barring any unforeseen circumstances, they should be back in Beijing tomorrow."
"It's up to you to figure out how to exacerbate the conflict between your wife and your dear daughter at the birthday party."
……
After hanging up the phone, Jiang Yangxu stood by the window in his room, his eyes filled with complex emotions.
He didn't know how much time had passed before he came to his senses and went back to bed.
Jade Lotus.
I'm sorry, I know you won't blame me, right?
……
Qin Yulian didn't know how long she had been running in the dark, only that she was almost exhausted. No matter how many times she fell, she didn't dare to stop.
Fortunately, she managed to reach a roadside safely.
Moreover, she saw the car lights in the distance, so she stood by the roadside and waved frantically at the car, shouting at the top of her lungs:
"help me!"
