Chapter 150
I’ll Die in Front of Your Eyes (2)
Only then could Hong Xingguo wipe off his cold sweat. He stuffed Jiang Xiaoman inside a run-down car that he rented and left.
He wanted to take Jiang Xiaoman to get some money.
A few days ago, when Hong Xingguo went out to do some errands, he saw a missing person notice on the road.
He couldn’t read what was written, and only understood after asking other people. It said that a girl had been lost since she was a baby. The family had been looking for her for several years but had not managed to find her. If anyone could provide clues or find the child, they would reward them.
There was a picture of the baby on the missing person notice.
All babies looked the same, so naturally no one could provide any clue.
But Hong Xingguo was different.
He had seen Jiang Xiaoman when she was a child, and he felt that the baby looked very similar to her. In addition, her origins were unknown, and he had long suspected that the Jiang family had stolen or abducted her. The more he thought about it, the more he realized that it was a big possibility. He planned to bring Xiaoman there for the reward.
Anyways, the missing person notice said that regardless of whether it was the correct child or not, as long as he provided some information, he could get some money.
What if the blind cat ran into a dead mouse?
Didn’t that mean getting rich overnight?
But if he wanted to take Jiang Xiaoman away, Jiang Xiumei would definitely not agree.
The reward was also very impressive, and Hong Xingguo wanted to take it all for himself and didn’t want to split it. If the people who lost the child found out that Jiang Xiumei was the one who raised the child for so many years and gave the money to her instead, then what?
Wouldn’t he have done everything for nothing?
After thinking about it, Hong Xingguo came up with this strategy.
As long as he moved fast enough and finalized the matter before the Jiang family could react, then the money would be his. On top of that, he could report the Jiang family for kidnapping and selling children, so Jiang Xiumei and Jiang Xing would definitely get punished.
If both of them were in prison, then wouldn’t Jiang Xing’s logistics team and the family properties he fought for fall to his hands as their relative?
This would be killing two birds with one stone.
He couldn’t stop a smile from forming at the corners of his mouth, and he took Xiaoman away from the village overnight.
–
When Jiang Xiaoman woke up, the sky had already turned dark.
She didn’t sleep well; her head was still dizzy and her mind was cloudy.
She looked around and found herself inside a small house. It was very small and dark, and had a musty smell. The corner of the wall was cracked, with water seeping in and moss growing on it.
It was quiet outside without any sound, only the occasional noise from the traffic. It seemed that the location was very remote.
She sat on the bed shaking her head, her eyes still a bit blank.
“Host, this is a disaster. You’ve been kidnapped.” The system said.
A kidnapper? Wasn’t that a kind of really, really bad person who specialized in bullying children?
Jiang Xiaoman was taken aback for a while. Only after the system reminded her did she recall what happened before she fainted.
It was that Hong Xingguo! That man who claimed to be her Granduncle was the one who had kidnapped her!
Wuu wuu wuu!
No, she had to hold on, she couldn’t cry!
Jiang Xiaoman held back her tears and said, “Brother System, where is this place?”
“…this system doesn’t know either.”
Where Jiang Xiaoman lived was where the system lived. Jiang Xiaoman had not been to this place before, so naturally the system had not either.
Jiang Xiaoman thought for a while and said, “Where is he going to take me?”
Hong Xingguo was someone who didn’t show up in the script. In the original scenario, he had absolutely nothing to do with her and never appeared in the story. The system had zero knowledge of him.
The system thought about it silently, but there was nothing related to Hong Xingguo at all in its memory bank.
It couldn’t make any guess at all.
“Normally, kidnappers would steal children to sell them or have them beg for money. Either way, there’s no good ending for them. In this situation, I suggest the host to shout for help and run away.”
Jiang Xiaoman was really obedient and yelled for help a few times.
But the one who came was not a savior, but her enemy instead.
Hong Xingguo was eating instant noodles outside. Hearing Jiang Xiaoman’s cry for help, he immediately rushed inside and sneered, “Smelly girl, I advise you to save your effort. There is no one around. Even if you scream until your throat is sore, no one will hear you. If you don’t obey—”
He paused, his eyes full of threat.
Jiang Xiaoman’s neck shrank back and she asked, “What are you going to do if I don’t obey?”
“I’ll spank you until you are obedient.”
