Chapter 52 He was so frightened that his hand trembled as he checked her breath.

"You bitch, you dare to run away? I'll kill you!" Curly was furious and reached out to grab Xia Yuhuan.

Hearing the sound of wind behind her, Xia Yuhuan didn't dare to delay and quickly moved to the side.

Curly-haired boy grabbed at empty air and became even angrier.

Xia Yuhuan, however, held a fruit knife and calmly stared at Curly and Xiao Er.

"Don't come any closer, or don't blame me if you get scratched!"

Curly was completely stunned when he saw the knife in her hand.

"How come you have a knife? We didn't see you with a knife when we arrested you. Waiter, did you find a knife on her when you tied her up?"

The waiter immediately shook his head: "No."

"It's none of your business where I hide the knife. All you need to know is that it's a real weapon that can hurt people!" Xia Yuhuan snapped.

"Did you see that convoy over there? They're definitely looking for me because I'm missing. I advise you to be smart and stop chasing me. You might still make it if you run now!"

"If we delay any longer, you might get arrested and shot!" Xia Yuhuan roared, her voice trembling with fear.

Although she didn't know what the convoy did and it was all made up, she had to maintain a certain level of intimidation, otherwise she wouldn't have any deterrent effect.

Curly Hair and Xiao Er naturally saw the convoy and headlights from earlier.

Although the light quickly went out, and they weren't sure if the convoy had left or stopped and turned off its lights, Xia Yuhuan's words still made them uneasy.

"Who do you think you are? You think you're some important person? You're missing and a convoy is looking for you? Don't dream about it!" Curly-haired man said disdainfully.

Xia Yuhuan sneered: "What, when Gangzi asked you to help kidnap me, didn't he tell you who I am?"

Curly Hair and Xiao Er exchanged bewildered glances: Identity? What identity? Isn't Xia Yuhuan just an ordinary person?

Looking at them like this, Xia Yuhuan raised an eyebrow meaningfully and said, "It seems Gangzi really didn't tell you."

"Stop trying to fool people with your mystical act. You're just an ordinary person, what kind of identity could you possibly have?" Curly-haired man said, frowning.

“I’m the newlywed daughter-in-law of the Chi family in the military compound. Even if you don’t live in the compound, you’ve been hanging out with Gangzi every day. Has he ever told you what kind of family the Chi family is?” Xia Yuhuan said with amusement.

At this point, all she could do was try to stall for time.

"The Chi family? You're really a member of the Chi family?" Curly-haired man's expression immediately changed upon hearing this.

"Oh, so you know about the Chi family? That makes things easier. Yes, it's the Chi family you're thinking of! So, are you really going to listen to Gangzi and take me back?"

Xia Yuhuan was also gambling, gambling that the two people in front of her knew about the Chi family, and gambling that they would be afraid of the Chi family.

"Damn it, Gangzi, that bastard, he's ruined us!" Curly-haired guy cursed through gritted teeth.

The waiter next to him was clearly not as quick-witted as him, and whispered, "Curly-haired Bro, what is the Chi family? Are they very powerful?"

Curly-haired man negotiated with Xia Yuhuan, "If we let you go now, can you not pursue the matter against us?"

Xia Yuhuan readily agreed: "Of course. You weren't the masterminds, you were just misled. I can let you off the hook, but I will definitely pursue Gangzi's case."

Curly said, "You better keep your word, or don't blame us for being ruthless and finding a chance to kill you."

After making those harsh words, Curly grabbed Xiao Er and turned to run away.

However, they hadn't run more than a few meters when Yan Hu and his men arrived and forced them to retreat at gunpoint.

"You lied to me!" Curly-haired man turned to look at Xia Yuhuan, his eyes filled with malice.

Xia Yuhuan had indeed heard the commotion of Yan Hu and the others approaching long ago.

Whether it was because the spiritual spring had transformed her body, making her hearing and sight sharp, or because of the benefits brought by the space, she could now hear sounds from very, very far away as long as she concentrated on listening to the sounds around her.

She knew someone was coming, but she didn't know who it was.

Seeing that it was Yan Hu, he immediately felt relieved.

She is safe.

Yan Hu ordered his men to seize the two men, then strode up to Xia Yuhuan and asked in a deep voice, "Xia, are you alright? Are you okay? Are you hurt?"

After searching for almost a day, Yan Hu finally saw Xia Yuhuan, and his anxious heart finally settled down.

It's good that she's alright; he was just afraid that something irreparable might have happened to Xia Yuhuan.

Xia Yuhuan looked at Yan Hu and forced a smile: "Uncle Yan, I'm not feeling well, I... I'm going to faint, you have to catch me..."

Before Xia Yuhuan could utter the remaining two words, she closed her eyes and fainted.

Fortunately, before she lost consciousness, she took two steps toward Yan Hu. After losing consciousness, her body fell straight toward Yan Hu.

"Xia, Xia, what's wrong? Don't scare me..." Yan Hu hurriedly hugged her, quite frightened by her.

He called Xia Yuhuan several times, but she didn't respond. Yan Hu was so frightened that his hand trembled as he reached out to check her breath.

Fortunately, his hand reached out and found Xia Yuhuan's breath.

The warm breath on his fingers made Yan Hu breathe a sigh of relief.

"Let's go, quick, back to the military hospital!" Yan Hu picked up Xia Yuhuan and roared.

Curly and Xiao Er were gagged and pressed down, their eyes filled with terror.

They took Gangzi's money and promised to help him kidnap someone. Gangzi said that as long as they helped kidnap the person, he would take care of the rest. Once it was done, he would release the person and prevent any deaths.

They only agreed because Gangzi made that promise.

They thought it was just a small matter and there wouldn't be any problems, but they didn't expect that just kidnapping Xia Yuhuan would cause such a big commotion!

If they had known Xia Yuhuan was from the Chi family, they would never have agreed.

Unfortunately, the fact that they kidnapped Xia Yuhuan is now a done deal, and no amount of explanation can change the fact that they kidnapped her.

They were arrested, and Gangzi disappeared, which meant they were destined to become principal offenders instead of accomplices, and severe punishment awaited them.

As Yan Hu led his men back to the main road, got into their vehicles, and drove away, the lights of the convoy on the main road outside completely disappeared into the wilderness on the outskirts of Beijing.

After they had been gone for a long time, a person slowly emerged from the pile of weeds.

This person was none other than Gangzi.

His face was pale, and he staggered through the wasteland, not daring to stop for even a moment.

Gangzi went to the compound to look for Xia Zhuyu, but couldn't find her. He finally found out that Xia Zhuyu had gone to the Northwest to work as an educated youth.

His heart sank, and he was at a loss for what to do about Xia Yuhuan.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he left the compound, he sensed that the atmosphere on the street was obviously different, and there were many more police officers looking for people nearby.

When Gangzi found out they were looking for Xia Yuhuan, he was completely devastated.

He agreed to help Xia Zhuyu kidnap someone, but Xia Zhuyu herself had been sent down to the Northwest to work in the countryside. If he kidnapped Xia Yuhuan, it would be like kidnapping a huge problem.

Not only will they not gain any benefits, but they may also be implicated and get into trouble.

Gangzi was afraid of being found out, so he sneaked back, thinking that if he could secretly release Xia Yuhuan and let the Chi family find her, they might be fine.

Unexpectedly, they witnessed Yan Hu and his men kidnapping Curly and Xiao Er.

He knew in his heart that Curly and Little Two would not fare well after being taken away, so he could only patiently wait for them to leave before running away on his own.

At times like these, brotherhood and loyalty become completely unimportant.

Preserving your own life is the most important thing.
