Chapter 2230 No prey can escape

Uncle Quan and Xiao Jun were both mentally prepared for the current situation, so they were not very panicked.

Uncle Quan said, "Ajun, let's just drop you off here. Get out of the car now and I'll drive over there myself."

Xiao Jun did not listen to Uncle Quan.

He knew that even if Uncle Quan got through these people, there would be cars blocking him ahead, and the possibility of Uncle Quan escaping was very small.

He said to Uncle Quan, "You are holding me hostage. As long as you get to the main road, someone will pick you up. I have already made arrangements."

Uncle Quan was stunned for a moment: "If you protect me, you will be making an enemy of your father. If you offend your father, you will have a hard time. You have to think carefully."

Xiao Jun felt bitter inside.

If he doesn't offend his father, he won't have a good life.

Over the years, his father's care for him has only remained on the material level.

His father provided him with a luxurious life and gave him a lot of money to squander, hoping that he would go out and socialize like a so-called normal person and do what his father wanted him to do.

As for the money spent on him, his father was not short of money. The money spent on him might be an astronomical figure for ordinary people, but to his father, it was not even a drop in the bucket.

Deep down in his father's heart, he actually despised and hated him.

He had long been tired of trying to please his father and had wanted to escape from this home.

Perhaps, offending my father and being kicked out of the house is actually a good thing.

"I've already offended him many times recently, so this one doesn't matter." He paused and continued, "I've always regretted that we didn't escape successfully back then. I don't want my uncle to get caught again today."

He and Uncle Quan looked at each other, and Uncle Quan's eyes, hidden by the shadow of his hat brim, flickered.

They seemed to have traveled through countless years, back to that winter, back to the night when Uncle Quan took him and his mother to escape.

The difference is that Uncle Quan’s eyes, which used to be as bright as the moon, are now dark and deep.

Xiao Jun is no longer the ignorant child he used to be. He has grown up and can protect those he wants to protect.

Uncle Quan finally nodded to him.

He took out a knife, held Xiao Jun hostage, and got out of the car from Xiao Jun's side.

Uncle Quan threatened everyone, asking them not to come over, otherwise he would kill Xiao Jun.

When his father saw the two of them, he shook his head in amusement.

"Ajun, you don't think that you are more important to me than Hanlu, do you?"

A chill ran down Xiao Jun's heart. If he wasn't important enough to his father, then would he be unable to protect Uncle Quan from leaving?

Thinking of this, he was surprised to find that his father's words could no longer hurt him at all.

All he was worried about was whether he could protect Uncle Quan and leave.

My father continued, "Wang Quan is holding Hanlu hostage. I'm really worried. Hanlu has made a huge contribution to the company. Without her, many projects would be halted. She's like my right-hand man."

The father took a puff of his cigar and asked Xiao Jun, "Compared to Hanlu, how great do you think your contribution is?"

In the past, facing his father's verbal violence, he would have locked himself in his room, loathing himself, denying himself, and even feeling that breathing was a sin.

But I've experienced it so many times that I've become immune to it.

His value is no longer determined by his father.

He simply felt very sorry for Uncle Quan. He was useless as a hostage, and had caused Uncle Quan to miss his chance to escape...

Uncle Quan said to Xiao's father, "Then let me remind you, without Xiao Jun, who will marry into the Qin family? Without marriage, the Qin family will not bother to cooperate with someone like you."

Needless to say, without the help of the Qin family, with my father's current strength, there is no way to fight against the Chu and Gu families.

The saying that business is like a battlefield is not just talk.

Today, the Xiao family seems as powerful as an empire, and it seems that it will never decline, but if they are not careful, the entire empire will collapse in an instant.

By the time a new empire rises, people will completely forget about the Xiao family within half a year.

Uncle Quan’s words had a certain effect on my father.

He glared at Uncle Quan and Xiao Jun with a gloomy face.

After a moment, he nodded: "Indeed, you are right. This son is still very useful to me."

He paused, "But he's in my way."

As my father spoke, he extended his hand to the bodyguard next to him, and the bodyguard handed him a black longbow.

He drew his bow and aimed the arrow directly at Xiao Jun.

My father likes archery and often goes riding and hunting when he was young. This longbow has been with him for many years and has always been hanging in his study.

Xiao Jun didn't know whether his father would shoot an arrow at him. He just suddenly thought of the time when his father took him hunting.

My father's hit rate is very high, and any prey he wants will not be able to escape...

Xiao Jun never thought that one day he would become his father's prey.

"Even if I don't want this son, I must keep your life." The father said, releasing the bowstring.

At the same time, Uncle Quan pushed Xiao Jun away.

But Xiao Jun was still hit by an arrow. He felt his body being hit hard and fell to the ground.

In the first few seconds, there was no very strong pain, but half of my body was numb. Then, a burning sensation came from my right shoulder and gradually spread to my whole body.

Blood gushed out from his chest, and the strong smell of blood made him feel nauseous.

Time seemed to slow down and he looked at everything around him blankly.

Are you going to die?

I had imagined how I would die, but I never thought I would die at the hands of my father's bow and arrow.

The only sad thing is that I didn’t say goodbye to Ruomu properly.

He even said harsh words to her before leaving...

My father drew his bow and arrow again, and this time, he aimed the arrow at Uncle Quan.

"Back then, I didn't watch you die with my own eyes. It was my mistake. I won't make the same mistake a second time."

After saying that, my father released the bowstring and the arrow hit Uncle Quan in the chest.

Uncle Quan staggered back a few steps and leaned against a tree trunk.

My father handed the bow and arrow to the bodyguard, walked up to Uncle Quan, snatched the black butterfly knife from Uncle Quan's hand, and played with it for a few times.

"This is the same knife I gave you back then. I told you back then that if you behaved well, we could be like brothers, but if you betrayed me, I would kill you with this knife."

After saying this, my father suddenly stabbed Uncle Quan in the heart...

Xiao Jun closed his eyes.

But after two seconds, he realized that Uncle Quan did not make any sound of pain.

He opened his eyes and looked at Uncle Quan who was leaning against the tree trunk next to him. He saw that he had grabbed his father's wrist and the knife in his father's hand was hanging in the air.

Then Uncle Quan reached out and pulled out the arrow from his chest, ripped open his clothes, revealing the protective suit underneath, and smiled at his father: "Mr. Xiao, I won't make the same mistake twice."

After saying that, he pinched Xiao's father's wrist and twisted it hard, and the knife in his father's hand returned to Uncle Quan's hand.
