As Bai Lu listened to Luo Yuyu and the others' conversation, her face turned pale and then flushed, as ugly as a palette of colors, her heart filled with humiliation and resentment.
She clenched her fists, a ruthless glint in her eyes. She was determined to kill these people and prevent word of what happened today from getting out.
Old Liu caught a glimpse of Bai Lu's face contorted with rage and immediately became wary.
He never underestimated women, let alone a ruthless woman like Bai Lu.
Old Liu withdrew his gaze, thinking to himself that he should remind Chen Biao and the others to be wary of Bai Lu, lest they be tricked by that woman and die without even knowing how.
Yunlong's eyes lit up as he saw a black sedan driving towards them. He quickly stood up. Was it his father bringing his mother back?
Old Liu and the others were overjoyed when they saw the approaching car; their boss was back safe and sound.
As soon as Chu Yunxiao's car stopped, Yunlong ran to the side of the car and stared intently at the car door.
As soon as Chu Yunxiao got out of the car, he saw Yunlong standing beside it, looking at him with red eyes and tear stains on his face.
Chu Yunxiao smiled slightly at Yunlong and said softly, "Yunlong, Daddy's back."
Yunlong, not seeing Liu Anran, asked anxiously, "Dad, where's Mom? Why can't I see her?"
Chu Yunxiao bent down and picked up Yunlong, smiling, "Mom is tired and sleeping, let's not disturb her."
"Dad, I want to see Mom," Yunlong pleaded.
Chu Yunxiao knew that Yunlong wouldn't be at ease if he didn't see Liu Anran, so he opened the passenger door.
Yunlong's eyes lit up as he looked at Liu Anran sitting in the passenger seat. "Mom, it really is Mom! Dad saved Mom!"
Chu Yunxiao closed the car door and said to Yunlong, "Your mother needs to rest, let's not disturb her."
Chen Biao and Liu Xiong approached Chu Yunxiao, looking at him with remorse.
"Boss, it was all my fault for misjudging things, which led to Gangzi and Xiao Wang's deaths," Chen Biao said guiltily.
Chu Yunxiao's expression darkened slightly as he said, "You didn't make a mistake in judgment; you were arrogant. Because of your arrogance, you not only harmed yourself but also everyone else."
"Boss, I was wrong too," Liu Xiong said, bowing his head.
"You've been blinded by lust; you'll die at a woman's hands sooner or later," Chu Yunxiao said coldly.
Chen Biao and Liu Xiong were so ashamed by Chu Yunxiao's words that they wanted to disappear.
Seeing the tense atmosphere, Lao Liu broke the silence, "Boss, should we go to the farmers' houses and look around? Maybe we can find some food."
Chu Yunxiao thought Lao Liu's suggestion was good, and that they should indeed prepare more food. He instructed, "Liu Xiong, you and Yu Yu take your guns and go with Lao Liu to find some food."
“Okay!” Liu Xiong and Luo Yuyu responded in unison.
After Liu Xiong and the others left, Chu Yunxiao looked at the injury on Chen Biao's leg and asked, "Your leg injury?"
"I was lucky; the bullet only grazed my thigh and didn't hit the bone. Old Liu has already treated my wound," Chen said.
Chu Tianxiao said seriously, "We must learn from this lesson and never act rashly again."
"Boss, I will definitely learn from this lesson and will not act impulsively again in the future," Chen Biao said.
Chu Yunxiao, recalling the deaths of Gangzi and Xiao Wang, and the suffering of An Qiao and Liu Anran, said sternly, "Chen Biao, if you are arrogant and reckless again, you should stay by my side no longer."
Chen Biao was shocked and hurriedly said, "Boss, I..."
Chu Yunxiao raised his hand to stop Chen Biao from continuing, "Don't say any more. Your leg is still injured. Go and rest!"
With a heavy expression, Chen Biao leaned on a wooden stick and walked unsteadily to An Qiao's side to sit down.
Bai Lu looked at Chu Yunxiao with regret and resentment in her eyes. Chu Yunxiao was so powerful. If he had acted sooner, she wouldn't have been humiliated in public.
Chu Yunxiao turned his head and met Bai Lu's gaze. He frowned slightly. Why was this woman looking at him with such a strange look?
Bai Lu walked up to Chu Yunxiao and questioned him, "Chu Yunxiao, why didn't you save me? How could you bear to watch a woman be raped in front of you? Doesn't your conscience hurt?"
Chu Yunxiao looked at Bai Lu and saw that Bai Lu's face was pale, her eyes were red, her lips were swollen, and there was even a small cut on her lower lip, which was obviously bitten by teeth. Moving down her lip, her neck was covered with purplish hickeys.
"Are you injured?" Chu Yunxiao asked.
"I've already been raped, and you're asking me if I'm hurt? Are you blind?" Bai Lu shouted angrily.
When Yunlong saw Bailu yelling at Chu Yunxiao, he immediately became displeased and said, "You bad woman, you're not allowed to yell at my father!"
Chu Yunxiao looked down at Yunlong, a look of relief on his face. The little guy was still very protective of his own!
Chu Yunxiao looked at the unconscious An Qiao, whose clothes were disheveled, hair was messy, and the three wounds on her face were shocking. A look of guilt appeared on his face.
"Bai Lu, did you see the injury on An Qiao's face?"
Bai Lu saw it, of course; she's not blind.
Seeing that Bai Lu remained silent, Chu Yunxiao continued, "An Qiao scratched her face to avoid being bullied, making three deep cuts, each one so deep that you could see the bone. If you could do that, perhaps you wouldn't have been raped."
"How do you know she scratched her face herself, and not someone else did?" Bai Lu said indignantly.
"By observing the location and depth of An Qiao's wound, we can determine whether it is on An Qiao's face or whether she cut herself," Chu Yunxiao said.
Chen Biao asked in shock, "Boss, An Qiao is such a coward, how could she dare to cut her own face with a knife?"
“If you don’t believe me, you can ask An Qiao yourself,” Chu Yunxiao said.
“The boss is right, I cut myself on the face,” An Qiao suddenly said, opening her eyes.
When Chen Biao saw that An Qiao was awake, he asked in surprise, "An Qiao, you're awake."
An Qiao had been awake for a while, but she didn't want to face everyone, nor did she want to see the blood all over the ground and the corpses lying on the ground, so she refused to open her eyes.
An Qiao glanced coldly at Chen Biao, then looked away indifferently. She hadn't forgotten how Chen Biao had treated her.
Chen Biao's face was somewhat gloomy. An Qiao hated him, hated herself for pushing her away.
Bai Lu looked at the wound on An Qiao's face and was surprised. It really was An Qiao who cut her own face. How could she do that?
An Qiao reached out and touched her wound, gasping in pain.
"Liu Anran scratched her face to avoid being humiliated. I learned it from her, and it worked well. It scared those thugs quite a bit, and they beat me up in a fit of rage."
An Qiao then looked at Chu Yunxiao and asked, "How is Liu Anran?"
Chu Yunxiao frowned and said, "Her face was swollen and red from being hit, and her hand was broken. She also jumped off the car and is still unconscious."
Everyone saw Liu Anran being pushed into the car by Duan Yi. Hiding it would only arouse suspicion, so it's better to tell them directly.
