Chapter 30: Twenty Years After Being Kidnapped
Xie Wenzhou hid outside for more than a week. None of his former friends who were not stupid dared to take him in. He could only hide everywhere and went hungry every day.
Fortunately, a friend secretly gave him a phone number, and he had already made connections with someone and was able to smuggle himself into Myanmar in two days.
Just wanting to leave would require a large sum of money, and Xie Wenzhou, penniless, could only turn his attention to his family members.
At this time, a lot of police forces were deployed around the Xie family manor. Xie Wenzhou did not dare to show up easily. He waited until midnight and finally crawled in stealthily through a dog hole that had been abandoned for a long time.
The system saw Xie Wenzhou's obese body struggling to crawl through the dog hole from the surveillance video, and laughed unkindly, "Host, why did you ask me to hack into the surveillance cameras set up by the police? Don't you intend to get Xie Wenzhou arrested?"
That doesn't make sense!
The host deliberately asked someone to introduce the smuggling business to Xie Wenzhou, wasn't it just to make him take the risk, go back to the Xie family to get the money, and then be caught on the spot by the police?
"Tsk, don't you think it would be better to let him go home and stage a father-son reunion scene? I'm looking forward to Xie Wenzhou's performance." Feng Wu yawned and said unhappily: "Okay, it's very late. If you don't want to sleep, go play by yourself and don't disturb me."
"Okay, host." The system laughed in its heart, I'm going to be scolded by you for disturbing your sleep, why don't you scold the man next to you who is not sleeping well at all!
Xie Wenzhou, who successfully escaped from the dog hole, breathed a sigh of relief, and was glad that he did not find anyone to deal with the dog hole because he thought it was too troublesome.
Fortunately, the dog hole was not blocked at that time!
It was late at night and the house was quiet. Xie Wenzhou pressed the fingerprint password and the door opened with a ding.
Xie Wenzhou stealthily opened the door to the study, which he remembered contained many of the old man's treasures. If he could just sell one or two of them, he would have enough money to smuggle out of the country.
It's just that these calligraphy and paintings are difficult to sell in the short term. The authentication of calligraphy and ancient paintings takes time, and he is in urgent need of money.
Xie Wenzhou, who hadn't had a good night's sleep for a long time, ate some cakes and milk from the refrigerator in the kitchen. He was so tired that he fell asleep on the sofa in the study.
Before going to bed, Xie Wenzhou was still sighing that home was the best place and he could sleep peacefully.
Early in the morning.
Ma Xiuli went downstairs in her pajamas to get the medicine bottle that Xie Dejun had placed in the study last night.
As soon as he entered the door, he found his eldest son, with an unshaven beard, curled up on the sofa, sleeping soundly.
Seeing her son so haggard and miserable, Ma Xiuli's eyes suddenly turned red. No matter how much she hated her child for not living up to her expectations, she still felt sorry for him and wondered if he had eaten enough these days.
The son must be feeling very miserable as he lives in fear every day!
However, there were police everywhere outside the Xie family's house. Ma Xiuli couldn't bear it anymore, so she patted her son's thinner face and called out in a low voice, "Wenzhou, Wenzhou, my son..."
Xie Wenzhou had a comfortable sleep. When he was woken up, he opened his eyes and saw his biological mother. He immediately hugged her legs in grievance and cried, "Mom, I killed someone. What should I do? I don't want to die!"
Ma Xiuli cried and slapped Xie Wenzhou's back hard, and cursed softly with tears in her eyes, "You bastard, how dare you kill someone? What are you going to do from now on?"
Xie Wenzhou wiped away the tears on his face, his eyes filled with resentment, "Mom, didn't you kill people too? I heard you and my dad plotting to kill Qiao Jianshan's family. You and my dad killed people and nothing happened to me. I will be fine as long as I escape. Mom, give me money. I need a lot of money to go abroad. Mom..."
Ma Xiuli was so shocked by her son's words that she forgot to cry. She looked at Xie Wenzhou with extremely complicated eyes. She never thought that what she and Xie Dejun had done would be seen by her son.
Is this retribution?
No, she doesn't believe in retribution, she only believes that man can conquer nature.
"Mom, you have a lot of jewelry, give it to me, I will exchange it for money. I don't want to die, I can't die, Mom, say something!" The more Xie Wenzhou spoke, the more fear appeared in his eyes.
Ma Xiuli suppressed her despair and wiped away her tears. Yes, her son could not die. Qiao Meijing's daughter was alive and well now. Why should her son die?
"You stay in the study and don't go anywhere. I will find a way to get you more money. Be good. The servants at home will not enter the study. Your father is recuperating in his room now and usually does not come to the study. I will bring you some food later." Ma Xiuli calmed down and weighed the pros and cons, and decided to send her son abroad first.
After leaving the study, Ma Xiuli began to pack up some jewelry that could be exchanged for money. Her eldest daughter-in-law had been in the hospital taking care of her eldest grandson these days.
At her eldest daughter-in-law's place, Ma Xiuli took out several expensive pieces of jewelry. There was also a lot of cash for daily pocket money in the drawer, which Ma Xiuli packed all into a luggage bag.
He also took a lot of jade jewelry from her. The old man's property was mostly real estate, calligraphy and paintings that were difficult to sell. He was the only one who knew the password to the old man's safe.
While lying on the bed resting, he heard footsteps coming in and out. He looked up at Ma Xiuli's furtive look and felt suspicious.
After having a full meal in the study, Xie Wenzhou opened his luggage bag and took a look through it. His mother still loved him, and the things she gave him were worth a lot of money.
"Son! You have to be safe. Things are different abroad than at home. Be frugal with these things. Once you've settled down, send me an email to let me know you're safe. Don't make me worry."
Xie Wenzhou nodded with red eyes, "Mom, I will be fine, you have to take care of yourself..."
The slam of the study door interrupted Xie Wenzhou's words. Looking at Xie Dejun's angry face, Xie Wenzhou was frightened. "Dad, I'm back. Don't worry, I won't bring trouble to my family. I'll leave right away."
"Go, can you? There are wanted posters everywhere, and there are electronic cameras on every street. Where can you run to? Instead of living in secret, it's better to turn yourself in and hope for leniency."
Xie Wenzhou looked at his father in disbelief. "Dad, are you talking like a human being? If I surrender, I will definitely die. It's a death sentence anyway. Why shouldn't I run away? Are you qualified to talk to me about the law now?"
Xie Dejun covered his heart and glared at Xie Wenzhou, "You beast, is this how you talk to your own father?"
Xie Wenzhou had lost all his rationality. He pointed at himself and cursed, "I am a beast, and you are an old beast. You haven't even wiped the shit off your own ass, so what right do you have to teach me? I am a murderer, and so are you. I killed my enemy, and you killed my benefactor. You are even more worthless than me!"
"You're talking nonsense..." Xie Dejun slapped Xie Wenzhou hard in the face.
Xie Wenzhou glared at Xie Dejun with resentment, picked up the bag on the ground and rushed out.
Ma Xiuli ignored Xie Dejun who was almost unable to stand and ran out of the study after her son.
"Son, don't be impulsive. If you rush out like this, the police will arrest you directly! I will ask the driver to take me to the hospital to see Pingwei. You hide in the trunk..." Ma Xiuli arranged everything, carried the soup prepared in the kitchen, and drove towards the hospital.
Because Ma Xiuli went to the hospital to bring soup to her grandson almost every other day, the police guarding the various intersections did not pay much attention to her.
