Where are they?
"I clearly saw her move this way, where did she go now?"
The noise outside continued, and Qiao Wanyue hid in the space, not daring to show her face. She had just thrown the stone into the water, which might have misled these people, but it might not. She couldn't go out for the time being.
These people are clearly targeting her.
Who exactly is it?
Those who fear her?
Or perhaps they are enemies.
She could count the number of people she had enemies on her fingers: Gao Yan's mother, Qiao Shanshan, the Yang family, and she couldn't think of anyone else for the time being.
She hid in the space for a long time, but couldn't get out anytime soon, so she simply took a nap in the space. When Qiao Wanyue woke up at dawn, she found that no one was outside.
She carefully observed that no one was around before coming out of the space. Just as she was about to walk towards home, several people suddenly appeared around her, circling around her.
Qiao Wanyue frowned.
These people came prepared.
"I told you she was hiding."
"No wonder he's the youngest NPC deputy, he's so patient."
"The brothers have been waiting for you for a long time." The leader looked at Qiao Wanyue with a sinister gaze.
I was careless.
She can't just disappear into thin air now, or her secret will be exposed.
My secret is more important than facing these people.
She straightened up. "Who are you? Even if you die, you should die knowing why."
The leader said, "Director Qiao doesn't remember anyone he's offended, but the person who hates you is hoping for your death day and night. You killed her son, do you think she'll let you go?"
"I can give you double whatever they pay you." Qiao Wanyue observed the surrounding terrain. This place was relatively open and uninhabited. She only needed ten minutes to reach a place where people gathered.
But the enemy outnumbers us.
At this point, we can only use strategy, not recklessness.
“We know that Director Qiao is not short of money, but we are not in it for the money, we just want her to vent her anger.”
Qiao Wanyue laughed and said, "You all know that I am Director Qiao, the pride of Lin County. You have waited for me for a whole day and night, so you should know what I did yesterday. Do you think that if anything happened to me, the country and the county would let your families off the hook? If you let me go now, I will not say that I have seen you. My grudge with Gao Yan has nothing to do with you."
Her words were sincere.
But the person opposite was unmoved. He waved his hand, narrowing the encirclement and surrounding Qiao Wanyue.
Qiao Wanyue bit her lip, forcing herself to calm down. She had a way to escape, but if she didn't let her secret be discovered, then these people wouldn't have to live either. With so many people dead, she could bury the bodies quietly.
It's still best not to do something so dangerous when necessary.
As the encirclement tightened, she realized that the men were carrying handguns. Her heart sank to the bottom. Luckily, she hadn't acted rashly. This wasn't a gang; it was a criminal organization.
Qiao Wanyue's face darkened.
"Director Qiao, listen to me, and you will die peacefully, otherwise..." The man smiled sinisterly.
Qiao Wanyue felt a gun pressed against her back, forcing her to walk down a path. There she discovered a small wooden house at the end of the path, and inside stood a woman—Tian Mengnan.
She was kicked inside.
She stumbled inside, barely managing to stay upright before falling.
She saw Qiao Wanyue smile with satisfaction. "Qiao Wanyue, you've finally met your match."
Tian Mengnan became as thin as a bamboo pole, looking like a demon that had escaped from hell.
"I am where I am today because of you, but you are where you are today not because of me." Qiao Wanyue looked at Tian Mengnan quietly. She felt sorry for Tian Mengnan. Gao Yan's father divorced her last year, and it was said that he had disappeared.
