Before Cheng Haoyu could speak, Brother Mao had already brought people back.
Cheng Haoyu called out loudly to his back: "Brother Mao, thank you."
Brother Mao made a thank you gesture to him without even turning his head.
Cheng Haoyu's sharp gaze fell on the bound Xiao Ji. He walked over slowly, raised his hand to lift his chin, and said sharply, "Are you Xiao Ji?"
Xiao Ji had a confused look on his face with a hint of panic. He stammered and used his eyes to indicate that his mouth was blocked and he couldn't speak.
Suddenly, Cheng Haoyu grabbed his neck with his hands, getting closer and closer. Xiao Ji's veins were bulging and his facial expression was extremely painful.
The soldiers standing guard at the entrance looked at each other and panicked: "What should we do? It looks like Captain Cheng is going to strangle him to death."
"You wait here, I'll go find my sister-in-law." Another soldier said on a whim, but before she could move, she saw Zheng Xinyi running towards her, panting.
"Sister-in-law, please go over and take a look! Captain Cheng is going to kill someone." The soldier on guard called out.
"Haoyu, what are you doing?" Zheng Xinyi heard Wang Ye say that someone was looking for Cheng Haoyu at the army gate, so she ran over to check. Just as she expected, she said, "Haoyu, let go, let go."
Zheng Xinyi appeared in time to stop the attack and saved Xiao Ji's life. The moment Cheng Haoyu let go, Xiao Ji felt a special flowing breath entering his body, which made him feel very comfortable. He lay on the ground and relaxed for a long time before he came to his senses.
"Haoyu, what are you doing? Many things have not been clarified yet. If you strangle him to death now, how are we going to explain to Uncle San and Xinxin and the others?" Zheng Xinyi pushed him aside and persuaded him.
Cheng Haoyu was so angry that he closed his eyes gently: "Whenever I think of Xinxin and that poor child, I am furious with this beast."
Yes, Cheng Haoyu hated such scumbags the most in his life, especially since he had hurt Xinxin so badly. Such men should not be alive at all.
While they were chatting, Xiao Ji, who was lying on the ground, secretly picked up a hard stone from the ground, then looked at them with his eyes and rubbed the rope in his hand on the stone. Finally, the rope broke, and Xiao Ji suddenly stood up and ran away.
But there was no way he could escape Cheng Haoyu's clutches. Before he could run a few steps, he was caught by Cheng Haoyu. Then he slapped him in the face: "You're still trying to escape?"
"Brother, I don't know how I offended you?" Xiao Ji asked with his hands clasped together.
Zheng Xinyi widened her eyes and was about to step forward to explain the situation, but before she could open her mouth, Xiao Ji suddenly took out a dagger from his underwear and ran straight towards Zheng Xinyi.
Cheng Haoyu reacted rationally and kicked back, hitting the hand holding the knife, followed by the sound of the knife falling to the ground.
"Xinyi, are you okay?" Cheng Haoyu held her shoulders and looked her up and down.
"I'm fine." Zheng Xinyi shook her head in response.
Looking around, Xiao Ji tried to pick up the dagger on the ground again, but in the blink of an eye, the dagger was stepped on by Cheng Haoyu.
The soldiers on guard looked at each other and asked with concern: "Captain Cheng, do you need us to take action?"
"No need, this is my family affair, I can handle it alone." Cheng Haoyu's sharp eyes fell on Xiao Ji.
Xiao Ji knew that he was good at reaching out and that he was no match for him, so he sighed softly: "Brother, I surrender, but I, Xiao Ji, want to know exactly how I offended you."
"Xiao Ji, you are such a bastard. You hurt Zheng Xinxin so badly, and then disappeared without a trace. How can there be a scumbag like you in the world?" Zheng Xinyi roared.
