Chapter 309 She was blinded.
Shen Jiheng immediately arranged for all those searching for Han Xi to head to the Shen family manor in the suburbs, determined to rescue Han Xi by any means necessary.
Han Xi is right. This kind of person will never know his mistakes; he has long been blinded by greed.
Rumble...
The noise from the helicopter woke Han Xi, who was fast asleep in the car. She opened her eyes groggily and found that her hands were tied behind her back and her feet were bound with tape, making it impossible for her to walk.
What happened? She received a call from Bo Siye on the way, saying that someone wanted to arrest her.
Before Han Xi could even ask what was going on, someone smashed her car window. She hurriedly opened the passenger door and ran out, but she was still caught.
"Have you brought everything? If we get caught, we're doomed."
The voice sounded so familiar. Han Xi turned her head and saw that it was Shen Mingzhu and her husband standing outside.
Could it be that she's trying to kidnap me? What exactly is this crazy woman up to?
She had already promised Shen Jiheng that she would let her off this time and not pursue the matter further; this person was courting death.
"Don't worry, everything has been checked and there are no problems. Shen Jiheng has driven my husband and me to the brink of despair, and this is the only way we can survive."
“My brother is really going too far. I didn’t even break that woman’s limbs, so why is he trying to kill us? Taking away all our privileges wasn’t enough; he even froze our accounts.”
“I can tolerate all of this, but how can he make my husband and me work on the construction site? You are a rich young lady, and you are pregnant. Isn’t he trying to force us to our deaths?”
It turns out that the punishments Shen Jiheng imposed on them in private were indeed more effective than other methods.
Shen Jiheng never expected that when he gave them a chance to repent and atone for their sins, they not only failed to appreciate it, but instead turned around and attacked Han Xi.
Shen Mingzhu said angrily, "We'll take this woman away, and then we can get a lot of money from her, as well as the Cloud Love she has, which will ensure they have no worries about food and clothing for the rest of their lives."
They wanted to kidnap her to threaten Shen Jiheng, and they also wanted to use her Cloud Love to make a profit. They said she was smart, but she was also incredibly foolish for doing such a stupid thing.
Zhou Yiming urged, "Quickly get Han Xi on the helicopter, before their people arrive."
Shen Mingzhu waved for her bodyguards to come and lift the person, but as soon as she opened the car door, Han Xi glared at her with all her might and kicked the bodyguard who opened the door to the ground.
Shen Mingzhu said in surprise, "I didn't expect you to wake up. Han Xi, you'd better behave yourself, or I'll have someone knock you out."
“Shen Mingzhu, I advise you to turn back before it’s too late. I’ve already promised your brother to let you off the hook. As long as you stop now, I’ll pretend nothing ever happened.”
Han Xi advised her to stop out of respect for Shen Jiheng, to avoid consequences she couldn't bear.
Shen Mingzhu sneered, "People die for money, birds die for food. Everything I do is for a better life in the future. He wants to punish me by making me go to the construction site to carry bricks. No way."
"He just wanted to temper your character. He forgave you for so many mistakes. Why didn't you see his good intentions?"
"Stop talking nonsense. No matter what, you have to come with us today."
Shen Mingzhu didn't want to waste words with her, so she had two bodyguards drag her out.
Han Xi was tied up and couldn't move her limbs properly. She was only able to attack her opponent by sneak attacking earlier. Now that her opponent was on guard, she was quickly dragged out.
Han Xi looked at her and shouted, "You'll regret this. You're wearing down Shen Jiheng's last bit of patience. I'm begging you, don't make any more mistakes."
Han Xi could sense that Shen Jiheng was in a low mood tonight, probably because he was troubled by letting Shen Mingzhu go.
He still harbored a last shred of familial affection and was unwilling to completely destroy them.
What Shen Mingzhu is doing now will completely erase all brotherly and sisterly affection from Shen Jiheng's heart.
Han Xi couldn't bear to make Shen Jiheng make such a difficult decision, so she begged her.
Shen Mingzhu burst into laughter: "What you're saying is ridiculous. Anyway, no matter what I do, my brother will forgive me in the end."
Han Xi shook his head: "No, you've made a huge mistake this time."
Shen Mingzhu slapped him and scolded, "Shut your mouth. If you talk nonsense again, don't blame me for being impolite and carrying you upstairs."
Han Xi tried to struggle but it was no use. Just as she was being carried to the stairwell, a piercing horn sounded behind her.
Shen Mingzhu, who was moving things, panicked when she heard this, and Zhou Yiming behind her shouted in alarm.
"Oh no, Shen Jiheng has come looking for us. We need to board the plane quickly."
Zhou Yiming pulled Shen Mingzhu toward the helicopter, not caring about anything else at the moment, and pushed past the bodyguards to climb the ladder.
Just as he was about to go inside, a bullet struck his thigh, causing him to fall to the ground in pain.
Because he was holding Shen Mingzhu's hand, he didn't let go when he fell, causing the two of them to fall at the same time.
Shen Jiheng rushed forward, kicked away the bodyguard who was grabbing Han Xi, and pulled him into his arms.
Qin Chuan and his team immediately set out and captured Zhou Yiming.
Shen Jiheng untied the ropes for Han Xi and tenderly held her shoulders to check her condition.
His eyes were filled with guilt, and he didn't even dare to look Han Xi in the eye during the examination.
She cupped his face in her eyes and looked into his gaze: "Shen Jiheng, look at me, I'm fine, don't worry."
Shen Jiheng looked up slightly and felt heartbroken when he saw the finger marks on her face. He couldn't bear to touch the woman he loved, so why did these people always challenge his bottom line and hurt Han Xi?
He stroked Han Xi's face with trembling hands and asked softly, "Does it hurt?"
He spoke softly so that Han Xi wouldn't notice anything amiss.
Han Xi shook her head: "It doesn't hurt. You came just in time. I was worried that they would take me away and I wouldn't be able to see you again."
Han Xi's words soothed Shen Jiheng's heart. He gently held the person in his arms, but then he heard a pointing voice behind him.
"Brother, how could you treat Yiming like this? He's your brother-in-law! Do you want to kill him?"
Shen Jiheng's anger, which had just subsided, immediately flared up again. He released Han Xi, turned around instantly, and walked straight towards Shen Mingzhu.
Seeing his angry expression, Han Xi was afraid something bad would happen and followed him, but Shen Jiheng gave Qin Chuan a look, stopping Han Xi.
"Ms. Han, you'd better not go over there. Let the president handle this matter himself."
“He’s capable of anything when he’s angry. We need to let him calm down before we deal with this. Let me through quickly; I don’t want him to wake up tomorrow and regret it.”
Han Xi knew he was angry at the moment, but didn't want him to make a decision then.
Shen Mingzhu looked at him with her head held high and still acted arrogantly, but inside she was extremely flustered.
She clutched her stomach and threatened, "What do you want? Shen Jiheng, let me warn you not to do anything reckless. I'm carrying your nephew. Are you going to bully his mother in front of everyone?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Shen Jiheng slapped her across the face, leaving Shen Mingzhu bewildered.
He then reached out and grabbed Shen Mingzhu by the neck, staring at her with an unprecedented hatred in his eyes, devoid of any emotion, which finally frightened Shen Mingzhu into begging for mercy.
"Brother, brother, let go! Let's talk this out."
At that moment, she finally realized that she couldn't use the child in her womb to gain sympathy.
