Fated to My Billionaire Husband

Chapter 2029: Chapter 2029: I Can’t Let You Face This Alone

Li Mingxi was just about to say that her life was priceless, when Xiao Lang pulled her aside and gestured for her to be quiet.

Following his gaze, it seemed someone had just walked past outside.

”Is someone really eavesdropping?” she asked in a low voice.

Xiao Lang nodded with a smile, ”Yes, and it’s someone who understands Spanish.”

Li Mingxi suddenly realized that people from the Green Snake Gang must have thought they didn’t know someone among them understood Spanish.

She and Xiao Lang pretended to converse in Spanish, seemingly guarding against them, but in fact, they were saying it on purpose so they would think what they said was true.

However...

”How did you know there was someone who could understand?”

”When they caught me, one of them spoke with an accent from a certain region in Spain, very thick accent too, so he must have grown up there.”

Li Mingxi chuckled, ”You can even tell by the accent?”

”I happened to have lived there for a while, so I’m quite familiar.”

”Is there no one eavesdropping now?”

”No.” His hearing was quite good, so he knew no one was outside.

Li Mingxi continued asking, ”So what’s your plan? Can you tell me now?”

Xiao Lang pointed at his foot, ”Actually, the plan was for me to come with the tracker to find you guys, but it’s been implanted in the sole of my foot.”

Li Mingxi quickly squatted down, had him take off his shoe, and then lifted his foot.

Sure enough, there was a large black mole on the sole of his foot.

But the mole was fake, just to throw people off.

”Does it hurt?” Li Mingxi looked up and asked, knowing that the sole of the foot was an important area, walking must hurt.

Xiao Lang shook his head with a slight smile, ”Don’t worry, that spot’s okay, my foot is deep enough that it doesn’t touch the ground when I walk.”

Indeed, Li Mingxi, being a doctor, knew he really wasn’t in much pain, so she wasn’t very worried.

Xiao Lang pulled her up to sit beside him, ”Don’t worry, this place has already been exposed. They’ll figure out a way to rescue us, we can probably escape tomorrow. By the way, where are the others?”

”They’re locked up in another cabin.”

”Nobody’s hurt, right?”

Li Mingxi shook her head, ”No. Except one got bitten by a snake, but he’s fine now.”

”It’s good no one’s hurt. These people were too bold this time, deceived Ruan Tianling, I’m sure Ruan Tianling won’t let it go easily.”

Li Mingxi understood his meaning, Ruan Tianling might just eliminate the Green Snake Gang.

She laughed coldly, ”Whether they live or die has nothing to do with us, besides, they do deserve it!”

Xiao Lang looked at her without saying a word.

Li Mingxi raised an eyebrow, ”What, do you think I’m too vicious?!”

”No, I like how clearly you distinguish between love and hate,” Xiao Lang said softly.

Being looked at like that by him, Li Mingxi’s eyes felt a bit uneasy.

She stared at him and asked, ”Why did the people who brought you in say we’re a couple?”

She had wanted to ask this question for a while.

Xiao Lang didn’t avoid the question, instead, he directly answered, ”I told them you were my wife, so they would believe I really intended to replace you. Actually, I did want to replace you, if they’d agree to let you go. But they didn’t agree, and I had to come, I couldn’t leave you here alone.”

Li Mingxi was stunned, her heart beat a little faster.

Did he get caught on purpose, for her?

She tried to smile, ”I’m not alone, Awei and the others are all here...”
