The Ace Bigshot Becomes A Farmgirl

Chapter 1646: Chapter 1646: Never Forgive for a Lifetime

Once the sound of the secret passage closing came through, someone inside the chamber noticed and immediately let out a gasp.

Uncle Meng’s expression changed; he instructed the others to stay inside the chamber and by no means reveal themselves, while he went out to bring Ms. Tao and Tao Qin back.

But by the time he went out, Ms. Tao and Tao Qin had already gone far.

Luckily, Jiang Kuanyu had already returned to the front yard by this time, so he hadn’t seen that the entrance to the secret chamber was inside the woodshed.

When Uncle Meng chased to the front yard, he happened to see Tao Qin running towards Jiang Kuanyu.

He immediately wanted to stop her, but who would’ve thought Ms. Tao would turn her head to block him, even accusing him of being selfish and indifferent, leaving them for dead.

Uncle Meng was infuriated, directly pushing Ms. Tao aside.

Jiang Kuanyu saw Uncle Meng’s actions and knew he must have realized he was faking, otherwise, based on their past acquaintance, Uncle Meng wouldn’t stop his wife from saving him.

He no longer pretended, letting out a whistle, and instantly three or four people appeared in the courtyard, surrounding Uncle Meng tightly.

Ms. Tao and Tao Qin were dumbfounded, as those people charged at Uncle Meng and even struck Ms. Tao and Tao Qin with a knife.

Uncle Meng’s face turned extremely grim at the sight. He wanted to protect them but was unable to be in two places at once, so he could only fight while retreating towards the doorway.

Ms. Tao and Tao Qin were not seriously injured, they huddled together trembling, watching helplessly as the fight moved out of the escort agency.

Inside the secret chamber, Meng Pei had been monitoring the situation outside, and upon hearing the sounds of fighting, rushed out without a second thought.

The other escorts also wanted to follow him out, and Meng Pei took three or four with him.

Then he said to Meng Qi, who also wanted to join, ”There’s something strange about Jiang Kuanyu’s arrival. Generally, mountain bandits don’t show up at the escort agency in broad daylight. Something odd is going on here. Take care of everyone, and do not come out.”

Meng Qi, helpless, could only retreat, and Meng Pei went after them.

However, the front yard was left with only the injured Ms. Tao and Tao Qin; Uncle Meng was nowhere to be seen.

Ms. Tao and Tao Qin merely said that the others fought and left, so Meng Pei and several escorts immediately went out to search.

At this time, patrolling officers on the street heard the commotion and came running over, joining the chase.

However, by evening, Uncle Gao and other escorts returned, but Meng Pei and Uncle Meng were still missing.

Uncle Gao said that after they gave chase, they lost sight of the suspects and had to split up in their search.

But none of them found anything, so they returned first.

So now, both Meng Pei and Uncle Meng have been missing for two days and a night.

Shu Yu’s expression was heavy as he raised his eyes to look towards the corner at Ms. Tao and Tao Qin, who were huddled together.

The two faces were very pale, and earlier Meng Han mentioned they had both been injured, but bandaged already.

Only Tao Qin’s hands and feet were tied, her hair disheveled, leaning in the corner, too afraid to speak.

Surprisingly, Ms. Tao, who usually took great care of Tao Qin, although also in that corner, deliberately distanced herself from her, avoiding much contact.

Shu Yu was puzzled. Meng Han said awkwardly, ”At that time, they were in great danger in the front yard. Several men were besieging my father, and a mountain bandit was about to attack my mother and Tao Qin. But Tao Qin directly pushed my mother, using her as a shield. My father got cut on the back trying to save my mother.”

As she spoke, tears began to flow again, ”I’m so scared something will happen to my father. If, if anything happens to him, I’ll never forgive them in my lifetime.”

Her eyes reddened as she glared at Ms. Tao and Tao Qin. Ms. Tao opened her mouth, wanting to say something to Meng Han, but the latter turned her face away, having no desire to converse with her.
