Chapter 528: He Can’t Run Away (2)

“He agreed.” Master Xiao said shamelessly.

“Really?” Duan Yanxing did not believe it.

“Ask him.”

At this moment, Xu Ling wished he was dead. He frantically suppressed his thoughts, hoping that he would not let his imagination run wild. However, the more he did so, the more things he was afraid of ran out of his mind. Without a doubt, Huo Jiuxiao had heard every single one of these thoughts.

Xu Ling was in despair. He closed his eyes and said, “It’s too late today.”

“Is that so?” Huo Jiuxiao turned around and asked Xu Ling,” Do you really think so?”

Xu Ling held back his trembling hands and finally admitted defeat.

“Actually, you know very well that I don’t have to get what’s in this safe, so my patience is limited.”

Duan Yanxing listened to their conversation and felt that he did not quite understand what they were saying. However, he could clearly feel that Xu Ling was very afraid of Huo Jiuxiao. It was a fear that came from the bottom of his heart.

“Let’s go.”

Under normal circumstances, the bank’s safe deposit box access service was only open to the person. Other than that, no one else had the right to take everything for Huo Shengyuan. However, when Huo Shengyuan rented the safe deposit box, he added a special note to the law. The safe deposit box was rented by him and Xu Ling together. Therefore, the safe deposit box was kept by both of them at the same time. According to the procedure, two people should be present to retrieve the items. However, Huo Shengyuan had arrangements with the bank in case of emergencies. In other words, Huo Shengyuan gave Xu Ling the authority to retrieve the items alone.

After Xu Ling calmed down, he took out his phone and called the bank manager to make an appointment. However, Huo Jiuxiao stopped him the moment he dialled the number. “I’ll pick it up tomorrow.”

“Isn’t it better to get it now?”

“Huo Shengyuan will be alerted. Tomorrow’s show won’t be good.” Master Xiao answered Duan Yanxing, “I’ll see him tonight and go with him tomorrow morning.”

“This kid is so cunning. Aren’t you afraid that he will run away?”

“Unless I take the initiative to release him, he won’t be able to escape.” Huo Jiuxiao reminded Xu Ling not to waste his efforts.

Xu Ling had never encountered such a situation before, so he did not dare to act rashly.

The group went to Xu Ling’s villa. He was the only one living there. Duan Yanxing and Yan Qiu did not have the habit of entering the house, so they waited outside Xu Ling’s villa. Huo Jiuxiao and Lin Wanli did not return to the Huo family’s residence as planned. They stayed in the car, and the car was parked under the trees around Xu Ling’s villa.

After Xu Ling returned home, he locked all the doors in the house and went to the basement. He was only ten meters away from digging and burying himself completely. He didn’t know why, but after being frightened by Huo Jiuxiao once, he had a psychological trauma. He felt as if there were people eavesdropping on his thoughts and stealing his thoughts. This feeling was too terrible. It left one with only fear and anxiety.

He didn’t even dare to organize his thoughts, let alone think of a solution. He felt as if his mind was placed on Huo Jiuxiao, and this emotion made him collapse.

So he turned on the projector in the basement and clicked on a movie. He wanted to use the movie to distract him, but unfortunately, the huge screen could not pull him back from the huge fear. In the end, he could only go crazy in the basement.

How could such a thing happen!

How could there be such a terrifying person!

Huo Shengyuan was actually fighting with such a person. How could he win? He was just being played around by others.

Duan Yanxing and Yan Qiu stood guard at the entrance of the villa, but they could still hear Xu Ling’s crazy movements from time to time. He started to wonder what Huo Jiuxiao had done to this man to make him look like he had gone crazy.

Could it be that Huo Jiuxiao had gone to practice some incredible martial arts behind his back again? How was he able to make people break down?

Xu Ling stayed quiet in his room for a few hours. Finally, he was able to think for himself. He took out his phone and wanted to contact Huo Shengyuan to see if there was still a chance to talk to him. However, within a minute of taking out his phone, he received a message from an unknown number.

“You’re testing the waters on the edge of danger again…”

When he saw this, Xu Ling threw his phone away. He was sweating all over.

At this point, he no longer had any other thoughts. He only wanted to escape far away from Jinzhou. He wanted to take his mother to Northern Europe, no, to the North Pole.

Not far away from the villa, Huo Jiuxiao knew that Xu Ling was basically crippled, so he got Yan Qiu to drive him and Lin Wanli back to the Huo residence. After all, there was still a big show tomorrow. If he didn’t return tonight, Yun Shujing and the others would definitely suspect that he had set up another shocking trap.

Although it was late to return home now, the butler had already prepared an itinerary for the two of them. Yun Shujing only thought that the two of them had gone to gamble.

Then, Huo Zizhen and Mu Qingya received different messages on their phones. The next day, Duan Yanxing and Xu Ling would go to the bank to get something. Someone would need to disturb Huo Shengyuan so that he would not receive any notification from the bank. Therefore, Mu Qingya’s task was especially important. She had to keep an eye on Huo Shengyuan’s phone.

Of course, if she didn’t have the confidence, she could just destroy Huo Shengyuan’s phone. That was the most foolproof way.

As for Huo Zizhen, she had to act according to the situation and check on Mu Qingya’s flaws at any time.

Tomorrow would be a big show.

Yun Shujing and Huo Qingxiao’s room on the first floor of the Huo residence was still lit. “The youngest bodyguard in our family,” Yun Shujing asked Huo Qingxiao before she went to bed. “He looks quite handsome. Send him to me tomorrow.”

“He’s in charge of the security system tomorrow,” Huo Qingxiao answered as he took off his watch. “You’re free to arrange Zizhen’s wedding.”
