352 Can’t Let Ao Jie Go
When Qiao Yanhui looked at Ao Jie at this moment, he recalled his annoying demeanor when he was young. He had really been beaten up too many times because of Ao Jie.
Looking at Qiao Yanhui’s affirmative expression, Xu Qing knew that the person in front of her was still Ao Jie, but he was Ao Jie’s third personality. For the time being, she would call him Ao Jie No. 3. Xu Qing wasn’t sure who appeared first, but she differentiated them according to the time she met them. The person who helped her out the first time they met was called Ao Jie No. 1, the older brother who doted on Qiao Yanhui. On the other hand, the person who called Qiao Yanhui his older brother and was possessive of Qiao Yanhui was Ao Jie No. 2.
“Dear Father, don’t worry. I will definitely avenge you, and you should give up your throne obediently.” Ao Jie squatted in front of Ao Heng. He wanted to laugh, but as he laughed, tears flowed. He didn’t understand why he was crying. He should be happy, but he also felt sad.
“You…” Ao Heng grabbed Ao Jie’s hand unwillingly and wanted to use all his strength to stand up. He wasn’t dead yet…
“Father, you should rest assured. I will fulfill your wish.” As he spoke, Ao Jie slapped Ao Heng’s hand away, then Ao Heng fell to the ground.
Ao Heng felt dizzy, and his hands were trying to grab something. “Lin Shu… you…” Before he could finish speaking, his hands fell limply and he died.
Ao Jie stood up and looked ahead indifferently, his eyes filled with sorrow.
“Little Hui, catch him,” Xu Qing said coldly. Ao Jie No. 3 had appeared so mysteriously, so she needed to confirm something. It seemed that the truth was about to be unraveled soon.
When Qiao Yanhui heard this, he rushed towards Ao Jie. Ao Jie sneered as he said, “Brother, you won’t be able to catch me.”
Qiao Yanhui’s expression didn’t change at all. He only wanted to catch Ao Jie and figure out what was happening. Just as Qiao Yanhui was about to catch Ao Jie, Ao Jie suddenly jumped down the mountaintop at a speed that was so fast that no one could react to. When had Ao Jie’s martial arts skills and internal energy become so powerful?
Qiao Yanhui didn’t have time to dwell on it. He subconsciously tried to grab Ao Jie with his bare hands, but he only brushed against Ao Jie’s sleeve and watched helplessly as he left.
“Haha…” Ao Jie laughed out loud. How could he let Qiao Yanhui catch him? He still had to return to the palace to become the emperor and tell the world that Qiao Yanhui had killed his father for the sake of the throne! However, he wasn’t smug for long…
This was because Ji Jing had used all his strength to jump down and successfully catch Ao Jie. At this moment, he couldn’t care less about what would happen to him. There was only one thought in his mind: stall Ao Jie until Qiao Yanhui arrived.
“Let go!” Ao Jie kicked Ji Jing, but Ji Jing still held onto Ao Jie tightly and refused to let go. This man was related to Qiao Jiqing’s child, so how could he let him go?
“Alright!” Ao Jie sneered. After he took out his dagger, he used all his strength to pierce through Ji Jing’s arm and blood flowed down.
However, Ji Jing only winced and didn’t let go.
Ao Jie gritted his teeth in hatred. If this continued, Qiao Yanhui would arrive. He dug out his dagger to dig out Ji Jing’s bones. He didn’t believe that this man could tolerate that sort of pain.
At this moment, Qiao Yanhui finally rushed over and kicked Ao Jie before catching him.
Xu Qing also arrived. Seeing that Ji Jing’s hand was already dyed red with blood and that the wound was so deep that the bones were visible, she hurriedly bandaged Ji Jing’s wound. After bandaging Ji Jing’s wound, Xu Qing walked towards Ao Jie. Ao Jie was already tied up by Qiao Yanhui and his mouth was covered, so he could only glare at Xu Qing with a ferocious expression.
Ao Jie was inexplicably afraid of Xu Qing, because in front of Xu Qing, he felt as if he was completely exposed.
Before Xu Qing and Ao Jie could say anything, Qiao Yanhui slapped Ao Jie’s face.
Ao Jie looked at Qiao Yanhui in disbelief. He was agitated, but his mouth was covered and he could only make muffled sounds.
However, even though they couldn’t hear him clearly, they could tell what Ao Jie meant from his expression. He was probably asking, “What right do you have to hit me?!”
“You glared at my wife and hurt my uncle, so I kicked you and slapped you. This is already very light punishment,” Qiao Yanhui said calmly.
Ao Jie was so angry that his face was distorted. He was the dignified crown prince!
Xu Qing smiled at Ao Jie, her meaning obvious. “I dare you to continue glaring at me.”
