Chapter 290: Chapter 290: Qiao Xi’s Counterattack

Huo Xingzhou raised his hand and tapped on the Bluetooth headset at his ear, his calm voice sounding, "Hello."

On the other end of the call, Huo Beiting sneered, "Huo Xingzhou, you didn’t expect me to come back, did you?"

Huo Xingzhou spoke indifferently, "I didn’t expect you’d come back just to seek death. Have you been living too comfortably abroad?"

Huo Beiting had been driven out of the country by the Huo Family, but he had a worry-free life overseas.

As long as he stayed honest and unassuming, he could live happily ever after.

Grinding his teeth, Huo Beiting said, "Aren’t you afraid that I will kill that country girl by provoking me?"

"Tell me what you want."

"What I want, you can give! Come to the Xinluo Highway!"

Huo Beiting hung up the phone.

Zhou Yu in the back seat, holding back his anger, said, "Only a fucking idiot would go to Xinluo Highway! It’s the opposite direction from Future City. Huo Beiting, that son of a bitch, wants to play us! Huo Er, speed up, if Qiao Xi falls into his hands..."

She definitely wouldn’t end up well!

It’s possible that Huo Beiting really intends to go down together in mutual destruction!

Zhou Yu sneaked a glance at the rearview mirror and noticed that Huo Xingzhou’s expression was very cold, suppressing a brutal rage.

"Don’t worry, Huo Er, Old Chen has already rushed ahead!"

...

Western Suburbs.

Ruins of Future City.

The other side had already been protected by the cultural relics bureau; this area was all dilapidated and rundown construction sites.

Huo Beiting drove a second-hand sports car down from the secluded highway exit and finally stopped on a gravel road, his cold gaze falling on the unconscious woman in the back seat.

If he was lucky this time, he would take down both husband and wife in one fell swoop and die together.

If he wasn’t lucky, then he would at least ensure a scapegoat.

Qiao Xi was a good choice, and it was time for Huo Xingzhou to taste the pain of forever losing a loved one.

Huo Beiting opened the door, the rain falling on him without him feeling it, and he stared at the back seat where Qiao Xi lay for a good while.

Finding that she hadn’t woken up, he sneered.

He had given her an anesthetic injection, then reached out his hand to drag Qiao Xi out of the car.

Qiao Xi’s legs were dragged on the ground, the gravel hurting her skin, and her clothes were covered in mud.

Her hand that hung by her side quietly curled up, grabbing a handful of sharp stones from the ground, all of them tightly clenched in her palm.

Huo Beiting threw her into an unfinished building, with rain drizzling outside.

With a heavy sound,

Qiao Xi’s head hit the ground.

She pretended to stir from her daze and saw Huo Beiting in front of her; she showed a look of terror.

This expression immensely pleased Huo Beiting!

Huo Beiting laughed viciously, "Little village girl, surprised to see me? Did you not think I would seek revenge when you and Huo Xingzhou conspired against me?"

If it weren’t for her, Huo Xingzhou would still be a cripple!

A cripple would only slowly die!

Maybe when Huo Xingzhou was dead, even Tianyuan Group would be his!

It was all Qiao Xi’s fault!

For a moment, Huo Beiting didn’t know whether he hated Qiao Xi or Huo Xingzhou more!

Huo Beiting closed in, "Don’t even think about escaping, injected with an anesthetic, do you feel weak all over? When Huo Xingzhou arrives, I’ll send you both on your way!"

Qiao Xi watched him warily with her almond-shaped eyes.

She recalled the way Xu Xingluo had acted weak and fragile, lying on the ground, she tried to show an expression of desolate and desperate isolation.

She tightly held the sharp stones in her palm, the pain helping her recover her senses more quickly.

Huo Beiting continued his victorious speech, "I remember the last time you were here, Zhuo Feng crippled your hands, and that old guy Cheng Han cured you. I won’t make the same mistake this time."

He said proudly, "I sent Huo Xingzhou off to the Xinluo Highway, he won’t find you anytime soon. According to Xu Xingluo, you always carry silver needles on you, good for striking unexpectedly."

He circled around Qiao Xi a few times, and said, "I’ve already cleared the needles from you, so just be a good fish on the chopping board."

Qiao Xi pursed her lips and looked at him.

Huo Beiting was irritated by such a gaze and opened his mouth, "Xu Xingluo wants me to send her a wedding present, and luckily, my phone camera is very clear. Imagine if the Young Madam of the Huo Family, the president’s wife of Tianyuan Group, got caught on a short video that went viral all over the internet.

Wouldn’t Huo Xingzhou lose all face?"

"Qiao Xi, I’ve wanted to do this for a long time! Let’s see how exactly your body captivated Huo Xingzhou’s heart."

Huo Beiting’s eyes grew more and more malicious.

Before Huo Xingzhou arrived, he would find ways to humiliate Qiao Xi. Even if she survived this place, she’d never be able to hold her head high again.

"The apprentice of the National Doctor Cheng Han, with her intimate videos flying all over the place, that must be quite interesting."

Qiao Xi did have a certain level of fame.

By doing these things, her reputation would be completely ruined.

It would ruin Qiao Xi for life!

"Qiao Xi, if you have to blame someone, blame yourself for insisting on marrying Huo Xingzhou. Before he arrives, I need to let off some steam."

Just collect a little interest first.

He closed in step by step, his expression ferocious.

Qiao Xi bit her lip, moving her body step by step backwards.

Huo Beiting laughed venomously, taking pleasure in his prey’s resistance.

Qiao Xi clenched the sharp stone in her hand, a cold light flashing in her eyes!

This is the right angle!

As Huo Beiting lunged at her in an attempt to tear off her clothes, Qiao Xi forcefully threw the pebble.

The stone hit Huo Beiting right in the eye socket, blood seeping out instantly!

"Ah!"

Huo Beiting screamed in pain, covering his eyes, contorted with agony!

Qiao Xi, gritting her teeth, fought against her weakening body and, with a flick of her wrist, sent another pebble flying, striking Huo Beiting’s leg.

Huo Beiting felt a pain in his leg and half-knelt on the ground.

Qiao Xi gritted her teeth and kicked him several times, her cold voice ringing out, "Who said I can’t fight back without silver needles?"

She grew up amongst a pile of medicinal herbs.

The effects of the anesthetic were weaker on her than on an average person.

Her Flying Needle Technique was not just about throwing needles, anything in her hands could be thrown—it was all about accuracy!

Lucky shot!

Qiao Xi looked down on him from above, "Huo Beiting, you haven’t made any progress! But I have!"

By Huo Xingzhou’s side, she had learned to fight back!

She had learned to burn her boats and to plan before making a move!

Huo Beiting roared in pain, "Bitch!"

"Who’s the bitch? It’s clearly you."

Qiao Xi picked up an abandoned red brick from the side and smashed it onto his back.

"Huo Beiting, you’re nothing but cheap skin and bones! You won’t even enjoy the luxuries you have, always scheming for what’s not yours!" Qiao Xi said, hitting him repeatedly, her back sweating with cold.

"You dare hit me, you bitch! I’ll... I’ll...

As Huo Beiting stood up to fight back, he was once again knocked down by a swing of Qiao Xi’s brick.

"Huo Beiting, do you think I am still the old Qiao Xi? Zhuo Feng kidnapped me under your urging. Do you think I haven’t grown at all?"

Qiao Xi said breathlessly, "Isn’t it better to stay abroad?"

Smack! Smack! Smack!

Qiao Xi smashed the brick down on his head several times.

"Country bumpkin! If you’re so capable, then don’t let me catch you!"

Stars flashed before Huo Beiting’s eyes as he clenched his teeth, grabbing her brick!

Qiao Xi let go, and Huo Beiting, moving forward with inertia, fell down again.

She ran unsteadily towards the outside.

Seeing the second-hand sports car parked at the edge of the abandoned construction site, she jumped into the driver’s seat, twisted the key, and clumsily drove off.

The sports car was much faster than a sedan.

By the time Huo Beiting staggered out, all he could see was a disappearing car.

That damned village girl!

Blood streamed down his face, his expression cold and menacing, like a death-seeking raksasa.

His sneer was chilling, "Village girl, do you really think you can escape? You were the one asking for it."

That car was the coffin he had prepared.

If he died, he’d become a Water Ghost and drag another down with him!

He knew Huo Xingzhou was clever; he might not compromise for a woman. Then, he’d drive with Qiao Xi to meet their doom.

But that village girl was seeking her own death!

Huo Beiting narrowed his eyes, the blood searing the corners of them, causing unending pain.

Huo Xingzhou, have you ever felt the agony of losing a loved one?
