The Magnificent Son-in-law
Chapter 1441 - 1441: That Makes Things Easier
Calmly analyze the situation, Xiao Feng believes the immediate issue to determine is: Will Tang Yunshu hijack the car?
If so, then he needs to "do something."
If not, he would end up busy for nothing and might even invite more troubles...
After pondering this for a while, Xiao Feng has an answer in his mind.
The answer is: Yes!
Because based on Tang Yunshu's fear of death... ahem, I mean cautious personality and meticulous style.
She would never let all her subordinates get detained by the Demon Suppression Action Team!
He glanced at the scene outside the window and recalculated the time.
Xiao Feng concluded that there's about three to four kilometers left to the Demon Suppression Action Team's base camp.
However, he knew he couldn't really budget for just three to four kilometers.
The reason is simple — Xiao Feng knows there's a "hidden post" near the Demon Suppression Action Team's base camp.
This was something he accidentally discovered when being chased by Xue Nuofu's hornets back then.
Of course, what Xiao Feng knows is also very limited; the hidden posts' range, quantity, and location are all unknown to him.
"Why are you so impatient?" sitting opposite, Li Ying suddenly asked.
"Impatient?" Xiao Feng slightly frowned, "Am I?"
Li Ying pondered for a moment, then said, "Actually, I've always wanted to tell you..."
Saying this, her words paused, revealing a visible expression of struggle between her brows, as if hesitating whether to continue speaking.
At this moment, Xiao Feng's face was calm, but his heart was in a panic!
This conversation, why does it seem like a confession?
Though Li Ying isn't unattractive, personality-wise, they truly don't match at all...
After a while, it seemed like Li Ying made a decision, opening her mouth to say: "Regarding your changes recently..."
"Stop!" Xiao Feng hurriedly interrupted, "Judging by the time you paused just now, you were definitely hesitating whether you should say what's next.
Usually, for things you're unsure about whether to say, the best choice is not to say them aloud.
Otherwise, speaking out impulsively often leads to regret later.
Do you understand what I mean?"
After saying this, Xiao Feng blinked his eyes.
To him, his stance had been clearly expressed.
Li Ying, with her intellect, should be able to grasp the meaning.
Yet, even so, Xiao Feng didn't dare to bet on it a hundred percent.
The human heart is the hardest to fathom, let alone the fact that the other side is a woman.
As the saying goes, a woman's heart is a needle at the bottom of the sea.
Trying to guess it... hard!
Sure enough, he heard Li Ying say, "I didn't understand what you meant, but what needs to be said should be said."
Xiao Feng was about to interrupt, make a joke, and find a way to quickly turn the page on this.
Just then, he heard a "bang," the vehicle suddenly braked sharply, causing the rear wheels to skid and the trunk to shake violently.
Since she wasn't holding onto the bars above, Li Ying lost her balance and directly collided into Xiao Feng opposite her.
Xiao Feng's face darkened; if he hadn't spoken to Tang Yunshu beforehand, he would have suspected the driver in front of intentionally "assisting."
Nonetheless, despite his speechlessness, his reaction was not slow at all.
He used force in his arm holding the bar, shifting to the side.
"Dang!"
A crisp sound, Li Ying firmly hit the compartment.
"Hiss..." Intense pain made her gasp as she clutched her forehead and turned to look at Xiao Feng beside her: "You!"
"Sorry, my hand slipped just now." Xiao Feng apologized with a smile.
As the vehicle steadied, Li Ying removed her hand from her forehead and looked at her palm, finding it covered in blood. A strong dizziness immediately hit her.
She shook her head strongly, trying to stay awake, but it felt like she was drunk, with her consciousness uncontrollable.
"Are you okay?" Xiao Feng released the bar, supporting Li Ying by her shoulders.
However, Li Ying's legs gave way, eyes closed, and she collapsed into Xiao Feng's arms.
Looking at the woman in his arms, Xiao Feng couldn't help but find it amusing.
Originally, he was contemplating whether to find a suitable opportunity to knock her out after Tang Yunshu arrived.
Now, it's convenient, she knocked herself out...
Placing Lu Lishuang in the wedge behind the car door, Xiao Feng pulled out a porcelain bottle containing trauma medicine from his chest, pouring some powder onto her injured area.
After doing this, he looked at the Devil's Concentration Camp members, scattered on the ground, reached out to open the car door, and leaped out.
As soon as he got off the car, he saw Gong Kaishan hurrying toward the back of the vehicle.
Xiao Feng asked first, "What happened?"
"A tree suddenly fell."
Gong Kaishan pointed to the large tree lying in front of the vehicle and said, "The tree fell strangely; it didn't fall earlier or later, but rather at this specific moment. There's certainly something fishy here!"
After saying this, he pulled out a gun from his waist and handed it to Xiao Feng, solemnly reminding, "Brother Xiao Feng, I know you're capable, but you must not be careless.
By the way, wasn't Li Ying in the car with you?
Where is she?"
"See for yourself." Xiao Feng said with a rather annoyed tone.
Gong Kaishan didn't quite understand Xiao Feng's meaning, but he still stuck his head into the back compartment and found Li Ying, head injured and already unconscious, prompting his immediate bewilderment:
"How is this possible?!"
"Who are you asking!" Xiao Feng said irritably: "That question you should ask the one who hit the brakes."
Meanwhile, someone shouted loudly: "Three people come and move this tree away; everyone else stay alert. If you see anything suspicious, shoot directly!"
The latter part of the speech was clearly a warning, causing any potential hidden ambushers to be wary and not act rashly.
In truth, in the eyes of the Demon Suppression Action Team members, tonight had already been a big victory, yielding considerable bounty!
Right now, nothing was more pressing than sending the captives back to the base camp.
"I'll go help." With those words, Gong Kaishan took the lead, heading towards the big tree lying not far in front of the car.
Xiao Feng surveyed the surroundings, his eyes like searchlights, seeking any suspicious figures nearby.
Unfortunately, with the light too dim and dense forests on both sides, identifying Tang Yunshu's hiding spot through observation was nearly impossible.
But at that moment, an armed figure quietly approached Xiao Feng, whispering, "Which car is the grey rat in?"
Surprise flickered in Xiao Feng's eyes.
Not surprised that Tang Yunshu could handle acquiring a full uniform of the Demon Suppression Action Team's core members, but unexpected that, given her cautiousness, she would dare to take such a risky move.
Doing this is essentially like a sheep donning a wolf's skin and mixing into the wolf pack.
Once she reveals a flaw, she's seconds away from the netherworld.
