Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Xia He could hold her liquor very well. During the time they spent in Country M, she negotiated most of the deals on the farm. The people there were all very good drinkers and yet Xia He could easily drink two people under the table by herself. How could Xia He get overly drunk at such a small wedding banquet?
Qiao Mei immediately drove to the banquet venue. There, she observed the surrounding area carefully. It was located in a dead end. If she wanted to go out, she could only go back the way she came, which was the road entrance on the left. There was a convenience store over there. Perhaps the owner of the convenience store had seen Xia He.
She went to the convenience store and asked, “Boss! Have you seen the woman in this photo and if so, where did you see her?”
“Her? Let me try to recall ” The boss took the photo and tried to think back carefully. Suddenly, he thought of something and said, “I remember her! She’s a very beautiful woman! That’s why I took more than a few glances at her. I think she had walked out of that door in a daze. Then she got into a small car and the male driver drove off.”
Qiao Mei was shocked. Xia He must have been drugged. How dare this person abduct Xia He so brazenly in broad daylight. Whoever it was had no respect for the Xia family!
“Qian’e, get Chi Ze and the rest of the guys to surround this place. No one is allowed to leave. Then get Mao Hang to go to the police station to look for Zou Ming. Zou Ming will know what to do,” Qiao Mei said with a dark expression.
Mo Zhu had just given birth and could not get agitated. Xia Wen had to stay by Mo Zhu’s side, so Qiao Mei must settle this matter herself.
Qiao Mei looked at the grass growing around the alley. Although the energy level of such grass was very low, it was still enough for her to figure out the exact direction that Xia He had left.
There were only a few guest houses and hotels in the south side of the city. If she sent people to check each one right away, they would definitely be able to find Xia He. She immediately asked Da Zhuang and Xiao Zhuang to bring a team of men with them to do a search. It did not take long for her to receive an update, but what she heard was a little unsettling.
“Sister Qiao Mei, we have found Sister Xia He, but but the situation is not too good ” Xiao Zhuang seemed to find it difficult to say what he wanted to say.
“What’s wrong?” Qiao Mei asked.
“The person who brought Sister Xia He into the hotel is Song Dan. Someone witnessed Song Dan carrying the unconscious Xia He into the hotel. When we arrived at the scene, Song Dan was was Sigh! Anyway, we’ve already subdued Song Dan!” Xiao Zhuang said.
Qiao Mei immediately understood what Xiao Zhuang meant. She quickly drove to the hotel where Xia He was found. In the corridor, Da Zhuang and Song Dan were fighting it out and the two of them were evenly matched.
Qiao Mei did not have time to help Da Zhuang out. She rushed straight into the room and the scene in front of her made her heart ache. Xia He was lying motionlessly on the bed, her clothes torn and her entire shoulder exposed. Tears were welling up in the corners of Xia He’s eyes.
Qiao Mei immediately took off her coat and put it over Xia He. She said softly, “Elder Sister, I’m here I’m here to save you I’ll bring you out immediately!”
Xia He was already more awake by now. She could open her eyes, but she could not speak. The moment she saw Qiao Mei, all the grievances in her heart overwhelmed her and her tears flowed uncontrollably.
Qiao Mei’s heart ached even more when she saw Xia He like this. Xia He was usually such a proud person. How could she stand Song Dan doing such a thing to her! Song Dan was such a beast!
Even with the downfall of the Du family and the decline of the Huang family, he still dared to do such an outrageous thing! Qiao Mei would not let him off and would definitely make him pay a bloody price for what he did!
Qiao Mei covered Xia He’s eyes and took a closer look to see if there were any injuries on Xia He’s body. Fortunately, only her clothes were torn. Before Song Dan could succeed in doing anything, Da Zhuang and the rest had already stopped him.
There were many people standing in the corridor by now. If they went out like this, those people would definitely gossip about them! Qiao Mei looked into Xia He’s eyes and said, “Elder Sister, I’m going to feed you some medicine. You will feel a little bit of pain, but don’t worry, it won’t endanger your life. Then I’ll take you away from here, is that alright?”
Xia He blinked forcefully. She believed that Qiao Mei would not harm her and she just wanted to leave this place as soon as possible.
Qiao Mei fed Xia He a bottle of black liquid. This was “poison” that she had developed. Ever since she discovered that she could extract ginseng juice, she had been doing experiments on other herbs. She had already successfully developed six types of poisons and the corresponding antidotes.
