After hanging up the phone, Tang Xiaowei walked out of the phone booth and prepared to stand by the side and wait for Tao Yuyan's arrival.
However, the owner of the phone booth saw her pitiful expression. The owner was an old lady who was almost 60 years old. She waved for Tang Xiaowei to sit next to her. She was watching TV, and Tang Xiaowei saw that the other party was sincerely asking her to go over She walked over and started chatting with the old lady.
Very soon, the old lady and she were chatting happily.
When the old lady was preparing to eat dinner, she saw that Tang Xiaowei's friend had not arrived yet, so she said that she could have the instant noodles in the shop first and pay for it when her friend arrived.
After thanking the old lady, Tang Xiaowei did not eat her instant noodles because she was afraid that Tao Yuyan might not be able to come.
At that moment, she heard the sound of many cars coming together from the highway beside her. The sound of horns and tires scraping against the ground was very ear-piercing, which showed that this group of people were very arrogant.
Tang Xiaowei subconsciously looked up and saw the license plate of the car in front of her. It looked familiar. It was obviously Huangfu Qiye's Maybach.
She was so scared that her face turned pale. She immediately squatted on the ground and let the boxes of drinks in front of her cover her body.
The man in the car and his men did not notice her and did not look over. Tang Xiaowei saw that they were about to go over and was about to heave a sigh of relief when her shoulder was suddenly knocked by someone.
She was so frightened that she almost fell to the ground. Tang Xiaowei turned around to look, only to find that it was the owner of the phone booth The old lady was looking at her worriedly. "Young lady, aren't you hungry? I told you to eat instant noodles, but you didn't eat it. It's all new over there. You can take a bucket and eat it."
Tang Xiaowei only heaved a sigh of relief when she saw that it was the old lady.
She could only nod her head.
Huangfu Qiye and the others on the other side did not notice her at all. The long row of cars quickly disappeared into the night.
On the other side, Tao Yuyan, who had been informed by the phone that she was going to save Tang Xiaowei in another city, had put on her clothes after receiving the call. She carried her bag, took her money, bank card, and cell phone, and prepared to leave.
However, just as she went downstairs, she saw a tall figure standing at the stairway. The figure's back was facing her, but it still made her feel endless pressure.
If it was in the past, she would hide as far away from him as possible.
But now, she heard that her good friend's situation on the phone was very strange. She had to save her good friend, so even though she was very afraid of the man at the stairway, she still braced herself and walked down.
Footsteps sounded and the man turned his head back with an overbearing and aggressive gaze on her.
Tao Yuyan suddenly felt a chill all over her body and said uncomfortably, "Ah Xian, I have something to do and I won't be back for dinner. I might not be back until tomorrow."
After saying that, she did not wait for the man to answer and prepared to leave.
But just as she walked to the man's side, her arm was grabbed by the man forcefully. The man's face was gloomy. "Sis, you've been hiding from me for many days. Now that we finally meet, you're going out and not coming back for the whole night. Do you think I'll let you go out alone without worry?"
Tao Yuyan was very afraid of him. She lowered her head in fear. "Ah Xian, don't be like this. Father and mother are both at home. And I really have something on. Let me go quickly."
"Father and mother are both at home? You're afraid, but I'm not. Don't you know?" Tao Xian's handsome face was cold. His lips curled into a cold smile. He blocked her way forcing her into a corner.
Tao Yuyan was so anxious that her face was red and white. She did not dare to look at him. She could only lower her head, shrink her shoulders and hide in a corner. "Ah Xian, don't be like this. I really have something urgent to go out. I have to save my friend."
"You can go out if you want. I will go with you."
Tao Xian took the bag from her shoulder and walked forward. His other hand was still holding her hand tightly.
Tao Yuyan was instantly nervous and wanted to shake his hand off. "Ah Xian, let go of me. I am your sister. You can't pull me like this."
"You can't pull me like this? What do you want to do?" Tao Xian stopped and looked back at her with a deep gaze.
His tone was full of evil. Tao Yuyan knew that he was strong and did not know how to answer. She just used her strength to shake his hand off. "Anyway, you should let go of me."
"Didn't you want to save your friend? If you don't want to waste time, don't dawdle anymore." Tao Xian deliberately said this coldly, showing no intention of letting go of her.
After he said that, without waiting for her to react, he pulled her out of the door and quickly got into the car.
By the time Tao Yuyan reacted, the car was already speeding on the road.
She was about to say something to reject him, but Tao Xian seemed to know what she was going to say. He said coldly, "Didn't you say you want to save your friend? Do you want to continue delaying?"
Hearing that, Tao Yuyan had no choice but to shut her mouth obediently and say nothing.
Tao Xian asked her, "Where are you going? Who is the friend you want to save?"
Tao Yuyan knew that he was determined to send her there, so she could only answer him truthfully and did not dare to hide anything.
Tao Xian was very satisfied with this result.
At this moment, on the other side, Tang Xiaowei had successfully avoided Huangfu Qiye's investigation, but she did not escape the torture of muscle hunger.
In the end, she still ate the instant noodles given by the old lady and waited for Tao Yuyan's arrival anxiously.
However, the night was getting darker and Tao Yuyan still did not appear. On the other hand, Huangfu Qiye's men appeared on the road two or three times. She was like a frightened bird and did not dare to act rashly.
Finally, when the old lady was about to close the door to rest, a car finally drove up on the road in front. The lights of the car shone on the small phone booth.
Tang Xiaowei also vaguely saw the figures of Tao Yuyan and Tao Xian in the car.
She found it strange. After all, Tao Yuyan and Tao Xian did not have a good relationship. Although they were siblings, Tao Yuyan was only two months older than Tao Xian. Moreover, they were not biological siblings. Tao Yuyan was adopted by the Tao family, so from a young age Tao Xian always bullied Tao Yuyan.
Since Tang Xiaowei and Tao Yuyan were so close, they must have known that Tao Yuyan and Tao Xian did not have a good relationship. However, now that they had come together, Tang Xiaowei could not figure out why.
However, before she could figure it out, the car stopped. Tao Yuyan pushed open the car door and ran in Tang Xiaowei's direction. "Xiaowei."
Tang Xiaowei was afraid that if she shouted too loudly, Huangfu Qiye's people would hear her. Hence, she hurriedly ran up and hugged Tao Yuyan She whispered, "Yuyan, I thought you weren't coming. Help me pay for the phone bill and instant noodles. Let's get in the car and leave."
