Beep beep beep beep...
"Why have you called again? I was just..."
As Xiao Ming rushed out of the office building, he finally got through to Jiang Xue's phone and cut off his wife before she could finish, urgently saying, "Xue'er, leave there immediately! Don't ask why, hurry!"
There was a moment of silence from Jiang Xue, then she said, "Wait a second."
Suddenly, her voice came through the receiver again, "Who are you? This is a private space, please leave... Is that you? What are you here for... Ah..."
Clack!
The unmistakable sound of a phone hitting the ground sent Xiao Ming's vision darkening, nearly causing him to collapse.
"Xue'er! Xue'er! Xue..."
"Hello!"
A polite greeting came through the handset, "This is Zhuang Wending, may I ask who is on the line?"
Xiao Ming clenched his teeth, "Release my wife, and I'll let you leave Longyin alive!"
"Oh, so you're the lady's husband, a pleasure to meet you!"
