Snatching Women from the Male Lead

Chapter 29

Qin Zhao quietly put on her face mask.

If they were to come over,

beating them up wouldn't be out of the question.

"Who's there?"

The other party asked while moving towards Qin Zhao. His voice trembled a little, seemingly worried that there was some dirty thing.

"Is it human or ghost?! Come out quickly!!" The man yelled louder and louder, as if to embolden himself.

When he was five meters away from Qin Zhao, Ye Chenxi said: "Enough, come back quickly! What could be out here in the desolate mountains and wilderness."

The man also breathed a sigh of relief and stopped approaching Qin Zhao.

A few minutes later, after Ye Chenxi and the others had walked away, Qin Zhao came out from the bushes and said to the system, "Change the route."

"Okay."

The route 502 found this time was a little further, but not much. Qin Zhao started rushing down the road as soon as possible.

"Host, there are two pieces of news. Do you want to hear the good news first or the bad news?"

Qin Zhao rolled her eyes and said, "Bad news."

502: "The bad news is Nan Chenghui's helicopter has landed.

The good news is Nan Chenghui and the others don't know exactly where Chen Xiao lives, and they are debating how to find him.

Over the years in the village, Chen Xiao has lived in several different places."

"If Nan Chenghui can't find it, Ye Chenxi must not have found it either. They can only go door to door asking.

Very good, this is my chance!"

Qin Zhao threw away the water and bags of beef jerky in her backpack to reduce the load, then started running.

After passing through the dense forest and wading across a stream, she saw faint light ahead, spilling out from the villagers' homes!

With a clear goal, her steps became even more swift. Fifteen minutes later, she had entered the village.

"Woof! Woof woof!"

A few barks startled Qin Zhao!

"Don't bark, don't bark, it will draw the villagers and make things difficult."

She quickly took out a ham from her bag, tore it open, and threw it to the puppy's mouth.

The puppy looked at Qin Zhao warily, but couldn't resist the temptation of food in the end. It lowered its head and started eating.

Qin Zhao took the chance to circle around the puppy...

After the puppy finished the ham, it started barking again, but Qin Zhao had already run far away.

She headed straight for Chen Xiao's house according to the system's instructions.

At the same time, Ye Chenxi and Nan Chenghui had also arrived at Liujia Village!

"Host, go faster. You only have limited time to speak to Chen Xiao alone. You must convince him to leave with you within 20 minutes!"

"Okay."

Two minutes later, Qin Zhao arrived at the mud house where Chen Xiao was.

There was light inside, so Chen Xiao probably hadn't gone to sleep yet.

Qin Zhao walked to the wooden door and knocked lightly twice, but no one responded.

She tried pushing the door. It wasn't locked and opened very easily.

A stench poured out from the crack of the door into Qin Zhao's nostrils!

She frowned slightly, endured it for a few seconds outside the door before opening it and walking in.

Upon entering, she saw an old man with snow white hair sitting in a wheelchair with his hands resting on the armrests.

His hair reached his shoulders, so someone must have helped trim it regularly.

He had his head lowered and was motionless.

He seemed to be asleep.

Inside the house was a bed and a wooden table and long bench covered in dust and oil stains.

There were some hollows in the earthen walls stuffed with plastic bags, probably to keep out wind and rain.

There were also two small rooms, but the lights were off so she couldn't see inside clearly. Qin Zhao called out softly, "Old uncle, are you asleep?"

The old man's body twitched slightly, then became still again.

Obviously he was awake but didn't want to acknowledge Qin Zhao.

Qin Zhao didn't have time to waste with him, so she directly said, "Nan Chenghui."

Upon hearing the name, the old man's decrepit body spasmed violently!

He raised his head and looked sharply at Qin Zhao. His eyes were murky as he asked in a hoarse voice, "You know Nan Chenghui? No, did Nan Chenghui send you?"

Since this person was Nan Chenghui's friend, he should be around the same age, but his face was already as withered as bark, and his body was skin and bones.

Qin Zhao said, "The first half is right, but I didn't come from him. In fact, he himself has come tonight too."

Chen Xiao's body trembled, but it wasn't from fear, it was from anger. "What is he here to do?!"

"I think you already know the answer in your heart. He's here to kill you."

The room fell silent briefly.

Soon, Chen Xiao started laughing lowly, "Hahahaha, come on then. With this body, living is meaningless anyway, dying would be a relief."

"Is that so?" Qin Zhao asked.

Chen Xiao didn't respond.

Qin Zhao continued, "The desire to live is human instinct. Judging by your current state, even though your body is broken beyond repair, to the point you can't even walk with your legs, you still choose to keep living.

That alone shows the issue clearly.

Not only do you want to live, you want to live well.

I came to provide you with precisely such an opportunity.

As long as you leave with me, I'll be responsible for your life going forward."

Chen Xiao turned his head to look at Qin Zhao, a gleam flashed in his eyes. "Your offer is very tempting, but why should I believe you?"

Qin Zhao took off her mask, "Because I have a grudge with Nan Chenghui, because I want to use you to take him down.

If we cooperate, it would be mutually beneficial with no one taking advantage of the other."

Chen Xiao's gaze roamed over Qin Zhao's face, as if trying to find any signs of lying.

After a while, he said, "Old man hasn't seen such a pretty woman in a long time."

Qin Zhao: "..."

She smiled, wanting to scold him but remaining polite. "Then take a good look while you can.

If you agree to my request, there will be plenty of chances in the future.

If not, you won't get to see anymore soon."

"Host, they're here!" The system called out anxiously.

Qin Zhao immediately strode over to the candle and extinguished the flame.

She said softly to Chen Xiao, "He's here. Before I leave, you can think about it."

She pushed Chen Xiao's wheelchair into the room on the left.

The two held their breath, listening carefully to the sounds outside the door.

The stench of decay filled the room, making Qin Zhao feel like she could barely breathe with each inhalation.

An aged voice came from the darkness: "Alright, I agree to you..."

What else he said was drowned out by the sudden fighting sounds from outside the door!

Nan Chenghui yelled, "Kill them all! Especially Ye Chenxi!!"

Ye Chenxi was just as fierce, "Go on, what are you waiting for! Kill Nan Chenghui, 100,000 reward for each person!!"
