Chapter 749

Did something happen to Shu Xia?

Putting it all together: today Shu Xia didn't reply to her messages, then Brother Mu Ting didn't answer her calls, and Zhang Tezhu even told her to call and resolve it herself—do these things combined mean that something happened to Shu Xia?

"Could it be that I misheard?"

After all, she has a fever.

In a feverish state, it is very likely that one might not hear people clearly, causing a certain illusion.

But...

If she didn't mishear, and something really did happen to Shu Xia...

Song Ziqi's heart suddenly began to race, "If... if something really happened to Shu Xia..."

"If it was a very serious car accident, perhaps rescue efforts would be ineffective."

Thinking of this, Song Ziqi immediately bit her lip, her heart beating even faster.

She must confirm whether something happened to Shu Xia!

She then called Guo Nan, dialing several times in a row.

Just like before, Guo Nan did not answer the phone.

She was now almost certain that something had definitely happened to Shu Xia!

——

Half an hour later.

When the tightly locked factory gate was forcibly broken open with a chainsaw.

Several figures rushed inside at high speed.

When the first few people to break in saw the dense array of cameras and floodlights in the factory, their expressions all changed drastically.

At the same time, hearing the noise, Shu Xia looked toward the few people with unfocused eyes.

Her blurred vision was, however, able to accurately lock onto one of the figures.

"Qiao Muting, you finally came."

Shu Xia's voice was weak and listless.

Qiao Muting looked at Shu Xia, whose face was covered in blood, his pupils shaking violently as his gaze swept toward the few men to the side.

The few men were all covered in injuries and bloodstains.

Except for their underwear, they were wearing almost nothing, and their wounds looked bloody and raw.

This scene shocked Li Yuan; he looked at Shu Xia in disbelief.

She...

Her head and face were covered in blood, her clothes were torn and disheveled, and the moment she finished speaking, she fainted directly.

What she held in her hand was not a knife, but a rusted scrap of iron.

When the iron scrap slipped from her hand, it revealed the wound on her fair palm, which was a bloody mess.

When she resisted with the iron scrap, she had injured those bastards while also injuring herself.

"You are courting death!" Qiao Muting swept his gaze toward the men who were stunned on the spot and said sternly.

The few men had already developed murderous intent due to Shu Xia's resistance.

They hadn't expected Shu Xia to have some skills, causing them all to suffer losses.

Just at this moment, the thing they were worried about happened: Qiao Muting had actually tracked them down!

Li Yuan looked at Shu Xia with a complex gaze; a delicate girl, when facing such a dangerous situation, could still fight back with her life—she was too surprising.

Qiao Muting took off his suit jacket, covered Shu Xia with it, picked up the woman who had fainted from exhaustion, and simultaneously said to Zhang Tezhu at his side, "Teach them a lesson, and find out who bribed them."

"Leave it to me," Li Yuan said in a deep voice.

Meeting Li Yuan's dark gaze, Qiao Muting nodded.
