Chapter 420: Cai Xiaotang is in Trouble
Cai Xiaotang glared at the man before her, not retreating in the slightest.
The man seemed startled by her, but then regained his composure and warned in a low voice, "This is none of your business, you'd better get lost! Otherwise, don't blame me for laying a hand on a woman..."
Cai Xiaotang was stunned upon hearing this, but she wasn't afraid; instead, she instantly let out a laugh of disdain.
Lay a hand on her?
This was the middle of the street!
Besides, she had two bodyguards following behind her!
Cai Xiaotang glanced at the two subordinates of Li Xiao who were following far behind, and seeing that the two of them seemed about to step forward, she hurriedly gave them a look, signaling them not to come over.
The two men indeed stood in their tracks instantly, merely staring at this side from afar.
Only then did Cai Xiaotang nod with satisfaction in her heart, then she took out her phone and warned loudly as well, "If you have the guts, try touching me! Believe it or not, I'll call the police right now?"
As she spoke, she made a show of preparing to dial the police.
The old woman hiding behind Cai Xiaotang also spoke up tremblingly, "Young lady, thank you..."
As the old woman spoke, she gripped Cai Xiaotang's arm tightly, appearing extremely frightened.
Cai Xiaotang was suddenly filled with rage; too lazy to say more, she was about to call the police directly.
Seeing that the situation was unfavorable, the man hurriedly turned and left.
He was still shouting loudly, "You just wait! You can dodge the first day, but you can't dodge the fifteenth!"
"If you've got the guts, don't run!" Cai Xiaotang yelled disdainfully at his back, and watching him run away quickly, she put her phone away with annoyance.
"Lucky for him he ran fast! Otherwise, I would have definitely sent him to the police station to be locked up for a few days!"
As Cai Xiaotang spoke, she turned around, instantly restrained her previous expression, and looked at the old woman behind her with concern, "Grandma, are you alright? Does that hooligan always come to harass you?"
"Sigh..."
The old woman sighed helplessly and shook her head.
"That man comes by a few times almost every month, and every time he demands protection money from me. I only sell a few flowers like this... where would I get the money to give him..."
Upon hearing this, Cai Xiaotang hurriedly looked at the flowers on the ground, then without another word, she generously took out her wallet.
"Grandma, I'll buy all these flowers of yours. You take this money..."
She took out almost all the cash in her wallet and was about to stuff it into the old woman's hands.
The old woman waved her hand and pushed it back, "No need, young lady. If you really want to help me... why not help me take these flowers home? My leg seems to have been bumped just now, and it's a bit inconvenient... I have an old man at home who is bedridden. A few years ago, when his legs were still good, he could help me sell them, but now..."
As the old woman spoke, she couldn't help but wipe away tears.
Cai Xiaotang couldn't bear to see such a scene. Seeing this, she immediately took out a tissue and agreed without hesitation, "Okay, I'll help you take these flowers back. If you have other flowers at home, I'll take them all too."
As Cai Xiaotang spoke, she hurriedly squatted down to help tidy up the flowers that had been kicked over on the ground.
She did not notice that at the street corner not far away, the man who had just left was hiding and watching her.
"Young lady, this is enough. Don't bother with the ones that are too damaged..."
Seeing that Cai Xiaotang had picked up most of them, the old woman spoke up hurriedly.
Cai Xiaotang nodded, tidied up all the flowers, placed them in the old woman's small bag, and then asked, "Grandma, is your home far? My car is right over there..."
"Not far, not far." The old woman hurriedly waved her hand, then pointed to the intersection ahead, "It's just across the road. There's a small alley there, and my home is right there..."
"Then I'll take you over."
Cai Xiaotang had no suspicions at all. Thinking that she still had bodyguards following her, she supported the old woman across the road and walked into the alley.
The sky gradually darkened, and there was no one in the quiet alley.
There were only old houses that hadn't been lived in for many years; the doors looked dilapidated and were even covered in cobwebs.
Cai Xiaotang silently supported the old woman as they turned another corner, finally feeling that the surrounding environment was a bit too quiet.
She felt inexplicably uneasy.
It was too quiet here...
Does this grandma really live here?
Cai Xiaotang's expression was hesitant, and she inexplicably thought of the news she had seen before about elderly people specifically kidnapping young girls.
Her heart skipped a beat, and she subconsciously looked back at the direction they had come from.
She then saw two familiar figures still following far behind.
Only then did Cai Xiaotang feel much more at ease, and she couldn't help but find a topic to ask, "Grandma, have you always lived here?"
"Yes..." The old woman nodded, answering in a tone that sounded completely normal, "I've lived here since long ago. How could we afford those high-rises in the city center? Young lady, you must be tired from walking, right? Just walk through here and you'll be out..."
"No, how could I be tired from this little distance?"
Cai Xiaotang completely set her heart at ease and continued to support the old woman as they walked forward.
Not long after, she saw some faint lights appearing ahead.
Passing through the alley, there was an entire old neighborhood.
Cai Xiaotang was just about to say something else when she suddenly heard the sound of brakes behind her.
She subconsciously turned her head and saw a van appear from nowhere, just happening to block the path she had come from!
"Young lady..."
The old woman's voice rang in her ear.
Cai Xiaotang turned her head abruptly and saw another van that had stopped in front of her at some point!
Where did all these vans come from?
Cai Xiaotang was stunned for a moment.
Before she could recover, she saw three burly men wearing masks get out of the van and grab her arms!
"What are you doing!"
Cai Xiaotang looked at the few people in a panic, her eyes suddenly looking at the old woman beside her in disbelief.
Immediately after, someone twisted her body and shoved her fiercely into the car!
With a "clang," the car door was locked tight.
"Who are you! Let me out!"
Cai Xiaotang pounded on the car door frantically, her eyes filled with panic.
The next second—
"You are the Third Madam of the Li Family?"
The man's gloomy voice rang out inside the car, causing Cai Xiaotang to stiffen instantly.
These people were coming for Li Xiao!
"I..."
Cai Xiaotang's thoughts tangled for a moment, and she immediately spoke to deny it: "I don't know what madam you are talking about, you have the wrong person, let me out!"
As soon as her words fell, her body lurched violently to one side!
The car had already been started at high speed by someone and was racing forward.
Cai Xiaotang lifted her eyes sharply, looking at the scenery flying past outside the window, her heart turning ice-cold.
It's over...
Where are these lunatics taking her?
Are they planning to use her to threaten Li Xiao?
