Chapter 656: A Sudden Unexpected Situation

The car slowly approached the villa.

It did not stop at the entrance, however, but circled around to the direction of the rear garden.

"Here?"

Cai Xiaotang lowered her voice and asked in a whisper.

"Mm."

Li Xiao raised his eyes to scan the direction of the villa, looking at the rooms on the second floor.

"I have already sent people into the villa. It is very likely that Poison Snake has kept Tiantian alone in one of the guest rooms under guard; the second-floor windows are the fastest way to confirm."

As Li Xiao spoke, he signaled for Li Beijue to get out of the car.

Aside from the lead car that had already entered the villa, the remaining vehicles did not approach the villa and instead stopped at a distance.

"Shura, we have already entered the villa and are preparing to search for the person."

"Shura, we have exited the vehicle on our end and are going to ambush the perimeter of the villa now."

The voices of his subordinates reporting came through Li Xiao's earpiece.

"Mm."

Li Xiao gave a response.

Jiang Baobao was still nervously staring at the screen, watching the footage from the surveillance.

"Baobao..."

Li Beijue called out to Jiang Baobao softly and took her hand.

Jiang Baobao paused slightly, and in an instant, only the sound of her drumming heartbeat remained in her ears.

Their gazes met, and they could understand each other's meaning almost without the need for extra words.

"You must be careful; Tiantian... is left to you."

Jiang Baobao forced a smile.

Li Beijue gently brushed his fingers against her palm, then let go decisively and turned to get out of the car.

Jiang Baobao casually pulled a small object from her pocket and tucked it into her ear.

"Hello? Can you hear me?"

She said tentatively.

"Mm."

Li Beijue responded, and together with Li Xiao, he walked toward the direction of the wall.

Jiang Baobao spoke quickly in a low voice: "There are two people patrolling in the garden. They just passed your current position three minutes ago and will likely circle back in about five minutes. Take this chance to go in and find a place to hide; it should be easy to take those two down."

"Good."

Li Xiao gave a brief, one-word response, then with a light and agile lift of his leg, he vaulted directly over the garden fence without making a sound.

Li Beijue followed closely behind, also without making a noise.

Jiang Baobao and Cai Xiaotang were still at some distance in the car and could not see the situation on their side clearly.

Seeing only two dark shadows quickly vault into the garden, they both could not help but break into a cold sweat.

"Hurry and find a place to hide..."

Cai Xiaotang, also wearing an earpiece, could not help but speak up.

"Tap, tap, tap—"

Three light tapping sounds came through the earpiece.

That was the secret signal they had agreed upon earlier, indicating that everything was normal.

Jiang Baobao breathed a sigh of relief, seeing the two figures that had just disappeared appear under a camera on the other side of the garden.

"The two of them are about to circle around; watch your concealment."

She whispered a reminder.

Inside the garden—Li Xiao and Li Beijue were already hiding behind a cluster of trees.

Both held their breath, neither speaking, waiting quietly.

But just at this moment—Li Xiao's peripheral vision suddenly caught a glimpse of a red dot of light flashing quickly past the corner of his eye!

He was stunned for a moment and instinctively looked toward the bushes opposite, and immediately saw the red dot of light flash quickly again!

Something is wrong!

Not good!!

There is danger!!!

"Go!"

Action taking precedence over thought, Li Xiao pulled Li Beijue and rushed out toward the direction they had come from without the slightest hesitation!

The next second—"Bang!!!"

A massive explosion suddenly rang out!

Immediately following that, another "bang" suddenly came from another part of the villa!

It seemed as if flames were leaping up inside the villa, and one room was instantly engulfed in thick smoke.

"What is going on?"

Li Beijue's ears were nearly deafened, and he looked at Li Xiao in surprise.

"Not sure, let's get out of here first!"

Li Xiao did not dare to risk Jiang Baobao and Cai Xiaotang, who were still outside, and pulled Li Beijue as they vaulted back out the way they had come.

Outside the villa—Jiang Baobao was startled by the massive explosion, and watching the surveillance footage go completely black, she could not help but panic for a moment.

"What is going on? What about the surveillance? Is it all broken?"

Her thoughts were pulled back to the explosion on the day of the wedding, and she became completely flustered.

"Baobao!"

"Xiao Tang!"

Li Xiao and Li Beijue got into the car at almost the same time.

"What is going on? Where is Tiantian? Why was there an explosion?"

Her voice had just fallen when she heard two more loud bangs coming from the villa!

Only then did Jiang Baobao remember to look back at the villa, and immediately she saw one side of the second floor already submerged in thick smoke!

"Tiantian! Tiantian!"

Jiang Baobao's eyes instantly turned red, and she wanted to get out of the car while calling out Tiantian's name.

"Baobao! You cannot go over there!"

Cai Xiaotang hurriedly grabbed her, unable to help her own eyes from turning red as well.

Jiang Baobao, however, was struggling with almost every ounce of her strength: "My Tiantian! What if she is inside! I want to go save her! Li Beijue! Save her! She must be very scared! Li Beijue!"

Jiang Baobao's face was covered in tears, her tone tinged with a trace of despair.

Why was there an explosion again...

Clearly, just a moment ago, she had been full of confidence that she would rescue that little girl...

Why...

"It is still unclear what the situation is, we cannot act rashly, as things stand... I will go find Tiantian, Beijue, you keep an eye on this side, once there is danger, take them away directly, do not worry about me!"

Li Xiao's brows were tightly locked as he looked at the rooms on the second floor billowing with thick smoke, his expression somewhat fierce.

Logically, without figuring out what the situation was, one should not act rashly.

Even if it were a trap, Poison Snake should not be doing something that hurts the enemy by a thousand while damaging himself by eight hundred!

But since he still did not know what the situation was, he could not care about that much anymore...

As he spoke, he was about to get out of the car, but just as he moved, he heard a sound coming from his earpiece.

"Shura! I see Poison Snake! He is with his men, a woman, and two children, a boy and a girl, the girl is our target! They intend to get in a car and leave from the east gate!"

"Understood."

Li Xiao did not say another word, immediately started the car, and drove toward the direction of the east gate!

"Is there news about Tiantian?"

Jiang Baobao was stunned for a moment, then suddenly realized something.

Li Xiao hurriedly replied: "Poison Snake has taken them away."

"Away..."

Jiang Baobao repeated these two words, then suddenly realized what was happening and pressed against the car window with a nervous expression.

Li Xiao stepped on the accelerator rapidly and fiercely.

"Can we catch up? Will we be able to rescue Tiantian in a little while?"

Jiang Baobao looked nervously at the scenery flashing by, and her voice had just fallen when she saw a car suddenly rush out from the turn ahead!

That car seemed not to have expected another car to be there, swerved violently, and then directly accelerated, sliding past Li Xiao's car!

It took no more than a second.

The two cars drove in completely opposite directions.

Jiang Baobao, however, suddenly widened her eyes and pounded on the car window: "Tiantian! I saw Tiantian! She is in that car!"
