Chapter 467: Xu Tian, what exactly do you want?

~7 min read 1,295 words

However, Xu Tian remained unmoved by their explanation.

"I think it's quite good here, and there's a free show to watch. Why would I want to go out?"

Bodyguards:...

Interrogator:...

The prisoner, who had been tortured into an unrecognizable state:...

He is not a circus monkey; what is there to watch?

"No matter what you say, I'm not going out anyway." Xu Tian made up his mind not to leave: "If you are truly overflowing with kindness, then give my spot to someone else."

The two bodyguards and the interrogator looked at each other, truly not knowing what to do with Xu Tian for a moment.

If it really doesn't work, should they knock him out and throw him out?

But the two Tang family bodyguards knew Xu Tian's strength; knocking him out would probably be harder than ascending to heaven.

Just when they were at their wits' end, a burst of hurried footsteps came from the corridor again.

Everyone turned to look and saw Tang Jihuai, dressed in a suit and leather shoes, actually walking into the interrogation room himself.

"Have you released him yet?" Tang Jihuai asked impatiently as soon as he walked over.

"This..." One of the bodyguards glanced at Xu Tian in a very conflicted manner, then stammered: "We... we intended to release him, but... this person refuses to go out..."

"Idiots! Can't you even do the job of releasing someone?" Tang Jihuai angrily raised his arm and slapped the bodyguard.

Seeing Tang Jihuai's flustered and exasperated appearance, Xu Tian knew that Tang Bingyan must be fine.

Otherwise, Tang Jihuai should have sent someone to kill him instead of releasing him.

Learning that Tang Bingyan had turned the corner and was safe, Xu Tian's tightly wound nerves finally relaxed a bit.

For him, nothing was more precious than this news.

Suburban sanatorium.

Tang Laoyezi stood guard by Tang Bingyan's bedside and refused to leave. Coaxed by Tang Bingyan, he barely managed to take his blood pressure medication.

"Grandpa, didn't I say I'm fine? Please don't worry. The doctor said your emotions shouldn't be too agitated."

"Isn't it because I'm happy." Tang Laoyezi held Tang Bingyan's hand tightly, as if she would disappear the moment he let go: "You scared Grandpa to death these past two days!"

A Wei stood at the door, wanting to inform Tang Bingyan of Xu Tian's current situation several times, but was interrupted by Tang Laoyezi.

Just when Tang Laoyezi was coaxed into taking his medicine and drinking a cup of warm water, he finally seized the opportunity to interject: "Eldest Miss, Xu..."

However, as soon as he opened his mouth, he was stopped by Du Zhongyan beside him.

"A Wei, you are also an old hand with Tang Zong and the others; how can you not even understand this little bit of etiquette? Tang Zong has just woken up and her body is still very weak. Don't report unimportant matters to Tang Zong. Even if it's a matter of heaven-shaking importance, nothing is more important than Tang Zong's health."

"But..." Xu Tian was about to speak again, only to be interrupted by Du Zhongyan once more.

"A Wei, let's go out first. The old man definitely wants to spend some time alone with Tang Zong."

After saying this, he grabbed A Wei's arm without question and dragged him outside.

A Wei was dragged to the door and suddenly, taking advantage of Du Zhongyan's relaxed vigilance, said quickly.

"Eldest Miss, Mr. Xu is still locked in the interrogation room. If we delay any longer, I'm afraid his body won't be able to take it!"

What?

Tang Laoyezi's face changed drastically upon hearing this: "You said where is Xu Tian?"

Tang Bingyan's entire body was also instantly shrouded in cold air: "Xu Tian is locked in the interrogation room?"

She had clearly sent people to protect Xu Tian and ensure his safe evacuation; how could he...

She hadn't seen Xu Tian in the ward just now and thought he had already safely left Jiangcheng.

As a result, A Wei told her that Xu Tian was in the interrogation room?

The Tang family's interrogation room was a living hell. Even if those sent there were lucky enough to escape with their lives, they would become cripples.

Damn it...

In an instant, the entire ward was swept by an extremely strong, gloomy atmosphere, making people afraid to even breathe loudly.

Tang family interrogation room.

Tang Jihuai received a call from Du Zhongyan.

"Hello, what's wrong?"

"Tang Zong already knows that Xu Tian is locked in the interrogation room and is currently rushing over from the sanatorium!"

"She already knows?" Tang Jihuai's hand shook, and his phone almost fell to the floor.

Too fast. Tang Bingyan knew faster than he had anticipated.

No, he must get Xu Tian out of the interrogation room before Tang Bingyan arrives, otherwise, everything will be completely ruined.

After hanging up the phone, Tang Jihuai barely managed to squeeze out a smile and looked at Xu Tian.

"Mr. Xu, you..."

"Sixth Grand-Uncle, I am a junior; how dare I let you use honorifics?" Xu Tian feigned ignorance and asked in surprise: "Are you here to interrogate me yourself this time?"

Tang Jihuai's mouth twitched. He barely managed to suppress his anger and said in a conciliatory tone: "Mr. Xu, it was a misunderstanding earlier. I was a bit impulsive due to anxiety; I hope you can understand."

"After all, the Family Head's health is of vital importance to the Tang family. As an elder in the family, I also need to plug the mouths of others."

"Now that the misunderstanding is cleared up, a dark and damp place like the interrogation room is truly not a place to stay for long. Hurry and come out with me."

Hearing this, Xu Tian smiled faintly and waved his hand: "Dark and damp here? I actually think it's quite cool, and it's not boring either; there's someone to keep me company."

Tang Jihuai:...

The good temper he had feigned instantly shattered. Tang Jihuai returned to that sinister, vicious expression and gritted his teeth.

"Xu Tian, don't be ungrateful!"

"No, no, no, your old face is useless to me anyway." Xu Tian spread his hands with a smile.

"You..." Tang Jihuai's blood pressure soared. Seeing that he couldn't do anything to Xu Tian, he could only turn to his subordinates: "Don't just stand there like idiots, hurry up and invite Mr. Xu out!"

Hearing this, the two bodyguards immediately stepped forward and lunged at Xu Tian from left and right.

Originally, Xu Tian was standing in front of Tang Jihuai with his arms crossed, but the moment the two bodyguards lunged, he quickly retreated a few steps, flexibly opening up the distance, and taking advantage of the fact that the two hadn't reacted yet, he simply used two over-the-shoulder throws, tossing them into a heap.

"Ah..."

"Ah..."

Two screams came from the interrogation room. The bodyguards lay on the ground, wailing for a long time, unable to crawl up.

Tang Jihuai's face changed drastically. Damn it, this pretty boy is actually this powerful.

He hadn't seen Xu Tian make a move before and originally thought the rumors were exaggerated, perhaps everyone was deliberately going easy on him to curry favor with Xu Tian.

Now, seeing him knock down his two subordinates without any effort, it was truly hard to accept.

"Xu Tian, what exactly do you want?"

"Sixth Grand-Uncle, when you sent me in, didn't you say you would handle it impartially regardless of who pleaded for mercy?" Xu Tian said with a smile: "Then I want you to handle it impartially. You said I plotted against Bingyan, so produce the evidence." ===== CHAPTER 468 =====
