Chapter 348 - Chapter 348 Chapter 344 Sudden Incident
Chapter 348: Chapter 344 Sudden Incident Chapter 348: Chapter 344 Sudden Incident Fang Xiaocao and Taotie had been waiting at the snack shop for nearly an hour, with hunger making Fang Xiaocao see stars. She was so famished she considered gnawing on the table when the owner finally showed up tardily with a bunch of servers.
The boss combined several tables and still managed to cover them with an overwhelming amount of food, leaving Fang Xiaocao stunned.
“Isn’t this way too much?”
“I can’t finish all this!”
Fang Xiaocao’s expression could be summed up by the words “utterly baffled.”
“Princess Your Highness, you start.”
“Leave the rest to Taotie and Bao Yuan.”
Taotie said confidently, thumping his chest.
Fang Xiaocao looked at the food on the table and then at Taotie and Bao Yuan, feeling a bit skeptical.
Although Taotie and Bao Yuan were both built solidly, with an appearance suggesting great battle prowess, it still seemed unlikely they could consume so much food.
Fang Xiaocao asked the owner for a plate, picked a little of each dish, stepped aside, and made room for the two men: “Please start your performance, and remember not to waste food.”
As she said this, Fang Xiaocao sat down to enjoy her own meal while watching how Taotie and Bao Yuan handled the mountain of food on the table.
Taotie and Bao Yuan exchanged glances; Bao Yuan almost cried, his face pleading.
Taotie glared at him and shoved the roasted lamb leg on the table into Bao Yuan’s hands: “Eat quickly, and see what I’ll do to you if you don’t finish.”
Feeling Taotie’s threat, Bao Yuan shivered and hastily started gnawing on the lamb leg, afraid of being beaten if he was too slow.
Bao Yuan feared nothing in the world except Taotie. He was scared when he was a lackey, and he was still scared now that he was an officer of the White Tiger Hall.
Watching this unfold, Fang Xiaocao inwardly sighed: “Taotie truly lives up to his name, he’s so cunning. That lamb leg alone makes up for a third of all the food on this table.”
Seeing Bao Yuan obediently follow suit, Taotie nodded in satisfaction and began to eat himself, setting aside the main dishes that were particularly filling for young Bao Yuan to finish later.
Bao Yuan was so moved he nearly cried, touched by his brother-in-law’s heavy, stomach-reaching love that both he and his stomach found overwhelming.
Half an hour later!
Fang Xiaocao put down her plate and looked towards Taotie and Bao Yuan.
The pair’s combat prowess was definitely extraordinary.
They’d managed to devour more than half of the food that would have been enough for four or five people.
By then, Bao Yuan’s face was the picture of desolation, the light in his eyes gone.
“Little Bao,”
“you take care of the rest.”
“However you want to do it, Princess Your Highness said we can’t waste, so you can’t waste.”
Taotie pushed the remaining snacks towards Bao Yuan with a smile.
Bao Yuan wanted to run but couldn’t escape.
He resignedly started to gobble up everything.
It wasn’t until a large kebab had been swallowed that the table was finally cleared of food.
By that point, Bao Yuan was so stuffed he couldn’t even stand up, slumping on his chair with a look that screamed, “the desire to weep but no tears to shed.”
Taotie nodded in approval, then turned to Fang Xiaocao: “Princess Your Highness, all finished.”
Fang Xiaocao smiled slightly and got up to leave.
“I’m going back to the hotel now, you do as you please.”
Before she finished speaking, Fang Xiaocao had already left the snack shop, heading towards the hotel.
Taotie hurriedly followed her.
He escorted Fang Xiaocao closely all the way.
Ding-a-ling–
As they reached the hotel’s entrance, Taotie’s phone suddenly rang.
Taotie pulled out the phone and saw “Jiang Xinyan” flashing on the screen.
Taotie stealthily glanced at Fang Xiaocao, hesitant to answer. Fang Xiaocao noticed Taotie’s reluctance and walked straight toward the elevator.
“I’m going to my room. You go handle your business, just don’t let it interfere with important matters.”
As she finished speaking, the elevator arrived.
Fang Xiaocao stepped in, didn’t wait for Taotie, pressed the button for her floor, and the elevator doors closed.
Taotie quickly hit the answer button.
“Hello?”
“Xinyan, are you missing me?” Taotie teased as the call connected.
“Hurry and save me and Nannan, the estate is under siege, and Magu and the others can’t hold out much longer.”
Jiang Xinyan’s anxious voice came through the phone, causing Taotie’s expression to shift dramatically.
Taotie almost subconsciously turned around and ran towards the hotel’s main entrance.
“What’s going on?”
“What happened?”
Taotie asked anxiously.
“It’s my second uncle who’s come back!”
“He’s gathered some people from the Ban Mountain line and some fence-sitters from the various halls, preparing to force me to relinquish the position of Sect Master and take control of the Tomb Raider Sect!”
Hearing Jiang Xinyan’s response, Taotie’s brow furrowed tightly, “That old bastard is still alive?”
“Didn’t he die with your dad in that Tubo Grave back then?”
As soon as Taotie burst out of the hotel entrance, he saw Bao Yuan about to get into a car. Taotie took three steps in two and leaped into the car, shouting, “Drive fast, back to the manor!”
Suddenly with an extra passenger, Bao Yuan was initially startled, then promptly snapped to attention, nodded, and immediately started the car, speeding towards the manor.
“I’ve always felt he didn’t die. I’ve had people searching for him all these years. When they went to collect the bodies back then, they didn’t find his corpse. He probably didn’t encounter trouble at all and just ran off on his own.”
Jiang Xinyan answered from the other side of the phone.
Taotie could hear dense gunfire over the phone, as well as the crying of his daughter, Jiang Nannan.
Taotie’s heart instantly soared with worry.
“Xinyan, you must protect yourself and Nannan. I’ll be there soon!” Taotie shouted into the phone with urgency.
“Mm!”
“My daughter and I will wait for you!”
Jiang Xinyan said with a laugh.
The next second!
Dudu dudu–
The call suddenly disconnected.
“Hello?”
“Xinyan?”
Taotie called out twice and glanced at his phone, realizing the call had been disconnected.
“Damn!”
“What’s going on?” Taotie cursed with urgency.
“It’s possible that the signal tower at the manor has been damaged to prevent the young miss from calling for support,” Bao Yuan suggested while driving.
Taotie nodded and put away his phone.
He pulled out his gun and began to check it over and over.
The Jiang Family manor was an hour’s drive from the city center.
Right on the edge of the desert.
The signal there was indeed very weak.
He had paid for the construction of a signal tower himself.
Just to maintain normal communication around the manor.
What Bao Yuan said made a lot of sense.
“Bao Yuan, drive as fast as you can!”
“Xinyan and the others won’t last long,” Taotie said gravely.
“Yes!”
Bao Yuan responded and slammed the gas pedal to the floor; the car’s engine roared angrily as it shot out like an arrow.
Bao Yuan drove recklessly on the road, earning countless curses for his family.
After tearing out of the city, the car’s speed soared to 200 mph, as if it could take off right there and then.
Taotie ignored the massive force pushing him back, his eyes glued to the window, beginning to redden.
Taotie was ready for battle.
Ready to unleash slaughter!
Dare to touch his woman and daughter?
Even if it were the Emperor of Heaven himself, today he would have to leave lying down!
