Divine Doctor and His CEO Wife-Chapter 289: Leng Baiyu’s Whereabouts

"Okay! Okay!"

Li Jiaming was so scared that he almost wet himself, nodding like a chicken pecking at rice.

"First question," Chen Xiao asked coldly, "Did my senior sister board the Li Family’s ship?"

"Who is your senior sister?"

"Leng Baiyu."

Li Jiaming’s pupils flickered, then he nodded, "Yes."

A trace of fear flashed in his eyes.

The matter with Leng Baiyu was very significant, and he played an inglorious role in it. If Chen Xiao found out, would he stomp him to death?

Thinking of this, his heart was filled with even more fear.

Chen Xiao continued to ask, "You organized this auction, right? The venue was also provided by the Li Family! So, who attended the auction? Or to put it another way... did anyone infiltrate it?"

Li Jiatu’s eyes showed a hint of panic, "I... I don’t know, I was only responsible for bridging the connections."

"Crack!"

Another arm of his broke, and the terrible scream made everyone present shudder.

"I told you, don’t lie to me." Chen Xiao’s tone was terrifyingly cold, "You’re lying."

"I’ll talk, I’ll say everything!" Li Jiaming couldn’t hold on any longer, crying as he spoke, "Leng Baiyu has been looking for several kinds of herbs, and a week ago, someone approached me to auction these herbs—namely the legendary Mermaid’s Tears."

"Moreover, he specifically asked me to spread this news to Leng Baiyu!"

"Then, a few days ago, Leng Baiyu came to me, and I let her join the auction."

"Is that all?" Chen Xiao stared at him, his gaze cold.

"That’s... that’s all." Li Jiaming nodded repeatedly.

"Is the news about the Mermaid’s Tears true or false?" Chen Xiao asked again.

"It’s true, I’ve seen the item, and the person also brought it on the ship," Li Jiaming said.

"My senior sister sent me a message saying there’s a change on the ship, which is a trap targeting her."

"You guys should have information on this cruise ship, right? What exactly happened on the ship? Your Li Family, as the host, colluded with others to scheme against my senior sister. It’s hard for me not to suspect you are involved!"

Li Jiaming quickly said, "This auction was highly confidential, there were no people from our Li Family on the cruise, nor any recording devices. Once those participating in the auction boarded the ship, our Li Family could only get its location information."

"As for what happened on the ship, I don’t know."

"However, if you want to know the ship’s location, I can provide it to you."

Chen Xiao said indifferently, "Bring it."

Li Jiaming immediately called someone to bring a computer.

"Take it," Chen Xiao signaled Xu Meimei with a look.

Xu Meimei immediately took the computer and found a red dot appeared on the screen.

This red dot was the location of the cruise.

Now, the ship was on the high seas between Fragrant City and the countries of South Asia.

Li Jiaming said, "Now that you know what you want, can you let me go?"

"One last question..."

Chen Xiao paused, "The person who contacted you about the Mermaid’s Tears, who is he? And what did he offer you to make you cooperate?"

Li Jiaming trembled, "When he met me, he wore a mask, I don’t know who he is, but he gave me ten billion as a reward to lure Leng Baiyu here."

"Ten billion?!"

Chen Xiao laughed angrily, "You’re truly not wronged being crippled."

With that, he kicked Li Jiaming unconscious, sending his body sliding over ten meters across the floor.

He used Hidden Power with that kick, even if Li Jiaming were resuscitated, he’d still be a cripple.

Li Tianhong quickly signaled, and several of the Li Family servants promptly helped Li Jiaming up.

"Let’s go!"

Chen Xiao glanced at Lu Rugao and the others before preparing to leave.

"Boy, did I say you could leave?!" Li Tianhong’s gloomy voice rang out, "None of you are getting away today! All of you stay!"

The rage in his eyes shot out like sharp blades, wishing he could cut Chen Xiao into pieces right on the spot.

Earlier, with Li Jiaming under Chen Xiao’s foot, he dared not act rashly, but now that Chen Xiao had no hostage, of course, he wouldn’t let him leave so easily!

Otherwise, the Li Family wouldn’t be able to stay in Fragrant City anymore.

"You want to stop me?!"

Chen Xiao glared at him coldly, "To kill you is only a thought away, don’t seek death."

Li Tianhong sneered, "You think just because you have some strength, you can be presumptuous in my Li Family? If you really think that, you underestimate the strength of my Li Family!"

With that, dozens of men with guns rushed in from outside.

All of them pointed their guns at Chen Xiao!

The surrounding people quickly backed away in fear, worried they would get caught in the crossfire.

Li Tianhong grinned ferociously, "Boy, you’re doomed! No one has ever dared to act so wantonly in front of my Li Family..."

Before he could finish, he felt his vision blur.

Chen Xiao’s body vanished on the spot.

In the next second, he was lifted by the throat by Chen Xiao!

"Release the Family Head!"

"Let go of my dad!"

"If my grandpa loses a single hair, you’ll die no matter where you run!"

"..."

The people from the Li Family shouted and threatened Chen Xiao upon seeing Li Tianhong captured.

"Oh, really?" Chen Xiao expressionlessly punched Li Tianhong’s belly!

Li Tianhong immediately let out a painful groan, his eyes bulging like a dead fish, and blood gushed from his throat, as if he was about to die any second.

"Make those guys back off, or my next punch will blow his head off!"

"Then, I’ll just find another hostage."

Although he wasn’t afraid of those gunmen, Lu Rugao and Li Kani couldn’t withstand gunfire, so he could only use Li Tianhong as a hostage.

The Li Family members gritted their teeth but had to order the gunmen to step back!

This brat was simply reckless!

What else could they do?

Today’s birthday feast had been turned into such a mess, the Li Family’s face was utterly lost! If Li Tianhong really died at the feast, the Li Family would never hold their head up in Fragrant City again!

Seeing the Li Family compromise, Chen Xiao clutched Li Tianhong and strode towards the exit.

The shock in Lu Rugao and the others’ hearts was indescribable!

The esteemed Li Family Patriarch, like a local emperor in Fragrant City, unequally noble and arrogant...

Was actually being held by Chen Xiao like a dead dog?

If they hadn’t seen it with their own eyes, they wouldn’t dare to dream it!

"Still standing there? Move." Chen Xiao glanced at them.

The group snapped out of it and hurried to follow.

Today, coming here with Chen Xiao was indeed a close call, had they made the slightest mistake, they’d all have perished here!

But even if they dodged this time, could they escape the Li Family’s revenge?

Thinking of this, a hint of bitterness appeared on their faces.

Just as Chen Xiao was about to leave, a cold snort came from behind, "Young one, did you ask my opinion before treating the Li Family Master this way?"

Everyone present turned their eyes over.

The speaker was none other than the always silent Hongmen Xiangcheng’s Overall Leader, Duan Feilin!

Duan Feilin played with a teacup in his hand, speaking arrogantly, "I know you don’t dare to kill the Li Family Master. With so many people around you, if you kill him, you all die too!"

"You might scare others, but not this old man."

"I’ll give you five seconds to put down the Li Family Master, then cripple your own legs and crawl out. I can decide on behalf of the Li Family to spare your lives."

"Otherwise, I don’t mind seeing you all die here!"
