Chapter 533: Replacement of Hostage 1

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation  Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Ye Xiyuan’s every word and accusation felt like a dagger being thrust into her heart.

In the end, Li Qiaomeng couldn’t bear it any longer. She impulsively pulled out a knife and pressed it against Ye Xiyuan’s neck.

It was a rash act in the heat of the moment, and by the time she realized it, it was already too late. Even if she wanted to regret it now, there was no turning back.

So, after calming down, she had Ye Lengan called over. The primary reason for her current predicament was Ye Lengan.

“You called me here for this?” Ye Lengan shook her head indifferently. “If that’s the case, I don’t have time to continue this commotion.’

Hearing Ye Leng’an’s words, Li Qiaomeng became even more agitated. Her trembling hands left a red mark on Ye Xiyuan’s delicate neck, and soon, blood began to flow.

At this point, Ye Xiyuan was overwhelmed with panic and fear. Her face turned ashen, and her lips lost their color. She felt an icy chill throughout her body, and a sharp pain in her neck indicated that she had been cut. She dared not make any sudden moves, fearing that any misstep could lead to a fatal outcome.

She had fought hard for this second chance at life and valued it too much to lose it to someone like Li Qiaomeng.

Simultaneously, a faint regret crept in. If only she had known about Li

Qiaomengs madness, she wouldn’t have provoked her. She had gone to great lengths to help Li Qiaomeng leave the detention center, spending a million for nothing, only to end up being held hostage.

If she had known, she would have let Li Qiaomeng stay in the detention

center, letting her accumulate a criminal record and avoiding this predicament.

“Don’t get worked up.” One of the police officers tried to soothe Li Qiaomeng. “Tell us your conditions; we’ll do our best to meet them, but we must ensure the safety of the hostage.”

Meanwhile, not far away, snipers were already in position.

However, whether intentional or not, Li Qiaomengs current location made it challenging for snipers to act without risking harm to the hostage. Hence, the snipers were rendered ineffective.

“Ye Lengan, you wretch. It’s all your fault,” Li Qiaomeng raged. “You want to ruin me, don’t you?”

“No one wants to ruin you except yourself,” Ye Lengan coldly retorted. “Your current situation is a result of your own greed, unrelated to anyone else.”

Hearing Ye Leng’an’s words, the hatred and madness in Li Qiaomengs eyes deepened. “What right do you have to judge me? You’re just lucky to be born into a good family.”

As she spoke, Li Qiaomeng clamped Ye Xiyuan’s neck with one hand, waving the knife in the other. The frenzied look on her face suggested she might sever Ye Xiyuan’s neck at any moment, making the onlookers tense.

“Could you be more diplomatic?” A police officer nearby addressed Ye Lengan. “Li Qiaomeng is agitated. We want to ensure the hostage’s safety. We didn’t bring you here for any specific action; it’s just at Li Qiaomengs request.”

Ye Leng’an acknowledged with a nod and turned to Li Qiaomeng, saying, “You wanted me to come. I’m here. What do you want to say? Speak quickly.”

“Come here!” Li Qiaomengs lips curled into a crazy smile. “As long as you come over, I’ll let Ye Xiyuan go.”

Though she harbored resentment towards Ye Xiyuan for the humiliation, her greater animosity was directed at Ye Lengan.

She felt the world was incredibly unfair. Despite the minimal age difference, their life circumstances were worlds apart..
