"How did you get here?" Xia Yanlu asked.
Qin Yi, still focused on treating Han Sanwan, ignored her.
Han Xin's eyes blazed upon seeing Xia Yanlu. "Xia Yanlu, you're ruthless! You're really going to let my dad die! He's your husband!"
"Hmph, he brought this upon himself!"
Xia Yanlu snorted and ordered the black-clad men who had followed her inside, "Make your move. Capture him!"
Although a considerable amount of time had passed since Han Sanwan was injured and he should have been beyond saving, she was aware of Qin Yi's medical skills. Xia Yanlu wanted to prevent Qin Yi from treating Han Sanwan, just in case.
"How dare you..."
Han Xin spread her arms, blocking the sofa.
A black-clad man shoved her aside, sending her stumbling to the floor.
Several black-clad men approached the sofa and reached out to grab Qin Yi.
At this moment, Qin Yi suddenly flicked his right palm, and several beams of white light shot out.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh.
"Ah..."
Several silver needles embedded themselves in the chests of the black-clad men. They staggered back, crying out in pain.
Then, they collapsed onto the ground, unable to move.
Seeing this, Xia Yanlu's eyes widened. She turned to leave.
Before she could take a step, a silver needle struck her left thigh, forcing her to her knees.
Having dealt with them, Qin Yi turned back, removed two silver needles from Han Sanwan, and exhaled.
"All done!"
Han Xin scrambled to her feet. "How's my dad?"
Xia Yanlu, kneeling on the ground and unable to move, was shocked.
However, at this moment, she forced herself to turn her head and look at Han Sanwan on the sofa. What she wanted more than anything was for Han Sanwan to be in critical condition, for Qin Yi to be unable to save him...
But as soon as this thought crossed her mind, she heard Qin Yi say, "He's fine now!"
As his words fell, Han Sanwan slowly opened his eyes.
Han Xin cried out with joy, "Dad!"
Seeing this, Xia Yanlu's mind exploded. Shock, fear, and terror filled her face.
She wanted to stand up and escape, but her left leg refused to obey her.
Han Sanwan opened his eyes and saw Han Xin. He sat up abruptly. "Xiao Xin, how are you? Are you alright?"
"Dad, I'm fine!"
Han Xin knelt by the sofa and clasped Han Sanwan's hand.
She felt his hands, which had been cold, now warm.
The anxiety in her heart finally eased. "Dad, we're safe now. The Jiang family won't trouble us anymore!"
"???"
"Ah..."
Han Sanwan was confused. Just as he was about to ask why, he heard Xia Yanlu let out an angry cry.
Xia Yanlu struggled, trying to stand up.
Han Sanwan looked over, his gaze instantly turning cold. "Xia Yanlu!"
Xia Yanlu shivered and stopped struggling. "San, Sanwan!"
She didn't dare to meet Han Sanwan's eyes.
Han Sanwan's eyes held infinite rage and hatred. "I always treated you and Tuo well, yet you mother and daughter wanted to kill me! Fine, fine!"
Earlier, as Qin Yi had been needling him, even though he hadn't opened his eyes, he had heard everything Xia Yanlu had done, how she had ordered the black-clad men to stop Qin Yi and prevent him from treating him!
"No, I didn't..."
Xia Yanlu glanced at her men, all lying on the ground, unable to move. In a panic, she still tried to stand up and flee.
Qin Yi said calmly, "Stop struggling. I've sealed the pressure points in your left leg. You won't be able to get up until I remove the needles!"
"No, I don't believe you!"
Xia Yanlu used all her strength to try and control her left leg to stand, but it was all in vain.
After a while, she finally gave up, kneeling there in panic. "You can't touch me! If you lay a finger on me today, Tuo will avenge me and won't let you go!"
"I'm telling you, Tuo has a very close relationship with Jiang Shichao. They are brothers!"
Hearing her threat, Qin Yi suddenly smiled. "Han Tuo avenging you? He's half-dead himself now and can barely save himself!"
"What do you mean???" Xia Yanlu asked.
Han Sanwan also looked confused and asked Han Xin, "Xiao Xin, didn't Han Tuo, that beast, capture you earlier and intend to hand you over to the Jiang family? What exactly happened?"
"Where is Han Tuo now?"
"Dad, after you fainted, they tied me up. Han Tuo was going to send me to the Jiang family, but at the Jiang family..."
Han Xin recounted everything that had happened at the Jiang family's residence.
As Han Sanwan listened, he unconsciously looked at Qin Yi, stunned.
Upon hearing this, Xia Yanlu shouted in disbelief, "Impossible, absolutely impossible! Han Xin, you're lying. What kind of power does the Jiang family have that they would be afraid of a former convict like him?"
She didn't want to believe it!
Because if it were true, Han Tuo would be finished!
However, despite saying she didn't believe it, Xia Yanlu immediately pulled out her phone and called Han Tuo.
Her left leg was immobile, but her hands could still move.
Qin Yi didn't stop her. He let her make the call.
The call connected quickly, but it wasn't Han Tuo's voice that came through the receiver, but Jiang Shichao's.
After Han Tuo was dragged away, his phone was confiscated by Jiang Shichao.
Xia Yanlu was stunned to hear Jiang Shichao's voice. Then she asked, "Young Master Jiang, why is it you? Where is Han Tuo?"
In Jiang Shichao's heart, he felt that both Xia Yanlu and Han Tuo were responsible for him having his legs broken and teeth knocked out by Qin Yi.
Therefore, he was furious with Han Tuo and also annoyed with Xia Yanlu. He replied directly, "Han Tuo is being held at our Jiang family now! If you want to save him, go find Master Qin. If Master Qin agrees, we'll release him!"
"If Master Qin disagrees, then..."
Xia Yanlu asked, confused, "Master Qin! Who is Master Qin?"
"Master Qin is Qin Yi!"
Jiang Shichao cursed angrily, "Damn it, it turns out you know nothing about Master Qin. You mother and son almost got me killed this time!"
"Xia Yanlu, let me tell you, you'd better pray that Master Qin agrees to let us go, or I'll kill Han Tuo!"
With that, the line went dead. The other party had hung up.
Xia Yanlu was struck by lightning. Her face turned pale, and she collapsed onto the ground.
Han Sanwan and Han Xin didn't understand what was happening, but Qin Yi, with his sharp hearing, had heard everything Jiang Shichao had said through the phone.
So, seeing Xia Yanlu's reaction, he sneered.
Xia Yanlu, unable to get up, turned around and knelt before Qin Yi, pleading, "Qin Yi, no, Master Qin, please talk to Jiang Shichao and ask him to release Han Tuo!"
