Back To The 80s: President's Doted Wife

Chapter 449: Chapter 449: Sowing Discord

Master Wei was thinking about how he could leave this place safely, while Ning Ge was considering how to pry the secrets from Master Wei’s mouth. Or, should he just knock out this bandit leader with a blunt weapon? Coerce him into talking using some means?

But would this tough guy talk?

Ning Ge was getting impatient.

With Master Wei in tow, they were sneaking about, and just as they were about to leave Aozi Bay, Ning Ge, with keen eyesight, spotted a jeep speeding towards them, screeching to a halt as someone jumped out of the car.

It was Qi Taiguo!

Damn, he arrives now!

Ning Ge’s thoughts raced as he pressed his hat brim lower, and suddenly said, ”Master Wei, you haven’t offended the military, have you?”

Master Wei’s heart skipped a beat: ”What?”

”Look,” Ning Ge pointed, his face full of panic, ”Master Wei, those are soldiers. Master Wei, are they coming for you? They’re not the police, they’re military.”

Master Wei followed the direction of his finger and indeed saw several soldiers running towards them with guns. He couldn’t help but curse under his breath: ”Zhang Zhongming, that bastard.”

Ning Ge, with sharp ears, caught the name Zhang Zhongming and flashed a look of recognition.

”Master Wei, why don’t you surrender?” Ning Ge feigned fear. ”They’ve got guns.”

”Bullshit!” Master Wei yelled, and upon seeing Ning Ge, an idea suddenly sparked in his head. He pulled out an old-style pistol from his waist and pointed it at Ning Ge: ”Tell me, did you bring them here?”

Ning Ge, holding his head, trembled: ”Master Wei, no, I really just wanted to tag along for a meal, who knew it would be a sinking ship...”

He bowed his head under Master Wei’s glare.

Master Wei was furious, a sinking ship, his ship!

”Master Wei, if I hadn’t just happened to see you leaving with Master Hong, why would I secretly follow you to this place?” Ning Ge added another line.

That was true, he was walking in Aozi Bay as arranged from above, but now, with the unexpected gunfire, the military, and Jin Hong dead, the rhythm clearly meant they intended to catch them all at once.

Was it really the intention from above, to silence them forever?

Damn, even if he died, he would not let them off easily.

”Move.” Master Wei pushed the gun against Ning Ge’s lower back.

But Ning Ge’s face turned bitter: ”Master Wei, I’m scared, my legs are weak.”

”Useless!” Master Wei squatted down, thinking about how to break out of this situation.

”Master Wei, if you’ve made some deal with them, why don’t you just hand it over? Buy your life with it,” Ning Ge ’kindly’ suggested.

”You green-headed duck know shit. They’re all old foxes; if I hand over the goods, it will only play right into their hands!” Master Wei said without a second thought.

So there was something indeed!

Ning Ge was pleased and continued to stir the pot: ”Then what are we going to do? Woo woo, I, I don’t want to die, I’m still young, I still want to marry Juanjuan! If I had known, I wouldn’t have come. It’s all a misunderstanding, I don’t know anything.”

Master Wei was already agitated, but listening to Ning Ge whining only intensified his irritation.

”Search over there!” Qi Taiguo’s voice grew closer.

”Report to the squad leader. There is a boat over here with food, but no people.”

”Report to the squad leader, there are two dead bodies here.”

”Report to the squad leader, here too!”

”Report to the squad leader, Zhao Wei’s whereabouts are not found.”

”Search, he must be nearby. Find him for me,” Qi Taiguo ordered with a stern face, his brow furrowed.

What was going on? Everyone was dead; had he arrived a step too late? Or had someone rescued them?

Qi Taiguo felt regret. If he had set up an ambush here earlier, would he have captured Zhao Wei?

The snow started to fall again, and the night grew even more profound.
