The Magnificent Son-in-law
Chapter 1168 - 1168: No Way Out
After a long silence, Xiao Feng felt that this guy in front of him probably misunderstood something.
However, he had no intention of explaining.
Because considering the current situation, the other party is not qualified to demand any explanations from him.
As for misunderstandings, they are harmless; won't cause any real loss. Just let them misunderstand as much as they want. The deeper the misunderstanding, the harder it is for his disguise to be uncovered.
Having made up his mind, Xiao Feng didn't say a word and pulled down the collar to reveal the tattoo in its entirety.
Upon seeing the tattoo, Xiao Feng inexplicably felt a sense of familiarity, as if he'd seen it somewhere before.
Feeling increasingly uneasy, Eagle saw the person in front of him staring dumbfounded at the tattoo below his neck, and immediately said:
"If you know what this tattoo represents, then let me go obediently; otherwise..."
Before the threat could be finished, Xiao Feng impatiently interrupted: "Sorry, just felt it's familiar, can't really tell what it represents."
"Blood Nightmare, you've heard of it, right?" Eagle sneered, showing a proud expression.
Xiao Feng suddenly realized, no wonder it seemed familiar, it was the emblem of Blood Nightmare.
"You're from Blood Nightmare?"
Eagle nodded, proudly saying: "My nickname is Eagle, you can ask around. Our Blood Nightmare is known for its solidarity.
If you dare to make a move against me, it's like stirring a hornet's nest!"
Xiao Feng restrained the urge to laugh out loud and asked: "Solidarity all the way until breaking up?"
"You..." Eagle was at a loss for words.
His original intention was to have Xiao Feng recognize Blood Nightmare without knowing about its dissolution.
That way, even if the opponent won't let him go, at least they'll have some reservations, afraid to "mess with" him.
But now it seems that trying to impress the opponent with Blood Nightmare was doomed to fail.
Xiao Feng pondered for a moment, saying: "I have some connections with your boss, if you're sensible, I might consider sparing you a way out, if not sensible..."
He didn't continue the sentence, just sneered contemptuously.
In fact, he was indeed considering Lin Zhiyan and Lin Jiaxuan's... Well, Lin Jiaxuan aside.
Considering Lin Zhiyan's face, was why he was so lenient with this Eagle.
Of course, that was the extent of it. If the opponent is not sensible, then he can't be blamed for being ruthless.
After all, there's a saying that goes a person leaves, and the tea cools.
It's like changing workplaces, unless the previous one was exceptionally good, rarely does one still praise how great the old unit was after moving to a new one.
"Why should I believe your words?" Eagle asked.
"Believe it or not." Xiao Feng shrugged indifferently, saying: "Let's talk business, since Wang Tingwei sent you, you must have a way to contact her, right?"
"Naturally."
"Good, contact Wang Tingwei, find a way for me to meet her, if you can't, you'll die!" Xiao Feng said coldly.
Eagle was silent for a while, then nodded: "I'll do my utmost, but you need to let me go quickly, within half an hour, if I don't reach the rendezvous point, my companions will assume I've met with an accident.
If that happens, don't expect me to contact Wang Tingwei."
"I can let you go, but... do you know how to untie a dead knot?"
"..." Eagle.
You need the person who tied the knot to untie it, haven't you heard?
You tied the dead knot, and now you ask whether I can untie it?
...
After struggling for a long time, Xiao Feng finally untied the dead knot he tied himself.
Eagle, flexing his wrist, asked suspiciously: "You just let me go like this, aren't you afraid I won't come back?"
Just after he spoke, Xiao Feng slapped his thigh loudly and said: "I realized I almost missed an important step, thanks for the reminder. I happen to have some poison here.
Don't worry, as long as you come back on time, I'll definitely give you the antidote."
"..." Eagle.
Looking at the pitch-black pill in front of him, he truly wished he could slap his own face hard, swinging repeatedly to deliver dozens of big slaps, while cursing his own foul mouth!
Of course, he also thought that Xiao Feng said that mostly to disgust him.
However... what if it's true?
What if the other party really forgets to poison him?
Just as he was thinking, his vision suddenly blurred.
Eagle's mouth was covered by Xiao Feng's hand, and he felt something enter his mouth, melting without chewing and going down his throat into his stomach.
Confirming the poison was ingested by the opponent, Xiao Feng pulled back his hand, wiped it on the ground disdainfully, and said:
"The rest is up to you, find a way to make contact with Wang Tingwei, that's your problem. I only care about results.
By the way, the poison takes effect in three days, meaning starting now, your life is on a countdown.
If within seventy-two hours, you don't take the antidote, there's only one dead end."
Having said this, Xiao Feng turned and left.
"Wait!" Eagle quickly shouted: "At least give me a way to contact you."
"Just jot down my number." Xiao Feng directly gave his secondary card's phone number, then turned to leave.
However, Eagle called him back again: "Wait!"
Xiao Feng impatiently said: "What now?"
"I just want to confirm if it's reachable." Eagle replied humbly.
As soon as he spoke, his phone rang, Xiao Feng took out his phone, showed the screen outside, and said grumpily: "Satisfied now?"
"Satisfied." Eagle replied quietly, quickly threading the shoelaces on his boots.
After lacing his boots, he heard Xiao Feng speak again: "Oh right, I just remembered you can try this later, or even now, try to induce vomiting.
If you can vomit something black that looks like blood but isn't blood, it means you've vomited out the poison.
I promise you, as long as you manage to vomit it out, I won't poison you a second time, I'll keep my word!"
Eagle was instantly disheartened, shaking his head repeatedly showing his reluctance.
But in reality, he did consider this idea, using vomiting to expel the poison.
Even if it couldn't be completely expelled, he'd at least be able to remove some of it, perhaps eliminating the need for an antidote.
Yet, ruthless reality told him: This road... is not passable!
...
On the road to Third Master's house, Xiao Feng walked slowly.
Although he saw a glimmer of hope in finding Wang Tingwei, he still couldn't be optimistic.
Because he doesn't know how many pawns like Tang Mingbo are controlled by the person behind the scenes.
If every time it's just a feint, in the eyes of the person secretly orchestrating things, wouldn't he be just a lackey, being toyed with?
