The Magnificent Son-in-law
Chapter 1320 - 1320: We Can Start Now
"Pfft! Cough, cough, cough..."
By the riverbank, two rather disheveled figures were supporting themselves on their knees, spitting out mouthfuls of water and coughing violently.
Between the two of them lay a buzz-cut man with a scruffy face and a noticeably bulging stomach.
"Quick, save him!" Xiao Feng pointed at Ye Kuto.
Xue Nuofu wiped his face and placed his hands on Ye Kuto's stomach.
"Pfft!"
Like a fountain, a jet of water spurted from Ye Kuto's mouth.
This repeated several times until nothing more came out, and then Xue Nuofu began performing CPR on Ye Kuto.
However, after a long while, Ye Kuto showed no signs of waking up.
"Can't wake him up, better send him to the hospital quickly," Xue Nuofu suggested.
Xiao Feng shook his head gravely, "I'm afraid it's too late. Give him artificial respiration quickly."
"A-artificial respiration?" Xue Nuofu's lips twitched twice, and he retorted angrily, "Why don't you give him artificial respiration?"
"I don't know how."
"Neither do I!"
They looked at each other, and the situation reached a deadlock.
Xiao Feng frowned and sized up Xue Nuofu.
This guy sure can't change his ways. How long had it been since the last reprimand, and already he's resisting authority? Is there a rebellious streak growing at the back of his head?
Of course, it's not entirely his fault; partially, it's because I've given too much freedom.
At this moment, Xue Nuofu felt pressure rising and even a bit of panic.
Both intuition and experience told him that defying Xiao Feng wouldn't result in anything good.
But, one glance at Ye Kuto's scruffy face...
Xue Nuofu suddenly felt a surge of courage, stood straighter, and looked Xiao Feng in the eye, as if four large words were written on his face - "Rather die than submit!"
And indeed, Xue Nuofu had steeled his heart.
This time, he would rather become a "slave of four families" than bow and admit defeat!
After a moment of stalemate, Xiao Feng pulled out two antitoxic pills and stuffed them into Ye Kuto's mouth.
It's uncertain if they would work; after all, these weren't some magic cure-all elixir, but in this situation, it was a desperate attempt.
Just then, the sound of footsteps appeared...
Xiao Feng and Xue Nuofu looked simultaneously in the direction of the sound, then froze in unison.
The newcomer was a young woman who looked about twenty, with flowing red hair cascading down her back like a waterfall.
She was wearing a red leather jacket, black skinny jeans, and red snow boots. Even her lipstick was red.
Looking at her face, her long, narrow phoenix eyes were bright and spirited, with handsome, well-defined features.
Overall, she had an aggressive beauty that no one could deny.
The only thing that seemed out of place with her appearance and outfit was... a lollipop in her mouth.
Xue Nuofu immediately reacted, questioning sharply, "That heavy truck, were you driving it?"
The woman had her hands in her pockets, nodded without much hesitation.
"You're from the Devil's Concentration Camp?" Xiao Feng squinted his eyes, confirming.
Though rationally speaking, the Devil's Concentration Camp shouldn't be the prime suspect, he decided to eliminate this possibility first.
"Snap!"
The woman bit the lollipop into pieces, crunching it, then spat out the stick, showing Xiao Feng a mocking smile:
"I thought you were so capable, but just a little impromptu trick forced you to jump into the river.
Never mind, since you didn't die, let's play a game.
If you can catch me, well... I'll let you hehehe..."
With the woman's "hehehe," Xiao Feng and Xue Nuofu's expressions gradually turned "black-black-black."
In the next moment, the woman turned and ran, her long legs alternating, each step covering more than two meters, moving at an incredible speed.
"Are you chasing, or am I?" Xue Nuofu asked.
Ye Kuto, now barely alive, couldn't be left alone, so one had to stay behind.
Xiao Feng quickly thought it over, then countered, "Can you release your bees?"
Xue Nuofu paused, then his eyes lit up, "How did I forget about that?"
Without waiting for Xiao Feng's command, he quickly took out a Christmas Rose, and after the three of them "bled," released the wasps from his wide sleeve.
Xiao Feng pointed at Ye Kuto and called out, "Carry him and follow her."
Xue Nuofu agreed without much hesitation. It was better to suffer some physical strain than to give artificial respiration.
As they moved, the woman also sensed something was off.
She stopped, closed her eyes, and listened carefully.
"Buzz buzz buzz..."
The woman suddenly turned around, looked up, and saw a swarm of wasps coming at her like a tidal wave.
"Oh my!" The woman widened her eyes, showing a bit of astonishment and panic.
She didn't dare linger any longer and bolted, regretting pausing.
Luckily, the onlookers were more interested in the heavy truck parked on the bridge; otherwise, it might have caused a commotion.
After crossing the road and following the riverbank for about twenty minutes, Xiao Feng finally heard the woman's voice of surrender.
"Fine, fine, I give up. As per the agreement, you can do whatever you want with me," the woman stopped, admitting defeat.
Do whatever we want?
Xiao Feng and Xue Nuofu glanced at each other and then looked away.
"Let's check on him first." Xiao Feng pointed at Ye Kuto.
Xue Nuofu nodded, set Ye Kuto down from his shoulder, checked his breath, and felt his carotid artery, replying, "He's still breathing."
"As long as he's breathing." Xiao Feng breathed a sigh of relief.
One must say, Ye Kuto's vitality was strong. Falling into the water unconscious and being carried on the shoulder for so long, if it were an average guy, they'd probably be dead by now.
But this cursing master still had some life in him; it's nothing short of a miracle.
Of course, joking aside, Xiao Feng was genuinely concerned about Ye Kuto's safety; otherwise, he wouldn't have checked on him first.
"Hey! I've already surrendered; can't you call off these wasps?" the woman complained.
She wasn't familiar with Xue Nuofu's methods but noticed the wasps targeted her and ignored Xiao Feng and the others, leading to the conclusion that the wasps were "manipulable."
Xue Nuofu looked at Xiao Feng, and seeing his nod, raised his arm.
The swarm, already enveloping the woman and slowly pressing down, seemed to receive an order and immediately stopped descending, swooping into the opened sleeve.
"Scared me to death, scared me to death!" The woman clutched her chest, looking relieved.
Xiao Feng stepped forward and said, "Your name, background, and the purpose of driving into us—explain those three things first."
"What's there to explain? I said if you caught me, I'd let you hehehe. I'm ready, go ahead and hehe," the woman said indignantly, still a bit defiant.
"..." Xiao Feng.
"..." Xue Nuofu.
Their faces turned black again, and they exchanged glances, seeing the confusion in each other's eyes.
Begin "hehe," did that mean the public's favorite pastime?
