"Ah! Ah! Ah!" screams followed one after another.
Xu Yang and Yang Huilan watched the vicious pig being beaten like a sandbag by Wu Tian, their jaws nearly dropping to the ground in astonishment.
When Wu Tian stopped, the vicious pig was no longer recognizable.
He lay on the ground, his fat seemingly reduced by several pounds, completely unconscious.
After finishing with him, Wu Tian smiled at Xu Yang and asked, "It's your turn next. Are you ready?"
Xu Yang's face turned green with fear.
Without a second thought, he immediately knelt before Wu Tian and cried, "Wu Tian! I know I was wrong, I know I was wrong!"
"Please, I beg you, spare me. I don't want to be beaten. I'll never dare to do it again!"
Wu Tian's disgust for Xu Yang was even deeper than for the vicious pig.
After all, this was not the first time Xu Yang had done something so despicable.
His expression turned cold as he said, "Spare you?"
"Xu Yang, do you really think I'm some kind of great benefactor?"
"For a guy like you, I don't think killing you would be too much."
Xu Yang was terrified and began kowtowing to Wu Tian.
He pleaded, "Wu Tian, you can't blame me for this! It was him, he forced me to do it!"
"You know he's a big villain. What could I do when he ordered me to do this?"
"If I didn't, he would have beaten me to death!"
Saying this, Xu Yang kowtowed to Yang Huilan again, "Huilan, Huilan, we are husband and wife after all. You can't just stand by and watch!"
"Please speak up for me, I beg you, please speak up for me!"
Seeing the previously arrogant Xu Yang now speaking to her in such a manner, Yang Huilan felt disgusted.
Especially when she heard him mention "husband and wife," she felt a deep sense of revulsion.
She said coldly, "Don't beg me for mercy. I will never forgive you."
"For a scumbag like you, dying ten thousand times over wouldn't be enough!"
Wu Tian said, "You heard her, Ms. Yang won't forgive you, so there's nothing I can do."
Seeing Yang Huilan's refusal to help, Xu Yang's heart immediately filled with resentment.
He felt that as husband and wife, Yang Huilan should have saved him, and her refusal to do so made her less than human!
This emotion quickly turned into rage. He gritted his teeth and said, "You bitch, you won't save me today, will you? In that case, I'll take you down with me!"
After roaring this, he lunged directly at Yang Huilan in front of Wu Tian!
"Ah!" Yang Huilan hadn't expected Xu Yang to be so insane and let out a scream.
But Wu Tian quickly appeared in front of Yang Huilan.
He kicked Xu Yang directly in the stomach. Xu Yang was sent flying backward, smashing through the factory wall and falling from the second floor to the first.
Under such a blow, even if he wasn't dead, he was close to it.
"What an ungrateful fellow. I didn't kill you because I didn't want to dirty my hands!"
Wu Tian said coldly, then turned to Yang Huilan.
"Sister Lan, are you alright? Did they do anything to you?"
Yang Huilan recovered from her shock and shook her head, "Wu Tian, thank goodness you came in time. They didn't have a chance to do anything to me."
"Really?" Wu Tian breathed a sigh of relief. "That's good. If anything happened to you, I would feel very guilty."
Hearing Wu Tian's words, Yang Huilan's heart stirred.
She already had feelings for Wu Tian, and his words struck a chord in her heart. She realized she had fallen irrevocably in love with Wu Tian.
Afterward, Wu Tian untied Yang Huilan and then called the director of the Public Security Bureau, Zhou Mingxue, on the spot.
Zhou Mingxue personally led a team to handle the matter.
After giving their statements, it was already dark.
Wu Tian escorted Yang Huilan to her doorstep and said, "Sister Lan, since everything is resolved, I'll be going now."
Yang Huilan said, "Wu Tian, don't leave so quickly."
"You've helped me so much, and I haven't properly thanked you yet!"
Wu Tian smiled and said, "Sister Lan, you're being too formal. This is what I should do. I don't need any thanks. Goodbye."
But Yang Huilan insisted, "No, you must come to my place for a cup of tea before you go."
"If you don't, I'll be upset."
Wu Tian thought that just a cup of tea was no big deal.
So he nodded and said, "Alright, I'll come up."
They went inside, and Wu Tian sat on the sofa. Soon, Yang Huilan brought him a cup of hot tea.
Wu Tian took a sip and found it was Da Hong Pao, which tasted quite good.
"Wu Tian, I want to thank you again for today's events. You essentially saved my life!"
Yang Huilan said gratefully, "You have no idea how perverted they were. If you hadn't come, my life would have been ruined!"
Wu Tian smiled, "Sister Lan, I told you, this is what I should do."
"Don't worry, for what Xu Yang did, he won't be out for at least seven or eight years. No one will kidnap you again."
Yang Huilan nodded, and they fell silent for a moment.
Yang Huilan stole a glance at Wu Tian, then tentatively asked, "By the way, Wu Tian, there's something I want to ask you."
"Um, you and sister Tang Qi... how are things now?"
"Tang Qi?" Wu Tian looked confused. "How are things?"
Yang Huilan said, "Your relationship, you know. Aren't you a couple? So I wanted to ask, is your relationship going smoothly?"
Wu Tian was surprised. "No, Sister Lan, who told you that Tang Qi and I are a couple?"
"We're just good friends. We haven't reached the stage of being a couple yet!"
Wu Tian was telling the truth. Although he and Tang Qi had been intimate, neither of them had officially established a relationship, so calling them a couple would be inaccurate.
Yang Huilan was surprised. "Ah? You're not a couple? I thought you were dating based on your relationship!"
Wu Tian smiled, "Really? Then Sister Lan, you've truly misunderstood."
Wu Tian initially thought Yang Huilan was just asking casually.
But after a moment of silence, Yang Huilan said, "Wu Tian, please wait for me."
