Chapter 396 Shoot Chu Tong
When Ling Tianyi and Xia Xiaoluo arrived at the entrance to Fenghuang Village, Chu Tong had been surrounded by many people. The most noticeable person among them was Chu Wei, he was enraged. He was totally disappointed with his younger brother.
“Brother, stop abusing me. It’s useless. I will never change my mind, no matter how you abuse me.” Chu Tong was still holding Taotao with a small dagger. Although he didn’t want to hurt Taotao at all, Chu Wei and other people were all frightened, because they were afraid that Taotao would be hurt.
Seeing that Ling Tianyi was coming, all the people made way for him, allowing Ling Tianyi and Xia Xiaoluo to walk to Chu Tong.
“Chu Tong, you… let Taotao go!” Xia Xiaoluo was anxious, she looked very haggard.
Chu Tong loved Xia Xiaoluo very much, but he couldn’t do what Xia Xiaoluo asked. Chu Tong looked at Ling Tianyi. Knowing what Chu Tong was thinking about, Ling Tianyi stared at him coldly, “Tell me what you want! Let my son go! What do you want on earth?”
When Chu Tong was about to say something, Ling Tianyi added, “Think your requirement over before you tell me. I won’t allow others to bully me. Therefore, if your requirement goes too far, I don’t know what will happen to you!”
“Ling Tianyi, your son is in my hands now, so do you think you have any right to swagger before me? Unless…” Chu Tong sneered and continued saying, “Unless you don’t care about your son’s life! In that case, you can swagger before me as you like, but I won’t grantee that I can control my temper well. Humph! If I become angry, I will use the dagger to cut your son’s throat.”
Staring at Chu Tong, Ling Tianyi was furious as well. But Taotao was in Chu Tong’s hands. As Chu Tong said, Ling Tianyi had no right to swagger before Chu Tong.
Xia Xiaoluo became anxious, so she cried and shouted at Chu Tong, “Chu Tong, I have nothing against you! Why do you treat me like this? Taotao is my son as well as my life. Why do you do that? Why do you hurt Taotao? Do you want me to die?”
Chu Tong looked at Xia Xiaoluo, he seemed distressed on her. He frowned continuously, but he could say nothing.
“Chu Tong, we were good friends before, so I beg you to let Taotao go. Let my son go. Please, I beg you, I beg you…” Xia Xiaoluo kept begging Chu Tong, because she didn’t want anything bad to happen to Taotao or Ling Tianyi. What was more, she didn’t want Chu Tong get involved deeper and deeper.
“Xiaoluo, I’m sorry. I… I didn’t mean to hurt you.” Chu Tong bit his lips, but he didn’t let Taotao go. He didn’t throw the dagger in his hands away either.
Knowing that Chu Tong was vicious, Ling Tianyi was clear that Chu Tong wouldn’t let Taotao go no matter how Xia Xiaoluo begged him. Now that Chu Tong wanted to make a deal with him, Ling Tianyi didn’t want to waste the time.
“Well, Chu Tong, tell me your requirements!” Ling Tianyi stared at Chu Tong.
“OK!” Chu Tong said with a smile, “Ling Tianyi, my requirement is simple, but I’m afraid that you won’t agree .”
“Cut it out. Just tell me what do you want on earth?” Ling Tianyi continued to ask. He didn’t want to waste the time because it was at night. What was more, Taotao didn’t wear enough clothes, so he was afraid that Taotao would catch a cold.
“I hope that you can exchange your son’s life with your own life. Are you willing to do it?” Chu Tong burst into laughter after he finished.
“Chu Tong, you bastard! Why are you so vicious? I warn you, you have to let Taotao go without putting forward any requirements. Or you are not my brother anymore. I will send you into the jail and even I will kill you personally!” Chu Wei roared. He knew that Chu Tong would ask for something unreasonable, but Chu Tong’s requirement was really beyond Chu Wei’s expectation, because Chu Tong wanted Ling Tianyi to die to save Taotao.
“These years, you have helped Ling Tianyi all the time, but you never gave me a hand. You don’t want to regard me as your brother, I don’t want to regard you as my brother either!” Chu Tong roared.
Chu Wei was his only relative in the world now, but Chu Tong said those words deliberately. Knowing that he would die today, Chu Tong said something merciless because he didn’t want Chu Wei be heartbroken for him.
“Ask the sniper to get ready!” The police arrived, they started to make arrangements as well.
Chu Tong wasn’t a professional killer, so he wasn’t at an ideal location. Therefore, the sniper could kill him easily with only one shot, it was not so difficult.
“You… you… you are so stubborn!” Chu Wei was furious, but he had no way to deal with it.
Ling Tianxue pulled Chu Wei aside, “Don’t be anxious! We can make it.”
“Tianxue, I want to save not only Taotao but also Chu Tong as well. I want to keep him alive. He is my only younger brother. I was so busy every day, I didn’t teach him well, so he became who he is now.” Chu Wei sighed.
“I know. I know your feeling.” Ling Tianxue held Chu Wei’s arms in order to give him some warmth.
Ling Tianxue was anxious as well. On the one hand, Taotao was her favorite nephew; on the other hand, Chu Tong was the younger brother of her lover. Therefore, she was really in a dilemma.
“Ling Tianyi, it has been a long time. Why don’t you commit suicide now? If you die, I won’t hurt Taotao. On the contrary, I will try my best to protect Taotao and look after him. I will also help him to grow up happily.” Chu Tong said.
“Chu Tong, your requirement is too unreasonable. If you want someone to exchange my son’s life, I will do it!” Xia Xiaoluo said, walking to Chu Tong step by step, “Kill me and let my son go.”
Ling Tianyi pulled Xia Xiaoluo back at once. He wouldn’t allow anyone to hurt Xia Xiaoluo even though he would die. He would never forgive himself if Xia Xiaoluo or Taotao got hurt in the accident.
“No, Xiaoluo, don’t get hurt.” Xia Youfeng said, he was so anxious, “Chu Tong, if you must kill someone, just kill me!”
Xia Youfeng was very calm because he was not afraid of death at all. In his opinion, if he could save Taotao at the cost of his own life, he would make up for his mistakes and it would be worthy of it.
“Xia Youfeng, you are not qualified!” Chu Tong roared.
“I only want Ling Tianyi’s life! Other people’s death was useless! It’s useless for others to die!” Chu Tong said ferociously.
“OK! If you want my life, just come to kill me!” Ling Tianyi said in an aggressive manner. He knew that the police had made the arrangement, so what he had to do was to delay the time.
“Ling Tianyi, commit suicide now!” Chu Tong said, and then he threw another dagger to Ling Tianyi, “If you have no tools, just use this dagger. It’s sharp.”
Chu Tong made up his mind to make troubles. He even decided to stop Xia Xiaoluo from marrying Ling Tianyi at the cost of his own life. So he brought many weapons with him. After his gun was taken away, he still had two knives.
Ling Tianyi picked the dagger up, he weighed it in his hands and touched the blade, “It’s a nice dagger!”
“Cut it out. you commit suicide and I will let your son go!” Chu Tong said, “I can guarantee that I will look after Taotao well for you. As for Xiaoluo, I love her, so I will protect her forever.”
“Darling, don’t!” Xia Xiaoluo caught Ling Tianyi’s hands, “Don’t listen to him. I can’t lose Taotao, but I can’t lose you either! You are the most important people to me. I would rather die if any of you get hurt.”
At this time, Taotao moved a little, and then he opened his eyes slowly.
“Who are you? Let me go!” Taotao pushed Chu Tong. Chu Tong was shocked, because he was afraid that Taotao would be hurt due to the knife. If Taotao was hurt, Xia Xiaoluo would hate him. He only wanted to force Ling Tianyi to die, he didn’t mean to hurt Taotao.
“Taotao…” Xia Xiaoluo was afraid that Taotao would move freely and he would be hurt by the knife.
Hearing the voice of Xia Xiaoluo, Taotao couldn’t suppress his sadness or tears anymore. He burst into tears, “Mommy, mommy…, I want my mommy!”
Seeing that the lovely boy in his arms was so poor, Chu Tong didn’t know what to do. He was reluctant to see that Taotao was so sad, because he was Xia Xiaoluo’s son.
“Don’t cry, don’t cry!” Chu Tong was in a panic, and he started to shiver all over his body.
“Bang!”
With the gunshot, Chu Tong fell down on the ground. At his last breath, he didn’t hurt Taotao. Instead, he protected Taotao.
“Chu Tong…” Chu Wei was stunned. His younger brother died in his blood in front of him.
The police rushed there and carried Taotao who was frightened. And then, Taotao was handed to Xia Xiaoluo. Xia Xiaoluo was also stunned, because Chu Tong was shot to death by a sniper.
After a long time, Taotao burst into tears again, “Mommy… mommy…, Taotao is frightened…”
“It’s okay now. Taotao, it’s okay!” Xia Xiaoluo carried Taotao in her arms and walked away from the blood. Children couldn’t be frightened, but Taotao had experienced too many frightening things today.
Ling Tianyi followed Xia Xiaoluo and ordered someone to drive a car there, “Xiaoluo, let’s send Taotao to the hospital at once. He needs a thorough examination.”
Xia Xiaoluo nodded. She was still shocked, but she couldn’t be so frightened, she could not think too much. She must look after her son with her whole heart.
He Meishu, Ling Desheng and other elders of the Ouyang family just arrived. Ling Tianyi had no time to say much, so he only said, “We have saved Taotao and he needs to go to the hospital now!”
Ling Tianyi took Xia Xiaoluo and Taotao to the hospital after he finished.
People who arrived there late didn’t know how Taotao was, so some elders got on their car again and followed the car of Ling Tianyi.
“Taotao, it’s okay now. Mommy is accompanying you, mommy will protect you.” Xia Xiaoluo held Taotao in her arms, keeping comforting Taotao’s mood.
Ling Tianyi took some wet tissues, trying to wipe the blood on Taotao’s face. It wasn’t Taotao’s blood. It was the blood of Chu Tong. There was a lot of blood on Taotao’s face and body.
“Daddy, mommy, I know you will come to save me.” Taotao said, “Some people called the woman who kidnapped me ‘Jingru’. She hit me. My face hurts and it seems to be swollen. Daddy, please catch the evil woman and revenge for me!”
“Don’t worry, Taotao, daddy will revenge for you. Daddy made a mistake because I didn’t protect you well. You have suffered a lot. Don’t worry. Daddy will make the best arrangements to guarantee your safety.” Ling Tianyi said. He felt guilty. He planned to buy a monitoring watch for Taotao. However, he forgot it because he had been busy with the wedding. He regretted very much after the accident. Fortunately, Taotao was saved, or he would never forgive himself even though he killed himself.
