Chapter 858: What Goes Around Comes Around
Editor: Henyee Translations
Huo Xiuyuan followed the directions from Jiang Weiyang and watched as the speedboat and successfully came near the cruise ship. Huo Yichen saw a huge cruise ship standing on the sea, as if it was silently waiting for him to arrive.
Looking at the ship that appeared in the distance, Sofia, who was only standing on the bow of the ship, immediately revealed a satisfied and sweet smile on her face.
Wasn’t the prince who was about to marry the princess here?
“Bring them over.” Sofia turned her head casually and said to Huo Xiuyuan, who was waiting behind her.
Huo Xiuyuan nodded and didn’t say anything. He turned around and walked towards Murong Qiao and Jiang Weiyang.
Meanwhile, Jiang Weiyang’s dizzy state after being knocked out also gradually eased. She woke up groggily after more than ten minutes, but she didn’t seem to realize her condition. She shook her head and looked around in confusion.
Murong Qiao was awake from the beginning to the end. At this moment, seeing that Jiang Weiyang was showing signs of waking up, she didn’t say anything and only sat at the side to wait and see.
Compared to Jiang Weiyang, who was casually thrown to the ground beside her, Murong Qiao felt much better. At the very least, there was a chair for her to sit on. At this moment, her body was not too stiff.
“Wu—”
When Jiang Weiyang finally woke up and her thoughts became slightly clearer, she realized the soreness on the back of her neck and what had happened before she fainted.
She looked around and finally saw that she was sitting beside Murong Qiao. She immediately frowned and screamed.
That voice was so sharp that it hurt Murong Qiao’s ears. Moreover, she was not in a good state at the moment, and she couldn’t stand these stimulations. She frowned and looked at Jiang Weiyang beside her in disgust.
“Can you not shout so loudly?”
Murong Qiao looked at her and said, then looked in the direction of the door.
She couldn’t escape now, and she could only wait and see what the other party wanted to do.
After Jiang Weiyang screamed, she moved in disbelief. Then, she realized that she was tied up. She began to try to break free and twisted her body with all her might, wanting to escape from the rope.
However, no matter how unprofessional Huo Xiuyuan was, he wouldn’t let her break free just like that.
Moreover, the rope was tied in a dead knot in certain parts. It was fine if she didn’t move, but when Jiang Weiyang moved, the rope was wound even tighter, making it impossible for her to escape. She could only waste her strength in vain.
“What’s wrong? You know how to struggle now. Weren’t you very smug just now?”
In any case, she had nothing to do now. Seeing Jiang Weiyang add to her fun here, Murong Qiao was happy to say a few words.
However, the actual situation was indeed that she felt increasingly dizzy. If she didn’t say a few more words and forced her body to perk up, she would probably fall unconscious again and not know what the situation was.
From the looks of it, the situation on the ship seemed to have escaped Jiang Weiyang’s control. At this moment, Murong Qiao couldn’t figure out the situation outside, so she could only bide her time and conserve her best state. She would wait for the other party to attack further and find a suitable opportunity to see if she could escape.
“How would I know?”
Jiang Weiyang cursed in frustration. It was rare for her to lose her image as a rich young lady. After realizing that she couldn’t break free, she sat there in dejection.
She looked at Murong Qiao resentfully, especially when she felt the chill of the cold ground under her butt. When it burrowed into her body, Jiang Weiyang moved around uncomfortably. However, wherever she moved, she would come into contact with more of the cold ground. In the end, she simply gave up moving and rested well.
She recalled the pain on the back of her neck before she fainted.
However, no matter how she thought about it, she couldn’t get a reasonable answer. In the end, she could only look at Murong Qiao reluctantly and ask the other party, “You should have seen it just now. Who knocked me out?”
“Why should I tell you when you’re asking in this tone?” Murong Qiao looked at Jiang Weiyang. At this moment, she didn’t seem to realize how bad her situation was and couldn’t help but laugh mockingly.
Jiang Weiyang was about to fly into a rage out of humiliation. “In any case, we’re both the same now. So what if you tell me?”
“What goes around comes around, Eldest Miss Jiang.” Murong Qiao laughed and didn’t say anything else.
Seeing that she didn’t answer, Jiang Weiyang also became angry. She shut her mouth and sat there, but after a while, her body felt uncomfortable everywhere.
After all, she had never suffered such grievances since she was young. Moreover, various uncomfortable symptoms of her body catching a cold began to appear. Even Jiang Weiyang felt her throat heat up and itch.
The space was only so big, and there were only the two of them. After an unknown period of time, Jiang Weiyang couldn’t help but speak first, as if she had compromised.
“So, who hit me?”
She was obsessed with getting this answer.
“Huo Xiuyuan.” Murong Qiao didn’t really keep her hanging. Fortunately, the other party’s tone was not as arrogant as before, so she told her directly.
When she heard Huo Xiuyuan’s name, Jiang Weiyang’s first reaction was to deny it. However, when she thought of Huo Xiuyuan’s previous style and the purpose of his recent return to the country, she was speechless.
If it was the other party, it made sense.
But what was his motive for doing this?
Thinking of the other party suddenly attacking her, Jiang Weiyang was puzzled.
In the darkness, Murong Qiao seemed to be able to see through the confusion on the other party’s face and spoke again.
“Maybe he got a better deal than you promised.”
Or perhaps he had been threatened.
Murong Qiao knew that Huo Xiuyuan was afraid of death. Previously, after Huo Yichen obtained the Huo Corporation, the other party had hidden overseas.
And this time, he had returned in a domineering manner. It was unknown where he had obtained his power.
Thinking of the distribution and scope of the Jiang family’s power, although it was not as big as the Murong Family and the Huo Family, it was still very terrifying.
However, even so, Huo Xiuyuan still attacked. Either the other party had given him enough benefits and he could take such a risk to hurt Jiang Weiyang, or he had been threatened.
“Other than you, is there anyone else on the ship?” Murong Qiao asked her.
Jiang Weiyang was a little unwilling to talk, but in light of the current situation, she still answered. “Other than me, there’s only Huo Xiuyuan and Huo Ya.”
As for the man who had kidnapped Murong Qiao in the beginning, Jiang Weiyang had already asked him to leave in the speedboat Huo Xiuyuan had brought.
“Impossible.” Murong Qiao subconsciously denied the two names she mentioned.
Huo Ya’s status in the Huo Family was negligible. She was simply an invisible existence. It was impossible for Huo Xiuyuan to join forces with the other party and turn on Jiang Weiyang.
There must be something deeper that made him turn against Jiang Weiyang.
“There are only a few people on the ship.” Jiang Weiyang pouted.
At this moment, she still couldn’t accept that she and Murong Qiao had fallen into the same situation. She felt a little pain from being tied up by the rope, and she couldn’t help but feel aggrieved.
