Tang Ye said.
"She's my sister, I have to save her."
That bond of blood, Pan Jie, an outsider, naturally couldn't compare.
"Heh..."
Pan Jie sneered, looking at the dark muzzle of the gun.
"You just told me you loved me on the phone, and now you're going to kill me. You men are truly fickle." Su Dan Novel Network
Love?
To say there was no love would be a lie.
Once, this angelic woman had suddenly barged into his life.
Tang Xiaomin didn't want to deal with her, so she left it to Tang Ye to handle.
Every day he spent going out with Pan Jie, Tang Ye felt an unprecedented sense of ease, joy, and happiness.
In his naivety, he thought perhaps he could have a good outcome with her.
He had also acted impulsively for Pan Jie, bleeding and crying.
Alas, fate played tricks, and in the end, they couldn't be together.
The past could not be revisited; looking back now would only bring more trouble.
"Stop the nonsense, tell me Xiaomin's whereabouts, and your brother's plan. If you tell me, I won't make things difficult for you."
"Otherwise, I'll have no choice but to use you to get Xiaomin back."
"Haha..."
"Hahaha..."
Pan Jie suddenly burst into laughter, but there was no joy in it, only a profound sadness.
"Peter is forcing me to marry Elant for his own gain. He's willing to sacrifice my marriage and happiness."
"Do you think, given the sibling relationship between him and me, that even if you use me as a hostage, you can get Tang Xiaomin back?"
Not all sibling relationships were as good as theirs.
Pan Jie's words revealed too much information.
"You really do know. Xiaomin is indeed in your brother's hands. Speak, what is his conspiracy!"
Pan Jie suddenly came to her senses, realizing she had been tricked.
"Tang Ye, you actually tricked me!"
"Speak! What does Pan Peter want to do to Xiaomin! What is his conspiracy!" Tang Ye roared in anger.
As things stood, there was nothing left to hide.
Pan Jie revealed everything she knew.
"My brother is a tech fanatic. His entire life has been dedicated to research and development, which has earned him a lot of money and made him a super-rich man."
"But he was not satisfied with the happiness money brought, so he researched controlled nuclear fusion."
"However, after many years of research, he ended up in failure. He fell into self-doubt, wondering if it could truly be achieved. He even suspected that it wasn't a matter of science and turned his attention to theology."
"As for Tang Xiaomin, my brother learned that she was no ordinary person. So, he created a facade of a technology company with the aim of luring Yan Jue and Tang Xiaomin there, and then severely injuring them."
"He took Tang Xiaomin, so he must have transferred her to his secret base for experiments."
Tang Ye's hands trembled so much they were unsteady.
"You... actually..."
"That's right, I knew Tang Xiaomin wasn't an ordinary person."
"I also knew about my brother's technology company trap and his plan. I knew everything."
Pan Jie confessed, and Tang Ye was astonished.
"Since you knew your brother's plan targeting Xiaomin, why didn't you stop him, why didn't you say anything? You just watched Xiaomin fall into his trap!"
Inaction, perhaps, was also a form of wrongdoing.
Instead of being remorseful, Pan Jie seemed indignant.
"Are you blaming me? What right do you have to blame me?"
"When I traveled thousands of miles to Modu asking for her help, she didn't care about my life or death."
"After you knocked me out, she advised me to go back and marry Elant. She even lied to me, saying Elant was dying."
"I believed her, but after I was taken away, I found out Elant was in excellent health, showing no signs of dying at all."
"On our wedding night, if I hadn't poisoned his drink, I would probably already be giving Elant children by now."
"Yes, I didn't stop him, I did it on purpose. I was just a quiet bystander, what was so wrong about that?"
...
At this moment, Tang Ye was speechless when it came to Pan Jie.
Indeed, Xiaomin hadn't helped her back then.
Now, discussing who was right or wrong was meaningless.
The priority was to save Tang Xiaomin.
"The past is the past. Now Xiaomin is in your brother's hands, and I need you to tell me her whereabouts."
"Until Xiaomin is rescued, I apologize, but I will have to inconvenience you."
Tang Ye cautiously stepped forward, pulling off his tie and quickly twisting Pan Jie's hands behind her back with it.
"Come with me, behave, and you won't suffer."
Being taken hostage like this, Pan Jie looked indifferent.
"I'll say it again, using me to exchange for Tang Xiaomin is impossible."
"Whether it's possible or not, we'll have to try to find out."
