What friend was Zhao Xiaotang going to introduce again? The previous friend was just Xia Xue’s dance partner, and wasn’t impressive. A moment later, Zhang Yang arrived at Zhao Xiaotang’s room. He saw this so-called friend, and couldn’t help but tease, “Your friend looks quite strong.” Zhao Xiaotang forced a smile and said to Zhang Yang, “My friend is really into fitness.” The muscular woman stepped forward, extended her hand to Zhang Yang, and said, “Hello, my name is Li Yan. Nice to meet you.” Zhang Yang didn’t suspect anything, and was ready to extend his hand. But Zhao Xiaotang suddenly intervened between the two and said with a smile, “No need to be so formal, let’s sit down first.” Zhang Yang looked at Zhao Xiaotang in surprise, not understanding what she was up to this time. He could sense that Zhao Xiaotang was a bit wary of this woman. Li Yan glanced at Zhao Xiaotang with dissatisfaction, but still managed to smile and said, “It seems our Zhao Xiaotang really cares about you.” “You’re not allowed to interact with other women, not even close friends. She’s really stingy.” Zhang Yang ignored Li Yan’s comments and asked, “You said you had something to discuss with me. What is it? Let’s talk now; I still have to go to the venue later.” Zhao Xiaotang took out the pill in her hand, just directly took it out? Li Yan was startled by this scene, thinking that this stupid woman didn’t set the stage or make up an excuse. Zhang Yang looked curiously at Zhao Xiaotang and asked, “What is this?” Unexpectedly, Zhao Xiaotang replied directly, “I don’t know either. She gave it to me.” “She said that after you take it, you will belong to me.” Li Yan’s face suddenly changed dramatically, never imagining that Zhao Xiaotang would dare to openly betray her. “You’re courting death.” Li Yan suddenly attacked, with a knife somehow appearing in her hand. However, Zhang Yang reacted quickly, pulling Zhao Xiaotang into his arms and kicking forward. The knife in Li Yan’s hand was immediately kicked to the ground by Zhang Yang, and Zhao Xiaotang hurriedly shouted, “She’s with Guo Hailong, the one who kidnapped Xiao Man was her.” Zhang Yang was shocked, never expecting this woman to have such a background. Li Yan, having failed her attack, was furious and glared at Zhao Xiaotang. “Zhao Xiaotang, do you want to die? I told you, if you ruin my plans, I will kill your whole family.” Zhao Xiaotang said indifferently, “Go ahead if you dare. First of all, I’ve severed ties with my family.” “Without Zhang Yang, I would have been dead long ago. You think threatening someone who has died once isn’t ridiculous?” “Secondly, what do you think the Zhao Family is?” “In H Country, although the Zhao Family isn’t the top conglomerate, it’s still one of the best.” “With the influence of the Zhao Family, if you do this, you’ll be provoking an international war.” “Even if you’re from Dragon Country, Dragon Country won’t let you go.” “I want to see if you really have the guts to kill all the members of the Zhao Family.” Hearing Zhao Xiaotang say this, Li Yan’s muscular face was filled with anger. “Clever women are really annoying. It seems you’ve already decided to betray me.” “If that’s the case, there’s nothing more to say. I might not be able to kill so many people, but killing half is still possible.” However, the next second, Zhang Yang suddenly moved. “Since you’re here, do you think I’ll let you leave?” Li Yan’s face changed dramatically; she knew Zhang Yang’s power. The few Elders of Qingyi Sect and the Vice Sect Leader had been taken down by Zhang Yang before. She definitely wasn’t a match for Zhang Yang, so when Zhang Yang attacked, she immediately said, “If you dare to harm a single hair on me, your girlfriend will be in danger.” Zhang Yang sneered, showing no intention of stopping, and in an instant, he and Li Yan were embroiled in a fight. They started exchanging blows right there in the hotel room. Zhao Xiaotang watched the dazzling fight, never expecting that real-life combat could be as grand as scenes from a movie. Truly impressive, Zhao Xiaotang looked on in admiration. Not expecting this woman to be so formidable. But within moments, Zhang Yang had pinned her down to the ground. Zhang Yang tied the woman up and then grabbed the woman’s phone. He began searching for clues regarding Xiao Man, while the woman, though unable to move, still glared at Zhang Yang malevolently. “Do you think it’s over? Let me tell you, you’d better let me go, or your girlfriend will be in danger.” Zhang Yang slapped the woman across the face. “Shut up. I’m asking you, where is Xiao Man?” Zhang Yang had already checked the woman’s phone, but there was not a single clue. There were no contacts or apps in the phone. Clearly, this woman was prepared, leaving Zhang Yang frustrated. These people really would anger anyone to death. “Haha, aren’t you capable? Kill me if you dare, but know that if I don’t return by three o’clock, they will execute the hostage.” “I suppose you understand what it means to execute a hostage?” “Just wait and see, you’ll regret what you did today.” “You too, Zhao Xiaotang.” Sensing the woman’s arrogance, Zhang Yang wanted to continue his assault, but then Zhao Xiaotang said, “Zhang Yang, should we go see Guo Hailong?” “They are working together. Although my mother called me over today, it was to go to Guo Hailong’s villa.” “Guo Hailong was the one who, along with this woman, threatened me into trying to drug you.” Zhang Yang hesitated for a moment, then took the pill over and sniffed it. Unfortunately, even Zhang Yang couldn’t figure out what the pill did. In that case, perhaps having the woman take it would reveal their tricks. So Zhang Yang held the pill to the woman’s face, “Open your mouth and swallow it. Let me see what kind of trick you’ve got.” The woman finally showed a change in expression, knowing that once eaten, the pill would cause paralysis quickly, in just a dozen minutes. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have come with Zhao Xiaotang. The plan was to take Zhang Yang away after he was paralyzed by the pill. Unexpectedly, Zhao Xiaotang openly betrayed her, catching her off guard. “Zhang Yang, let’s talk this out. We don’t really need to escalate to this level.” Li Yan finally showed fear, her tone softened significantly.
