o No. 13 villa in Jingyuan Community. Then she carried Zhao Qingqing into her bedroom; as for Xia Tian, it was a tragic situation where he had to stay alone at home. Although he had the urge to sleep...Chapter 458: Impostor Driver
"...The number you are calling is out of service coverage. Please try again later..." Hearing the sweet voice from the receiver, Han Mu couldn't help but pause, and she tried several more times in a last-ditch effort, yet the result was still the same.
Why can't I get through to my husband's phone Han Mu found it hard to figure out why this happened, and her intuition told her that something wasn't quite right.
Jiao Xiaoqiao, who was in Jianghai City at this moment, heard the same sweet voice from the receiver: "The number you are calling is out of service coverage..."
"Miss, I have checked. Xia Tian's flight arrived on time with no problems whatsoever. You don't need to worry; he must already be in Beijing." Jiao Huang'er said this to Jiao Xiaoqiao at that moment.
Jiao Xiaoqiao frowned slightly: "Strange, why can't I get through to my husband's phone"
"Most likely, he’s out having fun with someone and turned off his phone," Qiao Feng'er never forgot to speak ill of Xia Tian.
Qiao Xiaoqiao shook her head but did not say anything further, with only a hint of worry in her heart.
At this moment, Xia Tian was sitting in a taxi. About half an hour ago, he had already gotten into the car, yet he still hadn’t reached his destination.
No. 1 Mulu Road—this was Xia Tian’s destination, which was also where the Li family resided. However, as to exactly where No. 1 Mulu Road was located, Mu Han’s information back then wasn't detailed enough. Perhaps it was because Mu Han hadn’t anticipated that Xia Tian would come to Beijing; in any case, regarding the Li family's address, there were only these five words. Even which district Mulu Road belonged to wasn't mentioned.
And now, Xia Tian couldn't possibly ask Mu Han for the precise location of No. 1 Mulu Road. He had indeed considered calling Little Fairy for information but, in reality, he did make a call. Unfortunately, something was preventing him from getting through to Little Fairy’s phone.
Fortunately, his luck wasn’t too bad; the taxi driver knew where No. 1 Mulu Road was located. For Xia Tian, a taxi driver was always like a guide, otherwise he wouldn't have needed to take a taxi at all.
However, now Xia Tian started to feel somewhat puzzled. Not only because it had already been half an hour and they still hadn’t arrived, but also because the car seemed to be heading towards increasingly remote areas.
Although Xia Tian had never been to Beijing before, he felt that the Li family shouldn't live in such a secluded place; after all, it was a large clan. They wouldn't actually have to move out to the outskirts of Beijing, would they
"Hey, why haven't we arrived yet" Xia Tian asked the driver.
"Are you going to Mu Zilu No. 1" the driver countered with a question.
"Of course!" Xia Tian said impatiently.
"Then you'll have to wait a bit longer, probably about fifteen more minutes. That place is quite remote," the driver explained. "Sir, let me tell you, it's your lucky day that I picked you up. Otherwise, there aren't many taxi drivers who know this place."
Hearing what the driver said, Xia Tian decided to wait for another ten or so minutes; he had no choice since he was completely unfamiliar with this area of the capital city.
The car continued driving, but after only about five minutes, it stopped.
"Have we arrived" Xia Tian asked. Looking around, he noticed that they were next to what seemed like an abandoned factory, in a dilapidated state with no sign of life nearby; there was certainly no indication of the presence of a prominent family here.
"Not so fast." The driver said as he opened the car door, "Excuse me, I really need to use the restroom. Please wait for a minute while I go inside. I'll be right back."
The driver got out of the car and ran toward the abandoned factory in a hurry.
"Hey, wait!" Xia Tian suddenly shouted and got out of the car.
"I'm really urgent. Just one minute... just one minute..." The driver said as he was running.
Xia Tian moved swiftly and appeared in front of the driver, blocking his path. Then he looked at the driver somewhat displeasedly: "Didn't you hear me when I told you to wait"
"Uh..." The driver's expression changed with surprise as Xia Tian suddenly appeared in front of him. He then smiled and said, "Sir, I really need to use the restroom. I drank too much water earlier..."
Xia Tian impatiently interrupted the driver: "Hey, do you know who I am I'm the world's number one divine doctor!"
The driver was taken aback: "Uh, sir, I really don't know..."
"Don't know and still dare to lie to me" Xia Tian was very unhappy. "Do you know that I hate liars the most"
"Sir, you misunderstood me. I didn't lie to you at all. I just went to the bathroom..." The driver appeared awkward but continued to smile.
"I already told you earlier that I'm the world's number one divine doctor, so I can tell that you're not actually trying to go to the bathroom!" Xia Tian glared at the driver. "If you don't want to die, take me to No. 1 Mu Zi Road right now!"
The driver’s expression changed again before he gave a sheepish laugh: "Well, sir, it's like this, I have a cigarette craving and wanted to smoke one, but the company rules prohibit smoking in the car..."
“Are you really trying to die” Xia Tian was already thinking about getting rid of this guy. Not only did he dare lie to him, but he now needed to get to Li’s place urgently. This desolate area probably wouldn’t see a taxi for half a day, and if he got rid of this guy, it would be hard to find someone else to take him there.
"Well... okay then, I'll just hold out... I'm going to the car now..." The driver looked helpless as he turned towards his vehicle. But before he could even take two steps, a murderous intent appeared on his face and quickly turned around with a gun in hand.
"Bang bang!" The driver started shooting at Xia Tian as soon as summer began, without any hesitation.
Seeing that Xia Tian seemed to have no reaction, a trace of smugness flashed in the driver's eyes, along with a bit of disdain—this guy was nothing special. This time he had really done something significant.
However, his satisfaction quickly vanished because he suddenly realized that Xia Tian had disappeared from his sight, and almost at the same moment, he heard a voice beside him saying, "Since you truly want to die, I'll grant your wish!"
This was the last sound he heard in this world. Then he only felt excruciating pain in his head before losing consciousness completely.
Xia Tian disposed of the driver with a single punch. However, looking at the body on the ground made him somewhat depressed because he did not know where exactly he was or how to get to the Li family's place.
Just when he felt down, his sharp hearing picked up something again, so he turned around and looked into the abandoned factory.
"Hey, you dumbass hiding inside, come out!" Xia Tian grumbled irritably.e looking for an outsider to be their leader"Whether you believe it or not is up to you; after all, you're not my wife." Xia Tian looked unconcerned. It didn’t matter if others didn’t believe him as l...
