Chapter 254: Wang Haoran’s Plan

After hearing about Su Yan’s kidnapping, Xu Liang felt it was his chance.

This time, everyone, including the Su family, was misled by the kidnappers into thinking Su Yan was taken to the northern outskirts of T City. However, in reality, she was in the southern outskirts.

Only Long Ao saw through the misleading information left by the kidnappers.

Xu Liang didn’t know how Long Ao figured it out. In the book “Urban Crooked Dragon King,” there was only one sentence:

“While Su Yaoguo was anxiously leading people to the northern outskirts, Long Ao suddenly frowned, sensing something was wrong—

‘They aren’t in the northern outskirts… They should be in the southern outskirts!’

Thinking of this, Long Ao immediately separated from the search team and rushed to the abandoned factory in the southern outskirts with all his might!”

When Xu Liang read this, he was speechless.

The lazy author wanted to show Long Ao as smart but didn’t bother to give a reason. He just glossed over it with that one sentence!

Moreover, it was absurd that after realizing the mistake, Long Ao didn’t inform anyone else and just ran off on his own!

But now… Xu Liang knew too!

And he knew even earlier than Long Ao!

Xu Liang couldn’t help but remember the beautiful face of the heroine, Su Yan…

Uh… Wang Haoran seemed very worried this time… Hopefully, it wasn’t another “Shu Yan,” “Su Yan,” or “Su Yan” kind of mix-up…

Xu Liang decided to investigate first.

If Su Yan was indeed kidnapped, he would act immediately and rescue her before Long Ao could!

After all, this heroic rescue was a key plot point for the heroine to fall for the hero!

If he could intercept it…

By then, he would be holding Long Ao’s beloved woman to spite him!

Of course, he could also irritate Wang Haoran, who was openly two-timing!

Although the plot had deviated somewhat, the existence of the plot correction force meant that Xu Liang was still ready to intercept the plot tonight at the abandoned factory!

The kidnappers only had a few broken guns.

Moreover, having read the plot, he knew their positions!

By then, he only needed to secretly rescue the heroine and leave the kidnappers for Long Ao to deal with…

Then, when Long Ao arrived after exhausting all efforts and missing a breakthrough opportunity, only to find the person already rescued by someone else…

He would be furious!

Xu Liang also understood that his current strength was no match for Long Ao, so he had no intention of ambushing him.

He planned to use the heroine to anger Long Ao step by step while leveraging the Chen family as a shield.

This way, he could gradually approach and surpass Long Ao with the help of the “Survival System”!

Hearing Xu Liang’s inner thoughts, the system, seeing its host determined to work hard, was very supportive.

〈That’s right!〉

〈With this system’s help, a mere protagonist like Long Ao is nothing to worry about!〉

***

Soon, it was nighttime.

“It’s really Su Yan this time!”

Having worked hard to obtain “reliable information,” Xu Liang excitedly drove towards the abandoned factory in the southern outskirts of T City.

To save time, he endured his pain and rushed there with all his might.

Finally, he saw the abandoned building standing eerily in the dark.

Recalling the details of Long Ao’s rescue in the plot, he sneaked in.

Darkness, silence, only the sound of insects around.

Holding his breath, Xu Liang tiptoed towards the room where Su Yan was held.

But as soon as he entered, he suddenly heard light footsteps at the door.

“!”

It should be the kidnappers!

Xu Liang wanted to rush over and knock out the intruder, but as soon as he moved, he realized this person was stronger!

Being slapped to the ground, Xu Liang was in disbelief!

“How is this possible?! The strongest kidnapper should only be at the mid-stage of Mingjin (refined strength)!”

“If it weren’t for their guns, I, at the early stage of Anjin (hidden strength), could crush them!”

While Xu Liang was stunned, the voice of the intruder spoke.

“Tell me the whereabouts of the girl you kidnapped, and I’ll spare your life!”

“……？！！”

Hearing this familiar and feared voice from his dreams, Xu Liang couldn’t help but blurt out.

“Long Ao?!”

“Hmm?”

Hearing someone call his name, Long Ao was also surprised.

He looked closely. “Xu Liang?”

After taking revenge, Long Ao could now face Xu Liang calmly.

“What are you doing here? Could it be… you’re involved in Miss Su Yan’s kidnapping?”

“No! I’m here to save her too!”

Xu Liang patted his butt and stood up.

He was puzzled, how did Long Ao arrive so quickly?

And after searching for so long, besides Long Ao, there was no other sign of people!

Weren’t there supposed to be seven or eight kidnappers?

At this moment, Long Ao was just as puzzled.

Could it be that his sixth sense, which had never failed before, was wrong this time… and the kidnappers were actually at the northern outskirts where Su Yaoguo and the others went?

It seemed likely… after searching for so long, this place seemed deserted.

Thinking of this, Long Ao prepared to call Xu Liang to leave.

In this quiet, deserted place, Long Ao felt a strange sense of kinship with Xu Liang.

And Xu Liang felt the same.

However, knowing the plot, he decided to search a bit more.

Yet he didn’t know that although Su Yan was indeed here, there were no kidnappers at all.

At this moment, beside Su Yan, there was only Wang Haoran.

The two of them were snuggled together, gazing at the starry sky.

“Yan’er, guess how many people came?”

“Um… I don’t know.”

Su Yan shook her head, then leaned against Wang Haoran’s chest.

“It’s two people!”

Wang Haoran smiled and held Su Yan close.

“They want to come and rescue you.

“But they didn’t expect this to be a trap!”
