Mr Gu’s First Doting Marriage

Chapter 388: Chapter 389: Master Gao’s Bead

The string of beads scattered on the ground were the bodhi beads that Master Gao had just given to Xia Yangyang today.

When Brother Hou attacked with his knife just now, he accidentally broke the string holding the beads together, now they were spread all over the ground.

Brother Hou’s mouth was trembling.

The gangsters around him had lost their souls in fear. “Brother Hou, this seems to be Master Gao’s phoenix eye bodhi. This string contains a

“heaven-reaching” jade bead, engraved with Master Gao’s seal. No one else can or dares to imitate this. This girl has Master Gao’s string bead, what do we do, Brother Hou? We’re in big trouble.”

Brother Hou himself was terrified and shouted at the crowd in trembling voice: “Quickly, find all the beads for me, 16 in total, not one should be missing.”

Then, everyone kneeled on the ground to start looking for the bodhi beads.

Xia Yangyang, already exhausted, thought she would not escape this ordeal.

But unexpectedly, everyone suddenly changed their demeanor, crawling around on the ground looking for something.

Huang Mao was also extremely anxious.

He crawled over to Xia Yangyang and kowtowed three times harshly.

Huang Mao looked at Xia Yangyang, his eyes filled with fear. “Miss Xia, I know I was wrong. I shouldn’t have offended you. Please forgive me. If you’re still angry, feel free to hit me, any way you want.”

Xia Yangyang was utterly perplexed.

Huang Mao grabbed her hand and was about to slap his own face with it.

Xia Yangyang didn’t understand what was happening, but when her hand hit her wound again, she drew a sharp breath from the pain.

Huang Mao quickly let go of her hand.

Then, he started slapping his own face: “I’m sorry, Miss Xia, I’m sorry, please forgive me. I’m a bastard. I deserve to be punished.”

With a continuous smack, smack, smack, Huang Mao kept slapping his own face.

The other gangsters, seeing Huang Mao’s actions, followed suit, kneeling in a circle and slapping their own faces.

The sight was bizarrely eerie.

Xia Yangyang was completely baffled.

Xia Yangyang stood up, although she didn’t understand why these people were acting crazy.

But she knew she needed to leave quickly.

Huang Mao hurriedly followed Xia Yangyang before attempting to leave.

And then he stuffed a string of beads into Xia Yangyang’s hand. “Miss Xia, your bodhi beads. Please spare us, we really know we were wrong.”

After speaking, Huang Mao started slapping his own face again in front of Xia Yangyang.

Xia Yangyang felt as if he was possessed or something, she quickly took her beads and ran away.

Finally, she made it to the mainland and saw a taxi.

Looking at the dazzling lights of the city, Xia Yangyang finally sighed relief.

She took a taxi straight to the hotel.

She met Shen Manbing who had just returned to the hotel.

Shen Manbing looked at Xia Yangyang, noticing her disheveled hair and overall disarray.

Upon closer inspection, she noticed that her sleeves were soaked and were dripping blood.

Shen Manbing was frightened and grabbed Xia Yangyang’s hand. “What happened? Why are you covered in blood?”

Without further ado, she took Xia Yangyang to the hospital.

Having been frightened, Xia Yangyang felt as if she had just survived a disaster after leaving the park.

She was so focused on returning to the hotel that she completely forgot about the wound from the knife attack.

She even forgot about the pain.

At the hospital, a surgeon tended to her wound.

The wound was quite deep, so bandages were applied on top of it.

Xia Yangyang just sat there blankly.

She felt as if what happened was just a nightmare, a terrible nightmare.

Thankfully, she was awake now.

Shen Manbing was extremely worried and distressed. Seeing Xia Yangyang’s frightened face made her feel both anxious and worried.. “Yangyang, what on earth happened? How did you end up like this?”
