The Devil Who Devoured Snow White Chapter 224
Advertisement
The Xia family has always had connections with the country's military for generations. The children in the family had always been gifted with abilities used for war. At present, Xia Liqin's grandfather was still one of the Military Generals. Even his nieces and nephews on his grandfather's side were now working with the military. Only Xia Liqin was exempted because of his father.
Xia Liqin may have low stamina but just like his father, Xia Sinian, and his aunt, Xia Meilin, he was gifted with accuracy and precision whenever he handled a gun. He was able to hone his shooting skills further thanks to his stepfather, Lu Xian Yu.
Two hours ago, before he had arrived at the restaurant, he was in his place and as usual, he was in front of his computer, playing games. He had a lollipop in his mouth. His left hand's fingers were tapping on some certain keys on the keyboard while he constantly moved his mouse on the side.
"You received a message." A deep android-like voice of a man was heard. It was another one of his mother's creations. He was another multifunctional assistant, an advanced AI that only listened to him. "It's from young madam."
"Read it."
"Qinqing, we'll be picking up your nephew today at the airport. Do you want to come?"
[Shut down! You have been killed!] The game announced on the monitor.
Xia Liqin's brows met as he frowned deeply. It was not because of his character dying but it was because of the message Sebby read.
"I have a nephew?" It was then that he suddenly recalled Little Peanut. He had almost forgotten that he had a nephew.
As much as he wanted to come just so he could spend time with his sister, he was reminded of that scumbag of a husband of hers. "No, tell her that I'm busy."

"As you wished."
Xia Liqin continued on with the game he was playing until he had won the round. He checked the time, it was already evening and he didn't have his dinner yet. He stood up and left his room. He went downstairs and went to the kitchen to grab something to eat but as he entered, he saw Wei Sianqi, placing the food she prepared on the table.
"Oh! Mr. Xia, you're just right in time for dinner!" She was smiling so happily at him.
Xia Liqin couldn't understand how she could just smile every time he saw her. Wasn't she getting tired of it? Whenever he went out of his room and bumped into her, she had always been so energetic. He couldn't help but get tired for her sake instead. "Where's the chef?"
"He said that he's not feeling well so he'll be taking a leave for a week," she replied as she pulled her seat then sat.
"Huh." It was a first. Chef Hao had been working for his family since he was young and the only times he used his leaves was whenever he was sick. He would get sick once or twice a year so… Xia Liqin was quite surprised to learn that he got sick again for the third time.
Minutes after they began eating, Wei Sianqi's phone rang. She didn't mind answering her phone in his presence so Xia Liqin was able to listen to her talk to the person on her phone.
He could see the change in Wei Sianqi's face after a few seconds. She became pale, her eyes widened. "Alright… I'll try to contact him."
After the call ended, Xia Liqin watched her from his position as she tried to call another person. He noticed her panic, her hands were trembling because of the urgency of what she had received.

"He's not answering." She mumbled.
"What's wrong?"
"Mr. Yong and Jiejie! They are in danger!" She exclaimed as she stood up.
Clang!
The metal chopsticks that Xia Liqin was holding fell on the ground after he heard her words. "What do you mean?"
"There's no time to explain! We have to go now and save them, Mr. Xia!"
And so, because of what Wei Sianqi said, Xia Liqin stood and went to get his car keys.
Wei Sianqi followed him to the huge garage where ten different cars were lined up. She was astonished by the sight before her.
"Get in." Xia Liqin's voice snapped her out. He was now inside of his fastest car, a yellow Bugatti Veyron sports car.
"A-Ah, yes!" It was no time to admire the cars in his garage so she hopped in the car and told him the place.
Xia Liqin was speeding on the streets, driving even though the traffic lights turned red. He didn't care if the police came after him. His sister was in danger and saving her was the only thing in his mind at that moment.
As they arrived at the place, they noticed the restaurant's windows were covered. Something was wrong, he could feel it. He grew restless at the thought of his sister. He grabbed a gun from under his seat. All his cars had guns in them just in case of emergency.
"Wait here."
"No! I want to go with you!"
Xia Liqin shot his murderous glare at her. "You will only drag me down so wait here."
Despite Wei Sianqi's protest, she couldn't help but give up since she knew that he was right. In the end, she had no choice but to sit inside as she watched him get out. Xia Liqin used the back door, an emergency exit that led to the restaurant's kitchen.
Meanwhile, Wei Sianqi, who was waiting in the car, couldn't sit still at all. It was then that she noticed Yong Liwei's car in the parking lot. From what she knew, Yong Liwei should always have at least one bodyguard with him. And so, she decided to get out of the car and instead, walked towards the other car.
"Ha!" She gasped out loud when she saw a body, laying on the ground beside the car with a stab on his stomach. There was a crushed phone beside him. As if someone intentionally did it to stop him from contacting anyone.
"Nnngh…" He groaned in pain. He squinted his eyes open to look at her. "W-Wei… Sianqi…" he coughed out blood.
"Brother Spider!"
