"I believe you have the ans. But why should I trust that you’ll just hand it over obediently?" Wang Jiu looked at her with a cruel smile, "Don’t think I’ll easily trust you just because you say a few words. Even Boss Guan, such a shrewd woman, got played by you guys, let alone ?"
"So what do you want then? I’m willing to give you money, but you’re too scared to take it! You say I’ve cut off your money source, can’t it be solved now that I’m making ands and offering compensation?" Knowing that Wang Jiu’s weakness was money, Lin Qiushu decided it was ti to exploit this vulnerability.
"I worry you’ll pull a fast one. You, your friends, you’re all damn reincarnations of monkeys, aren’t you? So cunning! Since I can’t outplay you, I must leave myself an out, a margin to maneuver," said Wang Jiu with a laugh.
"Fine. You can leave yourself so leeway. But, what I want to tell you is, I’ll give you the money, as long as you let return to my normal life," Lin Qiushu pleaded with all her might for a chance at life.
"Fine. I think you’ve got a good idea. When there’s such an easy path available, why the hell would I take the one that’s life-threatening?" said Wang Jiu as he pulled up his pants, "Co, since you’re about to beco my new financier, I should treat you better."
Just as Lin Qiushu felt a sense of relief, she saw Wang Jiu rummage through a hidden corner of the decrepit house to retrieve a backpack.
He tossed the backpack at Lin Qiushu’s feet, opened it, and took out two things—an injection syringe and a vial of sothing.
He cracked open the vial and drew half a syringe: "Co on. Try this. It’s sothing you’d never expect!"
Having lived overseas for many years, Lin Qiushu imdiately knew what Wang Jiu was holding and fear and resistance erged in her eyes: "You don’t need to go this far, I will do what I’ve promised you... really..."
"I don’t believe you!" Wang Jiu said as he grabbed her arm fiercely, "This isn’t just to harm you. I’m taking you into a wonderful paradise!"
"No! I don’t—!!"
........................
For three consecutive days, there was no news of Lin Qiushu, and An Hao was completely unable to sit still anymore.
Lin Qiushu’s grandmother and mother spent three days with red and swollen eyes; every second felt like an eternity of agony for them, as if a century had gone by.
The consequences of a girl being taken away by a bad guy for three days are easily imaginable.
Frightened, Lin Qiushu’s grandmother was rushed to a hospital, lying on the bed, crying incessantly.
The circumstances from half a world away must not repeat themselves; she was too old to endure this ordeal any longer.
Upon learning of Lin Qiushu’s grandmother falling ill, An Hao bought so nutritional supplents and went to the hospital to comfort the old lady, then stepped out of the ward.
But as fate would have it, he bumped into Yan Ye just coming down from the floor above, reeking of a strong nicotine sll.
"You’ve started smoking?" An Hao grabbed his arm imdiately.
"Just a bit annoyed. Needed a cigarette to calm my nerves," Yan Ye said irritably, scratching his scalp, "How is it? Any news?"
An Hao shook his head: "Nothing for now. Qin Jian has already sent out a reconnaissance platoon in coordination with the police."
These warriors were all volunteering to help during their rest ti.
Yan Ye clenched his fists so tightly they creaked, squeezing out a sentence between his teeth: "I’ll dissect that bastard myself!"
