n

nOriginally, Shi Tian wanted to taunt Gu Qingchen, but it didn’t seem to be effective.

n

nLooking at Gu Qingchen’s appearance, she wasn’t scared at all.

n

nWait a minute.

n

nWho was the man sitting next to her?

n

n“I told you to bring Gu Qingchen here alone, why did you bring another man! You don’t want to get pay, is it?”

n

nShi Tian was a typical villain who was easily inflated in an instant.

n

nHe was different from before. In the past, he was a coward. Now, he was the one in charge. He was very proud of himself.

n

nXiang Yang’s expression immediately turned ugly. With a cold face, he said, “Boss Shi, are you going to renege on your word?”

n

nShi Tian subconsciously took a few steps back. Seeing that Xiang Yang had no intention of beating him up, he puffed out his beer belly and said, “After we’re done, I will give you the money.”

n

nThen, Shi Tian no longer looked at Xiang Yang. Instead, he walked in front of Gu Qingchen with a solemn face. “Is my account book with you?”

n

n“Hehe, your account book? Why is it with me?”

n

nGu Qingchen smiled lightly, showing no fear of Shi Tian.

n

nShi Tian looked at the smiling Gu Qingchen and flew into rage. He had already kidnapped her, yet she was still smiling.

n

nDid she not know what kind of situation she was in!

n

n“You guys, tie her up. Gu Qingchen, you will be tied up here until you give me the account book. Humph, don’t blame me for being ruthless. I have many tricks up my sleeve to deal with you!”

n

nShi Tian had an evil smile on his face as he looked at Gu Qingchen contemptuously. In his opinion, even if Gu Qingchen looked very calm now, she was still kidnapped after all. How could she not be afraid?

n

nShe was just pretending to be calm.

n

nThat day at the stone gambling place, Zhou Xiang actually hit him. Gu Qingchen also kicked his precious daughter. In addition, the five million dollars that he had just received had disappeared without a trace. He had been holding back his anger and wanted to deal with Gu Qingchen.

n

nUnexpectedly, Liu Ying actually came to his door and scolded him. He only found out from Liu Ying that the account book that he had lost had actually fallen into Gu Qingchen’s hands.

n

nFor so many days, he had not been able to eat or sleep well. All he could think of was what to do.

n

nIf not for his daughter Shi Wei’s words waking him up, he did not know what he to do with Gu Qingchen.

n

nHis daughter was right. As long as he captured Gu Qingchen and tortured her, she would tell him everything.

n

nEven if Gu Qingchen did not say anything, he would be more ruthless. He would just get rid of her and dump her body. Since she was already gone, no one could threaten him with the account book.

n

nIf Gu Qingchen was tactful, she would have handed over his account book earlier. If she was not tactful, then he could only take the last option.

n

nIf he had no other choice, he did not want to kill someone with his hands.

n

nBut if it really came to a critical moment, he would rather Gu Qingchen die in his hands than let himself be destroyed by Gu Qingchen’s hands.

n

nGu Qingchen stared at Shi Tian and saw through Shi Tian’s thoughts. Her eyes darkened and her brows raised slightly. She narrowed her eyes and revealed a viscous gaze.

n

nVery good!

n

nShi Tian even had the thought of killing her. She had really underestimated him.

n

n“Did your men bring guns?”

n

nHe thought that Gu Qingchen would be scared and hand over the account book after being threatened. However, he did not expect that she would suddenly ask such a question.

n

n“Of course not!”

n

nShi Tian was just a small businessman. Even if he had hired some thugs and kidnappers, these people were just ordinary hooligans. The best weapons that they carried were just some knifes. How could they have the means to buy guns.

n

nShi Tian almost blurted out subconsciously. After he finished speaking, he realized that he was no imposing at all. He then added, “How can I use a gun to deal with a little girl like you? Do you see? This is a sharp knife. If you don’t hand the account book over, I will have someone use this knife to cut your face dozens of times. Let’s see how long you can preserve.”

n

nThen, he looked at Xiang Yang and the others and ordered, “Capture her and tie her to the pillar!”

n

nXiang Yang was stunned. Wen Qing and the others were the same. They all looked at Xiang Yang and waited for him to make a decision. However, their eyes were filled with unwillingness.

n

nThis Shi Tian was too despicable. He captured the young lady and even wanted to cut her face.

n

nAlthough they were small hooligans and did not have much ability, they really could not do such unmoral thing.

n

n“Boss Shi, you only hired us to bring her here. You did not say that you would disfigure her.”

n

nNaturally, Xiang Yang could not listen to Shi Tian’s orders. This was a matter of principle.

n

nShi Tian was stunned. He did not expect Xiang Yang to not cooperate at this time. Then, he thought of something and used his ugly face to say, “Hmph, you just want more money. I have plenty of money. I will give you an additional 50,000. The few of you, capture her and tie her up!”

n

nWithout Xiang Yang’s nod, none of his friends moved. Shi Tian was a little annoyed.

n

n“What do you mean? I’m giving you money to do the job for me. Do you still want the money or not?”

n

nXiang Yang frowned angrily and said, “We’re only responsible for capturing them. We don’t care about anything else. Give me the 50,000 you promised us. We are done here.”

n

nXiang Yang could tell that Shi Tian did not just want to scare Gu Qingchen. He might even want to silence her. He did not want to get into any more trouble.

n

nKidnapping and murder were two different things.

n

n“You done? I’m afraid it’s not up to you to decide.”

n

nShi Tian naturally could not let Xiang Yang leave like this. What if they went to the police?

n

n“Boss Shi, don’t force us. We have done our job, and we like to get pay now. Do you want to go back on your word? Fine, just ask my brothers first!”

n

nAs soon as Xiang Yang finished speaking, a few of his brothers stood there and stared fiercely at Shi Tian. Shi Tian was so scared that his legs were trembling.

n

nThis was Shi Tian, a coward who bullied the weak and feared the strong.

n

n“You… Don’t do anything reckless. You want money? I’ll give it to you. But you have to promise that you forgot what happened today. You didn’t see anything, got it?”

n

nShi Tian finally compromised. He took out 50,000 from his bag and threw it to Xiang Yang. Xiang Yang and the rest took the money. When they turned around, they glanced at Gu Qingchen. After a moment of hesitation, they turned their backs and left.

n

nAfter Xiang Yang and the rest left, there were only Gu Qingchen, Rong Yu, Shi Tian, and the few people that Shi Tian brought with him.

n

nThese few people completely obeyed Shi Tian’s orders. Shi Tian gave the order and these few people rushed towards Gu Qingchen.

n

nShi Tian, on the other hand, stood at the side with his arms crossed over his chest. He spread his legs and one of his feet was shaking.

n

nSeeing that the few men were about to surround Gu Qingchen, he narrowed his small eyes and was ready to watch a good show.

n

nShi Tian’s mouth was wide open, and his smile was disgusting.

n

nUnfortunately, the smile on his face was quickly replaced by shock. There was even a hint of panic.

n

nThis… How was this possible!

n

nHis eyes must be playing tricks on him, or this world must be a fantasy!

n

nIt must be… it must be an illusion.
