“Boss Fang, Rongrong’s phone is unreachable, and so is Xiang Yu’s,” Shi Jian said nervously in the Jianghu Bar.
“Did you catch those troublemakers outside?” Fang Kuohai demanded sternly.
“We caught them all; the brothers are interrogating them.
I believe we’ll have results soon,” Shi Jian replied.
“Hmm, beat them harshly; they’ll break eventually.
You, gather some people and come out with me; this is definitely the third brother’s doing,” Fang Kuohai said as he headed downstairs.
Shi Jain followed with several people behind him.
In Fang Yuan Logistics’ warehouse, Xiang Yu was negotiating terms with Zhu Qingyuan.
“What?
Double the salary?
Mr.
Zhu, you can’t be serious; do you know how much I’m earning now?” Xiang Yu said feigning surprise.
“You heard right.
If you’re willing to work for me, I’ll give you thirty thousand a month,” Zhu Qingyuan said quickly upon seeing Xiang Yu’s hesitant expression.
“Xiang Yu, you beast, you’re not human; how could you do this?” Fang Rong yelled, pointing at Xiang Yu.
“Miss Fang, people aim for higher places, and water flows to lower ones; you have to understand me,” Xiang Yu glanced at Zhu Qingyuan and continued, “Mr.
Zhu, you won’t trick me, will you?”
“Do I, Zhu Qingyuan, look like that kind of person?
My word is my bond,” Zhu Qingyuan assured.
Seeing how easily Xiang Yu was tempted, he couldn’t help but sneer internally; he would never trust such a man.
Today Xiang Yu could betray Fang Kuohai for thirty thousand, tomorrow he might betray him, Zhu Qingyuan.
Zhu Qingyuan’s sole purpose was to create discord between Fang Kuohai and Xiang Yu.
Once Xiang Yu left Fang Kuohai, taking him down would be a piece of cake, and Fang Kuohai would also lose a major asset; it was killing two birds with one stone.
“Fine, as long as you promise me that money, I’m in,” Xiang Yu chuckled.
Just then, someone whispered a few words in Zhu Qingyuan’s ear.
Zhu Qingyuan looked at Xiang Yu and said, “But right now, I can’t trust you.
Bring them, tie up Miss Fang and this guy.”
“Hey, I thought we had a deal; why tie me up?” Xiang Yu asked with a look of surprise.
“I’m just testing your loyalty.
If you’re unwilling, you are free to leave,” Zhu Qingyuan said, sure that Xiang Yu, wanting to follow him, would not walk away.
“Alright, alright, if that’s how it is, then bring it on,” Xiang Yu declared, posing nobly.
At that moment, two men approached Xiang Yu slowly with ropes and finally pounced on him, tying him up.
“Don’t push me; I can walk,” Fang Rong glared venomously at Xiang Yu as the two were pushed into a small room at the back of the warehouse, then tied face to face to prevent Xiang Yu from escaping.
“You beasts, let me go, let me go, Xiang Yu you beast, what are you laughing at?” Fang Rong shouted face-to-face with Xiang Yu.
The others didn’t bother with so much.
They left two people to watch the door while the rest returned to the inside of the warehouse.
“Miss Fang, don’t get so close to me.” Xiang Yu chuckled, his eyes fixed intently on Fang Rong’s face.
Fang Rong, who had never been so close to a man, suddenly felt her face turn beet red.
She was originally holding back a bellyful of anger, but now she couldn’t speak it out.
“Miss Fang, I have a feeling,” Xiang Yu mused, “Why is your chest so soft?”
Upon hearing Xiang Yu say this, like a scoundrel, Fang Rong became furious.
Not caring that she was tied up, she bit down hard on Xiang Yu’s shoulder, causing him to inhale sharply with pain.
Unsatisfied, she tried to kick Xiang Yu, but her legs were tied and the kick threw them both off balance, toppling backward.
Xiang Yu’s body toppled forward too.
If they had really fallen straight down, it might have injured Fang Rong’s head badly.
In the moment they lost balance, Xiang Yu forcefully twisted his body to shift Fang Rong on top of him.
They fell with a loud “bang”, and Fang Rong found herself lying on Xiang Yu’s chest, their lips unexpectedly meeting…
“Ah, you beast, you’re bullying me.” Fang Rong felt humiliated and burst into tears.
Then, she noticed Xiang Yu lying motionlessly with his eyes closed and blood streaming from the back of his head.
“Ah, Xiang Yu, Xiang Yu, are you alright?” Fang Rong saw the blood on Xiang Yu’s head and was suddenly scared, tears streaming uncontrollably.
“I’m sorry, it’s all my fault, please don’t die.” Although she knew Xiang Yu was a small-time rogue, she would be guilt-ridden for life if he truly died for her.
If it hadn’t been for her need to save herself, he wouldn’t have ended up like this, and she broke into uncontrollable sobs again.
“I say, Miss Fang, have you cried enough?” Xiang Yu said with a wicked smile.
“So you didn’t die, that’s great, that’s great…” Fang Rong finally gathered her composure.
“Your lips are quite soft, almost bewitched me.” Xiang Yu said dreamily.
Seeing Xiang Yu looking like that but still thinking about it, Fang Rong rolled her eyes at him and didn’t continue scolding him.
“Alright, no more messing around, we should go.” After Xiang Yu spoke, he suddenly strained against the ropes and they snapped with a pop.
He had been hiding a small knife in his hand all along.
Such a level of kidnapping meant nothing to him.
“You had a…” Fang Rong’s eyes went wide, somewhat incredulously.
Xiang Yu quickly gestured for her to be quiet.
He touched the back of his head, felt nothing serious, and then called out, “Hey, you two brothers outside, come in for a sec, I have something to say.”
“What is it…” The two men outside, knowing Xiang Yu could become their brother, walked in unguarded, but as soon as they entered, Xiang Yu knocked them out with a “bang bang”. freēwēbηovel.c૦m
“What is it, I wanted to beat you.
You two little brats dared to tie me up.” After saying that, Xiang Yu kicked them a couple more times, then turned to Fang Rong and asked, “Do you want to kick them too?”
Fang Rong just shook her head without saying a word, her eyes on Xiang Yu.
“Since you’re not kicking, I’ll kick a few more times.” Xiang Yu kicked them again and then pulled Fang Rong towards the exit.
They left through the back door and to their surprise, their car was parked there, keys still in the ignition.
It seemed like their captors had been too nervous to take them.
The moment they got into the car and started it, they heard shouting from the warehouse ahead.
However, ignoring everything else, they drove toward the front.
All the way, Fang Rong just stared at Xiang Yu with a complicated expression, silent as if looking at a stranger, yet also like looking at her lover.
“What’s the matter, you’re not thinking of assaulting me, are you?
Let me tell you, I’m not that kind of person.” Xiang Yu said innocently.
