Just then, the ring tone for an incoming call startled her. She looked up in a jolt and realized that it was Yin Shaojie's cell phone that was ringing.
"Young Master Jie, are you here yet? Don't stand me up, alright! There's many people here waiting for you!"
Yin Shaojie looked at the time and realized they were quite late. No wonder the guys were impatient.
"Okay, I'm on my way."
"Hurry up! We'll have another race first, and you'll be on time for the next one."
"Alright, see you then." Yin Shaojie hung up the phone, cast a sharp glance at An Zhixin and said, "Come on, take us to these people."
He knew that Mu Xiaoxiao was going to intervene, so he had no choice but to settle the matter quickly. If they were to call the police and wait for them to come, it would take ages.
An Zhixin looked at him stupefied. "You want to…"
You want to help me?
His eyes were completely emotionless as though he were looking at a stranger, and he said impatiently, "Quickly! I'm in a rush!"
How could An Zhixin still delude herself into thinking that he had feelings for her? Obviously, he would only help her because of Mu Xiaoxiao.
As she stared at Mu Xiaoxiao, her eyes were filled with envy but not resentment.
"Thank you…" she gratefully bowed and thanked them. Then she led them to the opposite side of the street, which was where she had came running from.
…
Meanwhile, in the room.
Wang Shiyu sat on the sofa in the room. There was a man with dyed blond hair tying her hands with a rope.
Perhaps it was because the rope was too tight but Wang Shiyu grumbled, "Gentler! Why are you being so forceful? You don't have to tie it so tightly. Just do one for show."
Beside them was a man with scene-styled hair, looking impatient as he said, "Little Yu, shall we just forget the tying? Anyways, I don't think that classmate of yours will dare to do anything. Why can't we just split the money when she returns with it? Why do we have to go through all this trouble!"
The blond-haired guy tied it sloppily and said, "We still have act like it, otherwise how are we gonna convince anyone? But Little Yu, are you sure that your classmate can get so much money? She doesn't look rich. What if she doesn't have that much money? All our hard work will be for nothing."
Wang Shiyu tested the tightness of the rope, and leaned back leisurely on the sofa, staring at them.
She said confidently, "Why would I lie to you? Of course, she has money! Didn't I tell you? She transferred to Shangde High. It's Shangde High, okay? You know, that school for the rich. All the students there are rich. Though I don't know who helped her, but she must have a financial backer. So she must have gotten some money from them."
She even thought 100,000 yuan was going easy on An Zhixin!
But it was alright. They could take it slow. This time, they would ask for 100,000 yuan to test just how much money An Zhixin had. Next time, they would do it again but with more.
Wang Shiyu schemed delightedly.
Hearing that, the two men felt relieved. The scene guy puffed his cigarette, his eyes narrowed as he enjoyed it. But upon thinking of the 100,000 yuan that he was going to get soon, he felt sick of the cheap cigarette he was smoking and he put it out at the ashtray.
He watched the door impatiently. "Your friend has been gone for quite a while, right? Why isn't she back yet? Could she have run away?"
Hearing that, the blond-haired guy asked worriedly. "Yeah, could she have abandoned you and run away, leaving you to die?"
