Chapter 299 - 295: A Glimmer of Hope
In an abandoned warehouse in East Sea City, three middle-aged men sat together, speaking words that gradually became more agitated.
"No way, I absolutely disagree." Guan Long waved his hand, giving off a vibe that there was no room for negotiation, "Zhou Lin, I agreed to join for the sake of making money, not to avenge your idiot son. I’ve now become penniless and have abandoned my former life. I don’t want to become a fugitive, running for my life everywhere. If you want to kill that woman, go ahead, as long as you put thirty million cash in front of me. You can do whatever you want with her, I won’t say a word."
The middle-aged man named Zhou Lin lowered his head, expressionless, his sharp eyes flashing with a cold gleam. After a while, he lifted his head and looked at Zhuang Qian beside him, asking, "What do you think?"
Zhuang Qian glanced at Guan Long and spoke, "Old Zhou, it’s not that we don’t understand you, but you have to consider our perspective as well. After this is over, it’s clear we can’t stay in this country. Right now we’re penniless. You have to think about us."
Hearing this, Zhou Lin stood up and walked to the cluttered corner of the warehouse. Opening the door, there sat Tang Shiyun, tied up with ropes on her hands and feet, white wrists chafed by red blood marks, her mouth sealed with duct tape so she couldn’t speak.
Seeing Zhou Lin approaching, Tang Shiyun’s eyes filled with fear, her pale face looking pitiable.
Zhou Lin, without a word, walked up to her and pulled out a dagger from his waist, the sharp blade gently caressing Tang Shiyun’s smooth cheek, eyes merciless and sinister.
"Zhou Lin, what are you doing?" Guan Long and Zhuang Qian, following behind and seeing this, exclaimed with surprise and quickly stopped his action.
"Give me the phone."
Guan Long and Zhuang Qian looked at each other, not understanding what Zhou Lin intended to do, but still handed over the phone.
