Chapter 675: Escape
But now that things have come to this, it’s best to think about escaping first; the rest can be dealt with later. If I can get out, I must plan to do it this way. But if I can’t, then this is all life will ever be for me. I will have betrayed the expectations of my boss above me, who thought I could lead some good-for-nothings to a new victory.
"Come over here, pretty girl, be good. When I was downstairs, just seeing the way you looked made my heart itch. I thought I wouldn’t get my chance today and that I’d have to wait until after the next job to see you again. By then, you’d be worthless, wouldn’t you? Tonight is your first time entertaining guests,"
a sleazy man said those words while touching Lin Qi’s face with his rough, black hand. The hand was extremely prickly, clearly weathered from the wind and sun, and very coarse. As it caressed Lin Qi’s face, she felt as if her skin were being roughly rubbed by something abrasive. It was terribly uncomfortable. How could anyone’s hands be like that?
"Hehe, when we arrived here before, we hadn’t seen this beauty. How could she have been one of the previous ones? She must be new. Hey, Fourth Brother, stop asking those questions and don’t forget what our goal is this time. I casually found someone to hold hostage to facilitate our escape later. I’ll give her to you for now, but let me be clear,
after you’ve had your fill, it’s my turn. I really liked this woman when I was downstairs earlier, but since you do too, I let you go first. After you’re done, you better let me have my turn. If you straight up kill her before I get to her, I’ll be pissed. You’ve got to leave me a way out, right?"
One of the shortest and least imposing men spoke up, looking fairly clean in appearance, but his features were hard to look at, and his height was noticeably short. Listening to him speak and feeling the coarse man’s hand smearing across her face, the stench reaching her nose, Lin Qi felt unbearable.
She wanted to vomit. Having drunk too much, she couldn’t hold it back and suddenly threw up. This annoyed the rough man, who slapped her, smacking Lin Qi’s face so hard it twisted to one side, muttering, "Look at you, you little slut, daring to puke on me. Do you know how valuable I am?
And you puke on me? You’re just a cheap woman. Is it so revolting to let me touch you? I’ll make you puke, I’ll make you..." Four Brother continued muttering as he slapped Lin Qi, and the sound of the strikes was frightening for everyone present. Lin Qi felt dizzy and had never experienced such pain in her life.
She memorized the man’s face, vowing to get back at him for hitting her this way—she’d make sure he paid a price if she ever got the chance. After finishing, the burly man felt significantly more satisfied.
Second Brother was very dissatisfied with this scene. It was a time to be avoiding the police; how could they make such a loud commotion? What if they really couldn’t get away? His little brother could sometimes be too reckless, acting without any consideration. What if the woman was beaten to death? What then?
