Chapter 190: Take Them Away
One of the perpetrators immediately put on a show and said loudly, "If you want to shut us up, you’ll need to cough out some benefits."
Xue Li waved her hand, and one of her subordinates immediately opened a small crack in the box in their hands. It was full of cash, and the eyes of the perpetrator were filled with greed.
Xue Li’s lips curled into a smile. "As long as you do as we say, everything here will be yours."
They could not see how much money was inside, but judging from the box’s size, a low estimate would put the sum somewhere around five million yuan. None of them expected such a pleasant surprise.
They were promised 500,000 yuan if they disfigured Shen Xi, taking turns enjoying themselves with her body. 500,000 yuan split eight ways was not much. Now that they could get their hands on five million yuan for nothing, only a fool would not milk the opportunity for what it was worth.
A few rushed to express their attitude, quickly explaining the real situation to the police. Zheng Huai, the person who recorded their confession, was called in for questioning to corroborate the new information the police were hearing. Upon sighting Xue Li, Zheng Huai admitted that he might have mistaken the situation and asked Zhao Yuan to report the incident to the police prematurely.
Zheng Huai seemed rather abashed as he recounted the sequence of events. In the end, the officers on duty lectured Zheng Huai before sending him off.
The eight were released from police custody and led away by Xue Li and her men.
No sooner had they exited the police station than the eight miscreants impatiently reached for the money-filled box. However, Xue Li stopped.
The closest shouted in dissatisfaction, "What are you doing? You should be more polite when asking someone for a favour. Otherwise, I’ll ensure the story of your young master’s threesome is splashed all over the news. Ah! Ahhh!"
Before he could finish, Xue Li twisted the man’s wrist with force, causing a crisp ’Kacha’ sound to ring out, accompanied by an ear-piercing scream.
