Chapter 385: Chapter 385: Despair_1
Ye Xiaoning turned around and saw the bound person struggling, continuously twisting their body and making muffled “mmph mmph” noises.
“Dad.”
The moment Ye Xiaoning recognized the figure and heard the voice, she became frantic, wanting to go over and untie the person, but Lao Si had already laughed sinisterly and closed the door, blocking Ye Xiaoning. He shoved her and said, “Stay put and don’t mess around, or don’t blame me for getting tough.”
Ye Xiaoning was pushed against the wall, losing her balance and almost falling. Trying to stabilize herself, she exerted too much force, and with a “snap,” the heel of her shoe broke, and she twisted her ankle, crying out in pain.
“Lao Si, what are you doing? No matter how rough and fierce you act outside, you can’t treat your wife rudely at home, got it?”
The burly man with the gold chain didn’t hold his tongue, taking advantage at every opportunity verbally, and after speaking, he walked up to Ye Xiaoning and slowly blew a cloud of smoke towards her pretty face. Ye Xiaoning turned her head away uncomfortably and said coldly, “Just how much does my dad still owe you guys? I promised to help repay it, so I hope you’ll follow some underworld ethics.”
“Heh heh heh… if only you were this compliant from the start.”
The burly man with the gold chain smiled lecherously and then his expression turned cold as he said, “Do you really think I went to all this trouble to bring you here just for this petty amount of money?”
Ye Xiaoning instantly had a bad feeling.
Seeing her shiver with fear, the burly man with the gold chain burst out laughing and praised without stopping, “Miss Ye, you really are a looker. Your face and figure are top-notch. The boys and I have been drooling over you.”
“Right, can we touch you a bit?”
“How’s your skill in bed? Want big brother to teach you?”
“Haha, there are so many of us; we guarantee to make you feel heavenly.”
The strong men laughed wickedly, their fiery gazes roaming over Ye Xiaoning’s body.
Ye Xiaoning felt a chill, quickly created distance, and guarded herself warily as she said sternly, “Don’t you dare do anything rash.”
“Do something rash?” The burly man with the gold chain had a rogue look on his face and chuckled heh heh, “We love doing something rash. Just afraid you might also fall for this kind of play.”n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
“Shameless and despicable.” Ye Xiaoning held her bag in front of her chest and cursed with a pout.
“Haha… thanks for the compliment.” The burly man with the gold chain didn’t care about that at all. He moved closer and licked his lips saying, “Us brothers, our lives are already worthless. We live day by day with no thought for tomorrow. As long as there’s money to be made, what wouldn’t we dare to do?”
“You’re hired by someone?” Ye Xiaoning felt things getting worse and asked warily, “Who is it?”
“What do you think?” The burly man with the gold chain asked back, then quickly changed the subject, “Alright, enough playing around. The serious matter comes first. Little lady, call your chairman over.”
“So that’s how it is.” Ye Xiaoning realized what was happening and shook her head decisively in refusal, “You wish. I won’t let you hurt Xue.”
Xu Yixue was very important to Ye Xiaoning. She would rather die herself than let Xu Yixue be harmed. So she directly pressed 110 to call the police.
“You’re actually trying to call the cops? Naive!”
The burly man with the gold chain laughed scornfully and swiftly snatched her phone away, relieved that she hadn’t dialed yet, and casually threw the phone onto the bed.
“Give my phone back.”
Ye Xiaoning tried to get her phone back, but she was no match for the human wall formed by the strong men and was violently shoved again.
“It seems impossible to have you obediently make a phone call now. Then I’ll just have to send her a WeChat message. Sigh… what a hassle.”
The burly man with the gold chain sat on the bed, found Xu Yixue on WeChat, and after confirming it was that great beauty through her profile picture, he began to type one letter at a time, finally pressing send, “Yixue sister, I’m now in Shengshi Hotel room 606, urgent matter, come quickly.”
“Done.”
Seeing the message was definitely sent out, the man with the gold chain pressed the power-off button, grinned at Ye Xiaoning, and said, “It’s said that you two are as close as sisters, so she will definitely come to save you. Hahaha…”
“You bastard!” Ye Xiaoning was anxious, fearing Xu Yixue would receive the WeChat message and come over, which would definitely cause big trouble, and then she’d have a hard time making amends even with her death.
“Right, we are bastards. But, it’s only bastards like us who can serve two beauties like you comfortably.”
The man with the gold chain kept taking the opportunity to say such things, and the other burly men also kept chiming in.
Their foul and disgusting language was extremely repulsive, and Ye Xiaoning listened with gnashing teeth, gradually feeling despair.
She couldn’t imagine what would happen next, only hoping that Xu Yixue wouldn’t come, that it would be best if her phone had been stolen, or that Xu Dan came along with Xu Yixue; otherwise, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Seeing that he had teased enough, the chain-bedecked burly man then ordered, “All right, tie up the little girl, and then just wait.”
“Okay, boss.” Two of the burly men shouted, took out ropes they had prepared earlier, and approached Ye Xiaoning.
“Name: Leng Xuan, Gender: Male, Age: 19, Former Dark Sword member, now retired. Participated in a series of assassination operations in South Africa, Iraq, North America, Europe, and along our national border. Awarded one Special-Class Merit, four First-Class Merits, and three Second-Class Merits…”
The dossier also listed some of the figures who had died at Leng Xuan’s hands, most of whom were military officers or political figures, the military ones being at least division-level officers and the political ones being notable personas. It also included the names of a few drug lords and one underworld boss.
Such information was a national secret; not only was it nearly inaccessible to the general public, but even some heads of state would struggle to find it, as it concerned the lifelong safety of Dark Sword members.
Now that Uncle Liu had easily gotten his hands on such information, one couldn’t help but wonder just how powerful the forces behind Ling Corporation truly were?
After examining the dossier, Elder Ling looked at Uncle Liu with a curious expression, “Where did you find this young man?”
Uncle Liu smiled and recounted the incident that had happened at the bank earlier in the day, concluding with, “Old Master, this young man braved life and death to save an unknown woman, which speaks volumes about his character. Moreover, when a robber shot at him, he could have dodged, but considering the safety of others behind him, he risked his life to intercept the bullet with another bullet. This alone proves that the young man is not only righteous but also has a resolute and brave nature. Such talent is truly rare in today’s world.”
Old Master Ling nodded, a smile finally appearing on his face, “I would like to meet him!”
Uncle Liu responded and went out. Moments later, he returned with Leng Xuan.
After a brief exchange of pleasantries, Elder Ling scrutinized Leng Xuan carefully. He noted that although the young man was poorly dressed, his eyes harbored a sharpness that was too intimidating to confront, a truly astonishing sight.
