She was a brave little fox. She was not scared at all.
Hidden in the dark while waiting for the criminals to appear, Xia Jinyuan smiled. “Alright then, take care of yourself.”
Since she wanted to participate in an actual combat, he would grant her this opportunity. He would clear the obstacles outside before she would come out.
Slowly, Gao Yiyang approached Ye Jian and sat to her left. Gazing at her ear, he said, “You... can contact the people outside.” It was an affirmative sentence.
“Yes, I can.” Ye Jian pulled up her long, black hair, revealing the tiny black earpieces. “They are the soldiers of the Chinese Military and they are outside right now. They will solve the problems outside before midnight and rescue us.”
Shivering, Gao Yiyang closed his eyes. When he opened his eyes again, he tried to hide his self-mockery, and said, “So, we are just waiting now, right?” But what did she mean by ‘I would get myself out if I could’?
Gao Yiyang wanted to ask her, but he couldn’t.
She had established contact with the people outside one hour ago, but in the past hour of suffering, she remained silent and kept it from Gao Yiyang.
What did it mean? She didn’t trust him? Or she didn’t bother to talk to him?
Gao Yiyang felt deeply frustrated.
The boy sounded a bit angry and upset. Ye Jian narrowed her eyes and looked at him calmly. Smiling, she said, “I didn’t tell you about this earlier, because you would become more unsettled if I didn’t hear back from them. And I am being honest with you now because I am sure someone is going to rescue us. All we need to do is wait.”
She paused as she saw the boy trying to conceal his changing emotions with an indifferent look. Her smile became brighter. “If no one contacts me, that means this communication device is useless!”
Did she mean that it would be better for him if she didn’t give him hope in the first place?
Because if hope was lost, he would be the one to get hurt eventually.
Gao Yiyang’s expression froze, he lowered his eyes and shoulders feebly.
There was nothing he could say. Ye Jian was far more considerate than he was.
She took care of his feelings at such an unbearable moment... Burying his head in his arms, Gao Yiyang let out a bitter smile.
Just like what his father had said, his so-called intelligence and inviolable self-esteem were nothing but a joke to others.
Since he stopped asking, Ye Jian stopped explaining. Her explanation was clear enough. Whether Gao Yiyang could understand or not was his problem.
Time passed away slowly. At 10:30 pm, Red Scorpion appeared near the KTV, along with a trembling student walking beside him. “Walk through here. Remember. Deliver the goods and get the money! Without the money, don’t bother coming back!”
The boy moved his lips, trying to say something. As he saw the fierce look on Red Scorpion’s face, he held the black bag tightly and marched toward the sinful place.
He could not look back. Red Scorpion, who never conducted deals in person, did not allow him to look back!
“He’s here, Nick.” Someone closed the window and informed Nick, who was waiting for his goods in the KTV. Nick was also the number one target pursued by the International Police. “As usual, Red Scorpion sent his student to deliver the goods.”
Showing a violent look on his rough face, Nick took a large puff of his cigar. The green beast tattoos on his arms were revealed as he folded his muscular arms in front of his chest. “Tell him that I don’t have much patience.”
What he implied was that Red Scorpion should deliver the goods personally.
