Qin Guo squatted down, reducing the gap between her and An Xiaoning even more. With her face full of makeup, she smirked as she remarked, “Ms. An, this is not a place where you can still act tough. I know you’re incredible, but now that you’re in our hands, you have no power at all, of any sort. You should act wisely and listen to us for your own sake, to prevent any suffering.”
An Xiaoning did not answer. She knew clearly that she had no freedom now and could only allow herself to be controlled by others.
Seeing that she had taken in her words, Qin Guo stood up and sat on a corner of the sofa, crossing her legs. She seemed to be waiting for something.
An Xiaoning, on the other hand, sat on the floor. Her back was still aching vaguely from that kick she received.
The room was exceptionally cold, and there was no heater at all.
Furthermore, the icy cold floor had no carpet. She was freezing after she had sat there for a long time.
Her legs were even going numb.
The room was exceptionally quiet, and there was not even a bit of sound.
In that manner, she continued to wait.
After waiting for around a few hours, a phone in the room started ringing.
Qin Guo immediately went to answer it. While An Xiaoning did not know what the person on the other line had instructed her, she was brought to another room on the eighth floor.
After she swiped her thumbprint on it, the door opened automatically.
An Xiaoning followed her in. As compared to the previous room they were in, this room was much more extravagant.
A thick carpet was laid on the floor starting from the door.
The heater in the room was also switched on, and it felt like a warm summer’s day inside.
With the heater blowing on their face, they felt extremely warm.
Qin Guo made her sit on the sofa. “Wait here, our Boss will be here soon.”
An Xiaoning did not answer her, as usual, and only sat there to wait.
Thereafter, Qin Guo went out of the room.
Surveying the room, she realized that there were quite a few surveillance cameras installed.
The room was like a suite, and there was another door at the side.
It was possible that it was a bedroom.
She stopped surveying the room and fixed her gaze on the coffee table before her.
The “Boss” that the woman referred to finally arrived.
She indeed did not wait very long for him.
The sound of footsteps approaching came from outside.
A tapping sound came from the door lock thereafter, and the door was slowly opened.
An Xiaoning glanced at the direction of the door.
The leader was rather different from how she had expected him to be. He had neither a bald head nor a beer belly, and much less did he have fierce looks.
On the contrary, he stood tall at a height of at least 1.8 meters and had a good figure. As for his looks, An Xiaoning’s brain could only produce two words to describe it: devilish-looking.
As expected, the most evil people could not be recognized from just the surface.
If a man like this went on the streets, who would ever think that he was the ultimate leader of the terrorist group, DK Organization?
The man entered and closed the door behind him.
His gaze immediately met An Xiaoning’s.
Although his looks were quite outstanding, there was no smile on his face at all. It was stern-looking and cold.
“You look much prettier than you did in the picture.”
These were the first words he said to An Xiaoning.
An Xiaoning replied, “My looks can’t be compared with yours. You look much prettier than I do.”
After her words came out, she immediately regretted them. Her words were obviously marked with sarcasm, and it was not wise of her to provoke him now.
Which man would like hearing someone say that he looks like a woman?
He was no exception either. All these while, the people who’d dared to talk about his looks had been dragged out to be killed. But this woman, while fully aware of her circumstances, actually dared to say something like this.
On the contrary, it did not make him feel irritated.
Seeing that he did not speak and only sized her up, An Xiaoning was rather worried that if he got upset, he would take it out on her and make her suffer. She hurriedly asked, “I have no feud with you, why did you expend so much effort to get me here?”
“No feud?” He sat down and was about two feet away from her. With his body turned to her, he remarked, “You and Jin Qingyan killed many of my men previously, have you forgotten?”
“That was because you sent your men to kill us on the plane. We were just defending ourselves. It’s perfectly reasonable. Speaking of this, I actually want to ask, why did you do that?”
The man raised his brows. “Just for my own gains, what other reason could there be?”
“You sent your men to bring me here from a long distance away. I’m sure it’s not to kill me, so I still have a use to you. What do you want me to do? Just tell me.”
“My name is Pei Yi.” He went on, “You’re very smart. I brought you here because you have some use to me indeed. I’ve long heard about how that idiot Xi Bolai kidnapped you just to extort money from Jin Qingyan. In the end, he was killed by Jin Qingyan. Why do you think I brought you here?”
An evil man like that not only had good looks, but his name also even sounded so humane.
What a huge disappointment.
“Just like what you said, for your own gains. As to what gains specifically, how would I know? For Mr. Pei to be in this position, I’m sure it’s not something a woman like me can guess. However, you can just tell me what you want me to do. Whether I go along with what you want depends on whether I still want this life of mine.”
Pei Yi’s wide eyes narrowed slightly. “In the past, I’ve only gotten to know about you from the news and didn’t feel interested in you. I only felt that a woman like you must be pretty and have some brains to be able to get Jin Qingyan’s love. From my investigation, Jin Qingyan is not even the only one that adores you. For a woman, particularly one that has been married and has a child, to be able to make more than one man fall head over heels for her, it’s really quite a feat. Too many women have good looks but no brains. However, seeing you today made me change my impression of you.”
An Xiaoning did not speak and simply allowed him to continue talking.
“If you act according to what I say, you won’t suffer at all. As to what exactly I want you to do, you’ll know soon enough.” He suddenly stood up. “Come with me.”
An Xiaoning slowly stood up before following behind him.
They went into his other room within the hotel suite. It was indeed a bedroom.
And a rather huge one.
It even led to another small room inside.
Which was none other than a bathroom and a dressing area.
Pei Yi took out a key from the drawer and stood before her. “There are surveillance cameras everywhere here, I believe you’ve seen them. I’ll unlock your handcuffs to give you some freedom, but you better not do anything to disappoint me. Otherwise, don’t blame me for not being gentle toward a woman.”
“I got it.”
She could tell that the key in his hand was one that could open almost any kind of lock.
When the handcuffs were unlocked, her restrained hands were finally released and she could feel her wrists aching badly.
She could not help but frown as she swung her hands back and forth.
He threw the key back into the drawer and took out a pair of scissors.
An Xiaoning’s heart tightened. “What... what are you doing?”
His lips pursed as he zipped open her feathered coat and simply took it off of her.
With his every movement, An Xiaoning could feel her heart tightening with fear.
With his slender hands, he then used the scissors to cut her pants from her thighs all the way down by following a line.
