After my epilepsy, the entire entertainment industry shunned me like a snake or a scorpion.

Meng Shuo pointed at Yin Jiu, who was a little confused.

Coming for her?

"I don't know him..."

"It's enough that he knows you." Meng Shuo was afraid that she hadn't figured it out yet, so he added, "To be precise, he came for your necklace."

necklace?

Back in time and space...

I had hidden it at home a long time ago and hadn't worn it for a long time.

As he was speaking, Lu Yi led the others to go around behind the few people and surround them.

The three people, including Meng Xiang, were trapped in an encirclement. Behind them was a rushing river, in front of them were Meng Shuo, Yin Jiu and others, and on both sides were people from the Lu family.

"As long as you release Meng Xiang, today's matter will end here. Cross this stream and head south. Once you reach South City, never come back."

Meng Shuo came out and started to negotiate with the man opposite him. His brows were filled with fatigue that could not be concealed. He quietly waited for the other party's answer.

The man opposite had a mocking look in his eyes, and his tone was a little playful: "At this point, do you still want to go against me?"

Two people stood opposite each other, one was facing away from the sun with a gloomy face, while the other was standing in the light, looking completely indifferent.

Yin Jiu's intuition told her that Meng Shuo knew the man opposite her. Her words just now gave her the feeling that they had a falling out because they failed to reach an agreement on the terms of the negotiation. She didn't know if it was her illusion.

"Going against it?" Meng Shuo probably heard something funny and found it hard to understand what he said. "Do you think what you did was right?"

A different emotion arose in the man's eyes. He closed his eyes, then opened them. Without the interference of the messy thoughts just now, his dark eyes were more determined.

"Whether it's right or wrong is not up to you to decide."

His younger brother is good in every way except that he is still as soft-hearted as ever.

Nothing great will be accomplished.

The man carried Meng Xiang and retreated step by step. With the hostage in his hands, he was not worried that the other side would act rashly.

Only by crossing the creek and reaching the territory of South City could he find a way to get rid of them.

"Uncle!"

Meng Xiang's face turned pale due to blood loss and his head felt dizzy, but there was a voice in his brain clamoring for him not to sleep.

She was afraid that if she fell asleep, she would never see her uncle and Yin Jiu again when she woke up.

"Release Meng Xiang!"

Seeing that the other party was still retreating, Meng Shuo simply took a few steps forward.

"do not come!"

His behavior seemed to have angered the other party. The man glanced at the scarred man who was being dragged away by the woman, and signaled her with his eyes to lead the way.

"You care about her so much?"

The man pointed the muzzle of his cell phone at Meng Xiang, and his other hand pinched her fragile neck.

"Or is it that what you care about is the huge inheritance left by her father?"

He didn't believe that his good brother would be so generous as to raise someone else's daughter for more than ten years.

"Then why did you kidnap her? To blackmail me, or to threaten Yin Jiu?"

Under the temptation of profit, who can guarantee that they are not seeking profit at all?

He initially adopted Meng Xiang because he needed the inheritance left by her parents.

Hearing Meng Shuo's words, the other party laughed: "Of course I want both."

"The inheritance is in my uncle's hands. Even if you kidnap me, you can't get the money."

Meng Xiang actually has no idea how much inheritance her parents left her.

She only knew that after her parents passed away, all the relatives and friends related to the Meng family came to her and volunteered to assume their obligation to support her.

She chose her uncle herself because she knew that her uncle, like herself, had no parents, and the money was enough for the two of them to live on and never have to worry about food and drink for the rest of their lives.

"Do you know who he is? Just hand the money over to him without any worries."

The man sneered, as if he was disdainful of Meng Xiang's naivety and stupidity.

"No matter who he is, he is my uncle." Meng Xiang firmly chose to defend Meng Shuo on this point, because she knew that Meng Shuo was not the greedy person he said. "What's more, my uncle told me that if I want the money after I become an adult, I can take it back at any time."

Every time she spoke a word, she had to take a breath. The burning sensation in the wound at the beginning turned into a piercing numbness.

Maybe it was because the pain was so severe that she couldn't feel anything else.

The situation was at a stalemate for a while, so Yin Jiu simply joined the negotiations.

"If you let her go, I will give you the ability to go back in time."

What time travel.

Just give him a couple of glass beads.

Anyway, he probably has never seen what that thing looks like, so even if she makes a high-quality imitation, he probably won't be able to tell the difference.

The man looked over and said "Oh" softly. Just when Yin Jiu thought that he was going to agree, he heard the man sneer and say -

"You don't think I don't know what's good, so you're trying to tease me with a broken plastic bead, do you?"

Yin Jiu: "..."

To be honest, she did think so.

But then again, how on earth did he know?

If Yin Jiu had not been sure that he had never seen the other person, he would probably have almost suspected that he was a worm that had escaped from his stomach.

"Yin Jiu, I always thought you were a brainless woman, but now it seems that you are cunning and scheming."

Yin Jiu: "..."

She? Scheming?

My brother has the intuition of a dog.

It wasn't enough to insult her for having a low IQ, she was also called scheming.

He curses so dirty!

Even so, Yin Jiu still insisted: "As long as you release Meng Xiang now, I will give you time travel immediately, guaranteed!"

If it's fake, definitely change it.

"Okay, I'll only give you five hours. If you bring the stuff here within five hours, I'll let you go."

He calculated the time. It would only take four hours to fly a helicopter from here and back, so it would definitely be enough time.

Moreover, if we ask someone to urgently deliver the things from the Lu family and then send someone to pick them up, it will probably take less than two hours.

Yin Jiu cursed him inwardly for being despicable and shameless, then raised his head and smiled politely: "Let him go first, and we can talk it out."

The man opposite simply ignored Yin Jiu and said to Lu Cenyan, "Boss Lu, thank you for your help."

Lu Cenyan turned around, his cold and distant face showing no extra emotions, and ordered calmly: "Lu Qi, contact Uncle Rong to send the things over."

Lu Qi, who was following Lu Cenyan, immediately bowed after receiving the order.

"Yes!"

After Lu Qi left quickly, Yin Jiu's mouth twitched, and he asked Lu Cenyan with some dissatisfaction: "No, why does he call you Mr. Lu and call me a scheming woman?"

Hearing this, Lu Cenyan couldn't help but chuckle softly. There was more indulgence and doting in the look he gave Yin Jiu, and he called out softly in her ear.

"Boss Yin, are you angry?"
