CHAPTER 458: CHAPTER 458: NOT AFRAID OF THREATS

While speaking, Yang Wenyu walked forward and then started kicking Ye Chen repeatedly with his foot.

Ye Chen merely endured the pain, then simply lifted his head to look at him.

"I tell you, all the things you’re doing right now, I will definitely pay you back double in the future."

"Heh, paying me back? That depends on whether you have the ability. If you do, good, I’m always ready to entertain you. But if you don’t have the chance, well, sorry, for now, all you can do is endure. Ye Chen, how does it feel? Comfortable, right?"

This was a tremendous insult to Ye Chen. When had he ever suffered such humiliation before? But there was nothing he could do, at this point, he could only temporarily accept it.

"Fine, I give in. Tell me, what exactly do you want to do?"

"What to do? I gave you a chance to walk the sunny path before, but you just refused. Yuan Qinghua, bring the Yuan Qinghua over, then we’ll exchange - money for goods. I only want the Yuan Qinghua, nothing else."

"But, the Yuan Qinghua has already been taken by someone, don’t you know that?"

"Of course, I know that. Moreover, I know exactly who that person is, and I know where he’s staying tonight. So, I demand you, no matter what method you use, to snatch the Yuan Qinghua back for me tonight. Only then will I let you and this woman go, understand?"

"So you’re saying, now I can only do as you command, right?"

"Yes, because right now you’re just a fish on the chopping block, totally at the mercy of others. It’s pointless, but boy, you’d better know your place. Any move you make, this woman’s life will probably be in danger."

While saying this, he shot a glance, and Ye Chen clearly saw the knife being pressed gently against Lin Yaru’s neck, imagining the sharpness of the knife.

He vividly saw a strand of fresh blood dripping from his neck. At this moment, he truly felt an overwhelming sense of humiliation.

This was someone he was supposed to take care of and protect. Yet such a thing was happening right in front of him. He really couldn’t stand it anymore.

"Alright, I agree to your terms, but remember, you must not harm a hair on her head. However, I need to explain a few things to her first. Can I speak with her for a moment?"

"Speak? Sure, go ahead and talk now."

"Hmm, let her come closer to me. Ensure that she has no serious physical injuries right now, so I can carry out your demands. Right now, I can only see her, but I don’t know if any other part of her body is injured."

"Alright, I’ll accommodate you. Come on, pull her over."

Yang Wenyu hadn’t thought too much about it; he just felt that under these circumstances, she definitely would not have any ability to retaliate.

Therefore, even if these two were together, he knew that this group wouldn’t do anything out of line.

Furthermore, there were other men holding guns, continuously aimed at them. Any sudden move from them, and they certainly wouldn’t be faster than the bullets.

Shortly after, those two men pushed Lin Yaru abruptly towards Ye Chen.

His face showed pain, however, he didn’t have the shame to speak ill of others as he rolled to the ground.

"Yaru, Yaru, are you okay?"

Seeing Lin Yaru in this state, honestly, Ye Chen felt like his heart was being cut by knives.

When had Lin Ruru ever suffered such mistreatment? But she was knocked down by these people. He swore, he would not easily forgive them.

"I’m fine, Ye Chen, I... What should we do now?"

Ye Chen could see that Lin Yaru was truly terrified this time. Seeing her disheveled appearance, he could hardly imagine what these people had done to her in the past two hours.

"What did they do to you?"

"They just beat me."

"Did anyone else violate you?"

"No, they just beat me, and I fought back hard, so I protected my body."

It seems that these people must have had such intentions, after all, Lin Yaru is such a stunningly beautiful woman. One might ask, how many men could resist being moved by her?

"Just hold on a bit longer, I’ll try to free myself from these ropes soon, then I’ll push you to the other side. Remember, hide behind that sofa, just stay hidden there and don’t worry about anything else, understand?"

He said this and then gestured with his eyes toward that area.

Because at this moment, Ye Chen already had a plan, and those ropes simply couldn’t hold him.

Simply because of the guns pointing at them, and having this hostage here, he still had to consider these factors.

"Are you done talking?"

At that moment, Yang Wenyu walked over from that side, looking at them.

He spoke and pointed over there because, at this moment, Ye Chen already had a plan in place, and those ropes truly couldn’t hold him.

But, because of the guns pointed at them and having this hostage here, he still had to consider these issues.

"Are you done talking?"

At that moment, Yang Wenyu walked over from that side, looking at them.

"Alright, don’t worry, I’ve explained everything. Now, I’ll do as you say. But remember, during this process, I won’t allow anything to happen to her, clear?"

While speaking, Ye Chen suddenly started straining secretly, and in an instant, the ropes were torn from his body.

When this happened, it truly surprised everyone.

Because, they had used a dead knot, and it was the thickest rope available at the moment.
