2538 Threatening Sister Nian
He was unfriendly.
Joseph looked at the girl, and his expression turned cold. “Doctor Qiao, you didn’t come to Country M alone, right?”
Qiao Nian picked up her shoulder bag from the chair and turned to look at him.
Joseph’s expression relaxed. He was even in the mood to drink water. Then, he slowly said, “You Orientals value family and friends the most. If you insist on going against us, have you thought about their safety?
“Life is short. Sometimes it goes in a flash. A small accident can end a life.”
He enjoyed the thrill of cat and mouse. He looked at the two angry people and smiled gently. “I only want the medicine. As long as you cooperate with me, no ‘accidents’ will happen to the people around you…”
Qiao Nian looked at him in surprise. “You mean that if I don’t cooperate with you, you’ll go after my family and friends?”
Joseph raised his hand slightly and sneered. “That depends on how Doctor Qiao understands.”
“Understood,” Qiao Nian answered quickly.
Her reaction was beyond Joseph’s expectations. He thought she would be angry, and then she would quickly calm down to compromise and beg him for mercy.
However, Qiao Nian looked too calm. She even looked a little… relaxed!
Joseph froze.
What was she relaxed about?
At that moment, his cell phone on the table rang.
Joseph frowned and grabbed it. Looking down, he saw that it was a call from Yu Qingliu.
Why would he call him at this time?
Joseph guessed that Yu Qingliu had something urgent to tell him.
He looked at the girl and quickly picked up. “Hello, Elder Yu.”
…
At the Yu residence.
He placed all his hopes on the royal family.
“What?”
Yu Qingliu shut his eyes tightly and forced himself to calm down. Then, after telling him everything that had happened, he said in a deep voice, “I couldn’t contact her after that. Her cell phone was switched off.”
“Why don’t you go to the hotel and look for her?”
Yu Qingliu knew what he was going to ask, and his eyelids twitched. “I sent someone to look for her, but that person didn’t see me. He asked someone to send me a box.”
“I opened the box. There was a hand inside.”
Yu Qingliu could not describe the shock he felt when he opened the box and saw the bloody mess of a hand inside.
He had lived for dozens of years, but this was the first time he had been provoked so arrogantly!
His voice was deep. “I want to ask you now, have you seen Doctor Qiao? What’s her background?”
Joseph quickly glanced at the girl’s cold side profile, lowered his eyes, and said in a low voice, “I just met her. I don’t have a clear grasp of her yet.”
Yu Qingliu didn’t waste any time and asked straightforwardly, “Alright, keep her there! I want to see what they want!”
“Elder Yu…” Joseph raised his voice. He had other motives for looking for Qiao Nian and did not want to fall out with her like this.
However, Yu Qingliu only cared about the Yu family’s face and Yu Xinlan’s safety. He said concisely, “It’s decided! I’ll bear all the consequences.”
