949 Stone, Come Back!
The lackeys were put in a difficult position.
If they chose the first, they would offend Cheng Shengli. Cheng Shengli was a vengeful person and definitely wouldn’t take this lying down. Moreover, he had countless despicable methods. If they revealed the truth, they would have a hard time living in the capital.
The second choice was even worse. The mastermind was the eldest daughter of the Mu family. It was said that she was Young Master Ye’s girlfriend. They could not afford to offend her.
They were in a dilemma.
“Is there a third choice?” A lackey asked tentatively.
Qin Xi smiled. “Of course.”
Before the lackeys could be happy, they heard Qin Xi say, “The third choice is that you don’t say anything and I don’t do anything.”
The corners of the lackeys’ mouths twitched. How was that even a choice?
A lackey forced a smile and begged in a low voice, “We were wrong. We really know our mistake and will repent. We’re just following the order. Don’t make things difficult for us, okay? As long as you can treat us, we’ll do anything.”
Seeing that they were a bunch of cowards, Qin Xi couldn’t help but sneer. “You’ll do anything? Then why can’t you tell the truth? Are you afraid that he will take revenge?”
She clicked her tongue and mocked, “It seems that you still don’t understand your situation. I don’t have time to waste with you. Don’t blame me for not reminding you. This is the last chance. Whether you can stand up or not is entirely up to you.”
With that, she stopped looking at them and continued to treat the patients.
“What should we do? I really don’t want to be in a wheelchair for the rest of my life.”
“Me too. Why don’t… we tell the truth?”
“How? Boss is still here!”
“Then why don’t we tell her who the mastermind is. We’ll run away after we’re cured…”
“I agree!”
“I agree too.”
Although they could not afford to offend the Mu family, as long as they ran away, the Mu family wouldn’t be able to do anything to them.
After knowing who the mastermind was, Qin Xi would definitely go after Mu Yali. When the two of them were busy dealing with each other, they could take the opportunity to run away.
After discussing, they gritted their teeth and said to Qin Xi, “It was the eldest daughter of the Mu family, Mu Yali, who asked us to do it. She said that she wanted us to teach you a lesson. It’s best if you lose… lose something you cherish the most.”
The lackey subconsciously looked at Qin Xi’s stomach. Clearly, the thing she cherished the most was her unborn child.
When Han Shi heard this, he was instantly enraged. Like a whirlwind, he arrived in front of the lackey in the blink of an eye. His eyes were like sharp knives, and his entire body exuded a suffocating pressure.
He grabbed the lackey by the neck and picked him up from the wheelchair. He said word by word, “What did you say? Say it again?”
The lackey was dumbfounded.
Not to mention him, even the others were shocked. Han Shi was so fast that they couldn’t even keep up with their eyes.
How could someone with such speed be an ordinary person?
“I… I…”
The lackey, who was grabbed by the collar, was stammering. He looked at Han Shi in horror, his eyes filled with panic and fear.
“Stone, come back!” At this moment, Qin Xi’s gentle voice came from behind.
