Chapter 554: Chapter 554: The Terminally Ill Heiress on Death Game Island (70)
These people who treat human lives as a game look like wobbly-footed shrimp before Bai Huai, scrambling to escape in panic, almost like ants desperately trying to flee on a hot pan.
In this moment, Bai Huai seems to understand better why they enjoy toying with human lives.
Look at how amusing they look in their panic now.
No, he can’t think this way; he is taking Yanyan out, getting out cleanly, he can’t share the same mindset as these people.
After subduing them, Bai Huai found some rope and tied them all up. Afraid of unexpected events, he casually struck their joints, making them too weak to stand.
"A9, what do you want? Just say the word, and I can give it to you."
"A seaside villa, luxury cars, beautiful women!"
"A world tour, would you like to experience that?"
"I guarantee you can leave safely and enjoy a different lifestyle, and we won’t pursue it."
"A9, just let me go."
Bai Huai swept his gaze over the crowd, tugged at his pristine shirt, and said coldly, "I’m not called A9, my name is Bai Huai."
What A9, that’s the code for a trapped beast.
He is a person, not a trapped beast, he is Bai Huai, not called A9.
These people used their lives and deaths to place bets here.
Bai Huai stepped on Zhang Yunhui’s face, grinding forcefully, and Zhang Yunhui felt humiliated but had to cave at this moment.
"I can send you out."
"I want to know..." Bai Huai said, "How did I end up here?"
He hung his head, his complexion looking unwell, his fists tightly clenched.
Perhaps, the home he hoped to return to upon exiting was not the place he anticipated.
"During that accident years ago, I was there too, but luckily escaped a disaster, witnessing you using your talent to locate people buried in the ruins, better than a rescue dog. At that time, Death Game Island was about to be completed, and you became my backup candidate."
"Taking you away was agreed by your dad; he thought you were mischievous and difficult to discipline, and had long wanted to have a second child as backup. I said I wanted to cultivate your talent, and gave him a substantial sum of money, he barely hesitated."
"Afterward, he didn’t ask about you."
"Later, he moved away from the original place."
Zhang Yunhui continued, "Probably forgot about you."
"And my mom?" Bai Huai looked up, "Did she ask about me?"
Zhang Yunhui looked uneasy: "Your mom died."
He didn’t want to say it, but knowing that the other party would find out eventually, it’s better to be frank; at this point, he couldn’t afford to anger the other party.
"How did she die?"
"She wanted to find you, argued with your dad for several years, finally divorced. Later, your dad married again and had children, she took half the money to search for you, and died of illness a few years later."
Bai Huai stomped hard on Zhang Yunhui’s back, hearing a click as he walked over him.
"Bai Huai, I can send you out. If it wasn’t for your dad agreeing, I might not have been able to take you; after all, this whole thing isn’t entirely my fault." Zhang Yunhui shouted in pain.
Bai Huai ignored Zhang Yunhui; he had to go fetch Qiann Yan.
They can leave, can’t let her wait too long.
In the pitch-black room, Qiann Yan sat by the window, waiting for Bai Huai’s news, the outside was a patch of darkness.
Suddenly, there were faint footsteps outside the door, and then the door opened.
She looked back, and even in the dark, she could vaguely see the silhouette approaching her.
It was Bai Huai.
"Succeeded?"
"Yes, succeeded."
Bai Huai crossed the distance in two strides to reach her, paused, and finally couldn’t resist hugging her: "Can I have a hug?"
"I really need one right now."
