Chapter 1661: Chapter 1661: The Bet Paid Off
She clenched her fists, finally relenting: "Stop! Let them go."
"What did you say? Say it again if you dare!" Fengye Wuyin sneered coldly. The icy gun in his hand immediately pressed against her head, his beautiful eyes fierce, "You dare to order me around, woman? Know your place and don’t meddle, or I’ll blow your head off!"
His face was chilling; this lowly woman, Yalan, dared to defy his orders with such a tone.
"..." Yiyi’s face turned pale, her heart pounding like crazy.
The cold gun pressed against her temple, and she was indeed afraid. She had witnessed how violent and unpredictable this person could be. Killing was his whim; killing her wouldn’t be surprising.
"I want you to let them go, or I won’t help you."
"Woman, do you think you have the grounds to negotiate?" Fengye Wuyin’s deep purple eyes grew colder. With a click, he cocked the gun and pressed it more forcefully against her head, "Or are you saying you want to taste the same fate as that woman just now?"
Yiyi’s face turned white; she felt her life was already stepping into the underworld’s door.
But she had come this far; showing weakness would only make him scorn and trample over her more, which would be even worse.
She steeled herself.
"Whether or not there is room to negotiate depends on how much you value this task and my indispensability in it?"
Fengye Wuyin’s gaze turned even colder, a deadly sharp light flashing in his vibrant eyes. Suddenly, he spoke softly.
"What do you think?"
Yiyi’s eyes were discerning: "You went through such great lengths to find so many girls. Clearly, this task isn’t just important to you—it’s extremely important. You can’t afford any mishaps. This also means that female companions are a crucial part of your plan, indispensable. Since you chose me, it proves my value. Do you really think I don’t have the right to negotiate?"
"You’re quite clever, able to figure out my thoughts. But..."
Fengye Wuyin’s other slender hand landed on her neck. In an instant, a murderous intent surged, his five fingers clamped down, causing a sharp pain in her throat. His sinister voice exploded in her ear.
"You should know, overly clever people are a future threat. Killing you, I can always find someone else to replace you!"
Yiyi was in excruciating pain from his grip. This man was thin-looking, but his wrist strength was terrifyingly astounding, nearly suffocating her.
She didn’t struggle or scream, instead looking at him with a cold and determined glare: "I. Cannot. Be. Replaced."
She had to gamble.
Feeling the iron-clad five fingers tightening around her throat step by step, her vision started to blur, no air left to breathe, death looming ahead!
Seeing the woman in front of him nearly suffocate, yet showing no sign of pleading. Fengye Wuyin frowned, a flash of anger passing over his face.
In a fit of rage, he flung his hand, throwing Yiyi aside like trash. She fell to the ground, covering her neck marked with five bruise lines, but inwardly, she let out a sigh of relief as her frantically pounding heart calmed down.
She had bet correctly.
"If it weren’t for time constraints, do you think you have the right to negotiate with me, woman? One day you’ll pay the price for threatening me!" Fengye Wuyin’s sinister voice was full of menace, then he turned his gaze like a knife towards Lino, "Leave these women alive."
Lino’s face showed a look of surprise, finding it astonishing that Fengye conceded. Truly unexpected.
Considering how this guy, when angered, wouldn’t hesitate to kill, it was a miracle she survived after provoking him.
