Chapter 1528: Chapter 1528: Meeting the Requirements
"What are you proposing?"
"You let her go, and I’ll give you a chance to torture me!"
"Haha..." Miyamoto’s face grew more menacing. "What if I refuse to let her go?"
"As you mentioned earlier, we’re all adults. No one is naive. Don’t you think I know? Once you get what you want, you’ll kill both her and me. If you don’t let her go now, we’ll snap a photo together, and you’ll kill her, then I’ll bite my tongue and kill myself. If you doubt I’d die for this woman, you’re welcome to test me! And to clarify, if you plan to use torture or other cruel methods on me, I’m sorry. She’s strong-willed. She’ll bite her tongue and kill herself. If she’s dead, I’m dead too! So let’s just take that photo and part ways!" Jiang Guangrong shrugged. Jiang Guangrong’s tone was so plain it was as if he were discussing something trivial with Qin Yanran, not his own death, while talking to Miyamoto Tomohiro in a deep Dongyang dialect. "He’s quite the talker. About a few months ago, he did actually kill many for a woman in a hotel. He almost died himself. He still has a bullet in his head that hasn’t been removed. This bullet could kill him at any moment, so he really isn’t afraid of dying. In his view, he will die sooner rather than later. He can’t sleep at night because the bullet in his head could never wake him up again! I think it’s best to agree with him for a while, pretend to let that woman go, and then find a way to test him!"
Jiang Guangrong heard it all clearly. It seemed the chief representative of Miyamoto didn’t realize he understood Dongyang writing, so they didn’t mind him overhearing. Hearing Miyamoto Tomohiro’s words, Jiang Guangrong almost laughed. Miyamoto’s words were a deliberate reminder for himself to be cautious, pretending to release someone while hinting that the bullet in his head could be used at any moment!
Jiang Guangrong, although understanding the foreign eastern language, feigned ignorance while looking at Miyamoto Shintai and Miyamoto Tomohiro.
Miyamoto Shinji gently nodded, answering in Dongyang, "I will consider it. Now I even suspect the Shenglong Ridge isn’t here. This is a big deal. I’ll first report the situation to the family and let them decide!"
"Alright, sounds good!"
Jiang Guangrong seemed calm on the surface, but waves were churning inside. As expected, people from the Imperial Palace came following orders from the Divine Dragon! Since the Royal Family heard something, it means other organizations and families must have heard something as well. I’ll have to endure it from now on. Qin Xian and Qin Yanran, I truly want you dead!
Miyamoto Xin looked down on Jiang Guangrong, speaking in Xia Country language, "Mr. Jiang, this is a very serious matter. I must first report back to the family to see if they’re interested in your deal."
"Yes!" Jiang Guangrong nodded, "I’m the most trustworthy person. As long as you release her, I’ll definitely give you a chance to torture me! More importantly, you might not know, but I still have a bullet in my head that hasn’t been removed, so at any moment, I could die because of it. Maybe just after we finish talking, suddenly..."
Jiang Guangrong suddenly turned his head and fell to the ground.
The Miyamoto envoy was startled out of his wits. He jumped out of his chair and rushed in front of Jiang Guangrong, saying, "No, no!"
Jiang Guangrong quickly opened his eyes again, teasingly looking at Miyamoto Shinji, "I just wanted to show you, so you wouldn’t actually be scared! See, this is how it looks!"
"You!" Miyamoto almost spat blood from his mouth. Angrily he raised a fist, about to punch Jiang Guangrong’s face. But considering the possibility of what Jiang Guangrong mentioned, Miyamoto Gangming hesitated again.
Jiang Guangrong exaggeratedly turned his head to look at Miyamoto Shinji, "Hahaha, what are you doing? I can tell you, don’t scare me! I’m the most cowardly! Maybe that bullet will shoot out of your head, and then your efforts would be in vain!"
"Haha..." Miyamoto Xin couldn’t help but be at a loss for words. After a while, he barely managed to squeeze out a cold laugh.
"Oh come on! You better untie me and my partner! Otherwise, the rope will choke off my blood and qi. Maybe the obstructed blood will suddenly dissipate, the bullet will shoot out from my head and hit your eye, and then you’ll be in big trouble!" Jiang Guangrong looked broadly fearful at Miyamoto Shintai.
"I’m warning you, don’t push it too far!" Miyamoto Gangming held back the urge to strangle Jiang Guangrong, whispering between clenched teeth.
"Are you still threatening me? Oh no, my head hurts! Get two people to massage me, quick!"
"You!" Miyamoto almost exploded in fury. Was this person being tied up or did he invite two uncles back home? As a hostage, can you not have some awareness of being a hostage? Can’t we have some dignity as kidnappers?
Miyamoto nearly laughed. Miyamoto Gangming forced himself not to laugh. He gently pushed Miyamoto Shigeru’s back, "Brother, hurry and contact the family! I’ll handle him here!"
"Alright!" Miyamoto Gangming didn’t want to stay here long, but due to his status, he was too embarrassed to leave. This time, what he said fit his thoughts. He nodded, as if leaving the room.
Miyamoto Tomohiro glanced at the departing Miyamoto Xinchang, a cold smile appearing at the corner of his mouth. Miyamoto Tomohiro walked up to Jiang Guangrong, gently pressing Jiang Guangrong’s head with his hand, "Is it right here?"
"Yes, right here!" Since Miyamoto Tomohiro was one of his own, Jiang Guangrong didn’t make any more trouble.
Miyamoto Shigeru looked at the four easterners in the room and whispered in the eastern language, "Tarou stays, the rest go outside."
Miyamoto Zhi glanced at Miyamoto Tarou standing by the door, gently nodding to Jiang Guangrong, "Don’t worry, Jiang Shao, he’s one of our own! I didn’t know about this news in advance, so I didn’t have time to inform you!"
"No problem!" Jiang Guangrong lightly shook his head, "Is there any chance for us to escape?"
Miyamoto Tomohiro smiled, looking deeply at Qin Yanran sitting next to Jiang Guangrong, "If Jiang Shaojian had dealt with Miyamoto Xinchang earlier, I would have lobbied Miyamoto Xinchang nearby. The lady stands a good chance of escaping, but as for you, Jiang Shaoyou, I can’t think of any way to get you out of your predicament!"
Jiang Guangrong nonchalantly smiled, nodding heavily, "Good. Can you help me get her out? Is Tian Jue alright?"
"Don’t worry, Jiang Shao, Lady Tian is safe!"
"Great, great, great!" Jiang Guangrong nodded again, repeating the same words. Now that the Miyamoto family had started suspecting the Divine Dragon Order was their own, and considering they were enemies with the Miyamoto family, having fallen into Miyamoto’s hands this time, Jiang Guangrong could already imagine how terrible the end would be. The only consolation was that Qin Yanran could escape the predicament.
Miyamoto Tomohiro’s eyes became very deep as he gently looked at Qin Yanran, "Jiang Shao, you need to be prepared. Miyamoto Xinchang is likely to take you back to the palace. His strength far surpasses mine. Around Jiang Shao, people seem to solo, maybe only my senior sister can defeat him! All I can do is save Miss Qin. Jiang Shao, I hope you understand me!"
"Alright! No problem. Let her go!"
"No! I’m not leaving!" Qin Yanran suddenly glared at Jiang Guangrong.
"You must go!" Jiang Guangrong sighed gently.
Qin Yanran still stubbornly shook her head, "I’m not the kind of person who leaves a partner behind! If our roles reversed, I don’t think you’d leave, would you?"
Jiang Guangrong was momentarily speechless.
Miyamoto Tomohiro laughed, "Miss Qin, listen to Jiang Shao. Jiang Shao isn’t at all concerned with his own safety. He just wants you to get out of the predicament. It’s important for her to walk into Jiang Shao’s heart. Don’t let Jiang Shao down!"
Two beautiful tears slid down Qin Yanran’s eyes. Qin Yanran didn’t look at the wall, her voice starting to tremble, "If you don’t want to see me, why do you care about whether I live or die?"
Miyamoto Tomohiro spoke for Jiang Guangrong, "Miss Qin, don’t misunderstand me. I’m a man. I understand Jiang Shao’s mind! As Jiang Shao mentioned, there’s a bullet in his head that could kill him at any moment! Actually, Jiang Shao really cares about you. If he didn’t, how could he protect you several times? Let’s not mention whether Jiang Shao really doesn’t want to see you or not. Even if he doesn’t want to, he’s afraid that one day he’ll die and you’ll regret it. Do you understand?"
