Si Xia stood up and warned the man beside her, “No one is allowed to tell my brother about this, or you’ll face the consequences.”
“Sister Xia, don’t worry. We’re the Boss’s people. You’re the Boss’s sister. As such, we’re also your people. So, we’ll do whatever you say. We know you won’t harm Boss, right?” The tattooed man chuckled.
Si Xia rolled her eyes at him and did not say anything else.
She, harm Si Fan? How was that possible? She loved Si Fan more than anything. How could she harm him? For Si Fan, she was willing to do anything, including all kinds of illegal stuff.
However, Yin Mo was really an eyesore, and Si Fan protected Yin Mo very well, so she could not touch Yin Mo at all. Fortunately, Mary was here. Since she said that she had a way to deal with Yin Mo, Si Xia naturally had to agree to her offer.
In the beginning, she sincerely wanted to cooperate with Mary, so she brought Mark out.
However, the few people in charge of guarding Mark said that the boy was very important to Si Fan. If they really handed Mark over, it would probably affect Si Fan.
Although she could not imagine how a small employee like Mary could affect Si Fan, she eventually accepted this argument.
Just before Mary arrived, she suddenly thought of a solution. She did not have to let Mark go, but she could still have Mary continue to do things for her obediently.
All she had to do was grasp Mary’s weakness. She would use whatever Mary valued the most to threaten her.
Si Xia got up and looked at the tattooed man. “You…”
Bang!
Before she could finish the sentence, the door of the warehouse was suddenly kicked open. Si Xia turned around and saw the person standing at the door. It was a woman, but she was wearing a mask and hat. She could not tell what she looked like.
“Who are you?” The moment she saw the woman, Si Xia cursed in her heart. Could it be that Mary really brought people over?
However, when she saw that the newcomer was alone, she was secretly relieved.
At this moment, Shu Yi was standing outside the door. She asked Tan Ai to hide at the side and wait for an opportunity to make a move, while she went over to scout the situation.
She looked at the inside of the warehouse and pretended to be surprised. “Oh, there’s someone here? When I saw the light from afar, I thought I was seeing things. It’s great that there’s someone here. This place is so remote. 1 think I got lost. Can you tell me how to get to the Western District? My phone ran out of battery.”
Hearing Shu Yi’s sincere question, the few people present were a little stunned. Everyone looked at each other and saw the doubt in each other’s eyes.
It was so late at night. How could anyone get lost in such a place?
“Sister Xia, this…” The tattooed man did not know what to do. After all, they were about to do something bad and this woman at the door bumped into them. For a moment, he was not sure what to do.
Si Xia frowned and looked at Shu Yan. “Are you lost?”
Shu Yi nodded. “That’s right. It’s scary to walk alone in the middle of the night. Fortunately, I found you guys. I’m not as scared now.” As she spoke, she patted her chest as if she was really relieved.
“Do you know Mary?” Si Xia stared at Shu Yi and asked directly.
If Shu Yi showed any suspicious signs, she would have no choice but to do her in as well.
Shu Yi shook her head. “I don’t know this person. Why? Did your friend get lost too?”
Si Xia nodded and replied, “That’s right. She just went out and hasn’t come back yet. We’re waiting for her to come back so that we can leave. If you’re not in a hurry, you can come in and wait for a while. When we leave, we’ll drop you off somewhere nearby where you can get a taxi.”
Si Xia originally wanted Shu Yi to leave as soon as possible, but no matter how she thought about it, the situation just did not feel right.
How could a girl suddenly come to such a place in the middle of the night? She might have come with Mary and, after seeing Mary leave but not return, she came to check the situation.
If that were the case, it would be bad if this woman called the police if they let her leave. Si Xia might as well capture them together and threaten them not to tell anyone. She might even get a pleasant surprise after this.
Thinking of this, Si Xia decided to lure Shu Yi inside.
Shu Yi could not ask for more. She was worrying about what excuse she should use to go in and check on things. When she heard Si Xia’s words, she instantly said happily, “Okay, that’s great. If it weren’t for you, I’ll probably have to walk until tomorrow morning by myself.”
Shu Yi slowly walked in.. As she walked, she asked, “How many of you are there? Other than your friend who left, are there any others who got lost outside?”
