C20 Zhao Wan'er, Who Was Scared to Death.

Zhou Yingxue was startled before she found her voice.

"Big brother, have you made a mistake?"

"We're not the young mistress of the Zhou family."

"Her last name is Zhao, and I'm a Huang."

Scarface let out a slight chuckle.

"No way. Our intel is solid."

"One of you has to be the Zhou family's young miss."

"You, go wake the other one up, and be gentle about it."

"She just might be the one we're looking for."

Scarface instructed Tiger.

"Understood, Big Brother."

Tiger approached Zhao Wan'er, a chicken feather in hand, and began to tickle her nose with it.

Soon, Zhao Wan'er let out a violent sneeze and came to her senses.

Opening her eyes, she was met with a menacing, lecherous face.

"Ah! Creep, back off!"

Zhao Wan'er tried to raise her hand to strike him but realized she was immobilized.

Then she heard Zhou Yingxue's voice from behind.

"Wan'er, we've been abducted."

"They claim they're after the Zhou family's young mistress."

"But one of us is a Zhao, the other a Huang."

"There's no Zhou among us!"

"What are we going to do?"

Zhou Yingxue tapped Zhao Wan'er's hand as she spoke.

It was then that Zhao Wan'er fully grasped their predicament.

She and Yingxue had been kidnapped.

The Zhou family's eldest daughter! Could it be Yingxue?

She picked up on the subtle hint in Zhou Yingxue's tone.

Scarface approached, eyeing Zhao Wan'er.

"What's your name?"

Zhao Wan'er, shivering with fear, stammered out her response.

"Big brother, I'm Zhao Wan'er."

"And her?" Scarface pointed at Zhou Yingxue.

Zhao Wan'er, recalling Zhou Yingxue's earlier words, hesitantly replied.

"She... She's Huang Yingxue."

Listening to Zhao Wan'er's answer, Scarface stroked his namesake scar, his mouth twisting into a sinister grin as the scar stretched grotesquely.

"Do you understand what happens if you lie to me?"

Zhao Wan'er stared at the menacing Scarface, tears streaming down her cheeks.

She was too frightened to cry out loud, instead, she whimpered quietly, a yellow liquid trickling from her lower body.

"Big, big brother, I swear I'm not lying to you," she sobbed.

Zhou Yingxue joined in with her own pleas.

"Big Brother, we truly aren't the Zhou family's young mistresses."

"Please, just let us go."

Scarface felt a twinge of doubt. Could he have actually kidnapped the wrong people?

Judging by their terrified tears, they didn't seem to be deceiving him.

"Big brother, it's even better if they're not the Zhou family's young misses!"

"We should take care of both of them. They're so beautiful, they must be a real treat."

"Yeah, Big Brother, you go first, have a go at both of them."

"Spending time with such beauties is worth losing ten years of life."

"Right, since they're not the Zhou family's young mistresses, no one will come to their rescue."

"We can't let this trip be for nothing."

The kidnappers surrounding them leered at Zhou Yingxue and Zhao Wan'er with predatory grins.

Hearing their conversation, Zhao Wan'er's crying intensified.

What could she do? Who would save her?

Scarface felt a stir of excitement as he listened to his brothers.

He slowly nodded, signaling his agreement with their suggestions.

"Alright, big brother, we'll stand guard outside for you."

"Just give us a shout when you're finished."

With that, the other four men headed outside.

Scarface advanced toward Zhou Yingxue and Zhao Wan'er with a lecherous gaze.

Zhou Yingxue watched in terror as he drew nearer.

She thought to herself,

Was she about to be violated by this brute?

She would have preferred to have let Qin Xiaoliu have his way with her the day before than face this.

Grandfather, where are you? If you don't send someone to save Yingxue soon, I'll never speak to you again.

Zhao Wan'er's sobs grew more frantic.

Scarface reached Zhou Yingxue and began to grope her face.

"Damn, this feels incredible!"

His hand inched downward slowly.

Zhou Yingxue's slender frame shuddered uncontrollably, tears streaming down her face as she closed her eyes in utter despair.

Beside her, Zhao Wan'er burst into loud sobs, her heart yearning for a legendary hero to come and save both her and Zhou Yingxue.

Just as Scarface's hand nearly grazed Zhou Yingxue's chest,

Tiger entered and announced,

"Boss, someone's here—a real good-looking young guy!"

"He claims he's here to discuss business with you."

Scarface swiveled around, annoyance written all over his face.

"Damn it, who's messing up my good time?"

"Thinks he's worthy of doing business with me?"

"Send him packing, or I'll chop him up and feed him to the dogs."

"I've got no patience for pretty boys."

He then smeared his hand across the faces of Zhou Yingxue and Zhao Wan'er, smirking lasciviously.

"Heh, nothing beats the company of beauties."

His hand wandered toward Zhao Wan'er's thigh.

"Sweetheart, I haven't even touched you yet. Why the mess?"

He probed further up her thigh as he spoke.

Zhao Wan'er fought back desperately, tears gushing like a fountain.

Tiger looked on, gulping down his saliva.

Damn, I can only imagine what it feels like to touch those creamy white legs!

"Boss, he's barged in."

As Scarface was about to proceed...

Two men backed into the room, facing away from Scarface.

"Man, you're really not showing any respect. I came here in good faith to talk business, and you shut me out."

"That's not how you treat a guest."

Qin Xiaoliu sauntered in, a mocking grin on his face as he surveyed the scene.

Son of a gun, you really know how to have a wicked good time!

Scarface spun back to confront the trio.

"What the hell are you doing? How did you let him through?"

Third turned, a look of misery on his face, and said to Scarface,

"Boss, we couldn't hold him back. We're no match for him!"

Scarface, eyeing Third's bruised visage, realized they must have already clashed.

The three of them hadn't laid a finger on him?

Scarface scrutinized Qin Xiaoliu with a keen eye.

He was well aware of his brother's capabilities, yet they hadn't been enough to stop this man who carried an air of handsomeness about him.

With a hint of gravity on his face, Scarface bowed slightly with his hands clasped together.

"I wonder, what path do you tread, brother?"

"And how did you come to find this place?"

"What brings you to seek out my brothers and me?"

Zhou Yingxue, upon hearing someone enter, opened her eyes.

The sight of Qin Xiaoliu ignited a spark of hope in her gaze.

She didn't believe that Qin Xiaoliu could rescue her and Zhao Wan'er from the clutches of these five menacing figures.

Yet, knowing that Qin Xiaoliu was aware of her identity, she was certain he had relayed the information back to the Zhou family.

Her grandfather would surely send help.

Zhao Wan'er caught wind of the disturbance as well, but she was bound back-to-back with Zhou Yingxue and couldn't see the newcomer.

In her heart, she fervently hoped that rescue had come for her and Zhou Yingxue.
