C6 Good and Bad

I don't know who made the call, but I'm especially grateful to the owner. However, I am grateful as I am still in danger. My heart is in my throat.

I wanted to run away, but with my two bodyguards in my grasp, it was obvious that they weren't planning on letting me go. After all, Han Xue just said that if I ran, she would cripple the two of them.

I still understand the principle of 'Undying Daoist'.

However, I am truly unwilling to surrender like this.

What to do! What should I do!

At this moment, I finally understood what it meant to be an ant on a hot pan. In a room where the temperature was clearly appropriate, beads of sweat covered my forehead and my body was extremely tense.

Just when I was thinking about bribing the bodyguard, Han Xue hung up the phone. She stared at me with a gloomy expression. "Let him go."

"Yes." The two bodyguards spoke at the same time as expected.

The sudden change left me at a loss for what to do. I was happy to be spared, but I was at a loss when I saw that they had already predicted the outcome.

There was also some fear of the unknown.

It was as if the bodyguards were relieved when the call came in. Now that they thought about it, they probably knew that the call was for my sake.

But I just arrived at the clubhouse, who would save me? It couldn't be Yuri, she had warned me. No one was protecting me.

Xu Yan is my cousin. She should be able to save me, but in this clubhouse, she's just an outer woman. She doesn't have that much power.

"Still not getting out?"

Han Xue coldly stared at me. Her eyes seemed to have been refined, wishing she could cut me into a thousand pieces.

"Yes." I hurriedly calmed my mind and replied in a low voice. I casually pulled on some clothes before escaping the room.

Only when I was far away from the room did I dare to slow down and breathe a sigh of relief.

Damn, this woman was too abnormal!

I cursed in my heart as the image of her final gaze involuntarily appeared in my mind. I helplessly shook my head. What the hell is this woman doing?

It was like he had a huge grudge against me.

I couldn't figure it out, so I could only temporarily suppress the doubts in my heart and quickly returned to my room. At a time like this, there wasn't a place that could make me feel more at ease than my room.

I drank several cups of warm water before I managed to suppress the chill in my heart. Sitting on the soft bed, I have mixed feelings.

Can I really stay here?

Any of these guests can easily crush me to death …

At that moment, my hand rang. After so many years of habit, I picked up my phone and clicked on the message. Looking at Yuli's smiling expression, I suppressed my displeasure and replied, What's wrong?

Yuri was my guide, but she didn't show up to save me in that dangerous situation. This made me somewhat resentful towards her.

After all, if not for that phone call just now, I might have been crippled by now.

"I know that you're angry at me, but I know that you won't be in any danger. As for the reason, I can't tell you right now." Yuli quickly recovered.

Looking at the news, I coldly snorted. You all know that I'm the only one involved.

In this minute, I felt as if I was being controlled by something, and everything that happened was arranged by the person behind the scenes!

"Li-jie, I'm not angry, why wouldn't I dare?" I quickly replied with my finger.

But when the message was sent, even I could sense the displeasure in the words. When he was about to withdraw, Yullie had already sent him a message.

"Alright, within my capabilities, I will protect you." Behind these words, there were a few smiling expressions.

Seeing this, I didn't want to pay any attention to her. Within the limits of her ability, it was hard to say what the "scope of ability" was. Even if something were to happen to me, if she were to say that it wasn't within her capabilities, I wouldn't be able to say anything.

I fumbled for a cigarette and lit it. I took a long drag, thinking to tell her I'd quit.

I'll return the money I owe to Xu Yan to her when I go out to work. Even if he had to go to the construction site to move the bricks, it would be better than here.

"Li-jie, I feel like I'm not very suitable …"

Ding, transfer prompt, please check.

Before I could finish, Yuri sent me a transfer message. I couldn't clearly see the number of words on it, so I subconsciously opened it with my finger. However, when I opened it, I discovered that she had transferred 10,000 yuan to me!

The four zeros scared me out of my wits. What does that mean? I asked Julie.

But she told me that this was Han Xue's reward for me. Then she gave me five thousand dollars, saying that Han Xue gave it to me to calm me down.

Seeing Han Xue's name, I accepted the money and didn't feel uncomfortable anymore. It was only right that I should have the money after what that woman had done to me.

In just a few minutes, so much money has been added to my WeChat. I didn't even dare to think about it before!

Do it! I want to continue!

I gritted my teeth. Although I didn't know who was protecting me, I was certain that the person behind the scenes didn't want anything to happen to me. With a guarantee of safety, he could make a lot of money if he had to suffer a little. Why not?!

I deleted the new text and sent a thank you to Julie, but after thinking about it, I transferred two thousand dollars to her. You've brought me hard work, Miss Lily, and I'm here to buy you a cup of coffee to cheer you up.

After sending the message, Yuli replied that this was her job, so I didn't need to be polite. I could just treat her like my own sister.

I have already made up my mind to continue living here. I really hope that she is my blood sister so that when something happens to me, she will protect me with everything she has.

But these little thoughts couldn't be expressed. I politely spoke to her and chatted for a bit. After she gave me back the money that I transferred to her, she transferred another 5000 yuan to me, saying that this was her elder sister's greeting gift to her younger brother.

I didn't reject her. Since we've already reached this point, it would be a lie if we continue rejecting her. After receiving the money, I decided to go back to the street and pick out a gift for her.

Just now, Han Xue had been torturing him quite heavily. Now that he had relaxed, he felt that his entire body was sore and numb.

It was hard to imagine that he could feel such a heavy sense of tiredness just by tensing his muscles. Use the words on the internet: God knows what I just experienced.

Putting down my cell phone, I threw my tattered clothes into the trash can and took a long hot shower before finally getting rid of my tiredness.

After coming out of the bathroom, I turned on my phone to find Xu Yan and get to know her inside story. I didn't intend to return this first sum of money to her.

Instead, he prepared to keep it in his hands and help him build up a path. However, just as he turned on his phone and was about to send the message, he heard someone knocking on his door.

"Who is it?" I asked in a high voice, hastily pulling on some clothes. Could it be that Julie is here to take me in again?

Didn't you just say that you would let me rest today?

Who would have thought that when he opened the door, he would see five or six strong men standing outside. Judging from their clothing, they should be the men's outer ring inside.

I looked at the person in the lead. He had a handsome face, sharp eyebrows, a straight nose, and full lips. "But it seemed to me that his face was a little stiff, as if he had had a plastic surgery.

"Hello, is something the matter?" I asked with a light smile.

Looking at their aggressive gazes, I knew that they had come with ill intentions. I just didn't expect them to arrive so quickly.

"I'm Zhao Yi." The leader of the group said coldly.

He didn't ask what I meant. He just pushed me away and walked into the room. He casually sat down on the sofa with his legs crossed, as if he was the owner of the room.

The men who were still blocking the door squeezed into the room. I helplessly moved out of the way and sat on the sofa in front of Zhao Yi. After slightly adjusting my language, I said, "I don't know why you've come …"

I didn't finish my sentence. After all, we just met and I don't want to be a coward. If not, I will be ridden by these people in the future.

"Cheng Tao, right?" Zhao Yi grabbed the cigarette on the tea table and looked at it. Then, with a look of disdain, he threw the cigarette on the table.

The brawny guy sitting beside him glanced at me. He tactfully took out a cigar from his pocket and handed it over. He bent down and respectfully lit it up. "Brother Yi, smoke this."

Zhao Yi nodded in satisfaction. He put the cigar in his mouth, tilted his head, and moved closer to light the fire.

I didn't say anything, knowing it was a blow to me.

Just as I was thinking about whether I should call Yuri directly, I suddenly recalled what Xu Yan told me earlier. Before my wings grow, it's best to build a good relationship with these people.

Unless, the person protecting me has a power that these people do not dare to offend. Or perhaps, my existence can give the clubhouse a value greater than theirs.

At the moment, I don't have that ability.

"Brother Yi, little brother is new. I don't know the rules, nor do I know if I did anything wrong. I need you to forgive me, brother." I took in a deep breath without a sound and said with a fawning smile.

He kept his eyes closed the whole time and ignored me after I heard this. Just as I was thinking about whether I should say something else, he suddenly chuckled and said, "You can be considered to be sensible. Then, I won't blame you for not coming to pay my respects."

"Brother Yi is magnanimous. If it was anyone else, you'd have been beaten to death long ago." the man who had lit the cigarette mocked.

I glanced up at the man. His fox-like eyes were beautiful, but at the moment I felt particularly obstructed.

However, due to the circumstances, he had no choice but to submit, "Yes, yes. I'm the one who is insensible."

In this kind of situation, most of them come here to ask for money. Initially, I only wanted to use money to build some connections, but looking at these people in front of me, I felt that they weren't worth it.

Because of this, no matter what they say next, I will just turn it over and say the same thing. I just admit that I don't know what's going on, but I won't mention money.

"Alright, let's not beat around the bush." Zhao Yi finally could not hold it in anymore. He sat up straight and used both hands to support his lower jaw as he stared at me. "In this clubhouse, other than a few male outfits, I, Zhao Yi, am the one protecting everyone else."

"Brothers, honor me. I'll let them earn a lot of money." At this point, he smiled meaningfully, "Cheng Tao, you are also sensible. You know the rules and you know what to do."

I sneered in my heart. After all, the reason I said all that was said was to ask for money. If I had said it out loud earlier, I wouldn't have been so disgusted.

Why would I want to be mixed up with such a mob?

"I just came into this line of work, and I don't understand some of the rules yet. Can you give me a reminder, brothers?" I chuckled, thinking that my words were watertight.
