Chapter 616: Chapter 616
This is already against the rules of the game.
Yet they accuse Xiao Yebai of being underhanded?
Zhan Dapeng was about to speak in anger when Xiao Yebai raised a hand to stop him and said indifferently, "If it’s two, then let it be two."
After all, the other side couldn’t wait for them to speak again so they could simply keep all three hostages. It’s like a penalized player arguing with the referee and, as a result, getting ejected from the game. ɪꜰ ʏᴏᴜ ᴡᴀɴᴛ ᴛᴏ ʀᴇᴀᴅ ᴍᴏʀᴇ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs, ᴘʟᴇᴀsᴇ ᴠɪsɪᴛ 𝗻𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹✶𝗳𝗶𝗿𝗲✶𝗻𝗲𝘁
There’s no choice, the referee is the other party, and the hostages are in their hands. They are at a disadvantage.
It was clear that the hostages were not in this room. Moreover, the other party had planned from the start to take at least one hostage.
Several men rushed into the cabin where Xiao Shumei and her sisters were being held.
To take away one of the three sisters.
The answer was self-evident.
Several black hands reached out for Xiao Shumei, the eldest sister of the Xiao Family.
Xiao Shuju and Xiao Shuzhu were screaming, extending their ten fingers, trying to turn into clawing monsters to wrestle Xiao Shumei away from the men.
"Let her go! You bastards, scoundrels, may thunder strike you down!"
"I curse you! Release her—"
The men intent on taking Xiao Shumei had not expected these two women to pounce on them so fiercely. For a moment, they were overwhelmed and their faces were scratched with claw marks by the long nails of Xiao Shuju and her sister. As a result, those in black, once scratched, turned their rage on Xiao Shuju and Xiao Shuzhu without any courtesy.
Xiao Shuju and Xiao Shuzhu were pushed to the ground and against the wall, and moreover, they were brutally beaten with punches and kicks by these men who clearly didn’t regard them as women.
Xiao Shuzhu’s face was kicked so hard it swelled up like a pig’s.
Even worse was Xiao Shuju, who clutched her chest as if she was about to cough up blood.
Xiao Shumei quickly yelled, "Stop! Please, stop!"
Seeing that the men wouldn’t listen, Xiao Shumei became furious, "I’m telling you, if you kill them, I’ll die with them! Then, you won’t have even a single hostage left in your hands!"
Only at her words did those men stop.
Xiao Shuju and Xiao Shuzhu, now looking like wounded soldiers, crawled to each other, propping themselves up and holding their breath, ready to rise again and fight for Xiao Shumei.
"Third sister, Fourth sister," Xiao Shumei shook her head at them.
Xiao Shuju immediately glared and said anxiously, "Eldest sister, you can’t—"
"Can the two of you fight off so many people? Besides, there’s a saying—’where there’s life, there’s hope.’ Listen to me, save these lives. We can’t all die here. If that happened, it would leave a worse impact on Dad and Yebai. Besides, I brought this disaster upon us, Fourth sister knows this," Xiao Shumei said, her demeanor transcending life and death.
"How can this be your fault alone, Eldest sister?" Xiao Shuzhu wiped the tears welling up at the corner of her eye and said, "If there’s blame, it’s on every one of us, not just you."
"Right!" Xiao Shuju nodded.
Xiao Shumei’s expression was so calm, like she had truly turned herself into a robot, "Now, we don’t need impulsiveness, we don’t need emotions. You should understand, the reason we keep making mistakes is because we are not rational enough. We can’t bring more trouble to Yebai and Dad. When you go back, you must listen to them."
"Listen carefully. After I’m gone, the Xiao Family has Yebai, nothing to be afraid of. But for the Zhao Family, help me tell Mengjin, tell her, at her age, I too lost my mother, so it’s not something to fear. She’s the eldest sister in her family, she needs to take on that responsibility. Take care of her two younger brothers, help her father."
