“Dear Miss Ye, we have a little issue now. Our people have just come up with a small additional request.”

Ye Tianxin was startled and concerned, but she still calmly asked, “Let us know what it is. Since you are willing to give us protection, I will try to agree with your request as much as possible.”

“My dear brothers here have not had a taste of women for almost half a year, so we need a few women from your group to go with them to look at the scenery around the area. It should not be too much to ask, correct? Of course, do not worry; with my additional conditions, we will not include you because you are our most noble guest.”

Everyone figured out that they were interested in the women of the project team.

Ye Tianxin sneered and said, “Excuse me, but I cannot agree with the request…”

The lead man with sunglasses slightly lifted the corners of his lips and interrupted Ye Tianxin before she even finished talking.

“Why not? You don’t have a choice. Also, Miss Ye, can you please put away that little toy in your hand? I guarantee that it will never hurt me. Please believe me; my people will shoot at you and turn you into a filter the minute you pull the trigger.”

Right after he finished talking, a group of gangsters stepped out behind him and walked toward the project team.

Ye Tianxin shouted, “Stop! I can give you a lot more money. Please don’t hurt anyone!”

The lead man waved his hand to stop his people and said, “I want both money and the women. Also, I have just changed my mind. I prefer volunteers. I am going to count to three. If nobody volunteers, I will kill one person every five seconds. I am a civilized person; I do not like to use force.”

Ye Tianxin was furious and pointed her gun straight at the lead man. She could at least take one person’s life before she died.

The lead man seemed to ignore Ye Tianxin’s gun and started to count. “One…”

Ye Tianxin had a fierce struggle in her heart. What was she going to do? Even if she could kill eight people by firing all the eight bullets in the magazine, these gangsters could kill the entire project team within less time.

“Two…”

The lead man pointed his gun at Wei Shaodong and frightened the life out of him. Wei Shaodong shouted urgently, “Luo Huayi! You are a project team staff; should you not act as a model? You are not a virgin anymore. We would all be grateful if you took one for the team. We promise not to tell people about what happened here today. What do you say?”

Nobody responded to his words. The people from the project team reacted to Wei Shaodong by having the men form a circle to protect the women inside. The men made a fully enclosed shield to cover the women. They stared at Wei Shaodong with anger. Many people could not help but spit at him to express their disdain.

Tang Song was irritated and somehow no longer felt nervous. He stared at Wei Shaodong and scolded, “You bastard! Should a man be saying something like that?”

Wei Shaodong also shouted back. “What is wrong with sacrificing a few women to save all of us?”

“Three…”

“Ladies, I wish I was a woman so that I could replace you…”

Ye Tianxin suddenly shouted angrily, “Shut up, already!” Everyone at the scene turned to pay full attention to Ye Tianxin because she made a gesture that nobody could ever imagine her making.
