Seeing the madam's brazen attitude, Mo Yan's heart sank; this secret brothel indeed had powerful backing—otherwise, the woman's reaction would not be so. It seemed that forcing her way in today would not work.
"What does the madam require to release them?"
The madam's alluring eyes sized up Mo Yan as though she were appraising goods, with ill intent, she said, "If you agree to stay, not to mention him, even Xing Er, the old woman will let her go straight. How about that?"
"Yan girl, don't worry about us, these people are ruthless bully who will stop at nothing, you should leave quickly!" Lizhong cried out in pain. This was clearly a matter for the Li Family—it shouldn't involve Yan girl, it shouldn't!
Mo Yan consoled, "Grandfather Li, don't worry, I'll be fine." Then she said to the madam, "You know that is impossible. You've detained Grandfather Li simply for silver. Tell me, how much do you want before you'll release them?"
