阿丁 suddenly spoke up, "Brother, take it! Mom's health is poor, and my sister wants to study. She wants to leave this terrible place!"
I sat back down. "You should go home now. I still have to talk with the professor. We'll meet again if fate allows."
"Chinese brother... If you ever need anything, call me. I won't back down!" A Mao clutched the 20,000 yuan tightly, his eyes glistening with tears.
"Hurry, before he comes out." I unpacked the cigarettes and alcohol, poured a bit into a cup, and then had them hide the stuff in their clothes before leaving quickly.
If the old fox discovered I was doing things behind his back, he'd definitely kill them in a fit of rage.
After sending them off, I hugged the bag of money and fell asleep on the sofa in the private room.
I was so tired. I hadn't slept the entire night, and my eyes wouldn't stay open.
… I don't know how much time passed, but I felt a pair of hands touching my face and woke up with a start.
"Yan, Yan Zi, what are you doing?" I was startled, quickly sat up, and felt relieved to see my clothes were still on.
The handbag fell to the ground.
When did she come in and start watching me sleep?
"Hehe," Yan Zi withdrew her hand and laughed at my comical expression. "What, afraid I'll eat you up? I barely touched you before you woke up!"
"It's not that..." I scratched my head, bent down, and picked up the handbag. "Do you have a bank card on you?"
"No, I usually use Ning Ge's card or have Tang Tian pay. Why do you ask?"
"Alright, take a look." I opened the handbag, revealing a pile of yuan. Yan Zi was stunned.
"My God, is this... your payment?"
"Yeah, take some and spend it. How can a woman not have cash?" I took out 10,000 yuan and stuffed it into her hand, generously.
Yan Zi held the money and looked at me with a dazed expression. "Ping An, imagine if we were in China right now, how great that would be."
I understood what she meant but didn't want to acknowledge it.
There was something in her eyes that I couldn't quite read.
I diverted my gaze to the glaring sunlight outside the window.
"Creek"
The door opened, and Tang Tian walked in, saying, "Brother, you're awake! Yan Jie, Ning Ge wants you and your brother to go to the professor's office!"
"Okay, I got it." Yan Zi put the money in her bag and said, "Silly brother, I don't lack money. Ning Ge is very generous to me!"
Then she pinched my face hard with both hands, turned, and walked out the door with swaying hips.
"..." I rubbed my sore face, speechless.
Are women always this vengeful?
Tang Tian teased, "You two have a great sibling bond. Anyone who didn't know would think you're a couple."
"Tang, you're so funny. If Ning Ge hears that, it'll cause trouble."
I grabbed the handbag and walked out of the private room, feeling dizzy and sore all over.
After barely sleeping for an hour, they called me to the office as if my life depended on it. Most likely, it was a command from the military commander.
Soon, I reached the old fox Ace's office.
He surprisingly praised me and said the military commander confirmed that the beer-bellied general and his eldest son were dead.
The military commander's position was secure, and he was delighted. He promised to protect me and said he would arrange for me to meet him and serve in his camp when the time was right.
This was meant for Ning Ge, implying that Ning Ge shouldn't take me in as I could only serve the military commander in the future.
Ning Ge wasn't stupid and didn't dare offend the military commander. He just kept saying it was up to my personal will.
Successfully, he passed the responsibility to me.
I wasn't foolish either and immediately pretended to agree, saying I'd visit the military commander after the Mid-Autumn Festival.
After some boring brainwashing, I left the office with Ning Ge.
As soon as we exited the casino, Ning Ge eagerly asked, "Ping An, what are your plans?"
Feigning helplessness, I replied, "Ning Ge, I don't plan to go to the military commander, but I can't refuse him either. I have to pretend to agree. Besides, my cousin is your person, and I support you unconditionally. We're family, after all."
"Ping An, you're smart, just like your cousin. Come on, let's go back to the park. I need to reward you properly."
Ning Ge patted my back with satisfaction and then hugged the graceful Yan Zi, heading to his Audi.
"Hey, little darling, get in the car! Or do you want to spend the night with the old geezer?" Liu Shiyi teased me with a lewd expression.
Damn it…
"Superintendent, where am I small?" I muttered as I climbed into the back seat, facing Maoding Lun's murderous gaze.
"Tsk, tsk, how big? Let me see tonight."
Liu Shiyi shamelessly squeezed in, making me sit awkwardly between him and Maoding Lun.
It was like sitting on pins and needles.
The lackeys started the engine, and the three cars drove towards the KK park.
I didn't know what happened to the 13 women yet and didn't dare to ask, fearing it would have the opposite effect.
I would figure everything out once we got back to the park.
Sitting between these two perverts was bad enough, and Liu Shiyi's hands were constantly trying to touch my chest or thighs.
Damn it, I barely restrained my anger and didn't kick him out of the car.
After a while.
Maoding Lun suddenly said, "You got lucky this time. The military commander agreed to protect you. By the way, I took care of those two. Old Niu Baoguo has to take five urns back to Thailand. Hahaha."
... I had nothing to say and just clutched the handbag, staring at the forest outside.
Seeing I ignored him, Maoding Lun also shut up.
With Liu Shiyi by my side, he didn't dare act rashly and pretended to sleep.
I couldn't wait to get out of there. Liu Shiyi was disgusting, holding my arm like a little woman.
Ugh!
Once I got back to the dorm, I had to shower and change clothes. It was so gross!
Soon, we arrived at the park and stopped in front of the office building.
As soon as I got out of the car, Liu Shiyi ordered, "The medical ship from the high seas is coming today. Go and keep an eye on it."
The high seas medical ship is coming?
I looked around but didn't see any unfamiliar doctors or nurses.
We hadn't seen any medical refrigerated trucks with "high seas medical ship" written on them when we came in!
"Understood, I'll get ready." Maoding Lun glared at me before leaving with his lackeys.
I tugged at my sticky clothes and approached Ning Ge. "Ning Ge, I want to go back to the dorm to shower and change. I'm covered in blood and uncomfortable."
The lab coat had been thrown away and burned at the casino.
"Alright, go rest. I'll have Tang Tian call you later."
Ning Ge nodded, hugging the delicate Yan Zi and heading into the office building with Liu Shiyi.
The weight on my mind finally lifted.
For now, my life was safe.
Next, whether we could use the high seas medical ship to leave the park was up to fate.
