Chapter 348: Probing
I glared back at Maggie. “That’s right. How would I know we’d run into a group of animals? If I had known earlier, I would have killed them with the car. Seriously!”
From the corner of my eye, I glanced at the two masked men. Although they didn’t move, their gazes were fixed on our faces as we spoke.
Mai Qi said, “It’s too late now. So what should we do?”
I shrugged casually, “What can we do? We’ve been kidnapped. Hey big brothers, how much money do you want? Just give us a number and save yourself the trouble of contacting our family members. Honestly, I don’t know if you’d be able to find my family member.”
Mai Qi concurred, “That’s right. Tell us how much do you want? If we scrape together the money, we’ll give it to you directly. Things are going to get a lot more complicated if you try to blackmail our families. You’ll fail to get the money, and things are going to get real bad for you.”
The two masked men were unmoved.
Jing Ni sighed. “It looks like they’re not doing this for money. They’re seeking revenge.”
The two masked men’s gazes fell on Jing Ni. Mai Qi and I looked at each other, and we grumbled internally.
Jing Ni straightened her back and blocked us behind her. She smiled and said, “If your target is me, you should let them go. If you’ve done a thorough background check, you should know offending them won’t get you any benefits.”
I nudged Jing Ni and pulled her behind me. Gritting my teeth, I said, “Are you crazy? Are you out of your mind?”
Mai Qi tutted, “You want to be a hero even at a time like this? Someone really needs to check your brain!”
Jing Ni frowned as we pulled her behind us. “They’re clearly thugs hired by the Shi Family. So I’m their target. I’m the one who started this, so let me solve it on my own. Why are you two dragging yourselves into this?” Jing Ni looked at the two masked men calmly, “You are just following orders. Call your boss and tell him you need to let these two go. That is my free advice to you.”
The two masked men had been quietly listening to us, but at this moment, one of them finally spoke. “Ladies, save your breath. No one is leaving. Don’t try to probe our background either. We have studied every single one of you. I’d advise you to take a rest because we still have a long way to go. If you have anything to say, you can wait until we reach our destination.”
The three of us looked at each other. I shrugged. “He has a point. In that case, should we sleep for now?”
Mai Qi and Jing Ni nodded. “There’s nothing else to do anyway.”
Jing Ni sat in the middle. Mai Qi and I leaned against her shoulders. We slept easily.
My Sister Xing cells were passive. My heart was as still as water, I didn’t hear the sound of blood flowing in my ears. I thought to myself. What is going on? Does this mean I believe that we’re going to be safe?
I was like Hulk who just came into his power. I couldn’t control my power freely yet.
Then again, if I could unleash that power, what could I do? There were two unknown masked men, a driver, and a speeding van.
The two men were right. We should converse energy and see what was awaiting us before we made a decision.
Being tied up, there was nothing we could do.
However, it was quite uncomfortable being kidnapped like this. I wonder if Su Qian and the others had noticed our kidnapping.
I believed Jing Ni and Mai Qi were so calm because they knew there was always someone trailing me.
