Chapter 187 - 187 White Powder
187 White Powder
The scar-faced man grabbed the white powder from him and glared at him angrily. “Where did you find this?”
When the short man saw that his leader was angry, he timidly pointed at the drawer and said shakily, “Th-there.”
The scar-faced man hurriedly pushed him aside and searched the drawer.
The short man was bewildered. He drew closer and asked, “Brother, what are you looking for?”
“Stop blathering!” The scar-faced man pushed his big head aside in annoyance and pointed at the others. He ordered, “Search the room carefully. Leave no stone unturned!”
The other two men snapped out of their trance and hurriedly searched the room. After a long time, they found 2.5 kg of white powder.
The scar-faced man pointed at the packets of white powder on the ground, his eyes shining. “We’re rich. We’re rich!”
“Brother,” the short man was still confused. “What is this stuff? Is it really valuable?”
“It’s priceless!” The scar-faced man hugged the bags. He impatiently tried to open a bag and enjoy it himself.
The other two men hurriedly explained to the short man what they had found. The short man finally understood. He said with delight, “We’ve accidentally found treasure? How lucky!”
Shen Yin saw their lustful gazes when they looked at the bags. She hurriedly stopped them. “Don’t open the bags!”
The scar-faced man glared at her in displeasure. “Your man hasn’t come to your rescue. You’ve no right to talk!”
He motioned to his subordinate. The man with small eyes immediately smiled slyly and reached out to gag her.
Shen Yin turned her head aside to avoid his hand. She frowned and glared at them. She suddenly had an idea. She changed her tone and said flirtatiously, “I warn you not to touch these things. I’ve seen plenty of such things in that President’s house. He’s especially generous when he purchases such things. If you open the bag, you might lose a large sum of money. Besides, once you’re addicted, even kidnapping ten people like me won’t be enough to feed your habit.”
The scar-faced man gestured to the others not to move. He walked over and studied her thoroughly. “You say that the President also likes this?”
“That’s right.” Shen Yin lied without batting an eyelid. Shen Luo was shocked to hear this. She had never thought that Lian Jing was into drugs!
The scar-faced man immediately beamed. “In that case, we can get more money for you and this stuff?”
Shen Yin did not waver when it came to getting money out of Lian Jing. “That’s right. When he sees how much powder you have, he will definitely be willing to make a deal with you. Think about it carefully. We’ve already broken up. He might not be willing to ransom me. But this changes the situation. He might not mind ransoming me to obtain it.”
The scar-faced man thought about it and felt that what she said made sense. He immediately ordered his men to put down the powder.
The man with small eyes immediately complained, “Brother, we have so much. What’s wrong with enjoying a bit of it? Don’t listen to her. It might be one of her schemes!”
Shen Yin calmly explained, “I’m already in your power. Of course I have to prioritize my survival. I’m really worried that he won’t care about me. Since you have the powder, you should use it as a bargaining chip.”
When she saw that they were partly persuaded, she continued to embroider her lies. “Besides, I’m not trying to frighten you. He might be a President, but ever since he got into drugs, he has lost a lot of money. He might not even be able to maintain his status as a President for much longer. What about you? If you can get the money, you might as well spend it on other pleasures. Why acquire such an expensive habit?”
Shen Luo stared at her in disbelief. No matter how naive she was, she did not believe that Lian Jing had really fallen into the trap of drugs.
She inwardly resented Shen Yin for her eloquence. In their situation, she could even dissuade their kidnappers from using drugs?
When she saw that Shen Yin was almost out of danger, she hurriedly screamed to attract their attention. “Sister, it’s been so long but Brother-in-law has not contacted you. Is he coming to save us or not?!”
Shen Yin turned to glare at her coldly.
The scar-faced man gripped Shen Yin’s phone and sent another message to the number they had called. “If there is no news in five minutes, we will kill them.”
After sending the message, he grabbed Shen Yin’s collar. “You’re such an interesting woman, but your man doesn’t care about you. You’re better off as my woman instead. Otherwise I would have gone into all this trouble for nothing.”
Shen Luo had been waiting for this moment. She had deliberately fallen into these kidnappers’ trap to drag Shen Yin down. But Shen Yin’s silver tongue had almost saved her.
Anyway, Tian Ying knew where she was. At the right moment, he would capture the kidnappers and obtain the ransom money from Lian Jing. Then she could also malign Shen Yin and say that she had been violated. She would kill two birds with one stone.
