Chapter 38 (2/2)
Chu Yunsheng nodded his head and said sternly, “I’ll try to believe you, but you need to remember every single word you have just said. You can tell me where the jade pendant is now.”
Lin Shuiyao smiled with relief, “It was a birthday present that a company director gave to his son. I was at his birthday party that day,” she paused for a second, her eyes slightly moved, causing the light to flash in her eyes. She then carried on, “as far as I know, they were at Jin ling city before the Sun disappeared, As for the specific name, I’ll tell you when we get to Jin ling city, I hope you would understand…”
Chu Yunsheng snorted with a faint of anger, “so, are you threatening me right now? If you don’t believe me, how can we work together?”
Lin Shuiyao shook her head and apologized, “I’m sorry, I know that I shouldn’t do this, but I’m really scared that you are going to abandon me later. If you were me, you would do the same, wouldn’t you?”
Chu Yunsheng didn’t answer her. Instead, he asked her, “you really think that jade pendant is important to me?”
She had a sly smile on her face, “when we were on the roof before, I already knew that you were looking at that women’s pendant for the whole time.”
Chu Yunsheng was shocked, this girl wasn’t talking much at that time. Apart from being held as a hostage by Gu Liming, the whole incident had nothing to do with her. He didn’t expect that she was such an astute observer.
She was a smart and cautious woman, this was the impression she gave to Chu Yunsheng. But then again, which woman wasn’t smart in the entertainment industry?
He understood the reason why she wanted to do that. In such a dangerous world, how could anyone build up trust with a stranger so quickly? She had to keep something with her, so the deal would be able to last longer.
But it didn’t mean that he was going to accept it. Although the map was important to him, four maps couldn’t be collected in a short period of time. If she thought that she could use this to control him, then she was wrong.
When talking to the smart people, Chu Yunsheng didn’t want to deny that he needed the pendant. He gave Lin Shuiyao a friendly smile and said, “you are right. But unfortunately it is not my way of doing things, I don’t think we can work together, so bye- bye!”
Just right after he said it, he opened the door and stepped outside quickly. Actually, he was worried that he might not be able to refuse the temptation of the deal.
“You!” the expression on her face instantly changed, and she was terrified. She didn’t expect that this would be the outcome, so she panicked. Chu Yunsheng might not need her information, but she definitely needed his protection. Although it was an unfair deal, she didn’t have other choices.
She gritted her teeth and followed him, “okay, you win, I can tell you who has it!” She shouted in the hallway.
But Chu Yunsheng did not pay attention to what she said. Instead, his heart was jumping rapidly at the moment. Just a moment ago, through the window at a corner, he saw a naked woman appear on the street!
It was the sign of a tentacle monster!
He couldn’t kill this type of monster at the moment. If he encountered one, he would need to run away as fast as he could.
Lin Shuiyao didn’t know what was going on. She thought that Chu Yunsheng was pretending that he didn’t hear her. The man wanted to humiliate her. But what could she do? She followed them all the way here, just hoping that they could help her. “You… you want me to beg you?” She felt humiliated, and her voice was shaking.
Chu Yunsheng was so scared right now. He was scared that the monster might catch the noise, so he immediately pointed at Lin Shuiyao and hissed, “You shut up! Silent!”
At the same time, he quickly signaled Yu Xiaohai to switch off the flashlight and leaned against the wall. He also switched on the infrared sensor, and carefully detected the movement inside the building. While he was doing this, his heartbeats did not slow down for a single second!
Lin Shuiyao’s body started to shake uncontrollably. But it was not because Chu Yunsheng hissed at her, it was because she knew Chu Yunsheng was under extreme stress, and whatever the thing was, it was definitely more dangerous than three red-sh.e.l.led insects!
