C66 (1/2)
With one hand, Jiang Liu'er pulled Xuanyuan Mingxue, while with the other, he had no way of blocking the four people rushing towards him. Just as he was about to drag Xuanyuan Mingxue behind him, his hands loosened and he turned around to see that Xuanyuan Mingxue had already been carried by two people and thrown into the car.
”Alright, I'll go by myself.”
In the current situation, it was impossible for Jiang Liu'er to save Xuanyuan Mingxue even with so many people around.
As soon as Jiang Liu'er finished speaking, the four of them quickly wrapped a black bag around his head and roughly pushed him into the car.
With two buzzing sounds, the car started.
Jiang Liu'er had something wrapped around her head, making it impossible for her to see her surroundings. She initially wanted to use her hearing to distinguish the environment, but the people in the car were unusually quiet. Other than the sound of the car, there was no other movement.
He tried to move his arm, but it was immediately kicked. Although the strength was not great, the contact between the shoe and the meat was more painful.
”Xuanyuan Mingxue, Mingxue.” Jiang Liu'er tried to sound him out, but there was no response. He was a little unsure. In addition, he couldn't see or move, so he was a little worried.
Just as Jiang Liu'er was trying to figure out how to ensure that Xuanyuan Mingxue was safe, the car suddenly came to a halt. The inertia caused him to roll towards one direction, and a force came from his arm, firmly locking him in place.
This force on Jiang Liu'er's arm allowed him to clearly feel it. Before he could have too many thoughts, the door was pulled open and Jiang Liu'er was forcefully pulled away from the car by a few people, falling onto a soft cushion.
When he landed on the ground, the black cloth covering his head was immediately pulled off. When he lit up the room, he could not help but feel that his arm was still tied up. He tried to blink before he could clearly see what was in front of him.
”What, you're surprised to see me?”
At this moment, the person who spoke was someone that Jiang Liu'er did not expect. Murong Batian, he never would have thought that Murong Batian would use such an extraordinary method to find him.
As Murong Batian spoke, he snapped his fingers. The person following him immediately took out a boss chair and placed it behind him. He didn't even look at it and just sat down on the chair.
Jiang Liu'er was worried about Xuanyuan Mingxue, so she used her peripheral vision to scout for Xuanyuan Mingxue's figure, but she didn't realize that Murong Batian had seen all of Jiang Liu'er's actions. The corners of his mouth twitched, and his sinister smile combined with the vicissitudes of his vision made him look like a cunning old fox.
Compared to Murong Batian, Jiang Liu'er's intelligence and ability were comparable. However, in front of Murong Batian, Jiang Liu'er's experience was nothing. This was what Murong Batian was so proud of.
”Actually, I've wanted to chat with you for a long time, but I feel like everyone has been busy. Moreover, I've said before that I would give you time to consider coming to my company to work, but …”
After Murong Batian finished speaking, the smile on his face disappeared and was replaced with a cold look in the corner of his eyes. His bloodthirsty gaze was filled with coldness and even the subordinates behind him felt that it was a bit scary.
”But it seems that my concession is not as respectful as I should have been. Instead, it makes me feel that I, Murong Batian, am someone who is easily bullied. This … I, this old man, am also a little hot-tempered.” But it seems that my concession is not respectful to the amount I should be able to get, and it actually makes me feel that I, Murong Batian, am someone who is easily bullied.
Although these words were said with respect to Jiang Liu'er, how could he have such a method of 'inviting' her? Furthermore, he already knew that Murong Batian was a little against his words, and in addition to what he had thought before when Murong Batian had invited him, he still maintained a neutral attitude.
If he didn't guess wrong, it should be because Murong Batian found out that he was helping Wang Li and felt like he was in a state of 'liking new things and detesting old times', that he got him to 'invite' him here.
”Of course not, I just don't know why you invited me here today.”
Murong Batian heard Jiang Liu'er's reply and started laughing. This hearty laughter didn't sound like he was angry at all, but this old fox, he was obviously the best spokesperson. Otherwise, there wouldn't be so many people calling him an old fox behind his back.
”Haha, Jiang Liu'er, I think you are being a bit too arrogant, aren't you? I don't need to pretend to be stupid with you, aren't you clearer than anyone else?”
Jiang Liu'er laughed coldly in her heart, it seemed like her guess was right. Murong Batian was indeed angry because he had agreed to Wang Li's request, ”Mister Murong, let's see if we're mistaken. Why don't you let go of me first and we can slowly discuss this.”
”Misunderstanding?” When Murong Batian heard Jiang Liu'er explain the situation to him as a misunderstanding, he immediately raised his voice by 8 points. Jiang Liu'er's heart couldn't help but tighten, ”Are you joking? A misunderstanding? Do you think that just because I'm a kid that I can be coaxed around? What kind of joke is this, I, Murong Batian am not just simply spouting this name out loud! ”
Murong Batian stood up and kicked the chair away. The chair flew a few meters and fell to the side. He turned around and grabbed onto Jiang Liu'er's throat with his bear-like thick palm.
