Chapter 85 - A Perfect Master (1/2)
”Girl, you can leave. Since you bumped into me, I'm keeping your pet as compensation,” said the bearded man who was supposedly their boss.
Although she heard it, she did not pay attention to him.
'Mia…Mia…are you fine…?' She tried to communicate with the fox in her mind without moving an inch from her spot.
Not what is going on will make you helpless. And that's how she felt right now. She knew the fox was in pain, but she did not its cause nor could she think of any way to help her.
'I don't need your sympathy. I'll kill you the moment I recover. So, run away and save your life. I can..ugh…manage myself.' As arrogant as her voice was, Mia sounded weak.
Yu Mei furrowed her brows as she looked at the men surrounding the fox. While she was thinking of a way to get out of this situation. The tip of a sharp knife was pressed on the back of her neck.
”Since you are reluctant to leave, we can take you with us….” While the man had his knife on her neck, their boss walked towards her and removed the scarf and shades that were covering her face, ”You are fat but this face is not ugly. Selling you off will not be a bad idea. But since you can afford a fox, you must be from a rich family. That will also get us some money.”
Her lips twitched. These hooligans are very money-minded.
”What do you say, girl?” The man looked at her with a greedy expression on his face.
She cleared her throat, ”You have good prospects in business.” She said, without moving too much as the tip of the knife was still pressed on the back of her neck.
”What?” The goons were stunned.
”You see…you found multiple ways of making money within five minutes. You can have a bright future in the business field,” She blinked, ”How about you let me go first? I'll give you a position in the financial department of my company. You will earn a lot.”
''Who wants to earn by working? That's not our style. And do you think we would believe that a young girl like you owns a company?” The man snorted before looking at the fox, ”Grab the animal,” He ordered his people.
'Swish'
With one swift movement, Yu Mei twisted the upper half of her body and grabbed the knife that was pointed at the back of her neck.
Before their boss could turn his head around to glance at her, he was caught off guard when she grabbed his shoulder pressed the knife on his neck with force.
''AHHHH!''
Since you didn't take my offer, don't blame me for being ruthless then,'' She coldly said pressing the knife harder.
”W-What do you want?” The boss shivered as blood oozed out of his neck.
Yu Mei looked at the guys working under him, ”Go….Stand at the end of the road.''
”Go!” The man ordered his boys when she pressed the knife on his delicate skin. They immediately ran away towards the end of the road, ”W-What now?”
She wordlessly dragged him towards where Mia was lying on the road. ”Squat,” she coldly said and the man squatted down along with her.
While her right hand was holding the knife on his neck, she extended another hand towards the little fox, 'Hop on…' She said to it in her mind.
”Don't move,” She pressed the knife on his neck when he tried to struggle.
