she resembled the woman he loved, and seeing her brought back memories. He was simply extending his affection to her out of that fondness for the person she reminded him of.But this man who suddenly...Mr. Du looked at the woman in front of him and frowned, "Too ugly."
Qin Mumumu's heart pounded, two words alone sent chills down her spine.
Never has there been a moment when I've longed more for Jian Tong's appearance to capture the attention of others.
If Director Du finds Jian Tong ugly, wouldn't he be the unlucky one in the end
Qin Mumumu carefully stole a glance at the giant transparent container. The water inside was already over a meter high. She hurriedly said to Mr. Du, “Sir, don't just look at the appearance, Sister Jian Tong will definitely perform well.”
Although Jian Tong just arrived, she already understood from the conversation between Du Zong and Qin Mumumu that today's so-called performance was another Hongmen banquet.
Du looked at Jian Tong with a mixture of belief and disbelief: "Is she telling the truth"
Jian Tong's shoulders trembled slightly. Today, she had heard that phrase twice—was she truly saying it
She smiled, without looking at Mr. Du, but turned her head to look at Qin Mumu. That look made Qin Mumu feel an embarrassing sense of being seen through, her face flushed and she dared not meet Jian Tong's gaze directly.
"This is a good thing, one million dollars for the performance." Qin Mumumu stiffened her neck and said in a weak voice. Jian Tong turned his head back indifferently... Such a good thing, Qin Mumumu, why don't you want to
Her eyelashes fluttered down, then this time, she raised her head and slowly said to Mr. Du, "Two million."
"You're Jian Tong Are you haggling with me" Du Zong frowned. This woman was indeed just as Qin Mumu said, very money-grubbing.
"Two million, and I'm in."
"Jian Tong! What are you doing! One million is enough! Don't be greedy!" Qin Mumumu was worried that Jian Tong would ask for too much, offend the customer, and the customer would back out. In the end, she would suffer the consequences. After all, she wasn't protected by Dong Huang.
Jian Tong remained unmoved, simply staring fixedly at Mr. Du: "I want two million. I risked my life to take on this 'performance,' and I will give it my all. Mr. Du, two million, I won't budge."
She is sensitive and needy about money.
"Your life is worth no more than two million."
Mr. Du let out a light hum.
Jian Tong was still Jian Tong, slowly opening her mouth: "My life isn't worth two million. Mr. Du's joy when he saw the 'performance' was worth two million."
Mr. Du laughed this time... This woman is indeed interesting, much more interesting than that innocent-looking Qin Mumu.
"I heard you love money."
Jian Tong hung his head and did not retort or reply.
She loved money, it was common knowledge… A slight smile curled at the corner of her mouth, a smile most couldn't understand. Raising her head, she said, "Yes, I love money dearly, no... I love money more than life itself." So, that's why she agreed to perform with her very life on the line, isn't it
"So, all Mr. Du has to do is pay, and he can see the most dedicated actors."
“Good! Two million!” Director Du laughed with delight, his eyes gleaming. This woman from Jian Tong might be plain, but she was indeed interesting.
……
Ten minutes later
She was thrown into that rectangular transparent container, still wearing the tight-fitting clothes. She stubbornly refused to change out of them.
The water had already gone above her head, her clothes were soaked and heavy, pulling her down.
At first, she could still open her eyes and see those thrill-seeking CEOs standing in front of the transparent container, staring at her inside.
President Du looked refined, but at this moment, even with his gold-rimmed glasses on, he couldn't hide the excitement in his eyes. A look of enjoyment gradually appeared on his usually refined gentlemanly face.
Finally, unable to hold it in any longer, she exhaled her first breath and inhaled the first mouthful of water. It choked her into a coughing fit, but more water entered her lungs. She opened her hands wide and struggled desperately, waving them around.
She could still see, from the corner of her eye, the faces surrounding the transparent container becoming more and more excited, more and more agitated... Suddenly, she had an idea: why not just die like this If she died, there would be no five million debt hanging over her head. She wouldn't have to suffer the torment of her soul anymore. Death... Wouldn't that be giving back her life to A-Lu
...Does that count as ...paid off
No, no that's not right.
Erhai, Alu, that gentle girl, she saved herself with her life. It wasn't to make herself repay in this way.
The Erhai dream we talked about hasn't come true yet, can't... give up!
Then, with her last bit of strength, she swung her fists, pounding the container walls, and opened her mouth: "Save me... gurgle gurgle gurgle..."
All the "save me's" had become a string of bubbles, gurgling and gurgling from her mouth, save...glug...glug... Her vision was blurry, she suddenly went insane, pounding the container wall... She wouldn't die just like this!
Didn't they say someone would save her in three minutes
Pain, suffocation, choking water, endless repetition... Three minutes, is it over
Why... said three minutes
Perhaps she was truly dying
Do people experience hallucinations before they die
Or could it be that, until her death, that person's figure never left her heart
A helpless smile... Why! At the last moment of death, the last hallucination that appears is him!
Shen Xiujin!
In that instant as she closed her eyes, she lunged toward the phantom figure, her lips moving silently, before closing her eyes once more.
Shen Xiujin hadn't expected to see such a shocking and terrifying scene upon his return!
His face grew solemn, he picked up a nearby bottle of wine and smashed it towards the transparent container. The container remained unscathed. He turned his head to the bodyguards and shouted, "Save him!"
Chen Yi quickly checked the container: "Boss, the lid on top of the container is locked. For some reason, the key won't open the lock at all."
Shen Xiujian's eyes, fixed on the woman drowning in the container, "Smash!"
At his command, his bodyguards moved without hesitation, all attacking the container one after another. However, the container showed no sign of damage whatsoever. Shen Xiujin turned his head and said, "Speak! How do you open this container!"
Mr. Du's face was already a little pale, "This container was sent by Young Master Xiao, I don't know about it, Mr. Shen, I really didn't know this was your place, otherwise I wouldn't dare to play this kind of game in your place."
I didn't expect such an accident to happen. Just three minutes in, I was about to have someone pull her up, but unexpectedly, this happened.
Thus, General Shen, the venue is yours, and this person is also yours. If something happens to this person, I'll pay the money, I'll admit defeat, I'll pay ten million to this woman's family, and then another fifty million to compensate you, General Shen."
Shen Xiuqin sneered, her eyes already bloodshot, filled with rage to the extreme. She ignored Du's surrender and ran to the restroom, grabbed a mop, and smashed it into the container repeatedly. The material of this container was special, not easily broken. Shen Xiuqin gripped the mop tightly, smashing it again and again, her strength so great that blood seeped from her hand clutching the mop.
"Boss, you rest, this kind of thing, let me and Shen Er do it." Shen Yi looked at Shen Xiuqin's crazy appearance, his heart trembled suddenly, and he hurriedly tried to stop Shen Xiuqin, but was pushed away by Shen Xiuqin heavily:
"Shen Yi, smash it with me! Shen Er, call Bai Yu to come over immediately. Shen San, go get everyone here, and smash it for me!"
Mr. Du trembled with fear: “General Shen, why bother It’s just one woman…”
"Swoosh!" Shen Xiujin suddenly turned his head, eyes bloodshot: "Du Liqun, you dare to play with my people like this! I think you're looking for death! You better pray she's fine, otherwise, you'll stay in S city forever!"ich had been waiting outside for a while, took the two men away."Little Tong..." Bai Yuxing hesitated for a long time, but as the car drove onto the road leading to Shen's manor, he brought up the per...
