Chapter 3

I was stunned.

Why isn’t this guy following the script?!

Aren’t they supposed to negotiate first?!

Why jump straight to blades and guns? If you accidentally cut your own precious little darling, how are you going to get the money?!

The skinny guy wore a villainous grin as he sauntered toward me with a small knife.

Just as he gripped my chin,

Lu Ting roared, “Stop! What do you think you’re doing! Let Yu Qiaoqiao go!”

Me: *Sobs*, what a good man, I love you for all eternity.

The boss chuckled softly. He toyed with the dagger in his hand, talking about murder as casually as if he were chopping vegetables:

“Oh, is that so?

“Two people. You choose one.”

Lu Ting looked at me and his white moonlight, falling silent.

My heart sank.

Lu Ting gave me an apologetic look, as if to say, “I’m sorry”:

“I choose Bai Xuan’er (the white moonlight).”

Me: F*ck your mother! You stinking man! You dog, go to hell!!

The skinny guy slashed the ropes, and Bai Xuan’er stumbled toward Lu Ting, sobbing all the way.

And Lu Ting, with a look of heartache, pulled her into his arms.
