Chapter 172: Calculation
Every word the man said seemed to be on the death line, he had never touched the person in front of him at all, so he naturally didn't know his temperament, but Su Jiarui knew very well that Chen Cheng's real anger would not be shown on his face, but in his tone.
The more he speaks lightly, it only proves that the more angry he becomes, the more cruel the humiliating methods will become.
Chen Cheng's ease is not because he really doesn't care, but because he has already begun to think about how to clean up the person who makes him unhappy.
And apparently this, the man behind her is not clear, and even adds fuel to the fire.
"You want money? That's easy to do. ”
Chen Cheng hooked his lips and smiled, and simply put his hands in his trouser pockets, showing a state of wanton and stubbornness, as if he was not in the barren mountains and mountains now, but at the negotiation table, holding the chips in his hand, and negotiating with the other party.
"How much?"
The man didn't expect Chen Cheng to speak so well, and the tense expression on his face relaxed for a while.
"Hey, Chen Shao, if you want me to say, you are still easy to talk, I like to communicate with happy people like you, for the sake of your cooperation, I am also easy to talk, I don't want much, 50 million, how about it? 50 million to buy this little cute person's life, it's cheap. ”
Wu Ming looked at the farce in front of him, and his face didn't look very good, if it weren't for Chen Cheng's deliberate eyes just now to give him a hint, plus now rescuing Su Jiarui is the most important thing, he had to be patient, otherwise he wouldn't have been able to listen to the words of the man in front of him at all.
"Fifty million? For me, it's cheap, but it's not worth it. ”
Chen Cheng raised his eyelids lightly, and for the first time, his gaze officially fell on Su Jiarui's body.
What kind of gaze was that, Su Jiarui felt as if he was the prey of a cheetah, and he couldn't move.
"Hey, what do you mean? Fool me! ”
The man was angry, but it was she who was held hostage and couldn't move, coupled with Chen Cheng's words just now, Su Jiarui felt that he was terribly cold now.
"Hehe, I have a very serious cleanliness habit, what have been touched by others, what do you want me to want?"
Su Jiarui didn't know whether Chen Cheng was sincere or false when he said this, but she had to admit that the moment she heard this, she still felt suffocated in her breath, as if even her body, which was originally in pain, was unconscious in an instant.
"Hey, Chen Cheng, you're going too far."
Chen Cheng raised his eyebrows slightly, smiled, and said slowly: "So let's discuss, I can give you a sum of money, and then let you go, I have always been a man of words, as long as you leave here, I won't trouble you again, how about it?" I said I wouldn't chase you if I didn't chase you. ”
Chen Cheng looked up at the man in front of him, and his words changed.
"However, if you are not satisfied, you can simply kill her, can you leave here alive today without my permission?"
The man was obviously stunned, Chen Cheng's expression didn't look like he was telling a lie in order to deliberately threaten him, so he chased him all the way, isn't this woman even worth 50 million in his heart?
He didn't even believe it when he said it, but when it came to it, he didn't dare to try rashly.
He had heard of Chen Cheng's methods to some extent, and his heart was indeed shaken at the moment.
At this time, not opening his mouth at this time means acquiescence to a certain extent, Chen Cheng saw that the man's eyes were shaken, and he turned his head and ordered the black-clothed bodyguard on the side.
"Go, go get a check from my car."
The man in black quietly glanced at the man on the side and nodded at Chen Cheng.
"Yes, Chen Shao."
In the dim light, Chen Cheng stretched out his slender hands and took out a cigarette from his jacket pocket, and before he could make a move, the well-trained man in black behind him had already stepped forward and lit a cigarette for him.
In the mist of smoke, Chen Cheng's eyes barely stayed on her, as if she was alive or dead today, and had nothing to do with him.
"I might as well tell you, I just bought her because she offended me, I want to clean up the people who offended me myself, I'm afraid you will be wrong before, do you think I will really care about her life or death?"
Chen Cheng's words were even sharper than the sharp blade against her neck, and Su Jiarui bit his lower lip, feeling that since this was the case, it was better to die in front of Chen Cheng in the first place.
At the very least, she wouldn't hear such unpleasant and harsh words again.
The atmosphere was at a stalemate for a while, and several people confronted each other, but no one spoke again.
In such a highly tense environment, Su Jiarui felt that her body was a little untenable, from Chen Cheng's escape to the present, she felt that she had experienced too many unbelievable changes, even if she knew that now was not the time to relax, but the spirit of holding up was really on the verge of collapse.
"Jiarui, squat!"
In the flash of light, she heard Wu Ming's words, and her body reacted subconsciously.
Immediately after, there was a muffled snort of pain from behind him.
Su Jiarui's body fell down softly, and was caught by Wu Ming steadily.
Behind him, the man in black who had been arranged by Chen Cheng to pick up the check was standing quietly behind them, still holding a blunt instrument in his hand.
But even so, while the man was struggling, the sharp weapon in his hand once again grazed the skin, cutting her shoulder and neck, leaving a shocking blood mark.
"Chen Shao, didn't you say you were going to let me go before? You lied to me! ”
Chen Cheng sneered softly, threw the burning cigarette in his hand on the ground, and stepped on it with his foot again.
"I lied to you? I remember saying that as long as you can get out of here, I won't chase you, do I? Provided, you can get out of here. ”
The man knew that he was calculated by Chen Cheng, and now he was missing the bargaining chips to escape, and the ending waiting for him couldn't be clearer, and he panicked for a while.
"Jiarui, are you okay?"
Wu Ming said as he raised his hand and gently wiped the blood gushing out of Su Jiarui's neck with a tissue, fortunately, it was all skin trauma, and it looked like a lot of blood was flowing out, but in fact, it didn't hurt the arteries at all.
But even then, it looks shocking enough.
"Wu Ming, thank you, but let me go, I can't implicate you anymore."
Su Jiarui's eyes were already faintly dark at this time, she knew that Wu Ming didn't bring a helper this time, and if she had a dispute with Chen Cheng, she would inevitably fall behind.
After all, if people really fight, it is inevitable that their subordinates may lose their heads, and further down, Su Jiarui doesn't dare to think about it at all.
She couldn't get him involved.
Anyway, it fell into Chen Cheng's hands, but in the end, he was just taken to the magic night like a commodity.
After all, in his eyes, he is already something that has been touched by others, and there is no value to stay at all.
She knew very well what her fate would be in the hands of Chen Cheng, so she naturally couldn't hurt the people who really cared about her because of the bad fate between herself and Chen Cheng.
Her forehead was hot, fine beads of sweat covered her forehead, she vaguely understood that she was probably having a fever, because she was chilling all over, but at this time she had no time to care about her physical condition, she originally wanted to say something more, but in the end exhaustion had already occupied all consciousness, she opened her mouth, and before she could say anything, she tilted her head and completely lost consciousness.
Before this, Su Jiarui didn't have any good feelings about Cloud City, a city full of dogs and horses, here, she was isolated, even if she was in her own home, she always had a sense of loneliness under the fence.
Here, she met her first love, but spent half her life trying to escape from such a ridiculous love.
And just after she fell unconscious, this seemingly peaceful undercurrent surging under the city still showed no signs of stopping.
The sky of Cloud City is like a huge dome, and under the dome, everyone is an ant of fate.
……
In a dark alley.
The man's breathing gradually became heavier, and he finally relaxed, and his muscles that had not been vigorously exercised for a long time were throbbing faintly.
The late autumn wind was cold and biting, and the man suddenly remembered that he seemed to be hiding in this dim alley with Su Jiarui last time.
Although he was injured at that time, he didn't know why, but he didn't panic at all.
And now, a sense of crisis rose in his heart for no reason.
Sure enough, after staying in Gentle Township for a long time, even his reaction became a little sluggish.
He crouched down and rubbed all the blinding blood on the tip of the knife on the man who was lying on the ground, no longer moving.
The tip of the knife bloomed again, reflecting his superior, unforgettable half-blood face.
Having just experienced a fierce battle, he single-handedly defeated the five people who had been lurking in the shadows.
If this kind of thing were put together, he would definitely not hesitate to take a knife and completely kill this group of people, but now, he is just the ability to point to the end, so that they do not have the ability to act in a short period of time.
But even so, he still had no room to breathe.
"K, you know, you can't escape."
A man appeared at the entrance to the alley, his face obscured by a wide trench coat, but even by the corner of the peeking one, one could see his eyes that had no temperature and were like beasts.
"Hehe, did they even ask you to move? How much benefit has it given you? Or is it the same old routine as threatening me? ”
Chris leaned against the wall, trying to adjust his breathing, the people he had just fought were all well-trained masters, although he could easily knock them down in the past, but now it was different, he had indulged in peaceful days for too long, and the battle just now was almost purely based on his body's instincts.
So now, his trembling hands are almost unable to hold the knife.
