Jasmine's Choice

Jasmine sat opposite Ning and Tim, glaring at the both of them while waiting to make her decision. It was a weird question that she had been proposed suddenly and she did not know how to answer it.

"What will you do if I refuse it, by the way?" she asked. "Will you toss me to the authorities?"

Tim looked toward Ning, wondering the same. 

Ning thought for a bit and asked, "Have you killed anyone before?"

Jasmine frowned suddenly. "What are you talking about? Are you going to kill me?" she asked.

"Huh? No, that was just my question," Ning said. "Have you killed someone before?" 

"No," Jasmine answered.

"And you steal from the rich only?" Ning asked.

"Why would I steal from the poor? They have nothing to steal at all," she answered.

"And how much would you say you have stolen by now?" Ning asked. "I'm curious if you are addicted to stealing even though you have enough money by now."
