Outside the room, several black-clad bodyguards guarded the door so tightly, not even a fly could get in.
Inside the room, Luo Sisi and her three companions were tied to chairs, blindfolded with black cloth.
Footsteps could be heard from outside the door.
They began to struggle.
They had been locked up for over ten hours, their throats hoarse from shouting.
They had tried all sorts of pleading and threats, but the people outside were like wood, not saying a word.
"Let me out!" Luo Sisi cried out, "I'll give you money! Please, just let me go!"
At that moment, the door creaked open.
Ge Jun, blindfolded, raised his head, "Who's there? Who is it?!"
No one spoke.
Xi Jiu walked into the room, his hand lifting slightly.
A bodyguard stepped forward and removed the cloth from the eyes of Luo Sisi and the others.
Their eyes squinted against the bright lights.
"Luo Sisi, Ge Jun," a cold male voice echoed in the room.
Luo Sisi and Ge Jun looked up.
