The kidnapper twisted open a bottle of mineral water and held it to Shi Youxuan's lips. She gripped his hand and drank down more than half the bottle in one breath, finally catching her breath.
She let out a long, heavy sigh and said to the kidnapper, "Thank you, brother. You truly are a good person! Good brother, could you put on your mask? And maybe wear some sunglasses too, then talk to me from a bit further away. I have a money-making opportunity to tell you about, but I'm not sure if you'd be interested?"
Throughout her speech, Shi Youxuan kept her eyes tightly shut.
The kidnapper was a bit stunned!
This was the first time in his life that he had been called a "good person."
Although he knew he wasn't one, it still felt quite comforting.
"This little girl really has a sweet mouth," he thought, feeling it would be a shame to sell her off to some remote mountain area.
Still, he did as she asked and put on both the mask and hat before saying, "You can open your eyes now."
