“Have you gone nuts?”
“We’ll bring them back if you can’t finish them,” he retorted.
The Prison Chief smiled when he heard that. He hadn’t expected the lady to be fond of soy milk.
“We have plenty. Young Master Mo, these can be all yours if you like.”
The woman’s mouth twitched. “We can get this somewhere else. This place is far from the city center, so it would be troublesome for them to make a trip out here.”
That did not bother him. If she liked the taste of the soy milk here, he would get the drinks from this place. She might not like the taste if they tried another place. He would get the drinks from this place no matter the cost!
“I want these!” His instruction was short and sweet.
Beneath her wry look, Ye Erruo was feeling blissful. Just like he had promised her before, he would get her whatever her eyes lingered on. He would spoil her this way.
As he took a sip from the glass of soy milk in her hand, he whispered into her ear, “This drink may taste good, but it’s not as good as you.”
He never failed to compliment her whenever he could.
“Pack these up.”
“Understood, Chief.” Left speechless by the order, Wang Yiyang accepted the drinks as instructed.
“Pay up now!”
“Oh, no, no. There’s no need to.” Who would dare accept money from the chieftain?
Mo Jiangye’s eyes glistened. “Keep the money!”
Did he dare refuse any further?
“Yes, yes, yes, I will.” There was not much the prison chief could do except follow this instruction.
“Where’s the man?”
“He’s inside. Do you want to see him now?”
The man did not respond except to turn his head to the woman sitting beside him and say, “Stay here and don’t go anywhere. It’s cold outside.”
“Are you going to see Lin Jingxuan?”
“Yes.”
“I’ll go with you.”
“It’s cold and wet outside. It wouldn’t be good for you.”
The temperature had been low in the first place and it had dipped even further that day.
“Stay here and don’t go anywhere.” He pressed her down against her seat and warned her sternly.
“When are you coming back?” She compromised finally.
“Soon.”
“Then I’ll wait for you.”
“How do you want him dead? Frozen to death, starved to death, or tortured to death?”
She told him while holding his hand, “I think beating him to death would be a better option.”
He sniggered. Beating him to death? Dying this way would be too easy for him!
He marched out of the door while the rest followed suit, leaving the woman alone inside the room.
She stood by the door with the heat pad in her arms, staring into the direction the man had disappeared to. Honestly, she wasn’t feeling cold to begin with, especially not when she was holding a heat pad.
Everyone waited outside as the prison door opened.
Mo Jiangye sauntered inside in his black leather boots. On the bed was Lin Jingxuan, who was covered by a thick pile of blankets.
The man on the bed knew who was coming the instant he heard movement outside his cell door.
“So it’s you.”
The standing man looked at him expressionlessly. He loomed ominously beside the bed and tore away the injection pack hanging next to it.
“Mo Jiangye, do you think you can lock me up forever?” quipped the man on the bed, looking wan.
“You’re a b*stard who had the cheek to snatch away what was mine. Do you think I’d be scared of you without the Lins’ power?”
Mo Jiangye continued to observe the medicated pack he was holding in his hands, oblivious to his archenemy’s words.
“Let me go.” Lin Jingxuan changed his tone and pleaded this time.
The standing man turned around abruptly with an eerie smile on his face. “You wanna go out?”
“Ah!” The prisoner let out a painful cry all of a sudden.
