Otherworldly Affairs Office

Watching Han Lihu, who looked like a rabid dog, Su Xiang staggered to the circular table with a pale face. Just when Han Lihu grinned, thinking the other was about to yield, Su Xiang picked up the hookah bottle on the table, supported his body with one hand, and calmly jumped onto the table edge. His expression instantly returned to serenity and indifferently said, "I thought you'd come up with some demands with your advantage, so I specially cooperated with your performance. Is this it? Haha." After speaking, he shook his head regretfully, giving Han Lihu a pitiful glance and resumed smoking, no longer looking at him.

Han Lihu, taken aback by this sudden change, looked bewilderedly at the woman in his arms, then at Su Xiang, and roared, "What T M trick are you playing? If you don't do what I say, I'll kill her now!"

Su Xiang continued to smoke the hookah without lifting his head and said, "Go ahead." After saying that, he ignored Han Lihu and waved to his subordinate on the other side; Shan He immediately got up and approached.

Su Xiang whispered a few words in Shan He's ear, who nodded repeatedly, looked at Han Lihu, and revealed a cruel smile before signaling to Zhi Rou, and the two walked out of the meeting room together.

"I know you T M want to trick me? Make me think she's not important, then relax vigilance so you can save her, right? And what did you make them do? Get them back, or I'll kill her immediately!" Seeing the other party indifferent to his threats, Han Lihu tightened the grip on the hostage's neck and pointed at Shan He and Zhi Rou who were leaving the room, yelling loudly.

Su Xiang impatiently slammed the hookah bottle onto the table, looked at Han Lihu with annoyance, and said, "Kill!"

Looking at Han Lihu who was at a loss, Su Xiang simply sat cross-legged on the meeting table, laughing as he said, "Can't decide on killing someone? Old Han, this isn't like you, do you want me to help you?" After saying this, he raised his hands and clapped loudly.

Soon after the applause disappeared, a rush of footsteps was heard from the hallway, and the door opened again. Under the guidance of Shan He and Zhi Rou, a group of people poured in, each pair dragging a bound person. Wang Yiyi glanced quickly and saw a total of five people brought in.

Zhao Liben and Mr. Mu quickly stood up to make room for the newcomers, enthusiastically watching as five trussed-up people were pressed onto the circular table.

Upon seeing the restrained people, Han Lihu's eyes instantly turned crimson with rage, and he roared, "Su Xiang, how the T M did you do this!"

Su Xiang ignored Han Lihu and summoned his subordinate. Shan He grinned and grabbed one of the mature-looking middle-aged women, provocatively stared at Han Lihu and imitated his earlier action by licking her cheek with his tongue.

"I ask you, where the TM did you find my family?" Han Lihu, trembling with anger, lost his previous arrogance, lowered his voice and angrily shouted.

Han Lihu now had a blank mind. He had considered kidnapping Su Xiang's direct relatives, but the opponent was as cunning as a fox, and despite his efforts, he could not find them. He had to settle for kidnapping Su Xiang's woman. Since he did this, he also guarded against Su Xiang doing the same to him, thus he found a secret hiding place for his family, known only to himself. He also cut off all communication means with the outside world for his family during this time. How did this bastard Su Xiang manage to find them!

"Are you a child? Does every question you ask need an answer? What now, say it." Su Xiang stretched his hand to pick his ear calmly and asked.

"We exchange hostages, and then you and I duel one-on-one? If I lose, Han Lihu's life is yours! You free my family, and I'll buy their lives with money!"

Su Xiang widened his eyes in disbelief, looking at Han Lihu and asked, "Why should I exchange? And it's one-for-five, or are you saying one-for-one, and the remaining four you don't want?"

Seeing Han Lihu glaring angrily at him, yet helpless, Su Xiang sighed and continued, "Can't make a choice? Let me help you."

Then he pointed at the five bound people and asked Shan He, "Dad, Mom, son, daughter, wife—Shan He, who do you think is the least important?"

Shan He lifted the woman in his hands and drew his face closer to hers, smiling brightly, and replied, "The wife, since there's no blood relation."

Su Xiang agreed, nodding in understanding and said, "Indeed, let's go with her then!"

Han Lihu's wife struggled with her bound body, tears flowing as she whimpered. At this moment, Shan He lifted her body, then gently touched the back of her head, causing it to fall heavily to the ground like it was filled with lead. With a crisp sound, her head shattered into dozens of fragments as if plasterboard breaking on the ground.

"Su Xiang, I C N M!" Han Lihu cursed, then removed the gag from the woman's mouth and shouted, "Quick, beg your man to save you back!"

"I've said so many times he doesn't love me! Doesn't love me!" The woman, regaining the ability to speak, cried out.

"I T M told you to beg him!" Han Lihu crazily pulled the woman's hair, a red light flashed in his hand, fiercely stabbing at the woman's thigh.

The woman's body jerked, and once she recovered, she howled in pain and began crying out, "Su Xiang, Su Xiang, I beg you! For the sake of old times, save me back, save me! You have four more people to trade for me, I beg you! I'm begging you! Save me!"

Su Xiang first looked at the woman with pity, sighed, then turned his head immediately into a smile, calmly as if nothing happened, and asked Shan He, "Then between Dad, Mom, son, and daughter, which one is less important?"

"Su Xiang, you're not human! Not even a real man! How did I blindly end up knowing you!" The woman seeing Su Xiang's heartless demeanor, cursed him heartbreakingly.

"Noisy!" Su Xiang knocked the hookah bottle and said, pointing lightly at the woman without turning his head.

The woman instantly felt she lost control over her voice and could no longer make any sound.

"I think it's the parents! Old Han doesn't look like a filial person no matter how you see it." Zhao Liben, watching the commotion, crossed his arms and inserted with a laugh.

Han Lihu looked at Zhao Liben, gritted his teeth as he squeezed out three words from between his teeth: "Zhao, Li, Ben!"

Su Xiang agreed with this, then asked, "Indeed, which one of the parents can be discarded?"

"Typically, sons are closer to moms." Completely ignoring Han Lihu's murderous look, Zhao Liben touched his chin and seriously answered.

Without an order, Zhi Rou stepped forward, twisted the old man's neck with a crunch, and his body slumped down.

"Su Xiang! I, Han Lihu, admit defeat, I surrender! Don't extend trouble to family, come at me! At me!" Watching his father's and wife's plight, Han Lihu's spirit finally couldn't hold on and begged.

Su Xiang looked shocked at Han Lihu and surprisingly said, "Don't extend trouble to family? Walking this path and you tell me don't extend trouble to family? How naive are you!"

Han Lihu was stumped by Su Xiang's words, his breath nearly suffocating, unable to speak for a while.
