"Since you've kept your promise, I'll keep mine, too. Don't worry; your parents are safe and sound!"
She was stunned for a long time before she finally took a step back. "Alright … If that's the case, then let me hear my parents' voices. I want to make sure that they're safe and sound!"
The man on the other end sneered. "Impossible! Don't make such unreasonable demands! "
"How is this an unreasonable request?! As a condition, I must at least confirm my parents' safety before I continue to fulfill our agreement! "
Mu Xi's refusal to admit that there was a deal between them was probably due to her guilt!
The man was clearly unwilling to back down as he coldly said, "Dream on!"
"You didn't do anything to them, did you?!" she asked suspiciously.
"No! How can that be?! They're our bargaining chips; I can't possibly do anything to them! "
"I don't believe you!"
"It's your business if you don't believe me!"
"Then, let me hear their voices!" she persisted. Suddenly, she threatened, "If not, I'll take back that invitation!"
There was a sudden heart-palpitating silence on the other end. It seemed that her threat had finally taken effect. Then, following a series of soft sounds, a man's trembling voice could be heard. "Mu Xi … Mu Xi …"
"Dad!"
When she heard the familiar and weathered voice, the worry and uneasiness she had been feeling these past few days caused her legs to give way. She knelt on the ground with tears rolling down her cheeks. "Dad! Are you okay?! Is mom okay? "
The man's voice on the other end was tired and restrained. His voice was hoarse and trembling. She did not know what kind of shock and torture he and her mother had been through these past few days. "I'm fine; you … you don't have to worry."
How could she believe him when he told her not to worry?!
She asked worriedly, "Did they hit you or mistreat you?"
"No … They didn't mistreat me …"
The man's voice trembled as he said this.
She felt even more worried when she heard this. She knew that her father did not dare to tell the truth in front of those people, so he was avoiding the main point and dwelling on the trivial. She carefully asked, "Did they give you food?"
There was another period of silence on the other end. Then, there was a series of soft sounds, followed by a man's voice, "Did you hear that?! They are all fine. You can rest assured now! "
Mu Xi gritted her teeth and was about to speak when the man said coldly, "If Yun Shishi doesn't appear, you can forget about seeing them again!"
"I …"
"You know that too, right?! It doesn't matter if you call the police or ask for help. If you dare, you can try! Is the police faster, or … my bullets faster! If you dare to leak a single word, don't blame me for being merciless! "
With that, the man hung up the phone.
Mu Xi covered her mouth in fear and bit her fingers as she sank into an endless state of panic.
…
In the evening, Yun Shishi was in front of the wardrobe looking for jewelry. Yoo Yoo leaned against the door and mumbled, "Mommy, what are you looking for?"
"Yes! There's a charity banquet the day after tomorrow. Prepare to attend it. "
"Charity banquet?" Why hadn't he heard of it?
The charity banquet, as the name suggested, was a banquet with the theme of charity.
