Qiao Yiyi replied, "No."
The thug immediately reached out and slapped her across the face.
Half of Qiao Yiyi's face went numb from the slap.
There was a metallic taste in her mouth. She opened her mouth and spat out a mouthful of blood.
The mask on her face was slightly crooked from the blow.
But no one in this family was interested in the face behind the mask. They only stared at her.
Qiao Yiyi knelt on the ground, one side of her face swollen. She was in a sorry state.
Both her hands were trembling and she was in so much pain that she couldn't summon any strength. But she held on to the ginseng with a death grip, refusing to let go.
At this point, the stubbornness in her bones showed itself.
She had come this far for this ginseng. She would rather die than hand it over.
She narrowed her eyes and stared at the ground.
The thug stepped forward again and asked, "Are you giving it to me or not?"
Qiao Yiyi didn't speak, but she looked at the thug with a determined gaze.
The thug narrowed his eyes at once and started punching and kicking at her.
Qiao Yiyi raised her arms to cover her head. She hid the ginseng at her waist under her body and didn't make a sound.
She felt as though all the bones in her body were about to break.
But she thought of the man lying on the bed, his pale face and lips. She thought of how the doctor had said that he had lost too much of his body and needed to recover.
She was even more determined now.
As long as these people didn't beat her to death, she would not hand the ginseng over.
The punches and kicks landed on her body, making her feel as though her internal organs were being dislocated. Just as she thought that she was really going to die, she suddenly heard a clear, noble voice say, "That's enough."
The thug retracted his fists and said respectfully, "Sir."
Qiao Yiyi was stunned. She had no strength left in her.
She slowly raised her head and saw the man standing not far from her.
Because his back was to the moonlight, she couldn't see his face clearly. But she could feel the oppressive aura emanating from him.
Before she could speak, the man said unhurriedly, "Leave the ginseng and let her go."
The butler was stunned, but he didn't dare to question this man's orders. He lowered his head and said, "Yes, Sir."
Then he took a step forward and knelt down in front of Qiao Yiyi. He lowered his head and said, "Consider yourself lucky that you didn't disturb our mistress today. Sir is letting you go because of this. Hurry up and put down the ginseng and leave! We know that you have a grudge against Bai Anan. Otherwise, you would be dead if we sent you to the police station! "
The butler's words were filled with persuasion. He could tell that Traceless was a ruthless character.
Indeed, as soon as he said this, Traceless held the ginseng tightly in her hands and lowered her head. "I won't let go unless you kill me."
She didn't even have the strength to speak, but she still managed to say it word by word.
Hearing this, the butler sighed.
The surrounding people were silent for a moment.
Actually, everyone was a little impressed to have encountered such a tough bone.
The butler turned around and looked at the master of the house.
Mr. Xu stared at her for a long time. After a while, he said faintly, "Let her go."
The butler was taken aback.
The surrounding people were also stunned.
