Exchanging Hostage

Tang Mei screamed in fear immediately.

Mei Shu reacted swiftly, pushing the person aside forcefully. The tip of the knife swiftly passed between them, and the iron door was kicked open from the inside.

Tang Mei, her face pale with fear, stood frozen, forgetting even her instinct to evade.

Mei Shu, worried about her getting hurt, pulled her behind him. The tip of the knife pressed tightly against her neck, just an inch away.

"Miss Mei, nice to meet you. I've heard a lot about you," the curly-haired man who opened the door said. Behind him were three or four burly men holding long knives.

Mei Shu said, "Heard a lot about me? Seems like you came for me. So, what are your intentions?"

The curly-haired man burst into laughter. "Miss Mei indeed lives up to her reputation. You're quite beautiful. We brothers have never seen a girl as pretty as you! Now, besides this money, you and the woman with you need to stay here before that guy can be released."
