Chapter 49: The Bizarre Wooden Box

Zhao Shan, whose heart had just relaxed, suddenly tensed up again, involuntarily gripping the wooden box in his pocket, and said with a forced laugh, "There's nothing of importance."

Chu Yi's gaze remained on his phone, not even glancing at him, but he spoke indifferently, "Either you take it out yourself, or I will. Which do you choose?"

The words were spoken lightly, but the threat was unmistakable.

Zhao Shan knew he had to make a decision, or he feared he might not make it out of this green belt today…

"What is this thing?"
