  “Hmm!”


  Fang Yuanyuan had wanted to struggle when she saw Huang He.

  There was still a distance between them. When their gazes met, she stopped struggling.

  Everything was as though silent for a moment.

  Huang He did not say anything as he narrowed his eyes slowly.

  He was able to keep calm, but Brother Steel was unsettled by the sight before him.

  After pausing for a while, he glared at Liang before speaking to the eye-patch guy in an ingratiating manner. “Second Brother…… you’re here to save me? It’s boss who let you come to save me?”


  The eye-patch guy had an obnoxious expression. “You still had the cheek to say this?”


  Brother Steel immediately understood.

  He glanced maliciously at Liang, who was beside the eye-patch guy. Gritting his teeth, he swallowed the hatred inside his chest and continued to pretend to be obsequious.

  “Second Brother, I didn’t do my job well this time and the police managed to seek us out. It’s my fault. When I meet boss, I’m going to kneel down before him and admit my mistakes…… I’ll accept whatever punishment he mete out to me……”


  “You still want to meet boss?” The eye-patch guy took a step forward and pointed the gun at him. “How much guts do you have to play us like monkeys?”


  Brother Steel quivered and was shocked. “Second Brother…… where did this come from?”


  Eye-patch guy: “You’ve colluded with the police long ago, right? The goods and the lives of our brothers are your tribute to the police?”


  “I…… I didn’t! Second Brother, you’ve wronged me!” Brother Steel felt that he was being accused and pointed at Liang furiously. “Second Brother, Liang is the b*stard who betrayed us. Don’t believe his nonsense—he’s the one who lured the police to Vulture’s Mouth. Everything turned out this way because of him—”


  “Bullsh*t!”


  The eye-patch guy yelled at him and pointed his gun at Huang He.

  “You claimed that you didn’t collude with the police? Then tell me, who is this person? How are you going to explain this?”


  Brother Steel was dumbfounded.

  He turned to took at Huang He, his heart nearly jumping out of his mouth.

  Was there really a problem with Huang He?

  He was a little nervous.

  Nevertheless, Huang He’s expression was certainly calmer than him.

  Brother Steel took a breath and calmed down a little.

  “Second Brother, please listen to me. This is Brother Crown Prince. He’s the buyer whom Brother Six introduced to us while he was alive…… He’s here to do a business deal with us—Well, it’s right to say that he’s the police……”


  As he said this, the moment he noticed that the eye-patch guy’s expression turned darker, he quickly spat two times and hit his own mouth.

  “No, no, no, I mean, he did use to be a detective. Many people knew about him, being a detective in Jin City, Hongjiang District. There’s nothing to hide…… But Brother Crown Prince is no longer a detective for a long time and he’s also in the underworld just like us. Brother Six used to regard him highly when he’s alive.”


  As if worried that the eye-patch guy would not believe him, he added: “He’s also Sister Danyue’s man!”


  The eye-patch guy did not show any reaction to his words.

  Fang Yuanyuan, who had lost her freedom and was being tied up, suddenly froze on the spot.

  She lifted her head slowly to look at Huang He……

  Sister Danyue’s man.

  This sentence made Fang Yuanyuan’s heart twitch in pain.

  Huang He did not look at her. There was no expression on him as he stood unmoving.

  “Hurhur!” The eye-patch guy made a gesture as though he was weighing the gun in his hands. “Danyue…… Can Danyue’s words be trusted? I heard that Danyue’s the very reason for Brother Six’s downfall.”


  “Impossible!” Brother Steel was so anxious that perspiration started to appear on his forehead. “Sister Danyue is Brother Steel’s most trusted aide. If she betrayed Brother Six, he would have died much sooner……”


  “Shut up!”


  The eye-patch guy yelled at him. Brother Steel also felt it was not right for him to say that.

  He hummed in hesitation, his face showing a beseeching expression.

  “Second Brother, you know that I’m honest and am not good with words…… Heheh, please let me off? I’ve always been loyal to Dark Clan……” Brother Steel then pointed behind him. “The police found our base and wanted us to surrender. I’m risking my life to inform boss this piece of news……”


  “Crap! Just continue spinning your lies!” The eye-patch guy was not interested to listen to him.

  His gaze slowly turned to Huang He. “You said that this person is not with the police?”


  Brother Steel quickly continued, “He’s not! He used to be, but not now.”


  The eye-patch guy gave a snort. He suddenly pointed and poked the gun roughly on Fang Yuanyuan’s temple.

  “But why do I feel that he’s an undercover?”


  Under that force, Fang Yuanyuan tilted her head to a side powerlessly.

  It was painful and humiliating!

  But there was nothing that she could do……

  As for Huang He…… he behaved as though he did not see what had happened.

  Brother Steel looked at Huang He and then at the eye-patch guy. He was feeling very uneasy and worried.

  The girl that Huang He mentioned to him earlier, should the girl who was in front of them now?

  Brother Steel felt that he got played again.

  But with regards to the mastermind who plotted this whole thing, he was unable to come to a conclusion.

  Moreover, at this time, he was caught in a tight spot. Even if Huang He was really an undercover, the only way out for him was not to admit that.

  “Second Brother, I can guarantee that he’s really not an undercover—really, if not for him, back when we were at the villa, we would have been wiped out already. No way that we would be alive till now……”


  “If you bleeping died at the villa, would our base be exposed?” the eye-patch guy roared angrily.

  “.…… No.” Brother Steel gasped. “But you won’t be able to see me anymore.”


  At that moment, the eye-patch guy thought that Brother Steel was capable enough to infuriate him to death.

  “You moron! Who wants to see you anyway? You’re being played around like a fool by the police and still wanted to bring the police to find boss? Are you tired of living?”


  “Second Brother…… Brother Crown Prince is really not a cop!”


  Brother Steel was so worried that he wanted to kneel down to prove Huang He’s innocence if that could help.

  “Not a cop, huh?” The eye-patch guy suddenly revealed a sinister smile and used his gun to lift Fang Yuanyuan’s chin.

  With some strength, Fang Yuanyuan’s pale face was held up high by him.

  There were obvious reddish strangling marks on her neck due to her fair complexion.

  Huang He squinted his eyes slightly.

  The eye-patch guy was observing Huang He and then glanced at Fang Yuanyuan from the corner of his eye and pulled out the rag abruptly which they had used to gag her.

  “Little girl, you know him, right?”


  Fang Yuanyuan kept quiet.

  The eye-patch guy laughed. “Tell me, is he with the police?”


  Fang Yuanyuan looked away.

  The eye-patch guy squeezed her chin and turned her face back, and then he looked toward Huang He again. “You’re sure a tough one, like a wild kitten! I like it. How ’bout this? As long as you tell me the truth, we will let you go. What say you?”


  Fang Yuanyuan’s eyes were fixated on a pine tree swaying by the winds on the mountain. “I do know this person.”


  “Continue!”


  “He’s my ex-boyfriend, an unfaithful scum! The traitor of the police force as well as a shameless *sshole!”


  “Aiyo!” The eye-patch guy laughed again. “Did you watch too many dramas?

  Fang Yuanyuan closed her eyes. “Believe it or not!”


  “D*mn you! Don’t push your luck!”


  The eye-patch guy ran out of patience and slapped Fang Yuanyuan.

  That hurts!

  Fang Yuanyuan almost shed a tear.

  Reddish marks of that slap appeared on her fair face. But she bit her lower lip and resisted the urge to cry.

  She told herself.

  The eye-patch guy could not stand her stubborn behavior and squeezed her neck hard.

  “Are you bleeping going to talk or not?”


  Fang Yuanyuan thought for a while and pursed her lips to form a smile.

  “Why do you ask me? Just treat him as a cop will do. It’s none of my business even if he’s dead or not! You bunch of b*stards who only know how to bully women. If you’ve guts, then hurry up and finish him off! He’s definitely a cop! He’s the bleeping cop that should go to hell!”


  Her words were merciless!

  Her eyes were also glaring at Huang He as well.

  The hatred in her eyes almost spilled out of her eyes.

  “He betrayed me when he got together with Tian Danyue—he deserves death and he’s a cop. Just kill him!”


  As the winds on the mountains howled, she was yelling.

  The eye-patch guy did not stop her.

  Huang He, on the other hand, just looked at her without a word.

  “Just kill him! Kill him!

  “Kill this unfaithful scum!”


  Fang Yuanyuan was like a lunatic as she yelled.

  “You bunch of people who only know how to bully women but got your knees weak when you see the real police?”


  “Hahahaha!” The eye-patch guy cackled at her words. “What a spunky young woman! I’ve seen many women but none quite the same as you!”


  He looked at Fang Yuanyuan’s swollen face and squeezed her cheek.

  “Tsk, tsk, tsk, such a delicate girl! So pitiful! It’s nothing really. He doesn’t want you, I want you……”


  As he said this, his lips formed a sinister smile and looked coldly at Brother Steel.

  “Tell me then, why did he dump this woman and mixed around with someone like Tian Danyue?”


  “Well…… he had a reason to do so.” Brother Steel tried to defend.

  “Of course there’s a reason! He had depended on Tian Danyue to get close to Brother Six!”


  “Even so, it was an extenuating circumstance for him, right?” Brother Steel continued, “He hated the police and wanted revenge so he got close to Brother Six. Second Brother, sometimes, things need not be so complicated!”


  “What the crap are you talking about!”


  “.……”


  Brother Steel had a glum face.

  He had already said all he could to defend himself and Huang He.

  He had already tried to invoke sympathy in them, as well as being servile.

  “Brother Crown Prince, say something! Hurry up and explain to Second Brother!”


  Brother Steel had said this loudly.

  And immediately after that, he quickly whispered to Huang He.

  “.…… If we don’t make ourselves clear, we’re going to die here!”
