" Fine, let's not drag this any longer. My client wants you to stay away from Ahn Qiao Fu " Mu Fan looked straight into her eyes, meaning he is serious about it. "If you do not compile, I will not stop following you and find ways to make you stay away" he warns her.
Zhou Qin Yang was surprised that Mu Fan actually said those words, she tries to hold her laughter " And here you are sitting in front of me, tied to a chair"
He must be an idiot.
Mu Fan knows his words don't hold much of a threat but he has to distract her and Sinclair so he can escape from here " I can easily get out of here. My client will stop at nothing to ruin people who foils her plans."
Now Mu Fan start to wonder whether it was Zhou Qin Yang's doing, the news and pictures that he bribed new outlets to publish them online never appeared at all. When tried to contact them about the situation, none of them answered his calls.
" What ? You mean those fake news you tried to publish? " Zhou Qin Yang looks at her nails and smirks " They are easy to settle within a few seconds. Is that all you got? "
" Of course, I have others in store-" before he finished his sentence, Zhou Qin Yang cuts him off with a cold glare " You are dragging this way too long. Sinclair, take away the blade he has in his hand"
Mu Fan's eyes widen when he heard Zhou Qin Yang, he kept the blade well hidden on his body. There is no way she knew that he had a blade on him, Sinclair takes the blade off him by force " You must be surprised how I knew right?"
She laughs in an insulting way " You should do more research if you want to get rid of me. So tell me who is this client of yours? "
" I am not telling you. It's working policy. "
Zhou Qin Yang look at him with deadpan eyes " Boring answer. Stab his leg with the blade." Before Mu Fan could protest, Sinclair swiftly stabs his leg in less than a second. Mu Fan grits his teeth, trying not to send out cries of pain. He glares at Sinclair whose hand is still on the blade, Zhou Qin Yang taps her feet on the floor " I will ask again, who is the one trying to ruin Ahn Qiao Fu's career? "
" I won't-"
" Twist it. "
Without hesitation and feelings, Sinclair applied pressure on the blade and rotate it. Mu Fan was out of breath when his leg started to numb, he groan in pain " You do not benefit me so I won't tell you."
" Oh~ So it needs to be beneficial ? " Zhou Qin Yang chuckles, she thought of why someone like him still could keep his job even though his skills is not professional. Zhou Qin Yang finally stood up and lower herself to Mu Fan's eye level " How much did your client pay you? A million? Two million? I can triple the price."
Mu Fan squeeze his eyes to distract himself from the blade on his leg, his blood wouldn't stop bleeding. Sinclair applied pressure once more to make sure Mu Fan is still conscious " Han Er Mo."
Zhou Qin Yang's eyes show glints of interest when she heard the name, the corner of her lips lift up " The CEO of Golden Perfume? I was expecting their director of PR or something."
Zhou Qin Yang knew even though Ahn Qiao Fu looked calm and surprised that day of the incident but inside he was fuming with anger for trying to use his sick mother against him. She thought of an idea to make Ahn Qiao Fu's anger subside. She stood back up and turn her heels away from Mu Fan " Sinclair, release him. Make sure he keeps he cleans up the mess he made"
"Wait..." Mu Fan calls out before Zhou Qin Yang walks out of the door.
Zhou Qin Yang stop her tracks but she did not turn to look at him. Mu Fan tries to look up at the small frame in front of him " This has nothing to do with you all. It is between Han Er Mo and Ahn Qiao Fu. Why are poking your nose in it? "
Zhou Qin Yang smiles and open the door " People who wants to mess with my family, have to deal with me first."
