The Crippled Boss Loves Me Chapter 218 - Stop!

Chapter 218: Stop!

The man chuckled. He seemed to appreciate her greed and ruthlessness. He replied, “Okay.”

“And…” Cheng Liu lowered her eyes. There was strong malice in her eyes. She said hoa.r.s.ely, “I want to add one more person.” She opened her red lips slightly and said a name.

“A greedy young lady,” the man laughed softly. His voice gradually sounded deranged as he said, “The person you mentioned is not easy to deal with, but it doesn’t matter. I like this. Go ahead and do it. After the matter is done, I will give you another 20 million.” The man actually easily doubled the amount.

“Deal!” Cheng Liu smiled in satisfaction. She did not seem to be worried that the man would go back on his word, nor was she worried that the man would not give her the money. She lifted the hem of her skirt and stood up. She bowed elegantly and said, “Please prepare the money and wait for my good news.” She had been sitting alone in the corner of the wall and crying bitterly just a moment ago. Now it seemed as though she had been reborn into a new person in a short period.

Cheng Liu walked elegantly into the bathroom. She hummed a light and happy tune. She washed her face calmly and touched up her makeup. Then, she smiled sweetly at herself in the mirror. She looked at her face in the mirror and casually thought, ‘Since I’m already in h.e.l.l, then no one else would be able to have a good time. Let’s all go to h.e.l.l together!’

Thinking of this, Cheng Liu sneered, turned around, and returned to the banquet hall.

There were too many people who came to talk to her, and Shen Hanxing could not help but feel a little tired after dealing with them for a long time. She got up and put on her coat, temporarily hiding outside the banquet hall. At this moment, the sky was gradually getting dark, and the lights in the alley not far away were dim. She crossed her arms and breathed in the cold winter wind. She felt the cold air enter her nose, and her muddled head finally felt clearer.

At this moment, a slender figure flashed at the entrance of the dark alley. Very quickly, that figure pa.s.sed through the dark alley and walked deeper into the alley. Shen Hanxing was a little puzzled. That figure looked very familiar. But it was so late, what was that person doing in the depths of the alley?

After hesitating for a moment, Shen Hanxing made a prompt decision. She picked up the mop that the cleaning staff had placed at the door and followed. The sound of high heels. .h.i.tting the ground was fast and urgent. Shen Hanxing stood at the entrance of the alley and only then did she realize that this alley was not a straight road like it appeared to be, but rather, it had a lot of twists and turns in various directions. The dark alley was like a ferocious monster with its huge mouth open, lurking in the endless darkness, quietly waiting for its prey to come to its door.

Shen Hanxing had a bad premonition. She grabbed the mop in her hand tightly. She turned on the flashlight as she walked in. At the same time, she raised her voice as she called out, “Zhuang Yu, Zhuang Yu, are you here?” She did not know why Zhuang Yu was alone in such a dark alley at such a late hour. However, Zhuang Yu had just won the right to inherit the Zhuang Corporation. At this time, there would be many people who disliked her…

Shen Hanxing’s voice echoed in the alley, but the alley was empty and no one answered. Could it be that she had seen wrongly? Shen Hanxing came out in a hurry and only had a coat over her dress. Her exposed calves were cold, and white mist gathered around her lips as she breathed. She was really anxious and confused. If she wanted to know if that person was Zhuang Yu, she could just make a phone call!

Shen Hanxing laughed at herself. Just as she took out her phone to make a call, she suddenly heard a m.u.f.fled groan not far away, followed by the sound of a heavy object falling to the ground. The uneasiness in her heart grew stronger. She could not care about anything else, so Shen Hanxing quickly chased after the sound.

Just as she was about to reach the location where the sound came from, Shen Hanxing turned on the flashlight on her phone. She saw a figure lying on the ground and another figure standing beside the person lying on the ground. The figure was wearing a cap and a mask, and he was holding a baseball bat in his hand. He was about to hit the person lying on the ground with his baseball bat.

“What are you doing?!” Time was of the essence, so Shen Hanxing did not care too much. She threw the mop in her hand and shouted coldly, “Stop!”

That person did not expect that someone would suddenly appear. He was stunned for a moment, and then he turned around and ran without hesitation.

“Stop!” Shen Hanxing’s eyes were cold. She raised her foot and chased after him for a bit, but she saw that person running around the corner like a gust of wind. She did not know which direction he escaped in.

Shen Hanxing was wearing high heels, so it was not suitable for her to run for a long distance. After chasing him for a bit, she did not see anyone. Thus, she decisively chose to give up.

“Zhuang Yu?”

Shen Hanxing squatted in front of the girl who was lying on the ground. When she saw that it was really Zhuang Yu, she hurriedly helped her up. “Zhuang Yu, wake up! Are you okay?” As she spoke, she nimbly checked Zhuang Yu’s injuries.

She did not know why Zhuang Yu would run into this alley that was like a labyrinth. Zhuang Yu was not even wearing a jacket, she was only wearing a thin dress. Zhuang Yu’s body was trembling uncontrollably, but Shen Hanxing did not know whether it was from the cold or the pain.
