A man with a small build clutched his arms and yelped. Some burly men grinned and looked at her creepily while teasing the scrawny man.
“San’er, why were you in a rush? We haven’t even made a move on her. Isn’t it rude that you have?”
“That’s right, you were in too much of a hurry and got scratched by our little wild kitten. Let us do the job, and we’ll leave you a bit of the pie at the end.”
“Stand aside and don’t be a hindrance.” A tall man with arms full of tattoos pushed aside a yelping San’er.
The man’s eyes slightly squinted with satisfaction as he looked at a nervous Hua Shengan.
“Stop waving around your little awl and come with us obediently. We promise to make you so happy that you don’t want to go home.”
The tattooed man stepped forward and stretched out his big hand to pull Hua Shengan. He stared disturbingly at Hua Shengan’s fair and smooth exposed arm.
“Stop!” Hua Shengan voice was stern. The ruthlessness and iciness in her eyes deluded him. This was not the reaction that a young girl should have. The dark look in her eyes terrified others, and the tattooed man unknowingly curtailed his expression and frowned at her.
“What are you trying to say? Don’t tell me you want us boors to court you then advance to the next step. That’s too slow and we don’t have the patience. It’s better to be straightforward!”
“That’s right, we are all about sharing our joy!”
“Nan, don’t tell me you really wish to talk about love with this little wild kitten!”
Several men who did not notice her expression laughed and some whistled, and for a moment the alley was filled with laughter. Hua Shengan glanced around but no one had shown up to rescue her. She quietly pressed the help button on her phone again while buying time with the men.
“Who hired you guys and how much did they offer you? Tell me, and I will pay you double the price.” These people want nothing more than money. Money can solve anything.
“We are in for the money. Since we took the money, we need to solve the problem. We want more money,
yes,
but not from you. It’s all about loyalty out in these streets. The other party wants you, and not your life so you just have to cooperate. Who knows, you might be able free yourself later on!”
The tattooed man looked at the fearless woman who had become less attractive in his eyes. This little wild kitten had a strong temper and San’er got attacked when they hadn’t paid much attention just now. If it hadn’t been for the authoritative power of the other party, he would not be involved.
“You are right. No one has come to rescue me so far. It seems that I can’t escape. I know who hired you guys even if you don’t tell me. Don’t think that he’s so capable just because he watched the doors for a few nightclubs. In my eyes, he is just a dog, a pretty boy toy.”
As the expressions on the faces around her changed, Hua Shengan knew very well in her heart that she had been set up. No wonder Lin Xue and Hua Ranran had spoken so loudly today about their plans to play cards, even instructing Aunt Rongyi not to cook for them. It was for her to hear and to fool her.
Hua Shengan realized that she had been too anxious. She had followed someone wearing similar clothes as Lin Xue to find her path suddenly blocked by these people and trapped in this alley.

It was only when she flung her bag at the men that she remembered the metal dart that Xiao Chengjue forced her to carry around everywhere, and the specially customized phone.
There was a button specially customized on the phone for her to use in emergency situations. Although she did not know if he could protect her, she still carried hope. If she was kicked out of the game without having taken revenge, then she would be a disappointment to the gods who allowed her to be reincarnated.
Hua Shengan’s hand which held the weapon trembled slightly. Both mother and daughter were wolves. She had been tolerant and weak in her previous life as she had allowed their bullying behavior for the safety of everyone at home. However, when she became a hindrance to them, one wanted her life, and the other wanted to destroy her innocence.
“Loyalty? Don’t be ridiculous! The money I have in my hands is enough to last you for a lifetime. You won’t need to take orders from another person anymore,” Hua Shengan replied chillingly as she smirked with contempt and displayed an elegance unlike others.
The men looked at each other as her words appealed to them. It was difficult not to admire her self- confidence. They were in for the money after all! If it meant getting more money than from the one they were currently serving, that was great news.
The tattooed man saw the flash in Hua Shengan’s eyes and laughed. He shouted loudly, “My boss has been good to us. Look at what you guys are thinking, you fools. Besides, this lady is not going anywhere. Let’s do whatever we’ve been instructed. We have this lady in our hands, and she’s got to choose between her money or her life. In the end the money is still ours.”
“As long as you don’t touch me, I can pay you double the amount plus five million.” Hua Shengan threw out a figure in response. She found the tattooed man difficult to deal with. She stepped backwards and stood with her chest out, her face icy cold.
“Do you really think we are stupid? You belong to us now, and so is your money. It’s late now. Let’s not have your delicate body freeze in the cold so you should cooperate with us.” The tattooed man eyed the other men and they moved forward together, slowly shrinking the distance as his tall shadow loomed over Hua Shengan.
“Remove your filthy hands, or I will use this!” Hua Shengan shouted loudly and waved the metal dart in her hands. The two men in front of her retreated a few steps, but the scrawny man had already moved behind her quietly without her knowing and hit her shoulder with a bat.
Hua Shengan grunted and gritted her teeth as she swiped backwards with her right hand. The dart pierced her right rib obliquely through to her left shoulder, and blood gushed out. The bright red sight caused flashes of when she had been bleeding when Hua Ranran pierced her abdomen before her reincarnation. She wailed at the heartbreaking memory.
The heart–wrenching wail expressed her unwillingness to die, her sorrow for her unborn child, her dejection of having yet to avenge herself, and her despair at the people who had successfully harmed her again.
