Guan Ju used all her strength to fumble around for the phone on the chair. Her mind became increasingly dizzy, and she started to experience double vision when she looked around.

Guan Sheng saw that she still refused to close her eyes, so he shouted coldly.

“Take another whiff!”

Guan Ju deliberately dawdled and, acting as if her arms had no strength, she slowly picked up the medicine bottle. Under Guan Sheng’s gaze, she leaned her nose again and took another whiff of the drug. However, at the same time, her finger pressed the emergency call button on her phone.

It worked!

Guan Ju threw the medicine bottle aside and stuffed the phone into her underwear while her mind was still clear.

Before she lost consciousness, a ridiculous thought flashed through her mind.

Fortunately, Luo Han did not manage to tie the back of her gown properly when they were being intimate just now.

..

After an unknown amount of time, Guan Ju slowly opened her eyes.

“Hiss.” She took a deep breath, and twisted her neck to look at her surroundings. Her heart sank.

Sh*t.

She and Luo Han were tied up together, and the rope around their bodies had almost tied them into dumplings.

Forget it, the rope was as thick as a baby’s fist.

Guan Ju looked down, and her heart grew colder.

They were hanging from the roof of a high building; a hundred meters in the air! The rope on their bodies had been soaked in water, so the more they struggled, the tighter it became. Guan Sheng had really been careful.

However, feeling the bulge of the phone in her underwear, Guan Ju relaxed again. She had modified the phone, and there was an emergency signal transmitter inside. She had pressed the launch button at the last moment, which would send a distress signal to Feng Yuan.

Feng Yuan was her subordinate and also her most loyal partner.

He would definitely come to save her.

“You’re awake?”

Luo Han’s low voice could be heard. Guan Ju turned her head to look at him and squeezed out a bitter smile.

“I’m sorry, I’ve implicated you.”

“Don’t talk nonsense, it was clearly me who implicated you.” Luo Han looked around and immediately understood the situation the two of them were in.

“Enough, there’s no need to get all emotional. It’s time to put on a show.” Guan Sheng’s voice came from behind them.

The two of them swayed in the air and turned around to look at Guan Sheng with great difficulty. When they saw what Guan Sheng was holding, their expressions changed.

It was a candle.

The flame was burning, slowly licking at the rope. It would only be a matter of time before the rope burned. Once the rope snapped, the two of them would also fall to the ground.

They were hanging at a height of 100 meters in the air!

If they fell from this height, they would certainly die!

Guan Sheng looked at the constricted pupils of the two of them with satisfaction and spoke slowly.

“Both of you are well aware of your situation. Luo Han, I won’t waste any more words with you. As long as you sign the agreement now and return Guan Corporation to me, I’ll release both of you if you inject another one billion into the corporation.”

One billion.

Guan Ju’s heart turned cold as she stared at Guan Sheng.

She understood that with this one billion, Guan Sheng would be able to make a comeback.

He was forcing Luo Han to return the corporation to him as well.

Luo Han did not say anything. Guan Sheng becameimpatient and pushed the candle closer to the rope.

“You won’t give it to me? It doesn’t matter. I’ll burn the rope right now and let both of you die together as a pair of miserable lovebirds.”

As soon as he finished speaking, Luo Han spoke in a cold voice.

“You’re willing to do such a thing? She’s your daughter!”

“Forget it, she doesn’t have a father like me in her heart anyway. What’s the use of having such an unfilial daughter?”

Guan Sheng did not listen and snorted again.

“As long as I have money, I can have as many women as I want. It’s easy for me to have a few more children. Luo Han, my patience is limited. If you don’t give me what I want now, both of you can go to hell.”

After he finished speaking, he raised the candle up high.
