Ke Wenjie struggled to think. In that old era, what did they use to accomplish their goals? Could it really be guns? He tried to recall the name of the CEO of Yi Sheng Architecture. What was it again? Hou something… Yes, Hou Yi!
He raised his head and pleaded with Sun Hu, "Sun Zong, please, I truly don’t know how I’ve offended you. I have no grievances with President Hou. It’s just that our collaboration didn’t work out; it shouldn’t come to this, right? I have an elderly parent and young children to care for. My wife is pregnant. Can you let me go? I can pay you, is that alright?"
Sun Hu gestured to his underlings, who handed him three copies of a contract. He slammed the contracts down in front of Ke Wenjie and ordered, "Sign here and put your thumbprint! This deal must be done with Yi Sheng Architecture at market price! We’re not taking advantage of you, are we? And you won’t take advantage of us either. It’s fair, isn’t it? So I don’t understand why you were complaining on the phone earlier. What’s the matter? If Yi Sheng Architecture isn’t losing money on this deal, you won’t agree? So we have to take a loss of six hundred thousand just to make you happy? Who do you think you are?"
As he spoke, Sun Hu struck Ke Wenjie’s face with the dagger he held.
Ke Wenjie was stunned by the blow. He dared not retort or refuse; with the contract thrown in front of him, he had no choice but to sign and leave his thumbprint. He needed to save his life. In such a dire situation, he believed Sun Hu could indeed kill him!
He signed without even reading the contract. No matter what happened next, survival was his priority. Once he safely left this place, he could think of other ways—either call the police or seek out the local power players to deal with Sun Hu and Hou Yi!
Sun Hu checked the contract and found no issues. He ordered his men to put the hood back on Ke Wenjie and then had him lifted into a vehicle.
Ke Wenjie expected to be thrown back into the van as before, but this time it seemed to be a comfortable sedan filled with a faint fragrance that resembled men’s cologne.
After driving for over half an hour, they stopped by the roadside.
Ke Wenjie was kicked out of the car, and then Sun Hu untied him and removed the hood.
Still adjusting to the blinding light, Ke Wenjie took a moment before he could see clearly around him; he realized he was at the police station.
Rubbing his eyes, he glanced back at the vehicle—a black sedan followed closely by the van that had kidnapped him.
Sun Hu stood beside the van with his gang of men who looked fierce and intimidating. Meanwhile, in the elegant black sedan sat a man who appeared to be from a wealthy family.
Quickly, the man from the black sedan opened the door and stepped out. It was Hou Yi; he had brought Ke Wenjie here himself.
Hou Yi's calves and knees still throbbed painfully from where Tong Le had kicked him; he walked with a noticeable limp.
Wearing a light gray tracksuit, Hou Yi approached Ke Wenjie and squatted down slightly, speaking coldly, "Are you itching to call the police on me?"
He pointed toward the police station behind Ke Wenjie. "Look, I personally brought you here. Should we go in together? You report me while I turn myself in—how does that sound? After all, you report first and I follow up with my confession; do you really think anything will happen to me?"
Hou Yi laughed—a mocking sound filled with provocation aimed directly at Ke Wenjie.
Ke Wenjie shook his head vigorously.
Hou Yi spoke coldly, "I have given you the opportunity. If you go in now, I won’t stop you. But if, after I leave, you secretly call the police, guess what will happen next?"
A sinister smile spread across Hou Yi's face as he fixed his gaze on Ke Wenjie. The intensity of his stare sent chills down Ke Wenjie's spine and made the hair on his neck stand on end.
Ke Wenjie had considered calling the police, but he never expected this madman, Hou Yi, would personally deliver him to the entrance of the police station! Such audacity confirmed one thing: even if he reported Hou Yi, it was unlikely that anything serious would happen to him.
After thinking it through, Ke Wenjie realized that reporting this incident to the police would likely result in nothing more than a charge of disturbing the peace. Furthermore, since he had just signed a contract that was probably legal and compliant—otherwise, Hou Yi wouldn’t be so confident—the police were even less likely to impose any heavy charges on him.
Ke Wenjie felt utterly defeated. He had never been humiliated like this before! Not only had he been beaten, but he had also been forced to sign a contract and even wet himself in front of everyone! And now, standing right at the police station's door, he found himself too cowardly to report it!
He felt like he wanted to die.
