Li Sheng brought her to a lavishly decorated private room and coldly shoved her forward. 0
"Go in and perform well. After this deal, I promise all your debts will be cleared by this benefactor. Remember, don’t pull any tricks." 0
 
Lin Mo bit her lip, tears welling in her eyes. 0
Her fingers trembled slightly, her nails digging deep into her palm; the pain was nothing compared to the despair in her heart. 0
She stood frozen in place, her legs feeling as heavy as lead. Memories of the past few days flashed through her mind, and she realized that at this moment, she was like fish on a chopping board, ready to be slaughtered, stripped of even the last shred of dignity. 0
 
"Hurry up!" 0
Li Sheng growled impatiently from behind, jabbing the back of her with the butt of his gun. 0
 
Lin Mo stumbled slightly but managed to steady herself. Her trembling fingers reached for the cold doorknob. 0
The dim red light from inside the room seeped through the crack of the door. 0
The air was thick with the smell of alcohol and perfume, making her feel nauseous! 0
She took a deep breath, trying to calm her wildly beating heart, but she couldn't shake off the fear inside her. 0
 
"Don't make me say it twice." 0
Li Sheng's threatening voice came from behind her. 0
 
With a gentle push, she opened the door to the private room, revealing opulent decorations and the dim glow of a crystal chandelier. 0
The room was empty except for a strong, handsome man sprawled on the sofa, seemingly asleep under the influence of alcohol. 0
His suit jacket was half-open, revealing an expensive shirt underneath, and he loosely held a goblet in his hand; the red wine inside shimmered eerily under the light. 0
 
"Hello, sir... can we talk?" Lin Mo swallowed hard and asked cautiously. 0
The man showed no reaction, still keeping his eyes closed. 0
 
Lin Mo carefully stepped forward two paces; in the dim light, she finally saw his face clearly. 0
In that instant, her heart nearly stopped! 0
It was Xu Yuxin. 0
The president of E.O Group, who commanded respect in the business world and struck fear into countless opponents, lay defenseless before her now. 0
His brows were slightly furrowed, as if even in sleep he bore some displeasure. 0
 
 
Lin Mo bit her lip, countless thoughts flashing through her mind. She knew this might be her only chance. 0
 
“Sir…” she called softly, her voice trembling slightly. 0
 
Xu Yuxin's eyelids fluttered but he did not wake up. The effects of alcohol had plunged him into a deep sleep. Lin Mo took a deep breath and tiptoed over to his side. Her fingers trembled as she carefully reached into his suit pocket to retrieve his phone, hoping to call for help. 0
 
Just then, Xu Yuxin suddenly grabbed her wrist! 0
 
“Looking for death?” His voice was low and dangerous, a glint of coldness in his eyes. 0
 
Lin Mo was startled, nearly letting out a scream as the phone fell with a thud onto the carpet. She tried to break free but found Xu Yuxin's grip astonishingly strong. 0
 
“Sir, I…” 0
 
“Playing innocent?” Xu Yuxin sneered, using his other hand to grip the back of her neck and pull her closer. “Is this your trick? Seducing men and then stealing from them?” 0
 
Lin Mo felt his hot breath on her face, mixed with the rich scent of red wine, making her dizzy. 0
 
“No, I wasn’t trying to steal anything…” Lin Mo was desperate, tears almost spilling from her eyes. “I just wanted to call the police; I’m being threatened…” 0
 
“Call the police?” Xu Yuxin's gaze turned even more dangerous as he yanked Lin Mo into his embrace. “Do you think I would believe such a clumsy lie?” 0
 
Lin Mo froze at his sudden movement. She could smell the expensive cologne on him, mingled with a hint of alcohol, which made her head spin. 0
 
“I’m telling the truth; there are people outside with guns…” 0
 
Xu Yuxin narrowed his eyes, scanning Lin Mo up and down. His grip on her wrist remained tight, almost leaving bruises on her delicate skin. 0
 
 
"Are you all in this together?" he asked coldly. 0
