Xu Chaomu moved a bit to the side, farther away from Bai Man.

She closed her eyes, leaned against the wall, and didn’t move.

Bai Man kicked her with her foot, a hint of fear in her voice, “Hey, Xu Chaomu, talk to me, don’t sleep!”

Xu Chaomu dodged her and said disdainfully, “Are you scared?”

“Scared of what? I just want to tell you, we’re in the same boat now. Why don’t we think of a way to escape?”

“Do you think you can escape from here? Use your brain, Miss Bai. Stop bothering me, I want to sleep.”

Xu Chaomu ignored her and hopped to the side.

Ever since she found out that it was her once beloved third brother, Shen Shihan, and Zhou Peitian who had teamed up to kidnap her, she no longer wanted to escape.

She thought, if Shen Shihan’s heart was ruthless enough, then just take her life.

She didn’t care.

“Xu Chaomu! Xu Chaomu!” Bai Man called out a few times.

This time, Xu Chaomu simply ignored her.

Bai Man was very afraid, trembling non-stop.

Outside, the wind was strong, the rain heavy, the waves pounding, and even the most stable of ships showed signs of rocking.

When the passenger ship Shen Chi was on came by, Zhou Peitian and his men quickly moved over in a small boat.

They docked, threw the rope, and boarded with great speed!

As soon as Zhou Peitian jumped onto the deck, he saw Shen Chi sitting alone in the coffee shop, drinking coffee not far away.

In Zhou Peitian’s eyes, Shen Chi was mature, composed, detached, and a rare elite in the business world.

However, at that moment, with the cold rain beating against the window and the night deepening, the coffee shop was empty except for Shen Chi. But Zhou Peitian saw on the wicker chair opposite Shen Chi a stuffed doll pillow.

It was a very cute doll, with curly hair, a silly face, and big, sparkling eyes, obviously something kids would like.

Zhou Peitian’s first reaction was that Shen Chi bought it for Bai Man’s child.

He gestured for his subordinates to wait outside and quietly walked into the coffee shop by himself.

Approaching the coffee shop, the strong aroma of coffee wafted out.

There was only a cup of coffee in front of Shen Chi, who sometimes stirred it and sometimes glanced up slightly.

Every time he looked up, he would just catch sight of the doll on the chair opposite him.

With a twitch of his eyebrows, the corners of his lips slowly rose.

Zhou Peitian had just reached the door when Shen Chi sensed something and his hand touched the gun in his coat pocket.

“President Shen, long time no see, hope all is well,” Zhou Peitian said with a sinister smile.

Hearing Zhou Peitian’s voice, Shen Chi also sneered coldly, unfazed.

Sure enough, Zhou Peitian had come.

“President Zhou, do you like not sleeping at night and coming out in the rain to climb aboard ships?”

“We can’t be as leisurely and carefree as President Shen, can we?”

Zhou Peitian walked up to Shen Chi and took off his half-wet coat.

He was just about to move the doll away when Shen Chi barked coldly, “If you want to sit, go elsewhere!”

“Oh, President Shen sure has grown quite a temper. Who’s this doll for? President Shen, you went all the way to South Africa and should have brought back some diamonds. Buying a doll… Heh, President Shen, you really have unique tastes.”

“Zhou Peitian, did you come here alone?”

“Otherwise, who else would President Shen like to see?”

“We can skip the nonsense, Zhou Peitian. You’ve come to me for the contract, haven’t you?”

“Ah, President Shen, you’re so straightforward. Negotiating with a person like you must be efficient and quick,” Zhou Peitian clapped his hands, sarcastically.

“Zhou Peitian, if you had the capability, you would have gone directly to Zuma to negotiate. Do you really need to come here and play games with me?”

“How is that playing games? I just feel that I have more fate with this diamond mine. Why doesn’t President Shen just sell it to me?” freewebnσvel.cѳm

Shen Chi sneered coldly, his facial lines taut.

“Zhou Peitian, I think your wife and I also share quite a bit of fate. Do you want to consider selling her to me?” ƒreewebηoveℓ.com

“Motherfucker! Shen Chi! Watch your language!” Zhou Peitian was instantly furious.

“What’s wrong? Isn’t it true?” Shen Chi said with a chilly tone, his eyes as deep and dark as a bottomless pond.

Just like the sea on this deep night, unfathomable.

“Stop fucking around! I’m here sincerely to talk to you. Name your price, and if I can afford it, we’ll make a deal.”

“Name my price? How about thirty billion? Do you want it?”

“Shen Chi, just how black is your heart? Or, do you have no intention of transferring the contract to me?”

“Zhou Peitian, it’s good to see you know yourself well. Can you manage the diamond mine if I give it to you? I’ve heard that your subsidiaries have been failing one after another, and now you’ve set your sights on this diamond mine. I’m saying, Zhou Peitian, will you have to sell your son and daughter after a while?”

“Shen Chi, beware of speaking too absolutely. I want to see who will be selling their children first!”

A sly, cold smile appeared on Zhou Peitian’s face.

Shen Chi didn’t know Bai Man was still in his hands, did he? Otherwise, why would he still be so arrogant!

“Fine, Zhou Peitian. You know I, Shen Chi, won’t give in. If you can, have Shen Shihan come talk to me!”

Shen Chi’s patience had worn thin. He slammed his hand down on the table, his expression cold.

“Is that so? Shen Chi, then I’ll tell you, I’m here today specifically for this contract!”

As soon as his words fell, Zhou Peitian’s gun was pressed against Shen Chi’s temple.

Zhou Peitian let out a smug, cold laugh, “We can see whose hand is faster.”

Shen Chi’s face did not show any disorder; he sat in the chair, a mocking smile spilling from his lips.

“Zhou Peitian, do you dare to make a move before getting this contract?”

“True, I won’t act without the contract. But if you push me too hard, who knows what might happen.”

“Zhou Peitian, but I dare to make a move.”

Shen Chi looked ahead calmly, his eyes crimson and ice cold—a chill so piercing it could make holes in the walls.

Zhou Peitian was taken aback. This man was decisive, and he had to watch out for him.

His grip on the gun tightened, “Shen Chi, if you dare to move, I’ll pull the trigger first!”

Shen Chi stood up, emitting a powerful aura.

Zhou Peitian’s gun hand shook. He didn’t know what Shen Chi was planning, but he didn’t dare to shoot rashly either.

“Zhou Peitian, why doesn’t Shen Shihan come himself?”

“Don’t bring up the irrelevant. Now, where’s the contract?”

“The contract? It’s been mailed back to our country,” Shen Chi commented with a chilling smile, reminiscent of opium.

“That you can’t fool me with. Someone witnessed you boarding the ship with the contract… Bring out the contract, and we can negotiate nicely.”

“Then put down the gun, so I can get the contract, shall we, President Zhou?”

“Impossible!” Zhou Peitian only pressed the gun closer to Shen Chi’s head, “You walk in front, I’ll follow!”

“Alright, then let’s go somewhere else to discuss this thoroughly.”

Shen Chi took steps forward, and while speaking to Zhou Peitian, he had already noticed that Zhou Peitian had brought quite a few people along, hiding in the shadows.

Just as Shen Chi stepped out of the coffee shop, there was a sudden power outage on the entire ship!
