Cao Jun paused for a moment, then bowed and pleaded, "Jin Tian Ge, could I ask you to accompany me to the Jun Jun base? Our base was taken and turned into a bandit's den. I cannot let them continue like this. If you help me this time, we will repay you with all our might in the future."
The two exchanged glances, and Xu Qian frowned. She didn't want to, but Jin Tian had already wanted to teach those bullies a lesson. She couldn't just think of herself.
"Jin Tian, you decide."
Xiang Jin Tian knew she had agreed. "We can go with you, but we won't show ourselves."
Cao Jun was so grateful he was moved to tears. His painstakingly built base had become like this. He was truly heartbroken.
Half an hour later, three cars arrived at the base. There wasn't even a guard at the base entrance, and the gate was tightly shut. Everyone got out of the cars with confused expressions. The group cautiously approached the gate, but there was no activity.
Xu Qian's thoughts stirred, and a ladder appeared by the wall. "Go in."
Everyone was a well-trained soldier. They climbed the ladder lightly, landing softly. There was no one inside either. They were very familiar with the base, and this situation usually meant a meeting was in progress. The group headed straight for the plaza. Hearing faint voices, they quickly found a nearby room, opened a crack in the window, and looked out.
Bai Ruo was crying profusely, her voice hoarse as she yelled, "Brother Biao is dead. It's just me, a woman. You want to bully me! Dream on!"
The muscular man smirked. "Stop pretending. Didn't you kill Brother Biao? Hand over the things in your space obediently! Don't whine here!"
Bai Ruo let out a hollow laugh and said fiercely, "I'd rather die than give it to you!"
These people were inhumane. After Yang Biao died, she had told them the whole story, but they threatened her, demanding she hand over the things in her space. If she really gave them everything, they definitely wouldn't let her go.
A cold glint flashed in the muscular man's eyes. It seemed torture wasn't enough. "Someone, tie her up."
Bai Ruo's face changed, her expression terrified. She yelled loudly, "What do you think you're doing?"
The muscular man laughed heartily. "Of course, we'll take turns with you, until you're willing to talk. The boss's woman, everyone is very interested, right?"
Bai Ruo's whole body trembled, her face pale. "You animals! Animals!"
The muscular man chuckled. "Then hand over the things obediently, don't be so stubborn."
The onlookers watched with furrowed brows throughout. Cao Jun didn't care about Bai Ruo's life or death. He was curious why there were so few people left in the base? And why were all the remaining ones men? Where were the women, children, and the elderly?
Bai Ruo remained defiant even facing death. The men stripped her, tied her hands and feet to a stool.
Bai Ruo finally began to fear. Although she had many men, there were over three hundred men here! The muscular man looked at her fair, tender body, the heat in his lower abdomen suppressed. "How about it? Hand it over, or not?"
Bai Ruo braced herself and forced out a cold smile. "I told you, I won't give it to you even if you kill me. If I die, you won't get a single grain of rice!"
The muscular man hadn't expected the woman to be so stubborn, but he was also afraid that if she truly died, they would have nothing to eat or drink. The muscular man's expression softened. He squatted down and took her hand. "Tell me, what do you want?"
Bai Ruo knew she had succeeded. A faint smile appeared on her innocent face, and she said fiercely, "I said it earlier, let me go! I'll be the leader of the base, and everyone in the base will have enough to eat from now on! Don't agree? Then starve!"
