Problematic Little Sister Fell In Love With Me - Chapter 250
Chapter 250: Chapter 250 Love? No, It’s Dignity!
The gunman wearing a face mask guarding the stair, who was more steadfast than the others, looked at me. The cold light flashing in his sharp eyes made people shudder, and he asked the costume masked man in doubt, “Do you know him?”
“Mhm,” the masked man chuckled softly and sighed, “A good man.”
This answer made everyone stunned. Looking at Long Yifan’s surprised expression when he was looking at me, I couldn’t help cursing secretly. He should be more familiar with this masked man than I was, right? Rather than questioning why I knew him, he should ask himself what his family did to those people! It was definitely because of something they did in the past that caused those people to do this kind of thing today!
“So, did you really plant bombs in the manor?” I couldn’t help but clenched Dong Xiaoye’s wrist. This could be regarded as I asked him on behalf of the police.
The masked man asked me back, “What do you think? Mr. Chu.”
Ignoring Dong Xiaoye’s puzzled eyes, I sighed and smiled bitterly, “I don’t know what kind of problem you have with the Long family, but I really have to admire your intelligence. There is indeed no other identity that is more convenient for you to do this kind of thing. No wonder the police and the Long family have not noticed it. . .”
I dared not expose his identity, because I couldn’t figure out what he was thinking. God knew if he would kill me if I exposed his identity in front of everyone. I could only try my best to secretly give Long Yifan a hint. Although I didn’t know how it would help the current situation if Long Yifan figured out who he really was. . .
Even a fool would know that the costume masked man really knew me after hearing that him calling me Mr. Chu in a polite tone a few times. All the hostages were looking at me with hope as if I could save their lives. Even Mo Fei was no exception. However, I knew clearly that the situation became even more dangerous now.
“What do you mean?” As my heart sank deeper, I didn’t even bother to fake a smile, “Why did you let me recognize you?”
When Dong Xiaoye heard that I really recognized the identity of the masked man, her face was full of surprise. “Chu Nan. . .”
“You shut up!” I interrupted Dong Xiaoye and said, “When men are talking, women should keep their mouths shut!”
Dong Xiaoye was not stupid, knowing that I was warning her not to reveal her identity. However, when she was scolded by me in public, she still couldn’t help blushing in embarrassment. ‘Oh, my dear Sister Tiger. Even if you want to feel embarrassed, can you at least choose a better occasion, right? We are in a very dangerous situation right now, arlight!’
The costume masked man looked at Dong Xiaoye. It made me feel nervous. Fortunately, he quickly turned his eyes back to me and said calmly, “Mr. Chu, do you still remember what I said before? I said that I always believe in the phrase ‘good people will be rewarded’. Although I am a little angry that you did not believe me, it is undeniable that you are a genuine good person. Anyway, I will use my actions to prove it. You can leave now. I’m sorry for the inconvenience that I have caused you tonight.”
He actually wanted to let me go? I didn’t doubt my ears like Mo Fei and Dong Xiaoye, or even the hostages who were still crouching on the ground, although I didn’t know why I suddenly became calm, “there should be more than just one good person here, right?”
“No, there is only one, and it is you,” the costume masked man sneered. “I only believe in my own eyes.”
“Is this an excuse for justifying your action? Denying all the good people here so you can feel good about yourself?” I mocked him, “Letting me go? Is it because you think I am the same kind of ‘good person’ as you?”
Hearing my blatant ridicule, the costume masked man was not angry. He still said in that indifferent tone, “You are a good person, and they are not good people. In terms of us, in the eyes of everyone here, we are not even considered as people at all. However, whatever we are, there is still a bit of humanity in my heart, Mr. Chu, I hope you will not become the one who forces me to obliterate the last trace of humanity I have.”
This guy obviously didn’t intend to let others go. I was not a fool, nor was I a superman. Since I couldn’t save more people, of course, I wouldn’t force myself, “what about them? Can they go with me?”
“Mr. Chu, I think what I said is very clear. In here, I only see a good person.” The costume masked man’s words instantly extinguished the flame of hope that had just ignited in my heart. “My brothers and I will keep our words. You should have died for these two women just now, but I didn’t kill you, and let you go as agreed. So, Mr. Chu, you should feel fortunate.”
How scheming! Knowing that I was probably the poorest man amongst all the guests, and I would not be able to pay a ransom of one million, he decided to let me go instead of letting Mo Fei and Dong Xiaoye leave. In this way, not only would they just let go of someone that had no value to them, but they would also make other people believe that they would fulfill their promises. It was such a clever trick! Coupled with the methods he used to deal with Long Yifan, it was enough to see that he was a shrewd guy who knew how to analyze the psychology of others!
“Chu Nan, please go,” Mo Fei did not see through the sinister intentions of the costume masked man. She tried to persuade me, “Just call my uncle and he will send money to ransom me immediately. . . And Miss Dong’s.”
“Yes, Chu Nan,” Dong Xiaoye said to me with the speech that contained a hidden meaning, “You tell him the situation, he will save us.” The “him” Sister Tiger mentioned was not Mo Yizhi but the police outside.
Those two women. One of them was the strong woman in the business world, and the other was the brave policewoman. They were not stupid people, but they were still deceived by the costumed masked man easily. They subconsciously let down their guards, thinking that he would really keep his words and let me go. However, the more they believed him, the more I couldn’t let them stay. It seemed that I still had no chance to ask Chu Yuan why the sofa was still damp. “If I leave like this, the police will definitely treat me as an accomplice. Hehe, I still think it is better to let two women leave.”
Mo Fei and Dong Xiaoye hurriedly said in unison, “Chu Nan!”
The costume masked man’s voice also became colder. He reached out his hand to stop Man Zi who wanted to rush up to hit me, “Mr. Chu, don’t be foolish. Do you think that I dare not to kill you?”
My legs were soft, but my mouth was still very stubborn, “I don’t know. Just like I don’t know if you will kill other people in this manor. So I like something that I am certain of.”
“If you save them, you think they will thank you? Mr. Chu, saving a damsel in distress is no longer a romantic thing to do. Romance without a reward is just plain silly. If you die, they may be moved for a while, but over time, they will still forget you and find other men. It’s not worth it.”
I glanced at the dozens of hostages in the hall and finally took a look at Mo Fei, who made me feel very complicated, and Dong Xiaoye, who often troubled me and was troubled by me. Then I smiled at the costume masked man, “You’re right, no one here deserves me to do this. If you say that I can use my life to exchange for everyone’s life here, then I will leave without hesitation, because I don’t think I’m a good selfless person at all. People always think that other people’s lives are cheap and their own lives are precious. In this regard, I am the same as them, but these two women are different because they are my life. Yes, when I die, they will forget me one day, but now I am still alive; so as a man, if I leave them here, I will look down on myself in the future. Instead of regretting for the rest of my life that I was not manly enough at the beginning, it’s better for me to die like a man!”
Hearing me say this cringy line passionately, the hall fell into a weird silence for a while, only the suppressed sobbing of a few weak children could be heard. . .
The two women also couldn’t help but blush. The costumed masked man was dazed for a while before asking curiously, “It is because of love?”
I said proudly and shamelessly, “It’s dignity! They symbolize my dignity, and dignity is the life of a man!”
. . .
“Hehe, Dignity, hehehe…” the costumed masked man chuckled uncontrollably, and said sarcastically, “Mr. Chu, I have seen too many men who don’t want to lose their faces, but you are the first man who would want to die to save your face. In the end, you still think that I dare not to kill you, right?”
Seeing that the costume masked man moved his hand, Mo Fei suddenly said coldly to me, “Chu Nan, didn’t you say that there is nothing between us? Then why do you care about me? Can you please just go, please don’t torture me anymore, okay? !”
“You idiot, why are you talking so much nonsense?” Dong Xiaoye cursed, “I told you a long time ago that I won’t be fooled by you!”
These two girls really didn’t give me any face. . . I was touched, knowing that the two of them were worried that I would offend the costume masked man. But I didn’t believe those gunmen’s words at all. Not to mention that I had hit the gunman called Man Zi, who knew if after I left, he would take his anger out on those two women. . .
Ignoring those two women, I said to the costume masked man, “Actually, I still don’t trust you.”
“So you want to use your life to verify?”
“It’s better than regretting it for a lifetime,” I gathered my courage and said, “Regretting it for a lifetime is torture that is worse than death!”
