Chapter 1012 Shao Qi's Whereabouts
After a moment of silence, Yan Yi said slowly with a bit of doubt and curiosity,
"What benefit did Shao Qi give you that you would rather die than reveal his whereabouts?"
The man slowly raised his head and opened his mouth but no words came out. Only hoarse breathing sounds came out of his throat.
His condition looked very bad, his face had turned pale blue, and he looked like he would close his eyes and die at any moment.
But Yan Yi remained indifferent.
He even changed to a more comfortable position, drank a sip of water, and then suddenly remembered something and said,
"It's not just your life that's at stake, it's the lives of your entire family."
Yan Yi smiled. Without his glasses, the hostility in his narrow eyes was no longer blocked. Together with his cold and casual tone, it enveloped people like an abyss.
"What a shame. Your daughter is quite pretty and she just had her fifth birthday."
The man stiffened, then began to tremble violently.
He suddenly looked up at Yan Yi with a ferocious look like a wild beast. His bloodshot eyes were filled with unbelievable fear and hatred that made him want to eat his flesh and drink his blood.
Yan Yi smiled, he leaned back in his chair slowly and said,
"You don't think that Shao Qi, a stray dog, can still protect your family, do you?"
"Stop dreaming,"
Yan Yi stood up and walked out, patting his shoulder as he passed by.
"You have two hours before you die. Think about it carefully during these two hours."
"Is the life of your daughter and wife more important, or is Shao Qi more important?"
The man's footsteps quickly disappeared in the vast space. Brother Long threw the man to the ground, glanced at him coldly, and turned around to follow him.
The light was pale, and the man curled up in pain like a shrimp on the ground.

Shen Pianpian knelt on the sofa, resting her elbows on the back of the sofa, supporting her cheek and staring at Cheng Zhiyuan in a daze.
The man threw the chopped tomatoes into the pot and asked knowingly without even turning his head.
"What are you looking at?"
"Look at you."
The girl was still in a daze.
"Mr. Cheng, don't you realize that you are very good-looking?"
“It didn’t exist before, but it exists now.”
The girl's eyes finally moved. She gave the man a look of disdain, slid into the sofa, and lazily lay down.
"Why didn't I realize before that Mr. Cheng has the ability to be narcissistic?"
"I'm just self-aware."
Mr. Cheng responded seriously without changing his expression.
The girl burst out laughing, but the smile only lasted for a second before she fell down as if being pulled by something.
She stared at the ceiling for a long time before she said in a trance,
"Is this sequelae of mine incurable?"
The man who was busy at the kitchen counter paused for a moment, then heard the girl continue to talk to herself.
"Now even smiling feels forced. I don't know why, but I just feel so gloomy. It's like the world and the sunshine are covered in a layer of fog. It makes me feel completely boring."
“And it seems like there’s no end in sight.”
Cheng Zhiyuan reached out to turn off the fire, wiped his hands, and walked down two steps towards the sofa.
During this time, the girl was silent for a few seconds and suddenly asked,
"Do you remember the medical record you showed me? The one you borrowed from your aunt?"
Cheng Zhiyuan sat down beside her without changing his expression and asked,
"I remember, what's wrong?"
"I just feel that,"
The girl looked straight up and murmured,
"I'm only moderately depressed, but I feel so miserable and bored, and even have suicidal thoughts occasionally. So what is that person going through?"
