Hearing the commotion, Shura glared and gritted his teeth, "You bastard, if you dare touch her again, I will never forgive you!"
The thug chuckled twice. "I didn't expect Mr. Xiu to be so chivalrous. Fine, for your sake, I won't touch her. But this woman won't speak, not because I'm stopping her."
Shura took a deep breath, trying to suppress his anger. "Turn on the speakerphone. I want to say a few words to her."
"Speak," the assailant said, then put the phone on speakerphone.
“Fei’er…” Xiu Luo uttered two words, his voice trembling slightly, “Don’t be afraid, I’ll come find you soon, be good, don’t be afraid.”
"Mmm." Upon hearing Shura's voice, Qifei finally hummed in response. Her eyes were filled with tears, but she stubbornly refused to let them fall.
As a pomegranate spirit, even though she's a ten-thousand-year-old pomegranate spirit, Qifei has always been spoiled.
Moreover, she grew up deep in the mountains, devoted herself to spiritual practice, and made friends with kind-hearted people.
When she first came into this world, she felt tired even taking one extra step.
But this time, she was blindfolded and tied up in some unknown place, and she remained silent.
Even when the thugs tried to make her speak to threaten Shura, she remained silent.
She just hoped that Shura wouldn't fall for the villains' tricks because of her.
But when Shura's voice came through the phone, it instantly brought tears to Qifei's eyes.
Her skin was already delicate, and her face swelled up immediately after being slapped by the thug.
Tears streamed down her face, and even with her face swollen, her stunning beauty was still undeniable, making her look incredibly pitiful.
A lewd glint flashed in the thug's eyes. He had never seen such a beauty before. "Hehe, Young Master Xiu is indeed lucky. This is the first time I've ever seen such a beauty."
"From this moment on, if she loses even a single hair, no matter what your purpose is, you will face the relentless wrath of my entire Xiu family." Shura's words seemed to come from hell, sending chills down the spines of the thugs.
"As long as Young Master Xiu cooperates, I will naturally not touch her for the time being." The thug's lewd grin made Xiu Luo want to twist his head off.
"Now, please proceed to the designated location, Young Master Xiu."
The call was disconnected again. Without further hesitation, Shura strode toward the warehouse the thugs had mentioned.
Qi Fei's tearful "hmm" just now made his heart clench tightly.
He had to get to Qifei's side before the thugs changed their minds.
He had always known Qi Fei's delicate nature, and the most important thing was that she was heavily pregnant, which made him even more nervous, wishing he could tear the thugs to pieces.
The warehouse at 7-10 looked quite ordinary. Without hesitation, Shura opened the warehouse door, and a musty smell wafted out.
This is a warehouse that has been unused and abandoned for a long time.
The warehouse was filled with many wooden crates, some of which were scattered about, their contents unknown.
As Shura stepped into the warehouse, the warehouse door was suddenly closed.
Shura didn't pay any attention and was just getting used to the warehouse that had suddenly turned dark.
It was very dark in the warehouse, and it took him a while to adjust before he could barely make out the outlines of some boxes again.
The thug's clearly altered voice echoed in the warehouse, "It seems our Mr. Xiu is truly deeply in love. He has indeed come for his wife."
Shura's expression was cold and stern. "I've arrived now. Where is my wife?"
"Heh heh, don't worry, we'll let you two meet in time." The thug's voice was smug. "But before that, there's a request I'd like Mr. Xiu to make."
Shura narrowed his eyes slightly. Had the fox's tail finally been revealed?
"explain."
"As long as Mr. Xiu signs a document, we will naturally reunite you and your spouse." As the thug's voice fell, a light suddenly lit up in front of Xiu Luo, revealing a stool underneath with a document and a pen on it.
Shura picked up the document and scanned its contents.
This is a transfer agreement requiring Shura to transfer all of his shares in the Shura Group to Giant Company.
Giant Corporation? Shura had never heard of this company.
It's most likely a shell company used for transferring assets.
Shura sneered, "What a huge appetite, wanting all the shares in his hands."
Seeing that Xiu Luo hadn't made a move, the thug's voice rang out again in the warehouse, "Mr. Xiu, I wonder if you think money is more important, or the lives of your wife and children?"
With a snap, another beam of light shone, and Shura's heart almost stopped beating.
Qifei's hands were tied, and she was suspended in mid-air by ropes, her head down so that her expression could not be seen.
"Fei'er!" Shura cried out, his eyes wide with fury, and ran towards Qifei.
“Mr. Xiu, as long as you cooperate and sign the documents, I will naturally put Mrs. Xiu down.”
"Put her down first. I need to see her safe and sound before I sign. Otherwise..." Shura said coldly, "You should know that I can sign, but only if my wife and child are safe and sound."
"Oh my, I never expected that our renowned Xiu family patriarch would be so chivalrous." The thug laughed, "Alright, I'll grant your wish."
The thugs didn't seem to doubt Shura's words and actually put Qifei down.
Shura reached out and caught Qifei as she slowly fell. Qifei's face was a little pale, and her wrists were chafed and bleeding from being suspended in a sling.
"Fei'er, how are you?" Xiu Luo looked at Qi Fei anxiously, his whole body trembling.
"I'm fine." Qi Fei smiled at Xiuluo, moved her wrist, and found that the injury was not serious, only superficial.
But... she held her stomach, because when she was hoisted up, although she was very calm, her stomach still involuntarily contracted.
Her stomach felt a little tight, but she didn't say anything.
It's pointless to say anything now; it will only cause Shura unnecessary worry.
"Mr. Xiu, I've put the person down. Shouldn't you keep your promise?" the thug urged.
Shura helped Qifei to a stool and sat her down. Without hesitation, he signed his name. "I've signed it. When will you let us go?"
"Hahaha, good, that's great!" the thug laughed. "Now put the documents on the wooden box diagonally in front of you."
Shura glanced at Qifei, placed the documents on the box as instructed, and then returned to Qifei's side.
"I've given you the things, can we go now?"
"Leave?" The thug chuckled maliciously. "Since when has the head of the Xiu family become so naive?"
"Being able to reunite you two as a couple is already my greatest act of kindness. Remember to be a pair of star-crossed lovers in the underworld, hahaha."
"Uh..." The thug's arrogant laughter stopped abruptly, and Shura and Qifei exchanged a glance.
"Are you still there?" Shura asked tentatively, but there was no response.
