Mo Xiaoqing's gaze was icy. "It seems your young master has really gone to great lengths and put in a lot of effort to get me to talk. No matter what I say now, you'll only think I'm stalling for time, right?"
The man lowered his eyes, unmoved, and said, "Miss Mo, only you know what you're really thinking!"
Mo Xiaoqing raised an eyebrow with a chilling gaze, "Aren't you overestimating me? Look at me, a defenseless girl, what can I possibly do?"
The man in black raised an eyebrow, lowered his head slightly, and maintained a polite yet humble demeanor.
He said to her calmly, "It's not that I think too highly of you, but if the higher-ups blame us, we can't bear the responsibility!"
He then secretly made a gesture, and two people immediately ran to Mo Xiaoqing's side.
Mo Xiaoqing's dimples were still faintly visible at the corners of her mouth, and her smile was still sweet, but... in reality, that smile didn't reach her eyes at all.
On the contrary, her eyes were filled with a desolate and cold desolation.
"I've never liked being threatened. Even if you put a knife to my throat or a gun to my temple, I might not listen to you!"
Mo Xiaoqing spoke with a bright smile, uttering particularly stubborn and bloody words.
The man showed no anger at Mo Xiaoqing's lack of tact. "If Miss Mo is willing to cooperate with us, I naturally wouldn't do anything so offensive. It's all due to circumstances... so we'll have to resort to a tougher approach!"
He said this in a completely flat tone.
Upon hearing this, Mo Xiaoqing smiled innocently, "Didn't you just say that you didn't want to be discouraged by anything and that you changed your mind so quickly? Or is it that people in your line of work just like to... contradict themselves?"
"As I said, our young master only wants to invite Miss Mo over for a cup of tea. He instructed us not to fight with you, and if possible, to invite Miss Mo over politely!"
Mo Xiaoqing blinked, "Then now you..."
"But as I said, I only know how to obey my young master's orders. He told me to invite Miss Mo over politely, and I will naturally fulfill his wish. But if Miss Mo doesn't agree, I will have to use a more forceful method. Don't worry, I will absolutely not let them harm your body!"
Mo Xiaoqing's eyes darkened. "It seems this match is unavoidable today!"
He merely twitched his finger, and those men immediately pounced towards Mo Xiaoqing. Clearly, they were no pushovers; their movements were swift and sharp.
Moreover, they all tried to avoid walking on Mo Xiaoqing, as if they were afraid of accidentally hurting her!
After exchanging a few blows with them, Mo Xiaoqing realized that what the man had told her wasn't entirely false. He was probably telling the truth that the young master didn't want to hurt her.
Otherwise, given their skills, they could have easily killed her without any mercy, and captured her long ago.
But because they had some concerns in their hearts, when they sparred with Mo Xiaoqing, they always intentionally or unintentionally avoided the places where Mo Xiaoqing was easily hurt, and naturally their hands and feet were a little restrained.
Mo Xiaoqing, on the other hand, had no such concerns and could freely fight back against them.
However, no matter how freely she could act, the numbers on both sides were ultimately disproportionate.
Mo Xiaoqing barely managed to dodge a punch from the man behind her by sidestepping. Although she managed to avoid it, the force of his punch grazed her cheek.
Mo Xiaoqing blinked, her heart pounding so hard it felt like it was about to jump out of her chest.
In that split second she was stunned, another man, working with the first man, rushed towards Mo Xiaoqing with both hands, seemingly trying to knock her to the ground.
Seeing his tall and strong appearance, Mo Xiaoqing knew that she could not use his strength to defeat him, so she could only resort to trickery.
Before her mind could even process it, her body had already reacted. She placed her hands on his shoulders and gave him a smirk…
The man was stunned for a moment, and Mo Xiaoqing took advantage of the opening to do a somersault behind him...
Then, she turned around and kicked him in the face, striking his weakest spot and knocking him to the ground.
Jiang Wenjing, who had been watching their every move from a short distance away, opened her mouth unconsciously upon seeing Mo Xiaoqing's powerful and agile movements, her jaw practically dropping to the ground in shock.
But the truth is, no matter how quick-witted and agile Mo Xiaoqing was, she was unable to completely eliminate them.
She sustained some injuries after several battles. After all, no matter how powerful or skilled the female protagonist in the novel is, she can wipe out all the enemies with a single turn...
Mo Xiaoqing could never be the female lead in a novel, so... awesome!
The eight of them were already putting Mo Xiaoqing under some strain, not to mention that the man was constantly watching her from the side, so she also had to spare some energy to guard against him.
Upon spotting the vulnerability, he swiftly and decisively grabbed Mo Xiaoqing's hands behind her back, then with a swift backhand motion, completely subdued her.
Mo Xiaoqing's smile was devoid of any warmth, displaying an air of naivety. "Heh, you said you'd politely invite me over, but instead you're using such despicable means to bully me and bring me along. Doesn't your young master feel ashamed?"
