Even if Henry was from V country, he had heard of this internationally renowned miracle doctor.
He could naturally recognize the jade pendant in her hand.
"You're not lying to me?" He was excited, his eyes sparkling as if he had seen a glimmer of hope.
Yi Tianran was indeed giving him his only chance to be a decent human being: "Of course."
Henry's expression was a mix of laughter and tears. "You know what? In the first place, I called you here to replace Xu Zhe."
Xu Zhe's face darkened, and he glared at him angrily, "What exactly are you planning?"
Henry's expression was frenzied: "It's very simple! If she really cares about your life, let you go, tie her up and put her in the pot, then watch her suffer scalding pain from boiling water while trying to save you, making it a lifelong shadow and nightmare for you. I won't kill you, I'll make you live to witness all of this, and make you wish you were dead!"
He discussed the chilling plan in the most nonchalant tone.
Xu Zhe trembled all over, a strong tremor rising in his heart.
That madman!
There is absolutely no cure.
He wanted to remind Yi Tianran, but seeing her expression, his throat felt blocked, and he couldn't say a word.
“Now, I regret it.” Henry gradually calmed down, a smile appearing on his face. “Give me a chance, and I will live.”
Yi Tianran asked in a deep voice, "So, the deal was successful?"
Henry nodded slowly and dropped the dagger in his hand.
Yi Tianran breathed a sigh of relief: "Then let's bring Xu Zhe up."
Henry lowered his head, grabbed the rope, and slowly lifted Xu Zhe up.
Just as they were about to reach the second floor and were about to be rescued.
Henry abruptly released his grip, causing Xu Zhe to fall again. He then drew another dagger from his waist. "Did you really think I would forgive you? I'll raise your expectations to the limit, and then send you plummeting back to hell. Xu Zhe, die!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the sharp blade was about to cut the rope completely.
The next second, a jade pendant struck his wrist with pinpoint accuracy.
A sudden numbness ran through his hand, and the dagger fell to the ground in an instant.
"Hahaha..." Henry covered his trembling hand, his face contorted, and said, "I knew all along that you couldn't possibly have any good intentions. You thought you could save his life by knocking my dagger away with a jade pendant? How naive!"
He crouched down, picked up the dagger, and was about to strike again.
The next moment, two well-trained figures rushed forward from behind, grabbing his hands from the left and right, and kicking him in the knee.
His knees were in excruciating pain, and he couldn't help but kneel down with a "thud," wincing in agony.
"You're really naive!" Yi Tianran's mocking laughter rang out from downstairs. "Do you think I'd be stupid enough to barge in all by myself? Even you know to send help to block them outside, so why wouldn't I send more people? If it weren't for stalling for time, I wouldn't bother talking nonsense with you."
Xu Zhe: "..."
So, when Yi Tianran gave him a subtle wink, it was to tell him to calm down, because she already had a backup plan.
After the bodyguards above restrained Henry, they quickly pulled Xu Zhe up.
We're finally out of danger.
Only at this moment did Yi Tianran finally breathe a sigh of relief.
Although she appeared calm and spoke with such certainty, there was actually a great risk involved.
The rope that tied Xu Zhe to was so thin that she was afraid it would suddenly break halfway through the journey, which would be a nightmare for her!
Fortunately, everything is still in time.
After being rescued, Xu Zhe twisted his neck, clenched his fists, and walked step by step toward Henry.
Before he could even beg for mercy, they beat him mercilessly, leaving him bruised, swollen, and with blood streaming from his mouth.
Still not enough to vent my anger, I said, "You bastard, you are absolutely unforgivable."
"The winner takes all, the loser is condemned. This time, I was outmaneuvered and lost to you all." At this point, Henry was already risking his life. He grinned, revealing a mouthful of bloodied teeth, and taunted, "But I'm already satisfied with fooling you. Go ahead and kill me if you dare!"
A strong killing intent surged up to his head.
Xu Zhe's all-out punch was about to smash into his face, and it could really kill him.
At the crucial moment, Yi Tianran appeared and stopped him, saying, "Don't fall for it, you fool."
She walked over step by step, her expression indifferent: "He was already a dying man. If you kill him, wouldn't you just dirty your own hands?"
Xu Zhe thought about it and agreed, but he was still furious. "This guy is really despicable. It would be too good for him to die."
Henry sneered, looking incredibly smug.
The next second, Yi Tianran sneered, "Of course I can't let him off so easily, I haven't even made my move yet!"
"What do you mean?" Xu Zhe asked, puzzled.
Yi Tianran raised an eyebrow and walked up to Henry, using a dagger to lift his chin. "Henry, you think you're hopeless and aren't afraid to die, but what I just told you is all true. Your father personally sought help from that miracle doctor to save you. You had a chance, but you gave it up yourself. If you don't believe me, you can contact your father and hear what he has to say."
Henry's smile froze.
He choked on his blood, almost spitting it out.
Yi Tianran continued to stab him in the heart with a smile, "Also, you don't care about your own life, but you seem to care a lot about your sister's life, don't you?"
Henry's pupils contracted sharply, and a look of fear appeared on his face: "You... what do you want?"
"I heard your sister is 18 years younger than you. You raised her from a young age, cherishing and loving her like a daughter, giving her the best things in the world." Yi Tianran smiled. "You treasure her so much, what if one day your family goes bankrupt and she ends up worse off than a beggar, living a life worse than death? That would be quite a sight, wouldn't it?"
Henry roared, "You're not capable!"
Yi Tianran smiled meaningfully: "Why don't you witness it for yourself?"
"No!" Henry's heart clenched violently, and his face turned a deep purplish-red. "Take your anger out on me, don't hurt my sister! She's innocent."
Upon hearing this, Yi Tianran laughed as if she had heard the funniest joke in the world, tears welling up in her eyes. "I was just giving them a taste of their own medicine. How you treated us is now being punished on you and your sister. Is there a problem with that?"
Henry's eyes widened in horror, filled with regret.
If he had known she was such a vengeful and ruthless person, he shouldn't have...
It was all too late; this was his just deserts!
At that moment, his shoulders slumped, as if he had aged ten years in an instant, and tears of blood welled up in his eyes.
By the time they left the warehouse, it was past midnight.
As the sea breeze blew through the harbor, Xu Zhe recalled the expression on Henry's face, feeling a mixture of pleasure and discomfort—
