"If you don't want my life, then why are you keeping me here? Isn't it just about money? How much do you want? You name a price and I'll give it to you."
General Wu Meng asked the doubts in his heart. After what Mr. Bao had done, he felt more energetic and his voice was not so weak anymore.
"Boy, don't be so arrogant. Just because I don't want your life today doesn't mean I won't want your life tomorrow. You'd better listen to me, or you'll be in trouble. Although I, Master Bao, love money, I also follow the rules. Everything has a first come, first served basis. If you want to cooperate with me, Master Bao, then wait until you get out of here."
"Then when will you let me go?"
"It's almost time. Just stay here and enjoy my private prison. This is not something that ordinary people can enjoy. You should be thankful. Think about it carefully. If you promise not to bother Miss Shang anymore, you can get out sooner."
"Okay, I promise."
Wu Meng agreed without a second thought. He thought, "It's just a matter of a word, isn't it? How difficult can it be? Once he's free, will he be able to let them control him again?"
Wu Meng had been around for so many years, and he wasn't someone who could do whatever anyone wanted. This time, he was simply caught off guard, and they took advantage of him. If he let him go, it would be like letting a tiger go back to the mountains. He would never let them have another chance to catch him. Not only that, he would definitely turn the whole place upside down to vent his anger.
"You agreed quite readily, didn't you? But how can I believe you just by saying that?"
"Then what do you want? Will you trust me and let me go?"
Mr. Bao had a thoughtful expression. Even if Wu Meng agreed so readily, he couldn't let him go. Because Director Shang had requested that he be detained for half a month before being released.
"Go prepare some food and drinks for Young Master Wu, and take good care of him during this time. If anything happens to him, I'll break your legs."
Mr. Bao ordered his men to treat Wu Meng well.
He turned and walked towards the basement door. Seeing this, Wu Meng became anxious and quickly called out to him.
"Hey! You haven't answered my question yet! What do you want me to do in exchange for letting me go? Aren't you a stickler for rules? I've already agreed to your request, so how can you go back on your word?"
Mr. Bao didn't even turn his head, but just replied, "Let me think about it, you stay here for now."
After Master Bao finished speaking, he walked out of the basement surrounded by his men.
The basement suddenly returned to calm, leaving Wu Meng and the two people who were in charge of guarding yesterday.
"Go quickly and get him some food. Didn't Master Bao say that if anything happens to him, he will take us out. We'd better be careful with him." One of the thugs ordered another companion to get some food and drink for Wu Meng.
The henchman's companion responded and walked towards the door, while walking, he also reminded the henchman who stayed behind, "Okay, I'll go now, you have to keep an eye on him."
The henchman was a little impatient and waved his hands repeatedly to signal him to hurry up and stop talking nonsense. He watched his companion disappear on the stairs and heard the sound of the door closing. Only then did he run to Wu Meng with some curiosity.
"Hey, Master Bao calls you Master Wu. Is your family rich?"
Wu Meng stared at this money-obsessed guy. He was secretly delighted in his heart. It turned out that he was a money-grubbing guy. As the saying goes, money makes the world go round. Maybe this guy can really help him.
"Of course. Have you heard of Wendou Company?"
Wu Meng suddenly perked up, a smile flickering across his battered face. He found that in front of this man, he had regained his old confidence. However, this time, his confidence depended on the reputation of his father's company. In the past, he had never bothered to mention his father's company; all his confidence was earned through lavish spending.
The henchman said somewhat complacently, "How could we not have heard of this? The boss of Wendou Company married a young wife. This is a household name!"
"My dad is the boss of Wendou Company."
"Is your father the boss of Wendou Company?"
The man couldn't believe his ears and repeated Wu Meng's words again.
Wu Meng nodded affirmatively in response.
Small thugs like them can only hang out in some small entertainment venues at most. They rarely come into contact with even the well-known figures in the underworld, let alone the upper-class people in the white world. They have no chance to come into contact with them at all.
What he couldn't believe was not Wu Meng's words, but he couldn't believe that he could really have such close contact with such a "big shot".
He was a little distracted and excited, and he was a little overwhelmed, his little heart pounding.
After a moment of surprise, his expression returned to calm.
