Chapter 382: Dark Lights and Long River (IV)

Song Nian found it difficult to describe the shock in his heart at this moment.

This big brother who, in her eyes, always cared about her, actually said such words to her.

Her eyes were red, and for a moment, complex emotions surged, and she choked and said hoarsely: "I am not"

"You're not? Aren't you willing to stay because you're greedy for Lu Zhinian's wealth?" Bai Shuci laughed coldly, looking at Song Nian as if he was looking at trash. There was deep disgust in his eyes, and he said coldly: "If I had known you were this kind of person, I wouldn't have suffered so much for you!"

Song Nian knew that it was useless for him to say anything now.

Many things cannot be resolved just by arguing endlessly.

She lowered her head and said nothing more, only whispered: "Then you can go now. I'm sorry that you feel so bad about my encounter."

Bai Shuci's sneer intensified. He stood up with great effort and stared at Song Nian in front of him, his eyes full of ferocious anger. "Look at you, you were the one who wanted to run away, and you were obviously the root of everything, but Lu Zhinian was like a blind man, he didn't even touch a hair of yours! Song Nian, I was so badly injured because of you! Do you want to write off all this just by asking me to leave?"

Song Nian's mind was blank. Every word Bai Shuci said made the string of reason in her heart tighten a little.

She was exhausted for a long time, and said, "So what do you want? How do you want me to make it up to you?"

Bai Shuci's eyes gleamed, and he said anxiously: "Go and copy that USB drive again and give it to me, Nian Nian. I really need this thing to gain a firm foothold in the Bai family!"

Song Nian stared at Bai Shuci in a daze. She didn't know how to respond to him. After a long while, she said helplessly, "Brother Shuci, I have no way to get this USB drive now. I can't do what you asked."

"Either you can't do it, or you simply don't want to do it!" Bai Shuci's expression became more and more ferocious.

He stared at Song Nian's face, grabbed her arm fiercely, and squeezed it tightly without mercy. "Do you know how hard it is for me to get to where I am today? Those people in the Bai family look down on me! Everyone looks down on me! So, I want to let them know that I am the one who deserves to be cared for the most! I want to be the next person in charge of the Bai family, so that no one will look down on me anymore! Song Nian, you know how much I have paid for today, why don't you help me! How can you be so cruel!"

Song Nian's tears fell. She shook her head and choked up, "I can't help you. I'm sorry, I really can't help you."

The ferocious and cruel look on Bai Shuci's face was gradually covered by coldness.

He looked at Song Nian, his eyes scrutinizing him, and suddenly sneered, saying, "It doesn't matter if you can't help me. I shouldn't have counted on you in the first place. Song Nian, there will always be someone willing to help me!"

Before Song Nian could react to what Bai Shuci was saying, the latter pulled out a dagger from somewhere and pointed it at her neck.

At the moment the accident happened, there was more disbelief than fear.

Song Nian just couldn't understand why the two people who clearly admired each other in the past had become like this.

So, at the moment when the short blade was pressed against his neck, Song Nian felt more confused.

The confusion in her eyes was profound. Feeling the faint pain in her neck, she whispered, "You want to use me to threaten Lu Zhinian? Shuci, there will be no result if you say that."

"Shut up!" Bai Shuci's eyes were red, and he said viciously: "I hate your innocent look the most! If Lu Zhinian didn't like you, you would have been eaten up by the Lu family without leaving a bone! Song Nian, I really hate your naivety!"

Song Nian's lips trembled subconsciously. She stopped talking and just thought in her heart that she seemed to understand why Lu Zhinian asked her to meet Bai Shuci. Was it just to let her see what kind of person Bai Shuci was?
"I shouldn't have felt any compassion for you in the first place. I should have taken the USB drive and ran away. I actually had the crazy idea of ​​going abroad with you! I'm really crazy!" Bai Shuci gritted his teeth. He moved the knife closer to Song Nian and warned him coldly, "From now on, you do what I say. Don't try any tricks!"

Song Nian's lips trembled and turned pale. She said in a hoarse voice: "What do you want to do?"

"Take me to see Lu Zhinian! Now! Immediately!"

Song Nian did as Bai Shuci said without any hesitation.

She had no room to refuse, and now with a knife at her neck, she realized that she was indeed naive.

In this world, no one except Lu Zhinian would care about her life or death.

The two walked in the dark room, and soon returned to where Lu Zhinian was.

The man didn't seem to be surprised by the scene in front of him. He looked at Bai Shuci and sneered. His handsome and fair face was full of sarcasm. He said slowly: "Is this how you treat her? Is this what you said, to take Song Nian away from the cannibalistic Lu family?"

Bai Shuci's face was in dismay. He clenched the sharp blade in his hand in anger and growled, "I want you to give me the USB drive! Give it to me right now!"

"Give it to you?" Lu Zhinian sneered. He said, "You are going to use Song Nian to make me give you my life and property. Why do you think Song Nian is worth it?"

Bai Shuxi was unsure, and he subconsciously brought the sharp blade close to Song Nian's neck, and soon, a bloody mark was left.

Lu Zhinian, who had been looking relaxed, suddenly changed his expression and said coldly, "If you dare to hurt her, I guarantee that even if you get what you want, you won't be able to leave!"

Bai Shuci finally reacted and quickly moved the knife away.

However, Lu Zhinian's reaction gave Bai Shuci a very favorable signal.

He sneered, with an expected smug expression: "It seems that Mr. Lu is still reluctant to let Song Nian die."

"As long as Song Nian is alive, you have a chance to live." Lu Zhinian looked at Song Nian coldly. The latter's eyes were full of tears. As he looked at her, his chest inexplicably tightened.

Bai Shuci put down the knife, pursed his lips, and said coldly: "I ask you, do you want to change?"

Song Nian also stared at Lu Zhinian blankly.

Lu Zhinian smiled, and he returned to his initial state of watching the fire from the other side of the river, very proud, "Change, of course."

A subordinate handed over a USB flash drive that had been prepared early in the morning. Greed flashed across Bai Shuci's eyes. He was about to take it when Lu Zhinian spoke again.

"Mr. Bai, you've been watching for so long, isn't it time to come out?"

Bai Shuci's face froze, and he looked at Lu Zhinian in shock. The next moment, an old man in a Zhongshan suit walked out from behind the screen in the dark.

His face was gloomy, and he was staring at Bai Shuci without blinking, furious: "Rebellious son!"
