Chapter 146: Devil’s Training
Dressed in casual wear, with a head of messy blonde hair, when the two met, they both felt that the other’s aura was no less than their own.
“Stiven.” Stiven greeted him friendly, but a shrewd glint flashed in his eyes.
Han Wuyu reciprocated the introduction, “Han Wuyu.”
Two men of equal stature thus began their first confrontation, but Stiven knew he couldn’t win, because he had lost to Stiann.
At this moment, Gu Xiaoyou hurried over, his expression a mixture of anxiety, panic, self-blame, embarrassment, and guilt.
Han Wuyu felt a sense of foreboding, but maintained a cold demeanor, feigning an urgent matter to leave. Gu Xiaoyou quietly whispered something in his ear.
Han Wuyu showed no expression after hearing Gu Xiaoyou, only casting a heavy glance at Stiven.
He didn’t know if Stiven knew that Stiann had escaped. According to Gu Xiaoyou, when he took people to the room, the person was already gone. On the balcony that day, there was a long rope, along with a pair of very high high heels.
And that time was exactly when Stiven paid his visit.
“Does Stiven know that your sister owes me quite a bit in accommodation fees?” Han Wuyu sat down on a long sofa, placing his hands behind his head, cautiously probing.
Stiven had already investigated him before coming, but apart from knowing his widely publicized news, there was almost no other information.
This indicated that he was hiding very deeply and was a formidable character.
“Oh~ How could my sister be staying at your place? She’s so ill-behaved, and you even helped her pay. I’m so sorry. Let her come back with me now, and I’ll pay you the accommodation fees.” Stiven pretended not to know about the kidnapping, speaking calmly instead.
Both sides appeared very polite, seeming like old friends meeting after many years to an outsider.
“There’s no need for accommodation fees; an exchange of items would also be acceptable.” Han Wuyu’s slender fingers quickly swiped across the screen.
“Quickly find Stiann,” Han Wuyu sent a message to Gu Xiaoyou before discarding his mobile phone and commencing the formal conversation.
From Han Wuyu’s conversation with Stiven, he learned that Stiven should have come over after returning to South Korea. There wasn’t enough time for her to leave without him noticing. Therefore, Han Wuyu was now certain of one thing: Stiven believed Stiann hadn’t escaped, but Stiann had indeed escaped.
After uttering the words of a trade, the atmosphere became unusual. Stiven knew the message clearly stated the most important item was required. He had no important items on him. He knew Han Wuyu wanted the Pearl he held, which was why he had kidnapped his sister.
If he didn’t produce the Pearl, Han Wuyu wouldn’t let her go easily. After a period of struggle, Stiven decided to hand over the Pearl. If he could get the Pearl, he would definitely be able to get it back.
Stiven carried the Pearl with him at all times, but he couldn’t fully trust him.
Seemingly seeing through Stiven’s thoughts, Han Wuyu smiled slyly, “What, you don’t trust me? I have something else to do…”
Han Wuyu feigned getting up, and Stiven quickly stood up, “I have a Pearl with me. I’ll trade it for my sister.”
