The CEO’s Pet Cat

Mia’s figure was no longer visible, and Asher deflated, once again returning to his previous disheveled state, he didn’t bother to care what Lena had to say, and headed for his car, the throttle blasting and his silhouette was gone in a blur.

One man looked at her salivatingly and said, “Miss, that man doesn’t like you, it’s because he has no vision, why don’t you stay with me, I will treat you well.”

Riina threw a slap at the lecherous man’s face, “Get out of the way, my lady’s business is not your business yet!” Saying that, she also took her own car, smiling grimly and instructed the driver, “Go back, it’s okay.”

The driver giggled in response and turned the car on, returning to the location designated by Riina, who fiddled with her phone in the car, and not long after, it dinged, and Riina opened the short message and glanced at it, smiling in satisfaction.

The message, from a temporary number that showed an unknown city on the caller ID, read, “Got it, please, miss.”

Riina’s mood suddenly cheered up and the displeasure of her earlier argument with Asher was swept away as she replied, “Treat her well, but don’t overdo it, if anything goes wrong, you know the consequences.”

In a ramshackle factory in the far suburbs, an obscenely tall, thin man picked up his cell phone and called back, “Yes.”

The factory looked like it hadn’t been repaired in years, probably a building from the last century, and while the city was lavishly decorated on the inside, most of the exterior facilities were still incomplete, such as the suburbs, where there were no less than dozens of such abandoned factory buildings, and the one this tall, thin man had chosen was one of the most inconspicuous.

The tall, thin man was just one of the leaders of the group, and the little brother sitting on the ground with a cigarette on the side said, “Can we not watch her here, this place is broken and shitty, and this woman is trapped in such a disguise, she should be fine.”

Mia cowered in a corner of the plant, a not-quite-clean towel stuffed in her mouth, whimpering to speak.

The tall, thin man went over, took the cloth napkin off his mouth, and asked, “What do you have to say?”

Mia finally got some fresh air and took a few big breaths before looking at the man with a stern gaze and asking, “Who told you to bring me here?”

The tall, thin man laughed and said, “You are in no position to ask that question now, or think carefully about how to please the brothers so that they can torture you less.”

Mia was still relatively at ease at this point, after all, something like kidnapping was definitely about money, and she herself should be relatively safe until they figured out what was going on.

Mia thought for a moment and asked, “So, how much did the person who told you to kidnap me pay you? I can offer you double that.” She knew perfectly well that if she asked the mastermind who had instructed the gang to kidnap her again, they wouldn’t confess, so she might as well secure herself first in a different way.

A scruffily dressed man next to him said, “Boss, don’t bullshit her, if she gets anything out of her if the lady finds out, we’ll all be done for.”

The tall, thin man kicked down the short man’s body, sending the dwarf tumbling a few times and falling to the ground as he coldly snorted, “Do your boss and I look like such a clueless person, just chatting with this little beauty, what can I be set up for? Don’t you talk too much!”

An eyed man holding a game console in his hand on one side looked up, glanced disdainfully at the shorty on the ground, and also advised in a low voice, “Shorty, this woman doesn’t see how much smarter than our boss, just don’t worry.”

The eyed man looked quite a bit more civilized than the people in this room, Mia still had a better feeling about him and couldn’t help but be a bit indignant at this point, who said her IQ was just on par with a kidnapper leader, did she look that retarded?

Mia bristled and struck up a conversation, “Hey, you guys didn’t just tie me up here and let me sit around like this, didn’t see you guys call in some words, if you want money I can tell someone else to bring it to you.”

The tall, thin man smiled a little lewdly, “Little beauty is so sure that we want to rob money, why don’t we change our mind and rob sex instead!”

Mia smirked, “Can you guys not hit me or something, I’m sure you won’t rob me, I think the person on the phone just told you not to touch me, otherwise I wouldn’t see any semblance of malice in you.”

The tall, thin man was a bit embarrassed, “She didn’t tell us not to touch you, she told us to take special care of you for a bit, but you’re such a pretty little girl, I kinda can’t lay my hands on you yet.”

Mia froze at her words, her mind was racing, letting these guys toss a hostage, it seemed they were determined to make things difficult for her, she had been staying at home lately, she hadn’t offended anyone, who was looking at her so badly.NôvelDrama.Org owns this.

As if suddenly blessed, Mia remembered the malicious, mocking gaze she had inadvertently glanced at Lina before leaving today, and she carefully tried, “That, the one who told you to kidnap me, wasn’t it Lina?”

The tall, thin man had been just sitting down in a corner by the wall, when he almost jumped in shock at the sound of his voice, “How did you know?”

Mia smiled slightly and didn’t say anything, she actually just wanted to blow up the gang, she didn’t expect this boss to be a real no brainer, she only tried it a little and said it.

The eyed man playing the game next to him glanced bitingly at the tall, thin man and grunted, “Boss, can you cut the crap and call Miss Lina over now and tell her her identity has been compromised.”

The tall, thin man hesitated for a long time, and by the time he finally picked up the phone his hand was shaking in trembling, he knew the way Lina punished people, and he didn’t know if this was a big mistake, and what he feared most was Miss Lina’s punishment.

The tall, thin man didn’t dare not to tell Lina the news, their hearts were already not in unison, and there was no guarantee that someone would give Lina a small report in order to get to the top, and then he would have to eat his words.

“Miss Lina, I, this is Zhao Xing.” The tall, thin man dialed the phone with his tongue tied a little, and looked aside as Mia couldn’t help but laugh.

Lena’s voice on the phone was soft, a false attitude she was used to, “What’s up? That chick told you guys to take care of me, did you do it?”

Zhao Xing rubbed his trouser leg with one hand and said bitterly, “We haven’t done anything to her yet, but there was an accident, and the woman already knows that you ordered the kidnapping of us.”

The other side of the phone was silent for a long time before Riina’s voice came, “It’s okay, you guys help me knock her around, it’s best to give her delicate face a few blows, see how she can still seduce men in the future.”

I could see that Lina was in a good mood at the moment, if it was usual for one of her men to spoil her business, she would have either had someone beaten up or fined her salary for the month, Zhao Xing replied with words of gratitude, “Don’t worry Miss Lina, I will follow your instructions, I won’t let this chick get hurt!”

Mia had been listening intently to the man on the phone, ears pointed up in an attempt to hear what was being said on the phone, and this Zhao Xing had been grunting and responding before, when the last sentence steepled Mia.

When Zhao Xing put down the phone, he walked towards Mia with a sardonic smile, and Mia shrank back into the wall, but nay, her hands and feet were tied, and the movement to escape was too minimal.

“Will you leave me alone? I can give you whatever you want.” Mia could see that this Zhao Xing was up to no good and asked with a crying face.

Zhao Xing smiled evilly, “Little beauty, I actually really didn’t mean to touch you at first, but who let you guess Miss Lina’s identity, leading me to make this call, and now that Miss Lina has asked me by name to take good care of you, of course I had to do so.”

Mia was silent, she knew that benefits or anything else could not impress Zhao Xing now, under Lina’s accumulated authority, this Zhao Xing had become a dog of Lina’s loyalty.

Zhao Xing stepped forward, seeing that there was still a bit of hesitation in his eyes, but in order not to let his brother look at him funny, he moved decisively and walked up to Mia and put a foot on him, saying with his mouth, “First, I’ll give you a kick, as an early warm-up.”

He was about to kick a second time when he was stopped, the man with glasses on the other side who was always holding the game console and playing it stood up at some point, he pulled Zhao Xing to a halt, his voice tone was smooth, “One kick is almost enough, look at her shrinking in pain, so that’s something to say to Miss Lina.”

The room was silent at first, and soon there was sparse coos of laughter up, Zhao Xing looked at the eye man for half a day, also laughed, listened to his words to stop his feet, walked to the other side and said, “Xiao Cheng, you are not going to like this little beauty, right?”

Love at first sight was something that most people believed in, but yet they rarely saw it, and Xiao Cheng had been so indifferent to anything that no one expected him to be the one to stop Zhao Xing.

“It’s nothing, don’t talk nonsense.” The teenager named Xiao Cheng saw that Zhao Xing gave up his intention to continue beating up Lina and also retreated to the corner and sat down as if his stopping hadn’t happened before, and returned to that I’m playing the game everyone ignore me state.

A couple of men next to him coaxed louder and louder laughter, and he pretended not to hear them, just frowning, and stayed immersed in the game.

Zhao Xing smiled and sat beside him and said, “Xiao Cheng, I always thought that you were just a cold and monstrous man, but I didn’t expect that you also had feelings, if you like this chick, I will cover for you even if I disobey the lady’s orders.”

The eyed man impatiently peeled away Zhao Xing’s hand on his shoulder and was silent for a long time, and just when everyone thought he wouldn’t answer, he surprisingly said, “Thank you Brother Xing.”
