Border Prisoner: The Mad Boss Seduces Her Every Night
Chapter 226 "Brother's here, sweetie."
An eerie silence fell over the warehouse.
The sea breeze continued to pour into the broken window frames, stirring up dust and sawdust from the ground. In the distance, the deep whistles of ships echoed from the harbor, mingling with the still-running roar of their engines, each sound piercing everyone's eardrums.
But no one spoke.
Not a single person dared to breathe loudly.
Everyone held their breath, their eyes fixed on the same spot: the girl tied to the wooden post.
What did she just say?
Don't kill anyone in front of me.
—Come here and untie me.
There was no request, let alone a discussion.
Rather, it was like a perfectly natural command.
It was as if the person standing in front of her was not Master Jia, who was feared by both the underworld and legitimate society in Southeast Asia, but just a large dog that she could control.
The men in black inside the warehouse all had stiff expressions.
Some people doubted they had misheard, and some even subconsciously looked at their companions, trying to confirm from their faces whether it was a hallucination or not.
The air seemed to freeze for a long time.
Zhou Ji's eyelids twitched slightly. He slowly turned his head and met Chai Ye's gaze.
Neither of them spoke.
But in each other's eyes, there was the exact same shock.
They knew better than anyone that Shi Luyu wasn't the first person to dare speak to Master Jia.
But he was definitely the first person to dare to speak to Master Jia like that.
They witnessed together those days of "Xu Jia".
Back then, Jia Ye was still Xu Jia in Shi Luyu's eyes—the one who would get up early every day to buy her breakfast.
He would accompany her to class, pick her up from school, and stay by her side while she received an IV drip when she had a cold.
He would drive halfway around the city in the middle of the night to buy her a late-night snack just because she said she wanted one; he would remember every single word she casually mentioned.
He would unconditionally give in when she acted coquettishly.
At that time, Shi Luyu had no idea who the person in front of her was.
She would hold his arm and gently rock it. Looking up at him, her eyes crinkling, she would call out, "Brother Jiajia."
They would also order him around with a sense of entitlement:
"I want to drink milk tea."
"I want to eat cake."
"Could you help me with this? Hurry up, brother."
And each time, Jia Ye agreed.
Without exception.
Aside from their identities and the deception that was destined from the beginning, he indulged her, spoiled her, and pampered her in almost everything else.
But that was before, when it was just the two of them.
There were no guns, no dead bodies, and no scene as large as this.
There are dozens of people standing here now.
There were his own people, enemies, gun barrels, and blood; all eyes were on Master Jia.
But Shi Luyu dared to give orders directly to Master Jia.
Without the slightest hesitation or doubt.
Zhou Ji slowly withdrew his gaze.
He suddenly realized that over the years, let alone giving orders...
He had never even met anyone who dared to say "come here" to Master Jia in such a calm tone.
Chai also fell silent, and he lowered his head to touch his nose.
Suddenly, I remembered something Sheng Kun had said at the casino.
—My sister-in-law is truly brave.
At the time, he thought the kid was exaggerating, but now it seems...
It's no exaggeration at all, this... is more than just courage!
On the other side, Sheng Kun was completely dumbfounded.
He opened his mouth, looking at Shi Luyu, then at Xu Yuanjia.
Only one thought remained in my mind.
Has my sister-in-law gone mad?
No, no, but... how come she's so bold now!
Sheng Kun had been protecting Shi Luyu all the way during her escape, and he had long since realized how special Jia Ye was to her. Otherwise, given Jia Ye's status, why would he need to personally lead a chase this far?
Not to mention tonight, they'll crash into the warehouse and block the dock.
Zhou Ji and Chai Ye were both present.
Such a display of power is unmatched by many in Southeast Asia.
So he took care of Shi Luyu all the way, and although he kept talking about making money, he always had his own plans in mind.
If you take good care of Jia Ye's people, you won't suffer any losses.
But he never expected that Shi Luyu would dare to do it in front of so many people.
Directly order Jia Ye around!
The more Sheng Kun thought about it, the more panicked he became, and the more panicked he became, the less he could sit still.
He looked around and finally focused on Shiba, who was closest to him.
So, he slowly shuffled his buttocks to the side. With his hands still tied behind his back, he writhed on the ground like a caterpillar.
After moving around for a long time, I finally managed to get to Chai Ye's feet.
He tilted his head back and carefully lowered his voice, "Brother Chai."
Chai glanced down at him and asked, "What are you doing, kid?"
Sheng Kun swallowed again, lowering his voice even further: "Sister-in-law...have you always been this brave?"
Chai ignored him.
Sheng Kun shuffled forward a couple more times, his expression extremely tense. "Do you think... our master won't suddenly get angry and shoot everyone in this room?"
Upon hearing this, Chai suddenly smiled.
That smile sent chills down Sheng Kun's spine.
"I don't know about others," he said slowly.
"Your life is going to end today."
"And another thing, you shameless brat!" Chai glared at him fiercely. "Who's talking to you like 'we'?"
Sheng Kun's face fell immediately. "No, Brother Chai!"
He forced a fawning smile. "The main thing is, I haven't mistreated my sister-in-law along the way."
Chai crossed his arms and looked at him with a half-smile, "You'll have to explain to Master Jia yourself later."
Sheng Kun immediately looked as if the sky had fallen, and was about to continue begging for mercy.
Suddenly, a young man in black stepped forward with a cold expression. He had obviously only recently joined the group and was unaware of Shi Luyu's importance in Master Jia's heart.
Seeing her ordering Jia Ye around in public, his face immediately darkened. "Who the hell do you think you are—"
He hadn't even finished saying his sentence.
"Snapped!"
A resounding slap suddenly rang out.
The man's face was slapped to one side, and he staggered two steps.
Before he could even stand still, Zhou Ji had already stepped in front of him, grabbed the back of his neck with his five fingers, and pressed down sharply.
Bang!
The young man slammed his knees heavily to the ground, nearly hitting his forehead on the concrete.
Zhou Ji looked down at him, his eyes icy cold. "Who are you calling names? Want to die?"
Just two short words.
The entire warehouse fell silent again, and no one dared to utter another word.
Shi Luyu slowly turned her head, glanced at the man in black kneeling on the ground, her gaze calm.
Then, he looked again at Xu Yuanjia, who was standing in the center of the crowd.
Their eyes met, but neither of them spoke first. Only the cold white light from the warehouse overhead lamp flowed slowly between them.
The warehouse was so quiet it was almost stagnant.
All eyes were on the two of them.
Xu Yuanjia remained standing in the same spot. The heavy sniper rifle was still in his hand, its dark muzzle pointing towards the ground. The murderous intent that had just enveloped the entire warehouse seemed to have been abruptly severed by that one sentence.
He stared at Shi Luyu for a long time.
For the first time, a faint hint of surprise appeared in those dark eyes.
It wasn't because she stopped herself from killing.
It was because... she called her name.
Since her identity was exposed, she had never spoken to him in that tone again.
There was no arguing or cursing, nor did they show the hatred they had before parting ways.
She simply said to him calmly, "Come here."
These two words, so light they were almost weightless, struck him more easily than any other sentence.
Xu Yuanjia stood there, suddenly remembering something from a long time ago.
She always loved to curl up on the sofa, hugging a cushion and beckoning to herself, "Brother Jiajia, come here."
Sometimes I just want him to get me a glass of water, and sometimes I just want him to watch a movie with me.
And sometimes, nothing happens at all.
I just wanted to hug him.
Thinking of this, the coldness in Xu Yuanjia's eyes silently dissipated. He didn't even realize that the grip on his gun had loosened.
On the other side, Shi Luyu naturally noticed as well.
She saw him standing there, motionless.
The courage that had just surged in my chest gradually faded away.
She suddenly realized that what she had just said seemed somewhat ridiculous.
They are not the same people they used to be.
Why would she still think... he would listen to her?
Thinking of this, she slowly lowered her eyes.
Her long eyelashes concealed all emotions in her eyes, and her voice lowered slightly: "Never mind."
She pursed her lips slightly, "I don't need you..."
The final word of refusal hadn't even been uttered yet.
"They've arrived." A deep, smiling voice suddenly rang out.
Xu Yuanjia looked at her, and his eyes, which were originally cold and devoid of warmth, slowly curved into a very faint smile.
The man's voice was soft, yet it carried an almost instinctive indulgence:
"Brother's here, sweetie."
