Help! The Seductive Villain Chases Me Everyday to Expose My Other Identities!-Chapter 97 - 97 If She Dies, I Won’t Live Either

97 If She Dies, I Won’t Live Either

The taxi stopped on a deserted street.

Shi Ran got out of the car and walked straight into the street.

All was quiet except for the sound of the breeze.

The doors of every house were closed. There was no one in sight and it was dark everywhere.

Only one spot was brightly lit, illuminating a large stretch of road.

That was the destination Shi Ran wanted to go to.

Quiz Internet Café

She pushed open the door and stepped inside.

The Internet café was plain and empty. No one was there and even the air-conditioning was off.

She walked to the front desk where a young man was looking down at a competition video with headphones on.

Shi Ran tapped the table lightly.

The young man looked up sharply. When he saw who it was, he looked surprised.

But he still stood up quickly and bowed. “Hello.”

Shi Ran pulled down her mask. “Hello, is this an Internet café run by Team R?”

“May I help you?” The young man was instantly alert.

“You’re a member of Team R? It’s like this. I want to invest in Team R.” Shi Ran went straight to the point.

That was why she was here.

“What?!” The young man looked shocked. “You… you said you were going to invest in us??”

“Right. I’ve been thinking about trying to invest. I think the esports industry is good.”

The young man was still in shock. It took him a moment to recover. “You’re not joking?”

“No.”

The young man’s eyes lit up, a few shades brighter than the lights in the shop.

He seemed so excited that he couldn’t even speak properly. “I… I’ll… ask the captain first. Wait for me!”

He started to pick up the phone, but before he could raise his hand, he suddenly looked up.

“Do you understand esports? Do you know how much it costs to invest in it?”

“Yes?” Shi Ran raised her eyebrows.

Thinking that it was a misunderstanding, he quickly waved his hand. “It’s not that I don’t think you have money, but I want to tell you that investing in eSports requires a lot of money.”

“And…” He looked down, crestfallen. “It’s likely to be a lost cause.”

“Can you tell me how much is needed?” Shi Ran asked bluntly.

She had mainly come over today to understand the investment amount.

Although she had gathered a lot of information, she knew she could not learn any faster than directly from the professional players.

“At least ten million. And this is only the initial investment. Our team doesn’t have enough people so we still need to recruit.”

“The more powerful professional players nowadays need a pay of at least a million or more.” The young man’s voice became softer and softer.’

Shi Ran tapped her index finger on the table. After a moment’s thought, he nodded. “I understand.”

“What I just said is only the investment amount for a low-level team. A high-level team needs more, but Team R… is only a low-level team now.” The young man lowered his eyes.

“I understand. I’ll come to you next time,” Shi Ran said calmly.

The young man wasn’t surprised.

Previously, many people wanted to take advantage of Team R’s defeat to invest, but every time they heard about the amount, they would be scared away.

Ten million was not a small number in itself.

Saying that she would look for him next time was just an excuse.

He understood.

He raised his big smile. “Have a nice night.”

Shi Ran’s gaze froze.

For a moment, she thought she saw the light in the young man’s eyes dim completely.

She turned to leave.

It was the same road, but this time it felt cold for some reason.

After walking out of the street, Shi Ran took out her phone, intending to call a taxi.

At that moment, the white van parked on the side of the path moved and the door was pulled open.

Then the three men got out quickly.

They all had square white handkerchiefs in their hands. f𝔯𝒆𝚎𝚠𝑒𝚋𝓃૦νℯƖ.co𝘮

There was a puddle of transparent marks on it!

They were extremely fast and had a clear purpose as they rushed towards Shi Ran.

They reached out in an attempt to restrain her.

But she was faster. With a backward step, she dodged the three men.

...

She flexed her wrists, and the corners of her mouth lifted insolently under her mask.

Courting death.

Shi Ran raised her hand and was about to turn around and attack.

In the nick of time, the man in black suddenly appeared and stood in front of Shi Ran.

She stopped moving.

Then she saw the man in front of her launch an attack and rush towards the three burly men opposite him.

His moves were clean and neat, and every strike made the other party unable to defend themselves.

Within a few moves, the three burly men were lying on the ground, wailing.

Shi Ran then looked up.

The man was dressed in a black T-shirt and was tall. His figure looked even thinner under the streetlamp.

He was wearing a cap and mask. His head was down, making it impossible to see what he looked like.

...

It felt familiar.

Shi Ran frowned slightly.

The man stiffened momentarily under her scrutiny.

But soon the man turned to the white van and found the ropes the big men had prepared.

He moved quickly and tied the three big men to the telephone pole.

The man was about to leave after he was done.

“Thank you,” she said, her clear voice amused.

The man froze.

He lowered his hat and left as silently as he had appeared in a hurry.

The man walked around the corner. His tense body relaxed completely. He leaned against the wall and clutched his rapidly beating heart.

The footsteps were chaotic and soon a group of people appeared in front of the man.

The leader was a bald man with a puzzled expression. “What were you doing, Ah Tian?”

“Saving a life,” the man said flatly.

“Of course I know you’re saving people, but do you know who you’re saving?!” The bald man was agitated, but he still tried his best to suppress his voice.

“Shi Ran,” the man whispered, his tone rolling with endless tenderness.

“You still know that she’s Shi Ran?!” The bald man was so angry that he took a deep breath.

“She’s the one President Wen wanted to get rid of. The order was given to us at noon and you refused to take it. But what’s with the sabotage now?”

“Do you know that woman?” The bald man suddenly reacted.

The man pursed his lips and said nothing.

The bald man sighed helplessly. “Do you know that if President Wen finds out about your actions tonight, it’s very likely that all of us will be implicated?”

“Now, hurry up and release those three and tie Shi Ran to the car!”

The man looked up, his eyes cold. His voice was cold as he said, “If you want to touch her, step over my corpse!”

“You!” The bald man looked shocked. “You like her?” 𝑓𝓇𝑒𝑒𝚠e𝘣𝓷𝘰ѵe𝑙.com

“Ah Biao, I know what I’m doing. To me, she’s more important than my life. If she dies one day, I won’t live either.”

“What are you talking about?!” The bald man stood rooted to the ground in shock.

The man chuckled softly. “In our line of work, living is just a struggle. Without her, I’d have been dead a long time ago.”

He glanced up. “So, for the sake of my life, let me know if you have any further orders about her.”

The bald man looked at the man for a long time and could only laugh in the end. “You’ve already said it so seriously, what else can I say?”

“But I’m really curious about what charm this woman has that makes you take her so seriously!”

With that, the bald man stuck his head out from the corner.

Under the streetlight, the woman was slender, her head lowered in thought.

He curled his lip.

What? Ah Tian liked such a weak girl?

The next second, the woman suddenly turned her head and shot her gaze in his direction.
