Another man crawled forward, explaining frantically: “Big boss, if I knew those longan fruits were meant to harm someone, I wouldn’t have delivered them. A tall man gave me two hundred yuan to deliver something.”
Jun Hao raised an eyebrow, his voice gentle: “I’m sorry to have troubled you both. My subordinates brought you here without clarifying things, which would be unfair. Landlady, I also want to thank you for taking care of An Ke for so long.”
The landlady bowed as if receiving a royal decree: “Thank you, big boss, for your understanding.”
Cheng Jun took out two pieces of paper, two pens, and an ink pad, placing them in front of the two men: “Sign your names and leave a fingerprint while you’re at it.”
“Why are these blank papers?” Both looked utterly incredulous.
Cheng Jun said impatiently, “Our boss just decided to save you. Where do you expect us to draft a contract so quickly? Besides, do you think we’re going to eat you?”
The two looked at each other, nodded, and signed with a bold stroke, pressing their fingerprints firmly. They could never have imagined anything more terrifying than lifelong imprisonment awaiting them. In a few minutes, they would understand that possessing such a warm, heartfelt smile was the true embodiment of evil.
“Cheng Jun, keep the contract. Since these hands have harmed others, chop them off and feed them to the dogs. Tell Captain Huang not to let them out to harm people again,” Jun Hao rose and walked away with the same elegant steps as before, but paused at the door to add: “Don’t use a sharp knife. A duller one should be more painful.” His tone was as casual as discussing the day’s weather.
Ignoring the wolf-like howls behind him, he continued walking lightly towards his Mercedes. However, he stopped when he saw a figure standing nearby.

The cold wind disheveled An Ke’s hair. She stood motionless, staring at the door in the distance, listening to the cries for help inside, able to imagine the scene within.
