"President"

Li Yiran had long realized that she was being held by the Ashirmer Organization, and their "President" naturally referred to Arrog, the notorious African warlord.

Li Yiran didn't know why these terrorists were holding so many Chinese citizens hostage, but she sensed a sinister undercurrent. Perhaps the 40 or so people they had captured represented Ashirmer's biggest bargaining chip against the Chinese government!

Arrog was standing in front of a large screen watching the statements made by China's spokesperson. A few people around him appeared to be technical staff, nervously typing away on their computers. It seemed that even these terrorists had become modernized and were now utilizing high-tech equipment.

When Li Yiran and her group arrived in this hall, they immediately filled the seemingly spacious room to capacity.

A rugged man with a beard, Arrog was bare-chested, revealing his tanned muscles and numerous scars.

He stood at the front, casting an ominous gaze across each Chinese face. Anyone meeting his eyes quickly lowered their heads in panic, afraid to hold eye contact. After all, this was a warlord; if one were to anger him unintentionally, it could cost them their lives!

Li Yiran wanted to give Arrog a defiant look but realized that the current situation had little to do with her personally. If there wasn't any necessity, she wouldn't provoke such a dangerous figure. Self-preservation was paramount; otherwise, if subjected to inhumane treatment, she would regret it too late, and one moment of impetuousness could lead to lifelong remorse—an outcome far worse than the cost.

However, Li Yiran was simply too outstanding. Even though her current appearance wasn’t as dazzling as usual, it was still enough to blind the eyes of these terrorists.

The more one fears something happening, the more likely it is to happen; this almost seemed like an eerie law.

Indeed, when Alroe’s searching gaze swept across Li Yiran, he stopped.

"Tsk tsk tsk, lift your head up." Alroe hadn’t clearly seen Li Yiran’s face, but her snow-white neck and translucent earlobes were already enough to attract him.

Li Yiran was feigning ignorance. Even though she had felt the intense gaze of the other person, she did not raise her head. However, her heart started pounding fiercely and rapidly, and she clenched her hands into fists, trying hard to suppress any signs of nervousness.

Avoidance wouldn’t work; Alroe was already walking towards her step by step. The pungent smell from the other person had entered Li Yiran’s nostrils.

"I’ll say it again, lift your head up." Alroe’s voice was dark and menacing, as if he hadn't considered whether Li Yiran could understand his heavily accented English at all.

Li Yiran raised her head. Her bright eyes caused Alroe's heart to contract instantly before he started laughing maniacally.

"Hahaha, I never would have thought, never in my wildest dreams, that randomly capturing a team of Chinese people could actually lead me to you!" Alroe laughed so hard tears were streaming down his face. His heavily accented breath sprayed onto Li Yiran’s face, making her feel like she wanted to vomit.

Arogao stretched out his fan-like large hand and pinched Li Yiran's plump chin, smiling as he said: "Do you know how famous you are in Africa Whenever I watch your TV shows, I've fantasized countless times about pinning you down beneath me. Just seeing your face stirs up endless desire within me."

Li Yiran forcefully turned her head to the side with a look of disgust on her face.

"Do you know what will happen to you once I get my hands on you Hahaha!" Arogao started laughing madly again!

Arogao was laughing, as were all his armed subordinates. Their eyes roamed inappropriately over each female hostage without any restraint; some even had saliva dripping from their mouths. They lived long-term in the desert and rarely saw women—let alone attractive ones. To them, these girls represented a sudden downpour after a drought. Anything could satisfy their desires at this point. It was easy to imagine what kind of arousal these Chinese girls were causing!

"I want you! I want you!" Arogao suddenly roared with an ugly expression, shaking Li Yiran's shoulders violently as if he had gone mad.

The others looked at Li Yiran with concern but did not step forward to help. Even the assistant director who usually fawned over her didn't come close; there was no intention of being a hero in this situation.

Though nobody stepped forward, Li Yiran herself spoke up:

"I'd like to know why you're kidnapping us." Li Yiran stared fearlessly into Arogao's eyes with a calm voice and clear gaze.

Hearing this, Arogao stopped shaking her. He once again used his fingers to pinch Li Yiran’s chin: "Beauty, out of respect for your status, I will answer your question."

Alogo shouted at the technicians around him, "My dear brother has died, killed by a Chinese person. I demand that the Chinese government hand over this person's life in exchange for your forty-five lives."

Alogo’s dear brother is dead

This was not an open message; therefore, when those present learned about it, each one looked astonished. Li Yiran also knew that this fellow named Alogming wasn't a good person either—no matter how many times he died, it wouldn’t be enough. Who had the power to kill him

When mentioning this matter, Alogo snarled fiercely, "If the Chinese government cannot hand him over to me within three days, then all of you forty-five people will have to die along with my brother!"

"Why should we be exchanged for him with our forty-five lives On what basis It was he who killed your brother and not us. We are innocent! You should go after him instead of killing us!" A male employee from the railway engineering project department protested angrily, in a hysterical voice.

When Li Yiran heard this sentence, her coldness deepened; she looked at this male employee with disdain—people who only think about their own safety and push their compatriots to the front during times of crisis are not worthy descendants of the Yanhuang race.

"On what basis" Alogo sneered. "It’s on this!"

After saying that, Alogo pulled a gun from one of his aides' waist and fired directly at the ground in front of the man; flying sparks burned his leg and scared him to death!

The sudden gunshot caused all the hostages to panic, with girls screaming instinctively! Only Li Yiran had no reaction whatsoever, as if this gunfire had nothing to do with her. bare-faced fierce competition.Clearly, with these第三代heirs collectively selling their Jirong shares, the上官family is now at a critical juncture."What did your father say" Wang Zheng found his cheap sen...
