Chapter 100: Chapter 100

Sun Yulin turned and ordered, "Is there food ready? Treat her well, don’t offend, you must feed her yourself! Let her experience the warmth and hospitality of our mountain people!"

Tu Hengsha just wanted to spit at him. What warmth and hospitality? He was still tying her up and depriving her of her freedom, afraid she would run away! And now it was time for a landslide? Could landslides be scheduled?

After Sun Yulin left, someone brought in the meal and indeed fed her.

She didn’t refuse. Sun Yulin had given her time to think, and she needed to conserve her energy during this time and come up with a plan.

Zhao Ye stood outside, hearing everything clearly. When he saw Sun Yulin emerge, he showed some dissatisfaction, "Why keep this trouble around? Are you really comfortable letting her go? Might as well... In these mountains, no one would know, no one would have a clue..." Zhao Ye made a slicing motion with his hand.

Sun Yulin was very impatient with Zhao Ye and glared at him, "You’re going to do it?"

Zhao Ye hesitated, then showed his cowardice, "I... I..."

"You coward!" Sun Yulin spat in disdain, "And an idiot to boot! All this over a young girl who has scared you to this extent? The real issue is the reporter surnamed Su! We’ve just received solid intel that your precious accountant, Old Yu, has been found by him! The urgent matter is to keep her and use her as leverage against the reporter surnamed Su! Once we deal with him, will a young girl be difficult to handle?"

"Will... Will the one surnamed Su come?" Zhao Ye asked worriedly.

"It doesn’t matter if he comes or not, I’ve already put the word out! There’s a high price on the heads of Su and Old Yu! If he comes, we’ll take care of him here. If he doesn’t, we do it outside! But as long as we have the girl, we’ll always have another chip to control him." A fierce glint crossed Sun Yulin’s eyes, "We’ve been unable to turn back ever since you covered up the mine accident years ago! If you don’t want to end up with nothing and behind bars, then lose your cowardly demeanor!"

Tu Hengsha, locked in the shed, didn’t know the exact time. The final deadline Sun Yulin had given her was tonight, and time was of the essence. She was constantly pondering her escape, even considering during meals if she could overpower the person feeding her. Not to mention whether she could actually do it, but even if she could, she couldn’t just walk out.

She thought hard but felt that escaping from here was too difficult.

And while she was deep in thought, she suddenly sneezed.

She paused, feeling a distant yet familiar fear enveloping her. After several sneezes, she felt a wetness trickling from her nose.

She thought, she needed to come up with a plan fast...

Nothing! In this empty shed! She had to wipe her nose like a child, carelessly smearing it! She couldn’t bear to use a man’s smelly clothes, but beyond that, what was there?

Her gaze fell to the floor, yes, there was... straw! Scattered straw on the ground!

A glimmer of an idea flashed through her mind.

Alone in the shed, with the door locked from the outside, they had just fed her and left, unlikely to come back in so soon.

She didn’t know if her idea would work, but she had to try.

Such is the paradox of life. Here in the mine, the straw could be her last chance for survival or the cause of her death.

She looked around the shed, unable to walk, hands bound, and she moved sideways on the ground, crawling, looking for the right stone.
