Chapter 148: Chapter 148: Touch Me, and There Will Be a Price to Pay

"You can rest assured about that, she... isn’t my woman yet. So if you like her, feel free to take her."

Rong Shaoze slightly tilted his eyes and asked with a smile, "So generous?"

"I’ve just noticed you’ve been quite hot-tempered lately, so I found you a fire extinguisher. If you’re not interested, I’ll keep her for myself."

As he spoke, he leaned in to kiss Annie’s lips. Annie placed a finger on his lips, shaking her head with a smile, signaling no.

Tao Hua pulled down her hand and teased, "What, have you really fallen for him, planning to stay chaste for his sake?"

"Not at all," Annie still shook her head with a smile, she threw a flirtatious glance at him, her soft and boneless hand caressing his chest, her lips approaching his, breathing gently before she lightly spoke.

"I just want to tell you..."

Her seductive eyes turned lightly, utterly tempting and provocative, her red lips slightly parted, capturing Tao Hua’s full attention.

An ice-cold compact palm-sized thunderstorm was suddenly pressed against his chest, and Annie said with a smile as she continued, "Touching me comes with a price."

Tao Hua glanced at the gun against his chest, his expression unchanged, still playfully curling the corners of his mouth.

"Stand up and raise your hands," Annie stood up, her face devoid of any smile, cold as ice.

The gun pressed tightly against Tao Hua’s chest, her hand steady, without a trace of trembling.

This woman was no simple character...

Tao Hua raised his hands and obediently stood up, glancing at Shaoze who was still drinking, "I say, your brother is being held at gunpoint, shouldn’t you be diving in heroically and saving me from her gun?"

Rong Shaoze only gave him a look as if watching an entertaining show, "You handle your own issues. I’m not so noble as to sacrifice myself to save others, do you really think that’s something I would do?"

Tao Hua’s face fell in disappointment, "I really did pick the wrong friends."

"Both of you, shut up!" Annie frowned slightly, afraid they’d pull some trick.

She lifted her skirt with one hand, revealing her creamy thigh, where a small device was strapped. She took it out, opened the lid, and inside was a clean piece of glass.

"Press the fingerprint of your right index finger on here, quick!"

Tao Hua raised an eyebrow slightly, "A few days ago, my house was burgled, someone stole a medicine box of mine, did you do it?"

Annie gave a cold smile, openly admitting, "Yes, I did it, so now I need your fingerprint to open the box."

Tao Hua sighed, "That was just a failed product, stealing it won’t do you any good."

"You don’t need to worry about that, just press your fingerprint on here. If you don’t, I’ll kill you and chop off your finger!"

"OK, don’t get excited, I’ll press it," Tao Hua said nonchalantly as he extended his index finger, pressing his fingerprint on the glass, and then raised his hands again.

"Annie, I did what you asked, shouldn’t you take the gun away now?" he asked with a smile.

She closed the lid and reattached the device to her thigh, holding the gun with both hands, she commanded, "Come outside with me, I’ll let you go soon enough."

The man rolled his eyes in resignation and began to walk forward.

He was walking a bit slowly; as he neared Shaoze, Annie, fearing they might play a trick, hurried forward, grabbed his arm, and pressed the gun against his forehead, side-stepping as she faced Shaoze.
