Li Haidong glanced at the handcuffs, then at Hu Yaoji. Under Hu Yaoji's warning gaze, he bent down slowly and picked up the handcuffs on the ground.
When he stood back up, his movements became slow and deliberate, intending to catch Hu Yaoji off guard by throwing the handcuffs as a weapon.
The plan had formed, but before he could act, the moment he raised his head to hurl the weapon, another pair of handcuffs from Hu Yaoji smashed directly into Li Haidong's head.
The sharp intake of breath was followed by two even shriller screams—Lu Yujing and Jiang Xiaoti were on the verge of hysteria.
"Shut up!" Hu Yaoji barked coldly, pressing the muzzle of the gun to Jiang Xiaoti's temple.
Jiang Xiaoti's eyes widened, her lips trembling as she bit down hard. Her whole body visibly shook.
Hu Yaoji shot another icy glare, and Lu Yujing immediately fell silent, mimicking Jiang Xiaoti, biting her lip and trembling.
