The atmosphere turned silent. As it was the top floor of the mall and only few people coming to the restaurants entered the floor. No one was around, or it would be chaotic.

Jiang Yuyan looked calm and composed but inside she was scared for Lu Lijun as it was the sharp knife that rested at his throat and even a small push could get that knife to cut his throat.

San Zemin knew it was dangerous for Lu Lijun so he too didn't act recklessly and stood up while pointing his gun towards the three men.

"You can take me hostage as it won't do anything good if you take the little boy," Jiang Yuyan offered the man as she stood in front of them."

"Step back," the man holding Lu Lijun warned her, ignoring her offer.

Jiang Yuyan took a step back showing she listened to him and continued in a calm voice, "I have money and you can get as much as you want. Also, if you listen to me, I will save you from the police too."

"Don't bluff and ask the police to go away from here or we will kill the boy," the man said.

Jiang Yuyan pulled out the black card from her jeans pocket which she forgot to put inside her bag after shopping and showed it to the men, "I think you guys know what this is."

The men looked at the card and then at each other. The woman had a black card that means she was someone really rich and she can do what she offered to them. Smelling the money, the intentions of those robbers turned evil.

"Seems like this boy is your family member so we can get money from you if you want to save him."

"If you let him go, I promise to give you whatever you want but if there is a single scratch on him, I will break every bone in your body," Jiang Yuyan said coldly and they could sense she was not joking.

She looked at Lu Lijun to assure everything would be fine but he was signalling her to not replace him which she ignored.

Seeing those men shook for a moment with her words, she said again, "Let the boy go and take me a hostage. I promise I won't say anything."

"Really?"

"Yes." As Jiang Yuyan said it, Lu Lijun shouted, "No."

Just because Jiang Yuyan ignored his signals, Lu Lijun had no other option but to say no loudly. He didn't want her to put herself in danger for his sake. Also, he could never see her in any kind of danger.

As Lu Lijun shouted, the man held him tight and in the process he pierced the knife a little in Lu Lijun's skin which showed a tiny thin red line as it cut his skin.

Seeing it, Jiang Yuyan felt like killing the man at the very moment, but she knew it was not the time to show her anger.

"Stay quiet, Lu Lijun." Jiang Yuyan instructed him and Lu Lijun's face turned angry but he did what she wanted to.

"You can do whatever you can with me as that kid is of no use for you. You can get me as well as my money. I will make sure after that you guys won't ever ask for money or won't ever do anything like this to earn money," Jiang Yuyan offered again.

One of the three men whose l.u.s.ty sight was observing Jiang Yuyan, spoke, "Lets get her hostage. We can take her with us to get her money… as well as the pretty woman too." Another man holding the gun agreed too.

"You want to be the hostage, huh? First let my friend take you as a hostage and then I will let go of the boy," the man offered and Jiang Yuyan nodded.

Jiang Yuyan stepped towards one man holding a gun and he immediately pulled her towards him as he put his gun on her temple while the other one let go of Lu Lijun.

The man holding a knife laughed, "You yourself came to us so don't blame us later." His sight observed Jiang Yuyan from head to toe.

"Let the boy go away first."

Jiang Yuyan spoke as she was worried about Lu Lijun's safety though she was disgusted with how the man was holding her with his one hand surrounding her shoulders to hold her at a place and other hand busy holding a gun on her temple.

The man let go of Lu Lijun and San Zemin pulled him to make him stand behind him.

"Don't move," San Zemin instructed Lu Lijun as he stood being his shield.

Lu Lijun didn't want to just stay there and do nothing. His eyes were stuck on Jiang Yuyan, whom the man was holding closer. Inside he was angry that he couldn't do anything because being a kid had its limitations and his reckless action might worsen the situation. He knew at this moment he should be quiet if he wanted Jiang Yuyan to be safe.

"We are taking her with us, so no one dare to follow us or you will see the hole in her head," the man holding Jiang Yuyan warned.

Jiang Yuyan looked at San Zemin as she signalled him with something with her eyes. San Zemin understood she was up to something, but what exactly he didn't know. He signalled her as if he was saying he would take care of the other man with the gun and she had to take care of the one holding her.

The man with the knife was a secondary priority as at that moment guns seemed dangerous. San Zemin signalled two other policemen to take care of the man with the knife.

"Ahh..." Jiang Yuyan screams painfully, which shocked everyone but San Zemin got what she wanted to do.

The man holding her felt shocked as his gun wavered from her temple and the other two looked at her to know what their friend did to her. Just then San Zemin shot the other man with the gun in his hand, which made it fall down while Jiang Yuyan held the man's hand holding her hostage and flipped him over on the ground.
