Chapter 1455: Chapter 815: Throwing Out the Bait_2

Brother Shan might be acting irrationally now, but we can’t just go along with whatever he says.

Just let Brother Shan stay quiet here for as long as he likes; after all, I’m curious to see how long he’s going to make a fuss.

After a short pause, Yueya continued where Qin Yuan left off.

"Black Bear, you are really too confused. Why would you listen to Brother Shan? Even though he was your former boss."

"But now, haven’t you acknowledged Yuanqing as your big brother? Even though there’s no contract, your intentions have been clear."

"If you go back on your word now, wouldn’t that just make you seem too unreasonable? You shouldn’t do that, or you will pay a terrible price."

Yueya is simply giving him a fair warning here, after all, what she is saying is the truth.

Qin Yuan believes Yueya makes a lot of sense, and he trusts that Yueya is doing all this to help him win back these subordinates.

He never expected Yueya had this in mind from the start; he had even hurt Yueya.

Making Yueya suffer numerous wounds, Qin Yuan now feels quite guilty thinking about it.

Qin Yuan’s expression became slightly solemn; he took a deep breath and then spoke with utmost seriousness.

"Yueya, I am truly grateful for you speaking on my behalf, you’ve been a great help to me. Since you’ve helped me so much..."

𝒻𝑟ℯℯ𝑤𝑒𝑏𝑛𝘰𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝒸𝑜𝘮

"I should really take some concrete actions to express my gratitude. Mere words are not enough, please, make a demand."

"I’ve already allowed you to make one request just now, so including this one, that’s two. Take your time to think, and whenever you’re ready, let me know."

Just one request, which, to him, really isn’t asking much at all.

So, of course, he can agree to it.

This is what Qin Yuan is cheerfully thinking to himself.

Then he sees a brilliant smile bloom on Yueya’s face.

"Really?"

"Have I ever lied to you?"

"That’s true, thank you then."

"You’re welcome," Qin Yuan simply says this much.

But he doesn’t continue; his gaze still rests on Black Bear.

Black Bear is already feeling immense pressure.

But after glancing at Brother Shan and then at Qin Yuan, he speaks awkwardly.

"Then I’ll just not listen to either of you."

Qin Yuan did not expect Black Bear to say something like that; it really wasn’t the response he had anticipated.

He thought Black Bear would just play along with his words. He didn’t expect him to declare allegiance to neither side.

Perhaps Black Bear doesn’t want to offend either, but does he know that by saying this, he might have managed to offend both at once? What naive thinking.

Qin Yuan just slowly shifted to the side, positioning himself right in front of Black Bear.

He’s now slightly bowed his head, looking down at Black Bear from above.

Black Bear feels an invisible oppressive force bearing down on him, making him shudder uncontrollably.

What in the world is happening?

What does he want to say?

If he doesn’t wish to say anything, why suddenly come over?

This is really too frightening. Can’t we do without such terrifying acts? It’s truly scary.

Black Bear wants to say something.

But when the words reach his lips, he finds his mouth trembling so violently that he dares not speak.

After a while, Qin Yuan couldn’t help grabbing Black Bear and dragging him to the side.

He even continued to lift Black Bear and take him outside.

Black Bear looks down and realizes there’s an abyss behind him.

His face quivers as he speaks.

"What are you trying to do? You can’t possibly be thinking of pushing me down to feed the sharks, can you? You can’t do this. If you really push me down to feed to the sharks..."

"That would be disregarding human life. Don’t you want me to be convinced by force of argument? Why are you threatening me? By threatening me..."

"How can I be truly convinced? Can’t you let me be willingly convinced? Besides, I don’t want to offend any of you."

It was just the bald guy who was pushed over here, but I didn’t expect it to be his turn so soon.

That’s way too scary, how can they pull off such a terrifying act?

Can’t we just talk things out nicely?

Black Bear felt even more afraid now.

But when Qin Yuan heard these words, not a trace of patience could be seen on his face, which slightly darkened.

Even Yueling, who sat nearby, gave a slight gasp. She didn’t expect him to do this.

Yet she felt that it was a good decision.

Right at this moment, Black Bear couldn’t help but shakily continue talking.

"Only if I sign the contract are you my boss, and right now you’re not my boss yet. I just want to be your underling."

"But if I sign the contract with you, doesn’t that further demonstrate my loyalty? Let me down first, let’s talk it out properly, okay?"

"If your hand slips and I fall, what then? It’s an abyss down there. If I fall in, my remains will be gone forever."

Once someone falls, their remains will indeed be gone forever.

Qin Yuan kept shoving Black Snake outwards, clearly out of patience.

His face slightly darkened again.

Seeing this, Black Bear clenched his fists a little and then immediately said.

"I’m listening to you now, you are my big brother now. I’ll do whatever you ask in the future, if you want me to go east—"

"—I’ll absolutely not go west. Though there’s no signed contract, you’ve been my big brother all along, and I’m completely loyal to you."

"Please let me down now. If you don’t, how can I carry out your orders? Do you think I’m right or not?"

When Black Bear finished saying this, he simply didn’t dare to glance at Boss Shan, trembling slightly.

At this stage, how could he dare to glance at anyone else?

He genuinely felt an unprecedented fear; if this continued—

He would probably be thrown to the sharks, no daring to stay silent any longer.

Black Bear was still very afraid.

Upon hearing these words, a satisfied smile appeared on Qin Yuan’s face.

Then, he threw Black Bear onto the deck.

Qin Yuan then slowly uttered.

"It seems like your will to live is quite strong."

In fact, Qin Yuan’s move was merely to intimidate them as a warning, though he got Black Bear here—

Ready to push him into the shark-infested waters, he meant to frighten them.

To show them that dilly-dallying here could lead to the same fate.

Qin Yuan had completed whatever he wanted to do, and his intentions were clear as day.

Yueling knew Qin Yuan’s thoughts, curved her lips slightly, and expressed her agreement with him.

Qin Yuan smiled and then continued slowly.

"Black Bear, seeing how quickly you chose to acknowledge me as your big brother, I won’t be too harsh on you. I’m quite satisfied with you now."

"Later, if you need my help, I will definitely assist you. After all, you’ve made me satisfied, so how could I not help you?"

"If I don’t help you, wouldn’t that make me seem too petty? Don’t you think I’m right?"

This was Qin Yuan’s second move.

It was to convey that once they followed him—

They would reap many benefits and live better lives.

Qin Yuan then glanced at Boss Shan, because before this, Boss Shan was the most stubborn one.

Next, he would see if Boss Shan was willing to submit. He said so much just for Boss Shan to take in.

Though Ling Yu heard these words, he too slightly curled the corner of his lips.

"Didn’t I just acknowledge you as my big brother? Why didn’t you say these things to me? Yet you’re saying them to Black Bear."

"Does that prove you’re biased? You can’t be biased; fairness is essential. It’s only if you treat us equally—"

"—that the relationship among the brothers can be harmonious, and we can work wholeheartedly for you, right?"
