20: Chapter 20 The Four Great Families of Jiangnan
Right, you didn't think wrong; that media company's movie is just like a police-and-thief film on CCTV-6.
At this moment, the curvaceous Zhang Qingcheng was tied up with hemp rope in a bizarre, immovable knot. She could only lie on the ground, struggling incessantly, emitting whimpering sounds from her mouth, her beautiful eyes filled with both murderous intent and shame.
She had never suffered such humiliation; it was simply an utter disgrace!!!
At the same time.
After being rescued by Liu Lin, Zhang Qingcheng jumped a few steps to reach her sister. Seeing her sister's shameful posture, her mind involuntarily recalled the adult films a male high school classmate had secretly slipped to her.
That's right!
It was just like that scene from "Calabash Brothers" where the grandfather was hung up.
At this moment, Zhang Qingcheng realized that she and her sister were simply no match for this group of people.
This time, they had to admit defeat!
"We lost this time. Let's take the long view; we'll settle the score next time we meet."
Having said that, Zhang Qingcheng prepared to untie her sister and leave this place.
But how could Li Mumu let them off so easily? The next moment, he struck Zhang Qingcheng on the neck with a stick, saying with a sleazy expression: "Do you think this is your home? Coming and going as you please? Stay put for me, or I'll serve you with the other stinky sock!"
"What do you want to do?"
Zhang Qingcheng's expression changed drastically, her voice full of fear.
"Want!"
Li Mumu made a "eat shit" expression and threatened: "Hand over the points obediently, and I'll let you go. Otherwise, don't blame me for being ruthless to such delicate flowers!"
Woo woo...
Beside her, Zhang Qingguo heard Li Mumu's words and started getting agitated again, whimpering for a long time as if she wanted to say something.
Seeing this, Li Mumu pulled the stinky sock out of Zhang Qingcheng's mouth, wanting to hear what she intended to say.
"Li Mumu, if you want me to hand over the points, you might as well kill me! Just kill me!"
Zhang Qingguo's beautiful eyes were filled with resentment, and her words were full of hostility, showing an attitude of "no money, but you can take my life."
This tactic might be effective against ordinary people, but for Li Mumu, who had experienced four years in the City of Sin, he was immune to it.
Li Mumu sneered, crouched down halfway, and said in a voice only the Zhang sisters could hear: "I won't kill you; that would force me to run around with a wanted warrant on my back."
"I'll only strip you sisters naked, hang you up in this cave, and broadcast the location on the public channel, letting interested professionals come to watch. Maybe business will be so good I can even charge for tickets."
As soon as he finished speaking.
"Wah~~" the younger sister, Zhang Qingcheng, started crying in fear.
The older sister, Zhang Qingguo, was so scared that she stammered, "You... you dare? If... if you dare to do this, the Zhang family won't let you go."
"Hmm, indeed, I can't afford to offend the Zhang family, one of the Four Great Families of Jiangnan. But you heard Wang Baobao's attitude toward me just now. If I marry into the Wang family for protection, there shouldn't be any problem," Li Mumu laughed.
He smiled brightly and harmlessly, and it was precisely this kind of smile that could completely shatter the Zhang sisters' psychological defenses.
Li Mumu wasn't stupid; it was just that after experiencing the City of Sin, he preferred to play dumb.
Through the chat before the PK, he had roughly guessed the identities of the Zhang sisters and Wang Baobao; they were from the Wang and Zhang families among the Four Great Families of Jiangnan: Wang, Li, Zhang, and Liu.
Because of this, it made sense why Sister Baoer was so generous, and it also explained why the Zhang sisters had known Sister Baoer since childhood.
"You... you... fine, fine, we'll hand them over. We'll hand over the points."
Zhang Qingguo was completely controlled by Li Mumu, and with extreme reluctance, she tossed the points tag to Li Mumu.
Subsequently, the two points tags collided, bringing the points of Li Mumu's team to 5099.
While breaking the 5,000 mark, they reached the first place on the leaderboard!
They had over 1,800 more points than the second place!
666. 666. 666.
At this moment.
The four members of the team were incredibly excited—some for the honor, some for the victory—while Li Mumu was excited for the five million.
No choice; he was afraid of being poor. Every point counted, and besides, being a professional really burned money like hell.
"Xiao Mumu, you're truly amazing. What on earth did you say to this woman to scare her into obediently handing over the points tag?" Wang Baobao was overjoyed. Compared to gaining points, she preferred seeing Zhang Qingguo suffer a setback.
After all, the two women had been rivals since childhood.
Wang Baobao's boyish personality was quite popular among the younger generation of the Four Great Families.
Zhang Qingguo was charming and feminine, with countless simps in the Four Great Families.
It could be said that usually, the two women were evenly matched, but this time, she, Wang Baobao, had won.
"If there's nothing else, we're leaving."
Zhang Qingguo, who had been untied by her sister, looked very disheveled, her eyes full of disappointment. After glancing at Li Mumu and Wang Baobao, she prepared to leave in silence.
But just at this moment.
"Wait!" Li Mumu spoke up to stop them from leaving.
Zhang Qingguo's beautiful eyes narrowed slightly, and she turned back, saying: "Li Mumu, the points have already been given to you. What else do you want?!"
Li Mumu touched his earlobe and smiled: "Zhang Qingguo, you've misunderstood. I called you back because I wanted to ask if you're interested in teaming up?"
"Teaming up?" Zhang Qingguo frowned slightly and asked in confusion: "What do you mean?"
Li Mumu continued: "I'm afraid if you leave like this, your results for this dungeon assessment will be very ugly. You can't deny that, right?"
Zhang Qingguo nodded: "That's true."
"Then why not have the two teams join forces? We have a healer, you have strong damage output; leisurely grinding monsters is better than risking PKs with others."
The reason Li Mumu invited Zhang Qingguo's team was mainly because he was afraid of encountering Boss-level monsters again. If he couldn't use his beast form at that time, the team would basically be GG.
And since Zhang Qingguo's team had lost half their points, trying to get back into the top three by robbing other teams was an almost impossible task. Therefore, joining forces was definitely a win-win situation.
Zhang Qingguo naturally understood this point. She looked at her sister, and seeing her sister nod, she turned and said: "We can team up, but there is one condition."
"Go ahead," Li Mumu said generously.
"Having lost to you, we are destined not to take first place. So after teaming up, I hope you will try your best to help us sprint into the top three. In return, we will definitely do our utmost to help you win the championship!"
Zhang Qingguo stated the conditions for teaming up. Li Mumu found them reasonable, but since he wasn't the only one on the team, he asked his teammates: "What do you think?"
The three understood Li Mumu's intention. The battle with the Boss just now was too dangerous; a moment of carelessness and they could all have died here. Therefore, compared to taking first place in the dungeon assessment, the team's safety was more important.
"Agreed!"
Li Mumu nodded: "We have no problem on our end."
Zhang Qingguo felt a surge of joy. She had thought this dungeon assessment was over, but unexpectedly, there was a turn for the better, and she had latched onto Li Mumu's thigh.
Zhang Qingguo took the initiative to reach out to show goodwill to Li Mumu.
"Then let's start!"
Li Mumu grinned, took a lot of Blood Grass and Spirit Water from his system backpack, and handed them to Zhang Qingguo's team.
"No rush, eat and drink your fill, then let's create glory again!"
