Chapter 440: Won’t Be Able to Leave Hengyuan City

The woman with white hair continued with a smile: “I know that we’re using a method that you may dislike. However, as long as Dr. F.S cooperates with us, I will guarantee that you will receive a substantial payment.”
“I refuse,” Jian Yiling replied.
The old woman continued to speak: “Well, if you’re alone in this world, then there would be nothing that we could do if you refused. However, as far as I know, Dr. F.S has quite a large family.”
The old woman had sent someone to follow Jian Yiling for a long period of time. As a result, she had quite a thorough understanding of all the members of the Jian family.
From just the tournament, she knew that Jian Yiling was quite close with at least two of the brothers from the Jian family.
As the old woman said this, she switched the screen.
There was a picture of Jian Yiling’s family on the screen. In addition to that, there was information regarding their daily activities, where they studied and worked and even places that they liked to go.
The old woman was confident that Jian Yiling would be more cooperative after seeing this information.
Then, the screen switched to something else again.
This time, there were a bunch of chemical formulas and words on the screen.
“I hope Dr. F.S will help me complete this project. As long as you do that, not only will your family be safe, but I will also pay you a good amount of money.”
Jian Yiling swept her eyes across the screen.
Then, it quickly became clear to her that this was a dangerous project. This project should not be continued.
The project wasn’t creating a cure for a disease. If completed, this was a project that would bring harm to people.
“I refuse,” Jian Yiling repeated. Her answer did not change.
No matter whether the other party was threatening or enticing her, such a project would not be accepted by Jian Yiling.
“Dr. F.S, don’t be so hasty to answer me. Do you really not care about your brothers’ lives? Do you really think you can protect your family? You should understand that if we dare to take action against you, it means that we don’t care about your family’s power or influence.”
From the time that they were able to obtain information about Jian Yiling from the Huiling Medical Research Institution, Jian Yiling knew that the other party had strength and influence.
“I will kill myself first,” Jian Yiling said.
“What do you mean by that? If you die, I won’t spare any of your brothers.”
“Then we will be brother and sister in another life,” Jian Yiling replied expressionlessly.
The voice was still the same soft voice as before. However, that soft voice did not even fear death.
“Do you want to do this the easy way or the hard way? Do you really think that I don’t dare to do anything to you?” The old woman growled. Her voice was cold as she ordered her female subordinates who were seated next to Jian Yiling: “Slap her twice. Make her realize what she’s up against.”
The female subordinate raised her hand and slapped Jian Yiling in the face.
The female subordinate had been professionally trained. As a result, she had a lot of force in the slaps.
After the two slaps, two bright red marks appeared on Jian Yiling’s fair and delicate cheeks in just a few seconds.
Her face, which was already rather small, was now almost entirely covered with bright red palm marks.
“You won’t be able to leave Hengyuan City.”
“Even at this point, you’re still acting tough?”
The old woman did not know that Jian Yiling was deliberately provoking her. She was trying to prolong their video call.
