Chapter 1347

Upon hearing this, Gu Qiuyi was suddenly at a loss.

She could see that Ye Chen was not joking.

So she didn't know what she should do if Ye Chen really wasn't willing to take her companions away.

She also didn't expect that her group of friends would be so anti-intellectual. Long before Ye Chen revealed his identity, they had already offended Ye Chen to death. Now, no matter how they begged Ye Chen, it was reasonable for Ye Chen not to save them.

Although she desperately wanted to leave this place and reunite with her father in Jin Ling, she couldn't bear to abandon so many friends and escape alone.

For a moment, Gu Qiuyi even thought about just not leaving and staying to live and die with these friends. In this way, even if she faced the worst outcome, she would have a clear conscience.

Otherwise, if she left alone and the seven of them died here, she would never be able to get rid of the guilt deep in her heart for the rest of her life.

Ye Chen didn't expect that this group of anti-intellectual, highly educated talents would now start desperately trying to drag Gu Qiuyi into the water.

They used all kinds of means, using methods of scolding, reprimanding, begging, or playing the victim to repeatedly stimulate Gu Qiuyi's psychological defenses. Their purpose was only two:

Either, let Gu Qiuyi take them away together;

Or, let Gu Qiuyi stay and die with them!

Ye Chen couldn't help but look at Gu Qiuyi. Seeing her expression was extremely conflicted, and even showed signs of being willing to sacrifice herself, he immediately thought to himself that this was bad!

Young people are most easily swayed by so-called loyalty and righteousness, just like some death-row prisoners who take the blame for so-called friends and refuse to betray them even to death. When they die, they feel they are doing it for loyalty, not knowing that the other party only treats them as a scapegoat.

Therefore, Ye Chen didn't give Gu Qiuyi a chance to react, directly opened the door, and said to Faisal outside: "Come over and take Miss Gu out!"

"Yes!"

Faisal, who had just taken the other four people and controlled Hamid's two guards, agreed without hesitation, and then immediately walked to Gu Qiuyi and said coldly: "Miss Gu, please come with me!"

Gu Qiuyi was originally wavering, but when Ye Chen asked Faisal to forcibly take her out, it instantly triggered her consciousness of resistance. She almost immediately blurted out: "I'm not going! I'm not leaving! I want to stay and be with my friends!"

As soon as Gu Qiuyi said this, the expressions of the other seven people instantly relaxed, and some even inadvertently revealed a trace of excitement.

Ye Chen took in the performance of these people, and in his heart, he had completely given up any hope for the humanity and character of this group of people.

At a critical moment, not having a chance to escape themselves, and not wanting their companions to escape, but wanting them to stay and die with them—this is the dirtiest side of human nature.

Therefore, Ye Chen immediately said to Faisal: "Block her mouth and take her out!"

When Gu Qiuyi heard this, her emotions became even more agitated, and she blurted out: "Don't touch me! I'm not leaving!"

After finishing, she looked at Ye Chen and shouted: "Mr. Ye, please tell my father that I cannot fulfill my filial piety to him, and ask him not to blame me! I came to Syria with my friends. If I leave alone, I will never forgive myself for the rest of my life!"

Ye Chen frowned at her and asked back: "Has your brain also been infected by those seven idiots?!"

"I haven't!" Gu Qiuyi said loudly: "I have thought it through carefully! I am willing to bear all the consequences and will never regret it!"

Ye Chen was so angry that his head hurt. He pointed at her and shouted sternly: "Shut up! Before I came, your life or death had nothing to do with me, but since I am here, you must live! Even if you want to die, I won't let you die!"

Gu Qiuyi questioned: "Why! I have the right to choose not to let you take me away!"

Ye Chen pointed at Hamid and asked back: "When they kidnapped you, why didn't you say this to him?"

Gu Qiuyi was suddenly speechless and stammered: "I... I..."

Ye Chen said coldly: "Don't 'I' me. I'm too lazy to talk nonsense with you. Today, you have to go whether you want to or not. If you really want to die here, after you return to China and return to Jin Ling, and I safely hand you over to your father, you can come back. At that time, whether you want to die or live has nothing to do with me."

Gu Qiuyi said subconsciously: "But I don't want to go back!"

Ye Chen snorted coldly: "You don't want to? There are many things you don't want to do. You don't want to go, but I insist on taking you away!"

After finishing, he said to Faisal: "Block her mouth. I don't want to hear her speak now!"

Faisal immediately picked up the hood Gu Qiuyi had been wearing from the ground, twisted it into a cylinder in his palm, and stuffed it directly into Gu Qiuyi's mouth.

Gu Qiuyi was suddenly blocked, and she couldn't say a word. She could only hum desperately while staring at Ye Chen with tear-filled eyes.

Ye Chen didn't look at her and directly waved his hand at Faisal: "Take her out!"

Faisal immediately took Gu Qiuyi to the room outside.

The seven people in the room watched Gu Qiuyi being taken away, and anger and unwillingness reappeared on their faces.

Ye Chen looked at them and said expressionlessly: "No matter how long you seven can live, I hope you remember seven words: 'The righteous path in the world is full of vicissitudes!' Like you narrow-minded, short-sighted cowards, even if you read more books, it has no meaning! Like you garbage, even if you plate yourself with more gold, you can't cover up the stench on your body!"

After finishing, he looked at Hamid and said: "Commander Hamid, please send us away."

Hamid didn't say a word, immediately made a gesture of invitation, and said: "Brother, please!"

Ye Chen nodded, went out of the inner room with Hamid, and then had people lock the iron door again. No matter how the seven people inside wailed, Ye Chen had no pity in his heart.

Subsequently, Hamid also kept his promise, used a walkie-talkie to issue orders to his subordinates, had them unload all the ammunition from one of the armed helicopters, withdraw all the guards in the courtyard above, and then had his most trusted pilot land the helicopter in the courtyard.

After doing all this, Hamid said to Ye Chen: "Brother, the plane is ready. Let's go up now."

Ye Chen nodded and said to Faisal and the others: "You guys continue to stay here."

The few said without hesitation: "As you command!"

Ye Chen pulled Gu Qiuyi, whose hands were tied behind her back, over and said to Hamid: "The three of us go up."

Gu Qiuyi couldn't speak and could only keep crying. Hamid took the initiative to take out his sidearm and throw it on the ground, saying to Ye Chen: "Brother, I'll walk in front. You have a gun in your hand, and my leg is disabled, so you don't have to worry about me escaping."

Ye Chen had a bit more appreciation for Hamid's character and nodded slightly: "Thank you, brother!"
