Chapter 655: Enjoy the Time You Have Left!
A sudden tension filled the air and the man pointed the gun at Xia Ruya again .
Xia Ruya quivered from head to toe and stared at the gun in terror . The black opening of the barrel sent chills down her spine and caused her breathing to quicken . Soon, she began to sob and wheeze while her throat turned dry . She instinctively took a few steps back .
She licked her dry lips and murmured, “I… I only have these…”
The man walked towards her in his combat leather boots, causing squeaky sounds to be heard along the safety passageway . It sounded like death .
Xia Ruya got the goosebumps and stared at the gun that was nearing her . She wanted to scream but could not bring herself to . “I… I still have some money in my bank card . Why don’t… I… I go get it for you from the ATM?”
However, the gun was pressed against her forehead before she could even finish speaking . It was so cold and hard that her blood coagulated . Her lips trembled and she was at a loss for words .
“What tricks are you getting up to!?!” the man questioned sternly .
Xia Ruya instantly sobered up and realized that the man was not just asking for money . He had ambushed her in the Xia Family’s supermarket so as to avoid suspicion and attract less attention .
He looked at her arm, seemingly interested in her accessories and cash . He was enticed by her designer clothing and her expensive jewelry, not her platinum card . Clearly, he was afraid of trouble .
There was only a limited amount of cash that could be withdrawn from the ATM, not to mention the surveillance camera . If she were to get to any tricks, the ATM would be the best place for her to act .
Hence… the man became much more vigilant .
She guessed that the man was a fugitive after seeing how vigilant he was .
She also guessed that he desperately needed a large sum of money .
Xia Ruyae answered, “My name is Xia Ruya!” She then threw her wallet at him and said, “I’m not lying to you . My personal identification card is in my wallet . ”
The man remained silent while still holding his gun up .
Noticing that he was not provoked, Xia Ruya got a grip on her emotions and continued, “You should have heard about me before . There have been lots of news reports about me lately, circulating all around the internet and magazines . You may surf the internet on your mobile phone and look me up . ”
An icy cold expression formed in the man’s eyes and he pulled the trigger with a loud and crisp sound .
Xia Ruya turned pale and continued to shiver uncontrollably . “I don’t mean anything else . I really don’t… I just wanted to tell you that I’ve been abandoned by everyone, and if you’re after money, you looked for the wrong person . ”
She mustered up the courage to finish her words in a hoarse voice that even she could not tolerate .
The man seemed to be thinking about her words . He then grabbed the mobile phone on the ground and fiddled with it quickly .
Xia Ruya heaved a sigh of relief as she saw a glimmer of hope .

Soon, the man threw the mobile phone onto the ground and said with a sullen expression, “Since you don’t have any money, there’s no point in keeping you…”
Xia Ruya’s heart seemed to stop beating all of a sudden . She mustered up the courage and grabbed the gun tightly . “I may not have any money, but I do know where to get some . I can help you… so long as you don’t kill me . ”
The man remained silent and stared at her coldly .
Xia Ruya licked her dry lips and said, “Just check up on Wen Xinya on the internet and you’ll know what I mean . ”
At the instant that she mentioned Wen Xinya’s name, she had a maniacal look in her eyes, making her look extremely vicious and sinister . It was as if she were a venomous, slippery snake .
Wen Xinya, I’m not going to let you off easily or let you have an easy life after how much you’ve harmed me .
Seemingly extremely cash-strapped, the man grabbed the mobile phone and searched Wen Xinya’s name on the internet .
Xia Ruya said with a menacing expression, “Wen Xinya is the heiress of the Wen Corporation and she has just held a lavish coming-of-age ceremony . On the day of her coming-of-age ceremony, her grandfather even gave her a set of dowry which is worth a billion yuan, and she has also inherited ten percent of the Wen Corporation’s shares . Most importantly, she’s the only heir of the Wen Family as well as the only successor . The Wen Family went through painstaking means to reunite with her . ”
The man seemed to be a little enticed by her words . He and his accomplices had escaped from the West region to gather in the city . Yet, they lost contact with the organization and were almost out of firearms and ammunition . Hence, they needed a large sum of money to escape abroad .
Wen Xinya seemed to be a good choice, for she was the only successor of the Wen Family, and the man reckoned that they would definitely pay the ransom out of fear . Once they get the ransom, they’d kill her and escape abroad . Everything would be fine by then .

Most importantly, Xia Ruya and Wen Xinya had a deep feud . Xia Ruya would definitely cooperate with them as much as she could in order to get rid of Wen Xinya .
Noticing that he was enticed, Xia Ruya said sinisterly, “I can help you as long as you don’t kill me . ”
Xia Ruya grimaced with resentment, for she knew that they would definitely kill Wen Xinya after taking the ransom .
Isn’t Wen Xinya very smug? I shall kill her with a borrowed knife .
Isn’t the Wen Family very hypocritical? I’ll let their family’s bloodline cease .
Xia Ruya suddenly realized that it was not too bad of a thing to have encountered the robber .
Noticing the sinister look on her face, the man felt like he had finally found a beneficial solution . “How do you plan to help me?”
Xia Ruya frantically revealed a seamless plan .
Seemingly giving it some consideration, the man agreed in satisfaction . “Sure! If the plan succeeds, I won’t kill you . ”
Xia Ruya beamed with joy and said, “Thank you, I’ll definitely help you . ”

Having had a close shave with death, Xia Ruya turned weak and fell onto the ground, panting heavily . She finally realized that she was drenched in sweat and had turned cold .
Wen Xinya, you’re not facing an innocent and vulnerable person this time .

Wen Xinya, enjoy the rest of your remaining time!
