Chapter 182 Encountering Human Traffickers

Lin Ziyi had booked a honeymoon suite. Upon arriving at the hotel, she smiled and said, "Today is all ours."

With that, she leaped into Ye Tian's arms, hanging onto him.

Ye Tian chuckled, "Alright, I'm all yours today. Tell me, Your Majesty, how do you plan to torment me?"

Lin Ziyi giggled, "Okay, little eunuch, come and give this Queen a massage."

"Of course." Ye Tian placed her on the bed and specifically pressed a few acupoints that stimulated endocrine secretion. Within moments, Lin Ziyi felt a warmth spread through her body, and she pulled Ye Tian into an embrace.

She pouted playfully, "You're so wicked, deliberately messing with me."

Ye Tian grinned, "Next, it's Your Majesty's turn to serve this humble servant."

As they were playfully interacting, the doorbell rang. Ye Tian opened the door, and a delivery person pushed in a meal cart, smiling, "Sir, thank you for your patronage. This hotel is offering complimentary meal delivery. Please enjoy." Da Feng Novel Network.

Ye Tian happened to be hungry too. He nodded and gestured for the cart to be brought in. After placing the cart, the server bowed and left.

Lin Ziyi approached the meal cart and found four dishes, one soup, and six delicate pastries.

She smiled, "They even deliver meals. Let me try it first."

She reached out, picked up a plum-blossom-shaped pastry, and took a bite. It tasted exquisite. She couldn't help but praise, "Delicious."

Ye Tian also picked up a pastry. He sniffed it first, finding it quite fragrant, and then ate it.

The two had only eaten some pastries on the train and were already hungry. They then began to eat together.

As he swallowed the soup, Ye Tian found the taste rather strange. He spat out the soup before it could go down and said, "Ziyi, this soup tastes off."

However, Lin Ziyi had already taken a sip. Her eyelids suddenly felt heavy, and she slumped to the ground.

Ye Tian was shocked. He reached out to help her, but felt a slight sway himself, his steps becoming unsteady. He was startled by the potent effect of the medicine. Although he had spat out the soup as soon as it touched his mouth, it had still affected him.

Fortunately, the medicinal effect wasn't overwhelming, and he quickly recovered. Just then, he heard the sound of the room door opening. He immediately lay down on the floor, feigning unconsciousness.

Judging by the footsteps, four people entered. One of them said, "Old Wang's medicine is strong. The person collapsed in seconds."

Another person remarked, "This woman is truly beautiful. Top-tier merchandise. Sold over there, she's worth at least three million."

That person laughed, "Three million is just the starting price. Negotiate well, and five million is possible. Alright, let's take them away first and put them in the warehouse."

"Boss, what about this man?"

"We can't keep anyone in the hotel, so bring him along too. Once we get there, we'll inject him with some medicine and sell him to Southeast Asia. There are many buyers for living people there. Apparently, hearts, livers, and all sorts of other things are very valuable. One person can sell for over a million US dollars."

"Boss, maybe we should just sell people from now on," the subordinate said, his eyes gleaming with avarice upon hearing how profitable it was.

"You know nothing. This kind of business can only be done on the side. If we do it exclusively, we'll attract police attention. Alright, get to work."

Ye Tian felt himself and Lin Ziyi being packed into two large suitcases and then taken out of the hotel and placed into a car.

He pondered in his mind. It was clear this was a heinous criminal organization. Since he had encountered them today, he would eradicate them. As a martial artist, he dared not claim to uphold justice, but when faced with such a situation, he had to intervene!

The car drove for several tens of minutes before stopping. Then, he and Lin Ziyi were carried out of the suitcases. After a while, more people appeared, and a cold, sinister voice said, "Not bad, prime goods. I'll give you bonuses later." The previous individuals repeatedly expressed their thanks.

"Let's put them in the warehouse first. Once this batch is complete, we'll send them all to the 'Paradise'." That sinister voice spoke again.

Another person asked, "Boss, isn't it better to sell this man to Southeast Asia?"

The boss glanced at Ye Tian. "You guys handle it."

The men were overjoyed. The boss was essentially lending Ye Tian to them, and the money from the sale would be theirs.

Just then, Ye Tian stood up. Everyone present was startled and retreated.

"You weren't unconscious?" someone exclaimed.

Ye Tian brushed the dust off his clothes and said calmly, "I was fully conscious the whole time. I was just pretending to be unconscious to see what kind of people you are."

A short, thin middle-aged man stared coldly at Ye Tian and said, "Kid, do you think you're very clever? Once you're here, you'll either become a corpse or an idiot. You choose!"
