Ryan looked at the scar-faced man with no warmth in his eyes and without mincing words, he said to him, "The woman you captured, I want her."
Short and straight to the point, the scar-faced man thought to himself. 
However, after Ryan finished speaking, the already tense situation got even tenser as both sides tightened the hands on their guns. On seeing this, the scar-faced man wanted to smile to ease the atmosphere but when he accidentally met Ryan's frosty eyes, Dan's demonic smile and Justin's expressionless face, the smile that was about to surface instantly stiffened.
He coughed lightly to hide his embarrassment and took the chance to glance at his subordinates who looked also at him with encouragement, their gazes telling him to snap back at Ryan and prove they weren't pushovers. Of course, those gazes belonged to his men who didn't recognize Ryan and Dan or know of their reputations. The ones who did were already signalling to him with their eyes to quickly compromise.
The scar-faced man quickly took back his gaze and pretended not to have seen all those gazes, anyways he already had an idea on what to do.
He coughed lightly again before he began speaking, "Erm...  before we begin talking about this... Why don't we put away the guns first, since.. ", he paused and gestured to the surroundings.
"… we never know, although this is a abandoned refinery there might still be some residual crude oil left and if there should be an accidental trigger, we might all just die here..."
Ryan stared deeply at the man trying to determine what tricks he had come up with, though he really wasn't afraid of whatever idea he had cooked up. 
However, he also knew that what the man said was true after all, one could never be too careful when it came to stuff like this, not to talk of the fact that he and the others didn't know the place like these people.
He waved his hand after giving the man a warning look and everyone on his side put down their guns. The scar-faced man's subordinates also looked at him after seeing their actions and he nodded at them while saying, "What are you still waiting for! Put down the guns too!"
"Can we now talk?", Dan asked with gloom and impatience in his voice. The scar-faced man's heart skipped a beat on hearing his gloomy tone and he hurriedly answered.
"Yes.. yes...", he said while secretly wiping the cold sweat that had formed on his forehead.
"As you know... It's not really our intention to kidnap that woman. We have employers and when they give orders, we have no choice but to follow them unconditionally..."
"What the hell are you trying to say! Get to the point!", Dan interrupted him mercilessly, disliking how the man was dilly dallying. He was even beginning to doubt that the man was intentionally delaying them.
The man shuddered violently on getting interrupted and when he glanced up to see the suspicion in Dan's eyes, his heart trembled further. However, before could explain himself, he heard Justin speak.
"If I do understand what you are trying to say, you are... pleading for leniency?"
Scar-faced man almost cried out in joy on hearing Justin's words.
Finally! Someone understood what he was getting at!
He seemed not to have noticed the look of disbelief on some of his men's faces after they understood Justin's words and quickly nodded in affirmation to his words for fear that they would think that that wasn't what he meant after all.
"Yes! That is what I do mean. I am indeed pleading for leniency from you. Me and my men are clueless as to the grudge between you and our employer. We were only blindly following orders, therefore I hope that considering that, you can spare our lives."
"Boss!", One of his men was unable to bear it any longer and shouted out to him in exasperation.
"Shut up for me! I will explain to you guys later!", He shouted back at the man and watched him fall back despite the obvious dissatisfaction on his face before turning back to face Ryan and the others.
"I am sorry for that. Please forgive him. He just has no idea about who you are...", He apologised while bowing slightly.
Dan's eyes narrowed slightly on hearing the man's last sentence. He now knew why the scar-faced man had been acting so respectful all along. It was all because he knew who they were from the onset!
The suspicion in his heart also lessened when he thought about the fact that the mercenary and Mafia world were interconnected. Not to mention the fact that after he and Ryan left the Anderson's place back then and went through the Blood Gang's nightmarish training, they had also disguised as mercenaries and carried out missions for quite a while.
In fact, his and Ryan's ruthless and cruel reputations had been formed back in mercenary world and not after they took over the Blood Gang. Therefore, many have always mistaken them as just mercenaries while only a few were in the know that they were the leader and second-in-command of one of the most feared gangs in the world.
He and Ryan had never tried to correct that misconception as they felt that it was safer that way. This was also the reason why even though they have been mingling around in high society together with Justin for so long, none of those curious people had ever doubted that they were more than just rich and handsome friends of Justin even if none of them was able pinpoint their origins.
While Dan thought about this, Ryan who was already impatient on still not seeing Selena replied to the scar-faced man's plea.
"Fine. I agree to your conditions. Now, can you bring me to her or her to me?"
The scar-faced man's shoulders slumped in relief on hearing Ryan's promise and probably for fear that he would go back on his promise, he hurriedly said to Ryan that he would go personally go to bring Selena before turning around.
However... the moment he turned around, he saw someone that he thought should definitely not be appearing here walking towards him along with some people a little distance away from him...
