Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Jiang Zhi’s eyes darkened, and she panicked. “When did this happen?”

“Where are you now? Let’s meet and talk.”

She quickly washed up and walked out of the door. She asked Cheng Yi for his location while Cheng Yi was waiting near her house.

“What’s the situation now?”

As soon as she got into the car, Jiang Zhi immediately asked about Lu Mian. Cheng Yi pulled up the surveillance camera at the corner of the street, and it showed Yan Zhang kidnapping Lu Mian in the span of less than five minutes.

“I’ve located him. I’ll take you there now.”

Looking coldly at Yan Zhang in the video, Jiang Zhi wanted to drag him out and beat him up.. She took a deep breath and suppressed her anger. “Do you want to find more people?”

“I’ve sent people there. We just need to go there now.”

Cheng Yi secretly looked at Jiang Zhi’s expression. Seeing the anxiety and worry in her eyes, he clicked his tongue. “Don’t worry. He’s so good that he won’t be at a disadvantage.”

Jiang Zhi frowned. Her heart was in her throat, and she didn’t dare to relax. “Two fists can’t fight four hands. How’s Lu Mian?”

He was in a very good condition!

Cheng Yi secretly cursed in his heart, but he didn’t dare to say it out loud. He could only say vaguely, “Go and take a look yourself. You’ll know.”

In the warehouse.

Lu Mian casually kicked Yan Zhang to the side. His big, well-defined palm was playing with the lighter in boredom.

After an unknown period of time, Lu Mian, who had sharp ears, heard some movement outside.

Through the window, Lu Mian saw Cheng Yi’s car and Jiang Zhi’s hurried back. A deep smile flashed across his eyes, and then he casually tied himself up.

The gangster who was lying on the ground pretending to be dead was dumbfounded.

What, what was going on?!

Lu Mian narrowed his eyes and smiled. His tone was cold. “Don’t say anything you shouldn’t.”

The thug was scared by his threatening smile. He buried his face in the ground and did not dare to look up.

When Jiang Zhi and Cheng Yi rushed in with their men, they found a bunch of people lying on the ground. Yan Zhang was among them and seemed to be unconscious.

What on Earth happened here?

Jiang Zhi looked at the scene in front of her in shock, and then she saw Lu Mian, who was tied up in a corner.

“Lu Mian!”

She rushed over and quickly untied him, holding him anxiously. “Are you okay?”

Lu man shook his head ‘weakly’ and leaned on Jiang Zhi, looking at her with his sapphire blue eyes. “I knew you would come.”

“Jiang Zhi, I’ve been waiting for you.” 𝗳𝘳𝐞e𝙬𝙚𝚋𝗻𝚘𝚟𝗲l.𝑐𝑜m

Cheng Yi, who was watching from the side, felt goosebumps all over his body when he saw Lu Mian pretending to be weak. He cursed Lu Mian for being shameless.

Jiang Zhi looked even more apologetic. It was all because of her that Lu Mian was caught.

However, there was another question that troubled her deeply. Jiang Zhi looked at the injured people on the ground and could not help but ask, “What happened?”

Lu Mian put one hand on her shoulder with a puzzled look on his face.

“I don’t know either. I don’t know why there was an internal conflict between them. They fought each other and ended up like this. It’s probably because they didn’t share the spoils equally.”

Jiang Zhi nodded thoughtfully.

Cheng Yi: “...”

Damn it.

When Yan Zhang woke up, he just happened to hear Lu Mian’s random excuse.

With a mouthful of blood stuck in his throat, Yan Zhang was so angry that his neck turned red. He glared at Lu Mian and cursed.

“You’re shameless! How dare you say such words! You’re obviously the one who beat us up! Hypocrite! I’m going to call the police and sue you for intentionally hurting people!”

The grief and indignation on his face did not seem to be fake. Jiang Zhi looked at Lu Mian suspiciously.

His sapphire blue eyes drooped slightly, and Lu Mian’s expression revealed a hint of grievance.

“Do you think that’s possible?”

“I was beaten to such a state, and my hands were tied by them. How could I beat them?”

“Moreover, if they were really knocked unconscious by me, why didn’t I run? Why would I wait for you to come and save me?”

Lu Mian’s analysis was very reasonable. In addition, the bruise on the corner of his mouth was obviously caused by someone else. Jiang Zhi did not suspect anything and immediately looked at Yan Zhang coldly.

“Yan Zhang, you’re too much! Why should innocent people be caught up in our matter?!”

Yan Zhang was so angry that he almost vomited blood. His eyes were fierce and his voice was trembling. “You... you two are a matching pair of swine...”

Jiang Zhi’s eyes turned cold. She punched Yan Zhang’s face hard and successfully knocked him out again.

“This time, I’ll throw in a lesson for free!”

Cheng Yi: “...”

Wonderful!
