Yun Jinyang handed over his suit to the butler, and indeed, he didn’t continue to inquire about Yun Qing’s return.
He knew better than anyone else what kind of temperant his younger siblings had, and he was aware of Yun Qing’s ambition, but it had never been a matter of concern to him.
The position of the Yun Family heir was his not because he was the eldest son but because of his genuine capabilities. Yun Qing’s ambition, if used properly, could also contribute to the Yun Family’s power.
However, should Yun Qing’s ambition hinder the Yun Family’s growth, then he can’t be blad for being ruthless as the elder brother.
Yun Ran had a peaceful sleep that night, completely unaware that her very existence had sparked enmity between siblings of the sa mother within this wealthy family.
Early in the morning, Yun Ran’s phone was ringing incessantly as if her life depended on it, showing no sign of stopping until she answered.
She could only force her eyes open and glanced at the caller ID—oh, it turned out to be ’Golden Thigh Dad’s’ call.
"The captive you caught has provided a very important clue regarding you. You’d better co over imdiately!"
At this, Yun Ran suddenly beca wide awake, her eyes brightened.
"I’m on my way."
Yun Ran donned her work clothes and hurried downstairs where Old Liu was already waiting. Seeing Yun Ran erge, he quickly opened the car door for her.
"To the Police Headquarter."
Old Liu was slightly startled, but his hands did not slow down as he imdiately started the car and headed toward the Police Headquarters, largely silent throughout the journey.
This pleased Yun Ran and was the reason she reluctantly accepted the Yun Family’s decision to have a watchdog observe her.
As long as she did nothing to harm the Yun Family, Old Liu should know what can and cannot be shared.
Upon arrival at the Police Headquarters, soone was already waiting and swiftly guided them past the main entrance toward a location obviously for internal personnel only.
Old Liu was even more astonished but he managed to maintain his composure, not looking around aimlessly. He even stayed in the car, squarely in the monitored area.
Xie Xuzhi’s people had thoroughly investigated Old Liu; otherwise, he wouldn’t have been allowed here.
Before long, a person with a similar aura to Old Liu appeared.
He knocked on the car window, and Old Liu lowered it to see the middle-aged man in front of him, instinctively raising his guard to its peak.
"Scorpion."
Upon hearing this na, Old Liu’s gaze turned vicious. Even though they were at the Police Headquarters, a hint of murderous intent surfaced—this na should no longer exist!
"Who are you!"
"Co with !"
Old Liu hesitated for a mont but still unfastened his seatbelt, opened the door, and followed the middle-aged man.
They quickly arrived at an elevator entrance, where, once inside, Old Liu noticed it went downward instead of up.
After descending to the tenth underground floor, the elevator doors opened to reveal several isolated rooms. For a mont, Old Liu even thought this was a place for detaining felons.
Still, he followed with steadiness and soon the man stopped in front of a room that required fingerprint, palm print, and iris recognition before the door could open.
"Co in."
Old Liu struggled for a mont, but the desire to find out the identity of this person outweighed his apprehension, so he entered the room.
Looking at all the high-tech equipnt inside, which ensured that their conversation was completely confidential, Old Liu’s curiosity deepened.
"Let introduce myself. I am the Director of External Relations at the Hai City Special Administration Bureau. Your instructor, Cobra, used to be my teammate. My code na is Black Bear!"
Old Liu imdiately stood up: "You are Black Bear!"
The initial shock was short-lived, and he quickly cald down. Ever since his squad was wiped out, he had ceased to trust anyone.
"I’ve sustained serious injuries. Acting as a bodyguard or similar is still possible, but I’m not fit for other tasks."
Having researched Old Liu, they were aware of his current stance.
Typically, Old Liu would not be privy to such secrets, but with Director Xie’s authorization, that changed everything.
Black Bear laid a stack of paper docunts in front of Old Liu: "Decide after you’ve finished reading."
Old Liu remained silent for a while before finally opening the folder; as he flipped through it, the color drained from his face.
The docunts listed the details of all twelve mbers of their team—besides his own, there were eleven others, each marked with a black stamp.
After going through all the information, his fists clenched, and the veins on his body stood out aggressively.
"What do you want to do!"
Black Bear retrieved the docunts and handed him a cup of slightly blue liquid: "Drink this."
The substance looked ominous, but Old Liu knew he had no choice and drank it down in one gulp.
The expected agony didn’t happen, yet Old Liu quickly realized that the hatred that had filled him was fading.
Until he gradually couldn’t rember what he had just read.
And yet, he was painfully aware that part of his mory concerning these secrets had been erased.
He had heard of the Special Administration Bureau’s mystique and unimaginable thods; only after experiencing it firsthand did he truly understand how apt the description was.
"From today on, you are a blade by Yun Ran’s side. You must unconditionally obey whatever she asks you to do."
"Anything?"
"Yes, anything."
Elsewhere, Yun Ran followed soone to an interrogation room, where she saw the one-ard gardener hanging, his body festooned with various talismans.
Her mouth truly twitched involuntarily—wasn’t it said that this man had divulged sothing about her? Why not speak directly instead of bringing her here?
She’s still an underage girl; is such a violent scene really appropriate for her?
Apparently, Yun Ran had forgotten that she was the main force in capturing this man, so much so that everyone else had forgotten her age.
Inside the interrogation room were other people, including Daoist Qingmu and Master Jiechen, whom Yun Ran knew well. She greeted everyone with a smile, then found a corner to sit down in.
Others were originally dissatisfied with Director Xie allowing a temporary worker to be there.
But seeing that Yun Ran was ’sensible’, knew to keep to herself without stealing the spotlight, they refrained from reprimanding Yun Ran.
Ginsengfruit sensed the atmosphere was off: [Host, the attitude of these people towards you seems to be defensive, be careful.]
