Agu and another bodyguard moved swiftly, and by the next day, they had called over nearly twenty of their good brothers they t in Arica. Each of them was muscular, with fierce expressions on their faces, making it clear they were not to be trifled with.
Xu Jiahui looked at the n standing in two rows before her, nodded with satisfaction, "I’m sure Agu has already told you why I called you here. Money is not an issue for , it’s the least of my worries, but you must satisfy for the sa." Xu Jiahui sat on the stool Agu had brought over, speaking with an air of superiority like a queen.
"This woman." Xu Jiahui took out a photo of Lin ngyao she had secretly taken from her bag and waved it in front of the crowd, "She is currently staying at the Xu Family’s estate. No matter what thods you use, bring her to , entertain her well, play with her, but don’t kill her, I want her alive, to live in constant pain, screaming and crying like a madwoman at the sight of n. I want her to understand the consequences of competing with for a man. I also want Xu Ke to understand the consequences of rejecting ." Xu Jiahui raised her chin high, speaking with malice in her eyes.
The n were not good characters, clearly pleased with such an opportunity as their mouths nearly reached their ears in smiles.
A bearded man took the photo from Xu Jiahui, looked at the woman in the picture with a lecherous gaze, and was satisfied. He asked in a loud voice, speaking Arican English, "Do you need us to take photos or videos for you?"
Xu Jiahui gave the man a knowing look and said in a charming voice, "Of course, the more the better, the more miserable the better."
"This job is as good as done." The man whistled at Lin ngyao’s photo and made a quick decision.
The group moved quickly, hurriedly having a al under Agu’s arrangent, slept for a while, and then under the cover of night, sneaked into the estate, moving like shadows in the dark, reaching the main building without alerting anyone, just a wall away from Xu Ke.
More than a dozen people surrounded the main building.
Inside, just a wall apart, Xu Ke and Lin ngyao were unaware. Lin ngyao, a tall beauty, now curled up in Xu Ke’s arms like a kitten, holding a ga controller and focusing on playing gas with Xu Ke.
Not far away, Housekeeper Zhao wore a loving and gentle smile, carrying hot milk tea and freshly baked cookies towards them.
Everything seed so harmonious and warm, but all of it was shattered in the next second.
One mont Lin ngyao was engrossed in the ga, the next she was rolled onto the floor by Xu Ke, who then covered her with a sofa, sheltering her in the crevice ford between the sofa and the floor, protecting her without causing her discomfort.
Xu Ke threw the ga controller onto the ground, looking at the dozen n in front of him ard with weapons.
"I’ve finally waited for you. I thought Xu Jiahui would act sooner, but she waited until now, wasting so much of my ti.
With so many weapons pointed at him, Xu Ke showed no panic. On the contrary, he seed more relaxed, which made the leading man involuntarily frown, a fleeting feeling of panic creeping in despite himself.
"Hand over the woman behind you, and I won’t hurt the others, or they will all go down with her," the lead man shouted at Xu Ke, pointing a gun at the woman hidden under the sofa.
Their orders were only to not harm Xu Ke and to take Lin ngyao away, to abuse her and take videos, ensuring the survival of these two people. The fate of others was not part of their consideration, so the boss pointed the gun in Lin ngyao’s direction before aiming it at Housekeeper Zhao standing with Xu Ke.
Housekeeper Zhao, hair already gray, showed no fear at the gun pointing at him, maintaining the gentle smile he had since they entered.
"You better shut your mouth, I hate it when people smile at like that, it just makes want to break them." The big-bearded man said loudly.
"Excuse my rudeness, it’s my duty as a housekeeper." Housekeeper Zhao, undaunted by the threats, even gave a standard salute to the opposing party calmly.
It was infuriating to watch.
"Family Head, do you want to continue playing?" Housekeeper Zhao gave Xu Ke a tolerant smile, asking softly.
"What?" The leader understood Housekeeper Zhao’s words, showing so surprise, but the shock lasted less than three seconds before the solid floor beneath them disappeared, replaced by a massive black hole that swallowed all of them below.
Before the man fell, all he heard was Xu Ke’s derisive and low voice saying, "How presumptuous."
What should have been a battlefield for an intense fight turned quiet in an instant.
"Make sure to collect all the weapons from them," Xu Ke instructed Housekeeper Zhao beside him.
"Rest assured, I will search them thoroughly, ensuring they have no chance to harm others again." Housekeeper Zhao said confidently.
"I’ll leave it to you then, I’ll go check on them later tonight." Xu Ke said this while keeping his eyes on Lin ngyao, who was still lying beneath the sofa, his gaze full of infinite tenderness.
"Yes." Housekeeper Zhao looked where his Family Head was gazing, a teasing gleam in his eyes.
Housekeeper Zhao tactfully withdrew, leaving the space to the couple.
As soon as Housekeeper Zhao turned away, Xu Ke freed Lin ngyao from beneath the sofa, gently pinching her nose, speaking indulgently, "You weren’t scared, were you? Are you okay?"
"Not bad. Who were those people just now? I didn’t even see them from under the sofa. What were they here for? How did you handle them? Where are they now?" Lin ngyao asked curiously, blinking her big eyes as she looked around the empty hall.
The entire living room was calm and tidy, not at all like anything had happened. If not for the shards of glass on the floor, Lin ngyao might have thought everything she just experienced was a dream.
Watching Lin ngyao, who had adapted well and was still holding his arm, asking questions, Xu Ke couldn’t help but smile.
