Chapter 415: Time to Retreat
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: End less Fantasy Translation
Everyone turned around but found nothing. Just as the crowd was scouring the area, a voice that was equal parts chilling and teasing echoed from the center of the second floor.
“I’m right here!”
Rong Qi stood with one foot on the railing, her hand propped up as she looked down at the bewildered faces below her. Both Ye Nanshen and Lu Chengzhou had a flicker of panic cross their eyes when they saw her. Even the most meticulous plans could go awry, and they couldn’t bear to think what they would do if Rong Qi were harmed. Because in their hearts, no matter how important the balance of power in the South Sh.o.r.e was, it paled in comparison to the importance of Rong Qi.
The crowd below looked hesitantly at the figure looming above them. “Who are you? How did you get in here?”
Their people had completely surrounded the outside, not even allowing a fly to enter. They didn’t expect that Rong Qi could brazenly walk in.
Rong Qi’s beautiful face broke into a mysterious smile. She taunted, “Want to know? I’ll tell you right now.”
With that, several white pellets appeared in Rong Qi’s hands. Before anyone could register what was happening, she lobbed them into the crowd below. The moment the pellets touched the ground, they released a cloud of white smoke, hissing and spinning.
Gu Ziye’s eyes narrowed and shouted, “Xu Yi!”
From within the factory, a cadre of armed individuals emerged from the second floor as the smoke cleared. Each person aimed their weapons at the crowd below. Simultaneously, another group stormed in from the outside, encircling the original captors.
Zhuang Ling led his team to disarm them all, instructing them to put their hands on their heads and kneel. The tables had turned in an instant. It was only when they were finally pinned down that the captives seemed to grasp the situation.
The man who seemed to be their leader was forced to kneel before Ye Nanshen. His face twisted in agony as he looked up. “You had an ambush prepared all along, didn’t you? You lured me into a trap?”
Gu Ziye laughed scornfully. “What did you expect? That a motley crew like you could trap us? If we didn’t draw you out, how could we make Ye Shaochen pay the price?”
Gu Ziye gestured to his subordinates to take them away. Whether Ye Shaochen would pay the ransom was not his concern. Ye Nanshen wasn’t concerned about that either. His gaze s.h.i.+fted to Rong Qi who was still on the second floor. She was waving at him, smiling as she descended the stairs. He sighed, a reluctant smile forming on his lips. He had carefully picked today, hoping that she would be in cla.s.s and wouldn’t follow them. Yet, here she was.
Lu Chengzhou kept his eyes down, restraining his urge to look her way. Gu Ziye pulled Lu Chengzhou aside and said, “Let’s go interrogate them. Today is a day to celebrate. We’ve nabbed them all!”
Lu Chengzhou remained unfazed, stealing a glance at Rong Qi as Gu Ziye dragged him away.
“I thought you said you’d wait for me to pick you up. Why did you come?” Ye Nanshen asked.
Rong Qi responded, “I was bored, so I came to see what you were up to. I didn’t expect to walk into something this exhilarating.”
Ye Nanshen frowned, his expression turning serious and said, “This is dangerous. Don’t follow me into situations like this again.”
“Alright,” Rong Qi replied, her lips curving into a casual smile.
But just then, the leader who had been captured earlier struggled at the doorway, screaming, “You think it’s over? Haha, Ye Nanshen, go to h.e.l.l!”
The leader broke free from the bodyguards, pulled out a remote control from his pocket, and pressed the b.u.t.ton. His face was filled with manic glee.
“Bomb! Retreat!”
