Mu Xiaoxi did not answer, but her tightly clenched lips revealed her inner thoughts.

Reality isn't a TV drama, and Liu Kun doesn't seem like someone who keeps his word. Regardless of whether he can escape the police blockade, at least two bullets in this gun should be reserved for Mu Xiaoxi and Shi Hengyu.

"It seems you understand."

Liu Kun chuckled again, his face, which looked somewhat swollen from the punches, still managed to reveal a sinister expression.

“You know I will never let you go, but you are waiting for a chance to escape. And I know what you are waiting for, so I will not give you that chance.”

Mu Xiaoxi frowned, feeling that Liu Kun was talking too much. Did he not have any friends to talk to?

Did you bring your phone?

Liu Kun suddenly asked Shi Hengyu a question, while simultaneously reaching into Shi Hengyu's pocket.

Liu Kun's actions caused Shi Hengyu, who was covered in sweat, to shudder. Liu Kun also witnessed this scene.

He pulled his phone out of Shi Hengyu's pants, held it in his hand, and smiled disdainfully: "I've already said, I don't like your type. If you can get Long Haochen here now, I might consider letting you go."

Liu Kun wanted to channel his anger into motivation and spend a good night with Long Haochen.

Of course, this is impossible.

While keeping an eye on Mu Xiaoxi's movements, Liu Kun typed Lin Yaodong's phone number into his phone. He didn't care whether the area was being monitored by the police; he needed Lin Yaodong's help.

Otherwise, even if he escapes tonight, he won't be able to escape China.

"Hey, Uncle Dong."

"You're calling me at this time, are you trying to get me to go to jail with you?"

"No, I'm calling your virtual overseas number."

Hearing the unfriendly tone on the other end of the phone, Liu Kun didn't feel disheartened; instead, he felt somewhat pleased. After all, if Lin Yaodong really wanted to distance himself, he could simply hang up.

"Uncle Dong, you really have to help me."

"Sigh, you figure out a way to get out of there first, I'll take care of the rest."

After saying that, Lin Yaodong hung up the phone.

Liu Kun, on the other hand, looked deeply moved.

Then, he glared fiercely at Shi Hengyu: "I knew long ago that you and Mu Liuyun, you pretty boys, were definitely not good people. Long Haochen must have been deceived by you too."

"Hey, I suddenly thought of a good idea."

He looked around to make sure no police were near, then he started swiping Shi Hengyu's phone again.

After skating for a while, Liu Kun suddenly showed an impatient expression.

"Is Mu Liuyun not in your green bubble?"

"No, we don't use that kind of communication."

Shi Hengyu was telling a lie with a straight face, which made Liu Kun frown. He then used the pistol in his hand to hit Shi Hengyu hard on the back of the head.

"Give me a proper answer, or I'll send you two away first."

Upon hearing Liu Kun's words, Shi Hengyu closed his eyes, gritted his teeth, and said, "The Lin Jianglu in there is Mu Liuyun."

"Oh? Lin Jianglu, why does that name sound so familiar?"

Liu Kun narrowed his eyes slightly, as if he was thinking about something.

Mu Liuyun, who was still crouching in the bushes, froze on the spot.

"Lin Jianglu, it's me?"

The appearance of this name brought Mu Liuyun back to more than a decade ago.

Mu Liuyun, who was out grocery shopping with Mu Xiaoxi, happened to see a little boy sitting on a bench by the roadside with a face that seemed to say "I want to die".

As a mature adult, Mu Liuyun naturally went up to him and started a conversation, wanting to ask him what difficulties he had encountered.

As soon as the little boy saw him, he shouted, "Sister Jiang Lu!"

Mu Liuyun, who hadn't thought much about it at the time, suddenly understood many things when she heard the surname Lin.

He thought he was mature, but he ended up being used as a meal replacement by such a small boy, and he still is to this day.

Mu Liuyun felt both helpless and amused. Lin Yurou, Lin Xuelan, Lin Shilan, Lin Hongmei, Lin Jianglu, Lin Fangyi—had he stirred up trouble in the Lin family's lair? Why do they all look exactly like each other?

If Mu Liuyun had initially thought it was just a coincidence when she heard Mu Xiaoxi mention the name Lin Fangyi, she might have thought it was just a coincidence.

Now that he heard Lin Jianglu's name from Shi Hengyu, his anxiety completely died.

"Isn't this Lin Hongmei's younger sister from the Lin family? Do you know her?"

Shi Hengyu did not answer, and Liu Kun did not ask any further questions. Instead, he took a few photos of Shi Hengyu and Mu Xiaoxi and sent them to Mu Liuyun, along with a voice message.

"If you want them to live, come see me near the abandoned docks."

"Remember to stay away from the police."

Mu Liuyun's phone was already on silent. To prevent the light from showing, he covered the phone with his clothes and replied with an "okay".

After receiving Mu Liuyun's reply, Liu Kun smugly stuffed his phone back into Shi Hengyu's pocket: "Do you think Mu Liuyun will come over?"

Shi Hengyu and Mu Xiaoxi exchanged a glance, seeing the regret in each other's eyes. They were both certain that, regardless of safety, Mu Liuyun would arrive as soon as possible.

Noticing the looks in Shi Hengyu and Mu Xiaoxi's eyes, Liu Kun's smile grew even wider: "What I wanted to see was this look of regret on your faces!"

"You ruined me and the Liu family for Mu Liuyun, so I will ruin Mu Liuyun for you too."

"When he gets here, should I kill him directly, or should I kill you all in front of him and then kill him?"

"Oh, right!"

Liu Kun suddenly patted Shi Hengyu on the head with his gun: "You two are good brothers, right? Then let's have you put on a love scene in front of his sister! That will definitely be interesting."

"don't want!"

Upon hearing Liu Kun's words, Mu Xiaoxi shouted loudly, then looked as if she would fight Liu Kun to the death, even if Shi Hengyu died.

She could sacrifice herself for Shi Hengyu's safety for a while. But she would never allow anyone to threaten Mu Liuyun's safety.

Seeing Mu Xiaoxi's ruthless gaze, Liu Kun unconsciously took two steps back, shaking the gun in his hand: "Look carefully, I have a gun, do you understand what a gun is!"

Mu Xiaoxi didn't stop moving. She slowly approached Liu Kun, confident that she could pin him to the ground in the time it took for him to fire a shot.

"Xiaoxi, let's get started."

Shi Hengyu nodded resignedly. He had no one to blame but himself for being too careless.

"You, all of you!"

Liu Kun, who had just been full of confidence, suddenly became flustered: "I'm going to shoot! I'm really going to shoot!"

Seeing Mu Xiaoxi getting closer, Liu Kun steeled himself and prepared to pull the trigger: "Then let's die together!"

"Little Creek, wait a minute."

Mu Liuyun, who was hiding in the bushes, slowly stood up and walked awkwardly to the front of the group.

He also wanted to make a cool entrance, but he was afraid that making a big move would startle Liu Kun.

"Brother, brother, you're here!"

"Xiaoyun, hurry up and run! He has a gun!"
