Chapter 413 Lu Qinglin has gone missing

At Lei Bao's signal, two of his men immediately stepped forward and reached out to force Nan Wan to kneel down and kowtow.

Yang Yi moved swiftly, blocking Nan Wan's path, and kicked one of them away.

At this tense moment, Lu Qinglin suddenly became enraged.

With a flick of his wrist, an extremely thin steel wire slipped out of his sleeve and wrapped around his fingers.

His figure moved so fast that it left only a blur; the next second, the steel wire was already tightly wrapped around Lei Bao's neck.

With just a little force, the man's carotid artery would be severed on the spot.

Lei Bao was so frightened he was almost scared out of his wits, his whole body stiffened.

"Young Master Lu, what... what are you trying to do? We're all on the same side, how can you turn against your own people?"

A cold smile curled at the corner of Lu Qinglin's lips.

"Mr. Lei, I'm sorry, I forgot to tell you."

“There are consequences to not following the script.”

He paused, his gaze sweeping over Nan Wan, his tone laced with a hint of malice.

"I can't stand seeing others humiliate her."

Nan Wan's eyes narrowed sharply.

Lei Bao panicked completely; the cold touch on his neck made him afraid to move an inch.

"Young Master Lu, I was wrong, I was wrong! I'll let you leave right now, I won't let her kneel anymore, I won't kneel anymore!"

Lu Qinglin sneered.

"When did it become your place to dictate my territory?"

With a forceful pull, he snatched the black gemstone ring from Lei Bao's hand and casually put it into his pocket.

Nan Wan's eyes narrowed slightly.

Then, he took out a cell phone and a small notebook from Lei Bao, and without even looking at them, threw them directly to Nan Wan.

Nanwan instinctively reached out and caught it.

Lei Bao was completely panicked, his eyes wide open.

"Lu Qinglin, what are you going to do?"

Lu Qinglin said slowly and deliberately.

“You violated the cooperation agreement, so you naturally have to be punished.”

Lei Bao's face revealed a fierce expression, and he roared with bluster but no real fear.

"We agreed that we're partners! I want the ring, you want the person! You're trying to go back on your word!"

Lu Qinglin smiled, but the smile didn't reach his eyes.

"This is my territory. When did it become your place to set the rules?"

“You almost scared her just now, and you forced her to kneel down. It broke my heart to see that.”

Nan Wan rolled her eyes at him, then looked down and opened the notebook; her eyes lit up instantly.

Lei Bao's little ledger meticulously records all the shady dealings he's done over the years.

He wasn't very educated and didn't even trust computers, so he only dared to carry them with him at all times.

Lei Bao was furious.

"Lu Qinglin, you're messing with me!"

"I'll just play with you, why do I need to consult an auspicious day?"

Lu Qinglin tightened the steel wire in his hand slightly.

"Make them put down their weapons, or you'll be sending them to meet the King of Hell in three seconds."

He applied a little force, and blood immediately seeped from Lei Bao's neck.

Lei Bao was immediately shocked and shouted at the top of his lungs.

"Put them down! Put down all your weapons!"

The sound of weapons falling to the ground echoed from the warehouse.

Lu Qinglin said something.

"Walk."

He held onto Lei Bao and slowly led him away.

Nan Wan immediately followed.

After they had completely exited the warehouse, a fierce fight suddenly broke out inside.

It was Lu Qinglin's shadow team that appeared and began to deal with Lei Bao's group of men who had lost their weapons.

Lei Bao was still begging for mercy.

"Young Master Lu, let me go. I promise we'll keep to ourselves."

Lu Qinglin sneered.

"But you've already committed the crime."

"You hurt her, today is your death day."

Lu Qinglin made a harsh statement, then suddenly pulled a dagger from his waist and plunged it into his arm.

"Ah." Blood gushed from Lei Bao's arm, and all his imposing manner vanished.

"Young Master Lu, don't kill me! Don't kill me! I'll give you all the money I've earned!"

Lu Qinglin didn't even bother to raise an eyebrow.

"I don't like money, I only like women."

Lei Bao's survival instinct kicked in, and he immediately said something else.

"I have lots of beautiful women at home! And a treasure vault—you can take it all! Take it all!"

Nan Wan stepped forward and asked a cold question.

"Your business partners in Country A have harmed many of my brothers over the years. You have their ledgers, don't you?"

Lei Bao nodded vigorously.

Yes! Yes, they're all at my house!

Lu Qinglin asked again.

"Who are the two spies you planted in the Nan family?"

Nan Wan was startled and looked at Lu Qinglin.

Ultimately, under the threat of death, Lei Bao confessed everything.

Nan Wan gave Yang Yi a look, and Yang Yi immediately turned around, walked to the side, and made a phone call.

Lei Bao was still babbling and begging for mercy.

Lu Qinglin moved his hand and struck the back of his neck hard, quickly retracting the wire to prevent his carotid artery from being severed when he collapsed.

Lu Qinglin kicked the unconscious Lei Bao and said to Nan Wan.

"Lei Bao's hideout is on Beiyu Island. I'll lead men to raid it and eliminate this threat for you. Wait for me to return."

After saying that, he suddenly reached out, grabbed Nan Wan's chin, and kissed her forcefully with his burning lips.

Nan Wan's mind went blank for a moment, and she raised her hand to slap him, but he firmly grabbed her wrist, one hand on her waist and the other on her hand.

Nan Wan could break free, but at this moment, she was unusually obedient.

Undeniably, she still loves him.

Just now, when he was shot twice, she was terrified he would die...

Yang Yi and his men tactfully turned around quickly.

Lu Qinglin's kiss carried a sense of punishment and plunder, prying open her lips and teeth, and lingering on her.

After kissing for a while, Nan Wan couldn't help but bite him. Lu Qinglin let go and whispered in her ear with a sexy voice.

“I know you can’t bear to see me die. You’re willing to use your power ring to exchange for me. I will definitely repay you in the future.”

Listening to that magnetic bass voice in Nanwan, damn, my ears are practically pregnant.

"Let go," she hissed.

Lu Qinglin curled his lips, gave her a deep look, and turned to leave.

At this moment, the Shadow Team members had already brought out all of Lei Bao's dozen or so captured men, preparing to send them to the police station.

Lu Qinglin led ten people onto a large ship and sailed towards Beiyu Island.

It takes about half a day to get from here to Beiyu Island.

Nan Wan watched the departing ship and said something to Yang Yi beside her.

"Go help him."

Yang Yi nodded and immediately selected four of his brothers to board the boat as well.

Over the years, Lei Bao had challenged her and injured countless brothers in her gang. She had long wanted to settle this score with him.

It is indeed a great pleasure to have Lei Bao fall into her hands today.

Nan Wan returned home and slept soundly.

As evening approached, the aroma of the sour fish soup that my aunt served was irresistible. She had an unusually good appetite and ate a whole bowl of white rice.

She leaned back lazily in the recliner, her fingertips unconsciously swiping across her phone screen.

But his mind was filled with Lu Qinglin's outrageous actions during the day.

That man is truly despicable.

Yet it always turns out so unexpectedly.

He hid her power ring, probably waiting for her to come back so he could use it to threaten her.

no.

We still need to leave Rongcheng, this place of trouble, as soon as possible.

She gently stroked her flat stomach, her eyelids grew heavier and heavier, and she slowly fell asleep.

The dream was bizarre and fantastical.

Lu Qinglin led his men toward Beiyu Island, but a huge wave rose up at sea and the ship capsized.

He struggled in the icy water, shouting at her.

"Wanwan, save me!"

Nan Wan suddenly woke up with a start, her heart pounding wildly.

The next day, early morning.

Fang Zheng arrived at the Tang residence in a hurry.

His expression was grave, and his words chilled Nan Wan to the bone.

"Miss Nan, Mr. Lu... has gone missing."

"Before leaving Rongcheng, he signed a will, saying that if something happened to him, the will would be automatically sent to my email address so that I could pass it on to you."

Fang Zheng opened his mobile email, and the title of the email on the screen was glaringly obvious.

[Lu Qinglin's Will].

She had no time to care about what was inside.

Nan Wan picked up her phone and dialed Yang Yi's number directly.

The call could not be connected either.

An ominous premonition exploded in my heart, sweeping through my limbs and bones.

She thought for a few seconds, her voice icy cold.

"Prepare the helicopter, I'm going to Kita-Uoshima Island."

Fang Zheng immediately shook his head, his tone hesitant.

"President Lu instructed that you are absolutely not allowed to leave Rongcheng before he returns, for fear that you might be in danger."

Nan Wan became famous, her sharp gaze sweeping over him.

"It's none of my business!"

"I'm only going to save my men. If you hesitate any longer, they'll be dead!"

After saying that, she ignored Fang Zheng, gave her aunt a few simple instructions, and then led the two of them straight out.

The car headed straight for Tiannan Group.

When they arrived at the rooftop, a helicopter was already waiting on the helipad.

Nan Wan didn't think much of it, bent down and boarded the plane directly.

Fang Zheng gritted his teeth and followed him up.

The propellers whipped up a huge airflow, and the helicopter took off.

After flying for about two and a half hours, the outline of Kita-Uojima came into view.

A thick plume of smoke was rising above the island, standing out starkly against the grey sky.

This place is very close to Country F. It snowed heavily yesterday, and the temperature is unusually low.

Large areas of unmelted ice floes can still be seen around the island.

As soon as I got off the plane, a biting cold wind hit me.

Nan Wan wrapped her coat tighter and headed straight for the main house.

The place had been burned to ruins, and the blackened frame stood in the white snow, looking indescribably eerie.

It seems a fierce battle took place here.

Outside the ruins, glaring bloodstains can still be seen on the snow.

Nan Wan turned to Fang Zheng and said.

"Call for backup, bring men, and prepare to clear the island."

She and her two subordinates began to carefully examine the terrain of the entire island.

There wasn't a single living person.

Everyone disappeared.

She strolled toward the woods in the center of the island and gave instructions to the people behind her.

"You all split up and go check over there. Return to the tarmac in an hour."

"Yes, Miss Nan."

Nan Wan walked alone along the snow-covered path.

Suddenly, the view opened up before me.

It is an island within an island.

All around was a vast expanse of white, with a completely frozen lake in the middle.

"Lu Qinglin!"

She shouted into the empty forest, but her voice carried away in the cold air and received no response.

Undeterred, she bypassed the ice and walked into a dense forest.

Suddenly, the ground beneath my feet gave way to emptiness.

"ah!"

He instantly lost his balance and fell straight into a hole.

It's a hidden trap set by someone else!

She fell heavily into a cold pool of water and landed on something soft.

She instinctively reached out and touched it.

The sensation startled her...
