After getting back into the car, Lu Yin drove around the first and second container warehouses and checked his ID in front of the deepest checkpoint.

Lu Yin seemed to be very familiar with this place. He circled inside a few more times, stopped the car behind a row of large cargo boxes, turned off the engine and got out.

Get off or wait here?

He didn't say hello, as if leaving the choice to Qi Nuan.

It's already dark now. If I wait here alone, I don't know if I will encounter any unknown danger.

Qi Nuan hesitated for only a few seconds before following him towards the innermost container close to the sea.

Seeing Lu Yin stop in front of a crimson container, Qi Nuan also walked over curiously and stood side by side with him.

Lu Yin reached into his sportswear pocket and pulled out a pair of black thin leather gloves as usual, and put them on his hands very snugly.

Qi Nuan watched him stretch out his right hand, cover it with his fist, and quickly press a long string of combination codes on the keypad.

The container door then made a "beep" sound and the two bolts between it and the container were retracted.

Lu Yin raised his hand and pushed, and the door of the box opened inward, reflecting the dim light inside.

Qi Nuan poked her head out curiously and saw two men, one sitting and one standing inside the container.

Before she could take a closer look, Lu Yin pushed her hard on the back.

With his center of gravity unstable, Qi Nuan took a few steps forward and rushed in.

Lu Yin followed closely behind, and as he came in, he closed the box door with a "click".

Qi Nuan stood firm and wanted to get angry at Lu Yin's sudden attack, but when he looked up, he was shocked by the scene in front of him.

The man sitting was tied to a chair, his head lowered, his semi-long hair hanging down in a messy manner, sticking to it and covering half of his face.

What terrified Qi Nuan was that there were obvious dried black and red bloodstains on the lower half of his face and on the light-colored zippered jacket on his upper body.

The big, dark-faced man standing next to him was none other than Zhao Yu, who had not been seen since sending Qi Nuan off that day.

There were also some dark red marks left on his fist.

It was obvious that Qi Nuan believed that this Special Assistant Zhao was the perpetrator who caused the injury to the tied-up man.

She met his gaze and clearly saw confusion in his eyes.

He frowned and looked at Lu Yin as if asking: Why is she here?

Qi Nuan was born in a wealthy family. Both his grandfather and father were recognized as kind and generous people, so he naturally had no enemies.

In addition, she had an extremely protective older brother, so she was away from violence and family struggles since childhood.

Even though his family fell into poverty later, Qi Nuan had to work alone in society, and at most he was bullied in some verbal disputes. He had never seen such a terrifying scene as the one before him.

She turned around and wanted to leave.

Lu Yin took two steps forward and blocked her way.

"Get out of the way. I want to get out. I'll pretend I didn't see anything."

A large hand reached out to pinch Qi Nuan's chin, forcing her to raise her head and meet the gaze of the man in front of her.

"At this time, you still want to get away alone?"

The color in his eyes grew darker, with an unyielding persistence.

"While we were waiting inside, I thought that if you escaped, I might be able to keep you out of this. But you chose not to escape, and you gave up your only chance to hold me hostage."

"That's... because you said you were wronged."

Qi Nuan struggled, and even she herself couldn't figure out why she was so anxious at that time.

She wanted to turn her face away from the clamp, but Lu Yin's powerful fingers twisted it back.

"I'm sorry, you've missed your only chance."

He looked into her eyes and smiled. "Now, I have no intention of letting you go. Rather than asking you to passively digest these facts in the future, it would be better for you to get familiar with my approach earlier."

Qi Nuan knew that she should at least scold him a few words.

But looking at the determination in the dark eyes on the smiling face in front of her, she couldn't say anything in the end.

Once the container door is locked, it cannot be opened from the inside without the password.

When Lu Yin was typing, he noticed Qi Nuan was watching and deliberately blocked a few numbers.

He wasn't worried at all that she would run away, so he let go of the tip of the chin in his hand and turned to walk towards the tied and injured man.

Zhao Yu saw the boss looking at him and immediately understood what he meant. He replied, "After a little scolding, this guy is still tight-lipped and still refuses to reveal the whereabouts of his accomplices."

Lu Yin nodded and approached the man on the chair who was groaning in pain.

Qi Nuan also heard what Zhao Yu said. She saw the beaten man follow Lu Yin's feet and look up.

His face was completely unsightly. Both of his eyes were bruised and purple from being beaten. One was severely swollen, and the other could only be opened a tiny slit. Most of his face was covered with dried blood.

Lu Yin pulled a chair of the same style and sat opposite him. He took out a few wet wipes with his black leather-gloved fingertips, rolled them into a ball, and stretched them towards the face of the beaten man, wiping the blood that had flowed from the tip of his nose to his lips.

"My Special Assistant Zhao was once a top street fighter. He's used to dealing with tough thugs, so it's hard for him to control his strength. I apologize to you on his behalf."

Although Lu Yin's actions were considerate and his words of apology were sincere, Qi Nuan saw that the man was trembling and his expression became even uglier. He looked at her with the only remaining slit in his eye.

"Help me! Miss, please save me!"

Lu Yin suddenly sighed and patted the man's relatively clean left cheek with his gloved right hand.
