Following the instructions of the scarred man, Ji Fuling drove the car out of the city and arrived at an abandoned factory in the suburbs.

As soon as the car stopped, the scarred man stabbed Ji Fuling hard with his gun and ordered, "Behave yourself and get out of the car!"

"Alright, alright, get off the bus then. Be careful with your gun, don't let it go off accidentally."

After giving a very serious reminder, Ji Fuling finally opened the car door and got out.

The scarred man pointed a gun at her and ordered her to walk into the factory. "Stop dawdling and get on with it! There's not even a dog here except for my men. Don't expect anyone to save you!"

A cold glint flashed in Ji Fuling's eyes, but her face remained impassive. As she walked forward, she said, "Brother, how about we make a deal?"

"How much did the person who ordered you to kidnap me pay you? I can give you double or triple the amount, it's all negotiable. As long as you release me now, I can pretend nothing happened."

From the moment the other party told her to drive along a designated route, she was certain that the other party was acting under someone else's orders.

Aside from Ji Xinqi, she really couldn't think of anyone else in the entire Yuncheng who didn't want her to have a good time.

I just don't know how Ji Xinqi plans to have this person deal with her.

To kill them outright? Or to subject them to various forms of torture?

Hearing Ji Fuling's words, the scarred man sneered, "You still want to bribe me? Don't dream! There are rules in our line of work. Turning against someone is breaking the rules. No matter how much money you offer, it won't work. I advise you to accept your fate and not waste your time!"

Ji Fuling knew it wouldn't be easy to persuade the other party. She only proposed the deal as a trial, and she would have to think of another way to get out of this predicament.

What she needs most right now is to stay calm.

Upon entering the factory, Ji Fuling discovered four other men with a shady appearance.

These four men were the scarred man's accomplices, with the scarred man as their leader.

The difficulty of escaping increased instantly. Ji Fuling frowned and cursed a few indescribable words in her heart.

Soon, she was taken into a room and tied to a wooden chair with a backrest.

"You guys, go outside and keep watch."

The scarred man gave an order and sent his four accomplices outside the room.

The door closed, and Ji Fuling stared expressionlessly at the scarred man, coldly asking, "What exactly do you want? Do you want to kill me? Or what?"

The scarred man put away his pistol, his sinister gaze sweeping over Ji Fuling's face and body.

"You should be grateful you have a pretty face and a charming figure, otherwise you'd be dead by now!"

According to the employer, he should have killed the woman directly.

But this woman is so beautiful, it's a shame she died like this. He's never been with such a beautiful woman before, he can kill her after he's had his fill!

Ji Fuling knew immediately what disgusting idea the scarred man was up to.

Staring at her with those lecherous eyes, she wanted nothing more than to gouge out his eyeballs, throw them on the ground, and stomp on them.

But in order to get out of this situation, she not only couldn't show her anger, but also had to pretend to be weak.

"What can you do with me tied up like this?"

Ji Fuling suppressed her emotions, softened her voice, and glanced at the pistol tucked into the scarred man's waist. "Anyway, you have a gun, and your men are guarding outside, so I definitely can't escape."

"Why don't you let go of me? That way I can cooperate with you. What do you think?"

The scarred man seemed to consider it for a moment and thought the suggestion was good.

He stood in front of Ji Fuling and said in a sinister tone, "If you cooperate well, I can give you a quick death after I'm done with it, but if you dare to play any tricks, you will die a horrible death!"

Ji Fuling sneered inwardly, but put on a timid expression, "I'm all alone, what tricks can I possibly play?"

"That's true, I doubt you can come up with anything..."

The scarred man spoke arrogantly, then leaned over and began to untie Ji Fuling.

The moment the rope loosened, Ji Fuling seized the opportunity and delivered a powerful elbow strike to the scarred man's crown.

At the same time, she forcefully thrust her knee upwards, slamming it heavily into the scarred man's chin.

"Click—"

With a cracking sound of bones dislocating, blood spilled from the scarred man's mouth.

Before he could even scream, Ji Fuling struck him on the top of the head with another downward chop.

The scarred man collapsed to the ground with a thud, his head hitting the concrete floor hard, and he immediately lost consciousness.

Blood was gushing from his forehead, pooling on the ground.

Ji Fuling moved her wrists, which were stiff from being tied up, and stepped forward to take the pistol that the scarred man had tucked into his waistband.

There are still some scum outside to deal with, so I have to take this gun.

"You dare to lay a finger on your great-aunt? You're asking for death!"

Thinking of the scarred man's disgusting gaze, Ji Fuling snorted coldly and kicked him hard in the head.

After kicking her a few times, she gripped the pistol tightly, turned around and walked out with a cold expression.

"Bang--"

The tightly closed door was suddenly kicked open with a loud bang.

Ji Fuling instinctively thought it was an accomplice of the scarred man, and immediately raised her pistol, pointing the muzzle at the door.

To everyone's surprise, it was Ye Nanqing who walked in through the door.

His handsome face was terrifyingly gloomy, and he exuded a chilling aura, like a demon from hell.

"Uncle..."

Ji Fuling was slightly taken aback.

The next second, the gun in her hand was snatched away and thrown to the ground, and Ye Nanqing pulled her into his arms and held her tightly.

Holding her in his arms, feeling her warmth and breath, Ye Nanqing's heart, which had been hanging in suspense, finally settled down.

He gently rested his chin on the top of her soft hair and said in a low, husky voice, "Ji Fuling, you're not allowed to scare me like that again, do you hear me?"

"What did you say?"

Ji Fuling asked suspiciously.

She knew Ye Nanqing was speaking, but his voice was too low for her to hear.

Ye Nanqing did not respond, but tightened his arms around Ji Fuling even more.

At the entrance, a group of well-trained bodyguards in black stood watching this scene in shock.

Their mouths were so wide open they could fit an ostrich egg!

Is this still the same Nightclub they know?

Just a moment ago he was a bloodthirsty devil, showing no mercy when torturing people, but in the blink of an eye he has become so tender and affectionate...

"What are you looking at? Do you even want your eyes anymore? Turn away right now!"

Chen Heng gave a low rebuke to the bodyguards.

He had already been shocked before, so he was extremely calm.

In order to protect the eyeball, the bodyguards immediately turned their backs in unison.

Feeling Ye Nanqing's embrace tightening, Ji Fuling raised her hand to block his chest, struggling as she said, "Uncle, can you loosen your grip for a moment? I feel suffocated, I can hardly breathe!!"

Hearing this, Ye Nanqing slowly released her, his gaze sweeping over her to check her over. "Are you injured?"

He knew she was skilled, but when he found out she was being held hostage, he couldn't help but feel nervous.

I was afraid she would suffer a loss.

I was afraid she would get hurt.

I was afraid something might happen to her.

He had never felt fear before, but now he was experiencing it deeply.

"I'm fine, he's the one who's in trouble."

Ji Fuling shook her head and pointed to the scarred man who had fainted beside her.

Upon hearing this, Chen Heng couldn't help but secretly turn around. When he saw the scarred man lying unconscious in a pool of blood, he couldn't help but sigh inwardly—

No wonder she's the woman Ye Zong likes; she's just as ruthless as him!
