Upon hearing the noise, everyone instinctively turned around.
Then they saw several soldiers walk in from outside, and the one in the lead was none other than Lu Lingxiao.
When Jiang Peizhen saw these soldiers, her expression changed drastically, and she immediately felt uneasy, especially since the young man in the lead gave her a sense of familiarity.
It's like I've seen it somewhere...
In an instant—
Jiang Peizhen couldn't help but widen her eyes, a hint of panic showing on her face. She stared straight at Lu Lingxiao. It was him! It was Lu Lingxiao! When did he return to the capital?
Why hasn't she received any news?
When Yu Juan saw soldiers in military uniforms come to her door, she suddenly felt terrified and had a feeling that she was going to be doomed.
"Lu Lingxiao, what are you doing?" Jiang Peizhen tried to remain calm and took the initiative, but her hands, hidden under the covers, were clenched into fists. She told herself not to panic, she must not panic.
As long as Lu Lingxiao doesn't have concrete evidence, he can't do anything to her.
At this moment, Jiang Peizhen did not think that the man in black who sneaked into the Lu family villa last night was Lu Lingxiao.
Because the two men in black last night were not only skilled in combat, but one of them was also a pharmaceutical expert whose pharmaceutical technology surpassed hers, she subconsciously ruled out that possibility.
But I don't know...
Her arrogance was often the weapon that killed her!
Upon hearing this, Lu Lingxiao casually raised his eyelids. He first glanced indifferently at Yu Juan, then turned his gaze to Jiang Peizhen.
Seeing Jiang Peizhen's right cheek wrapped up like a rice dumpling, her pale face, and the panic in her eyes that she tried desperately to hide but couldn't, he slightly curled his thin lips.
"Should I call you Jiang Peizhen or Sakuragi Miki? You've been infiltrating my country Z for decades, during which time you've developed countless spies to gather intelligence for you, including the Jiang family members, young and old, who have all become lackeys of Japan under your brainwashing..."
"Now, you are officially arrested!"
As soon as Lu Lingxiao finished speaking, the soldiers who were waiting at the door of the ward quickly walked to the bedside and grabbed Jiang Peizhen without giving her any chance to escape.
"Let me go! I'm Huo Zhongqing's wife. You have no right to arrest me. Besides, my surname is Jiang, my given name is Peizhen, and I'm from the Jiang family in Beijing. I've never even heard of those Sakuragi or Ginki people you mentioned..."
Before she could finish speaking, Lu Lingxiao let out a soft laugh.
He calmly uttered, "You can deny it, or you can continue to play dumb, but Jiang Peizhen, do you think we would suddenly come to arrest you if we didn't have enough evidence?"
"you!"
Jiang Peizhen, of course, refused to admit it, still harboring a sliver of hope that Lu Lingxiao couldn't possibly find out her true identity and that Lu Lingxiao must be deliberately bluffing her.
Suddenly—
She thought of the man in black from last night.
"Are you the man in black who broke into the Lu family last night?"
Upon hearing this, Lu Lingxiao raised an eyebrow and looked down at her with a cold smile.
Seeing the contempt and coldness in Lu Lingxiao's eyes, Jiang Peizhen's face turned pale in an instant. She had already understood that Lu Lingxiao had quietly returned to the capital long ago, and then deliberately set a trap, waiting for her to fall into it.
Unfortunately, on the very night she learned of Su Qing and Cai Juan's deaths from the Su family, she was drugged and had no recollection of what happened afterward.
Looking back now, it must have been Lu Lingxiao who used the drugs to extract all her secrets.
Upon realizing this, Jiang Peizhen's heart sank to the bottom.
Lu Lingxiao's eyes remained calm.
He looked at Jiang Peizhen, his starry eyes radiating a cold yet resolute light, and directly ordered, "Take her away!"
He then looked at Yu Juan, who was standing there dumbfounded, and said in a voice as cold as ice, without a trace of warmth, "Yu Juan, you have connections with enemy agents. Now, we are going to take you back for investigation by the organization."
Upon hearing this, Yu Juan, who had been stunned, instantly came to her senses.
Her lips trembled as she shook her head repeatedly, "No, no, no, I didn't, I haven't done anything to betray the country. I'm just all talk; if you asked me to actually do those things, I wouldn't dare, I really wouldn't..."
A spy? Stealing intelligence? How could she dare?
She only dared to act arrogantly because she married a powerful and influential husband and had a mother-in-law with a strong background. But at most, she would just cause trouble for others and annoy those she didn't like.
Apart from that, she really didn't do anything to betray the country.
Besides, she didn't have the guts.
Whether or not it was done, we'll only know after we take him back for questioning.
Lu Lingxiao wouldn't let Yu Juan off just because she tried her best to argue and deny it. He gave those people a look, and they immediately grabbed Yu Juan and took her away.
"No, no, no, you can't arrest me! I haven't done anything wrong, I haven't..."
Yu Juan was so frightened that she was as pale as paper and her whole body was shaking. She was almost scared to the point of urinary incontinence. Coupled with the fear in her heart, when the two soldiers came over and arrested her, she fainted from fright.
The special operations team members had no sense of chivalry; they simply grabbed her and strode out of the ward.
Jiang Peizhen was also taken away at the same time.
She wanted to break free from the restraints and even tried to escape, but unfortunately, her superiors sent a special operations team. Every member of the team possessed special skills and extraordinary abilities.
Jiang Peizhen's little schemes were no match for them, especially since she had spent the night with someone and was already exhausted, so her strength was negligible.
As she was being led away, she suddenly turned around and shouted at Lu Lingxiao, "I want to see Huo Zhongqing! Lu Lingxiao, have your grandfather come see me! If you don't let him come, you'll regret it!"
Lu Lingxiao had a cold smile on his lips as he glanced indifferently at Jiang Peizhen's face and slowly uttered a few words.
Just you wait!
When you die, you will never see that old man again.
Finally, with his hands in his pockets, he maliciously added, "Oh, right, I almost forgot to tell you, your good son Huo Shixiang and your old flame Liang Hongchang are already waiting for you inside!"
"you......"
Jiang Peizhen's face turned ashen instantly, her pupils filled with astonishment and terror. He had acted so quickly, capturing Huo Shixiang and Liang Hongchang in just a short while.
Lu Lingxiao's lips curled up in a mocking manner.
He nodded slightly to the leader of the action team, who immediately took Jiang Peizhen and Yu Juan away.
