Chapter 48 in progress



Anru delivered the heads quickly, and the people she arranged acted swiftly, staking out the area downstairs at Yuanxing International Financial Plaza the very next night.

Before taking on a mission, the person accepting the order leaves a message on the website, specifying the time of the mission and the items to be carried, including the person's clothing and appearance.

The person who took the order thoughtfully added a note to the item list: "Dear customer, please rest assured that the bottle contains diluted sulfuric acid. It just has a strong smell, but even if you accidentally open it and get splashed, it will not cause you any harm."

Qin Suisui's lips curled slightly. She hadn't expected the other party to have such a strong sense of service. It seemed that the industry was quite competitive.

In order to resolve the dispute as soon as possible, she left work on time in the afternoon and casually took a look around as she walked out of Yuanxing International.

A middle-aged man acting strangely was watching her from the flower bed on the left.

Judging from his appearance, the middle-aged man was the kind of person who would go unnoticed in a crowd; he was ordinary and unremarkable.

What's most ridiculous is that the other person even winked at him as they walked over.

Qin Suisui secretly moved her legs, preparing to kick the middle-aged man as soon as he approached, and then step forward to stop him, striving to finish the fight quickly.

Last night, she went to the gym and found a personal trainer to practice the exercises she would need for today, hoping that nothing would go wrong.

Out of the corner of her eye, she saw the middle-aged man getting closer and closer to her. Her whole body tensed up. She saw him take a bottle out of his shirt pocket, preparing to splash it on her.

Qin Suisui seized the opportunity and was about to launch a kick when a figure leaped up from behind and knocked the middle-aged man to the ground.

The middle-aged man slid for about ten meters.

"ah!"

The middle-aged man was inexplicably kicked to the ground by a tremendous force.

He was curled up in pain, feeling a suffocating pain in his abdomen and back.

"I broke my ribs!"

The middle-aged man was in so much pain he was covered in cold sweat. Damn it, the other party didn't say they would hit him so hard! Is this fee enough for hospitalization?

He was in so much pain that he was about to cry.

Qin Suisui stared dumbfounded at the chaotic scene before her, her movements a beat too slow, unable to react correctly for a moment.

She stared blankly at the tall man walking towards her.

"Brother Huo!"

"Are you alright?"

Huo Zhongyuan stepped forward, took Qin Suisui's arm, looked her over, and seeing that there was no injury, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

He turned and strode toward the middle-aged man who had fallen to the ground.

"Hey, stay away from me!"

The middle-aged man was so frightened when he saw the man who had just kicked him flying walking towards him with a fierce look on his face that he almost fainted. He scrambled backward on all fours.

Damn it, wasn't this supposed to be just a performance? Wasn't this supposed to be a casual kick? This is a fall from a great height, my body feels like it's falling apart. If this happens again, it really will fall apart.

"Cough cough!"

His throat was sore and itchy, and he coughed violently, causing sharp pain in his chest.

Seeing the tall man approaching, she couldn't help but shout loudly.

"Oh my god! Don't come any closer, or I'll be beaten to death!"

"Senior Brother Huo, wait a minute!"

Hearing the middle-aged man's painful cries, Qin Suisui finally reacted. She quickly ran over and wrapped her arms around Huo Zhongyuan to prevent him from attacking again.

"Senior Brother Huo, don't do it! Let's take him to the nearby police station and interrogate him properly to find out who sent him."

"What if you hurt him badly and the clues are lost?"

What should you do if you accidentally cripple someone?

She could sense that Senior Brother Huo was agile and ruthless.

Look at how badly the middle-aged man in front of us was beaten.

The middle-aged man, groaning in agony, looked so pitiful that she felt even more sorry for him as she looked at him lying on the ground, moaning in pain.

The middle-aged man looked at Qin Suisui with shock and helplessness.

Qin Suisui could only hug her senior brother tightly.

Huo Zhongyuan's body stiffened instantly, a faint fragrance lingering in his nostrils, and he felt the soft curves beneath his arm.

His heart raced, and after a pause, he said in a low voice, "Qin Suisui, let go of my arm first."

"Oh! Okay, sure."

Qin Suisui finally felt her senior brother's body stiffen, and she was so embarrassed that she almost dug a building out of her toes.

She quickly let go, took a big step back, lowered her head to hide her embarrassment, and ran her fingers through her hair.

Huo Zhongyuan's throat bobbed, his voice low and deep.

"Stand back a bit, let me control him first."

From his angle, he could see her bright red earlobes and the blush on her cheeks.

He pursed his lips and strode towards the middle-aged man.

The coldness in his eyes terrified the middle-aged man, turning his face deathly pale and causing his legs to involuntarily kick backward.

"If you don't want to get hurt, then don't let them mess with you."

Huo Zhongyuan stepped forward, grabbed the middle-aged man's collar, and pinned his arms behind his back, forcing him to immobilize himself.

"Ouch, be gentle, be gentle!"

The middle-aged man craned his neck in pain, his face turning bright red.

The pained expression on his face was too much for Qin Suisui to bear. She secretly resolved to double the reward for this man afterward.

Fortunately, a passerby called the police, and the police station was very close by, so the officers responded quickly.

The middle-aged man seemed to see a glimmer of hope, looking at the police officers with teary eyes, leaving the officers puzzled. If it weren't for the clear target and the confirmation from others, those who didn't understand might have thought the middle-aged man was the victim.

"You two come with us to the police station to make a statement."

The police officer on duty didn't look very old. He handcuffed the middle-aged man and looked at the two people standing to the side, especially the girl with her eyebrows slightly furrowed.

The police officer couldn't help but lower his voice.

"Don't worry, the process will be quick."

"Mr. Huo, you have a client to meet later."

The male assistant accompanying the boss looked at him with a troubled expression, not understanding why his usually calm and composed boss would act so impulsively. What was even more serious was that their appointment with the client was fast approaching.

This client has a rather special status; they booked today's time a week in advance and came all the way from the north of the city.

If you stand someone up at this time, you don't know if the boss will regret it later, and it will implicate you.

Huo Zhongyuan gave his assistant a cold look.

"Talk to the other party and ask them to postpone the time by an hour. If they don't agree, reschedule."

"But~"

The male assistant was about to speak when he was stopped by the boss's cold gaze. He shut his mouth sheepishly, thinking, "Fine, whatever the boss says is fine."

"Senior brother, have I caused you any trouble?"

Qin Suisui's face flushed slightly. She felt that she and Senior Brother Huo were naturally incompatible. Every time they met, she would encounter one problem after another. This misunderstanding made her even more miserable.
