Lu Zhiwei remained very calm.
Luo Xiu had spent four years developing the bracelet; it wasn't something that could be easily unlocked.
No matter how capable the people in the Shen Group are, they were able to unlock the first metal lock thanks to the Shen Group's many years of rich experience in jewelry design and its advanced cutting-edge technology.
The Loth Group, controlled by Krosh, is no pushover either. It is the most powerful entity in the art capital, and its jewelry design department is world-renowned.
Shen Jinmo squatted down, carefully grasped Lu Zhiwei's wrist, and examined the bracelet that was half unfastened.
A black mechanical lock is embedded in the inner layer of the pop-out metal interface, and the interfaces are tightly locked together, fitting perfectly.
"Mr. Shen, this lock is controlled by a ten-digit password." After studying it for a while, the technician looked at Shen Jingmo with a worried expression.
Shen Jinmo clenched his fists and slowly stood up: "Go get a computer, I'll decipher it."
"Are you kidding me?" Lu Zhiwei subconsciously looked at Shen Jingmo.
I think he's doing something incredibly crazy.
"There are 10 billion possible combinations for a 10-digit password. I can create a password system and let the system try all 10 billion combinations. It will definitely be able to find the password, but it will take some time."
Shen Jinmo frowned and said sincerely to Lu Zhiwei.
"Oh no, Mr. Shen, there might not be time to try the password." The technician jumped up in alarm.
Shen Jinmo's cold, sharp eyes swept over his employees: "What do you mean?"
"It's possible that when we unlocked the first latch, we triggered the miniature bomb embedded inside. The bomb has already set off an alarm and is counting down." The technician only knew the technology, but didn't know how to disassemble or defuse the bomb.
"What did you say?" Shen Jingmo's pupils suddenly widened, and he gripped Lu Zhiwei's hand tightly.
Both he and Lu Zhiwei heard the alarm sound from the bracelet.
"This bomb shouldn't be very powerful; it won't kill me, and Luo Xiu couldn't kill me either," Lu Zhiwei shrugged and smiled.
“But it’s enough to ruin your hand. You know how important your hand is to you.” Shen Jinmo gripped Lu Zhiwei’s wrist tightly.
The guilt in his heart was written all over his face.
He shouldn't have been so hasty.
"Go find a few bomb disposal experts and get them here quickly," Shen Jingmo instructed the technician beside him.
"Okay, Mr. Shen, I'll be right there."
Shen Jinmo, who stayed by Lu Zhiwei's side, didn't stop either, and went straight into the house to ask for a computer.
He needed to unlock the mechanical combination lock as quickly as possible.
I just hope the bomb doesn't explode before he unlocks it.
Lu Zhiwei saw that he had moved a computer and was sitting next to her, busy with it, never leaving her side.
"You should go back inside and unlock the bracelet; it could explode at any moment," Lu Zhiwei kindly reminded him.
She had gotten herself into trouble with Luo Xiu, so she deserved her bad luck and didn't want to involve innocent people.
"We'll die together." Shen Jingmo's thin lips moved slightly, a resolute and determined look appearing at the corners of his mouth.
If his mistake causes harm to Lu Zhiwei, he will shield her with his body from the bomb.
At the very least, we must minimize the harm done to Lu Zhiwei.
Bang--
The villa's gate was violently broken open.
Luo Xiu, who had just left the villa, drove back alone.
He left the car, its hood still smoking, in the yard and jumped out.
Luo Xiu, his face grim, strode aggressively towards Lu Zhiwei and Shen Jinmo: "Who gave you permission to touch this bracelet? Are you out of your minds?"
Shen Jinmo clenched his fingers, closed the notebook, stood up, and turned to confront Luo Xiu.
The two powerful figures stood together, their eyes blazing with a destructive force.
"You keep saying you like her, but the bracelet you gave her had a bomb embedded in it. Luo Xiu, are you out of your mind?" Shen Jingmo really wanted to punch Luo Xiu flat.
"If you don't meddle, nothing will happen. The bomb countdown is five minutes, and there are still about two minutes left. If you kneel down and beg me, I'll stop the bomb countdown."
Luo Xiu raised his lips, looking at Shen Jinmo's wicked smile.
As long as Shen Jinmo still loves Lu Zhiwei, he will have no choice but to submit to him for her sake.
"Don't beg him, let him blow it up." Lu Zhiwei leaned back leisurely in her chair.
She was also gambling, gambling on whether Luo Xiu still had a shred of humanity left.
If he really let the bomb explode in her hands.
She accepted it.
Shen Jinmo's eyes were bloodshot as he stared at Luo Xiu's face, wishing he could tear him apart.
"There's one minute left. You'd better think it over." Luo Xiu stared at his phone.
The bracelet is connected to the system on his phone, so he can see the exact countdown time.
"Thirty seconds."
“Twenty seconds…” Luo Xiu raised his lips, gazing at Shen Jinmo with a playful expression.
"You really dare to hurt even a finger of hers?" Shen Jinmo asked angrily.
“Yes, I love her. Even though she is disabled, I won’t despise her. Even though she’s missing a hand, she’s still my Zhizhi.” Luo Xiu smiled freely.
His whole body was shrouded in a ghostly and terrifying aura.
He wouldn't care even if Lu Zhiwei lost a hand.
What he cared more about was that his rival in love, Shen Jinmo, would kneel down to him in front of Lu Zhiwei.
He could humiliate him, ridicule him, and trample his proud and unruly self-esteem under his feet.
This is the kind of pleasure he wants.
Pride like Shen Jinmo.
Even though he had always wanted to win back Lu Zhiwei, he had never knelt down in front of her.
His upbringing and self-esteem told him...
Kneeling is the most incompetent thing to do.
"Ten seconds left."
Luo Xiu raised his phone, a slight smile playing on his lips, and gave Shen Jinmo a final reminder.
Shen Jinmo bit her lip, clenched her fists, bent her knees slightly, and knelt down on the ground.
Lu Zhiwei stared in shock, her eyes wide, and stood up from her seat.
That's the high and mighty eldest son of the Shen family; he never bows his head to anyone.
Now, for the sake of her one hand, he is willing to kneel before Luo Xiu.
Luo Xiu looked down at Shen Jinmo's sinking body.
That sense of victory and pride was evident on his face.
Just as Luo Xiu was getting carried away with his triumph, Shen Jinmo suddenly straightened up from his bent-over position.
Longshou swiftly snatched the phone from Luo Xiu's hand and delivered a spinning kick, striking Luo Xiu's knee.
He was stoic and reserved, and he only knelt before one person his entire life.
That person can only be Lu Zhiwei.
Luo Xiu, who was already injured, was a step too slow and failed to snatch the phone back. He almost knelt on the ground and suffered a great loss.
After snatching the phone, Shen Jinmo immediately paused the timed system on the screen.
Time froze at the last second.
Having salvaged the mess he had made, Shen Jinmo wiped the sweat from his forehead and smiled slightly at Lu Zhiwei behind him: "Fortunately."
Luo Xiu, having regained his senses, was burning with rage.
"Do you really think I'd be willing to blow up Zhizhi's hand?"
Luo Xiu suddenly pulled out another phone from his suit pocket, opened the system, and resumed the countdown.
The countdown reached its final second.
The beeping stopped.
However, the bracelet did not explode.
