Luo Wuyan, who received the video, is currently recovering in the hospital.
Steven's broken finger was reattached, but it needs proper rest; otherwise, it will never be able to hold a paintbrush again.
After watching the video of Luo Xiu bullying Lu Zhiwei in front of everyone.
Luo Wuyan was so angry that she immediately got up from the hospital bed and made a phone call to Luo Xiu.
"Luo Xiu! You madman, what did you do to Weiwei?"
“What could be wrong? It’s just completing what Steven didn’t do for you in front of everyone at the Luo family manor. I’ve said before that as long as you behave, everyone will be fine, but you just never listen to your brother.”
Luo Xiu's seductive voice came from the other end of the phone.
"What exactly do you want?" Luo Wuyan roared through gritted teeth.
The thought of the all-powerful Weiwei being bullied by him while tied to his side made her want to rush back to the manor and tear him to pieces.
“Come back, make amends to Steven, and finish what you didn’t do that day. I can let bygones be bygones.”
"Okay, I'll be right back." Luo Wuyan hung up the phone.
After hanging up the phone, Luo Wuyan immediately called the police.
Lu Zhiwei once told her that she hated pointless sacrifices the most.
If she rushes over now, not only will she not be able to help Lu Zhiwei, but she may also put herself in danger.
Luo Xiu's kidnapping of Lu Zhiwei and his coercion of her constitute a crime, and the police should arrest him.
At least everyone can have some peace and quiet for a few days.
After Luo Xiu hung up the phone, he had someone untie the maid who was dressed up as Lu Zhiwei and wash off her makeup.
He didn't like seeing any of Lu Zhiwei's stand-in's faces in front of him for too long.
Steven sat leisurely in his chair: "So you're just waiting for your sister to come to you? What about that kid who plotted against me? I want to take him down right now."
"From what I know about my sister, she has already called the police. My people can track her location. You should take your men there now and deal with the man next to her."
As for my sister, do with her as you please, just don't kill her.
"It has to be Luo Xiu's brilliant strategy; I'm ashamed of myself." Steven gave Luo Xiu a thumbs up.
Then he led his men to evacuate the Luo family manor.
When the police arrived at the Luo family manor after receiving a report from Luo Wuyan.
They searched the Luo family manor thoroughly three times, but could not find Lu Zhiwei.
Luo Xiu turned the tables on Luo Wuyan, accusing her of filing a false police report and framing him with a fake video.
The police found no evidence to convict Luo Xiu and had to leave with their men.
However, Luo Wuyan and Shen Jiarui suffered the consequences.
When Shen Jiarui returned to the ward with a lunch.
The ward was full of people.
Steven had a gun pointed at Luo Wuyan's head, seemingly waiting for him to return.
The moment Luo Wuyan saw Shen Jiarui, she immediately shouted, "Shen Jiarui, run!"
Before Shen Jiarui could react, a sack was put over his head from behind, and then someone injected him with an anesthetic in his lower back.
The anesthesia overwhelmed his consciousness, and he passed out, only to be carried away by Steven's men.
Luo Wuyan was dragged out of the ward by Steven, who was pulling her by the neck.
A group of people, like lawless thugs, ran rampant in the hospital ward and took away Luo Wuyan and Shen Jiarui.
Several nurses, unable to bear it any longer, wanted to call the police.
He was shot down on the spot by Steven.
Before the police could arrive, Steven and his men had already arrogantly withdrawn from the city and headed to his territory—the border.
Steven's heavily guarded stronghold is located in a prime location on the border, surrounded by lush trees, with the villa nestled against the mountains and facing the sea.
After Luo Wuyan was brought here, she was left here without being locked up or tied up.
He let her wander around the villa like a headless fly, searching for Shen Jiarui's whereabouts.
Steven was not worried that Luo Wuyan had the ability to escape.
His subordinates were everywhere within a ten-kilometer radius; not even a fly could escape from there.
Steven returned to the villa after finishing his work.
As soon as Luo Wuyan saw him, she rushed up to him and questioned him about Shen Jiarui's whereabouts.
"Where did you hide him?" Luo Wuyan gripped Steven's shoulders tightly, her bloodshot eyes glistening with tears.
Steven took the opportunity to touch the back of Luo Wuyan's hand: "Is this how you beg me?"
Luo Wuyan disgustedly shook off Steven's hand and took a few steps back: "I didn't beg you, I would rather die than beg you."
"Is that so? I hope you'll still have the guts to talk to me like that later." Steven sneered, walked to Luo Wuyan's side, grabbed her by the neck, and shoved her towards the basement.
In the dark basement, only a dim yellow light shone on Shen Jiarui's head.
His hands and feet were tied to a chair, and his whole body was covered in whip marks.
He was only wearing a thin black shirt, which was torn open by the whip, revealing bloody seams and a blurry, white flesh mixed with blood, making the whip marks even more clearly visible.
That sunny and handsome face was also slapped a few times, with thin whip marks extending to his ears, and blood still seeping from the corner of his lips.
Seeing that scene, Luo Wuyan's heart broke.
She shoved Steven away and rushed to Shen Jiarui's side, hugging his head and comforting him: "Shen Jiarui, I'm sorry, I've dragged you into this."
With a sliver of consciousness remaining, Shen Jiarui raised his head slightly, a smile appearing on his lips: "No, it's my fault for being useless. I'm fine, I won't die, don't worry."
"What are you doing here? Why are you still acting tough at a time like this? Why aren't you managing the Shen Group properly in Yunzhou? What are you doing in the US? Didn't we break up?" Luo Wuyan angrily rebuked Shen Jiarui.
In her eyes, Shen Jiarui had always been a cowardly and weak fool.
When fate separated them, she truly believed that he would no longer try and would choose to stay obediently in Yunzhou.
Who knew that he would dare to secretly ask Lu Anyu to do his makeup, and use a fake face to lurk by her side for many days, secretly protecting her.
"Even if you don't want me anymore, I will still protect you. I can't let this beast bully you." Shen Jiarui gritted his teeth and uttered the words with difficulty.
Steven watched with great interest.
He applauded them enthusiastically: "With such unwavering affection between you two, how can I, Luo Wuyan's prospective husband, possibly feel about this?"
"Pah, you dog, I'd rather die than marry you." Luo Wuyan spat in Steven's face.
She once thought she could deceive herself and accept the old man Steven, but now seeing him is like seeing a pile of excrement.
It's disgusting, makes you feel nauseous, and makes you want to vomit.
“Really? I think you’ll change your mind soon.” Steven gave his bodyguard a wink.
The next second, a burly man came up and pushed Luo Wuyan away.
Then the man pulled out a Swiss Army knife and stabbed it directly into Shen Jiarui's back.
