Ning Yuan chuckled lightly, but there was no smile in her eyes: "Qin Sheng, you don't need to worry about that. What I'm more concerned about is the safety of this batch of goods. After all, these are priceless treasures."
Qin Changsheng's gaze was cold, and his tone was steady: "Don't worry, President Ning, the goods are with us. I'll take a group of people and retreat first, while I'll cover the rear here, and call for reinforcements at the same time."
He paused, his deep gaze falling on Ning Yuan's face. "I, Qin Changsheng, am a man of the underworld; I have that much sense of responsibility."
Ning Yuan raised an eyebrow but didn't say anything, which was taken as agreement to his proposal.
After all, preserving the inventory is the most important thing right now.
After the two quickly discussed the retreat route and contact methods, Ning Yuan immediately instructed Aheng: "Aheng, have our people load the trucks according to the list, prioritizing the valuables!"
Ah Heng nodded and efficiently directed his men to begin moving the goods, while saying in a deep voice, "We also need to send someone to scout out whether there are any ambushes along the retreat route."
A strategic retreat cannot be undertaken blindly; otherwise, one will fall into the enemy's trap.
Ning Yuan readily agreed: "No problem, I'll hand over the command of this area to you."
Leave professional matters to professionals; a boss should refrain from giving unsolicited instructions!
Ah Heng nodded, a hint of excitement flashing in her eyes. It had been too long since she had fought, and she had become rusty. This wouldn't do!
She immediately took out a map and began giving orders to people.
Ah Kun, leading another group of men, stormed out of the warehouse, ready to teach those reckless Sun Yee On gangsters a lesson.
The warehouse was immediately filled with noise as people moved goods and kept watch, but the work was efficient and orderly as boxes were loaded onto trucks.
Watching Qin Changsheng make a phone call to mobilize his men, Ning Yuan walked to his side, her tone icy—
"Mr. Qin, I received two shipments before without any problems, so why did I run into the Sun Yee On this time? Is there a mole among your people?"
Upon hearing this, one of Qin Changsheng's henchmen immediately objected: "Young Master Ning, what do you mean by that? Who knows if your side leaked the news?"
Upon hearing this, Ah Heng sneered and retorted without any politeness: "Bullshit! Our men came directly to the dock after receiving the call. This dock is full of your people!"
"Even if we wanted to double-cross someone, we'd have to do it on the street, not run right under your noses. If it wasn't a mole among your people, who else could it be?"
Qin Changsheng and his men looked extremely grim. They exchanged dark glances as they busied themselves loading the goods.
This dock is indeed their territory. It's hard to believe that there wasn't a mole among the Sun Yee On members who were able to find this place so accurately.
Qin Changsheng took a deep breath and forcefully suppressed the anger in his heart.
He said in a deep voice, "Mr. Ning, no matter who the mole is, the most important thing is to ensure your safety and the safety of the goods. Please believe me, I will do my best."
Ning Yuan stared at him coldly, a slight smirk playing on her lips: "I hope so, Mr. Qin. For the sake of both of us."
No sooner had he finished speaking than a series of hurried footsteps and gunshots rang out from outside.
Another wounded subordinate rushed in, shouting to Qin Changsheng, "Brother Sheng, the situation is bad! There are too many of them! Brother Kun is leading men to hold them off, but we have an inside man to help us!"
Qin Changsheng yanked his subordinate up, his tone so dark it seemed to drip water: "Did you tell them this guy belongs to Fourth Uncle, not 14K?"
Although the Sun Yee On and 14K triads fight tooth and nail for territory, they usually give Uncle Si (Fourth Uncle) face.
The man winced in pain, hissing as he nodded, "I told them! But they wouldn't listen at all; it's obvious they're trying to double-cross me!"
The scars on Qin Changsheng's handsome face looked somewhat distorted. He gritted his teeth and squeezed out a sentence: "Damn it! Those bastards from Xinyi'an have eaten the gall of a bear and the heart of a leopard!"
He drew his gun sharply and turned to Ning Yuan: "You retreat immediately! Forget about the goods, take as much as you can! I'll cover your retreat!"
It's obvious the other party is after the goods and Uncle Si; things aren't going to end well today.
Ning Yuan frowned, a cold glint flashing in her beautiful eyes.
She made a decisive decision: "Aheng! Immediately arrange for someone to call the police!"
Upon hearing this, Qin Changsheng and his men were stunned, staring at Ning Yuan as if she were crazy. "Call the police? Young Master Ning, are you kidding me? This is a gang fight, you're calling the police?"
Ning Yuan gave them a cool look: "I'm a legitimate businesswoman, of course I'd call the police if I got robbed. You're a gangster, you can handle your own business."
She sneered inwardly. Call the police? Of course, it wasn't just for calling the police.
The fact that the Sun Yee On triad dared to touch Uncle Si's goods means they must have someone backing them up.
Rather than passively taking a beating, it's better to stir up trouble and make things uneasy for everyone.
Qin Changsheng looked at Ning Yuan. This woman was even more ruthless than he had imagined!
Qin Changsheng frowned, wanting to say something more: "Ning Yuan, you..."
Ning Yuan interrupted him sharply: "Stop talking nonsense! Get out of here! If you want to die, don't drag me down with you!"
Hearing the increasingly intense gunfire outside the warehouse, Qin Changsheng gritted his teeth, knowing that now was not the time to argue.
He made a snap decision and yelled at his men, "Withdraw! All of you, get the hell out of here!!"
At a command, the people in the warehouse surged out like a tidal wave.
The Sun Yee On triad members arrived aggressively, and gunfire erupted on the docks, sparks flew, and shouts of cursing and killing filled the air.
Ah Heng, holding a gun in both hands, stood in front of Ning Yuan, firing shots as he shouted, "Xiao Ning, get in the car! It's too dangerous here. I'll take you away!"
Ning Yuan nodded crisply and opened the door to get into the car carrying Tang Sancai pottery.
"Bang!" A bullet whistled past her cheek, leaving a shallow bloodstain on her fair face.
Before she could react, she was tackled by a powerful force and slammed heavily to the ground.
"Bang!" Another gunshot rang out, and Ning Yuan felt a buzzing in her ears as a warm liquid splashed onto her face.
Ning Yuan looked up in surprise, meeting Qin Changsheng's slender, fox-like eyes.
At this moment, his eyes no longer held their usual coldness; instead, they carried a complex emotion that was difficult to detect.
"Are you alright?" Qin Changsheng's voice was hoarse.
"You..." Ning Yuan was held tightly in his arms, and she subconsciously struggled a little. Qin Changsheng groaned and his face turned deathly pale instantly.
She then realized that the warm liquid on her face was blood splattered from Qin Changsheng's shoulder.
"Get in the car quickly!" Ah Heng had rushed over at some point and pulled Ning Yuan out of Qin Changsheng's arms.
Ning Yuan felt Qin Changsheng push her, and then Aheng half-dragged and half-pushed her into the car.
Ah Heng was a skilled driver; with a turn of the steering wheel, the car made a sharp turn and sped off the dock.
Ning Yuan subconsciously turned around and saw Qin Changsheng being forced into another truck by 14K's men.
She was somewhat stunned...
The image of Qin Changsheng standing in front of her, shielding her from bullets with his own body, flashed before her eyes.
Why would this man, who is clearly on the opposite side of her, save her?
Just then, more than a dozen police cars arrived with sirens blaring, shattering the chaos at the dock.
Immediately afterwards, a Flying Tigers helicopter circled overhead, its roar and searchlights illuminating the entire dock...
In that instant, Ning Yuan's heart skipped a beat...
The beach again, and the Flying Tigers again…
