The reporter clutched his camera and immediately sprinted to the left.
After running a few steps, he was stopped by black-clad thugs who surrounded him.
He was surrounded by enemies on all sides, and they were closing in on him.
Lu Ziyang always had a smile on his lips, but the smile was devoid of warmth and carried a strong killing intent.
The reporter stared directly at him, trembling with fear.
He had never seen anyone with such a powerful aura.
As Lu Ziyang approached, the reporter was already surrounded by bodyguards in black.
He knelt down with a thud. "I'm so sorry, sir. I was presumptuous. I shouldn't have followed you, and I especially shouldn't have taken pictures of Miss Song! I know I was wrong. I'm willing to give you the camera and memory card. Please let me go. I'll never do it again!"
The reporter kowtowed repeatedly, offering up his camera and memory card with both hands.
Assistant Ah Xuan took it and handed it to Lu Ziyang.
Lu Ziyang fiddled with the memory card. "Who sent you?"
"No one sent me. I saw the news this morning and wanted to get an exclusive, so I've been following Ms. Song!"
Lu Ziyang stepped forward slowly, his leather shoes stepping on the reporter's hand. He squatted down, his clear peach blossom eyes filled with murderous intent.
"I'll give you one more chance. Who sent you?"
The reporter screamed in pain, insisting, "I really wanted to come here myself. I'm sorry, sir, I will never do it again."
Lu Ziyang sneered, "Ah Xuan, chop off his hand."
Ah Xuan nodded respectfully: "Yes."
The reporter was terrified, struggling and yelling, "No! I'm telling the truth, I really want an exclusive! I've already given you the camera and the report! What do you want to hear?!"
He tried to pull his hand back.
But Lu Ziyang stomped on him tightly, and the more he struggled, the more his skin was rubbed raw.
Within seconds, it was a bloody mess.
At this moment, Ah Xuan pulled out a dagger and swung it directly at the reporter's wrist without the slightest hesitation.
"ah!"
From the parking lot came the reporter's bloodcurdling screams, like a pig being slaughtered.
The sharp dagger fell heavily, embedding itself in the ground next to the reporter's wrist.
Ah Xuan said awkwardly, "Oops, it's crooked. Let me do it again."
The dagger was raised high once more.
"It's Zhou Min!!!"
The reporter roared, his voice filled with intense fear.
"It was Zhou Min, the wife of the chairman of the Song Group, who ordered me to keep a close eye on Miss Song. I was just doing my job for money; I didn't intend to make things difficult for anyone. Please, let me go. I'm willing to give you everything I photographed. If Miss Song wants compensation, I can do everything I can to do so! Please don't chop off my hand, I beg you!"
The reporter lay on the ground, terrified, and burst into tears.
Lu Ziyang withdrew his leg.
The reporter immediately struggled to get up and tried to run away.
He was restrained by the bodyguards again.
He said calmly, "Take off your clothes."
The reporter was puzzled.
Ah Xuan said, "If you want to leave here alive, do as our boss says."
The reporter was trembling.
After hesitating for a few seconds, despite her reluctance, she obediently took off all her clothes.
Sure enough, there was another memory card hidden in her underwear.
This is the real photograph he took.
Ah Xuan looked at him incredulously, stepped forward and punched him hard, "You actually dared to hide!"
The reporter was struck in the temple, foamed at the mouth, rolled his eyes, and fainted.
He picked up the memory card from the ground and handed it to Lu Ziyang. "Boss, what should we do with it?"
"Destroy it, and clean up the site as well, including the surveillance footage."
"And what about him?"
Lu Ziyang hesitated for a moment, not wanting to cause trouble for Song Nuan, and said in a deep voice, "Wake her up, give her a good warning, and throw her into the nearby vegetable market."
Ah Xuan nodded: "Yes."
The black-clad bodyguards behind him each performed their duties.
Lu Ziyang then slowly walked towards the car.
Ah Xuan followed behind him.
"Have the security facilities in the community been set up?"
Ah Xuan: "The property management and security departments have all been replaced with bodyguards who have been professionally trained by the group. There are hundreds of people stationed in the community. They will never let Ms. Song have any mishaps. You can rest assured."
"Don't let her find out."
"yes!"
Inside the car.
Song Nuan was afraid of being photographed by reporters, so she hid under the car seat and dared not show her face.
From afar, one could hear screams as if a pig were being slaughtered.
She was incredibly curious; how could something as simple as disposing of photography equipment have resulted in such a terrible mess?
Lu Ziyang is so heavy-handed, he might have killed someone.
She couldn't resist peeking out.
The car door clicked open.
Lu Ziyang appeared at the car door.
She asked anxiously, "Lu Ziyang, you're back! Is everything cleaned up?"
He smiled casually, "He ran away as soon as I got there. I took the memory card and the camera and destroyed them. It's okay. Get out of the car, I'll take you home."
"Then who was screaming just now?" Song Nuan asked suspiciously.
Is it really as simple as he says?
"Me, me," a head popped out from the side, "He hit my hand when he swung the camera, and it hurt so much I screamed. He's a grown man, and he's so unpredictable!"
It was only then that she noticed there was another person there; the faint bloodstains on his wounds indicated that he wasn't lying.
Song Nuan asked, "And who is this?"
Lu Ziyang explained, "Ah Xuan, my friend, will be in charge of your safety during your stay here. He will ensure that no reporters will bother you again."
Song Nuan looked Ah Xuan up and down.
He was around twenty years old, wore black-rimmed glasses, and had a refined and scholarly demeanor.
Just one set of clothes is worth more than Lu Ziyang earning by working as a hostess at a club for a month.
How could he possibly have such a friend?
Something's not right, it's getting increasingly wrong.
