"Splash!"
A bucket of cold water was poured on Zhuang Yan. It was still the dead of winter, and without heating, Zhuang Yan's body inevitably began to shiver.
"Brother, you should just say something."
"In this freezing weather, I've already tolerated being doused with buckets of cold water, so why are you doing this?"
A burly man in a down jacket smiled, took out a cigarette, and lit it with a lighter.
Meanwhile, another burly man was preparing a high-pressure water gun, presumably to "treat" Zhuang Yan later.
"You, all of you, kill me!"
"I, I, no, I won't, say it!"
Zhuang Yan's facial muscles were twitching, and he couldn't even speak a complete sentence, but he still clenched his teeth tightly.
He knew that if he became a traitor, his family would definitely be killed by the young master.
No matter what, for the sake of their families, they must not speak out, even if it means death.
"Fine, then don't blame me. Let's see how long you can hold out."
He took a drag of his cigarette, then threw the butt on the ground, picked up the high-pressure water gun, and aimed it directly at Zhuang Yan's head.
"stop!"
A delicate shout rang out, and Mo Ye opened the door, causing the two burly men to immediately stop what they were doing.
Then Wen Wan and Chen Luo led everyone in, with Bai Shiya following closely behind Chen Luo.
"Alright, you guys stay at the door."
"yes!"
The two burly men immediately retreated, while Wen Wan looked at Bai Shiya behind Chen Luo.
"The rest is up to you, Shiya."
Upon hearing the name Shi Ya, Zhuang Yan, who had been hanging his head and gasping for breath, suddenly looked up.
"You! How could it be you?"
Upon seeing Bai Shiya, Zhuang Yan trembled even more violently.
"It's me, Zhuang Yan. Long time no see."
Bai Shiya looked at Zhuang Yan in front of her and couldn't help but feel a little emotional.
Zhuang Yan, one of the four action team leaders under Wen Shao, can be considered a man of outstanding ability and loyalty.
Back when Bai Shiya was still working for Wen Shao, the two had collaborated and thus had some connection.
"Bai Shiya! How dare you betray the young master! Aren't you afraid...?"
Are you afraid Wen Shao will kill my family?
Upon hearing this, Zhuang Yan was stunned, staring at Bai Shiya's murderous gaze.
"Zhuang Yan, do you think you can save your family's lives by not speaking up now?"
"That's too naive. You've underestimated Wen Shao's ruthlessness."
Bai Shiya pulled up her sleeve, revealing several scars on her arm.
"I was in Hangzhou, and after the operation failed, I was captured. I thought that if I didn't talk, I could save my mother's life, but what happened?"
At this point, Bai Shiya's tone suddenly turned cold, even colder than the biting wind.
"As a result, less than two days after I was captured, he sent men to kill my mother. If it weren't for Premier Wen's timely intervention, my mother would have died at his hands."
"No! Impossible!"
"Young Master wouldn't do this to me! I've been loyal to him all these years, risking my life for him!"
A cold smile crept onto Bai Shiya's lips.
"Haven't I done so much for him, been loyal to him, and been his woman? And what was the result?"
"No! You're lying to me! You must be lying!"
"You still don't believe me, huh? Fine, then I'll let you make a call back and ask your brother."
Bai Shiya took out her phone and asked Zhuang Yan to give her a phone number.
Logically, Zhuang Yan shouldn't have given away his teammates' phone numbers, but at this moment, he was clearly persuaded by Bai Shiya, and his worries about his family's safety caused him to panic.
Bai Shiya dialed Qiu Xuan's number and turned on speakerphone.
"Hello!"
"Boss? You're still alive? You escaped?"
Qiu Xuan's voice, full of surprise, rang out, and Zhuang Yan vaguely sensed that something was amiss.
"Yes, I escaped."
"Okay! Boss, tell me where you are, and my brothers and I will come pick you up."
"There's no rush yet."
Zhuang Yan looked up at Bai Shiya, hesitated for a moment, and then asked the question.
"What are they going to do with me now that I was captured?"
Upon hearing this, Qiu Xuan on the other end seemed very angry, and he took several deep breaths.
"It makes me so angry just thinking about it!"
"As soon as I heard you were captured, I went to talk to that woman Tang Xiwei and asked her not to report it, but she wouldn't listen and still insisted on reporting it."
“Our brothers who stayed in the capital have already heard that the young master has sent people to harm your wife and children.”
"We're on our way to Beijing right now. Don't worry, boss, we'll do everything in our power to rescue your family!"
"Boss? Are you listening, boss?"
Qiu Xuan's voice stopped abruptly, and Bai Shiya pressed the hang-up button.
"So? Do you believe me now?"
A look of pity appeared in Bai Shiya's eyes.
"I have already asked Premier Wen to send people from Beijing to provide assistance, but I cannot guarantee whether they will arrive in time."
Zhuang Yan remained silent, his eyes blazing with astonishing fury.
After an unknown amount of time, Zhuang Yan finally spoke.
"Thanks."
"Ask whatever you want to know."
Zhuang Yan let his hands fall limply, clearly his psychological defenses had been completely breached.
Chen Luo stepped forward, glanced at Bai Shiya, and Bai Shiya nodded.
"Alright, Brother Zhuang, please tell us."
"What kind of arrangements does Wen Shao have in Jiangling City right now?"
Zhuang Yan looked at Chen Luo and shook his head.
"I'm sorry, I don't know much about this. All I know is that Wen Shao has sent his elite troops this time."
"Moreover, it is said that in another half month, Wen Shaohui will personally come here to take charge and direct the operation."
“As members of the action team, we generally don’t know the decisions made by the decision-makers, so the information I have is very limited.”
Hearing this, Chen Luo frowned, and Bai Shiya beside him also gave an affirmative answer.
"This is Wen Shao's consistent style; he won't let the action team know too much."
"Okay, let me ask you a different question. Who is the main person in charge of directing things here on site right now?"
Upon hearing this question, a murderous glint flashed in Zhuang Yan's eyes.
"The decision-making here now is mainly done by Wen Shao's women, with Ning Xi as the highest decision-maker and Tang Xiwei as the executive commander."
"It was Tang Xiwei who gave the order to attack your company's top management."
Upon hearing the name Tang Xiwei, Chen Luo was slightly taken aback.
Wen Wan also walked over at this moment, looked at Chen Luo's expression, and slowly spoke.
"That woman is really persistent!"
"It seems Wen Shao really values her."
"However, this time, she can't escape!"
