With a loud bang, the door was abruptly kicked open, interrupting Qi Shuningâs words.
A group of people burst in, their presence overpowering.
Qi Shuning, with a guilty conscience, let out a scream and hid behind her mentor.
âWhat are you doing? This is a hospital ward. Donât disturb the patientâs rest,â the mentor frowned, clearly displeased. âDonât you know patients need peace and quiet?â
âA patient?â JIANG Shuihan chuckled, his demeanor still cultured but his voice icy. âShe is not a patient, sheâs a criminal. Take her away!â
Immediately, guards from the Thousand Army Alliance stepped forward, pulling Qi Shuning out of the bed.
Qi Shuningâs screams intensified, âDonât touch me! Get away! Go away!â
Her mentorâs expression changed drastically, âWhat criminal? Explain yourselves! Who are you people?â
JIANG Shuihan, without further explanation, took Qi Shuning away.
As they were leaving, they were blocked.
âMy apologies,â Chen Ying smiled politely. âThis person is wanted by our master, so please excuse us.â
JIANG Shuihan looked up.
In the instant their eyes met, both understood that the other was an evolved being.
Chen Yingâs smile didnât waver, and he didnât recoil from JIANG Shuihanâs imposing aura.
âFine,â JIANG Shuihan eventually stepped back, handing Qi Shuning over to Chen Ying. âI want a copy of the recording, otherwise, itâll be hard to explain to the lady.â
âCertainly,â Chen Ying secured Qi Shuning. âOur master wonât disappoint the Thousand Army Alliance, nor Miss Si.â n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Qi Shuning was completely bewildered.
She couldnât grasp what was happening and found herself bound and taken to a private hotel.
The hotel, secluded and tranquil by the sea, surrounded by the chirping of birds and fragrant flowers, seemed like a perfect place for convalescence.
Qi Shuning breathed a sigh of relief.
It appeared someone had come to her rescue.
The group that had barged into her hospital room had frightened her immensely.
However, her relief was short-lived.
Before she could take two steps, she was kicked onto a large balcony overlooking a scenic view.
This sea-view room had a balcony that opened directly to a swimming pool connecting to the sea.
Qi Shuningâs face turned deathly pale, her eyes widened, bloodshot with terror.
For she saw sharks.
Nine of them, circling around the balcony.
Chen Ying also noticed and curiously looked at Xi Jiang, âWhere did you get these?â
âFrom the Feng familyâs breeding,â Xi Jiang replied, throwing some meat into the water. âBorrowed from them. They havenât eaten for days and are starving.â âNot bad,â Chen Ying nodded approvingly. âYou do have some brains.â
Xi Jiang, furious, was about to fight Chen Ying.
Footsteps approached.
Both men bowed respectfully, âBrother Nine.â
Qi Shuning, trembling, looked up. Upon seeing the manâs face, she was stunned.
The so-called good-looking celebrities in the entertainment industry paled in comparison to the man before her.
The phrase âcaptivating all beingsâ was an understatement for him.
âBrother Nine, sheâs the one,â Chen Ying spoke. âShe sabotaged Miss Siâs safety belt. We have video evidence and witnesses. I was worried she might escape, so
I brought her here first.â
The temperature around seemed to drop noticeably.
Qi Shuning snapped back to reality, shivering, âNo, it wasnât me, I didnât do it! Youâve got the wrong person!â
Yu Xiheng finally looked up, his expression unreadable, and said slowly, âToss her in..â
