After the doctor injected Yan Ruo with the medicine, Lu Zhi ordered everyone in the room to leave.

She was the only one left inside.

Then, Lu Zhi asked Qi Feng to escort the remaining bodyguards over.

After some coercion and persuasion, he ordered their leader to call Yuan Luochen.

He told him that everything was going smoothly according to plan.

However, Yan Ruo was in trouble.

He had to come over personally.

Yuan Luochen asked coldly, “What is she up to this time?”

“Miss Yan accidentally injected herself with the drug. She’s going crazy now. We can’t stop her.” Under Lu Zhi’s coercion, the bodyguard captain lied.

Yuan Luochen cursed, “A bunch of trash! Tie her up. I’ll be right there.”

“Yes.”

After the call ended, the captain of the bodyguards cautiously asked, “Mr. Lu, can you let us go now? We are just following orders. The mastermind is Mr. Yuan. If you don’t let us go, he won’t spare us when he comes later.”

Yuan Luochen was ruthless.

They were only working for him and didn’t want to lose their lives at all.

Lu Zhi’s eyes swept across the crowd and said, “If I let you go, won’t Yuan Luochen know that there’s a problem? Stay here and do as I say. I’ll guarantee your safety. However, if you dare to escape on your own or inform Yuan Luochen… I won’t just spare you, 1’11 go after everyone in your families!”

Hearing this, who would still dare to run?

Everyone fell into a deathly silence.

Lu Zhi snorted coldly in his heart.

These people were all bullies and feared the strong. To intimidate them, one had to be even more ruthless than Yuan Luochen.

Otherwise, they would secretly send Yuan Luochen a signal.

Ruining his plans.

In the future, it would be difficult to set up a trap to lure Yuan Luochen out.

Time passed bit by bit…

Finally, Yuan Luochen arrived at the hotel.

He asked in a hurry, “Where’s Yan Ruo?”

“On the top floor of the hotel.”

Yuan Luochen cursed in his heart. She always pulled him back at the most crucial moment.

When this matter was over, he would definitely find an opportunity to teach her a lesson.

The two of them took the elevator to the top floor.

Yuan Luochen inadvertently glanced at the bodyguard’s reflection on the elevator and asked, “Are you very hot? Why are you sweating so much?”

“Yes, I’m a little hot.”

The bodyguard replied, “I wanted to pick up Sir just now, so I ran a little.”

Yuan Luochen frowned.

He kept feeling that something was wrong…

However, he only wanted to take Yan Ruo away as soon as possible, so he didn’t pursue the matter.

The elevator finally reached the top floor.

Yuan Luochen and the bodyguard didn’t walk far.

He suddenly stopped and asked, “Where are the people who often follow you?”

“I sent them to stay and take care of Miss Yan.”

The bodyguard replied.

“Is that so?” Yuan Luochen asked but didn’t say anything else.

The bodyguard felt uneasy and urged, “Mr. Yuan, you should hurry up. If this drags on for too long, I’m afraid Miss Yan won’t be able to hold on.”

Yuan Luochen didn’t walk forward. Instead, he took out his phone and dialed Yan Ruo’s number.

Beep beep beep…

After a long busy tone, no one answered.

“Mr. Yuan, Miss Yan doesn’t have her phone with her.”

The bodyguard had just started speaking.

Yuan Luochen suddenly hung up the phone and smirked as he said, “You dare to play tricks on me? You must be seeking death.”

As he spoke, he kicked the bodyguard in front of him.

He quickly turned around and retreated into the elevator.

He pressed the button to close the door.

The bodyguard was in pain and wanted to catch up to him.

However, before he could make a move, several closed doors of the adjacent rooms opened.

Ah Man and Qi Feng led the group. One team rushed to the elevator while the other ran to the emergency exit.

At the same time.

The bodyguards in the lobby downstairs also moved quickly.

Yuan Luochen pressed all the floor buttons on the elevator, so they wouldn’t know which floor he would exit.

When the elevator stopped on the fifth floor, he walked out.

Then, he followed the fire escape and ran to the third floor.

Noticing that someone was chasing him from the floor above, he jumped over the window without thinking and wanted to escape.

Unexpectedly, just as his body passed through the window…

The surrounding lights instantly converged on him.

At the same time, a net opened up underneath.

They waited for him to fall into it.

Yuan Luochen raised his hand to block the light.

During this short interval, Lu Zhi walked over from the stairs with his men. He stood by the window and looked at him coldly. He said, “I knew you would escape from here. That’s why I kept a trick up my sleeve..”
