Nolan lazily propped up his head, sounding somewhat impatient as he asked, “Qin Zhixiu, when will your people arrive?”

He saved Qin Zhixiu not out of the goodness of his heart, but because he went for his abilities. He and Qin Lu had a grudge, but dealing with him alone posed some difficulty. To keep Qin Lu under control, leveraging strength against him was much more effective than exerting his own effort.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Upon hearing Nolan’s words, Qin Zhixiu frowned, a hint of inadvertent ruthlessness flashing in his eyes. However, now he was somewhat of a captive and had to rely on Nolan’s protection for the time being, so he could only temporarily suppress his temper. Ignoring An Muyao lying on the ground, he sat opposite her and spoke, “It will take a few more days.”

Yesterday, he had already called his subordinates. However, they were all in M country, so coming over wouldn’t be so easy. Even if a few individuals came over, it wouldn’t be useful; they wouldn’t be able to have any impact on Qin Lu. Qin Zhixiu was also intelligent. From yesterday’s events, he had realized that Nan Yan, that woman, was Qin Lu’s Achilles’ heel. However…

After seeing Nan Yan’s performance yesterday, he also realized that Nan Yan was no ordinary woman, and targeting her wouldn’t be easy. Nolan snorted coldly, “Are your subordinates all snails?”

A few days? In that time, he could have circled the Earth in an airplane. Qin Zhixiu’s expression was not pleasant. “Mr. Nolan, I’m even more eager than you to get out of this situation as soon as possible.”

Nolan actually agreed with this statement, though he hadn’t expected Qin Zhixiu, one of the Seven Saints of the Divine Temple, to be so crass.

He was looking for a partner; he didn’t find another incompetent one, did he? In his mind, Nolan clicked his tongue. If he was incompetent, he might as well be a pawn.

“You better not try anything funny.” Nolan casually sat up straight, then with a flick of his right hand, a vial of potion pierced Qin Zhixiu’s body when he tried to dodge upon sensing something was amiss.

Qin Zhixiu’s movements slowed for a moment as the vial struck his arm, and he watched helplessly as the potion injected into his body. No matter how fast he pulled, it couldn’t match the speed of the injection.

“What is this?” Qin Zhixiu held the emptied micro syringe, almost exploding in anger as he demanded Nolan.

“To ensure our cooperation is more secure, a little trick is necessary. If you disagree, then be prepared to die.” Nolan’s tone was sinister as he uttered these life- threatening words.

Qin Zhixiu was furious, but he tightly suppressed his anger in the end, forcing a smile that didn’t reach his eyes. “What are you saying? Since you saved my life, I will naturally cooperate with you wholeheartedly.”

“Moreover, Qin Lu is my mortal enemy, so I’m eager to cooperate with you.” Qin Zhixiu clenched his fists, his face full of genuine resentment.

“Very well, that’s better.” Nolan pointed to the food on the table. “Don’t be polite, eat up. Let me know if you want anything tomorrow, and I’ll try to get it for you.”

Qin Zhixiu took a deep breath, suppressed his emotions, and expressionlessly opened the lunchbox in front of him..
