Xu Yao just refused to admit that she was eager to leave. She didn't want to waste any more words with these people.
Seeing that she was about to close the door, Shen Jianyi had no choice but to leave the consulting room first.
But she wasn't going to leave so easily. Before leaving, she reminded Xu Yao, "Ms. Xu, if you want to break free from his control and keep your parents out of harm's way, come to the Lu Family Villa and find me. I'll help you."
Xu Yao didn't say a word.
She watched as Shen Jianyi said one last thing to her before getting in the car. "I'll be waiting for you, but my patience is limited. You'd better think it over."
There was a hint of threat in those words. Xu Yao stood there, her back straight, staring in that direction.
She stayed in that position for a long time, until the car completely disappeared from her sight.
Only then did Xu Yao walk in the opposite direction. She noticed that someone was following her not far behind.
Maybe that was why she couldn't get rid of the tail.
The person behind Shu Qing was like a madman. Xu Yao was almost driven crazy by him. She wondered how Shu Qing was doing now.
...
At the Lu Family Villa.
A black Maybach pulled up at the entrance. Lu Jinsheng opened the door and got out. He turned to look at the woman behind him and let out a sigh.
This trip wasn't a complete waste. At least they found out that Xu Yao was really being controlled.
"Your intuition is really accurate," he said.
He just had a hunch that Shu Qing would show up there, but he never expected that she would really appear in the consulting room.
However, Lu Jinsheng wasn't happy at all. This little clue meant nothing to him.
"We won't be able to find out much for now," Lu Jinsheng knew very well that this matter was far from simple. "We need more evidence."
So, he had to meet Liu Ying.
To see her, it would be best to investigate as Gun. That way, he wouldn't have to worry about being discovered.
This mission was going to take place tonight.
"We'll split up," Shen Jianyi had already planned everything. "I'll distract Hongxiu. Then you can go straight to Liu Ying and ask whatever you want."
Hearing this, Lu Jinsheng was a bit worried. It was mainly because Shen Jianyi was still injured.
Moreover, Hongxiu knew her other identity. If she couldn't defeat Hongxiu, there was a high chance that she would be taken back to the research lab.
"You'd better come with me. I'm worried about you going alone."
Hearing this, Shen Jianyi immediately retorted, "There's nothing to worry about. Even if I'm injured, she's still no match for me."
She said this very calmly. The determination in her eyes made it impossible for Lu Jinsheng to refuse.
In the end, he could only say, "Then be careful."
"Okay!"
When it was dead of night, it was time for them to act.
They had been waiting outside Director Liu's house early, looking for the right moment.
"Why hasn't Hongxiu come yet?" Shen Jianyi found it strange. This person was usually very fast. Why was she so slow today?
Just then.
They saw Hongxiu standing outside the villa in the moonlight. She looked up at the railing, as if she was going to jump over it.
Shen Jianyi had to keep her outside. She turned to look at the man and then nodded. "I'll go first. You wait and see."
"Be sure to be careful!"
After he finished speaking, Shen Jianyi left without hesitation.
Lu Jinsheng continued to wait there, wanting to see what was going on over there. It would be too late to go in after making sure that Shen Jianyi was safe.
On the other side.
Before Hongxiu could jump over, she turned around and saw a woman appear behind her.
The woman was wearing a red fox mask. She recognized who the person in front of her was at a glance.
"Ms. Red Fox, we meet again."
She knew her real identity but still called her this. Shen Jianyi sneered, "What a coincidence."
"What? Isn't Gun, who's always with you, here today?" Hongxiu thought that everyone would get the reward for this mission without having to fight for it, so she didn't intend to hurt the person in front of her.
However, Shen Jianyi had other plans.
Hongxiu, who was still thinking about how to jump over, suddenly felt a weight on her shoulder.
She turned around and saw Shen Jianyi gripping her shoulder tightly, as if she was about to start a fight.
"What are you doing?"
The woman under the mask curled her lips into a smile and easily knocked her to the ground.
Part of the reason was that Hongxiu was caught off guard. She didn't even know what had happened. Before she could react, she was knocked down.
But she reacted quickly. She immediately stood up and took a few steps back.
"Are you crazy?"
Shen Jianyi's voice was cold, without any special treatment. "Haven't you been looking for me and trying to catch me? I'm giving you this chance today. Let's see if you're up to it."
She knew very well that the woman in front of her couldn't stand being provoked. A few words were enough to make her lose her mind.
Sure enough, Hongxiu was getting impatient.
"Red Fox, are you looking for death?" She took out a long knife from her waist and stabbed at the woman.
The other woman was very fast and quickly dodged. Shen Jianyi held the dagger in her hand. As she expected.
"Whether I'm looking for death or not depends on whether you can kill me today."
There was almost nothing but mockery in her tone. Hongxiu naturally couldn't stand it. She had never suffered such humiliation before.
The two of them fought together. Hongxiu even forgot that she had a mission to complete.
At this moment.
Lu Jinsheng had already put on his mask and sneaked into Director Liu's house.
He had observed before. Director Liu wasn't home tonight. There was only Liu Ying, a few bodyguards and maids in the house.
After determining the location of the bedroom, he quickly climbed up to the second floor and quietly opened the window of the bedroom balcony.
Now Lu Jinsheng and Liu Ying were only separated by a curtain.
He carefully lifted the curtain. There was only Liu Ying sleeping in the room.
Then, Lu Jinsheng walked over very quickly.
In the darkness.
The woman sleeping soundly in the bed didn't realize that danger was approaching.
Lu Jinsheng walked to the bedside table and saw a photo frame on it. The photo inside was a group photo of Liu Ying and his mother.
He reached out and touched his mother's face. After all these years, her appearance hadn't changed. She was still as young as before. But why didn't she recognize him?
Just as Lu Jinsheng was about to put down the photo frame, the woman in the bed woke up. She stared at him with wide eyes.
