Revenge Upon Return

Lin Fan's actions truly terrified his other teammates.

They rushed up and grabbed Lin Fan. "Captain, what exactly happened?!"

"Captain, say something! Did something happen to Lin Chen?"

As Lin Fan's teammates, they all knew Lin Chen.

He was also an exceptionally gifted genius.

Whenever they had time off, they had gone to visit Lin Chen together.

Seeing Lin Fan like this now, they could not help but worry.

Lin Fan wore a Pain Mask, speaking word by word in a trembling voice. "My... my little brother was killed..."

The words exploded like thunder.

Every one of the others wore a face full of disbelief.

"Damn it, who was it? Who the hell did this!"

The burly man responsible for shielding the team, codenamed Tank, flexed his trembling muscles and roared angrily.

"How dare they kill Lin Chen? This debt of blood must be repaid! Captain, who did it?!"

The others were equally filled with righteous indignation and echoed him one after another.

They were brothers-in-arms, so naturally they would not stand by with folded arms.

Lin Fan forcibly suppressed his rage and shook his head. "The higher-ups didn't say. It's more like they didn't dare say it. But it should be easy enough to find out!"

"Brothers, I'm going back. I must get an explanation for Lin Chen's death!"

"Captain, don't be hasty. You should apply for leave first. We're still in the middle of a mission. If you forcefully leave the team, the higher-ups may punish you severely!"

Lin Fan simply refused to care. With a sweep of his hand, he said, "Apply? Those people targeting me will definitely hold up my application. I can't wait!"

"My biological little brother is dead. How am I supposed to endure this? I'm going back. I'm going to investigate immediately!"

"No matter who it is, I'll tear him into ten thousand pieces!"

Lin Fan resolutely turned around, utterly decisive.

His teammates grabbed him one after another, wanting to stop him from acting on impulse.

"Don't mind me. If anything happens, I'll bear it all myself. The Vice Captain will lead the squad for now. I'll handle my own affairs!"

His teammates still wanted to stop him. "Captain, being anxious won't help. At least wait until the Vice Captain returns!"

"She may have a better way!"

Their Vice Captain was also the core of the team. Lin Fan possessed high combat power, while Vice Captain Jiang Huaiyue was equivalent to their strategist.

Moreover, they all knew that the Captain and Vice Captain were separated by only a layer of window paper.

They had feelings for each other. If Jiang Huaiyue learned of this, she certainly would not let Lin Fan act recklessly.

"No more talk!"

Lin Fan did not want to explain further. He stomped down hard, crushing a huge pit into the earth beneath his feet.

His figure had already shot forward at top speed!

His teammates hurriedly chased after him.

It had to be said that certain people among the higher-ups had always been deliberately hunting for Lin Fan's mistakes.

Under these circumstances, Lin Fan forcefully leaving during a mission would be his greatest fault.

If someone made an issue of it, he could very likely be stripped of his military status!

Just as Lin Fan was about to leave the team, in Chicago, America.

Inside a certain villa.

A young woman in a nightgown stood before a floor-to-ceiling window, staring blankly at the night view outside and the flashing neon lights.

Because of the time difference, it was still deep into the night here.

The woman's chest rose and fell, her deep cleavage and proud figure laid bare.

One hand was clenched into a fist against her lips. Her brows alternately furrowed and relaxed, while her gaze drifted aimlessly.

Every movement showed the unease in her heart.

Just moments ago, Liu Ruyan had dreamed that her entire clan had been slaughtered to the last.

Startled awake, she immediately tried to contact the Liu Family in Zhonghai.

Yet not a single call went through.

It had to be known that it was still daytime in the Dragon Kingdom.

If one person could not be reached, perhaps they were busy. But if no one could be reached, there was a problem.

This made her even more worried!

Having weathered great storms and towering waves, she rarely panicked.

As the Young Lady of the Liu Family, she was a woman as cunning as a demon.

With her outstanding looks, extraordinary intelligence, and formidable business ability, she had been hailed in Zhonghai as one of the leading figures of the younger generation.

Yet her family had always believed that a woman only needed to marry well, and they did not support her showing her face in public.

Thus, she chose to leave the Dragon Kingdom and seek her fortune in what she considered a broader world.

In truth, she had indeed made a name for herself.

She was now the president of a Financial Chamber of Commerce here.

Returning home would count as bringing glory to her ancestors, leaving the Liu Family with nothing to say.

But this had happened at precisely such a moment, leaving her At a Loss.

Just moments ago, she had urgently ordered an investigation. As she waited for news, her mind had never once calmed.

Knock... knock...

A moment later, knocking sounded, shattering the silence in the room.

It also pulled Liu Ruyan back from her daze into reality.

"Come in!"

As she spoke, she hurried over herself, the worry in her eyes abruptly turning sharp.

The person who entered was a woman with an anxious expression.

"P-President..."

"Speak. What happened?"

The woman swallowed. "The Liu Family... is gone..."

"At noon in Zhonghai, the Liu Family went to your Sister's wedding at the Dragon Court Seven Star Hotel. After that, not a single member of the Liu Family left. It was as though they vanished from the face of the earth..."

"According to... according to the people in Zhonghai, they all died..."

Boom! Liu Ruyan felt thunder explode inside her mind.

Her dream had not come from nowhere. Something really had happened.

"How could this happen? How could this happen..."

Liu Ruyan suddenly collapsed to the ground, her face deathly pale.

"Who did it? Who did it?!"

The woman hurriedly said, "It should have been the man who held the wedding with your Sister. He is the most suspicious one. The one named Shen Wuxiao..."

"Shen Wuxiao..." Horror flooded Liu Ruyan's eyes.

How could Liu Ruyan not know Shen Wuxiao?

If it was Shen Wuxiao, then even if she wanted revenge, there was nothing she could do.

For Shen Wuxiao to kill her would take no more than an Understated word.

Even if she wanted to use economic means to suppress him in the field she excelled in.

In his eyes, it would be like a child taking out ten cents to buy a spicy strip.

But this was the hatred of extermination. How could she not avenge it!

"Book me the fastest flight. I'm returning to the country, immediately!"

After a brief moment of shock, Liu Ruyan immediately adjusted her mindset.

She was not someone who easily admitted defeat. If there was no opportunity, she would create one.

Even if she had to use her beauty to get close to him.

If that truly did not work, she would offer up her body and kill Shen Wuxiao while entwined with him!

At that moment, Shen Wuxiao, the man at the center of it all, was staying in a Bay Villa in Zhonghai, diligently polishing away at work.

Everyone had different ways of venting.

Some people ran, some wept bitterly, and some belted out a high note higher than anyone else in the world!

For three days and three nights, in the dead of night~~~ Keep dancing, never stop!

Shen Wuxiao's way of venting, however, was polishing.

An hour and a half later, Shen Wuxiao flipped over and sat up.

He let out a breath and waved at the Mature Woman with her bewitching charm and long legs like snowy jade, signaling her to leave.

She seemed accustomed to it. Her face flushed red as she happily gathered her things and swiftly left the room!

Strictly speaking, this Bay Villa was Shen Wuxiao's temporary fire station.

Whenever his inner fire flared too high, he came here to put it out.

As for those inside, they had all been carefully selected.

They existed solely to help put out fires.

They were all tactful as well. Being with such an extraordinarily handsome man while receiving generous compensation—there was nothing better than that.

Nor did anyone dare cross the line. Otherwise, even being kicked out would be considered lucky.
