Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Team Leader Liao was surprisingly unable to pull the whip out of Huo Yao’s hand. Also, she remained seated in her chair without moving the slightest. Despite how slim her arms were, her hand seemed unusually powerful.

Team Leader Liao was instantly startled. “You…”

Before he was able to finish his sentence, he made eye contact with Huo Yao’s cold eyes and instantly lost his words. He was incapable of making a single sound at this moment.

In an instant, he sensed his hand going numb as someone came towards him. His waist bumped into the table as he instinctively retreated a step and automatically lay prone on the table’s surface.

Huo Yao smiled. The moment she moved her hands gently, it seemed as though the whip had a life of its own and went into her hands. She pressed the whip handle against Team Leader Liao’s face so hard that it became contorted.

Everything became a blur for Team Leader Liao and there was a hopeless look in his eyes. The moment he got restricted by her, the only thought he had running through his head was powerlessness.

Huo Yao raised her foot and stepped on the chair gently with her head slightly lowered. She stared at Team Leader Liao intently with her beautiful eyes. She pulled her stray hair aside and laughed softly. “What’s wrong with women? 50% of the population are women, right? Didn’t a woman just beat you up all the same?”

The moment she finished her sentence airily, Team Leader Liao screamed.

There was no surveillance in the lockup. Also, it had excellent soundproofing. Regardless of all the commotion and screaming, no one could hear anything outside.

Team Leader Liao’s subordinate stood outside the entrance without noticing anything which was happening inside.

When the subordinate saw people coming over from the other end of the corridor five minutes later, he instantly looked worried.

He stood where he was without moving and patted the door behind him with his hand. However, none of the people inside heard him.

The captain of the Ministry of National Security’s law enforcement team came over hurriedly with his forehead covered with sweat. He asked anxiously. “Where is Liao Jianzong? What about Young Master Min’s friend?”

Team Leader Liao’s subordinate was startled by the captain’s reaction. He cautiously glanced at the man standing behind the captain. There wasn’t the slightest warmth coming from the man’s eyes.

The subordinate trembled and hurriedly lowered his head. “Yes, he is inside…”

The captain thought about Liao Jianzong’s personality and his blood pressure promptly skyrocketed until he nearly passed out. He kicked the subordinate hard. “You idiot! Open the door this instant!”

The subordinate bent over and hurriedly swiped the access card and opened the door, but it was impossible to open it. He became worried and trembled. “It’s locked. It’s locked from inside…”n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

The captain held his breath and looked at Min Yu. Sure enough, Min Yu looked furious. The captain instantly felt as though he was trapped in an ice cellar.

Liao Jianzong was such an idiot. How could he have done this?

Yang Yi thought about Team Leader Liao’s personality. He had taken Miss Huo into the lockup more than ten minutes ago. Yang Yi did not dare imagine the kind of torture he must have inflicted on Miss Huo by now.

He inhaled deeply before he pulled Team Leader Liao’s subordinate aside and kicked the metal door hard several times until the door finally opened.

The metal door opened with a loud clang. It seemed to leave the building in tremors.

Yang Yi tightened his fists. He did not dare to raise his head and look inside the room..
