The man who had been kicked to the side suddenly woke up, covering the kicked area as he turned over and sat up, "Who? Who kicked me?"
He looked up to meet a pair of eyes as sharp as blades; the man’s presence was so intimidating that it made one’s heart tremble.
At this moment, the man’s gaze was fixed on the woman on the ground. With just one glance, Mu Xingfeng turned his head and strode over to Lin Ruonan.
"Tell me, where did you take An Ran?"
Lin Ruonan’s face was filled with confusion. She glanced at the woman on the ground in the distance.
The woman had already raised her head and, seeing herself surrounded by a crowd, screamed in fright.
At the same time, everyone could clearly see her face; she was a minor third-tier actress.
While everyone breathed a sigh of relief, their hearts grew even heavier as they looked towards Mu Xingfeng.
"Xingfeng, I really don’t know what you’re talking about."
"You know, Lin Ruonan. I already told you not to cross my bottom line. Hand over An Ran now," Mu Xingfeng roared. It had been almost half an hour since he realized An Ran was missing. If he wasn’t sure before, now he was certain—An Ran had been taken.
And this was the Lin family, heavily guarded. The only ones who could take someone away without anyone noticing were the Lin family members.
Even though that scene just now wasn’t An Ran, it made him feel like he’d walked through the gates of hell. What was his little girl going through right now? He couldn’t bear to think about it; he just wanted to find her as soon as possible.
The commotion had already alarmed several elders in the main house; Lin Weidong and his wife, Mu Zhenzong and his wife, and Shen Zheng and his wife hurried over.
From a distance, they saw the chaotic scene before them.
"Xingfeng, I really don’t know. I’ve been with Brother the whole time. If you don’t believe me, ask him."
Lin Ruonan tried to explain to Mu Xingfeng, but a flicker of unease passed through her eyes. Internally, she wondered who could be behind this.
"Second Brother, Ruonan has been with me the entire time. You’re being too hasty in accusing her," Gu Haoyu stood behind Lin Ruonan, defending her.
"Is that so?" Mu Xingfeng asked back, his eyes never leaving Lin Ruonan.
Who was he? Even the most stubborn drug dealers would confess under his interrogation. Lin Ruonan, being upright and not good at disguising herself, had her guilty look captured by him. Even if she wasn’t the one, she knew the truth.
In a flash, Mu Xingfeng moved like a shadow. When he appeared in front of Lin Ruonan again, a dark gun barrel was pressed against her forehead.
The guards who had been standing nearby looked at their empty gun holsters in bewilderment, staring at the armed man in disbelief.
"Tell me, where did you take An Ran?" Mu Xingfeng’s cold voice was bone-chilling, and the aura around him was terrifyingly icy.
"Second Brother, what are you doing?"
"Xingfeng, put the gun down!"
Gu Haoyu and the approaching Mu Zhenzong both spoke out simultaneously, but Mu Xingfeng didn’t even spare them a glance.
"Are you going to talk or not?"
"Click," the safety was disengaged.
"You brat, what are you trying to do?" Mu Zhenzong yelled angrily.
He knew how much Mu Xingfeng valued that girl; he thought it was just because she once saved his life. It made sense for him to care more about her. But he never expected his feelings for her to run this deep.
"Sis, if you know something, tell Second Brother," Lin Junyang urged from the side.
"Ha," Lin Ruonan let out a cold laugh, the sound tinged with helpless sorrow...
