The thirteen Hidden Guards of the Su Family, all under her command, had been completely dispatched by her.
Lu Qing then said to her, "I need to go there myself."
Qin Miaomiao immediately refused him:
"No, it’s too dangerous."
"If you want your Ninth Uncle to return safely, I must go. Otherwise, we may lose both people and assets."
In this world, there are almost no truly honorable people.
To them, Qin Miaomiao likely still didn’t mean much.
"At least they’ll still show a bit of respect."
Qin Miaomiao reached out and hugged him, "Honey, I can’t let this matter put you in harm’s way!"
And just as the two were caught in an unending discussion, Qin Miaomiao received another call from the assassin organization. They provided coordinates, instructing her to personally take a helicopter to the designated location.
The coordinates they provided were the same as those previously obtained by Little Fourth using advanced hacker technology to intercept the signals!
Lu Qing said resolutely, "I’ll go."
"No, this has nothing to do with you. Why would you go?"
Lu Qing looked at her, a trace of dark resolve flickering in his eyes, "Your matters are my matters. Are you saying this has nothing to do with me?"
"There’s no ’but.’ You’re just a woman. This situation has long gone beyond what you can handle, so I’ll take care of it entirely. You stay home and wait."
Qin Miaomiao lowered her head. She could see Lu Qing had made up his mind and knew that no matter what she said, he wouldn’t accept it. So, she said no more.
Yet, when he was about to leave, she kissed him goodbye and leaned in close to his ear to say:
Before Lu Qing could react, his arm suddenly felt a sharp pain—she had used a tranquilizer on him!
The drug was potent. Shocked, Lu Qing stared at her as she kissed his forehead and whispered:
"Honey, stay home and wait for me. Whatever grievance you have, let’s settle it when I come back, okay?"
She instructed Little Sixth and Little Seventh to carry him to the bed, then said to them:
"Don’t follow me. Just take good care of him."
Little Sixth and Little Seventh exchanged glances, a faint grin on their lips:
"Young Madam, when Lieutenant General Lu assigned us to you, he only said one thing: if anything happens to you, we won’t survive."
"Lu Qing won’t blame you. I don’t need you risking your lives following me."
Little Seventh stepped forward and firmly said, "Young Madam, from the moment we became your bodyguards, one thing was set in stone—our mission is to protect you, unwavering till death."
Qin Miaomiao understood that no matter what she said, she wouldn’t persuade them. She was out of tranquilizers.
She sighed, "Even if this trip is extremely dangerous, you’re still going to follow me?"
When Lu Qing woke up, it was already past evening. The drug’s effect was supposed to last over five hours, but his body naturally resisted medications, allowing him to wake up two hours early. Where did Qin Miaomiao get such a potent tranquilizer?
A cold glint appeared in his eyes. The boss was sitting nearby, and as soon as he woke up, she flirtatiously flicked her hair and smiled:
"Young Master Lu, awake?"
"Young Madam, she’s on the helicopter right now. She’s probably about to arrive at that island."
"Ninth Uncle and Xiao Chen are definitely not on that island."
The boss’s lips curved slightly, "Indeed, I know that." Thɪs chapter is updatᴇd by 𝓷𝓸𝓿𝓮𝓵~𝕗𝕚𝕣𝕖~𝙣𝙚𝙩
Lu Qing said coolly, "Have you locked down the correct location yet?"
"Yes, but rescuing them won’t be so straightforward."
