Chapter 1337 Inner Anxiety
Chapter 1337 Inner Anxiety
"Where is this place?" Jiang Mubai asked with a trembling voice.
The man did not answer, but walked straight to the factory gate. He took out a key and opened the rusty lock.
"Go in." the man said coldly.
Jiang Mubai was frightened, but she knew she had no choice. She took a deep breath and followed the man into the factory.
The interior of the factory was empty and dark, with abandoned machines and debris piled everywhere. The air was filled with a pungent musty smell that made people feel suffocated.
"What exactly do you want to do?" Jiang Mubai asked again, his tone full of vigilance.
The man stopped and turned to look at Jiang Mubai. He took off his sunglasses, revealing a pair of sinister eyes.
"What do I want to do?" The man sneered, "I want to know, who are you?"
Jiang Mubai's heart sank, she knew that her biggest secret had been revealed.
"I..." Jiang Mubai was about to explain when he suddenly heard footsteps coming from deep inside the factory. Then, a group of men in black emerged from the darkness and surrounded the two of them.
The man looked at Jiang Mubai who was surrounded, and a sinister smile appeared on his lips: "It seems that someone wants to know your identity more than me."
Jiang Mubai tightly gripped the dagger and glanced coldly at the men in black around her. She knew that tonight, she would face a life-and-death battle.
"Get started!" The man gave an order, and the men in black swarmed up and pounced on Jiang Mubai.
The cold light of the dagger flashed in the dim factory, and Jiang Mubai cleanly and neatly dealt with the two men in black who were in the front.
She moved swiftly, like an agile cheetah, shuttling between the men in black. Every move she made was precise and deadly. However, the men in black were numerous and well-trained, and Jiang Mubai gradually felt overwhelmed.
At this moment, the door of the factory was opened again, dazzling light shone in, and a group of new figures appeared at the door.
They were dressed in black combat uniforms and carried advanced weapons, which was completely different from the previous men in black.
"Stop!" The leading man gave an order, and the newly appeared people quickly joined the battle, but their target was not Jiang Mubai, but the men in black.
The three forces were fighting each other, and the scene became even more chaotic. Jiang Mubai took advantage of the chaos to retreat to the side and observe the situation. She keenly noticed that the new group of people did not seem to be coming for her, but their target was someone else.
A man in black took advantage of the chaos and tried to outflank Jiang Mubai from the side, but Jiang Mubai was prepared and dodged the attack by turning sideways, then subdued the man with a backhanded slash.
"Who are you?" Jiang Mubai asked sternly.
The man in black struggled, but couldn't break free from Jiang Mubai's grip: "J...save me..."
Jiang Mubai's heart was moved. Could this name be directed at her? "Who is J?"
The man in black groaned in pain and did not answer.
At this time, the newly appeared group of people had already controlled the situation. The previous men in black were either dead or escaped. The leading man walked up to Jiang Mubai and looked her up and down: "Are you Bai Ye?"
Jiang Mubai looked at him warily: "Who are you?"
"K asked me to pick you up." The man answered briefly.
Jiang Mubai was even more confused. Who was K? Why did these people mention someone she didn't know? "I don't know any K. Did you make a mistake?"
The man frowned, seeming a little impatient. "Where's the stuff?"
"What is that?" Jiang Mubai was confused.
The man grabbed Jiang Mubai's arm and said in a cold tone: "Don't play dumb, where is the chip?"
Chip? Jiang Mubai realized that what they were looking for was the target of tonight's operation, a chip that stored important secrets. This chip was hidden in her underwear.
Jiang Mubai calmly broke free from the man's grip and took a step back: "I don't know what you are talking about."
The man sneered and waved his hand. His men immediately surrounded him and said, "It seems that you won't cry until you see the coffin."
Jiang Mubai cursed in her heart, she was so unlucky tonight, she just escaped from the wolf's den, and fell into the tiger's den. She gripped the dagger tightly, ready to fight to the death.
At this moment, there was a burst of rapid brake sounds outside the factory, followed by a familiar voice: "Stop! Stop right there!"
Cheng Yunchuan? Why is he here? Jiang Mubai was full of doubts.
Cheng Yunchuan walked into the factory quickly, followed by several bodyguards. He saw Jiang Mubai surrounded at a glance, and his face suddenly became gloomy: "Who are you? What do you want to do?"
The leading man's face changed slightly when he saw Cheng Yunchuan: "Mr. Cheng, this is a matter between us and Miss Bai Ye, I hope you don't interfere."
"Bai Ye is my woman, and her affairs are my affairs." Cheng Yunchuan's tone was cold, with unquestionable majesty.
The man hesitated for a moment, but finally compromised: "Since Master Cheng said so, we will give you a favor. However, we must take the chip away."
Cheng Yunchuan sneered: "Chip? What chip? I don't know what you are talking about."
A cold light flashed in the man's eyes: "Mr. Cheng, are you going to go against us?"
"So what if I'm against you?" Cheng Yunchuan met the man's gaze without fear.
The atmosphere was tense and a big war was about to break out.
Jiang Mubai looked at the tense situation in front of her with mixed feelings. She didn't understand why Cheng Yunchuan suddenly appeared, and she didn't understand why he wanted to help her. Could it be that he really had feelings for her?
"Cheng Yunchuan!" Jiang Mubai was about to speak but was interrupted by Cheng Yunchuan.
"Don't talk, leave it to me. If you want to touch her, you have to get past me first!" Cheng Yunchuan looked at her gently, then turned to face the men in black, his eyes instantly becoming sharp.
Jiang Mubai's heart skipped a beat, and a warm current surged through her body. This man, knowing that her identity was suspicious, still chose to stand by her side and protect her. Could this be the power of love?
At this moment, the lights in the factory suddenly went out, and the entire space fell into darkness. In the chaos, Jiang Mubai felt someone grab her hand and pull her into a warm embrace.
"Don't be afraid, I'm here." Cheng Yunchuan whispered in her ear, his voice gentle but firm.
In the darkness, Jiang Mubai's heart beat faster and faster. She felt as if she was in a safe harbor, and all her fear and anxiety disappeared.
Suddenly, a gunshot broke the silence, and then the factory fell into chaos again.
The Qin family villa was brightly lit, and the luxurious crystal chandeliers illuminated the hall as if it were daytime. Cheng Yunchuan paced back and forth anxiously, his cell phone tightly held in his hand. Jiang Mubai's name was displayed on the screen, but no one answered the call.
"Damn it!" He cursed and threw his phone hard on the sofa. The soft leather sofa made a dull sound, but it did not relieve his inner anxiety.
