The aloof beauty always has weak legs; the crazy boss is too ruthless.

Chapter 66: He took her back to the Lin family.
In the next private room, Hua Yanran was still flipping through the pages of the signed contract, while Yan Song was video chatting with his wife Xin Ran at the end of the corridor, watching his lively son.

In one of the private rooms that had been locked from the inside, Lu Siqi was being held in Mu Sen's arms, and his flight suit was being removed from her body.

It hurt so much from his bite that Lu Siqi raised her hand to push his shoulder, "It hurts..."

Mu Sen wanted to hurt her, so he continued to open his teeth and bite her tender flesh, biting hard until the snow-white area below her collarbone was covered with his teeth marks. Only then did he look up at her and say, "You should be glad you got your period, otherwise I would have bitten you there!"

His face was refined and elegant, yet he uttered such vulgar words.

Lu Siqi's face flushed red instantly.

Seeing her face flushed, Mu Sen pulled up her clothes and buttoned them up for her. "Rest for a while. We'll head back to Hong Kong at three o'clock this afternoon."

……

After leaving the private room, Mu Sen went to the hallway and kept lighting cigarettes.

After smoking a few cigarettes, he remembered what Lu Siqi had said in the private room: "You don't need to worry about whether I will develop real feelings for you."

"We are from two different worlds, and we only came together by chance because of this mission."

"It's about fulfilling my desire to be a bad woman."

Doesn't this imply that even if he hadn't suggested they be friends with benefits, she would still seek out other men to fulfill her desires?

It was all just a coincidence that he stumbled upon it...

Ha ha……

What a lucky accident...

I brushed aside my chaotic emotions, threw away the half-finished cigarette and stubbed it out, then checked the time: 2:30.

Back in the private room, I saw that Hua Yanran had already signed the contract.

Yan Song put away the contract. "Miss Hua will be a key female artist cultivated by our Sheng Tang International from now on. In order to improve your acting skills faster, our company will send you to South Korea for six months of intensive training at our own expense."

"More intensive training?" Hua Yanran asked in surprise. "There's no such clause in the contract."

"It's like this, Miss Hua. All the artists in our Sheng Tang Dynasty follow the acting route. Even if you debut as an idol, you still have to master the most basic elements of acting. If your acting is not good, we will send you to film. This will not only ruin your own acting career, but also damage the reputation of our Sheng Tang Dynasty."

After hearing his words, Hua Yanran also felt that they made sense. "Thank you, President Yan, for thinking of me. I accept this intensive training. I will definitely study hard after I arrive in South Korea."

I finally agreed to go to South Korea.

Mu Sen breathed a sigh of relief.

……

Having dealt with Hua Yanran, Mu Sen prepared to go upstairs with Lu Siqi and fly back to Hong Kong.

Yan Song stopped them, saying, "Hua Yanran has already been taken to Sheng Tang by the agent I arranged. Brother Gu and Fourth Brother are here. You two can leave later."

Upon meeting her fourth uncle, Lu Yao, Lu Siqi tried her best not to reveal her relationship with Mu Sen in front of him.

She could fool her fourth uncle's eyes, but she couldn't fool Gu Shi.

After exchanging information about the current progress of the mission, Lu Yao learned that Hua Xu was now on the same side as them and was no longer worried about the safety of the people in Bangnan's spy network. He breathed a sigh of relief.

But after a while, he received a phone call, and as the other party reported on the progress of their work, his expression became increasingly serious.

After the call ended, Lu Yao walked up to them, his throat slightly choked, but he was trying his best to control his emotions. "The batch of heroin that was brought into Jianghong County was stopped by the police."

This was good news, but his next words immediately weighed heavily on everyone present.

"However, three of our anti-drug police officers have sacrificed their lives, and Qi Nian was shot twice and is currently in the ICU."

Mu Sen's fists clenched involuntarily.

Gu Shi, who is usually able to control his emotions, tightened his throat slightly after hearing about the sacrifice of three anti-drug police officers.

Especially since... Song Qinian was his brother-in-law. His older brother-in-law, Song Qilian, had also sacrificed his life in a drug bust more than a decade ago.

"Don't tell Nuannuan yet." Gu Shi stood up. "I'm going to Jianghong."

“You can’t go.” Lu Yao stopped him. “Your presence would be too conspicuous and would make it easy for the drug dealers on Jiang Hong’s side to notice our liquidation operation.”

“I’ll go there,” Lu Siqi offered, “I know Jianghong well.”

“You absolutely cannot go there; your identity would be too easily exposed.” Lu Yao pondered for a moment. “I will select a few reliable people from the special zone to go there. As for our fallen soldiers, I will make sure they are properly taken care of.”

"Whose goods are these?" Gu Shi asked.

Lu Yao replied, "From the Hua family."

Upon hearing that the goods belonged to the Hua family, Gu Shi looked up at Mu Sen.

Mu Sen immediately thought of Hua Xu. Could it be that this old fox betrayed him while he was away?

But then he thought, Hua Xu couldn't be that stupid. "Don't worry, wait for news from Brother Shen. This shipment has already been stopped. The owner is definitely more anxious than we are. If Hua Xu really betrayed us, he wouldn't risk being questioned by Hua Dongchen to send this shipment to Jiang Hong."

"We must investigate this thoroughly; we cannot let our soldiers sacrifice their lives in vain." Gu Shi walked to the French windows and bowed three times deeply towards the distant sky.

Seeing this, Lu Yao, Mu Sen, and Lu Siqi all stood at attention, looked out the window with upright posture, and bowed deeply three times.

We express our sincerest respect to the soldiers who sacrificed their lives in Jiang Hong.

……

Half past four in the afternoon.

The helicopter took off, and after Mu Sen boarded, he asked Lu Siqi to fly over the Special Economic Zone first.

Just minutes later, the plane arrived in the Special Administrative Region. Looking down, police officers in uniforms stood tall and straight on the various training grounds, the national flag was lowered to half-mast, and everyone neatly removed their hats and saluted.

I know it's a tribute to the "unsung heroes" who sacrificed their lives.

Seeing this, Musen put away his binoculars, put on his glasses, and covered his reddening eyes.

Tears welled in Lu Siqi's eyes. She choked back sobs as she adjusted the aircraft, circling it three times over the Special Economic Zone to pay her respects before finally flying towards the port city.

Because only people like them truly know how many brave soldiers have sacrificed their lives in this war against drugs, a war without gunfire.

They knew that drug enforcement was a path that led one foot into hell, yet they still bravely embarked on it; for the safety and health of countless families, they persevered on this path without fear of sacrifice.

Some undercover anti-drug police officers and soldiers even have nameless tombstones after their deaths.

Because they want to prevent their family and descendants from being retaliated against by drug dealers.

……

I arrived in the port city with a heavy heart.

The plane landed on the helipad of the Lin family compound.

The Lin Family Compound is a traditional Chinese garden with antique Hui-style architecture. Surrounded by bustling high-rise buildings, it gives one the illusion of falling into a secret paradise in Jiangnan.

The port city has experienced invasion and occupation by other countries. During those turbulent times, the Lin family, a long-established business family, had already made significant contributions to the country's revival.

Later, the port city returned to the motherland, but was divided for nearly several decades due to internal strife.

It is truly remarkable that the Lin family has been able to maintain its original patriotism for generations.

With respect for the Lin family, Lu Siqi remained silent as she walked towards the front hall with Mu Sen.

Mu Sen's face had long since regained its usual seriousness, unlike his languid demeanor in Bangnan. He returned the bows and greetings from the Lin family's servants one by one, and walked toward one of the courtyards.

As we approached, we saw a plaque hanging above the courtyard with eight large characters: "Treat the country as your home, and do not engage in rampant greed in business."

"This is a phrase my grandfather wrote himself. 'A merchant should not be greedy' means that our Lin family should not make money through dishonest means." After explaining, Mu Sen led her into the courtyard.
