Chapter 708: Chapter 708: Collective Mobilization

At this moment, Sister Ling, in a disheveled state, had already escaped from the Bai Family.

Her right shoulder was hit by a bullet, and her calf, shattered by Nan Shan, had also been shot.

By sheer willpower, she managed to escape alive, preventing herself from dying at the Bai Family.

Sister Ling returned to her home, and the face beneath the mask was already contorted beyond recognition.

Her whole body was drenched in sweat, feeling extremely uncomfortable.

The doctor was already waiting at her doorstep, and when Sister Ling arrived at home, the servant supported her while the doctor helped treat her wounds.

Sister Ling took out her phone, dialed a number, and shouted angrily, “Erase all traces of my visit to the Bai Family today. I don’t care what method you use; you cannot let those people find me! No matter how many informants are sacrificed, they must not discover me!”

After hanging up, Sister Ling’s face turned ashen.

…

The Bai Family finally quieted down.

Through the surveillance, it could be seen that Sister Ling’s movements weren’t as quick, her calf seemed injured.

Moreover, her body could fit through a dog hole, indicating that she knew the bone shrinking technique.

Li Yehan and Bai Jingting, along with others, stood in front of the monitor, watching the surveillance footage.

“Such impressive skills!” Bai Jingrui exclaimed in awe.

Thankfully, Liu Feng discovered it in time; had she succeeded, would the people of the Bai Family still see today’s sun?

The Bai Family had already begun to bolster security, fearing such incidents might happen again.

Bai Jingting zoomed in on the footage, but all he could see was a masked face; her real appearance was not visible.

Bai Jingyan: “She came prepared and certainly wouldn’t let us see her face. Check the surrounding surveillance to see if we can track her down.”

Bai Jingting: “It’s already been checked.”

Bai Jingyan pursed his lips; does that mean there’s no news?

Li Yehan sent out the surveillance video for the subordinates to investigate.

Li Yehan’s cool voice sounded, “Even if tracked, her whereabouts probably won’t be found. This person acted spontaneously, not premeditated.”

If premeditated, one could find clues in the direction.

Spontaneous actions make investigations neither simple nor quick.

Bai Zhenyang: “I agree with Ye Han’s judgment. If she fails once, she won’t return for another attempt soon. However, we still can’t let our guard down; safety first.”

Bai Jingting: “Dad, I’ve already dispatched additional bodyguards for 24-hour continuous patrols. Added extra surveillance and checked the walls individually, fortifying them.”

This time, the Bai Family was certainly surrounded by impenetrable defenses.

…

Nan Qiao stayed at home for half a day. Only when everyone was busy with their own tasks could she leave without being nagged.

“Uncle Qin, let’s go to the lab to pick up Wan Sang.”

“Okay, Miss.”

Uncle Qin drove, Uncle Dao sat in the passenger seat, Nan Qiao sat in the back, managing affairs on her laptop.

After arriving at the lab, they picked up Wan Sang and brought along Huo Siyu, heading to another location together.

Wan Sang rubbed his hands excitedly, “It’s been so long since the last big operation, thrilling.”

Huo Siyu was sharpening the dagger in her hand, “Same here, let’s sharpen the blade a bit for better handling later.”

Nan Qiao watched the two in mixed feelings. Neither showed any fear; instead, they were excited and expectant.

Meanwhile.

Fu Qingyan was sent to the supervising house; she was also set to participate in the upcoming experiment.

Here, she encountered Li Ye.

Li Ye still had the same face, unchanged.

At this moment, he was participating in the experiment, showing a commanding and arrogant demeanor.

“Seeing you in such a pitiful state, did you suffer losses on Nan Qiao’s side again?” Li Ye frowned slightly.

“Are you mocking me?” Fu Qingyan shouted angrily.

“I’m not mocking you; I’m stating the facts. There’s no need for you to face me with a fiery temper. My dear sister, we’re in the same boat; I’m not your enemy.”

“Li Ye, do you find it amusing to speak insincerely like this? Ultimately, you still think I’ve failed and want to laugh at me.”

Li Ye rubbed his eyebrows, unwilling to engage with Fu Qingyan, who was breaking down, finding her too difficult to communicate.

“Li Ye, I heard something upon returning this time. The old man recognized an adopted son; even if Li Yehan can’t inherit the Li Family, the adopted son will inherit the family business. As for you and me, we’ve never been noticed by the old man!”

Li Ye’s face tightened, his eyes filled with anger, visibly infuriated.

Fu Qingyan was slightly pleased upon seeing Li Ye in such distress.

There is a kind of happiness built on others’ pain.

“The old man is sinister; you’re his legitimate grandson, yet he hasn’t placed you as the heir. Li Ye, after all the calculations, we never really had a chance! Ridiculous, how laughable is that!”

Fu Qingyan sat on a chair, rubbing her aching leg.

After enduring hardships, she hesitated to confront Nan Qiao.

Repeated failures made her feel like a failure.

Li Ye pondered the matter, revealing a self-deprecating smile.

Years of maneuvering and battling Li Yehan.

After all this, another person was lurking in the shadows waiting for them.

Too ridiculous!

“Li Ye, stop fighting; I think we can’t beat the cunning people of the Li Family!” Fu Qingyan slumped powerlessly into the chair, unable to speak.

“Impossible!” Li Ye exploded, as if someone stepped on his landmine.

“After fighting all this time, you’re telling me to give up? How much have we sacrificed? Don’t forget the deal you made with them! You live peacefully yet want to back out; you think they’d let you?”

Fu Qingyan irritably scratched her head.

Suddenly, commotion erupted outside.

Li Ye heard the noise and quickly ran out to check the situation.

Halfway through, Li Ye turned back, grabbed Fu Qingyan’s arm, and fiercely asked, “Did you betray us? Did you cooperate with Nan Qiao?”

Fu Qingyan froze, “What are you talking about? How could I cooperate with Nan Qiao? If I betrayed you, I wouldn’t come back. Running to the net, would there be a good end for me?”

Li Ye couldn’t see any other emotions in Fu Qingyan’s eyes; she didn’t seem to be pretending but rather stating the truth.

“Better be so, or you’ll know the consequences!” Li Ye released her hand and walked aside.

Their base was built under an abandoned warehouse, extremely hidden and hard to find.

Now, it seemed they were surrounded!

This group was ruthless, employing vile tactics, and immediately attacked with smoke.

The choking smoke billowed out, and those hiding in the basement scurried around like rats on the streets.

Fu Qingyan became the target of everyone’s accusations, all questioning why she had brought harm!

Fu Qingyan was bewildered; she hadn’t expected such an outcome!

She was also a victim!

At this moment, Nan Qiao’s voice echoed from outside.
