My Youth Began With Him

“I had the honor to see your picture,” Rick said in a low voice.

“I see…” The professor smiled.

“I’m glad you’re here. Qin Chu will be fine.” Rick knew who the professor was and was relieved to see him here.

“Yes. His illness is not a problem for me.”

“Professor, with your great connections, you can find Mian’s whereabouts easily, right?”

“No. I can’t.”

“You don’t know Mian’s whereabouts either?” Rick was surprised.

“Yan is still searching for her.”

“It seems Huo Siqian had spent lots of energy and money on his plan. Even you can’t find them,” said Rick.

“The boy from the Huo Family is attentive to details and has a deep obsession with my daughter, so it won’t be easy to find them. He even dared to betray Ian; what else is he not capable of?”

“That’s unfortunate. Qin Chu will be very sad when he wakes up and finds that we haven’t found Mian yet.”

“We can’t help it. We must wake him up first. Anyway, Mian is safe. At least, the boy from the Huo Family won’t hurt her… But we’ll find her eventually,” said the professor.

Rick nodded and didn’t pursue the topic.

– In the cold storage room in the Middle East –

Ian and Lu Yan were still in the standoff.

Ian didn’t know what the story of the Journey to the West was about or the theory it contained, but he knew Lu Yan wasn’t easy to deal with.

With the sedative needle in his hand, Ian hesitated.

“Boss, the woman is bluffing, right? We’re far from her; it will be fine for us to shoot her with the sedative needle from here.”

Reluctant to admit defeat, Ian’s lackeys urged their boss to shoot Lu Yan with the needle.

Ian was silent.

Lu Yan said with a chuckle, “Fellow, you seem to have forgotten how I blew up your branch in Indonesia?”

“You have a micro bomb on you?” Ian’s lackeys stepped back in fear.

“I’ve got lots of such bombs on me. If you shoot the needle at me, believe me, you’ll all die with me.”

“Baby, you’re bluffing again?” Ian smiled.

“If you don’t believe me, you can ask your good friend Qiao Nan. He knows my ways.” Then she closed her eyes and ignored them.

She looked relaxed without a trace of fear on her face.

“Boss, the woman can’t coincidentally have a micro bomb on her, right? We can’t believe her words.”

“You know nothing. She doesn’t play by rules…” Ian frowned.

“Then…”

For five minutes, Ian stood not far from Lu Yan but didn’t dare to make a move; he watched her from the distance and didn’t dare to move close to her because she was surrounded by mines that could blow them up if they took a wrong step.

At this moment, footsteps came from outside.

“Boss, someone’s coming.”

“Fack, maybe their back-up has come.”

The moment they said it, a hand grenade was tossed inside.

As it exploded behind them, Ian hurried out of the side door under his men’s protection.

They fled in the cover of the black smoke.

Qiao Fei dashed in, carried Lu Yan in his arms, and ran out from the front door before putting her in the car.

“Bastard! You’re late. I was almost taken by the big psycho Ian…” Lu Yan pinched Qiao Fei’s face and scolded him.

“I’m sorry, Yan.” Worriedly, Qiao Fei looked at Lu Yan, who was pale and weak.

“Qiao Fei, I’m starving… I want to eat…” Then her head slumped as she passed out.

“Yan…” Qiao Fei was so scared.
