This scene unfolded too quickly, and by the time the others reacted, it was too late for any rescue.

Of course, the syringe contained no lethal poison, but the drug inside could render a person completely powerless and drowsy.

It was a precautionary measure to prevent resistance from Nan Yan, specially provided by Xi Shijin.

With just that one syringe, it was now gone.

Nan Yan casually massaged her wrist and walked into the room with an unmistakable intention of causing a scene.

Kidnapper A raised his pistol, pointing it directly at An Yaoqing’s head, and said sternly, “Don’t make any trouble! I’ll shoot if you do!”

An Yaoqing was so frightened that his eyes rolled back, appearing on the verge of fainting.

Lu Lehua screamed and pleaded, “Nan Yan… Smoke, save us… Please don’t provoke them!”

“Wuwuwu…”

Since being kidnapped from Jin City and brought to M Country, they had been terrified multiple times along the way. In less than ten hours, they seemed to have traversed hell and back. They were no longer recognizable as the former corporate entrepreneur and wealthy lady. Their spirits were shattered, and even their sanity seemed to be slipping away.

They were reduced to instinctively cowering and dared not provoke the kidnappers in any way. Moreover, they hadn’t had a sip of water or a bite of food since being kidnapped. They were so hungry that they couldn’t even complain about it.

Watching the kidnappers enjoy a lavish meal while they could only dryly swallow their own saliva, they had no choice but to bear it.

Now, seeing Nan Yan’s arrival, they couldn’t even remember how much they had resented her or how much they had come to despise her after she had been hurt.

All their hopes rested on Nan Yan.

Nan Yan didn’t bother looking at them and directly engaged with the kidnappers. “Put away your threats and intimidation. Release the two of them, and I’ll go meet Xi Shijin with you.”

The kidnappers hesitated, exchanging glances with one another. Did they already know who had targeted her?

But if they released the two hostages now, what if she ran away uncontrollably? They were in a bit of a dilemma.

“You’d better not test my patience. You can’t bear the consequences of irritating me.”

Nan Yan’s indifferent tone left the kidnappers infuriated.

They held her parents hostage, yet she was this audacious!

Weren’t they afraid that if they killed those two, they’d lose control over her?

Just as they were torn between anger and frustration, Nan Yan suddenly took action.

The kidnappers didn’t even have time to react; all they saw was a blur as Nan Yan appeared next to Kidnapper A.

Kidnapper A’s wrist stung, and the gun he was holding was already in Nan

Yan’s hand.

Nan Yan pressed the gun’s muzzle against his head with a sinister tone, “Now, can we proceed?”

Her patience was wearing thin, especially with those who dared to bother her without thinking twice.

“Yes, yes!” Kidnapper A was trembling with fear.

He was terrified that a misstep from Nan Yan would turn his head into a smashed watermelon.

He bit his tongue to stay calm and then shouted loudly at the others, “What are you waiting for? Hurry up and release them!”

Lu Lehua stared in confusion at the scene before her, only realizing what was happening when the other kidnappers rushed to untie her.

Nan Yan, the woman who had just snatched a gun from the kidnapper and was now threatening them?

“Someone outside is here to pick you up and take you back to your home country,” Nan Yan said indifferently, her words finally bringing clarity to Lu Lehua’s mind.

She wanted to say something, but Nan Yan didn’t even spare her a glance. Her cold and distant expression made it clear she had no interest in engaging with them.

Her gaze was somewhat complicated, and she eventually helped the disabled An Yaoqing to walk out.

Once An Yaoqing and Lu Lehua had left, Kidnapper A begged, “We’ve already sent the people away as you ordered. Can you please put the gun down now?”

Nan Yan tapped his head twice with the gun’s muzzle and said indifferently, “Call Xi Shijin and tell him you’ve succeeded. Ask him to come and pick me up.”

“Yes…”

Kidnapper A dared not be defiant.

After all, his life was hanging by a thread in Nan Yan’s hands, and he had no choice but to follow her instructions. As for the other kidnappers, they had thoughts of escaping, but Nan Yan raised her gun and shot the hand of one who was reaching for the door handle. He watched helplessly as his hand was pierced, instantly giving up any notion of escape. The kidnappers couldn’t help but roar internally:

Who were the real kidnappers?

But they couldn’t afford to provoke Nan Yan, so they had no choice but to wait nervously like grandchildren for her judgment.

Kidnapper A picked up his phone, his hand trembling as he dialed several times before finally making the call.

He didn’t have Xi Shijin’s number, so he contacted Xi Shijin’s assistant instead.

After connecting, Kidnapper A, trying to conceal his panic, ingratiatingly said, “We’ve followed your orders and injected the drug into her. She’s now under control. You can come and pick her up.”

The assistant who answered the call said, “Well done. You wait there, and I’ll send someone over.”

Under Nan Yan’s instructions, Kidnapper A added, “Alright, alright. We hope you can come quickly. I’m afraid if it takes too long, the drug’s effects might wear off.

The assistant chuckled, “Don’t worry, that drug can last for at least twenty-four hours.”

After hanging up the phone, the assistant went to find Xi Shijin.

“Director, just got a response from them. They’ve got her under control now, and she’s been drugged. They’re waiting for you to pick her up.”

Xi Shijin, who had initially been wearing a gloomy expression, instantly brightened upon hearing this “good news.”

He patted the assistant on the shoulder and said with a slightly serious tone, “Go over there and give them some money. Make sure they don’t talk about this matter.”

“Yes, Director!”

Outside the house, Qin Lu and Wu Yue were waiting.

Seeing Lu Lehua helping An Yaoqing out of the house, Qin Lu instructed, “Send someone to assist them.”

Wu Yue acknowledged and relayed the message through the walkie-talkie to the operatives waiting nearby.

Soon, someone appeared, lifting An Yaoqing and escorting the two of them to another vehicle.

Wu Yue listened to the message through the walkie-talkie and repeated it to

Qin Lu, “Young Master, they’re asking for the next set of orders.”

“Send two people to take Mr. An and his wife back to their home country. The rest should remain on standby.”

Qin Lu had pieced together most of what had happened inside the room through his Bluetooth earpiece.

At present, Nan Yan was not in danger, but when he heard the name “Xi Shijin” coming from her mouth, his emotions stirred slightly.

A certain speculation was becoming clearer.

“Have Xing Jia come to see me.”

He pinched his brow between his fingers, maintaining a calm outward demeanor.

Wu Yue hesitated for a moment, puzzled about why he would want Xing Jia to come at this time. However, when the Young Master gave an order, it was as good as a royal decree. He quickly responded with an acknowledgment and then contacted Xing Jia..
