Uncle Guang broke into a cold sweat and hurriedly said, “Young Master, Young Master Ji Chi is looking for you. He’s been waiting for you in your bedroom. I thought he had informed you.”

“Ji Chi, save me!” Pei Qiuying shouted as Ji Chi leisurely descended the stairs. Pei Qiuying ran to him and tightly grasped Ji Chi’s sleeve, like a touch-me-not seeking protection.

The room had the heating on, and Ji Chi was dressed lightly for sleep, with three buttons of his shirt undone, revealing his chest. It made him look lazy yet sensual. Jiang Junlin glanced at Pei Qiuying holding onto Ji Chi’s hand and coldly said, “So, you two know each other.”

Ji Chi turned to glance at Pei Qiuying and said lightly, “Let go. Don’t hold on like that; Mr. Jiang is jealous.”

Pei Qiuying hesitated for a moment, then released her grip, seemingly not understanding Ji Chi’s meaning.

Ji Chi flicked away nonexistent dust from his sleeve and said casually, “Mr. Jiang, I want to take this person with me. You can’t kill her.”

“What if I insist on killing her?” Jiang Junlin asked.

Ji Chi sighed, “Then there’s nothing I can do. You’ll have to step over my corpse.”

Jiang Junlin looked at him coldly, “Zhang Qiang, kill them all.”

No one expected Jiang Junlin to be so ruthless. Desire was desire, and he showed no mercy. Zhang Qiang was also taken aback and didn’t know what to do for a moment. Ji Chi placed his hand on Jiang Junlin’s side and leaned in, “Mr. Jiang, I’m just following orders. Don’t make it difficult for me.”

Jiang Junlin looked at his alluring face with indifference, and in front of everyone, Ji Chi planted a kiss on Jiang Junlin’s ear and whispered, “Next time, 1’11 serve Mr. Jiang better.”

“Get lost!” Jiang Junlin lowered his voice.

Ji Chi straightened up and looked at Pei Qiuying, saying lightly, “Go!”

Pei Qiuying cautiously glanced at Jiang Junlin. He didn’t look away, his hands crossed in front of him, his face stern and displeased. Pei Qiuying followed Ji Chi as they left.

Once they were gone, Jiang Junlin’s tense emotions relaxed. “Uncle Guang, when did he arrive?”

“He came in the evening,” Uncle Guang said, “Young Master, I’m sorry, it’s my negligence.”

“It’s a minor matter, don’t worry about it,” Jiang Junlin said calmly. Outside, the sound of a car could be heard as Ji Chi and Pei Qiuying left.

Jiang Junlin stood by the window on the second floor, a video call coming through with Dr. North. Dr. North’s face appeared on the wall.

“Jidao needs to change personnel,” Jiang Junlin said concisely.

Dr. North said, “You’ve always been the one making decisions in this matter.”

Jiang Junlin leaned back in his chair and removed his glasses, revealing a pair of eyes that contained a smile but couldn’t hide their sharpness. “Who do you suggest?”

“What do you think of Gu Ci?” Dr. North asked.

Jiang Junlin’s eyes lost their smile. “Why, are you also trying to balance power with me, like Pei Qiuying?”

“I wouldn’t dare!” Dr. North replied with a hint of fear. After taking a deep breath, she continued, “Gu Ci is my direct disciple, I won’t harm her. Besides, other than Gu Ci, who else can you trust?”

“Do you know what I suspect?”

“I do,” Dr. North said. “You suspect the Third Master of Black Hawk, Lu Zhiyuan, and by placing Gu Ci in the Jidao, you not only gain trust but also exert pressure on Black Hawk. Add to that, Ziyu is in the MSS, and there’s no better candidate than her.”

“Qin Yunsang!” Jiang Junlin coldly called out her name. “I think Qin Wan is a better choice. She’s also from your Pei family. She’s better than Gu Ci. What do you think?”

Dr. North turned pale, fear filled her eyes. “I’m sorry, I spoke out of turn.”

In the late hours at the villa, there was a profound silence, only broken by the sound of footsteps. The cold wind outside the window continued to blow.

After a moment of silence, Dr. North raised her head and said, “Master, what if Gu Ci is willing?”

“I allow you to get close to Gu Ci because Gu Ci needs you,” Jiang Junlin replied coldly and heartlessly. “You’ve been hiding from me in prison for several years. You don’t naively think that everything can be forgiven, do you?”

Dr. North couldn’t have imagined that the person she was trying to save was Jiang Junlin’s grandmother. When she saw Jiang Junlin outside the operating room in the hospital, she knew that her life was near its end.

So, she held onto Gu Ci as her lifeline. If Jiang Junlin loved Gu Ci just a little less, she would have been dead long ago. She had betrayed Jiang Junlin in the past, and he had survived. She knew her days were numbered.

After many twists and turns, she had returned to serve under Jiang Junlin.

“Master, I won’t betray you again!” Dr. North said.

Jiang Junlin sneered, “Is that so?”

“You’ve known for a long time that Qin Wan is my daughter, yet you’ve never held a grudge against her. Back then, it was my twisted thinking that led me astray. 1 escaped from a cage, and I don’t want to be bound again,” Dr. North said softly. “You and Chen Geng are different. It was my misunderstanding.”

“Qin Yunsang, heal Gu Ci. Let’s forget the past,” Jiang Junlin stated.

Dr. North had been anxious for months, but finally, she felt relief. From the moment she left prison to today, she had finally heard a promise from Jiang Junlin. “Yes, I understand.”

After a few seconds of silence, she persisted, “I really think Gu Ci is the right choice. You should consider it again.”

Jiang Junlin hung up the video call, and Dr. North had broken into a cold sweat.

Fortunately, Jiang Junlin doted on Gu Ci, which was her saving grace.

Jiang Junlin was a ruthless man, but he had one fatal weakness: he was fiercely protective of his family.

However, if Pei Qiuying was truly colluding with Black Hawk, replacing her wouldn’t be easy. The Third Master of Black Hawk was not one to be trifled with, and there would be a life-and-death struggle between them.

After ending the call, Jiang Junlin asked Zhang Qiang for Lu Zhiyuan’s schedule and the profiles of all the racers. Zhang Qiang didn’t know why, but he suddenly became interested in racing.

Zhang Qiang asked, “Master, do you want to watch the race?”

“Forget it,” Jiang Junlin reconsidered. “I’ll ask Gu Ci later.”

“Understood!”

Jiang Junlin flipped through the racers’ profiles, his gaze fixed on Lu Zhiyuan. He looked at Zhang Qiang and asked, “Zhang Qiang, if I want Lu Zhiyuan to quietly die during the race without arousing Gu Ci’s suspicion…”

Jiang Junlin pointed to the profiles. “Among these racers, who can serve me?”

Zhang Qiang hesitated for a moment, then lowered his head under Jiang Junlin’s cold gaze. “I’ll take care of it immediately.”

“Go!”

Early the next morning, the precise list of targets was ready. Sixteen more names were added to the list of casualties. Due to inadequate medical care, several critically injured patients had passed away. After this horrific attack, the Fl annual race surprisingly wasn’t postponed and proceeded as scheduled. The qualifiers and the main race were completed within a single day.

After an all-night meeting, the racing organization decided to continue the race as planned. Gu Ci was quite surprised when she saw the news. With so many deaths, wouldn’t they face backlash? Indeed, the non-racing enthusiasts flooded the official website with criticism.

The attack had occurred right next to the venue. First, the track hadn’t been affected, second, postponing it would increase financial burdens, and many racing fans had come from all over the world to watch the race. Third, the attackers were all dead..
