Chapter 599: Capture Li Yuan
Translator: _Min_
Fu Jing’s eyes sparkled momentarily before dimming with despondency, “I’m just a tool for Li Yuan to fend off external threats. Of course, I wish to leave him, but his scheming mind and ruthless methods have kept me in fear all these years.”
Fu Jing said in a low voice, “I’ve found no opportunity to escape; perhaps I’m destined to spend my life in this perilous environment.”
Gu Dai looked at Fu Jing with a serious expression, “I can help you escape.”
To Fu Jing, Gu Dai’s words shone like a beacon of hope in her darkness.
Fu Jing looked up in disbelief, “Can you really help me escape?”
Gu Dai nodded firmly, “Yes, but you need to cooperate with me.”
At that moment, the door was forcefully pushed open, and Li Yuan stormed in, radiating anger.
Fu Jing’s heart skipped a beat, remembering the soundproofing of the hotel rooms and that the surveillance had been disabled by Gu Dai. Suppressing her panic, she approached Li Yuan, asking calmly, “Weren’t you handling something? Why are you back so suddenly?”
Li Yuan brushed Fu Jing aside and glared at Gu Dai, accusing coldly, “Are you the one causing trouble behind the scenes?”
Gu Dai responded calmly, “What are you talking about?”
Li Yuan sneered, “If it wasn’t for you, how could Organization X face trouble?”
Before Gu Dai could reply, Li Yuan, his features twisted with rage, raised his hand to strike her, only to be stopped mid-air by an unseen force.
Li Yuan turned to Fu Jing, who was holding his arm, and bit out, “What are you doing?”
Seizing the moment Li Yuan’s attention was on Fu Jing, Gu Dai kicked him in the abdomen.
Li Yuan, caught off guard, staggered back several steps, his expression turning vicious as he charged at her with raised fists.
Gu Dai deftly moved behind him, grabbing and throwing him over her shoulder.
Li Yuan fell to the ground, gasping for air. Spotting a dagger on the table, his eyes lit up, and he scrambled towards it, only to find it snatched away before he could reach it.
His eyes dimming, Li Yuan stared at Fu Jing, who now held the dagger, “Give it to me.”
Fu Jing nodded and approached him with the dagger.
As Li Yuan’s lips curved into a satisfied smile, he softly said, “I knew you were the most obedient. Good, give it to me quickly.”
After he spoke, Li Yuan turned to Gu Dai with a cold threat, “I won’t let you go!”
Gu Dai remained unfazed by Li Yuan’s threats.
As Fu Jing stood before him, Li Yuan reached out eagerly, “Quick, give me the dagger.”
Fu Jing tilted her head, her gaze calm and deep as she responded, “Okay.”
She handed over the dagger but held onto his hand, preventing him from moving, and pressed the dagger against his neck.
Feeling the cold edge on his skin, Li Yuan dared not move, his voice laced with venom, “Fu Jing, are you betraying me?”
Fu Jing scoffed, “I never truly wanted to help you. How can there be betrayal?”
Li Yuan’s face turned utterly dark with rage. Ignoring the dagger, he reached for her neck.
Despite Fu Jing’s focused attention on Li Yuan, she couldn’t match his strength. Feeling his grip tighten around her neck, she started to choke.
Gu Dai stepped forward, taking the dagger from Fu Jing’s hand and stabbing it into Li Yuan’s neck.
As Li Yuan felt his blood draining rapidly, pain overwhelmed him. He glared at Gu Dai with bloodshot eyes, filled with intense hatred.
Gu Dai turned to Fu Jing and said simply, “It’s in your hands now.”
Fu Jing nodded, taking the dagger from Gu Dai.
As Li Yuan felt the dagger’s point pierce his skin, he pleaded in fear, “Stop, stop! Fu Jing, do you hear me? I command you to stop!”
Fu Jing coldly retorted, her gaze icy as she looked down at Li Yuan, “I’ve only caused a superficial wound.. I haven’t even pierced your blood vessels or thrown you into the torture chamber you designed, and you’re already this scared?”
