At this point, there was no way Xia Ruya was able to mask her fear from him. He smirked. “I need a doctor and some medicine that can be used to treat gunshot wounds. Remember to be very careful. Don’t let anyone trace you and reveal my location. Also, get in touch with those contacts whom I left for you previously. Have them prepare to send me out of Country Z in three days’ time.”

Those resources in Xia Ruya’s hands were still concealed for the moment. They could still make use of them.

Although he had managed to evade Lucifer’s pursuit time and again, he had paid a huge price for it.

He had three gunshot wounds, the most serious of which was caused by Rex. The wound was about three inches away from his heart, and even though he had received treatment when he was hiding at the Elegance Room and recovered somewhat then, the days of being on the run had aggravated his wound. It had gotten infected and was starting to deteriorate.

In addition, his thigh and shoulder had also been shot. The bullets had been taken out rather haphazardly and he didn’t receive proper treatment. As a result, he lost a lot of blood and the injuries had worsened over time. He was no longer in any position to continue running.

He had come looking for Xia Ruya as he had no other choice.

It was because Xia Ruya was the only person in Capital city now that he could use.

Moreover, Xia Ruya was a crafty person and would definitely have her ways to evade detection by the military and Lucifer.

“Alright… I… I promise you. First, let me go…” Xia Ruya’s voice trembled even as she nodded. As long as he wasn’t here to kill her, she would agree to anything.

But… based on what this Mr. Z just said, it appeared like he was severely injured…

“Let me warn you, you better not get any funny ideas.” He increased the pressure of the forceps on Xia Ruya’s neck. The tips of the forceps had already pierced into her skin. The fresh red blood snaking down her fair neck looked exceptionally eye-catching.

“Ah…” Xia Ruya gave a low cry at the pain. The murderous aura exuded by him made her scalp go numb and her entire body to shudder.

Wei Che’s cold lips came close to her ear. “Xia Ruya, you better not act smart. Apart from me, no one can save you now!”

Since he had already been exposed, there was no way Xia Ruya would be able to extract herself in one piece.

Rex clearly wished to remove the Korean-Chinese Alliance’s power in Country Z down to the roots. There was no way he would let Xia Ruya off. He had yet to make his move as Lucifer and the military was still in the midst of their planning. They were keeping a low profile for the time being so as to not put their enemies on the alert.

“You… what do you mean?”

Mr. Z’s tone was so cold that she could even feel the malevolent chill of his breath as he spoke close by her ear. That dark iciness left her in such a daze that she even forgot to shiver.

“Your sworn enemy is Wen Xinya and mine is Rex. Oh… everyone in Country Z calls him Ninth Si. They are working with the military to launch a wide-spanning operation to eradicate my power here. Now that I have been exposed, do you think you can escape without harm?”

Previously, he hadn’t known that Country Z’s Ninth Si was actually Rex, the big boss behind Lucifer.

Outsiders only knew the men of the Si Family by their first names and would never know their surnames.

All he knew was that in those days, that sniffling little worm was called Yan, as Lucifer’s Mistress called him Yan-er.

The Alliance had a person-in-charge in every region. As a high-ranking contact within the Alliance, he was responsible for dispersing orders to the various persons-in-charge for each region. And the person-in-charge in Country Z was Xia Ruya. Although she was very capable, she didn’t know much about the secretive Lucifer organization, who had now already taken over Russia.

As a result, although Rex and Wen Xinya were just under her very nose, she had yet to find out their true identities.

Xia Ruya’s blood froze as her pupils shrank.

She had no idea just how formidable Ninth Si was, but she knew a bit of Mr. Z’s power. Through her interactions with Mr. Z over the years, she already had glimpses of his influence—and that was just the tip of the iceberg.

But Ninth Si was able to cooperate with the military and remove Mr. Z’s power by the roots. It could be seen just how fearsome Ninth Si was.

It didn’t matter whether her identity was exposed. There was no way Wen Xinya would let her off.

Feeling a bit dizzy, Xia Ruya said in a trembling voice, “Then… what should we do now?”

She used the word “we”.

It showed that Xia Ruya had completely believed in his words.

Of course, her question was also a tentative probe at his intentions. After all, Mr. Z was already at his wits’ end in Country Z, pursued on all sides like a stray dog. How could she be sure that he could also save her?

Wei Che said coldly, “As long as I can leave Country Z, they will not be able to do anything to me. By then, I can bring you along and leave Country Z. It will be easy for you then to make a comeback. You might even get all that you have ever desired.”

He knew Xia Ruya’s inner thoughts and motivations very well.

This was also the part of her that he most admired.

It was also why he had taken the risk to come looking for her.

Only smart people were of use to him.

“I… I got it. I will do my best to do as you ordered. I will definitely not expose your location…”

Even though Xia Ruya didn’t really trust his promise—this Mr. Z did abandon her twice before—she had no other choice.

Wen Xinya would never let her off if she remained in Country Z. It was best for her to trust in Mr. Z for the time being, and hopefully get to make a comeback in the future.

As for Harbor City, she reckoned that there was no way she could make the trip anymore now that Mr. Z had come into the picture.

She was being held hostage by Mr. Z now, and he would not let her off that easily. She had no choice but to take a chance.

“I believe that you are a smart person and should know what to do.”

With that, Mr. Z let go of Xia Ruya. He then immediately leaned against the white walls, gasping for air. It was clear that he had used every last ounce of strength to hold onto Xia Ruya earlier.

Xia Ruya glanced at him and swallowed. “You… look like you are… gravely injured!”

Who was this Ninth Si who was able to hurt Mr. Z like this?

Wen Xinya, that bitch! How did she manage to get together with such a formidable character?

Wen Xinya was able to achieve her current status probably only because of that enigmatic Ninth Si. So that was why Xia Ruya had failed once and again when she crossed swords with Wen Xinya, such that she was now forced into such a wretched state.

Xia Ruya’s face darkened at those thoughts. Venomous rage, bitter hatred, and deep envy were written all over her face.

Wei Che shot her an icy look as he propped up his own weak body and hobbled over to the couch in the living room.

Xia Ruya’s blood froze and her body stiffened at his chilly glance. She bit her own lips as she inadvertently glanced at the part of the wall where Mr. Z was leaning against earlier. It was smeared in fresh blood. The sight of that bright red blood against the white walls was spine-chilling.

At this point, Xia Ruya turned completely subservient.
