I am the Holy Poisoner, the Empress advised me to calm down

She answered the phone, her voice calm and firm: "Fourth Uncle, why are you calling?"

Sheng Nanting's voice came over the phone, still cold and stern: "Lu Yining, remember my words, stay alert, I have sent someone to assist you."

As soon as he finished speaking, a black car came speeding over, the door opened, and several capable men in plain clothes rushed forward quickly and subdued the men in black.

Lu Yining breathed a sigh of relief and looked towards the car, only to find Sheng Nanting stepping out. His eyes were as sharp as an eagle, scanning the surroundings before turning to her.

"Yining, you must be cautious in what you do next." Sheng Nanting said in a deep voice, "There are more secrets hidden behind this, and you may face greater danger."

Lu Yining nodded. She knew that the road ahead was full of unknowns and challenges, but she would never back down.

She met Sheng Nanting's gaze and answered firmly: "No matter what happens, I will find the truth and protect me and my family."

Sheng Nanting nodded slightly, then turned and left. In the night, Lu Yining stood there, with a firm belief burning in his heart.

And this was just the beginning. There were many more unknowns waiting for her ahead... Lu Yining watched Sheng Nanting's car leave, took a deep breath, and her determination became even stronger. She knew that she couldn't relax at all, otherwise not only would she be in danger, but her family would also be threatened.

She walked along the secluded alley, secretly alert in her heart. Just as she was about to turn into another street, she suddenly heard a conversation coming from not far away.

"Have you heard? That girl from the Lu family actually dared to confront Fourth Uncle. She's simply courting death."

"Humph, she's just a little girl, what can she do?"

These words pierced Lu Yining's heart like a sharp knife. But she remained undeterred; instead, her resolve strengthened. She lowered her head slightly, quickened her pace, and quickly left the alley.

Arriving at the neighborhood Lin Xiaowen mentioned, Lu Yining saw a few furtive people looking around from afar. Hiding in the shadows, she observed carefully and found that these people were not simple thugs. Their movements were obviously professionally trained.

Suddenly, someone walked towards her. Lu Yining quickly hid in a corner, her heart beating rapidly. The person seemed to notice something, looked around, and then retreated to his original position. Lu Yining breathed a sigh of relief, quickly sent a message to Lin Xiaowen to confirm their location, and then quietly approached the people.

"Boss, is it useful for us to guard like this? I don't think this little girl will show up at all." One of the men in black whispered.

Another man, who was obviously of higher status, glared at him fiercely and said, "We must do what the Fourth Master has instructed us to do. If the news leaks out, we will be in trouble."

Hearing this, Lu Yining understood. They were indeed coming for him, but who was manipulating them behind the scenes? This question could not be answered for the time being. The most important thing now was how to escape from this situation.

At this moment, a familiar engine sound was heard. It was Lin Xiaowen driving up. She had obviously spotted the suspicious group and turned the car towards Lu Yining. Taking advantage of this momentary opportunity, Lu Yining rushed forward, opened the car door, and got in.

"Drive quickly!" Lu Yining ordered anxiously.

Lin Xiaowen didn't ask any questions and rushed out of the street with a single step on the accelerator. By the time the men in black behind her reacted, the car had already gone far away.

After reaching a safe distance, the two relaxed a little.

"Yining, how did you get involved with this group of people? They look like they have bad intentions." Lin Xiaowen asked worriedly.

"The specific situation is still unclear, but I suspect it has something to do with Mu Ze's matter." Lu Yining pondered, "Those people mentioned Fourth Uncle just now. Maybe he was behind this."

Lin Xiaowen gasped: "Oh my God! Are you in big trouble this time? Should I call the police?"

"Don't do that for now." Lu Yining shook his head. "I want to find out what happened and then make a plan."

Over the next few days, Lu Yining used various methods to investigate the origin of the strange number and the identity of the person she encountered tonight. After several twists and turns, a key clue surfaced: it turned out that the whole thing was due to a business dispute her father had been involved in, and the other party wanted to use her to pressure the Lu family to hand over a huge sum of money.

After receiving this news, Lu Yining felt heavy-hearted. This was not just a simple fight, but a matter of life and death for her family. At this moment, she had to calm down and make a plan.

When she told her parents all this, Zhang Xiumin burst into tears. "Yining, this is all our fault..."

"Mom, don't say that." Lu Yining gently hugged his mother, "Let's face it together."

Xu Shengli patted his daughter's shoulder and said firmly, "That's right. No matter what, we must unite and solve this problem!"

The next morning, Lu Yining received a message from Lin Xiaowen. "Yining, I found a strange place. There's an abandoned building near the city center, and people have been coming in and out frequently lately."

This clue immediately caught her attention. "Thank you, Xiaowen. I'll go check it out now."

Arriving there, she discovered several men in black suits emerging from the building. Unwilling to act rashly, Lu Yining opted for covert surveillance. After days and nights of surveillance, she finally grasped some patterns in their movements.

Just as she was considering her next move, her phone vibrated again. It was Sheng Nanting calling. "Yining, I've found some useful information about the money and the identity of the other party. You can come over and take a look."

Lu Yining was delighted and quickly headed to the agreed location. After the two sat down face to face, Sheng Nanting showed her the information he had collected and suggested that they take joint action with the police.

However, at this moment, gunshots were heard outside...

There were a few "bangs," followed by screams and hurried footsteps. Through the window, one could see people running in all directions on the street. The situation was extremely critical.

"What's going on?" Lu Yining asked in horror.

Sheng Nanting's face was solemn: "It seems that the other party has also realized that we are investigating and is preparing to take action."

There was a rapid knock on the door, accompanied by an angry roar: "Open the door! We know you are in there!"

The situation became increasingly tense, and the air was filled with an indescribable sense of oppression...

"Fourth Uncle, what should we do?" Lu Yining stared at the door, holding a key document in his hand.

Sheng Nanting's eyes flickered: "I can only take a gamble..."
