"Lanchuan, go buy some for Xia Zhi."

The close subordinate who was driving heard the master's call, stopped the car and responded respectfully.

"Okay, young master."

Lan Chuan is an extremely tall and mighty man from Dongcheng, with strong and developed muscles all over his body. He is 95 meters tall and weighs 220 kilograms.

He has outstanding martial arts skills, is loyal and honest. He has been with Miao Man since Shi Rong was very young, staying by her side every day and responsible for protecting her personal safety.

During the five years that Shi Rong was away, they basically followed Shi Yang in doing things. Now that they see their young master back, they are very happy.

"Thank you~"

Xia Zhi was very happy to get the donuts she had been longing for. She held them in her arms, gave one to each of them, and ate them happily.

Seeing the street scenes flashing by on both sides becoming more and more desolate, Shen Mingxing stopped eating and poked Shi Rong's back of the hand.

"Are we...going straight back to East City?"

Shi Rong swallowed the strawberry donut in his mouth and glanced at her.

"if not?"

Shen Mingxing thought about it.

"But the city lockdown order issued by Huo Jiuzhou himself has not been lifted yet. We only have 6 vehicles and 27 men. Can we get out?"

Shi Rong smiled indifferently.

"Do you think there's only a lockdown order?"

Based on her understanding of Huo Jiuzhou, that man would never let her go easily.

As if he understood what Shi Rong said, Shen Mingxing felt an even stronger sense of crisis.

"Then you're leaving?"

Shi Rong suddenly laughed out loud, his laughter was pleasant and melodious.

"Why not? Do you think I can't beat Huo Jiuzhou?"

Shen Mingxing was stunned.

"So you knew Huo Jiuzhou would do everything in his power to pursue you, so you left early on purpose, fearing he would take the opportunity to embarrass Grandma and Big Brother?"

Shi Rong nodded without commenting.

"You could say that."

Shen Mingxing frowned.

To be honest, the three of them couldn't guarantee it, but based on Shi Rong's superb skills, he might be able to fight on par with the invincible Huo Jiuzhou.

Since she had made up her mind, Shen Mingxing didn't say anything more. She just hoped that Shi Rong would not encounter any more accidents.

Everything went smoothly along the way until the car arrived safely at the North City exit. It seemed that they were only one step away from escaping.

Three silver-black Bentley cars came speeding over, and with the three movements in unison, they braked suddenly like a dragon, and stopped steadily in front of the Cullinan that Shi Rong was riding in, blocking the road.

"Oh, I'll go!"

Lan Chuan saw someone blocking the road, so he stepped on the brakes hard to avoid a car accident.

Because Ji Xinyue was not wearing a seat belt, her forehead hit the back of the front seat and she screamed in pain.

"Damn, are these people sick?!"

Shi Rong was amused by her cursing appearance, which was not like the usual Xin Yue at all, so he stretched out his fair little hand to help her rub the area.

……

"Madam, Mr. Huo, please get out of the car."

Not long after, Huo Xun and Huo Zun's official voices rang out from outside the car. Their words were firm and unquestionable, just like their master, domineering and overbearing.

Shi Rong rubbed his aching temples, glanced at the flat shoes he had changed into, and tightened his warm mink coat.

Without saying much, she opened the car door with the help of Shen Mingxing and walked out gracefully.

At the same time as she showed up, on the opposite side of her, several luxury cars, led by a Rolls-Royce Continental, advanced in unison, followed by hundreds of nine-seater business SUVs, all arriving as scheduled.

The man opened the driver's door, took a step forward with his long legs, and landed on one foot.

Four groups of men in black, led by Huo Xun, Huo Zun, Huo Yan and Huo Yi, rushed out of the car, with Shi Rong and others as the center. They stood with their backs to the north city exit and surrounded them unexpectedly, leaving no way out!

The woman narrowed her watery eyes slightly, murderous intent in them, and her gaze towards Huo Jiuzhou's handsome face was chilly, but when she saw Huo Zhengtong, Mei Wei, Huo Qiye, Huo Yiyan, Huo Wanwan, Chu Xingsong and others who came here with him behind him, she put away her gaze without making a sound.

"Oh my god, there must be tens of thousands of people here, right? Is that really necessary?"

Ji Xinyue and Xia Zhi were dumbfounded on the spot. What on earth was he going to do with such a big fuss?

The two sides are opposite each other, neither far nor close.

Seeing that the woman who made him worried was still standing in front of him intact and not running away, Huo Jiuzhou's tense nerves relaxed for a moment.

He wore a black woolen coat over his dark grey Korean-style suit with vertical stripes. The tie he had tied inside was gone. Three buttons of his black shirt were undone, revealing a piece of fair, firm and delicate chest. His face was as handsome and elegant as ever.

Perhaps because he was chasing too hastily, except for his slightly messy black hair, almost every inch of his body was outlined just right.

A man like this, no matter which woman takes a second look at him, will fall in love with him without hesitation, right? Just like I used to.

Before meeting Huo Jiuzhou, Shi Rong even firmly believed that her brother Shi Yang was the most extraordinary man in the world!

It wasn't until she met him that she broke her conservative thinking.

They were speechless. Even though Huo Jiuzhou had prepared a lot of things to say to her before he came, he forgot everything when he saw Shi Rong's face, which was even more stunningly beautiful than the one he had taken 5 years ago!

It seemed like she was the only one left in the world.

When the stalemate continued, the first snow of the winter fell in the north city.

Just like 5 years ago, when she was brought back to the Huo family's Lanting with snow all over her body, 5 years later, North City was once again covered with snow because of their separation.

Snowing.

Shi Rong unconsciously stretched out her slender hands and caught a snowflake on her fingertips. Watching it melt bit by bit, she curled her lips slightly, revealing a gorgeous and charming smile.

Looking up, she looked at the dim and gloomy night sky. The profile of her face was picturesque, isolated from the world, with the softness of a shy peach and apricot, the purity of a lotus emerging from water, and the beauty of ice-like skin and jade-like bones.

How could he willingly let go of a woman like this?

Just as he was about to speak, the woman's sweet and melodious voice, without a trace of unnecessary emotion, took the initiative.

"Boss Huo is in such a good mood. He brought so many people here in the middle of the night. Are you going to execute me right here?"

The brutality in Huo Jiuzhou was aroused in an instant by these light words, and his brown eyes were suddenly covered with a layer of bloodthirsty scarlet.

But he still tried his best to make his cold tone sound extremely gentle.

"Ah Rong, I came here just to keep you, nothing more. I told you that you can do whatever you want in front of me, except leaving me."

"Leave me?"

Shi Rong sneered, his voice mocking.

"What virtue or ability do I have? Is it worth you making such a fuss? Don't you want Mr. Huo and his people anymore?"
