Upon hearing this, the thugs immediately nodded and bowed.

"Don't worry, Young Master Hai, isn't it just a hero rescuing a damsel in distress? We see that all the time in novels."

"Don't worry, we're professionals at this. We'll definitely make your brilliance shine through, Young Master Hai."

"It will absolutely make you look like a divine warrior descending from the heavens, Young Master Hai!"

Hearing the assurances from the thugs, the young man nodded smugly.

"Young lady, you'll be off work in half an hour. Be quick-witted. As long as you get the job done, money is no problem!"

Soon, several thugs had already taken cover.

Li Minghai took a deep drag on his cigarette.

"Damn it! That kid Zhao Yiming is really unreliable. Didn't we agree that this little girl and her good-for-nothing brother would come to see me this morning?"

"I've been waiting all morning and haven't seen a single hair. I can't even get through to Zhao Yiming on the phone! I guess I'll have to step in!"

Li Minghai never imagined that his underling Zhao Yiming was currently enjoying a mixed-gender doubles session and had no time to answer the phone.

At this moment, they are in the factory building just a few hundred meters away.

The machines on the assembly line whirred like tireless millstones, emitting a deafening roar.

Changhong Industrial's main business is still electrical appliances.

There are hundreds of workers in this one factory alone.

In late autumn, the lingering heat wave arrived as expected.

The outside temperature is still as high as 30 degrees Celsius.

Inside the factory, there were only a few industrial fans, providing a meager amount of coolness to the hardworking workers.

The workers, dressed in blue overalls, were drenched in sweat, their backs soaked through, yet they continued to work tirelessly like numb robots.

Compared to the lofty elites like those in the cold cream industry, this is the true reality for the general public.

On one of the assembly lines, a girl in blue overalls with a ponytail is mechanically inspecting the parts in front of her.

Despite wearing work clothes, her slender figure was still undeniable. Her good looks added a touch of glamour to the cold factory.

Her delicate and lovely eyes were full of meticulousness.

And she is Zhang Xuan's twin sister, Zhang Yuqing.

Soon, it was time to get off work, and as the machines stopped, the workers ceased their tasks.

A middle-aged woman who looked to be in her early forties walked over.

"Yuqing, it's not that your aunt is criticizing you, but you don't need to take it so seriously. We're just going through the motions of life."

The pure and lovely girl smiled slightly, revealing two dimples on her cheeks.

"Aunt Wang, actually I think that time passes faster when you work meticulously."

Aunt Wang chuckled softly.

"Silly girl, you're really hardworking. Where else in our factory can we find a girl as young as you?"

"You're stupid! Why should your brother go to university while you get a job!"

“He’s a grown man, more capable than you. It should be the other way around; you go to university, and he supports you!”

"Gender equality is a thing of the past now. You're young, you should understand that!"

Listening to her aunt's earnest words, the girl's two small dimples remained on her face.

“My brother is better at studying than me, and besides, he is the eldest son in the family.”

"Our Zhang family's future success will depend on my brother."

Hearing the girl's answer, Aunt Wang scoffed.

"You little girl, you're so young, why do you still have such old-fashioned ideas?"

"You've suffered so much, I hope your brother will have a bright future."

The girl smiled and then walked towards the factory gate.

A pink bicycle was parked prominently at the entrance, though it looked rather old.

The girl did not change out of her work clothes, but rode her bicycle into the distance.

There are many small villages within the development zone.

To save money, the girl rented a small house in the countryside.

The way home took me through a remote asphalt road.

The girl pedaled her bicycle with her long, beautiful legs, humming softly to herself.

"I remember you said home was the only castle..."

The melodious singing echoed throughout the asphalt road.

Suddenly, a playful voice rang out.

"Little sister, your singing is not bad!"

"Come on, come sing with your brother!"

As they were speaking, several figures suddenly darted out from the woods by the roadside.

Loafers, skinny jeans, blond hair—I'm the coolest young man out there!

A pair of lewd eyes kept scanning the girl's delicate body.

Seeing this, the girl was terrified and immediately turned around, trying to escape.

But just then, two figures suddenly darted out from behind, completely blocking the girl's escape route!

"Little sister, you have a nice figure, you're developing quite well."

"Come on, let your brother give you a kiss. Riding your bike to work every day is so tiring, isn't it? Come with your brother, and I'll take you to work in a Wanlawan every day, it'll be super fast!"

Several thugs approached the girl with glib and slick words.

The girl, who came from the countryside, had never seen anything like this before.

"Don't come any closer! If you do, I'll call for help!"

In her anxiety, the girl's beautiful eyes filled with tears.

The girl's sweet, delicate voice excited the group of thugs even more.

"Go ahead and scream! Scream until the sky falls! No one will come to save you."

"Go ahead and scream! The more you scream, the more excited I get!"

A few hundred meters away, a Mercedes-Benz G-Class was parked on the side of the road.

Li Minghai was inside the car, observing the situation with binoculars.

His narrow, beady eyes were filled with an eager expression.

"They're so innocent! These country girls are so much more fun. Unlike those city girls who are all 'green tea' and slutty."

"Hehehe, as long as I make a move, young and rich, I'll save the beauty from danger, and I'll surely bewitch this little village girl."

Just as Li Minghai was about to make a move, a sudden roar of an engine came from behind.

Li Minghai was slightly taken aback.

"A V8? This sound is amazing!"

"No, it seems they're heading this way!"

Li Minghai quickly looked in the direction from which the sound came.

A red lightning bolt suddenly appeared from behind, hurtling towards them at breakneck speed.

Li Minghai's eyes widened immediately.

"Holy crap! A Ferrari? I've never seen this car in Donghai City before!"

As Li Minghai wondered what was happening, the fiery red horse galloped past him.

Li Minghai suddenly slapped his thigh!

"Oh no! I don't know which rich kid he is! I hope he doesn't steal my thunder!"

Li Minghai stepped on the gas, and the black G-Wagon shot off.

Unfortunately, it was ultimately a bit too slow.

The bright red Ferrari had already stopped in front of the thugs.

The thugs looked on with envy as the sports car drove up.

"Hai-ge has changed cars again! This car is so cool! I'm so envious! Hai-ge probably changes girls every few days!"

Zhang Yuqing looked surprised at that moment.

The next second, a figure stepped out of the car.

Upon seeing who it was, everyone present was stunned.
