Kicked out of a wealthy family? I became a rich and beautiful woman thanks to the system.

"Wait a minute! Brigadier General Budi seems to be injured."

One of the officers seemed to have spotted Buddy, and Wen Yao took advantage of this moment to run away with Song Zhiqian.

After running through the corridor for a while, the road ahead gradually became clear.

Wen Yao took out another smoke bomb and threw it out.

After several twists and turns, the two finally found the stairs leading downstairs.

The entire base was no longer as quiet as before, and alarms sounded everywhere.

"Wow, Wen Yao, this is so exciting! I never imagined there was such a way to play in my life."

Wen Yao was already panting heavily. Song Zhiqian couldn't see anything, so she had to pull him along as they ran.

"Wen Yao, if we really escape, you'll be like my second sister!"

"Shut up, don't you think you have enough trouble already?"

There was a faint light ahead.

Wen Yao is overjoyed

"Look, the door is right in front of us."

The two ran with all their might.

But this door is just the entrance to this building; the base is much larger.

Just as the two were about to reach the door, an armored vehicle appeared out of nowhere and slowly approached them.

Wen Yao and Song Zhiqian exchanged a glance, unsure of what to do.

"System, come out now! If you don't come out soon, your host is going to be sent away!"

[Host, I'm just a system, not omnipotent. However, things might still turn around, so don't worry.]

A man wearing a custom-made military uniform from the Star Moon Society stepped out of the armored vehicle opposite. The man was tall and had a strong presence, with a murderous aura in his eyes that was not commensurate with his age.

"You've made a mess of my base, and you think you can just leave?"

After the base's alarm sounded, Xie Huai turned on the base's infrared monitoring and discovered that the smoke grenade was so powerful that even the infrared monitoring couldn't see what was happening inside the base.

Xie Huai had his driver take him to the base building and waited for them at the entrance.

"We didn't want to come here. It was clearly your people who captured us. Are you from the Star Moon Society or the militia? What does the civil war have to do with us? We are Chinese."

Wen Yao grew angrier the more she thought about it. Why was she brought here? What did it have to do with her, an outsider, that the two sides were fighting a civil war?

"Besides, your army is too corrupt! A brigade commander is actually taking on private jobs and even wants me to be his sixth wife. If you had a different brigade commander, this battle would have been won long ago!"

Those who have nothing to lose are not afraid of those who have something to lose. In any case, Wen Yao is now surrounded by enemies on all sides, unable to retreat or break through.

After Wen Yao finished speaking, everyone looked at her with surprise; no one had ever dared to speak to Xie Huai like that before.

Xie Huai's eyes revealed disdain; she must be tired of living.

While pondering how to deal with Wen Yao

"Brother, I know her."

Xie Ling suddenly got out of the car.

Today, she and Xie Huai came to the base together. They had only gone halfway when they heard that someone had broken into the base. Unexpectedly, it was Wen Yao.

After seeing Xie Ling, Wen Yao could roughly guess that he was from the Star Moon Society.

"Wen Yao, it's Xie Ling! We're all saved!"

Song Zhiqian calmed down after seeing Xie Ling.

Wen Yao also felt that at least there was still a chance for things to turn around.

"you know?"

Xie Ling wore a white cheongsam, her hair fell straight down her back, and her thick bangs still completely covered her forehead.

“Yes, we’ve known each other for a long time. Wen Yao is my friend, a noble lady from the Dragon Kingdom, but your soldiers actually captured my friend.”

Xie Ling is really something. He saved Wen Yao for his own personal feelings and even made up a bunch of lies. He doesn't even care whether Wen Yao is actually a member of the Danli Group.

Wen Yao immediately puffed out her chest proudly.

Xie Huai had just spoken in the Dragon Kingdom language, so Song Zhiqian understood him, and he quickly added...

"That's right! And me too. My name is Song Zhiqian. My family is one of the four great families in China. Song Zhen is my older sister. You might even be able to find my picture online!"

Although Xie Ling had never heard of Song Zhiqian, Xie Huai knew him. His Xie family also had business dealings with Longguo, and he was familiar with several of the wealthier families in Longguo.

He gave his assistant a look, and the assistant immediately searched online for photos of all the members of the Song family.

"Brother, your men have kidnapped my friend. You need to give me an explanation."

Xie Ling has always been a spoiled and willful little princess in the Xie family.

"Buddy, why did he arrest you?"

"Because he took on a side job. Someone in China was trying to kill me and contacted him. If you don't believe me, you can check his account. Someone just transferred ten million into his account."

Xie Huai had always turned a blind eye to his subordinates doing such things in private, but at this moment, Xie Huai's assistant put his phone in front of Xie Huai.

Sure enough, I received a family photo of the Song family online.

The two people opposite us are no ordinary individuals. If the Star Moon Society members kill Wen Yao and Song Zhiqian, wouldn't that cause a huge problem?

This could determine the course of the war.

"Tie up Buddy, strip him of his military rank, and throw him into the water dungeon."

Song Zhiqian and Wen Yao looked at each other in dismay. The brigade commander, who had been so high and mighty just moments before, was about to be thrown into the water dungeon.

"Buddy's gone just like that?"

“I already shot him once, and I haven’t even taken the bullet out yet. If he goes into the water dungeon like this, he definitely won’t survive more than three days.”

Both of them looked quite distressed, even though Buddy almost killed them.

However, both of them grew up peacefully in the Dragon Kingdom and had never seen anything like this before.

Xie Ling, on the other hand, looked quite satisfied.

"That's more like it. Don't be surprised. That's how our Star Moon Army is. Military merits bring money and houses, while mistakes get you thrown into the water dungeon."

Song Zhiqian asked timidly.

"Um... does 'water dungeon' mean it's entirely made of water?"

Xie Huai said calmly

"The standards vary from place to place. In any case, most water dungeons are in the basement. The whole room is filled with water, which is about knee-deep. There is no bed or chair inside."

The prisoners could only stand in their cells forever. However, our Star Moon Army is different in one way: there are snakes in the water. At first, we only put one male and one female in, and we don't know what happened to them.

If Buddy can still get out in three days, he'll be spared.

Wen Yao swallowed hard.

Why wait three days? We can retrieve the body from the water dungeon tonight.

Song Zhiqian also looked distressed. He held Wen Yao's arm tightly, never letting her go. The more arrogant he was in the capital, the weaker his legs were now.

"Um, Mr. Xie, now that the misunderstanding has been cleared up, can you let us leave? Don't worry, we can compensate you for all the losses at your base."
