After Black Moonlight revealed her true feelings, everyone panicked.

Gu Sheng didn't want to take a detour, so she chose the shortest shortcut.

This is the back of the park. A bush as tall as a person separates the buildings behind it. Because there is a garbage station, few people walk here even during the day, and it is even more deserted at night.

As it is a high-end industrial park, the garbage station is clean and tidy, and shrubs have been planted to block the view and minimize the presence of the garbage station.

Walk another ten meters or so, and you'll turn a corner to find the back entrance of the clubhouse.

Gu Sheng sensed a shadowy figure flicker around the corner and smiled.

He didn't think Lu Sijian would dare to attack him. If it was truly an ambush, then the other party would probably be disappointed.

Faced with overwhelming power, all techniques are futile.

He walked forward without hesitation until he heard a rustling sound above him, realizing that he was lying in ambush on the roof of the garbage station.

A sack fell from the sky and covered his head, followed by a sudden tightening on his shoulders as he was gripped by a rapidly descending force.

He reacted quickly enough, grabbing an arm, but the other person didn't run away; instead, they deliberately bumped into his arms.

Gu Sheng was knocked to the ground and immediately realized that the burlap sack was being pulled tight, and he couldn't break free.

However, he also managed to grab an arm, so the other party couldn't succeed.

“Lu Sijian?” he said, warning, “I advise you to let go, or I won’t be polite.”

As he spoke, he began to exert force, gripping that slender arm in his hand as if the bones were about to shatter in his palm at any moment.

All's fair in war, and he had no intention of negotiating with the other side; direct military suppression was the only way to win.

Such force would have made even a man scream in pain, but the other party didn't make a sound.

Gu Sheng sensed something was wrong and said in a deep voice, "Don't you want this arm anymore?"

The next second, a hook punch landed squarely on his chin, followed by a barrage of punches.

Gu Sheng couldn't believe it; didn't she feel any pain?

But he was clearly in pain; in the face of fierce aggression, he loosened his grip in pain, and the other party took the opportunity to break free, and the sack was quickly tied up.

A faint chuckle rang out. "I told you long ago, if I ever see you again, I'll beat you up again!"

Lu Sijian said she was going to beat him up, and of course she meant it.

Gu Sheng has made his fortune through underhanded tricks over the years. He is extremely cunning and has harmed many people by exploiting legal loopholes, yet he remains unscathed and is even ostensibly an outstanding entrepreneur.

Those victims were either corrupt themselves and were double-crossed by him, fearing exposure; or they were deceived until the very end without realizing he was a monster; or they were powerless to take revenge.

Over the years, the other party has gradually accumulated wealth and risen in social status, yet he has not suffered any retribution whatsoever.

But we have it today.

To greet the other party, Lu Sijian deliberately used her iron will to ensure that the other party could enjoy the cat-and-mouse game.

Gu Sheng tried to resist several times, but each time he was suppressed.

He has made many enemies over the years, but none of them have been able to make him suffer. He never expected that he would be caught off guard and suffer a setback today.

It was very cold, but he was still sweating profusely from being covered in sweat. The sweat slid down onto the wounds on his face, causing him great pain.

What angered him even more was his own powerlessness at this moment.

It felt like I was back in my childhood, where I could only passively take the beatings and couldn't do anything about it.

Overwhelmed by anger and lack of oxygen, he briefly lost consciousness.

Lu Sijian managed to stop before the iron wall failed, and quickly prepared to leave.

Suddenly, the system said in my mind: [Someone's coming!]

Two people came out from the left side of the club to check the situation, and someone else arrived from the right—one of Gu Sheng's bodyguards!

The path was narrow and unobstructed, making it difficult for Lu Sijian to escape from both sides.

[It was Gu Sheng's assistant who called the club.] The mechanical voice was filled with regret. [I should have even blocked the cell phone signal.]

That assistant was being too cautious; he had to make a phone call to confirm even for such a short journey of just a few minutes.

The iron walls and iron arms had failed, and the backlash was starting; Lu Sijian was simply no match for the attack from both sides.

Lu Sijian gritted her teeth. There was no other way; she could only rush to the left along the planned retreat route.

As she rushed to the corner, her muscles tensed, ready to pounce...

There was no ambush at the corner, only a warm embrace.

Sheng Yunchao, dressed in a black overcoat, quickly picked her up and covered her with his coat.

Two people were lying on the ground, their heads covered with identical burlap sacks, the openings tightly tied, wriggling and struggling on the ground.

He carried a person without hindering his movements; his steps were swift and agile, and he disappeared into the night, hidden in the shadows of the building.

-

Upon hearing that Gu Sheng had been attacked at the back door of the club and was seriously injured and unconscious, Zhu Jinming rushed out to check on her.

This club was Gu Sheng's secret property, and the manager also came with his men.

Everyone was shocked that someone actually dared to attack their boss.

The area around the club was immediately placed under high alert. Everyone was in a heavy mood, feeling that the boss was probably in grave danger.

The manager was calling 120 (emergency services), and the bodyguards were pacing anxiously. Zhu Jinming looked at Gu Sheng and felt relieved.

"Brother Sheng should be fine, just some soft tissue contusions," he said after a moment's hesitation.

After all, I had only been out of the hospital for a short time, and it was really just some superficial injury, not even a minor one.

"How could that be? The other party was so ruthless. The boss has been unconscious the whole time. He was most likely murdered..." someone retorted.

Just then, Gu Sheng suddenly stirred and woke up.

His expression changed as soon as he woke up. "I can't use my arm at all, it must be broken..."

These words sent a chill down everyone's spines.

"Quick, quick, go call the doctor!" The assistant had just turned around when he heard this and immediately shouted in grief and indignation.

Zhu Jinming was somewhat puzzled. Could it be that the other party had really tried to harm Gu Sheng and cripple him?

"But something's not right..."

"What's wrong with that? They went too far. Good for them, this grudge has become huge!"

Gu Sheng took a deep breath. He wasn't surprised that the other party would be so vicious, after all, he hadn't held back when he pinched the other party's arm, aiming to cripple him.

Such ruthless retaliation was not entirely unexpected.

A bodyguard stepped forward, hesitated for a moment, then grasped Gu Sheng's limp arm, pressed it up, and a soft cracking sound was heard from the bone.

"Alright." He wiped the sweat from his forehead and breathed a sigh of relief. "Luckily, Miss Mu taught me; it's just a dislocation."

With both arms reattached, Gu Sheng moved around and found that she could move freely.

He didn't break his leg or arm, except his face was swollen like a pig's head.

Despite expending so much effort and enduring his brutal treatment, she still managed to restrain herself from killing or maiming him...

Zhu Jinming: "Brother Sheng, do you know who it is?"

"It's Lu Sijian." Gu Sheng's tone was resolute.

Having been hit twice by her, he was absolutely certain that it was her.

He savored the taste of his anger, almost laughing in frustration. "Why isn't this time it aimed to kill me like it did when we were kids..."

The talking stopped abruptly.

The night wind howled, but his heart pounded wildly.

The person who tried to poison him when he was a child was not Lu Sijian.
