[GB] Boss Ruan, your husband doesn't want you anymore.

Xiaoyun frowned and asked, "Where is this ship going? Can it change course?"

Ruan Qian'an led them to the control panel. The people inside seemed unconcerned about what was happening outside, and judging from their attire, they were not part of the group.

Xiao Xin followed behind Ruan Qian'an and said, "You didn't figure this place out a long time ago, did you?"

Ruan Qian'an nodded: "More or less correct."

Ruan Qian'an came to the cockpit and said, "Go to this place."

Upon seeing Ruan Qian'an and his group enter, those people didn't even raise their heads, numbly continuing with their own tasks.

Xiao Xin, Xiao Yun, and Qin Ru nodded. As long as they could get off the ship and onto land, it didn't matter where they went.

But Ling Shu alone frowned deeply and said without hesitation, "We can't go to this place. Are you going to your death? Do you even know what kind of place this is?"

I can tell you with certainty that this place is ten thousand times more dangerous than where we are now. You must not go there.

Ruan Qian'an: "Oh, this is the closest place to the ship, and you know this place very well?"

Ling Shu sighed: "I won't say anything about your ignorance, but just because it's close by, you're going to go to this place so recklessly."

You're going to ruin everyone's life. You don't even understand what kind of place this is.

Qin Ru, clearly skeptical, asked, "Is a place really that dangerous?"

Ling Shu snorted coldly and said, "That place is a place that eats people without spitting out the bones; it's a no-man's-land."

Those who are notorious there are people who cause headaches for various countries; most of them are wanted criminals. The people here have no regard for law or order; death is commonplace. They act recklessly, disregarding their own lives and even less so the lives of others. This place, composed of a group of true outlaws, is called Dark City.

Ruan Qian'an: "Whatever you want, but I'm getting off here."

After Ruan Qian'an finished speaking, Ling Shu's gaze towards her changed: "Why do you insist on going to this place? What is your purpose? Who exactly are you?"

Ruan Qian'an said, "I am just an ordinary person."

As for why I went there, it's simply because it's close by.

Ling Shu sneered: "I noticed something was wrong with you the first time I met you. You could have easily subdued me, so why were you captured by these people? That's the first point that's illogical."

The most illogical thing is that ordinary people would avoid such a place altogether; there's no need to risk your life. You need to explain why!

Ruan Qian'an smiled and said, "No comment."

"And I don't need to report to you which way I want to go. If you don't want to get off the ship if I go this way, I won't force you. Why be so suspicious?"

Seeing the tension between the two, Xiaoxin stepped forward to persuade them, "Qian'an, Ling Shu's concerns are reasonable; he just doesn't know how to express them well. Please don't be angry."

Xiao Xin then said, "Or you could just go around it from the side."

Ruan Qian'an's smile remained unchanged as she calmly asked Xiao Xin, "Do you also think I want to harm you?"

Xiaoyun strongly disapproved of Ruan Qian'an's behavior and said, "It's normal to have such worries. Why are you being so petty? Or are you getting angry because you were touched on?"

Ruan Qian'an wiped the blood off her hands with a black cloth, paused for a moment, and said, "You're trying to smear me, and all I did was ask one question, and you're already getting angry?"

"I don't need to tell you how I want to go, and you don't need to worry about me, right?"

Xiaoyun scoffed: "We were kind enough to care about you from the beginning and even put a coat on you. Now that we have a legitimate reason to doubt you, you're acting like this, so ungrateful. What are you pretending for?"

Ruan Qian'an's smile vanished completely, and Qin Ru frowned as she retorted to Xiaoyun, "You helped her, but she also helped us get the key to open the cage. She doesn't owe us anything. What do you mean by saying that? Who is the ungrateful one here?"

Qin Ru continued, "Besides, she got off the ship herself, and we didn't. What are you afraid of? Why are you being so aggressive? She didn't force you to get off the ship, so what harm could she do to you! Are you sick in the head?"

Ling Shu stood aside with his arms crossed and said, "Where do you think you can run? What if there's someone in the alley who's meeting with her? Then none of us on the ship will be able to escape."

"Besides, I just asked her to explain why, and the fact that she didn't even explain only proves that she's guilty."

After Ling Shu finished speaking, the expressions of the others changed instantly.

Qin Ru persisted in her rebuttal, saying, "If I really wanted to harm you, I wouldn't be wasting my breath arguing with you here."

Xiaoyun: "You're only speaking up for her because she got revenge for you, but you should also think about why she did it. Who would help a stranger for no reason, just because she says she simply likes you? You believe that? Don't be silly!"

After Xiaoyun finished speaking, Qin Ru fell silent.

Those who followed had obviously heard these words as well. Their expressions all changed.

Someone said to Ruan Qian'an, "Just tell us the reason, we haven't made things difficult for you."

Some people were looking at Ruan Qian'an with ill intent, fearing that she might suddenly attack someone.

Another person said, "I've also heard of that Dark City. It's practically a place where you never come back. Isn't this just sending us to our deaths?"

Someone suggested, "Let's use a small boat to throw her off now; she hasn't helped us at all anyway."

"Just let her go by herself. Giving her a boat is already very generous. She didn't do anything, and we're still helping her like this."

The others chimed in, "Yes, yes, I agree."

Ruan Qian'an looked at the person who had stood against her because of just a few words, but she felt no emotion. She had experienced this kind of thing many times before.

Without saying much, she readily agreed to their request: "It seems this is the best way at the moment."

Everyone was taken aback when Ruan Qian'an agreed so quickly.

Ruan Qian'an waved her hand and followed him outside, showing no embarrassment or anger at being rejected.

Ling Shu: "Wait! Even if you're leaving, you should at least explain why."

Ruan Qian'an coldly addressed Ling Shu, "Do you dare to listen to what I say? Are you worthy?"

Upon hearing Ruan Qian'an's words, the people on the boat were displeased.

"You're really interesting. Is there anything you can't say?"

"I think those are all excuses."

"Don't let Ling Shu actually guess right."

"That's it."

"Letting her go like this is like releasing a tiger back into the mountains!"

As they spoke, these people subtly surrounded Ruan Qian'an. One of them said, "You have to give us an explanation. What if you're going to find reinforcements? How many of us can beat you?"

Ruan Qian'an: "I already said it's because it's close, but you don't believe me."

"Are you really trying to die by deliberately doubting me like this?"

Qin Ru pushed aside one of the people who couldn't understand human language: "Don't go too far. Look how ridiculous you are now."

"Don't you even remember how you looked when you first met her? If she really wanted to harm you, do you really think you could survive? You shameless bunch."

She said to Ruan Qian'an, "These people are crazy, don't take them to heart."

Ruan Qian'an raised an eyebrow and looked at Qin Ru with interest: "I didn't expect you to be so feisty."

Ruan Qian'an smiled with interest and continued, "But you only said that because you didn't want them to be killed by me, right?"

"Then so be it."

After saying that, she walked out.

Qin Ru is indeed very kind.
