He hung up the phone.
Mu Jinyu saw Huang Qiuhua staring at him and glared back, sneering, "What are you looking at? I didn't even plan to capture you. It's your own men who invited me over. Now that things have turned out this way, you can't blame me."
Huang Qiuhua was lying on the bed, unable to move or speak, filled with resentment that had nowhere to go. In the end, her eyes rolled back, and she actually fainted from the anger Mu Jinyu caused.
"Yikes, don't die on me now. You're worthless dead."
Mu Jinyu quickly went over to check on Huang Qiuhua and found that she had only fainted from anger and not died, which made him breathe a sigh of relief.
In the time that followed, Mu Jinyu didn't bother to anger Huang Qiuhua any further. Instead, he sat quietly on the edge of the bed, looking at his phone, reading the news, and waiting for Mei Yinxue to bring people over.
About ten minutes later.
Mei Yinxue finally arrived with Ah-Biao and the other three underlings, the Four Heavenly Kings.
As they entered the room, their eyes were full of vigilance, fearing there might be a trap inside, and the call Mu Jinyu made to them was involuntary after his abduction.
But once they saw Mu Jinyu quietly sitting in the room playing with his phone, while Huang Qiuhua's four strongest underlings were lying motionless on the floor, they immediately felt at ease.
After all, wasn't it Mu Jinyu who had rescued Mei Yinxue from an assassination attempt before? Didn't that just show how formidable Mu Jinyu's skills were, and how unlikely it would be for him to be overpowered by Huang Qiuhua.
They had worried unnecessarily.
"Divine Doctor Mu, thank you so much. We've been looking for this bunch for a long time with no news. We didn't expect you to deliver them to us again. You really are our lucky star!"
Wang Zhengbiao looked at Huang Qiuhua and others who were unable to move and were glaring at him angrily. He smiled brightly at Mu Jinyu as he expressed his thanks.
"It's just a coincidence," Mu Jinyu said with a faint smile.
Mei Yinxue stood at the door, looking at Huang Qiuhua and her people who had already been subdued by Mu Jinyu, her expression filled with immense surprise. Turning to look at Mu Jinyu, her beautiful eyes shone with sparkling admiration.
After thanking Mu Jinyu a few more times, Wang Zhengbiao, under the gaze of Mei Yinxue, carried Huang Qiuhua and the four away, not revealing where they were taking them.
"If you're capturing them alive, you must want to interrogate them for information, right? Do you need me to unseal their mute points?" Mu Jinyu asked, noticing their actions.
"Is that possible? I thought you had poisoned them into muteness," Wang Zhengbiao stopped in his tracks, turned back and asked Mu Jinyu with surprise.
Hearing this, Mu Jinyu said irritably, "Although I do use poisons, I don't need them to deal with a few small-time thieves!"
Having said that, Mu Jinyu took out his Silver Needle, pricked several points on each person's body, and immediately unsealed their mute points.
Thus, although they still couldn't move, at least, apart from being able to move their eyes, now they could talk as well.
The moment Huang Qiuhua could speak, she immediately started cursing, "Mu Jinyu, you bastard, son of a bitch, if I survive today, I'll make sure you die a horrible death!!"
After cursing out Mu Jinyu, she turned her wrath onto her subordinates, "You bunch of useless idiots, old lady here barely escaped from that bastard, and you morons actually brought him back to me, my luck's run out!"
"Who allowed you to speak!"
Wang Zhengbiao, who was dragging Huang Qiuhua out, heard her cursing, especially at Mu Jinyu, and his face suddenly changed. He furiously slapped Huang Qiuhua, then covered her mouth with one hand, and dragged her out by her hair with the other.
Her scalp was in excruciating pain from being pulled, but with her mouth covered, she couldn't speak, her heart filled with an unquenchable hatred!
Damnit, Wang Zhengbiao, this worthless guy, was just a lackey of Mei Yinxue's. He wasn't even worthy to carry my shoes before, and now he dares to slap my face. What a fallen tiger bullied by dogs!
...
The Four Heavenly Kings under Mei Yinxue's command soon dragged Huang Qiuhua and her subordinates out of the room.
Knowing that Mei Yinxue's people were looking for them in River City, they had risked coming to River City to abduct Mu Jinyu with just the four of them.
As a result, Wang Zhengbiao and the others didn't have to go through a fierce battle. Once they pried out the whereabouts of all of Huang Qiuhua's underlings from their mouths, they would be able to capture these traitors in one fell swoop.
...
Watching Wang Zhengbiao and the others leave, Mu Jinyu sat on the edge of the bed, cocking his leg casually and asked with a smile, "I've captured your enemy for you, how much of a reward are you going to give me?"
Mei Yinxue had been smiling at Mu Jinyu all this while. Hearing his question, she couldn't help but glance at him and said softly, "Actually, I wasn't planning on giving you any money."
"What?!"
Mu Jinyu's eyebrows knit slightly as he was about to ask Mei Yinxue what she meant.
Didn't they agree that she would reward him over the phone?
Before he could question her, Mei Yinxue pounced on him.
...
Noon.
Mei Yinxue sat in front of the dressing table, combing her hair with an ivory comb and finally styled it into a married woman's coiffure.
"Time to get up and prepare for lunch."
After combing her hair, Mei Yinxue turned back to look at Mu Jinyu, who sat beside her with a blank gaze and a forlorn expression. She said cheerfully.
Mu Jinyu found it difficult to turn his neck, looked at Mei Yinxue, and then gave a bitter smile, "What is this supposed to mean?!"
Mei Yinxue smiled gently, stood up from the chair, came over to straighten Mu Jinyu's clothes, and said with a laugh, "Don't overthink it. I know you still have feelings for other women, and I have no intentions of forcing you to commit to me. I'm satisfied as long as you come to see me from time to time."
What else could Mu Jinyu say? He could only offer a bitter smile in return.
He felt he was at a loss. He thought by capturing Huang Qiuhua he would earn tens of millions from Mei Yinxue, but it turned out he ended up owing her billions!
Though thinking about it that way, he seemed to be complaining even though he had taken advantage.
Ah, how uncomfortable!
...
Ten minutes later.
Mu Jinyu and Mei Yinxue left the bungalow. Mei Yinxue drove, taking Mu Jinyu to a high-end restaurant.
Once they reached the private room, Wang Zhengbiao was already sitting there, having ordered dishes in advance. The waiter was serving the dishes.
When Wang Zhengbiao saw Mei Yinxue enter the room arm in arm with Mu Jinyu, he also froze for a moment.
Then, he noticed the married woman's hairdo on Mei Yinxue and the change in her aura.
The original Mei Yinxue had an aura that was cool and detached, like the snow lotus on an eternal snowy mountain, or the proud plum blossoms in a secluded valley, untouchable and awe-inspiring.
Now, she was like ice thawing, plum blossoms joyfully welcoming the arrival of spring, exuding a warmth and charm as she walked arm in arm with Mu Jinyu.
"Big sister, you are..."
Wang Zhengbiao stood up, looking at Mu Jinyu and Mei Yinxue with a puzzled expression as they arrived hand in hand, he asked.
"Can't you tell?"
Mei Yinxue asked with a smile.
Upon hearing this, Wang Zhengbiao also broke into a smile, looked at Mu Jinyu, and said, "Brother-in-law, time to hand out the red envelope."
