Chapter 777

Ruan Anxi picked up Ning Ran's phone and saw the name on the screen was “Captain Qiao.”

“He's the one protecting you?” he asked.

Ning Ran made no reply. She had no idea how he managed to guess it.

“Who are you that someone even protects you?” Ruan Anxi pressed on.

Still, Ning Ran remained silent.

“Are you that woman with the surname Lu? You can mobilize special forces?” he asked, looking suspiciously at Ning Ran.

“I'm not. Truly.”

“Then who are you? If you don't say, I'll slit your throat—”

Before Ruan Anxi could finish his words, Qiao Zhan's voice rang from outside. “Madam!”

As Ning Ran didn't pick up the phone, Qiao Zhan realized something was amiss and came in too.

She was just about to respond when Ruan Anxi pressed a scalpel against her neck.

Immediately, she didn't dare to reply.

Qiao Zhan had already entered, and upon realizing the lights weren't on, he tried finding the switch while shouting, “Madam, where are you?”

Ning Ran dared not make a sound in the darkness because if she did, it would be her last sound.

Soon, Qiao Zhan stopped yelling.

Having trained in the army for a long time, he was a professional, so he had already sensed danger and knew Ning Ran was in trouble.

“Bang!”

Suddenly, the door to the study room was kicked open and Qiao Zhan dashed in like a leopard.


In the darkness, Ruan Anxi wrapped his arms around Qian Zhan as if he were a snake, and before the latter could react, a scalpel was pressed against Qiao Zhan's throat.

Qiao Zhan had sensed there was danger inside, but he had no choice but to enter.

Moreover, he was confident in his speed and strength, but he didn't expect Ruan Anxi to be even speedier and nimbler, like a phantom.

Qiao Zhan was strong, but Ruan Anxi was like a poisonous snake, cold and sinister.

A leopard was much stronger than a snake, but that didn't mean the snake would be at a disadvantage.

“Don't move. If not, you'll die,” Ruan Anxi hissed.

Qiao Zhan obeyed and put up his hands.

He couldn't resist or give up his life, as Ning Ran would be in trouble if he died.

By rushing in recklessly, he could draw Ruan Anxi to attack him, giving Ning Ran the opportunity to escape, and he actually succeeded.

“Madam, you go first,” Qiao Zhan declared grimly.

“No, I—”

“Go!” Qiao Zhan roared.

“You're so loyal. That's great, but she can't go. If she moves, I will cut your throat, then catch up to her and cut hers. You will both die. Answer my question, and don't provoke me. That way, you may both live,” Ruan Anxi threatened menacingly.

“Go ahead.”

“Is her surname Lu? If she isn't, who is she?”

Qiao Zhan didn't dare reply, as he didn't know what was the correct way of responding.

“Speak! If you lie, I will kill him!”

Ruan Anxi pressed the scalpel harder, and the sharp blade cut Qiao Zhan's skin, showing blood.

“No, I'll tell you. I'm Ding Mi, an actress,” Ning Ran hurriedly replied.

“Actress? Madam? You're Nan Chen's woman?”

I'm screwed. I thought it would be fine if I gave him my stage name. I didn't expect to involve Nan Chen too.

Ruan Anxi didn't know Ning Ran and had never seen her before, but he knew from Ding Fei that Nan Chen's lover was an actress and was currently shooting in Livingsfill.

This guy calls her “Madam,” so she must be no ordinary person. Now that she mentioned she is an actress, she's likely Nan Chen's lover.

Ruan Anxi was highly influential in underground circles in South East Aploth. Not only was it because of his ruthlessness, but it was also due to his intelligence. If not, he would have long been killed long ago.

Before Ning Ran could reply, Ruan Anxi had already started laughing. He knew he was right.

“How coincidental that I come across Nan Chen's woman. Let's go.”

Go? Where though? Ning Ran and Qiao Zhan were both confused.

“You're Nan Chen's bodyguard? You're good at your job, but you must die because I'm taking her,” Ruan Anxi suddenly uttered.

Realization dawned upon Qiao Zhan. Ruan Anxi was planning on kidnapping Ning Ran.

“You can't kill him! Not only is he Nan Chen's bodyguard, but he's also a friend! If you kill him, Nan Chen will never let you off! I won't let you take me away too!” Ning Ran screamed.
