"Boss, it's Mr. Ruan." Assistant Mu spoke.
Xi Jiu responded with a faint "Mm," then pulled out his phone and sent a WeChat message to Ruan Munan in the car across the way.
[Xi Jiu: I'll head out first. Wait for me at the intersection. Take good care of Xiao Qi; her wound is causing her pain.]
Ruan Munan quickly replied with a "Got it."
Xi Jiu turned off his phone, his cold, dark eyes fixed straight ahead.
"Drive."
The black Rolls-Royce slowly started up and departed soundlessly.
Not long after it left, the heavily disguised Ruan Qi was escorted out through the back door by Shen Wenqian and Mo Lan.
Shen Wenqian said, "Your brother is here; he's waiting outside."
The girl replied weakly, shuffling softly toward the front door.
Suddenly, a figure dashed past from behind like a gust of wind.
Given the earlier water-splashing incident at the restroom door, Shen Wenqian and the others had been on high alert.
