"In a good mood?" Jin Liwei asked when he picked up his wife from Eve Holdings.
She nodded but didn't elaborate. He didn't mind. As long as she was happy, he was pleased. There was no need for her to tell every single thing to him. He trusted her. If she wanted to tell him, then he would listen.
After reaching Dragon Palace Home #10, they switched vehicles. This time, they left their own security staff and took only those from Shadow Winds.
"Are you sure that you want to come?" Jin Liwei asked for the twentieth time.
"Of course." Iris' tone was certain. "Don't worry too much. I'll be fine."
His expression didn't ease even after she patted his cheek. He tried persuading her to return and stay at home again but to no avail. When he sensed that she was getting annoyed, he could only stop. He didn't want to destroy her original good mood. It wasn't good for her health and that of their babies.
Thanks to Ketchup's excellent navigation assistance, they avoided the congested traffic and arrived at their destination faster than expected. The old, abandoned industrial zone was eerie even during daytime.
The huge gates opened to let them in. Armed guards with cold, emotionless eyes appeared and watched their vehicles make their way inside the compound.
Jin Liwei had already been here before so he was no longer that affected by the dangerous atmosphere in the place.
Iris didn't bat an eye either. To her, this was child's play compared to how the Vetrov organization operated in her past life. Nevertheless, she personally still didn't like places like this. It was impossible to completely avoid Shadow Winds though because it was her older brother's group and her AI son worked in it as well.
Lu Zihao was waiting for them at the renovated old warehouse's main entrance which now served as Shadow Winds' headquarters. Like Jin Liwei, Iris could sense that he disapproved of her presence today.
"I'm not leaving," she said as soon as she stepped out of the vehicle.
"Hard-headed girl," Lu Zihao muttered but didn't bother objecting to her presence anymore.
"Hi, Boss Drakon!"
A couple members of ShaWn accompanied Lu Zihao to welcome them.
Iris nodded at them. "Hello. Good to see you again."
"Follow me," Lu Zihao said before his subordinates could waste any more time fangirling and fanboying on his sister.
Jin Liwei held his wife's hand as they followed his brother-in-law inside.
Later, they arrived at a heavily guarded area. It was a surveillance room dedicated to monitoring the holding cells. [Read official chapters on W e b n o v e l (dot) com. Please stop supporting piracy. Also follow author on Instagram: @arriacross]
The leader and key members of ShaWn were present as was Bacon whose black, fluffy tail immediately rotated like helicopter blades upon seeing his parents in one of the computer monitors.
A teenage-looking man was in charge of the holding cells. Jin Liwei had met him before when he came at the headquarters to beat up Jin Chenggong.
Iris sat on a comfy couch which looked out of place among the other basic furniture in the room. Lu Zihao had it added for the comfort of his pregnant sister after learning from Jin Liwei that she insisted on coming today. His subordinates even prepared a rather impressive variety of drinks and snacks for her.
