Since Qi Fenglian couldn’t return for the time being, Cheng Su had no choice but to extend her time helping out at the fast food restaurant. Thankfully, there was still a telephone, allowing her to remotely oversee the main Joy Soon Loy store and company business. Although it kept her busy, she was still able to manage everything.
While Cheng Su was busy and tense, the mission for Qi Taiguo was equally stressful. As the heads of state settled into the villa, he watched over them like an owl, terrified that even the slightest issue might arise.
The conference went smoothly and was nearing its conclusion without any trouble—right when Qi Taiguo was about to breathe a sigh of relief, chaos broke out in the villa.
First, during the press conference, an unidentified gas appeared in the meeting room, causing pandemonium. All the important individuals were immediately arranged to be evacuated.
While the situation in the meeting room was still unresolved, Qi Taiguo felt a pang on his shoulder as a sentry in a guest room was attacked: "Spy, there’s a spy lurking."
Qi Taiguo’s head buzzed, and he instructed his companions through the walkie-talkie to block all exits while he himself sprinted toward the attacked guest room.
The guest room that had been attacked belonged to a certain country holding top-secret content; their bodyguards were guarding it, but now, they lay sprawled at the door.
Qi Taiguo radiated an intense aura as he barged into the room, where two of his own men were scattered on the ground in disarray.
One moved slightly, and Qi Taiguo rushed over. His comrade pointed towards the window and then passed out.
It was only then that Qi Taiguo noticed the window wide open, the gentle breeze causing the curtains to flutter softly.
There was the sound of rapid footsteps running towards the room, and Qi Taiguo heard a burst of garbled English exclaim loudly. Without a second thought, he dashed to the window.
Looking down, he saw a nimble figure just having scaled down the drainage pipe and jumped to the ground.
Qi Taiguo’s eyes widened abruptly as he yanked the curtain and leaped onto the pipe, climbing down swiftly like a gecko.
"Stop, you can’t escape!" Qi Taiguo yelled, simultaneously drawing his pistol from his waist.
Hearing Qi Taiguo’s shout, the runner hesitated for a brief moment, then sped off even faster.
Bang.
The gunshot from Qi Taiguo hit the ground just beneath the escapee’s feet, spraying dirt up from a hole.
The figure hesitated again, and in the critical moment of flight, that hesitation allowed Qi Taiguo to grab hold of the hat and yank it off, causing the person to turn around.
"You!" Qi Taiguo’s eyes widened, his face filled with shock.
