The aloof beauty always has weak legs; the crazy boss is too ruthless.

Chapter 120: He died here.

Before leaving the shop, Mu Sen told Duanzi to close down and not to stay there, but to wait for him at the tavern they had been in before.

Then he issued an emergency order to all of Bonnan's informants and undercover agents: "Prepare for battle, save your lives."

Because Mu Sen knew all too well the temperament of Hua Dongchen, that old fox. Once he found out that his son Hua Yin was in the hands of the Z country police, he would definitely not let them, his informants and undercover agents, off the hook.

The most important thing right now is to ensure their safety.

Survival has always been Mu Sen's top priority during his many years as an undercover agent.

How can we complete a mission if we can't even save our own lives?

After getting on the bus, Mu Sen called Lu Siqi, but Hua Xu answered instead.

An expected result.

"Where's Lu Siqi? Let her answer the phone first." Mu Sen knew his purpose. "If you want your son dead, I advise you not to even think about taking her."

"Don't threaten me, I won't touch her." Hua Xu glanced at Lu Siqi, who was lying unconscious on the bed, his calm eyes showing no change. "Lin Chen, how about we make a deal?"

"What a deal."

“You should know very well that as long as I hand that list over to Hua Dongchen, all your undercover agents and informants will have to pay with their lives to Hua Yin.” After closing the door, Hua Xu slowly took out a lighter from his pocket and, as usual, flicked the lighter, playing with the flame with his fingers. “I think you wouldn’t refuse to trade your life, Lin Chen’s life, for the lives of so many people.”

Upon hearing this, Mu Sen immediately scoffed, "I'm willing to give it, but does Huaxu dare to take it?"

"I wouldn't dare take your life." Hua Xu's fingers were already burning from the flames, but he still didn't stop: "So I've come up with another way."

After hearing Hua Xu's so-called "other method," Mu Sen realized that this man was truly insane.

"Your deal was to get me to do drugs?" Remembering that Shen Cheng was also addicted to drugs, Mu Sen instantly understood. "So Shen Cheng and I were just clowns in your eyes. Was Shen Cheng still being kept in the dark? He always thought that Hua Dongchen had sent someone to inject him with heroin, but it turns out that the mastermind behind it all was you, you fox!"

Upon hearing Shen Cheng's name, Hua Xu remained unmoved. "You should all know very well that if you cooperate with someone like me, you must be prepared to be betrayed by me. Especially you, Lin Chen, after so many years as an undercover agent in this dirty circle, how many people have you seen who are truly emotional?"

"I've seen people bite back, but I've never seen a fox like you who bites both sides." Mu Sen's eyes were full of mockery. He turned the steering wheel with one hand, saw a location message received on another phone, and after confirming the exact location, he asked him, "What exactly do you want? The whereabouts of your son Hua Heng? Or to kill Hua Dongchen and Hua Yin and take control of Huaxi Group?"

“I’m greedy. Besides what you’ve mentioned, I want something else.” Hua Xu stopped pressing the lighter and looked out the floor-to-ceiling window at the two helicopters parked on the tarmac. “I want to see if you would make the same choice as me when faced with the same desperate situation.”

Because he could never forget the scene when Hua Dongchen threatened him with his son Hua Heng's life: he had to inject heroin and become an addict in exchange for Hua Dongchen's trust.

The pain of making a choice, and the despair of actively picking up the syringe, aiming the pillow at your arm, and injecting yourself...

The thought of hiding in my room during each withdrawal episode, feeling that excitement like a dog seeing a bone when I see a syringe, fills me with nausea and disgust...

"Lin Chen, you should know that you have no choice." Hua Xu coldly reminded him, "Don't forget, Lu Siqi is still with me. I don't mind making her one of my kind. Of course, you don't have to care about the lives of those undercover agents. As for Lu Siqi, even if she becomes one of my kind, I will protect her for life."

Mu Sen immediately cursed: "Go to hell with your lifelong peace!"

Knowing full well that once he's made up his mind, he'll never change it, especially his "abnormal" possessiveness towards Lu Siqi, he'd definitely do something if he had such thoughts and acted irrationally.

"So what if it's drugs? I'll agree!" The veins on his hands, which were gripping the steering wheel, were bulging. This was the first time he had been caught off guard, and his weak points had been exploited by the other party. He had no choice but to obey.

But he learned his lesson and vowed never to trust a cunning fox again!
……

At 10:30 p.m., the first thing Lu Siqi did after waking up was to find Hua Xu, slap him across the face, and angrily scold him: "I trusted you so much!"

Hua Xu's right cheek was swollen from the slap, but he didn't feel hurt at all. Instead, he thought it was justified. "Is one slap enough? If not, keep going until you're satisfied."

"I'd rather not slap you even once, it's disgusting!" Lu Siqi pushed his hand away, her eyes blazing with fury.

She turned and walked downstairs, but was stopped by security personnel at the door, realizing that Hua Xu was not ready to let her leave.

“If you don’t want to cause Lin Chen any trouble, you’d better stay here obediently.” Hua Xu stood on the stairs, looking down at her. “Hua Yin is in your police’s hands now. Hua Dongchen is bloodthirsty.” Lu Siqi turned around angrily. “You’re the one who sent Hua Yin there, aren’t you? You’re using our country’s police force to help you block Hua Dongchen! Why did you do that! We clearly promised you that we would help you find your son! Why are you using us instead!”

“Because you, like Hua Dongchen, all treat me as a pawn.” Hua Xu slowly walked downstairs, his mature features showing no change in expression. “A pawn can only be kept as long as it has value. Once it has no value, it has to obediently let you discard it…crush it.”

As he approached her, a self-deprecating smile appeared in his eyes: "I just don't want to be any of your pawns anymore. Tell me, what did I do wrong? If you were me, would you willingly be a pawn that could be discarded at any time, whose own life might not even be spared, or would you take back the initiative and become the master of your own life?"

"..." Lu Siqi was speechless for a moment.

Because if she were in this predicament, she might also choose the same path as this man.

……

At midnight, when Hua Xu saw the surveillance video of Mu Sen unhesitatingly picking up a syringe and injecting all the drugs into his arm, he felt no sense of satisfaction as he had imagined.

In the video, Musen's pain as his rationality was gradually eroded after injecting drugs caused his face to contort in agony. He helplessly clenched his fists and punched the wall in an attempt to maintain his senses.

Upon seeing this, Hua Xu immediately shut down his computer and drove to the Hua residence.

Hua Dongchen, who was at the Hua residence, seemed to have been waiting for him for a long time. He was holding his sleeping "grandson" Hua Heng in his arms. When he saw him enter the house, he smiled and gestured for him to be quiet so as not to wake his grandson.

Having not seen his son for nearly two years, Hua Xu'an suppressed his excitement and quietly walked into the living room.

Just then, Hua Heng woke up and, seeing his father whom he hadn't seen in a long time, immediately jumped off his grandfather's lap with excitement, "Dad!"

After Hua Xu opened his arms and gave his son a real hug, he also noticed the assassin lurking in the shadows, ready to strike.

He knew very well that if he made even the slightest move to take his son away, both his son and his life would be lost.

So he didn't dare to act rashly.

After putting his son back to sleep and taking him to his bedroom on the second floor, he came downstairs to report to Hua Dongchen.

At this point, Hua Dongchen had already seen the surveillance video of Mu Sen using drugs.

Seeing Mu Sen's extreme suffering from drugs in the video, Hua Dongchen's grief over losing his son was slightly relieved. "The Lin family would never have imagined that the son they had carefully raised from childhood would end up as an addict! If Lin Xunzhang saw this video, he would definitely be so angry that he would die of anger because of his grandson."

He handed the computer to his assistant, Gao Jin, and said, "Copy this video and post it online. I'm going to make the Lin family lose all face this time!"

"Let those people in the Special Economic Zone know that if they dare to lay a finger on my son, I'll make sure they regret it!"

Hearing the conversation, Hua Xu finally understood that the real reason this old fox in front of him made Mu Sen take drugs was to control him and also to send a warning to the Lin family and other countries: he was not afraid to offend the Lin family in Hong Kong, and it was obvious that he was going all out for his son Hua Yin's life.

……

After Mu Sen's drug use video was posted online, it was immediately forwarded by netizens because he looked very similar to the male lead "Wu Ming" in the currently popular TV series "He Is Like Fire". There was even a super topic "Wu Ming XD" to discuss whether the person in the video was the military officer "Wu Ming".

Within just two hours, the video of "Nameless" using drugs became a trending topic on major websites. After seeing the video, Song Nuan, who plays the female lead in the drama "He Is Like Fire," immediately called Gu Shi from the military region.

Song Nuan, Gu Shi's wife, was nine months pregnant and nearing her due date. Upon seeing the video, she immediately recognized the man using drugs as Mu Sen and questioned him, "It's Mu Sen, isn't it? Let me tell you, Gu Shi, don't try to lie to me. I recognized the man in the video as Mu Sen at first glance!"

Faced with his wife's questioning, Gu Shi could no longer hide the truth. "We received news from Bangnan that Mu Sen's identity has been exposed and he is now under Hua Dongchen's control. We have contacted people there, but we haven't found out where Hua Dongchen has kept Mu Sen."

"What about Lu Siqi?"

"There's still no news about Lu Siqi." Seeing Lu Yao constantly making phone calls to his informant in Bangnan, Gu Shi, who was usually as calm as a mountain, also looked gloomy: "Tonight I will go to Jianghong, Yunnan with Lu Yao. Take good care of yourself these few days and try to stay in the retirement home. Don't go anywhere else."

Song Nuan knew she couldn't cause him any trouble at this critical juncture. She needed to let him focus on making plans so that Mu Sen could be rescued from that old fox, Hua Dongchen. "Don't worry, Mom and Dad will take good care of me. Don't worry about me."

It's fake, the injection was fake, don't get agitated.
