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

Chapter 122 Lost Contact
ten minutes later.

After watching the video of Mu Sen using drugs, Lu Siqi felt suffocated, an indescribable despair, and a heart-wrenching pain that made her body tremble uncontrollably.

Despair and pain intertwined, my mind went blank, and I had no idea how to continue on the road ahead.

Suddenly, the words Mu Sen had said to her on the pagoda that night began to echo in her ears: "If I'm unlucky and something really happens, or if the mission fails and the identities of all the undercover agents are exposed, you, Lu Siqi, must take my place and escort them safely back to the country."

Therefore, she is not in a state of confusion at this moment.

Because if it were Mu Sen, he would definitely look for a way out when there was no way, and would never waste time on grief.

Wiping away her tears, Lu Siqi opened the car door and got out. Facing Hua Xu, she told him her truest thoughts: "Whether you believe me or not, I swear to you, no matter what the final decision of our Z country government is, I, Lu Siqi, will definitely stand on the same side as you, Hua Xu. I will never leave Bangnan until Hua Dongchen is brought down and your son Hua Heng is rescued."

She raised her hand, her eyes resolute as she declared to the man before her: "If I, Lu Siqi, leave Bangnan before rescuing your son Hua Heng, may I die a horrible death."

The word "death" was submerged in Hua Xu's palm.

Hua Xu covered her mouth with his hand, "I don't need you to make a solemn oath to prove anything. I know you will do what you say, because from the very beginning, I, Hua Xu, decided to cooperate with your special zone because of you, Lu Siqi."

"Compared to your special zone, I'd rather trust you, Lu Siqi, and Lin Chen."

He said he trusts?
This means that what Musen injected in the video might not have been drugs at all.

Seeing the expectation in her eyes, Hua Xu withdrew his hand and said to her with a self-deprecating smile, "I underestimated Lin Chen. I thought he would give up at the last moment. After all, he was born into a family like the Lin family. He didn't need to risk his life. But for those undercover agents, and for you, he still chose to gamble with his life."

"He won, and I accept my defeat wholeheartedly."

He pulled a cell phone out of his pocket and handed it to her. It was the one Mu Sen used to contact informants and undercover agents. "I've already replaced the heroin inside. Lin Chen only injected ordinary hallucinogens, which won't affect his body."

"The choice is yours; how you choose to proceed is up to you."

"Whichever path you choose, I will respect it."

……

Lu Siqi knew that the road was made by walking, and no matter what lay ahead, only by boldly stepping out could one find a way to survive.

What she needs to do now is to use her skills to find a way to survive for all the undercover agents and informants.

Because this is also the path that Musen wants to take.

So after saying goodbye to Huaxu, she first went to a shopping mall and bought two dresses and high heels of different styles, then bought makeup tools and a wig before going to the restroom.

Twenty minutes later, after finishing her heavy makeup and putting on a wig, she looked in the mirror and, after confirming that she was completely different from her past self, she put on sunglasses and boldly walked out of the mall.

Looking around, she discovered that there were indeed some people searching for her in the shadows.

Everything went as she expected: it was impossible for Hua Xu not to have Hua Dongchen's spies around him.

Hua Dongchen must have known that she would reunite with the undercover agents after taking Hua Xu hostage, which is why he let her leave the villa. His purpose was to use her to find the undercover agents' meeting point.

She hailed a taxi, got in, and glanced around to make sure the suspicious-looking people had already entered the mall and weren't looking for her. Then, she told the driver in English where she wanted to go.

The driver, seeing her blonde hair, heavy makeup, sunglasses, and fluent English, assumed she was European or American and enthusiastically introduced her to the fun places in Sanjiang.

After talking with him for a few minutes, Lu Siqi got out of the car at the next shopping mall. Watching the driver drive away, she went to another exit of the mall, hailed a taxi, and then told him her actual destination.

Twenty minutes later, the taxi arrived at the Sanjiang red-light district.

It was late at night, the busiest time for bars and nightclubs.

Lu Siqi took off her golden wig, changed into another dress from the shopping bag, took off her high heels and put on flat shoes before arriving at the Chinese-style tavern.

Duanzi had been staying at the bar for the past two days, helping the owner when things got busy. He had just finished serving drinks to a customer and didn't recognize Lu Siqi, the woman who walked in.

Finding the boss, Lu Siqi took out Mu Sen's phone face to face, identified herself, and then announced her next decision: "You must take separate flights back to Z country tomorrow. The situation is dire. If the list falls into Hua Dongchen's hands, all of Commander Mu's sacrifices will be in vain."

After a moment of contemplation and some internal struggle, the boss felt that the only way to avoid causing trouble for Commander Mu Sen was to leave Bangnan: "Don't worry, Commander Mu said before that we all have to listen to you. If you tell us to go back, we will all go back."

Lu Siqi glanced at the jokes outside and said, "Please take the jokes back safely as well."

"Don't worry, Miss Lu. Commander Mu instructed us to take good care of Brother Duanzi. With us here, we will definitely not let Duanzi suffer any injustice."

……

After all the arrangements were made, Lu Siqi left the tavern. Before leaving, she glanced at Duanzi, who was still busily working inside. She suddenly remembered the day she arrived in Jianghong, Yunnan, when she and Mu Sen squeezed onto that dilapidated motorcycle, and the scene at the tattoo shop where Duanzi would always give her the food he brought...

Images unfolded in my mind like a growth chart.

Yes, they have all grown up.

That cowardly and timid person has now become brave.

She herself is no longer as afraid of social interaction as she used to be, and has begun to dare to handle some unexpected events on her own.

Thinking back to how she initially came to carry out this mission only to investigate her father, and incidentally, to rebel and run away from home to escape blind dates...

At that time, she certainly never imagined that her life would be changed because of this mission.

After thinking about it carefully, although everything has changed, it also seems like everything has changed.

Just like Mu Sen said before: "You are not the kind of timid, cowardly woman who would be content with the status quo. Your heart is clearly restless, so why do you always hide your true self?"

So, as she got into the taxi again and looked at herself through the window, she smiled slightly and thought to herself, "Lu Siqi, so this is the real you."

"You know what? I really like you the way you are now."

"I really like that kind of thing."

……

At 3 a.m., two days and two nights had passed since Musen went missing.

Gu Shi's phone rang, and seeing that it was Mu Sen's number, he quickly answered it.

Hearing that it was Lu Siqi's voice, he finally relaxed a little, especially after hearing that Mu Sen hadn't injected drugs. He felt much more at ease: "What do you need me to do for you now?"
