The villainous second male lead at the beginning? No! He's the white moonlight!

In the CEO's office, Su Shiyu glanced at the dozens of missed calls from Ye Linyuan, then at Lin Yan across from her, who had a menacing look on his face, and slowly placed her phone face down on the desk.

"The Dragon King is indeed the Dragon King. I never thought that even after being tormented by Ruoxi like that, you would still be able to find a way to escape. It seems that the entire Xiao family has underestimated you."

Upon hearing this, Lin Yan sneered and threw the button in his hand in front of Su Shiyu.

"President Su, stop trying to stall for time. Your sweetheart, Ye Linyuan, has already fallen to hell in the explosion along with your presidential elevator."

The thought of Ye Linyuan, whom he hated the most, dying made Lin Yan's lips curl into a smile.

I've avenged half of my grudge; the other half I need to settle with the Xiao family!

Lin Yan believed that this day would not be far off!

This unexpected capture made him see many things clearly. He had indeed been too soft-hearted in the past, unable to bear seeing the elders of the Dragon King Palace kill each other because of him. So, when faced with the fragmented Dragon King Palace, he chose to proceed slowly, hoping to subdue the others with his own abilities and eventually unify the Dragon King Palace.

Unfortunately, while his idea was good, it required a lot of time. If it weren't for his soft heart, which prevented him from unifying the Dragon King Palace, he wouldn't have been isolated and helpless in the initial operation, easily defeated by Ye Linyuan, and thus captured by the Xiao family.

Now, he must unify the Dragon King Palace with the swiftest and most decisive means to establish a foothold for himself.

Moreover, ever since Xiao Ruoxi captured him, he has been subjected to all sorts of torture without restraint, including chemical corrosion and poisoning, leaving his body riddled with holes.

Without the power of the Dragon King's Palace to help him search for various rare medicinal herbs to prolong his life, he personally estimated that he could only live for another year at most, after which he would die from exhaustion of his energy and spirit.

That is, dying of old age!

Moreover, besides needing the strength of a completely unified and integrated Dragon King Palace to survive, they also need to unify the Dragon King Palace to have the power to take revenge on the Xiao family.

Otherwise, the so-called revenge is nothing but a joke that can be easily exposed!

To unify the Dragon King Palace, he must first establish his authority to wash away the stains of being defeated by Ye Linyuan and captured by the Xiao family!

That's why, the moment he escaped, he rushed to the door, ready to pull off a big heist, to wash away half of his stain in one go, and at the same time rescue his benefactor, Zhao Jinyan.

According to the information brought to him by the person who saved him, Zhao Jinyan's misery during this period was no less than his!

While it's not fair to say she's worse off than him, she's definitely not much better off!

The reason I failed to repay the favor before was because I was not well prepared, and I was caught off guard by Ye Linyuan's intentional attack, as well as because I underestimated Ye Linyuan.

In short, it was due to a combination of various reasons that my plan to repay the debt of gratitude failed, and I even got myself involved. My personal abilities are absolutely not a problem!

But this time he was fully prepared. Ye Linyuan was nothing but a skeleton in a tomb, easily destroyed with a flick of his wrist!

And just like that, he dropped a remote-controlled bomb, and the mission was accomplished, sending Ye Linyuan to hell!

Hearing Lin Yan's smug and lengthy speech, Su Shiyu's pretty face turned pale at first, but she quickly calmed down and spoke in a detached tone.

"You underestimate A-Yuan. With A-Yuan's abilities, he'll be perfectly fine!"

"Hey, President Su, did I underestimate Ye Linyuan, or did you overestimate him? He's made of flesh and blood. Do you think flesh and blood could withstand that explosion? Do you think this is a science fiction movie where the protagonist is invulnerable to bullets and water?"

"I'm not afraid to tell you, to ensure absolute safety, I used high explosives. That explosion just now wouldn't have been enough to tear apart a mere Ye Linyuan, let alone a bus!"

Lin Yan sneered, took two steps forward, lifted his foot, and crushed the remote control he had just thrown in front of Su Shiyu into pieces.

"So now, President Su, do you still think Ye Linyuan is alive?"

Lin Yan originally wanted to see Su Shiyu panic, but to his surprise, Su Shiyu's expression remained as firm as ever, without the panic he had imagined.

"I believe A-Yuan will be absolutely fine. A-Yuan's abilities are beyond your imagination."

"Ha, you've really gone mad because of Ye Linyuan. No wonder you would discard Zhao Jinyan, who loves you deeply, like trash for Ye Linyuan's sake."

Lin Yan chuckled coldly twice, deciding not to argue with Su Shiyu, this bewitched woman, any longer. He finally revealed his second purpose for this trip.

"President Su, whether you believe Ye Linyuan is dead or still insist he's alive, it doesn't matter to me. All I want to know right now is, where is Zhao Jinyan?"

"Zhao Jinyan? How would I know where he is? Where did you get this information from?"

Su Shiyu remained calm and composed, her tone extremely indifferent, as if Zhao Jinyan was not her ex-husband, but just an insignificant person.

"Hmph, President Su, let's be frank. I've already investigated. I know about all the vicious things you did to Zhao Jinyan, and even all the things you had your secretary Liu Fei do to suppress him in Qianri Kingdom. So, when that big incident happened at your Su family's old mansion, Zhao Jinyan was outside. You couldn't possibly not know that."

"I advise you to obediently hand over Zhao Jinyan, otherwise I'll personally experience the methods you used on her!"

Su Shiyu showed no fear in the face of Lin Yan's threats; she simply stared coldly at Lin Yan, who was standing right in front of her.

"I told you, I don't know, and I simply don't know. Zhao Jinyan is someone I've never taken seriously. Do you think I would bother to care about such a piece of trash?"

After a pause, Su Shiyu continued.

"Although I don't know what your relationship with Zhao Jinyan is, I can tell you that I never care about the life or death of a good-for-nothing like Zhao Jinyan."

"Furthermore, you'd better pray that your plan goes perfectly and that I die here. Otherwise, I'll show you just how terrifying the Su family, one of the eight great families of Haicheng, can be when they go all out to take revenge on a person or an organization."

"President Su, you don't actually think I wouldn't dare kill you, do you? Don't be ridiculous. I dared to kill even Ye Linyuan, let alone someone as insignificant as you."

Lin Yan glanced at the floor-to-ceiling window not far away, then fired several shots at it with his specially made Colt pistol.
