Seeing her calmly taking out a document, Du Ruize frowned slightly.

Thinking of something, the hope that had just sprouted in his heart was instantly shattered.

Ming Xi handed the document to the bald man, and immediately walked towards Jiang Mengyue.

"Be honest!" The bald man pushed her hard, Ming Xi stumbled and fell to the ground.

Du Ruize quickly helped her up, suppressed his dissatisfaction, and said to the bald man: "Tell your boss, the things have been delivered, can you let them go now?"

Ming Xi's eyes darkened a bit.

What Du Ruize said meant that this bald man was not the mastermind behind the scenes.

So who is planning all this?
The bald man sneered, "Do you think you are qualified to negotiate terms with our boss? I will hand over this document to the people above for verification. As long as our boss's plan is successfully completed, you will be let go. But if this The information is fake—”

When he said this, the smile on his face disappeared instantly, replaced by a fierce face.

"Just check it out, but I hope you can untie my sister first." There was no wave on Ming Xi's face.

The bald man took a deep look at her, turned around and strode away.

After waiting for a while, Ming Xi gave Du Ruize a look.

Because of years of tacit understanding, Du Ruize quickly understood what she meant.

He shook his head slightly, and the light of hope in Ming Xi's eyes dimmed immediately.

Since the bald man abandoned them here, it proved that a trap had been set.

It is not easy for them to leave this place now.

Ming Xi quickly came to Jiang Mengyue and untied the rope on her body.

"You traitor!" Jiang Mengyue stood up, raised her fist and was about to throw it at Du Ruize.

"Wait." Ming Xi stopped her, stared at Du Ruize and asked, "Now, I need you to answer a few questions for me."

She looked at Jiang Mengyue's injuries, "You didn't bring her here, and you didn't cause her injuries. You were just a puppet from the beginning to the end, because you were caught by the other party. That's why you have to do something to us, right?"

Du Ruize covered his face with his hands, and said in a decadent voice, "Mingxi, I'm sorry, all of this is my fault. But... I can't help but watch them hurt like a pair again."

Thinking of the current situation of the Sheng family, Ming Xi sighed in relief, "It's not important to say these things now, and I also know that you have your own difficulties."

Jiang Mengyue stopped thinking about it, and held her hand, "Sister, what should we do now? I was brought here after being knocked out, so I don't even know where this is."

"Rui Ze, now we can only rely on you." Ming Xi looked at him and said seriously.

After all, it was also her first time here, and he was obviously the only one who was most familiar with this place.

Hearing her calling him back to the previous address again, Du Ruize was stunned.

Seeing the resolute look on Mingxi's face, he gradually restrained his emotions, nodded and said: "Okay, I'll take you to the exit. If you can really escape, I hope you can take Rushuang to live in a hidden place , if any accident happens later, I will take care of the aftermath for you.”

He spoke decisively, as if he was ready to sacrifice.

Ming Xi didn't answer, but she already denied his words in her heart.

No matter what the future holds, they came in together now, so of course they have to go out together.

Du Ruize led the way to the stairs.

He stared at the exit above the stairs, "This ground door is made of marble, it's very heavy, and we can't move it with just the strength of the few of us."

Ming Xi stretched out her hand and pushed, but as expected, she couldn't move the gate even half a point.

"Then how did you get out before?" Jiang Mengyue asked curiously.

"This door can only be opened by pressing the switch outside, so usually someone will respond outside." Du Ruize's face was dark, "And now, there must be someone guarding outside, even if we really have a way to pry this door open , and the consequences are—”

When he said this, he paused, Ming Xi and Jiang Mengyue looked at each other, and understood what would happen if they sneaked away and were caught.

"Other than this, is there no other exit?" Ming Xi asked.

"No." Du Ruize replied firmly, "If there was, I would have found a way to take your sister out before."

Several people lowered their eyes, lost in thought, and the atmosphere around them was extremely gloomy.

After a while, Jiang Mengyue suddenly pointed at Mingxi's shoulder in surprise, "Sister! Is this... blood?"

When Ming Xi turned her head, she saw a few drops of fresh blood on the clothes on her shoulders.

The three raised their heads in unison, and saw blood dripping from a crack in the ground door from time to time.

"Be careful." Du Ruize protected them behind him, "Go down first, I'll see what's going on."

He grabbed a brick on the ground and prepared himself.

Ming Xi frowned, "Could it be that they already knew that there was something wrong with that document, so..."

Before she finished speaking, the ground door was suddenly and slowly opened.

The faces of the few people became more solemn, Du Ruize raised the brick in his hand, and was about to hit the person who came by hard.

Ming Xi held Jiang Mengyue's hand tightly, and protected her behind her.

However, in the next second, a long arm stretched out first.

But when he saw a shallow scar on the back of the man's hand, Ming Xi's expression changed again, and he quickly shouted: "Rui Ze! Wait!"

Du Ruize was about to swing the brick out, but when he heard her words, his arm froze in mid-air.

Jiang Mengyue looked at her inexplicably, "Sister, what's wrong?"

Ming Xi took a few steps forward, and the upper body of the man outside leaned in, revealing a sharp-edged face.

It's Shen Tinglu!

He really is here!

"Why... why is it you?" Du Ruize saw his face clearly, and the brick in his hand fell to the ground with a thud.

The man looked around blankly, making sure that there was no other danger inside them, his frowning brows relaxed slightly, "Come out quickly."

Ming Xi gave Jiang Mengyue and Du Ruize a positive look, and they walked out one after another.

The moment they left the basement, they smelled a strong smell of blood again.

Several people fell to the ground, with wounds all over their bodies, and the blood stained a large area of ​​the ground red, and the bald man was also lying on it, his eyes closed tightly without any response.

"Are you following me?" Ming Xi shifted her eyes to Shen Ting Lv with complicated emotions.

There was no emotion on the man's face, and his tone was serious, "It's dangerous here, we'll talk about anything after we go back."

Ming Xi knew the seriousness of the matter and nodded.

Du Ruize and Jiang Mengyue also followed her arrangement and got into Shen Tinglu's car with her.

On the way back, the atmosphere in the car was tense, and everyone was silent.

An hour later, Shen Tinglu parked the car at the gate of a manor.

They got out of the car and walked in with him.

When the servants in the manor saw Shen Tinglu, they were very respectful, and Mingxi also understood that he was the master here.

Although they knew that Shen Tinglu's financial strength was extraordinary, they were still surprised when they saw this luxurious manor.

"Bring the doctor here." Shen Tinglu entered the living room and instructed the housekeeper.

The butler brought several doctors to examine them.

"I'm fine, Mengyue is the one who is hurt the most now." Mingxi refused the doctor's examination and came to Jiang Mengyue worriedly.

Shen Tinglu frowned slightly, was about to say something, then thought of other things, got up and walked towards the room.

Out of the corner of Ming Xi's eyes, he caught a glimpse of the blood stains on the floor, and looked along the place where the blood dripped down, only to find that the blood flowed from Shen Tinglu's arm.

But he was wearing a black suit, so at first she only thought he was stained with someone else's blood.

Ming Xi got up subconsciously and walked over quickly.

Shen Tinglu walked into the room and was about to close the door when he heard footsteps following behind him, and then stopped closing the door.

He walked to the edge of the bed and sat down as if nothing had happened, and looked up at the person coming.

Ming Xi stared at her arm that was still bleeding out, her face turned pale, "You are injured."

"It's just a trivial matter." Shen Tinglu looked at her, and his thin lips raised a deep arc, "You don't want the doctor to examine your body for you, do you want me to examine you personally?"

"What do you mean by that?" Ming Xi stopped three steps away from him, looking down at him.

Although Shen Tinglu is sitting, the aura on his body is still very strong.

He looked up, looked at her and said lightly: "Don't you know what I mean? Isn't this what you hinted at me in China?"

As he spoke, he took out a document from his suit pocket, which was exactly what Ming Xi gave to the bald man.

Shen Tinglu spread out the document and stared at her thoughtfully, "This is your real purpose? Pretending to sleep with me is actually just to make them think that you really came to me to get these things."

Ming Xi took the document away and tore it into shreds, "You don't need to know these things."

She had just thrown the fragments of the document into the trash can when her wrist was suddenly grabbed by the man's big palm.

The warmth from his palm made Ming Xi's heart tremble involuntarily, and an indescribable complex emotion welled up from the bottom of her heart.

"What if I want to know?" Shen Tinglu stood up, bent his face close to her, and said word by word, "If I don't come here today, I don't know how affectionate you are for me. I'd rather take the risk alone than Don't want to betray me."

His thin lips were very close to her ears, and when he spoke, his warm breath sprayed down, burning her skin.

Ming Xi lowered her eyes and responded calmly: "You think too much, if there is a way to get what they want, how could I let myself take this risk. But I know how suspicious you are, want to It is not an easy task to get those materials from you."

"Really? Then I will do what you wish today." Shen Tinglu stood up, took out a USB flash drive from his pocket, and put it in her hand.

"This is?" Ming Xi had some thoughts in his heart.
