Xing Nian slumped weakly on the side of the bed, his face haggard, his eyes filled with deep worry for Mu Huaichen's safety.

The scene in the video, the bloodstains on Mu Huaichen's coat, pierced her heart like a sharp blade, especially the image that suggested a serious abdominal injury, which made her heart ache, and tears silently slid down, soaking her clothes. She couldn't imagine what kind of harm the grenade had brought to Mu Huaichen, and she spent every minute and every second in agony, just hoping that he would be safe.

The night was deep, the stars were hidden, and Xing Nian curled up in the corner of the bed, weaving his thoughts and wishes for Mu Huaichen with endless prayers.

As the dawn broke, a faint blue hue appeared on the horizon. She managed to stand up, and the face reflected in the mirror was filled with fatigue and anxiety.

Helan Xi's disappearance again did not seem to bring a moment of peace to the manor.

Xu Li's tragic end, Xi'er's expulsion, and the increasingly strict security in the manor all show Helan Xi's cruelty and determination. The net he laid seemed to completely imprison Xing Nian in this endless darkness.

However, Xing Nian did not give up hope. She knew that only by saving herself could she see the light of day again.

So, she began to observe every corner of the manor quietly, looking for a possible way to escape.

But the manor's defenses were much tighter than she had imagined. Every pair of surveillance eyes was like an invisible shackle, leaving her nowhere to hide.

Until this day, an unexpected visitor broke the tranquility of the manor.

An old man with a cane and a serious face walked into the restaurant. Every step he took seemed so steady and powerful. Even without saying a word, he had an aura of authority. Although his clothes were not ostentatious, it was hard to hide his extraordinary and solemn identity.

Helan Fan looked serious, even with a hint of disdain, staring at Xing Nian: "Are you the young lady of Huaguo Mu Group, Xing Nian?"

Xing Nian ignored him, having already recognized this man in his heart as someone who looked exactly like Helan Xi.

She focused on the food in front of her, taking a sip of the rich seafood soup, but found the taste a little strange.

Seeing that Xing Nian neither responded nor looked him in the face, Helan Fan became furious, breathing out through his nostrils and pounding the ground with his crutch.

"You are the young lady of the Mu Group, but you are such a rude person! It seems that only your face is worthy of my son's attention. Apart from that, everything about your body is completely different from that bitch."

Xing Nian chewed the croissant with unusual force, then grabbed the seafood porridge on the table and threw it hard to the ground.

She glared at Helan Fan: "Bitch? You are so disrespectful and swearing. Your son and you are not good people! You are so cruel and cold-blooded!"

Helan Fan was furious, his eyebrows raised: "What do you mean?"

Xing Nian was not afraid at all: "Am I wrong? You are a rapist and a murderer; your son is a murderer who forced people into desperate situations, dug his own grave, and ultimately killed people!"

"Okay, very good!" Helan Fan gritted his teeth, "I was planning to let you go, but now, I have to teach you a lesson first! Let you understand that even if you are the young lady of the Mu Group, my Helan family will never allow you to be so presumptuous!"

After that, more than a dozen bodyguards rushed in from outside. The bodyguards who were monitoring Xing Nian quickly surrounded her and protected her behind them.

"How dare you!" Helan Fan shouted angrily, "Have you forgotten who is in charge of the Helan family?"

A bodyguard stepped forward, respectfully but firmly: "I'm sorry, Master. We are under the orders of the Young Master to protect Miss Xing at all times. No one except the Young Master can make us violate our duties."

Helan Fan's face became even gloomier. He didn't expect that his authority would be challenged like this. "Okay, very good. Since you are so loyal, I will show you the consequences of betraying the Helan family."

Following Helan Fan's order, more than a dozen bodyguards rushed towards the bodyguards who were protecting Xing Nian. They were determined to capture Xing Nian and teach him a lesson.

During this period, although Helan Fan had sent people to monitor her 24 hours a day and injected her with certain drugs to make her weak, Xing Nian may have developed a certain resistance to drugs due to her long-term exposure to drugs. Therefore, the effect of the drugs injected to her did not meet expectations. In order to seduce Helan Xi, Xing Nian would pretend to be weak every day.

Several bodyguards protecting Xing Nian confronted Helan Fan's bodyguards, but Helan Fan's bodyguards were numerous, so some of them stayed behind while the others went to capture Xing Nian.

They wanted to catch Xing Nian, but Xing Nian was as agile as a rabbit, jumping up and down. Several bodyguards were stunned and couldn't touch the corner of Xing Nian's clothes.

At the same time, Helan Fan also noticed Xing Nian's flexible posture. He had heard that his son would inject her with certain drugs every day, which would make him feel weak all over. But the Xing Nian in front of him didn't look like a weak person at all. He looked like a normal person who was not affected by the drugs.

Although Xing Nian was imprisoned in the villa these days, she was always observing the terrain inside the villa, so she knew which escape route was the most effective.

This is Helan Xi's private estate. Although Helan Fan would come here sometimes, these bodyguards would not come here. Therefore, they were not familiar with Helan Xi's estate. The luggage confused several bodyguards and finally they were thrown off.

Xing Nian tumbled down from the second floor of the villa and landed steadily in the garden of the manor.

The bodyguards came down shortly afterwards. They checked nearby but could not find any trace of Xing Nian. There were many green plants in the manor's garden, and Xing Nian was petite and hid among them, so the bodyguards found it difficult to find her for a while.

Just as she was thinking about how to get out, she keenly noticed someone behind her.

Xing Nian turned around suddenly and knocked the attacker from behind to the ground with a neat roundhouse kick.

The man was unable to withstand the blow and immediately vomited blood. Xing Nian then saw clearly that the person who came was actually Butler Xu.
