Soon, they were aboard the tram and making their way out to the main entrance of the villa.
Xiao Luo sat down behind Fu Yiren with his legs crossed and began the healing process using his Yi Jinjing. It did not take too long for her to stir from her state of unconsciousness.
When Fu Yiren awakened and opened her alluring eyes, her natural charm immediately caught everyone’s attention They were lustrous and inviting and made her look like a vixen. Her waist was slender and accentuated her exquisite curves, while her fair face was so soft and supple. Her looks drove the men crazy.
Suzuki Ikuo, Mute, and Deaf were all mesmerized by her beauty as Fu Yiren was only covered up by a jacket, exposing her slender legs in a very suggestive way. The three men looked like the wolves who had found prey and could not help swallowing a big gulp of saliva.
In a daze, Fu Yiren was still confused about how she got there, but when she saw three strange persons in white bio-suit, she reacted immediately. She bolted up and struck Suzuki Ikuo with her hand like a praying mantis.
She made her intentions clear and struck with venom like a deadly rose!
The three men were shocked as they did not expect such a sleeping beauty to turn into a deadly assassin right after she had woken up.
“They are with us!”
A familiar voice came from behind her and Fu Yiren was stunned. Her hand suddenly stopped a mere ten centimeters away from Suzuki Ikuo’s neck. When she turned around and saw Xiao Luo, her killing intent vanished and she started smiling blissfully as any child would when they met someone they trusted.
“Mie, so you have come to save me.”
Fu Yiren became a little emotional and her eyes reddened. She had always been strong and independent, but she melted when she saw Xiao Luo, for she had fallen for him. In fact, she was obsessed with him. She had once even tried to trick and force him to sleep with her. While she was being held captive, Xiao Luo had always been on her mind. The last thing that she had expected was for him to be the first person she saw after being rescued. It thrilled her that the man she always craved for and dreamed of was standing here right in front of her.
Before Xiao Luo could react, Fu Yiren had already jumped into his arms and hugged him tightly.
Being in such close proximity, Fu Yiren’s fragrant toxic fumes were being absorbed through Xiao Luo’s skin. The closer they were, the more potent the poison was. Had she been hugging an ordinary person, he would have already died. However, Xiao Luo’s Yi Jinjing ability could neutralize the toxins, making him immune to all poisons and her hug caused him no harm.
Xiao Luo had thought to push her away but quickly realized that she must have been through much torture and pain in the research facility. It would simply have been too cruel to do that. So he coughed uncomfortably to get her attention and said, “It’s my mission to rescue you this time!”
Fu Yiren smiled like a blooming rose and said, “You saved me from hell. I don’t care if it was because you were assigned for the mission or if you came voluntarily. I have said before, we are a match made in heaven. I cannot even begin to thank you enough for saving me, and I am willing to repay the debt with my body.”
When she finished speaking, she spontaneously brought her lips to his.
However, just before their lips met, a hand got in the way.
“Mie, why are you so cold?” Fu Yiren protested. She had expected Xiao Luo to let her have her way this time.
“I am cold? Haven’t you had enough of this place?” Xiao Luo snapped. He gently pushed her away.
“Fine, no kissing. But let’s hug awhile more,” Fu Yiren moaned, stomping her foot on the floor in a tantrum.
Xiao Luo merely ignored her and walked to the end of the train.
Suzuki Ikuo, Mute, and Deaf watched in envy. They were dumbfounded and couldn’t understand how Xiao Luo could reject such a pretty woman when she was literally throwing herself at him. Oh, my god, Xiao Han-kun just rejected her. Heaven should punish him for wasting such a great opportunity!

Fu Yiren had lost her composure after seeing Xiao Luo walk away from her but soon calmed down. Besides, she was severely weakened and needed to rest for a while.
“I discovered this in the database. This is a list of names of those involved in this genetic modification project, and they include Yamashita Tomotake and Matsushita Take. There is a total of ten names here. You’ve been here for quite a while, so you’d probably know about it more than I do. Take a look at the list and see if anyone has been left out, and if this list is accurate,” Xiao Luo said, handing her the list of names.
Fu Yiren checked it carefully and nodded. “Yep, it’s these ten people. This entire facility was pioneered by Kuroda Kiyotaka, the cabinet minister of Ri nation, and his anti-Hua group. On top of that, the Mei nation was also involved, and this is a collaboration between the two countries. I think Kuroda Kiyotaka is the point of contact with the Mei nation and is fully aware of the proponents of this project on their side.”
“As the prime minister of Ri nation, wasn’t Anpei aware of this collaboration?”
Xiao Luo had a strong suspicion about the current prime minister of Ri nation, as he was a member of the right-wing party. Most of the citizens of Ri nation were friendly to Hua nation, but Anpei played a significant role during the dispute on fishing rights and ownership of strategic islands.
Suzuki Ikuo was shocked by Xiao Luo’s words and immediately wondered if he was planning to assassinate their prime minister.
Fu Yiren shook her head, “Although Anpei is not friendly toward Hua nation and had been backstabbing us, he is not involved in this. He holds a different political view compared to Kuroda Kiyotaka, and there is some friction between the two. This project was overseen by Kuroda Kiyotaka without Anbei’s knowledge.”
“That’s unfortunate.”
Xiao Luo smirked. If Anpei was indeed part of this scheme, then he could quickly neutralize him using this project as a legitimate reason. As Anpei was not involved, Xiao Luo reluctantly decided to spare him. He looked back at Fu Yiren again and said, “You’re still weak, I’ll escort you to the port. From there, you should return to Hua nation in haste.”
“What about you?” Fu Yiren asked.
“I’ll be back after I take out every name on this list,” Xiao Luo hissed.
Fu Yiren knew how determined Xiao Luo could be. Although she did not want him to risk his life, she knew that she could not change his mind. “You must be careful,” she said.
Xiao Luo did not linger on the subject, and said, “Report everything that had happened here once you are back.”
“Why don’t you do it yourself? It is a big credit.”
“I can’t be bothered.”
“Okay, I’ll do it for you.” Fu Yiren smiled.
Then, Suzuki Ikuo came up to Xiao Luo with a smile on his face. “Xiao Han-kun, after what we went through, aren’t we now friends? Can you give me the antidote?”
Xiao Luo had totally forgotten about it and frowned. “What antidote?” he asked.
“The antidote for that poison you forced down my throat. The one will make me bleed non-stop in three days.”
Suzuki Ikuo frowned and said, “You’re not playing dirty again, are you?”
Xiao Luo smiled and decided that it was time to tell him the truth. “It’s a lie. I just made that up at that moment. You really did believe by the looks of it. I gave you a vitamin C pill, not a poison,” he said.
Nani?
Suzuki Ikuo widened his eyes when he realized he’d been tricked. A vitamin C pill?
At that moment, it felt just like he had been tricked into eating feces, and it gave him a horrible after taste.
