"Get me a car..."

However, Ruan Beauty clearly had no such idle thoughts, and at this moment seemed to have returned to her former cold and glamorous demeanor as a proud beauty, immediately instructing the officer.

"Yes..."

The officer naturally did not dare to have the slightest defiance, and went off to prepare without delay.

Ruan Beauty is the daughter of Ruan Wenzhong, a princess-like existence, definitely an extremely prominent figure both in terms of background and status, and moreover, Ruan Beauty is such a dazzlingly beautiful lady, becoming the dream girl of many young men...

Coincidentally, this young officer was one of them, previously only able to fantasize in dreams, but this time was the first to speak with his dream goddess up close.

Even though the goddess, the princess only spoke to him to prepare a car... it was enough to keep him happy for several days.

Ruan Beauty's background is well known here in Northern Anlang, easily recognizable by many, making her orders readily obeyed.

The officer wasted no time, arranging a car for Ruan Beauty and Qin Fang, though just an ordinary jeep, it was quite suitable.

Anlang's conditions weren't great, and the roads weren't very good either. Most regular cars were found in economically developed cities, but places like Luo City were less bustling, making it difficult for regular cars to navigate, whereas jeeps were very suitable for use here...

Moreover, the car bore the Anlang Military license plate, leaving little chance for anyone to stop them, essentially allowing them to go anywhere without issue...

With the car, the journey became much easier.

Ruan Beauty took the driver's seat, driving Qin Fang directly towards the Ruan Family Mansion in Luo City.

Initially, Qin Fang, tasked with carrying boxes, was supposed to disappear automatically after safely delivering Ruan Beauty to Luo City as he had completed his mission.

However, Qin Fang was a mute, unable to speak, so naturally unable to express this, and Ruan Beauty seemed to have her own reasons, so neither mentioned the matter, leading the two to continue together towards the Ruan Family Mansion...

As the century's ruler of Luo City, the Ruan Family wielded the greatest authority here, possessing the largest mansion located in the center of the city, vast in area and luxuriously decorated, with strict protection, armed soldiers everywhere, exuding an air of menace.

Said to be a mansion, it was akin to a city lord's estate, a forbidden palace, where the Ruan Family lived and handled various official matters...

Others lacked the privilege to enter the Ruan Family Mansion unless specially requested by the Ruan Family; if one attempted to force entry, the guards would likely shoot them to pieces.

But Ruan Beauty was different, being a member of the Ruan Family, could freely enter and exit, and Qin Fang, by association, was also able to smoothly enter the Ruan Family Mansion, even directly heading towards Ruan Wenzhong's office, which was dubbed the city of the "King of Northern Anlang."

Ruan Beauty walked ahead, with Qin Fang following, carrying the box.

There was an officer who seemed to have just finished his business, coincidentally walking out from Ruan Wenzhong's office and seeing Ruan Beauty, wanting to curry favor by taking over Qin Fang's heavy task.

However, when Qin Fang tossed the box lightly, playfully, the unfortunate officer almost broke his back under its weight...

If Qin Fang had not held it in time, the box would have been heavily dropped to the ground; despite that, the unfortunate officer's hands suffered some bone injuries... gaining nothing but losing face in front of Ruan Beauty...

It was just a minor episode, which neither Qin Fang nor Ruan Beauty cared much about, soon forgetting about it.

Unexpectedly, the slighted officer harbored a grudge, contemplating how to teach Qin Fang a hard lesson...

Yet Qin Fang paid no mind to the officer, thinking he could crush many people like him with just a slap...

Meanwhile, Ruan Beauty had led him into Ruan Wenzhong's office.

Ruan Wenzhong was a middle-aged man in his fifties, not looking very heroic, resembling a dry, thin old man, with a receding hairline.

Yet his eyes occasionally flashed with brilliance, indicating he was not as simple as he appeared...

Often the case, if Ruan Wenzhong wasn't capable, he couldn't have reached his current position, commanding Northern Anlang, even the capital being helpless against him.

"Yingxiu, what happened exactly?"

Seeing his daughter's return, Ruan Wenzhong smiled slightly, appearing pleased, but when mentioning the recent incident, his face betrayed dissatisfaction and doubt.

"The Hand of the Demon's people failed to eliminate Dragon Country's special agents, eventually being pinpointed, leading to Dragon Country fighter jets bombing... If it weren't for my luck, I might have... never returned!"

Ruan Beauty didn't conceal anything, having been directly involved and knowledgeable about the internal details, she already guessed what had happened and promptly reported truthfully!

"Unreasonable... Dragon Country People are truly excessive!"

Ruan Wenzhong burst into rage, slamming his palm heavily on the table, roaring angrily, seeming genuinely furious.

"But Dragon Country's power is overwhelming; the Ruan Family cannot oppose it. Let's leave it at that."

Yet a moment later, Ruan Wenzhong's tone changed again, appearing quite helpless, refraining from further pursuit.

"By the way, I heard you received something from the Hand of the Demon?"

Not just that, Ruan Wenzhong's skill in changing demeanor was remarkable, again shifting, seemingly very interested in asking.

Throughout the process, Qin Fang coldly observed, his eyes filled with disdain, clearly perceiving Ruan Wenzhong barely cared for his daughter's safety, truly concerned only about the box Ruan Beauty brought back...

"Indeed, Father, I risked my life to obtain this from the Hand of the Demon... There were originally several, but unfortunately they were destroyed in the explosion..."

Ruan Beauty didn't deny it; instead, as if seeking credit, she proclaimed.

"Good, good, good... One is better than none at all!"

Ruan Wenzhong's small eyes squinted into slits, directly approaching Qin Fang, carefully examining the large box in Qin Fang's hands.

"Who is he?"

Yet Qin Fang's presence was quite substantial; even with the large object drawing most of Ruan Wenzhong's attention, he couldn't escape Ruan Wenzhong's notice.

Seeing Qin Fang's unfamiliar face, Ruan Wenzhong's heart tightened, stepping back a few paces, shouting with utmost vigilance.

"Father, he's my newly recruited personal guard..."

Ruan Beauty paused, then glanced at Qin Fang, slowly explaining.

"I see..."

Ruan Wenzhong seemed not entirely satisfied with his daughter's answer, but said nothing further, simply responding briefly. (To be continued. If you like this work, please visit Qidian (qidian.com) to vote for recommendation tickets and monthly tickets. Your support is my greatest motivation.)
