As Lu Chengzhou spoke, he moved forward to lift the black cloth but was blocked by the bodyguards. The bodyguards kept Lu Chengzhou in front, gesturing for the others to hurry away with the box.
Lu Chengzhou sneered and suddenly lunged, engaging the two bodyguards.
“You can’t stop me from seeing it! Hurt me and my cousin will come for you!” Lu Chengzhou warned.
True to Lu Chengzhou’s words, the bodyguards held back, not daring to seriously fight him. Everyone knew how merciless Ye Nanshen was toward those in the Ye residence, and no one dared to provoke him.
Lu Chengzhou laughed coldly and leaped over the men. The bodyguards saw that, put down the box, and confronted Lu Chengzhou.
Amid the scuffle, Lu Chengzhou pulled a bottle from his pocket, uncorked it, and a small scorpion leaped out, scurrying quickly. It targeted one man’s leg, raised its stinger, and plunged it in.
A scream erupted, but n.o.body saw what caused it. The affected bodyguard clutched his leg, immediately unable to stand, with his pants torn and the site of the sting swollen and in intense pain.
“What is that thing?” they panicked.
Before they could see clearly, Orangie, the scorpion, jumped from one man’s back to another’s neck, its tail raised high, and accurately struck.
Another scream of agony. The unknown was the most terrifying. The bodyguards fought Lu Chengzhou while watching out for the scorpion.
Lu Chengzhou, however, was focused on the box. Caught off guard, a bodyguard threw a punch at his face.
As the fist approached, a small figure suddenly appeared on it.
Lu Chengzhou’s eyes widened and said, “Orangie, don’t hold back, knock them down! Daddy will treat you to a feast tonight!”
The once motionless Orangie suddenly became excited, its tail, gleaming coldly, stabbing the fist.
“A scorpion! Ah, I’ve been stung!”
The bodyguard writhed in pain, while the others hesitated to approach. But Orangie, emboldened, joyously jumped onto another man’s face, proudly raising its tail.
The group tried to catch it but failed. The small scorpion was extremely agile, jumping among them, or even crawling into their collars.
Now truly scared, they hurriedly stripped to find the scorpion.
Distracted by Orangie, Lu Chengzhou seized the opportunity and lifted the black curtain. His pupils dilated in shock.
‘How is this a box? It’s a cage!’ Lu Chengzhou thought.
Inside lay a drenched, barely breathing woman.
Lu Chengzhou’s face changed dramatically. He pulled out a dagger to pry open the lock, kneeled down, and reached for the woman.
As he pulled, the woman turned around, her face covered in messy hair and ludicrous makeup, looking utterly disheveled.
But Lu Chengzhou recognized her instantly.
“S-Sachima?” he stammered, hesitating to touch her..
