318 Unable to Retaliate

“Wait, don’t eat yet. Someone has drugged the food.” Shan Yue’s voice was very soft, and only the people at the table could hear her.

Zhou Xuan’s heart tightened. He Sheng and a group of bodyguards beside him did not realize that the food was drugged. How could a girl like Shan Yue discover this in an instant? Who exactly was she? How many more things was she hiding from him?

However, Zhou Xuan only buried the question in his heart for the time being and did not ask it immediately. This was because he knew that now was not the time for him to ask questions.

After hearing Shan Yue’s words, the meat in Zhang Luo’s chopsticks was thrown back into the bowl. His eyes could not help but widen as he asked with a puzzled expression, “What is Pang Shuo trying to do? How dare he attack us? Does he want to die?”

“It seems that it’s already too late.” Zhou Xuan’s long and narrow eyes darkened, but they still did not lose their coldness. “He must have already sensed that we’re leaving tonight. He guessed that we must have already found something that’s disadvantageous to him, so he wants to keep us here forever. After all, only the dead can reassure him.”

Zhang Luo was a little shocked when he heard this. He had lived for so many years. Although he had experienced many setbacks, he had still lived under good protection most of the time. This was the first time he was facing a life-and-death crisis.

He frowned and pursed his lips. “Then what should we do now? Since he has already drugged us, he must be monitoring us somewhere. Including President Zhou’s assistant and bodyguards, we only have a total of twelve people. His militia has at least a hundred people. Our chances of winning are very low.”

“We can’t just sit here and wait for death. There’s only one way to survive now, and that’s to take the initiative and catch them off guard while they think we don’t know yet.”

Shan Yue casually placed her hand on the table and held her chin with one hand. “I just came back not long ago. Even if Pang Shuo has already sensed something, there isn’t much time for him to prepare. If he wanted to trap us, he would have rushed in with his men long ago. He wouldn’t have placed laxatives in the food to stall for time to keep us here. This can only mean that the people he prepared aren’t fully confident that they can keep us here, and the people he called haven’t arrived yet.”

“President Shan is right. Once we let him hold on until everyone arrives, we won’t be able to leave even if we want to. He Sheng, inform everyone to be prepared. We don’t have to take anything with us. Right now, survival is the most important.”

The coldness in Zhou Xuan’s eyes became even more obvious. “Once we run out of this door, I’ll immediately find a spot where their defense is the weakest. Everyone, break out of that spot and run as fast as you can. As long as we can reach the car, we can rush out.”

“I understand, President Zhou,” He Sheng immediately replied.

Shan Yue looked around the table with fighting spirit and at everyone. “We should leave before they notice. We shouldn’t wait for Pang Shuo to come in and find out that the laxative isn’t working. There’s no time to lose. We’ll take action immediately. Everyone should be ready, right?”

The people at the table said in unison, “Yes, President Shan.”

“On my mark, three, two, one, move!”

As soon as Shan Yue finished speaking, the twelve people in the room rushed out of the door at the same time. The leader, He Sheng, kicked the door open. Shan Yue, Zhou Xuan, and Zhang Luo were surrounded and protected by bodyguards.

The sudden change shocked Pang Shuo and the guards outside the house. No one had expected this to happen. However, Pang Shuo did not choose to come out immediately to expose himself. Instead, the villagers in the courtyard came up with clubs and prepared to stop them.

He Sheng had two bodyguards behind him. Their movements were very coherent. Their sharp eyes were filled with killing intent. Without saying a word, they punched the person in the face and kicked him away to prevent him from blocking the way.
