  Dark night!

  Rainy, humid alley!

  A dozen or so men in black clothes, with cold faces, holding pistols, chased after a majestic figure while moving forward!

  He wore a white suit, with gunshot wounds on his body, his bloody fingers grasping a wooden box, swiftly and agilely dashing through the damp alley, his eyes gleaming like an eagle's!

  "He ran that way, catch him!" Several voices of men in black clothes came from the end of the alley.

  He calmly heard the voice, but clenched his fist around the red box, continuing to move forward, blood dripping down from the back of his hand, he recklessly ignored it, continuing to move forward, his eyes searching in all directions.

  At this time, the back door of a certain bar in front suddenly opened, and a girl walked out, wearing a white shirt, red vest, and a waiter's uniform, shining with a pair of bright eyes, muttering countless types of red wine: Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Pinot Noir...

  His eyes lit up in the dark, and he quickly stepped forward. Before the girl could react, he swiftly grabbed her arm and pulled her into the back kitchen of the bar!

  The door slammed shut!

  His hands were as hard as steel, pinning her arms down, slamming her against the wall, and instantly covering her mouth, rendering her immobile!

  "Ah……” Tang Ke Xin was so frightened that her soul flew away, staring at the man in front of her with wide eyes. Under the dim light of the kitchen, she only saw the man's piercing gaze, like an eagle's, and her heart suddenly felt a chill. A terrible sense of impending death approached her, scaring her pale, trembling all over, and leaning against the wall, not daring to move.

  He clutched the door handle tightly, holding his breath, and tilted his head to listen to the footsteps outside getting closer and closer. His disheveled eyes suddenly swept towards the girl in front of him, although he couldn't see her face clearly, but he felt her pair of clear and moving big eyes, flashing with a frightened light!

  He gritted his teeth, bearing the pain of three gunshot wounds, and whispered to her in a low voice: "Don't make a sound! I won't hurt you! I heard you mention the name of the red wine earlier, I know you're a connoisseur of fine wines! Time is running out, and I may not survive! I have something very valuable on me, please take it to Mr. Jiang, the old president of the Asia Hotel, remember! Don't let anyone else touch it! Not even your loved ones! He will definitely reward you! I swear this is my last bet in life! Please! This token concerns the fate of two families! It's extremely important! Please!"

  Tang Ke Xin's eyes flashed with confusion as she stared at the man in the darkness.

  As soon as he finished speaking, he quickly stuffed the wooden box into Tang Ke Xin's arms and gazed deeply at the girl in the darkness. His eyes flashed with a fierce and hesitant light, but suddenly he lowered his head and heavily kissed the girl's lips!

  "Ah!!" Tang Ke Xin was shocked to the core, and at the same time, he was bitten by him fiercely, which made him feel even more heart-wrenching pain.

  He held her face tightly, gently licking the blood from her lips, and said in a hoarse and urgent tone: "I've tasted your blood, my life is yours, if the Jiang family betrays us, I'll haunt them as a ghost!"

  The footsteps outside the door were getting closer and closer...

  "I'll go out and lure them away now!! No matter what sounds you hear outside, don't come out or call the police!" He finished speaking, clutched his left abdomen wound tightly, endured the pain, opened the door and walked out!

  "Hey……” Tang Ke Xin was still in a daze, only hugging the small wooden box and hiding behind the door crack, staring at his back, trembling with fear and anxiety, and shouting: "I don't know you, why should I help you? I don't know these people you're talking about!! What am I supposed to do?"

  A terrifying growl echoed through the dark alley!

  Tang Ke Xin's entire body shook violently, her eyes wide with incredulity as she stared at the man who had been shot and was lying in a pool of blood, surrounded by several men. They even glanced towards the back door of the bar and said: "I saw him walk in through the back door earlier! It's possible he handed it over to an accomplice!"

  Tang Ke Xin was so frightened that she covered her mouth, and with a shattered nerve, she heavily locked the door again. She quickly rushed out of the kitchen, passing by many people who were chatting and laughing at the bar, just as she was about to make a run for it outside, but suddenly stopped in her tracks, her eyes wide open, seeing several men wearing black clothes rushing into the bar entrance, standing in the center of the dance floor, coldly and frighteningly searching around...

  Tang Ke Xin's heart chilled, she tightly hugged the wooden box and quickly turned around, rushing into the attendant's dressing room!

  Several men saw Tang Ke Xin's back tense and flustered, with a suspicious wooden box in her arms, and immediately wanted to chase after her. However, just as they took a few steps, they heard someone say: "Mr. Jiang is here! Don't make any trouble! Look at his face, he seems to be in a bad mood!"

  The man in front heard this and his face changed color...
