Indeed, it was that rough swearing that had just occurred, and now he had hurried over, breathless, perhaps from walking too fast, yet his cursing was still smooth…
But did he mention the Chu Family?
Mu Yin stiffened noticeably.
The Chu Family of Yangcheng, involved in both the legitimate and underworld realms, owned hotels, bars, various underground casinos, entertainment venues, and real estate businesses spread across the country and even the world, currently the most powerful and influential entity in Yangcheng.
However, the Mu Family of the Yunmu Hospital Group generally kept to themselves, so why would he bring up her family's files?
Could it be…
Mu Yin's heart skipped a beat, and while distracted, she failed to guard against the man in front of her who could potentially take her life. Noticing her reaction, his piercing eyes suddenly narrowed and he leaned into her ear, cutting to the heart of the matter, "Are you from the Mu Family?"
"You…" Not expecting her identity to be discovered so easily by a thief of unknown origins, Mu Yin became furious and embarrassed, lifting her knee to kick him in the groin.
However, he was prepared, his long leg stepping back, easily trapping her knee between his thighs. At the same time, his body tilted, and unintentionally, his handsome face pressed against her chest, the tight softness causing him to stiffen slightly.
"A woman?" His voice suddenly became a bit heavy.
Although the environment was dark, it did not affect his vision too much. Her attire and masculine short hair had initially made him assume she was a boy, and he hadn't paid much attention.
It was only now that his senses were fully engaged, and because he was so close, the scent typical of a girl wove its way into his nostrils, especially since his finely-chiseled face was pressed against the elastic area.
Damn, she really is a woman.
Mu Yin was furious, her hands and feet restrained, unable to move. She couldn't help but quickly bite the neck exposed to the air through the mask.
"Shh…" The man grunted in pain, reached out to push her head away, and couldn't help but curse lowly, "Are you damn born of a dog?"
Although it was through the mask, this woman had become furious and nearly tore off a piece of his flesh.
Mu Yin said nothing, her cold eyes fiercely fixing on him, glowering like a provoked little beast.
The man was momentarily taken aback, seemingly catching a glimpse of something shimmering in her eyes, and he involuntarily felt the urge to let her go.
After all, he wasn't a man who enjoyed troubling women.
However, before he could release her, he heard voices from outside again, nodding obsequiously, "Big brother, we've checked everything, nothing's missing, all is good."
"Alright, take out the Mu family's separately, watch them carefully for me. It's almost dawn, to avoid any trouble…"
"Yes, our eyes will be wide open, making sure not even a fly can get in."
As they spoke, footsteps passed by the bathroom door…
The frustration building in Mu Yin's chest exploded at that moment.
This bastard, this cad…
If it hadn't been for him, she would have gotten the files already, not having them fall into the hands of the Chu Family.
Now what? With dawn approaching and all these people watching, how could she make her move?
Moreover, who didn't know that the senior Chu, having committed many misdeeds in his youth and fearing revenge from enemies, could lose his life any day, so he hired a bunch of bodyguards and guards to watch day and night, making stealing from him nearly impossible.
Summoning strength from nowhere, she fiercely broke free from his grasp, pulled out a knife from under her leg, and viciously swiped it at his neck.
