Chapter 1032: She Must Go

The car suddenly fell into silence.

An operation with an unknown outcome always faces boundless danger.

Cai Xiaotang suddenly thought of something and asked worriedly, "Brother, you met with Luo Wanwan before, right? Will they... be recognized by Luo Wanwan?"

"No."

Mu Liusu shook his head: "When you were kidnapped before, Xiao An and Abai were outside executing a different mission, so there is no problem with them showing their faces."

"That's good..."

Cai Xiaotang replied in a low voice, but she still couldn't help but break into a cold sweat for the two of them.

She had already witnessed death with her own eyes more than once, and she really didn't want to see it again...

"Xiao An, you..."

Mu Liusu began to methodically deploy the upcoming plan, interrupting Cai Xiaotang's train of thought.

She listened quietly, only then realizing that every time Li Xiao went out, he had to talk with everyone in the study for a long time; it turned out it was to prepare so many things.

I wonder how Li Xiao is doing right now?

Has Luo Wanwan been abusing him?

Just as Cai Xiaotang was thinking this, her phone suddenly rang!

She was a bit surprised and hurriedly picked it up to take a look, but she suddenly froze in place.

"What's wrong? Whose message is it?"

Mu Liusu noticed her abnormality immediately and asked in a low voice.

A flash of panic quickly crossed the bottom of Cai Xiaotang's eyes, and hearing this, she hurriedly shook her head: "Nothing..."

Before she could finish her sentence, the phone had already been snatched away by Mu Liusu!

"Brother!"

Cai Xiaotang immediately reached out, wanting to snatch it back, but it was already too late.

Almost the moment Mu Liusu saw the message on the screen, his entire person radiated a thick chill and murderous intent.

There was only a short line of small text on the screen.

【Want to see Li Xiao? Come find me yourself. I'll give you one hour, otherwise, just wait to collect his corpse.】

The message ended abruptly at the ellipsis at the end, and the sender was also a string of unfamiliar numbers.

But there was no need to guess; she knew the person behind this was Luo Wanwan.

"You want to go alone?"

Mu Liusu gripped the phone tightly and looked at Cai Xiaotang with cold eyes.

Having never seen him with such an expression before, Cai Xiaotang couldn't help but tremble instantly.

She didn't deny that the moment she saw the message, she indeed had that thought...

But... but she also knew clearly that relying on herself alone, it was impossible to rescue Li Xiao.

The next second—"I will arrange everything immediately; you don't need to go."

Mu Liusu confiscated Cai Xiaotang's phone directly and made the decision for her.

"Brother! I must go!"

Cai Xiaotang widened her eyes instantly: "The message said, if I don't go, Luo Wanwan will..."

"She is just threatening you!"

Mu Liusu interrupted Cai Xiaotang sternly.

"But what if!"

Cai Xiaotang argued based on reason: "What if that lunatic Luo Wanwan really did something to Li Xiao! I can't gamble with him! If she wants to use me as an exchange, then I can..."

"Exchange? And then what? Let Li Xiao watch you lose your life for her?"

Mu Liusu's tone was uncharacteristically tinged with anger.

"She only sent you this kind of message because she knows this can manipulate you."

"But I can't risk Li Xiao's life!"

Cai Xiaotang emphasized again, her eyes full of determination.

"Brother, I know you are afraid of me getting hurt, but just like when I was kidnapped by that Linke last time and you were all willing to come and exchange for me, my feelings now are the same. Li Xiao is the person I like; usually, if he gets a small injury, my heart aches. If something really happens to him, I will blame myself for the rest of my life!"

"Then you would let me watch you take risks?"

Mu Liusu clenched his fists tightly.

"Taking risks doesn't equal throwing one's life away, does it?"

Cai Xiaotang was exceptionally clear-headed, without the slightest fear.

"I can go in with your people. If they go in and are discovered, or if other unexpected situations occur, it is very likely that not only will Li Xiao not be rescued, but instead..."

She paused for a moment and did not continue speaking.

After calming down for two seconds, she continued: "I have spent time with Luo Wanwan and know what she thinks of me, so as long as I go, I will definitely be able to steady her. At the very least, I can buy time. Your plan can completely include me..."

Mu Liusu refused again: "You don't need to say anymore, it is impossible for me to..."

"..."

"Brother!!!"

This time, Cai Xiaotang was somewhat anxious and knelt halfway in front of him, her eyes full of determination.

"Fine, I can not go, but can you guarantee that your plan will not have any problems at all! If something really happens to Li Xiao, then I..."

Cai Xiaotang took a deep breath, her eye sockets suddenly turning red.

Yet she still said word by word: "Then I will... die with him."

"

Her attitude was so resolute that Mu Liusu's heart gave a violent jolt.

He subconsciously looked straight into Cai Xiaotang's eyes, and seeing the light and determination in their depths, his originally firm resolve suddenly wavered for an instant.

Since they were small, he had known that this so-called younger sister of his did not have an easy life at home.

Even though his mother often spoke ill of her and her mother in his ears.

But the faults of adults are not the fault of the children, who are always innocent.

Therefore, he always intentionally cared for her a little more.

This care had lasted for more than twenty years.

But now, she also had someone she was willing to risk her life to protect.

After a long while—"Are you truly prepared? Once you go in, no one can protect you; you must act according to the situation."

"I am prepared."

Cai Xiaotang answered without the slightest hesitation.

After speaking, she added: "At the very least, I can be certain that Luo Wanwan will let me see Li Xiao; as long as I see him, there might still be room for a turnaround."

"Why?"

Mu Liusu was puzzled.

Cai Xiaotang's gaze flickered for an instant, and she said softly: "Just consider it...

my understanding of a love rival."

Given Luo Wanwan's personality, as long as she went in, the other woman would definitely not let her off.

However...

she also wouldn't kill her the moment they met.

She hated her so much.

Even if she wanted to humiliate or torture her, she would certainly do it in front of Li Xiao.

Otherwise, why would she have called her to go?

As for exactly what to do, it would still depend on Brother's two subordinates.

Her appearance was only to ensure that Luo Wanwan's emotions would not cause her to do something crazy to Li Xiao...

Cai Xiaotang took a deep breath and hurriedly said in a low voice: "Alright, let's hurry up and start discussing; we don't have much time left."

Her expression was serious, no longer possessing her previous liveliness, as if she had changed into a different person in an instant.

Mu Liusu paused slightly, but in the end, he did not say anything more and quickly began to re-tailor the plan.

He had to ensure Cai Xiaotang's safety to the greatest extent possible and keep Luo Wanwan under control.

Fifteen minutes later—a group of people stepped down from the car.

The researcher was still being pressed to the ground, kneeling and unable to rise.

Immediately after, the mobile phone that had been confiscated from him was tossed with a *clack* right before his eyes.

Mu Liusu's low, commanding voice followed.

"You, make a call to the person who contacted you."
