Chapter 651: Revenge, has come!

Lin Yuan strained to twist his neck, looking behind him…

Only Le Wei'er……had already sat up at some point, her hand gripping an iron rod tightly.

One end of the iron rod……was stained with bright red blood.

That bloodstain was fresh and glaring, exactly flowing from the back of Lin Yuan's head.

The fresh blood dripped slowly along the iron rod, splashing onto the cold concrete floor, spreading into specks of red.

Le Wei'er's face……had long lost its former gentleness and reliance.

At this moment, the tenderness in the depths of her beautiful eyes……had completely faded.

At this moment, Le Wei'er, in place of that, is cold ruthlessness and mockery.

Le Wei'er's mouth curled into a cold arc.

At this moment, she, compared to the proactive self‑offering, fawning figure of last night……are like two different people.

It seemed that all her previous submission and obedience were merely her carefully fabricated deceit.

Seeing this scene, the last sliver of luck and softness in Lin Yuan's heart was instantly replaced by icy chill.

But the intense pain at the back of his head continued to rage wildly.

Lin Yuan only felt his mind in a haze, his consciousness gradually becoming muddled.

His whole body twitched uncontrollably a few times, feeling his head sink, unable to support himself any longer.

Lin Yuan's vision went black, and he collapsed straight onto the cold concrete floor.

He was struck in a vital spot, blood pouring from the back of his head, instantly losing all ability to move.

Lin Yuan at this moment could not move his body.

He could only lie on the ground, eyes open but unfocused, his vision scattering.

At this moment, Lin Yuan didn't even have the strength to lift his hand.

He never imagined he would fall into this woman's hands, nor that he would believe her disguise.

Le Wei'er slowly rose to her feet; although her whole body still felt somewhat sore, it did not affect her movements in the slightest.

Le Wei'er gripped the blood‑stained iron rod and walked step by step to Lin Yuan's front.

She looked down at him from above.

Le Wei'er's eyes……flashed with a hint of cold killing intent.

The mockery at the corner of her lips grew ever more intense.

Le Wei'er slowly raised the iron rod in her hand, aiming it at Lin Yuan's head.

She slowly lifted the iron rod.

As long as she struck down with force again, she could completely end Lin Yuan's life.

To completely rid herself of the man who imprisoned and humiliated her, to avenge past shame.

Lin Yuan's right hand slowly grasped a silver needle……

This was his last bit of strength.

If Le Wei'er dared to act, he would without hesitation kill that woman.

Both sides were gathering their final strength.

But just as Le Wei'er's iron rod was about to fall.

Her movement suddenly halted.

Le Wei'er bit her teeth, hesitating for a long while.

Finally, the killing intent in her eyes gradually faded……

In its place came a hint of complexity and struggle.

Le Wei'er lowered her head to look at Lin Yuan, covered in blood and consciousness blurred, lying on the ground.

She again recalled……last night's decadence.

She recalled……on the ground, that striking splash of fallen red,

Le Wei'er clenched her teeth against her lower lip, and deep inside, unexpectedly……a strange throbbing and reluctance arose,

This man, even though he imprisoned and humiliated her……

but ultimately, he was the man who took her first time.

He was the first person in her life to whom she gave her body and heart.

After a moment's struggle, Le Wei'er ultimately still softened her heart.

Le Wei'er slowly lowered the iron rod in her hand.

The complexity in her eyes……gradually gave way to cold resolve.

She bent over, looking down at Lin Yuan from above.

Le Wei'er's tone was full of mockery and resentment, she coldly laughed, word by word:

"Dog man, consider yourself lucky. Looking at the fact that I gave you my first time, between us we can also call it a karmic tie; today I will spare your life."

Having said that, she no longer glanced at Lin Yuan.

She turned and walked toward the corner of the wine cellar……

She yanked off the iron chain bound around her ankle.

Earlier, Lin Yuan had been soft‑hearted and had not put handcuffs on her.

Thus the chain's latch was not locked either; she easily broke free of her bonds.

Afterward, she staggered toward the stairwell entrance……

Le Wei'er ignored the soreness all over her body and the intense pain of the wound on her neck, summoning all her strength to climb the stairs……

She shoved open the iron door of the basement.

She finally saw the light again.

Facing the dawn's faint light, Le Wei'er fled without looking back from the wine cellar that had imprisoned her for days and borne all her humiliation and struggle……

Only Lin Yuan remained, lying on the cold concrete floor covered in blood, his consciousness gradually sinking into darkness.

But she had just run not far from the wine cellar……

She stepped onto the desolate mountain trail.

Le Wei'er's steps suddenly halted.

She staggered to a stop, bracing her hands on her knees, gasping heavily.

Le Wei'er's body remained weak and sore, the wound on her neck throbbing faintly from being pulled……%

But in her mind, an uncontrollable image surfaced of Lin Yuan covered in blood, lying on the ground……

It surfaced the glaring specks of fallen red on the ground, and the fragments of last night's sinking.

Le Wei'er's heart was replaced by a strand of inexplicable agitation and entanglement.

She clenched her teeth against her lower lip, a flicker of struggle flashing in her eyes.

Le Wei'er muttered a curse under her breath, talking to herself: "Le Wei'er, are you crazy? He imprisoned you, humiliated you, you barely escaped—why are you still thinking of him?"

But though she said so, Le Wei'er's steps……uncontrollably turned direction.

She, once again, step by step, turned back toward the wine cellar……

She ultimately still couldn't get past her own barrier.

She ultimately couldn't bear to watch the man who took her first time just lie there, covered in blood, in the cold wine cellar……

Le Wei'er hurried back to the wine cellar and shoved open the iron door that hadn't fully closed.

She rushed straight to the unconscious Lin Yuan lying on the ground.

Le Wei'er crouched down.

At this moment, Lin Yuan still had his eyes tightly shut, his face as pale as paper……

The wound on the back of his head kept bleeding, staining the concrete beneath him red.

Just now, Le Wei'er's sneak attack was too heavy; Lin Yuan was injured and lost consciousness.

Le Wei'er tore a clean strip of cloth from her tattered clothes.

She then searched around and found the simple gauze and povidone-iodine that Lin Yuan had left earlier in the wine cellar.

That was what he had previously used to treat Le Wei'er's neck wound, but now it became the tool for bandaging Lin Yuan's wound.

Le Wei'er endured her body's weakness and the complexity in her heart……

She carefully picked up the povidone-iodine and gently applied it to the wound on the back of Lin Yuan's head.

Her movements were gentle, yet somewhat complex.

She feared that a single misstep would make her completely soft-hearted, abandoning the thought of escape.

After applying the povidone-iodine, she picked up the gauze……

Le Wei'er wrapped the gauze around and around, carefully bandaging the back of Lin Yuan's head.

She tightened it as much as she could to stop the blood from continuing to seep out.

Her fingertips……touched Lin Yuan's warm skin and sticky blood traces。，

A strange throb rose in Le Wei'er's heart.

The struggle in her eyes gradually faded, leaving only a strand of icy calm.

After bandaging, she slowly released her grip.

Looking at Lin Yuan still unconscious……

Le Wei'er slowly rose to her feet, looking down at him.

She muttered, "Scoundrel, from now on we owe each other nothing. You took my first time; I saved your life. Henceforth, between us there will be no further entanglement. For the rest of our lives, whether you live or die is up to fate."

After saying that, she had no hesitation left.

Le Wei'er turned and ran toward the stairwell……

This time, she didn't pause at all, nor did she look back.

She staggered away from the wine cellar……

……

Half an hour later, a taxi stopped at the foot of Le Tian Jin Rong Da Sha.

Le Wei'er staggered to open the car door, almost leaning on the wall, step by step entering the lobby.

The front desk staff, seeing her state, were instantly shocked and rushed forward to support her.

But she weakly waved them away.

Le Wei'er said weakly, "Give the taxi driver some money……he's the one who brought me back."

The front desk staff nodded, hurried out, and transferred 50,000 yuan to the taxi driver.

Le Wei'er headed straight for the elevator……

Soon she took the elevator to the top floor.

Le Wei'er pushed open the Chairman's Office door……

At this moment, her father Le Xiao chen sat behind the desk, looking exhausted.

Le Xiao chen's eyes were bloodshot; days of fruitless searching and anxiety had already drained his vigor.

But at this moment, the office door was suddenly pushed open.

When Le Xiao chen lifted his gaze and made out the disheveled figure at the doorway……

Le Xiao chen could faintly recognize……that it was his daughter's silhouette……

Le Xiao chen's whole body stiffened instantly.

Le Xiao chen immediately sprang to his feet and rushed over……

Le Xiao chen's voice trembled, filled with incredulous excitement: "Wei'er?! You…… you're still alive?!"

Le Xiao chen swept Le Wei'er into a tight embrace.

All the worry, anxiety, and fear of the past days turned to tears the moment he saw his daughter return safely.

Le Xiao chen's voice choked: "It's wonderful, truly wonderful…… Dad thought he'd never see you again!"

Le Wei'er's all her strength and pretense collapsed instantly.

Grievance, humiliation, and fear surged together; she clung to her father and burst into tears.

Le Xiao chen gently patted her back, soothing her emotions.

Le Xiao chen's gaze fell on the palm print on her face, the wound on her neck, and her tattered clothing.

The excitement in Le Xiao chen's eyes was instantly replaced by a raging fury.

Le Xiao chen's tone was icy to the bone, asking word by word: "Wei'er, tell Dad, was it that scum Lin Yuan who bullied you?!"

At the mention of Lin Yuan, Le Wei'er's body shuddered violently.

A flash of hatred and humiliation crossed her eyes; she nodded firmly.

Le Wei'er choked out…… recounting how Lin Yuan had imprisoned and beaten her, each word dripping with blood……

However, Le Wei'er deliberately concealed the fact that she had relations with Lin Yuan and lost her virginity to him.

That was her deepest shame and secret……

Even facing her own father, she could not speak of it, only burying this unbearable truth deep in her heart.

After hearing his daughter's lament, Le Xiao chen trembled with rage throughout his body.

Le Xiao chen clenched his fists tightly, his eyes blazing with murderous intent and fury.

Le Xiao chen roared angrily: "Lin Yuan! I will surely tear you to shreds to avenge my daughter!"

He had always treasured Le Wei'er like a jewel in his palm, fearing to drop or melt her, never letting her suffer the slightest grievance……

Now, his daughter had actually been tormented and humiliated by Lin Yuan like this.

How could Le Xiao chen not be furious?

Le Xiao chen abruptly released Le Wei'er, strode to his desk, and picked up his phone.

Le Xiao chen dialed a number:

"Notify everyone, immediately mobilize all of Le Tian Financial's societal forces and any available personnel, spare no expense, search the entire city for Lin Yuan's whereabouts! Once found, no need to report—just dispose of him! I want him to pay the heaviest price!"

The person on the other end dared not hesitate, promptly responding respectfully!

After hanging up, the order from Le Tian Financial to mobilize its forces instantly spread to every corner of Hangcheng!

Countless society members and thugs gathered, then scattered in all directions!

A citywide manhunt targeting Lin Yuan quietly began.

……

Meanwhile, in the suburban wine cellar……

Lin Yuan, who had been unconscious for several hours, finally came to slowly.

He slowly opened his eyes, his gaze full of confusion and swelling pain.

Lin Yuan's occiput…… the wound still sent waves of dull pain.

He raised his hand and gently rubbed his throbbing head; memories gradually returned.

The scenes of Le Wei'er's disguise, ambush, and her returning to bandage the wound, uttering harsh words before fleeing, flashed…

One after another played in Lin Yuan's mind, his eyes flashing a hint of cold ruthlessness and unwillingness.

Lin Yuan rose to his feet, his body still somewhat weak.

The gauze on his occiput had already been soaked through by seeping blood.

He leaned against the wall and slowly walked to the wine cellar door……

Lin Yuan's car was still there, fortunately.

Lin Yuan drove straight to his single apartment……

Along the way, Lin Yuan felt some worry.

Le Wei'er had escaped; Le Xiao chen would certainly not let it rest.

Lin Yuan must quickly prepare to face the coming turmoil.

……

After more than half an hour, Lin Yuan reached the entrance of his single apartment building.

It was already night.

Lin Yuan got out of the car, rubbed his still-swollen head, and stepped into the apartment building……

He had returned to his residence.

After entering, he first fetched clean gauze and iodine, carefully removed the original gauze from his occiput, and rewrapped the wound……

Lin Yuan treated his wound while pondering his next move.

He knew that once Le Xiao chen learned of Le Wei'er's ordeal, he would surely retaliate wildly.

He must quickly devise a countermeasure to remain invincible.

But just then, outside the downstairs window……

Suddenly, a piercing car roar shattered the tranquility around the apartment building!

Lin Yuan was dressing his wound; hearing the commotion downstairs, his expression shifted slightly!

A flicker of vigilance crossed Lin Yuan's eyes; he rose, walked to the window, and slightly drew back the curtain.

He looked down toward the lower floor——

Only to see that the ground floor of the apartment building had already been completely surrounded by a dense convoy, not even water could leak through.

Dozens of black sedans were neatly lined up, their headlights switched on, bathing the entire ground floor of the apartment building in light as bright as daylight.

Immediately afterward, the car doors swung open one after another...

Hundreds of thugs dressed in black and wielding clubs poured out of the vehicles!

Hundreds of thugs stood in neat, orderly rows at the apartment building's ground floor, their aura menacing, their expressions fierce.

A sea of countless people surrounded the entire apartment building so tightly that not even a fly could escape.

At the very front of the convoy, Le Xiao chen wore a black suit, his expression sinister, his eyes icy cold like a blade.

Le Xiao chen, lifting his gaze, stared fixedly at the floor where Lin Yuan was.
