He was indeed coming for Xiao Hui. 0
 
I clenched my fists, positioning myself protectively in front of Fei Wan and Xiao Hui. 0
 
"What do you want?" 0
 
My voice was icy, as if it had been tempered with frost. 0
 
Wu Mingyuan adjusted his glasses, a cold smirk curling at the corners of his mouth like a snake ready to strike. 0
 
"You'll find out soon enough." 0
 
Before he finished speaking, several men in black surged out from behind him, surrounding us completely. 0
 
The weapons in their hands glinted ominously, and my heart sank. 0
 
It seemed today would not end well. 0
 
"Fei Wan, keep Xiao Hui safe." 0
 
I lowered my voice and spoke quickly. 0
 
Fei Wan held Xiao Hui tightly, worry etched across her face, but she nodded resolutely. 0
 
I took a deep breath and assumed a defensive stance. 0
 
"If you want to take Xiao Hui, you'll have to get through me first!" 0
 
I roared and charged forward. 0
 
I wasn't a martial arts expert, but the anger and determination to protect Xiao Hui fueled an incredible strength within me. 0
 
I fought with fists and feet, knocking several of the men in black to the ground. 0
 
However, I soon realized that two fists were no match for four hands, and I began to feel my strength waning. 0
 
Just then, Wu Mingyuan made his move. 0
 
 
His speed was astonishing, leaving me no time to react. 0
 
His fist slammed into my chest, making it hard for me to breathe. 0
 
I staggered backward, blood seeping from the corner of my mouth. 0
 
Wu Mingyuan let out a cold laugh and charged at me again. 0
 
I gritted my teeth, enduring the pain as I swung my fist in retaliation. 0
 
But my attack was child's play to him. 0
 
He easily dodged my strike and delivered a kick to my abdomen. 0
 
The intense pain brought me crashing to the ground, unable to rise again. 0
 
Wu Mingyuan stood over me, his gaze filled with contempt. 0
 
"You're overestimating yourself." 0
 
He waved his hand, signaling the men in black to bind me. 0
 
I struggled desperately, but it was futile. 0
 
Before long, I was tied up tightly. 0
 
Wu Mingyuan looked down at me from above, mockery evident in his eyes. 0
 
"Did you think you could stop me?" 0
 
"In this world, power is the only truth." 0
 
"And you are nothing but a weakling." 0
 
Each of his words pierced through my pride like a sharp knife. 0
 
 
I glared at him in anger, my heart filled with resentment. 0
 
But he was right; in this world where the weak are preyed upon by the strong, I was indeed a weakling at this moment. 0
 
Wu Mingyuan turned around to face Fei Wan and Xiao Hui. 0
 
"Now, it's your turn." 0
 
His smile was cruel, like that of a bloodthirsty beast. 0
 
Fei Wan clutched Xiao Hui in fear, and Xiao Hui let out a low growl, its body trembling slightly. 0
 
Wu Mingyuan approached step by step, his greed unmistakable in his eyes. 0
 
Suddenly, Xiao Hui emitted a sharp cry. 0
 
Its body erupted with dazzling light, illuminating the entire factory. 0
 
Wu Mingyuan froze, clearly taken aback by this scene. 0
 
The light grew stronger and stronger, filling me with confusion and shock. 0
 
What was happening to Xiao Hui? 0
 
After a few seconds, the brilliance abruptly vanished. 0
 
The factory was plunged back into darkness. 0
 
I struggled to open my eyes but could see nothing. 0
 
Before me was pitch black, as if I had lost my vision. 0
 
"What is happening?" 0
 
Fear and confusion surged over me like a tidal wave. 0
 
 
I wanted to stand up, but I found my body completely immobilized. 0
 
I was bound by some unseen force. 0
 
"Fei Wan! Xiao Hui!" 0
 
I shouted loudly, but there was no response. 0
 
My voice echoed in the darkness, sounding particularly powerless. 0
 
Despair engulfed me like an abyss. 0
 
Was I really going to die here? 0
 
Just then, a warm energy surged into my body. 0
 
This force brought me comfort and reassurance. 0
 
My consciousness began to blur, as if I were returning to my mother's embrace. 0
 
Before I lost awareness completely, I seemed to hear a gentle voice. 0
 
"Child, do not be afraid; we will always protect you." 0
 
The voice felt as if it came from heaven, filling me with an overwhelming sense of peace. 0
 
Then, I fell into complete darkness. 0
