After rushing into the mansion, Shen Mu found chaos inside. Even a pair of high heels were left on the ground, probably dropped during the escape. She could hear screams and shouting from inside and quickly made her way to the second floor, hiding behind a thick pillar to observe the situation downstairs.
A dark-skinned muscular man and his accomplices were shooting wildly at the walls with their submachine guns. The sound was deafening, and Shen Mu could only imagine the state of the guests on the first floor. But she couldn't just rush out and fight, she needed to find the person she was looking for.
Peering out slightly, her eyes scanning the area like X-rays, Shen Mu finally spotted Huo Yunxiao. He was standing behind a pillar, out of the enemy's line of sight, protecting a woman. Neither Ji Hengyan nor Ou Jin were by his side, and he had no weapons to defend himself, waiting for rescue.
