Autumn night, quiet and profound.
The world's one and only "Pink Romance" necklace, hailed as the most expensive jewelry on earth, is set to be auctioned at the largest black market auction in City B. It has also been pre-ordered by Beigong Yufeng, the president of Beigong Group.
However, this "Pink Romance" was stolen during the setting up of the auction event.
With the necklace stolen, the scene instantly became chaotic. Orders came down to suppress the news as bodyguards scrambled about, conducting a thorough search.
"Finally, I've got you."
In a narrow dark alley, a petite figure changed her clothes and hid the 'Pink Romance' inside her underwear, quickly making her way through the housing connection passage narrow enough for one person, and headed towards the car parked at the intersection.
She is Mo Xiyuan.
Outwards, she is a stunt double actress with a little fame in the film and television industry.
Her other identity, apart from her partner, is unknown to a third person in this world.
Mo Xiyuan carefully looked around. Not noticing anyone following her, she quickly walked towards the car and got into the driver's seat.
Just then, a man in black swiftly slid into the co-driver seat. His actions were so swift that it was hard for her to react.
"Drive!"
A cold dagger abruptly pressed against her neck.
The man's gaze was cold and stern. He lowered his voice and commanded, "Don't waste time. Let's go!"
Mo Xiyuan didn't recognize the man, but she knew he wasn't joking. As her hand touched the steering wheel, the man menacingly pressed the dagger against her neck again.
"Stop playing games, or you might end up losing your life."
"Okay!"
Even without looking, Mo Xiyen could sense the dread the man commanded.
She was lucky, the makeup she had intentionally applied to conceal her features hadn't been removed yet.
To avoid the bodyguards chasing her from the auction, Mo Xiyen quickly started the car and sped away.
The man's gaze fixated on the rear-view mirror outside the co-pilot seat. When he saw the car driving away, he spotted two people chasing from around the corner, but they didn't notice him getting in the car.
"Do me a favor, send me to Beigong Corporation. Notify Qin Mi. I will pay you afterwards."
As he spoke, he removed the dagger from Mo Xiyen's neck, finally allowing her to relax a bit.
He had been clutching his left side with his right hand. He removed his hand now, but upon pulling out his phone, he slumped onto Mo Xiyen's shoulder.
"Hey, what are you trying to do?"
Mo Xiyen flinched and swiftly elbowed the man, pushing him off.
The sudden shove propelled him roughly against the window frame.
She could feel a sticky fluid on her palm and could tell by instinct that the man was severely injured.
Blood seeped through his black suit from the wound at his waist. Mo Xiyen initially wanted to ask him if it was appropriate to move him in this state but when she turned to him, he had already fainted, losing all color in his face.
Beigong Yufeng!
Mo Xiyen finally recognized his face, her expression turned ghastly.
"Beigong Yufeng". Those four characters represented the highest authority in City B.
He was known for being ruthless and decisive. He had a reputation for always getting what he sought, and Mo Xiyen knew well that the 'Pink Love' she had, was exactly what he wanted.
She completely ignored his request to take him back, slammed on the brakes, and hastily parked the car to the side. The knuckles gripping the steering wheel turned white due to the force.
