chapter 2 Exterminate the enemy's country

"Father wants me to marry April Qiao?" Baldwin Qi looked at the letter in his hand, the corner of his mouth twitched involuntarily. April Qiao had been his playmate when they were kids. When she was young, April Qiao was already beautiful. Now, she must have grown even more elegant. His father's words were very stern, making Baldwin Qi sigh. He had no choice but to comply. The next morning, the prisoners almost celebrated Baldwin Qi's departure from the Underworld Prison with drums and gongs. Once this devil left, they could run wild again! "I could return at any time. You had all better keep records. Whoever causes trouble during this time, note every single incident for me," Baldwin Qi said with a beaming smile. The prisoners, who were making noise, instantly fell silent and started trembling in fear. Baldwin Qi's gaze swept over a few "ringleaders", and he chuckled, then took his luggage and left the Underworld Prison, where he had lived for over a decade, to board a plane to Zhonghai City. "Why do I keep bumping into her wherever I go?!" As he entered the first-class cabin, Baldwin Qi was taken aback and frowned. There were eight seats in first class. One of them was occupied by Cheyenn Yu, whom he had just met. At the moment, Cheyenn Yu, dressed in casual black attire, looked as domineering as ever, even without her military uniform. Upon seeing Baldwin Qi, Cheyenn Yu was clearly taken aback, she shook her head slightly but said nothing. "Didn't Miss Yu already tell you? You two are from different worlds. Why are you following her onto the plane? Is there any meaning in you doing this?" Tara Long, Cheyenn Yu's assistant, said coldly, her face turning icy. Upon hearing this, Baldwin Qi paused, his mouth curling in disdain. He pulled out a magazine without even giving the two of them a glance. Cheyenn Yu's brows darkened. She disliked men who wouldn't take no for an answer. When they met at the entrance of the Underworld Prison, Baldwin Qi was silent. Now he silently followed her onto the plane. It made her look down on him. For men, it's crucial to know when to hold on and when to let go. Suddenly, three men burst in. They raised their hands, aiming three handguns directly at Cheyenn Yu. "General Yu, by arresting our boss, you have caused us a lot of trouble!" The man in the lead cocked his gun, grinning maliciously. The passengers in the first-class cabin were stunned. How did these three manage to bring guns onto the plane?! Baldwin Qi glanced over, then nonchalantly picked up his magazine again, acting as if he had gone blind. Tara Long paled, rooted to the spot. She hadn't expected Blackbeard's men to track them down on the plane. She couldn't help but glance at Baldwin Qi. He sat outside the three men's line of sight. If he took action, he could create an opportunity for her. But Baldwin Qi remained indifferent, engrossed in his magazine. "What a useless man! Good thing Miss Yu has already broken off their engagement!" Tara thought disdainfully, but she also grew anxious. Cheyenn Yu calmly said, "Oh? Seems like some of Blackbeard's men have escaped my net. Or is there someone backing Blackbeard up?" The gunman chuckled, "That's none of your concern, General Yu. Just come with us quietly." Tara Long looked to Baldwin Qi once again. Only if he took action would she have a chance to turn things around. "This coward!" Seeing Baldwin Qi's indifference, Tara gritted her teeth in anger. Cheyenn Yu stared at the three dangerous men, smiled faintly, and said, "Do you know there's a saying in Hua Country's martial arts circles— ‘Within close range, one can stand still and destroy a hostile country alone." The expressions of the three people changed instantly, and they shouted, "Stop talking nonsense! If you don't want to die, come with us immediately!" As the words had just left their lips, Cheyenn Yu, who sat in the chair, sprang up like lightning, her figure agile like a dragon. Her arms gracefully extended, and in an instant, she snatched a handgun. At the same time, her palm knife was pressed against one of their throats, and with a crisp snap, she knocked him down. The other two didn't have time to react; they both got hit on the forehead and fell to the ground, and felt like dying. In the blink of an eye, Cheyenn Yu effortlessly took down these three dangerous individuals. Tara Long was taken aback, not expecting Cheyenn Yu to single-handedly subdue three armed threats without harming any innocent bystanders. "I apologize for the disturbance. I'll arrange for someone to handle this immediately so this flight won't be delayed," Cheyenn Yu said with a slight bow and a chuckle to the stunned crowd. One of the passengers seemed to recognize her and exclaimed, "You are General Cheyenn Yu, right? The rising star in our country, dubbed the Goddess of War!" "So it's General Cheyenn Yu, my apologies for not recognizing you sooner. Being on the same flight with you is an honour." "Ha! With General Yu onboard, this flight couldn't be safer! You don't need to worry about such minor incidents." Once everyone recognized Cheyenn Yu, they couldn't help but shower her with compliments. Soon, military personnel arrived to handle the three men subdued by Cheyenn Yu, and the flight's schedule wasn't affected. Tara Long looked at Baldwin Qi with utter disdain, thinking him very unmanly. Cheyenn Yu said to Baldwin Qi with indifference, "We are from different worlds. Don't follow me anymore; it won't change my mind." Tara Long scoffed, "If you keep shamelessly following her, don't blame me for not showing mercy!" Without a doubt, this drew everyone's attention. They all looked at Baldwin Qi with a "craving for what one is not worthy of " expression, full of disdain. Baldwin Qi ignored all the taunts. Once he arrived at Zhonghai City's airport, he took his luggage and left the plane directly. "Huh? What's this?" Tara Long noticed a letter left on Baldwin Qi's seat and handed it to Cheyenn Yu. Cheyenn Yu glanced at it and then laughed, "He didn't follow me. He's here for another woman." "That's good for him. He should know very well that we're from different worlds. After this, he should finally give up." Baldwin Qi, who had just left the airport, saw a very familiar man. "Second-in-command!" Upon seeing Baldwin Qi, the man bowed deeply at a 90-degree angle and respectfully called out. This scene left the surrounding passengers in shock. "Who is that? Am I seeing it right? Isn't that our city's richest man, Bevis Wang?" "Why is Mr. Wang bowing to a young man? Could he be an important figure from the capital?" "Oh my, Bevis Wang has always been arrogant and looked down on others. Who could deserve such respect from him? This young man must be something special..." Baldwin Qi chuckled and got into Bevis Wang's Rolls-Royce. Cheyenn Yu, who had just left the airport, saw a luxurious Rolls-Royce speeding past her, and she vaguely saw a familiar figure through the window. "Hm? My eyes must be playing tricks on me." Cheyenn Yu laughed at herself, thinking how could Baldwin Qi, who was expelled from the Qi family, afford such a luxurious car?
