Chapter 1664 Ah!

"Brother, is this really not the best way for us to escape like this?" Li Xiaoyu's voice contained a hint of uncertainty. She knew her brother was doing it for her own good, but such evasion always made her feel uneasy.

Li Ziyang sighed softly, clenched the steering wheel with both hands, and said with firm eyes: "Xiaoyu, I understand your worries. But I can't let you marry someone you don't love. That would be irresponsible to you. Moreover, I I believe there will always be a solution.”

The car slowly drove into a high-end residential area and finally stopped in front of a villa with simple yet elegant decoration. This is a private space that Li Ziyang purchased with his own savings, a haven that allows him and Xiao Yu to temporarily escape from the family's turmoil.

Entering the villa, Li Ziyang turned on the light, and the warm light instantly dispelled the chill outside. He led Xiao Yu to sit on the sofa, and the two looked at each other speechlessly, both thinking about the next strategy.

At this moment, news about Yue Ming and Duan Jinglin came like timely rain. They made an appointment to meet at the villa to discuss a solution.

Soon, the doorbell rang, and Li Ziyang stood up and opened the door. Yue Ming and Duan Jinglin stood outside the door dusty, with a bit of anxiety on their faces.

"Ziyang, Xiaoyu, are you okay?" Yue Ming asked as soon as he entered the door. His eyes glanced back and forth at the two of them, and he breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that they were safe and sound.

Duan Jinglin also nodded and said in a serious tone: "We heard that you had a falling out with your family, so we came over quickly. What happened?"

Li Ziyang briefly explained the situation, mentioning the Luo family's marriage and Xiao Yu's firm opposition. After hearing this, Yue Ming frowned. After thinking for a moment, his eyes suddenly lit up: "Ziyang, I have an idea. Maybe we can ask instructor Qin Yuan for help."

"Qin Yuan?" Li Ziyang was stunned when he heard this. In Li Ziyang's impression, Qin Yuan was more like a mysterious existence, which seemed not to be directly related to the current predicament.

"Are you sure the instructor can solve this problem?" Li Ziyang asked doubtfully, with a hint of disbelief in his tone.

Yue Ming was full of confidence: "In my eyes, Qin Yuan is omnipotent. He has helped us a lot before, and maybe he can find a solution this time."

Duan Jinglin also echoed: "Yes, although Instructor Qin doesn't talk much, he can always give the most appropriate advice at critical moments. I think you can give it a try."

Li Ziyang was silent for a moment, weighing the pros and cons in his mind. He knew that it would be difficult for him and Xiaoyu to resist the pressure from his family. And Qin Yuan may really be a trustworthy helper.

"Okay, then let's try to contact Instructor Qin. However, we have to think about how to say it, and we can't let him think that we are making trouble unreasonably." Li Ziyang finally decided, with a firm light shining in his eyes.

The four of them sat around the coffee table in the living room and began to discuss specific plans. Yue Ming suggested that he could explain the situation to Qin Yuan first, emphasizing that this was a matter of Xiaoyu's personal happiness, not a simple family dispute. Duan Jinglin suggested that Qin Yuan can be asked to help analyze the situation and see if there are other solutions, such as easing the relationship between the two through business cooperation rather than a simple marriage.

Li Ziyang nodded in agreement, and decided to call Qin Yuan personally. After all, this was a personal issue between them and they needed to communicate directly. He dialed Qin Yuan's number, and while waiting for the call to be connected, he couldn't help but feel a little uneasy.

The call was finally connected, and Qin Yuan's calm and magnetic voice came: "Ziyang, what's the matter?"

Li Ziyang took a deep breath, briefly told Qin Yuan the whole story, and expressed their request for help. After hearing this, Qin Yuan was silent for a moment, and then slowly said: "Ziyang, I understand your difficulties. But the important matter of marriage involves not only the feelings of two people, but also the interests and face of the family. Have you ever thought about it? Even if I can help you escape temporarily, in the long run, the problem will still exist.”

Li Ziyang's heart sank when he heard this, but he did not give up: "Instructor, we know that this issue is very complicated. But Xiaoyu really doesn't want to marry Mr. Luo. She has her own pursuits and dreams. We just want to find someone who can both A solution that protects Xiao Yu’s happiness while minimizing harm to the family’s interests.”

After hearing this, Qin Yuan sighed softly: "Okay, since you are so insistent, then I will help you find a way. However, I need some time to investigate the specific situation of the Luo family and your family, and the reasons behind this marriage. The real purpose. Wait for my news first and don’t act rashly.”

After hanging up the phone, Li Ziyang conveyed Qin Yuan's words to Yue Ming and Duan Jinglin. The three of them looked at each other and smiled. Although the problem has not been solved yet, at least they saw the glimmer of hope.

At this moment, Qin Yuan was on the vast high seas. A luxury cruise ship was sailing slowly, with deep blue waves rolling on both sides of the ship, as if the hustle and bustle of the entire world was cut off. This cruise ship is not only a stage for the rich to display their wealth and status, but also the safe haven chosen by Zhou Meier, the daughter of the richest man, for this vacation. And Qin Yuan, a former special soldier with extraordinary skills and sharp eyes, was hired with a large sum of money as a bodyguard to protect this rich lady.

As the night gets darker, the lights on the cruise ship are dazzling, illuminating every corner on the deck. Qin Yuan was wearing a black suit and stood beside Zhou Meier, like an unshakable patron saint. The call he just hung up was from Li Ziyang. He asked for help regarding Li Xiaoyu's marriage. Qin Yuan could not help but frown slightly, but he soon regained his composure.

Zhou Meir was wearing a long, glittering dress, which swayed gently in the sea breeze. She had a playful smile on her lips, and looked at Qin Yuan with a teasing look in her eyes: "Qin Yuan, you are so busy that you can't even have a rest during your vacation. Do you feel that following me is like raising a group of sons, and you have to be on guard all the time?"

Qin Yuan shrugged, and a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. There was both helplessness and relief in that smile: "Miss Meir, you are too serious. It is my duty to protect you. As for those phone calls, they are just part of life."

Zhou Meir chuckled, a hint of admiration flashed in her eyes, and then she stretched out her hand and invited elegantly: "In that case, don't let troubles affect this beautiful night. Come, dance with me, let's forget those trivial matters for a while."

Qin Yuan nodded slightly, stretched out his hand and held Zhou Meir's hand, and the two stepped onto the dance floor. The music sounded, a melodious and slightly rhythmic waltz, their steps were tacit and elegant, as if the whole world had stopped. However, in this seemingly romantic atmosphere, Qin Yuan's eyes remained alert, his senses were maximized, and he was always paying attention to everything around him. Around the dance floor, the guests were chatting and laughing, or drinking together, a scene of joy. But Qin Yuan felt a little uneasy in his heart. This intuition had helped him to escape danger countless times in crises. He scanned the surroundings calmly, not letting go of every detail.

Suddenly, Qin Yuan's eyes fixed on a corner of the second floor, where there was a faint reflection, which looked particularly abrupt under the flickering lights. His heartbeat couldn't help but accelerate, and years of training made him immediately realize that it was probably the reflector of a sniper rifle.

Without a moment's hesitation, Qin Yuan quickly and gracefully pulled Zhou Meir, and with a spinning motion, he cleverly took her away from the center of the dance floor and hid in a blind spot next to it. Although Zhou Meir was a little confused by the sudden action, she didn't ask much because of her trust in Qin Yuan. She just followed him closely.

Just when they had just stood firm, a gunshot broke the tranquility of the night sky and alarmed everyone on the cruise ship. The bullet penetrated the glass on the deck and flew past the place where they were just now, leaving a shocking crack.

Zhou Meir's face turned pale in an instant. She grabbed Qin Yuan's arm tightly, and her voice trembled a little: "Qin Yuan, what's going on? Does anyone want to kill me?"

Qin Yuan's eyes became extremely cold. He gently patted Zhou Meir's back of the hand to comfort her: "Don't be afraid, I'm here. The specific situation is not clear now, but I will keep you safe."

After speaking, Qin Yuan quickly took out a small walkie-talkie from his pocket and whispered an emergency order to the security team on the cruise ship, asking them to immediately block all exits and conduct a comprehensive search. At the same time, he also quickly analyzed the current situation and had a preliminary inference in his mind.

Zhou Meir looked at Qin Yuan's calm and decisive handling method, and the fear in her heart gradually dissipated, replaced by deep trust in Qin Yuan. She followed Qin Yuan closely, and the two of them walked along the safety passage to the safety room of the cruise ship.

On the way, Qin Yuan was alert to the surrounding environment and explained to Zhou Meir: "This incident may be related to your identity, or someone wants to use it to create chaos. In any case, I will do my best to protect you until I find the mastermind behind the scenes."

Zhou Meir nodded, and a trace of firmness flashed in her eyes: "I believe you, Qin Yuan. As long as you are here, I am not afraid."

The two soon came to the safety room, which was equipped with an advanced monitoring system that can monitor every corner of the cruise ship in real time. Qin Yuan quickly retrieved the surveillance video before and after the gunshot and carefully analyzed every detail.

After some investigation, Qin Yuan finally found something suspicious. A man in a waiter's uniform had sneakily appeared in the corner of the second floor a few minutes before the gunshot, carrying a seemingly ordinary toolbox in his hand. After the gunshot, the man quickly disappeared into the crowd.

Qin Yuan immediately switched the intercom to the security channel, told the security team the characteristics of the suspect and the last location he appeared, and asked them to immediately start the pursuit. At the same time, he also contacted the medical team on the cruise ship to ensure that if anyone was injured, they could be treated quickly.

As time went on, the security team gradually narrowed the encirclement.

With his keen intuition and years of combat experience, Qin Yuan quickly locked the last location of the suspect - the power cabin of the cruise ship. Away from the hustle and bustle of the guests, the machinery roared, it was the heart of the cruise ship, and it was also an ideal place to hide. He took a deep breath, adjusted his state, and decided to go deep into the tiger's den alone.

In the power cabin, the intricate pipes and huge mechanical devices formed a maze-like environment. Under the dim light, every shadow may hide unknown dangers. Qin Yuan moved carefully, taking every step with extreme caution, fearing to alert the lurking enemy.

Suddenly, a subtle sound broke the silence, and Qin Yuan immediately became alert. He looked in the direction of the sound and saw a man in a waiter's uniform hiding behind a huge generator, holding a pistol tightly in his hand, with a look of tension and determination in his eyes.

"Stop!" Qin Yuan shouted coldly, approached quickly, and at the same time seized an opportunity, jumped suddenly, and tried to subdue the other party from behind. However, the suspect was obviously not an ordinary person. He reacted very quickly, dodged Qin Yuan's attack with a sideways move, and at the same time seized the opportunity to pull the trigger.

"Bang!" A gunshot rang out, and the bullet echoed in the narrow space, almost hitting Qin Yuan. With his extraordinary skills, he twisted his body in the air and narrowly avoided this fatal blow. However, the impact of the bullet still made his cheek rub a line of fire, leaving a shallow blood mark.

The pain made Qin Yuan's eyes sharper. The moment he landed, he rolled over and picked up a metal pipe next to him as a temporary weapon. Seeing this, the suspect was not to be outdone and raised his gun again, but Qin Yuan was already prepared. He used the metal pipe as a cover and cleverly avoided the continuous shooting.

"Do you think you can escape like this?" Qin Yuan's voice was low and powerful. He held the metal pipe tightly and approached the suspect step by step, revealing an unquestionable firmness in his eyes.

The suspect obviously felt the strong pressure from Qin Yuan. His fingers began to tremble slightly, but he was still tough: "Don't come over! Otherwise I will really shoot!"

Qin Yuan sneered. He knew that psychological warfare was equally important in this situation. He deliberately slowed down his pace and said in a relaxed tone: "You shoot, see if you can knock me down before I get close to you. However, I have to say in advance that my skills have been tempered, and I'm afraid it will be difficult for you to hit me with this shot."

The suspect's face became paler, and he clenched his teeth, as if he was making a final struggle. However, at this moment, Qin Yuan suddenly accelerated, rushed to the suspect in one step, and the metal pipe hit his wrist fiercely.

"Ah!" The suspect cried out in pain, and the pistol flew out of his hand and flew to the ground not far away. Qin Yuan took the opportunity to kneel the suspect, and then quickly went behind him, strangled his throat with one hand, and firmly grasped his wrist with the other hand.

"The game is over, you are my prisoner now." Qin Yuan's voice was cold and firm. He lifted the suspect up with force, and his tone was full of unquestionable majesty.
