Qin Zhen saw this and helped the bodyguard up, who thanked him politely.

Chen Feng felt a bit helpless. This matter clearly had nothing to do with them, but Qin Zhen insisted on getting involved. All he could say was that this guy truly had an overwhelming sense of justice.

The three of them walked out of the elevator together, and the few people waiting for the elevator moved aside with frightened expressions.

Fortunately, there were no criminals on this floor, otherwise Chen Feng would have certainly gotten into trouble.

Just at that moment, a group of armed police burst in from the hotel's main entrance, finally arriving in time.

More than half an hour later, Chen Feng and Qin Zhen finally returned safely to their hotel room on the fifth floor.

During that half-hour, the police had a fierce gunfight with the criminals who had stormed into the hotel, eventually killing three armed criminals, while the police lost one officer and had several others injured.

Additionally, three criminals each managed to take a hapless hotel guest hostage and fled by car. However, this time the police were determined to teach these arrogant criminals a lesson, so their chances of a successful escape were slim.

Shortly after Qin Zhen finished his shower and changed into clean clothes, Anna came to find them.

She looked visibly shaken and said, "Vivian really got lucky this time. Just when she was about to invite us to dinner at the rooftop restaurant, she avoided the criminals' attack, thanks to us. Otherwise, she would have been in grave danger this time."

Thinking about it, that was true. If Vivian hadn't invited them to dinner and then gone to the rooftop, her situation might have been dire.

"Did Vivian tell you why these criminals wanted to attack her?" Qin Zhen couldn't help but ask out of curiosity.

Chen Feng was also quite interested in this and looked at her.

Anna didn't hide it, saying gravely, "Vivian said it was likely related to her father's business competitors. Recently, her father had his eyes on an undeveloped oil field in the Middle East and was competing with several rivals. Because he had a good relationship with the local sheik and could afford the price, he was the most likely to acquire it. Money tempts people, and among those competitors, someone resorted to such tactics. Today, not only was Vivian attacked, but her two brothers were also attacked, although they were unharmed. The opponents' intention was clear: they wanted her father to back down."

Hearing this, Chen Feng and Qin Zhen couldn't help but sigh at how wealthy Vivian's father was.

"So, what does her father plan to do now? Is he planning to withdraw from the oil field competition?" Chen Feng asked curiously.

Anna shook her head and said, "No, he's known for being tough and enigmatic. Vivian said her father wouldn't back down because of this. On the contrary, he plans to retaliate strongly against them, and those competitors will face the same kind of attacks on their families."

Wow!

Chen Feng secretly admired Vivian's father. Going head-to-head, tit for tat, was really something. Even when his children's lives were at stake, he didn't back down or compromise.

This must be a true hero. Not bound by his children or family ties.

Qin Zhen frowned and shook his head, "He may be a qualified business tycoon, but clearly, as a father, he is not. If something like this happened to me, I would definitely prioritize my children's safety."

Anna defended Flas, saying, "Of course, he prioritizes his children's safety. After the five bodyguards following Vivian were incapacitated at noon, her father immediately hired 10 more bodyguards from Gentleman Country at great expense, flying them in on a private jet to bolster her security."

Qin Zhen pursed his lips, clearly not thinking Flas's actions qualified him as a good father.

"Why doesn't she just go back home? She should be safer there than here, right?"

Chen Feng was genuinely puzzled as to why Vivian decided to stay here after the attack at noon.

"Vivian originally came this time to represent her father at the World Yacht Conference, which is attended by affluent individuals from around the globe, crucial for maintaining their family's connections. Today being the first day, she encountered this incident. Plus, it's not very safe at home now either, as her two brothers were attacked right outside their house."

Chen Feng nodded, finally understanding a bit.

"So, when is she planning to leave?"

"She sailed here on a yacht, and they planned to stay for at least three days, but after experiencing two attacks aimed at her, it's clear she shouldn't attend the yacht conference anymore. Her father has already contacted her and will be arriving by private jet tomorrow to take her home."

"Alright. Since we've met her, I also hope she safely gets through this crisis."

Anna nodded and asked, "When do you think we can return?"

Qin Zhen said, "We should be able to go back the day after tomorrow at the latest."

Chen Feng asked, "Why the rush to get back to Rabbit Country?"

Anna rolled her eyes at him and said, "Didn't I tell you before? I have to write my thesis, as I'm about to graduate."

"Oh, what are your plans after graduation? Are you going to stay in Rabbit Country or return to France?"

Anna said somewhat glumly, "I've been worrying about that. I've enjoyed my time in Rabbit Country these few years; the scenery and people are nice, and there's also plenty of delicious food. But France is my motherland after all, and now that I've graduated with my master's, there are quite a few opportunities for development back home. Do you think I should return to France?"

Chen Feng honestly said, "That's for you to decide. I can't make that choice for you."

Anna, somewhat annoyed, asked, "Do you personally want me to stay in Rabbit Country?"

"Well... of course, I do."

How could Chen Feng say otherwise? Naturally, he wanted that.

Anna was finally a bit pleased and nodded, "Then I'll stay in Rabbit Country to develop."

"Isn't that a bit hasty?" Chen Feng asked.

Anna frowned, "Is it bad for me to stay in Rabbit Country?"

Chen Feng was speechless. Of course, deep down he hoped she'd stay, but he also feared that ongoing interactions with her would lead to complications, hence secretly hoping she'd return home.

"You two are really something. Am I invisible?"

During their conversation, Chen Feng and Anna had practically ignored Qin Zhen's existence.

While they weren't exactly flirting, watching them interact so well and seamlessly made Qin Zhen feel like he was being force-fed dog food, and it was quite unbearable.
