Ye Qiu drove back, but he was in a foul mood.

First, the situation with Xiao Long made him agitated, and second, the police were still after him at this time.

As Lin Jie put it, Xu Long thought that if they were going to act, the performance should be more authentic.

"Damn it, I'm just helping out for free..."

Ye Qiu muttered discontentedly, but thinking about saving Xu Lei, he realized it was pointless to complain further now as things had already come this far.

Driving slowly toward the city center.

The thing Ye Qiu found most frustrating right now was that he still had to drive the car; if he didn't, the five billion worth of goods onboard would be lost, which would definitely make Xu Batian suspicious.

And while driving this car, he had already been exposed by the police earlier, they were aware of it.

Driving this car back now, wasn't that just akin to walking into a trap?

"Ah, it's really troubling."

Ye Qiu sighed helplessly, but he had no choice. Up ahead was the checkpoint for entering the city. Looking at the rows of police cars and those armed officers, Ye Qiu felt quite speechless.

"Rush through."

Finally, Ye Qiu made a decision, which was to charge through.

Thinking this, Ye Qiu stepped on the gas pedal and then charged forward.

...

When Xu Long received Lin Jie's report that Ye Qiu was still alive and on his way back, he brought his men to the intersection to capture Ye Qiu.

At this moment, seeing Ye Qiu's car appear in the distance, he immediately ordered everyone to stop him with all their might.

Bullets were loaded, and tire spikes were pulled out.

Watching the car speeding toward them, Xu Long felt a bit speechless too, thinking to himself, "This kid, he's actually rushing in so fast."

Bang.

Ye Qiu's car rushed through several layers of obstacles, and the tire burst immediately.

However, Ye Qiu's car did not stop and continued to rush forward.

"Damn, can it be done like this?" Xu Long was surprised, and so were the police, who didn't expect a car with burst tires to speed ahead so fast.

"He won't escape, capture him for me. You can shoot..."

Upon hearing Xu Long's startled command, the police officers started shooting at Ye Qiu, making a racket of gunfire that hit the body of Ye Qiu's car.

"Damn you, Xu Long, are you trying to kill me?"

Ye Qiu cursed Xu Long in his heart but continued to control the car steadily, not allowing any mistakes.

Nevertheless, no matter how skilled he was at driving, his four tires had already burst three, and the car body was riddled with holes, with engine leaks and gasoline spilling out.

Despite his skills, Ye Qiu was powerless in this moment.

"Damn, what is this, are they trying to capture me or kill me?"

Ye Qiu didn't understand what Xu Long was playing at; if he was killed, what would happen to the undercover operation?

And just then, he was surrounded by the police.

Looking at the armed officers around, Ye Qiu's heart sank.

"What should be done now?"

And at that moment, a few cars suddenly sped up from a distance, accompanied by gunshots.

The police panicked and responded in a hurried manner as the group reached Ye Qiu, with Lin Jie calling to Ye Qiu from a black sports car: "Hurry over here."

Ye Qiu was startled but then asked, "What about the goods that need to be withdrawn?"

Lin Jie said, "Don't worry about it, saving your life is the priority."

Ye Qiu gritted his teeth, ran to Lin Jie's car, and left with him. After they left, the gunfire stopped. Although a few police officers were injured, none were fatally wounded.

"Boss, should we chase them?"

A policeman asked Xu Long.

Xu Long shook his head: "No need to chase, didn't we get a surprise?"

"What's the surprise?" asked the policeman.

Xu Long walked up to Ye Qiu's car, lifted up the seat, and underneath were packages of goods, leaving the police dumbfounded, inhaling sharply, and then unable to hide their surprise.

Seeing his subordinates in this state, Xu Long smiled contentedly and murmured, "This is just the beginning."

...

"Damn it, Xu Long, what on earth is he doing? If you hadn't come, I would have been dead."

Sitting in Lin Jie's car, Ye Qiu cursed all the way.

Lin Jie's expression turned slightly bitter, unable to hold back: "Actually, it was me who told him about it, you coming back."

"You what?" Ye Qiu looked at Lin Jie confusedly.

Lin Jie said: "Only with a more authentic capture scene will Xu Batian trust you more."

"More authentic nearly cost me my life, truly authentic," Ye Qiu mocked.

Lin Jie laughed: "But weren't you fine in the end? We had everything under control."

"Under control, why don't you try sitting in a car with bullets flying all around?"

Ye Qiu said.

Lin Jie replied: "I've experienced it many times already."

Upon hearing this, Ye Qiu was stunned, looking at Lin Jie deeply, and then fell into silence.

Lin Jie had been undercover for almost ten years, and the probability of an incident like today happening was not small, possibly even more serious than this.

Seeing Ye Qiu fall silent, Lin Jie smiled: "Don't worry, Xu Long will recommend you for a commendation after this mission. You'll be surprised."

Ye Qiu said: "I just hope to stay alive, commendations don't matter."

Lin Jie chuckled: "Once Xu Batian is taken down, and you see what Xu Long gives you, you won't say that. Believe me, you will be surprised."

Ye Qiu sneered, not believing his words.

After a while, Ye Qiu suddenly frowned and said: "I handed over five billion worth of Xu Batian's goods to the police, is that okay?"

Lin Jie said: "It's fine, I was sent to rescue you by Xu Batian, and he said as long as you're alive, the loss of goods doesn't matter."

Ye Qiu was stunned, then nodded and said with a wry smile: "Seems like Xu Batian trusts me now?"

Lin Jie said: "I didn't expect Xu Batian to trust you so quickly either. He tested me many times back then."

Saying this, Lin Jie furrowed his brows: "Xu Batian is considering retirement soon. I think he wants to finish this last big deal quickly and then wash his hands from it all."

"Is it that easy? Even if he retires and gets caught with evidence, can't he still be captured?" Ye Qiu asked.

Lin Jie shook his head: "The fact that Xu Batian reached his position today means there are reasons. He has people backing him, and without definite proof of a serious crime, capturing him is very difficult. Especially after he retires, the evidence will be few and far between, so we must capture him in this last operation."

Ye Qiu nodded.

Lin Jie looked at Ye Qiu: "So, Ye Qiu, this mission is serious and of great importance. I hope you commit yourself to helping us complete this, to wipe out the malignant tumor that is Xu Batian."

Ye Qiu furrowed his brow.

Lin Jie said: "Do it as a favor for me too, I'm begging you. I've been hanging by a thread for ten years, and I want to rest. I'm a bit exhausted."
