### Chapter 132: "Pink Fox"
(Yesterday, I took a day off and pulled an all-nighter. Let’s kick things off with Dream Theater’s *Another Day* to get pumped and dive in!)
The heavy iron door was slammed open, crashing against the wall with a deafening *clang* that made Ling Aya jump in fright.
The hood was roughly yanked off her head.
Ling Aya finally realized that her kidnapper was Xuan Lie.
Xuan Lie’s unnaturally wicked aura and the highly “artistic” tattoos on his face filled Ling Aya with both disgust and fear.
Xuan Lie crouched down in front of her, flashing a seemingly harmless smile, and said softly, “Like it? Want to know how I got these tattoos?”
As he spoke, Xuan Lie reached out to touch Ling Aya’s beautiful face, his expression turning sinister as he chuckled, “For every woman I violate, I add a line.”
“You’re number 214, right here…”
Xuan Lie grabbed Ling Aya’s hand, forcing her index finger to trace his face.
“This line represents you. You’ll be with me forever…”
“Ptoo!”
Ling Aya spat fiercely in Xuan Lie’s face, glaring at him coldly.
“Heh heh heh…” Xuan Lie didn’t even dodge, letting out a wide grin.
“Just wait, you’ll be begging me to play with you soon~” Xuan Lie waved a hand behind him, and a burly man in a suit stepped forward, pulling a delicate red box from his inner pocket.
Xuan Lie opened the box, leaning close to Ling Aya’s face, and whispered, “This is called ‘Pink Fox’~”
“Unlike those cheap drugs, this won’t get you hooked. Just one dose, and you’ll fall madly in love with everyone you see!”
Ling Aya clenched her teeth, glaring at Xuan Lie with such intensity that she seemed ready to kill him with her eyes alone.
“Pry her mouth open and feed it to her,” Xuan Lie said with a slow, amused smile as he stood up.
Two burly men stepped forward at his command. One pinned Ling Aya’s hands, while the other forced her mouth open with his thumb.
Ling Aya thrashed her head wildly, her hair becoming a disheveled mess as she kicked her legs frantically.
The suited man raised a rough hand and slapped Ling Aya’s pale, delicate face. “You damned beast! Let her go!”
Suddenly, two more men in similar attire rushed out from behind Xuan Lie, blocking Wu Xuan’s path.
But Wu Xuan didn’t back down. His fury intensified, and he barreled through them.
Xuan Lie was caught off guard, sent flying backward and crashing heavily onto a sofa.
Wu Xuan lunged forward, scooping Ling Aya into his arms.
But in an instant, seven or eight more burly men emerged from the darkness, surrounding him tightly.
Gasping for breath, Wu Xuan pulled back, then charged into an inner room. The iron door slammed shut, and the electromagnetic lock engaged with a click.
Wu Xuan smashed the electromagnetic lock with a single punch, sealing himself and Ling Aya off from the outside world.
Xuan Lie leapt up from the sofa, roaring in frustration and pounding his fist against the exoskeletal armor of the surrounding men.
But his anger quickly subsided.
Two more figures burst in from the corridor.
One tall, the other slightly shorter.
Xuan Lie focused his gaze, then switched to a leering grin, chuckling under his breath, “My dear brother, you’re here!”
