Sorry, I’m Late!

A military-grade SUV closed in quickly. The door opened and Minister Naka got down with a few of his subordinates in tow.

The Captain had had to inform his superior of the uncontrollable situation.

Minister Naka went up to Lu Tingxiao nervously and urged, "Mr. Lu, you promised to solve this peacefully!"

"I said I’ll try," Lu Tingxiao replied.

"Mr. Lu, I know you’re deeply concerned about your wife, but there are many other ways to rescue her! It isn’t too late to take action after they set sail! There's no point to clash here, is there?" Minister Naka tried his best to convince him.

Lu Tingxiao’s expression appeared to waver.

The minister continued with his persuasion.

After a long while, Lu Tingxiao decided with a darkened expression, "Retreat."

The silver-haired man sneered at him. "Ah...retreating already? Did I even allow such a thing?"
