章 30: This Won't Do

Still reeling from the events of yesterday, Li Na stepped out of the room, her expression clouding over with gloom. As Little Tiger's mother, she was already burdened with responsibilities, and her connection with Lis only compounded her troubles. Doubts plagued her mind—would she ever reunite with her family? The possibility seemed increasingly remote. She knew her parents well; they were fiercely protective. Mei Xing had kept her role in the intelligence agency a secret, aware that her mother would never condone her involvement in the chaotic world of superpowers and criminal underworlds. The cruelty of the Underworld was no secret, with its brutal methods of dispatching influential figures and overtaking control in plain sight of a helpless global law enforcement.

After a solitary breakfast, Li Na was summoned to the study room on the top floor. Lu Jianjun, Lu Junhui, and Bai Tian were already there, waiting.
