Currently, Lin Xi is being held captive in the VIP room on the first floor. Two guards were stationed outside, while two others guarded her from within.
On the rooftop of the second floor, Qian Ying was meditating on a couch, engrossed in casting a spell. She is safeguarded by three guards as well.
The rest of the folks, whom Qian Ying had bewitched, were positioned at the front and rear entrances of the dining area. They had been keeping an eye on Du Jun and his companions, without any respite.
Gu Ling was hiding in the surveillance room, observing everything in detail. She was sure that Lin Xi had run into trouble and that Du Jun's group was here to the rescue. Given all this, Gu Ling decided to lend a hand.
Thus, she sent a message to Lu Yi: "Brother Lu, there's an odd lady upstairs who is being guarded by three men. Could you devise something to divert them away?"
