Zi Xin sat opposite them, his gaze fixed silently on the passing landscape, dark eyes thoughtful and still.
Suddenly, Mo Han's voice crackled through the earpiece feeds.
"Boss. Suspicious vehicles approaching from the rear and flanks. Formation tightening now."
Mu Shen's dark gaze lifted instantly, cold and sharp. He tapped Meili's arm lightly. "Wake up."
