The two of them froze when they saw each other.
It was clear that they did not expect to see the other.
“Lock all of the doors in the supermarket. Don’t let out even a mosquito out before we find him!” A man holding onto a gun shouted in rage.
The customers and cashiers in the supermarket were all squatting and hugging their heads. No one dared to say anything.
Nan Zhi stared at Xiao Yi, who was squatting beside her and had kept his gun. Her eyebrows were furrowed tightly together.
Why was she so unlucky? To think she had actually managed to get into something like this when she had only came out to buy a bottle of soy sauce.
The leader of the armed men was bald. Nan Zhi looked out from under the rack. Her heartbeat increased rapidly when she saw the bald man heading over towards her with a gun in his hand.
Would the bald man think that she was Xiao Yi’s accomplice when he saw them together? Although she did not know what Xiao Yi did to anger these people, but it was clear that it was not a joke and she could lose her life with him…
Xiao Yi had also heard the sound of the bald man walking over. He whispered to Nan Zhi, “I saved your life once at the deserted island.”
Nan Zhi’s lips trembled.
Was he asking her to repay him now for that time?
“You’re very smart. I believe that you can help me.”
Nan Zhi stared at Xiao Yi for a few seconds, “Alright, I’ll return your favor.” She climbed out from under the racks swiftly, before blocking the racks with some large items and stood in front of the racks.
The bald man walked over.
He saw the blood on the floor, and a bloodthirsty coldness flashed in his eyes.
The bald man raised his gun and aimed it at Nan Zhi’s head.
Nan Zhi’s left hand was in the pockets of her jacket. She pursed her lips tightly, as thin sweat appeared on her forehead.
The bald man walked over and asked her in English, “Did you see a Chinese man who got shot at his hand and leg?”
Nan Zhi’s face was completely pale, as she acted like she was in complete fear, “N-No.”
“No?” The bald man had a murderous look, as he interrogated her fiercely, “Then where did the blood on the floor come from?” With that said, his finger pushed on the trigger slightly. It was as if he would shoot her head anytime if Nan Zhi dared to lie.
Nan Zhi stretched out her hand from her pocket, “Played with knife… Cut myself accidentally… I’m scared mummy scold.”
The bald man saw a cut on Nan Zhi’s palm, with blood still oozing out of his palm. He glanced at her expression again, which looked dumb and foolish like a retard. He furrowed his eyebrows. “Are you a fool?”
“No, no, no, I’m not a fool. Mommy said that I’m the smartest.”
The bald man pushed the gun against her forehead again. She grabbed the gun with her injured hand. “Hehe, is this a toy gun? I have one at home too.”
Any suspicion the bald man had were gone at that and he turned around to start searching in the next area.
Nan Zhi let out a long breath in relief.
The armed men left the supermarket after about ten minutes later when they could not find the person they were looking for.
Nan Zhi fell to the floor with her forehead covered in sweat.
Xiao Yi pushed the large items away and got out from under the racks. He sat next to Nan Zhi, “You’re indeed really smart.”
Nan Zhi looked at him in irritation. “Stay away from me. I’ve already repaid your favor from before, and whatever happens to you is none of my business from now on.” She got up, wanting to leave when Xiao Yi grabbed her again. “Take me somewhere safe.”
“What? Are you out of your mind?”
“I brought you out from the deserted island and didn’t leave you in the ocean.”
Nan Zhi had no words.
Nan Zhi was worried that the men had not gone too far and she only supported Xiao Yi to leave the supermarket after another half an hour had passed.
She was cycling the bicycle while Xiao Yi was sitting behind her.
Nan Zhi felt like tens of thousands of llamas were running across in her head as she was carrying a tall and heavy man behind her while her palm had been cut open.
“Xiao Yi, if you’re still alive after this, please stay away from Yanran.”
The man behind her was about to reply her when he realized that things were wrong. The bald man had caught up to them with his men.
“Cycle faster.”
Nan Zhi heard the gunshots from behind her.
She trembled in fear, and the bicycle toppled.
Xiao Yi and her had both fallen onto the floor.
“Get up quick and run.” Xiao Yi did not care about the injury he had on his arm. He pulled Nan Zhi up immediately and started running.
The two of them reached an alley, but Xiao Yi’s speed was obviously slower than before.
Nan Zhi asked as she panted, “What’s wrong?”
“We can’t escape anymore.”
Xiao Yi just finished his words when several armed men walked out from the two ends of the alley.
The leader was still that fierce old man.
“Xiao Yi, who did you offend exactly? I’m really doomed because of you.”
Xiao Yi pushed Nan Zhi behind him, as he stared dangerously at the bald man. “She’s innocent, let her go.”
“Innocent?” The bald man laughed out loud, “She lied to me to cover for you, she deserves to die like you!”
“What did you do to make him want to kill you so badly?” Nan Zhi asked softly.
“I killed his boss, stole his boss’ woman, and got him jailed for ten years when I was still in the mafia.”
Nan Zhi’s lips twitched.
It was no wonder the bald man wanted to kill him, Xiao Yi was indeed quite ruthless.
The bald man gave an order, and several guns were aimed at Xiao Yi and Nan Zhi.
Nan Zhi thought that Xiao Yi and her would become target boards if they were fired at.
Xiao Yi’s expression was completely dark. “She’s Mu Sihan’s woman.”
Surprise flashed in the bald man’s eyes when he heard the name ‘Mu Sihan’.
However, he smirked coldly within a few seconds, “Xiao Yi, do you think I’m stupid? Mu Sihan just got engaged in Ning City, are you mentioning him so that I’ll spare you?”
Nan Zhi did not think that the bald man would know Mu Sihan. Not to mention, from the bald man’s tone, Mu Sihan seemed to hold quite a lot of influence to him…
Was Mu Sihan in the mafia as well?
Xiao Yi muttered to Nan Zhi softly, seeing that the bald man did not believe him, “Think of a way to prove that you’re Mu Sihan’s woman.”
Nan Zhi furrowed her eyebrows.
Prove that she was Mu Sihan’s woman?
How was she going to prove something like that?
Nan Zhi hurriedly caressed her neck. She had taken off bullet necklace that Mu Sihan gave her the night he had the engagement ceremony.
“He gave me a bullet that almost went into his heart.”
The bald man scoffed, as he aimed the gun at Nan Zhi’s forehead. “How about I give you a bullet in the heart now?”
“Boss, this girl looks really pretty. How about you let us play with her before you kill her?” Several armed men were drooling when they leered at Nan Zhi.
“I can call Mu Sihan right now!” Nan Zhi said hurriedly, her heart almost leaping out of her throat.
“Call the King of Hell instead!” It was obvious the bald man did not want to talk to them anymore. He pressed lightly on the trigger, wanting to fire already.
Right then, a cold voice trailed over.
“Who dares to shoot?”
More than ten bullet-proof black sedans drove towards the alley at a breakneck speed. A man dressed in a black suit was sitting in the first car.
The handsome straight eyebrows, deep black eyes, well-defined nose bridge and distinct lips… Who else did the handsome facial features that looked like they were carved out belong to, apart from Mu Sihan?
Nan Zhi blinked. For a moment, she thought that she was hallucinating.
Why would he appear here?
