Ye Qiao clenched her fists and her eyes were red. She looked at Lu Beixiao and nodded heavily. Her gaze became firm.
“Brother Xiao! I’m not afraid,” she said in a deep voice, swallowing her choked throat.
“Good. Let’s go get some weapons now,” he said and took her hand, leading her to the back of the gallery. They knew every area of the shooting gallery very well.
However, what weapons could the shooting gallery have? They were only gun models.
The guns were all fake but there were other weapons that were real and not just props.
He picked a few practical imported military knives and put them in her overalls pocket.
“Do you know what these are? Do you know how to use them?”
Ye Qiao nodded as if she was a good student. He recognized all kinds of melee weapons and models of guns in the shooting gallery and even taught her. She remembered some of the knowledge that he had taught her when she first came here with Lu Beixiao two years ago.
He handed her a heavy crossbow. This crossbow was a modern version of the ancient bow and arrow. It was equipped with a scope and could accurately aim at the enemy. He gave her a lot of arrows and carried them on his back.
“I hope you don’t need to use them,” he said seriously because she was a girl who didn’t have any professional training and only knew some superficial skills.
“Oh! Buddy, there seems to be movement in the shooting gallery!” a coarse rough voice was heard.
The resourceful Lu Beixiao quickly subdued the man, almost killing him with his bare hands.
…
Just as Lu Beixiao had expected, it did seem that all this was staged deliberately as a plot to save Ah Wei. However, all of them were killed by the blood wolves that had been lying in ambush. The helicopters that carried the members of the Blood Wolves Group A quickly headed to the city to provide assistance.
“I wonder how Master Lu and Little Qiao are doing. I am so worried. Little Lu has to deal with so many of them alone!” Da Sha said as he was burning with anxiety.
“I’m just afraid that Lu Beixiao will be distracted and suffer a loss in order to take care of sister-in-law’s safety,” Shi Yu said seriously. Everyone could see how much Lu Beixiao loved Ye Qiao.
Hearing her words, Da Sha became even more worried and frowned. If there was a pen and paper at this time, he would definitely draw a talisman for them and bless them.
The other blood wolves were just as worried as he was. They wanted nothing more than to fly to their destination immediately to save them.
…
Two hours later, all the criminals at the commanding point were killed. After they were killed, the special forces rushed into the hall and quickly took care of the people on the first floor and rescued the hostages. Those men who were about to escape were all captured.
The hostages who were rescued hugged their families and cried bitterly.
Ye Qiao watched all of this with lingering fear.
When she saw Lu Beixiao again, he had already put on his battle uniform and was wearing a dignified look.
“Is the operation not over yet?” she raised her head to look at him and asked with concern.
“Yes, it has just begun. I’ve already sent someone to pick you up. Be good and don’t go anywhere for the next few days. Don’t be afraid. I’ll come back to accompany you after the mission is over!” he said to her in assurance.
Then, he stood up and wore his helmet. He looked at her and gave a solemn salute.
It was not a show of how cool he was but it represented the most sincere respect that a combat guard would offer.
This was the first time Ye Qiao had seen Lu Beixiao give such a solemn bow to her.
In an instant, a warm feeling filled her heart. Tears filled her eyes and her vision blurred. His olive-green body, resolute and solemn appearance was imprinted clearly in her eyes and mind.
