The moment the explosion burst out in the air, the scene was in a complete mess. A group of people emerged out of somewhere, and they held guns in their hands as they started to attack.
Leng Zhiyuan’s bad omen inside her heart was proven right in an instant, and at this moment, a person dressed in black wanted to attack her. She stretched her leg out to kick the person’s zipper, then she snatched the man in black’s gun.
The air was full of dust, and it blurred her vision slightly. There was some heat on her back. It was Zhou Yao. He leaned over and said, “There is a sniper.”
Leng Zhiyuan had a glance at the private doctor. The private doctor was already protected by several men dressed in black, and she said, “These people are all coming for that private doctor. The moment the private doctor manages to escape, it is going to end up in chaos again. I am here. You go get rid of the private doctor.”
“Would you be okay?” He was worried as he asked her.
Leng Zhiyuan turned her head to glare at him as she said, “Have you forgotten my profession?”
Zhou Yao looked at the man dressed in black on the floor. The man’s lower half was covered in blood. Zhou Yao raised his eyebrows up as he evilly said, “Thankfully, I am your man. If not, last night, I would’ve ended up in the same situation as him.”
“You!”
Zhou Yao already dashed over to the front.
Leng Zhiyuan did not want to be petty with him and quickly went to join the warfare. She turned her head over to look at Han Xuan, and Han Xuan was in a daze as she looked over at Leng Zhiyuan. She’d probably seen Leng Zhiyuan speaking with Zhou Yao just now.
It was very dangerous for her.
Leng Zhiyuan ran over to Han Xuan.
But suddenly, there was a painful grunt in her ears. Leng Zhiyuan turned her gaze over to look sideways. The man dressed in black was attempting to garrotte Ye Ziyi’s neck, and was about to exert more strength.
Ye Ziyi was already all red in the face.
Leng Zhiyuan had no other choice but to go over and save Ye Ziyi.
Han Xuan stood on the spot as she looked on, and at this moment, it was just as if the warfare that was happening had nothing to do with her. In her eyes and in her mind, there was nothing but Zhou Yao and Leng Zhiyuan bickering sweetly with one another.
They were so loving.
Her instincts started to drift away. She broke down, and there were people who were falling into the pool of blood non stop and dying. She suddenly thought that if Leng Zhiyuan also disappeared…
If this world did not have Leng Zhiyuan anymore, would she and Older Brother Zhou go back to how they were in the past?
They would!
She’d known Older Brother Zhou for ten whole years. She still had an older brother…
Older Brother Zhou was hers!
As long as Leng Zhiyuan dispearred. Everything would be good as long as Leng Zhiyuan disappeared!
Han Xuan knew that she was going nuts, but actually, she was wide awake. Last night in the jail cell, she had long guessed that there would be a sudden attack this morning, and there would be a group of people coming to save the private doctor and kill Leng Zhiyuan, but she did not tell anyone about it.
She did not warn Zhou Yao.
Actually, she had long prepared herself mentally, right?
Han Xuan noticed that Leng Zhiyuan had already saved Ye Ziyi, and Zhou Yao on the other side was battling with the other men in black. The men in black were already on the losing end, and the private doctor by their side was already close to danger.
“Older Brother Zhou, be careful!” Han Xuan parted her legs and dashed over to Zhou Yao immediately.
Zhou Yao was done handling a few men in black and turned his gaze back. He saw that the private doctor was already holding Han Xuan hostage, and he held a gun to Han Xuan’s head.
“Major General Zhou, stop right now!” The private doctor had a cunning smile on his face as he spoke.
The other men in black were either dead or badly injured, and the entire scene was already under control now. Leng Zhiyuan helped Ye Ziyi up as they stood in the distance to look on. Zhou Yao had a glance at Han Xuan, who was held hostage, and he threw the gun that he was holding in his hand.
He was cold as he curled the corners of his lips up and said, “You have also seen it. It is hard for you to escape now. Let go of Han Xuan, and maybe we can negotiate terms with one another.”
“Haha.” The private doctor was unbothered and broke out into loud laughter as he said, “Being in the hands of Major General Zhou who is extremely well known, I am in awe of you, and today, I do not plan to come out of this alive, but I want someone!”
“Who?” Zhou Yao asked.
The private doctor’s gaze went around the scene before it was fixed on Leng Zhiyuan in the distance, and he said, “Young Miss Leng.”
Leng Zhiyuan, who was named, was a little taken aback, but she was not too flustered. She let go of Ye Ziyi and stood up straight, “Why me?”
“Because without Young Miss Leng, I would not be standing here today. Everything went so successfully today thanks to you,” the private doctor answered.
Zhou Yao had a look at Leng Zhiyuan before he moved his thin lips and said, “That is not possible. The person who caught you is me. Let go of Han Xuan, and I will be your hostage.”
“Haha, Major General Zhou, what would I want you for? You are my hostage now, and I might not be able to tell. In the next second, I might become your hostage instead.” As he spoke, the private doctor forcefully hit Han Xuan’s head. “Major General Zhou, quickly make your decision. Use Young Miss Leng in exchange for Han Xuan. Between the two of them, only one of them can live. Who would you pick?”
Han Xuan was under the private doctor’s control and was trembling from head to toe. Her face was all pale as she looked at Zhou Yao. She was all pitiful and pathetic as she said, “Older Brother Zhou, don’t…worry about me. I am fine. Let me…die. I… My older brother…would not blame you…”
Zhou Yao’s handsome features were all tight, and his defined curves made him look extremely stern. His thin lips were pursed together in a pale white line as he clenched his fists.
Leng Zhiyuan and Han Xuan…
He had to pick one now.
“Major General Zhou, don’t waste any more time. I will count from one to three. If you don’t make a decision, I will help you make the decision.”
“One.”
“Two.”
“Three.”
“Ah!” Han Xuan lost control as she let out a scream, and that was because the private doctor had already loaded the gun that was against her head.
“Wait a moment!”
Two voices rang out at the same time.
Zhou Yao and Leng Zhiyuan spoke at the same time.
Zhou Yao quickly turned his gaze over to look at Leng Zhiyuan. Leng Zhiyuan had already thrown the gun in her hand, and she held both her hands up to surrender as she stepped forward slowly. She looked at the private doctor and had a relaxed smile on her face. “Don’t touch Han Xuan, I am here now.”
“Zhiyuan!” Ye Ziyi shouted out immediately, and he looked over at Zhou Yao and said, “Major General Zhou, this is your decision?”
Zhou Yao’s narrow dark gaze was black and deep. His eyes were like tight webs. He was quiet and bright as he stared at Leng Zhiyuan’s face.
Leng Zhiyuan glanced at him and did not say anything, but she had a smile on her face.
“I am already here. Let go of Han Xuan.” She stood in front of the private doctor.
The private doctor laughed coldly and said, “Okay, since Young Miss Leng is here, then I can let Han Xuan go, but before I let Han Xuan go, I will still have to kill you first!”
The private doctor’s gaze became sharp, and he quickly moved the gun to point it at Leng Zhiyuan.
Bang! The bullet flew out.
Han Xuan felt that she was unable to breathe anymore. Leng Zhiyuan was just standing before her, and she saw the bullet fly towards her head before her own eyes. Would she die?
Would Leng Zhiyuan die here?
She knew that Zhou Yao had her inside his heart. If not, when he was asked to choose between her and Leng Zhiyuan, he said those words: Wait a moment.
Those words meant that he was choosing for her to live.
Han Xuan hated that she could not dash into Zhou Yao’s embrace immediately. She wanted to hug him tight and kiss him. She wanted to tell him that in the future, there would be no other person who would separate them again, and she wanted to be together with him forever.
Han Xuan was being all smitten as she pondered, and at this moment, there was a bang as another bullet quickly followed.
