Shen Qianshu said, “Thank God… Thank God… You guys ruined the explosives at the right time.”
Mu Yuan said, “We’re just doing our job.”
There was a hospital in the town, and the injured people had been sent to the hospital for treatment of their wounds. Xue Er needed to undergo an operation while Shen Qianshu only needed some simple bandaging. Ye Ling never left her by a single step. He stayed by her side. Meng Qi stood at the entrance of the hospital like a guardian angel. He looked lonely and pitiful.
Shen Qianshu looked at him and tugged at Ye Ling’s sleeve. “Go talk to Meng Qi.”
“There’s nothing to talk about.” Ye Ling refused to speak to Meng Qi.
Shen Qianshu said, “Although he fired in my direction, not a single bullet hit me. It didn’t even graze me. He is such a great sniper using his own sniper rifle, yet he did not hit me. Do you think… he really wanted to kill me?”
Ye Ling remained cold, and he looked indifferent.
Shen Qianshu sighed. “Master, go. He looks so pitiful that it’s as if I had bullied him. Go and have a chat with him. The doctor has bandaged me, so I’ll be fine soon.”
The doctor in the small clinic was disinfecting Shen Qianshu’s wound, and she was clenching her teeth from all the pain. Ye Ling turned around, and Shen Qianshu waved at him. Her warm smile was imprinted in his mind.
Ye Ling bit his lip and walked towards Meng Qi.
In front of Ye Ling, Meng Qi looked like a small obedient child. He listened to Ye Ling with his head lowered. He did not look rebellious at all, and the gloomy look on his face turned to look wronged.
“Go home!” Ye Ling said.
Meng Qi was hesitant. He was pacing around nervously, and he did not dare to maintain eye contact with Ye Ling.
Ye Ling said, “Luther is very worried about you.”
“Bro, will you forgive me?”
Ye Ling laughed coldly. “What have you done me wrong?”
Meng Qi was silent. Bro, you know what I did, yet you still ask.
Ye Ling said, “Luther has already told me about you. Now, your mission is accomplished. You won’t be involved from now on. Return to Paris.”
“I want to stay by your side,” Meng Qi said. “I want to protect you.”
“I don’t need you!” Ye Ling looked at him. “I have to protect someone, and I cannot keep a lookout for you. I won’t let you mingle around her either.”
Meng Qi was exploded in anger instantly. “Bro, is she so important to you? Must you put yourself at risk of death for her? If you weren’t lucky this time and activated the hologram, only you or she would survive. You would pick her, huh?”
“She is my everything. If I don’t pick her, do I pick you?” Ye Ling looked at Meng Qi coldly. “When will you grow up? Stop putting all your feelings into people who don’t matter.”
“She’s your everything?” Meng Qi was greatly hurt.
I should not have helped Monica. I should not have helped them from the start... Meng Qi felt really wronged. All along, he had been helping Monica. He had helped to change the situations several times.
In the end, he was the one at fault.
Ye Ling looked at Meng Qi coldly. “Meng Qi, don’t think I’m stupid. Your last bullet was left for Shen Qianshu!”
Meng Qi’s face went pale. He did not admit to it, but neither did he deny it. He looked like a dead dog. A dead dog did not feel cold.
“If you weren’t Luther’s adopted son, I would have shot you dead,” Ye Ling said coldly. “Don’t make me regret.”
He felt really uncomfortable about how possessive Meng Qi was about him. Since they were young, Meng Qi had been strangely possessive towards Ye Ling. This made Ye Ling resent him.
