Ling Tianya finally relaxed when she saw Du Gang and Zhang Ke.
On the ground, except for the person who was hit in the head by Ling Tianya, the others were all conscious. Their bodies were severely damaged and looked so distorted that they were probably paralyzed.
One could tell that if Ruan Zeyan wanted to take their lives, they would have been cold bodies by then. Ruan Zeyan kept them alive on purpose.
Ruan Zeyan’s face was as pale as paper from blood loss, and his body was becoming weak. He smiled and held Ling Tianya’s hand. “Scared?”
Ling Tianya nodded, not trying to deny it. She was really scared, she had only seen such things in gangster movies. Even in her own work she never wrote things like that, because she always felt that it was unrealistic, not possible in real life.
The day’s event had taught her a lesson. That was: life was often more exciting than novels and movies.
She looked at Ruan Zeyan, from the moment of the first gun shot, the man had been calm and composed with no trace of panic. The moves he used when he fought could be described as a steady, accurate, and merciless. Apparently, he had gone through a lot of combat training. In the past, Ling Tianya had always thought that the perfect muscle of on Ruan Zeyan’s body were from working out. It seemed that they must be the result of combat training.
“Aren’t you afraid?” Ling Tianya asked.
Ruan Zeyan said, “I am used to it.”
Used to it, that was to say, it was not the first time that the situation had happened!
Ling Tianya didn’t have time to be shocked. Ruan Zeyan had lost too much blood and his body was collapsing. Du Gang ran over and held him.
Ruan Zeyan looked at the four killers on the ground and said in a cold voice, “I will let you handle this.”
“Yes.” After many years of following Ruan Zeyan, Du Gang had long been used to dealing with such things.
Zhang Ke grasped Ling Tianya’s shoulders, looking unprecedentedly serious, and examined her from top to bottom. “Have you been injured? Have you?!”
Zhang Ke had always talked to Ling Tianya in a soft and agreeable tone, but she sounded anxious and stern, searching every inch of Ling Tianya’s body with a serious look on her face.
Ling Tianya was distracted, her mind was still on Ruan Zeyan. She mechanically shook her head at Zhang Ke and her eyes never left Ruan Zeyan.
Tending to the injury on Ruan Zeyan could no longer be delayed, and he needed medical attention immediately. They were in the middle of the woods and the car couldn’t reach there at all. Du Gang called a helicopter, hovering in the sky, and soon Ruan Zeyan was lifted up and taken to the nearest hospital.
In the operating room, Ruan Zeyan had multiple surgeries. In addition to the wound on his abdomen, he withstood two gunshots in his back. Although he lost a lot of blood, it was not fatal.
Ling Tianya knew that the two shots Ruan Zeyan took were to protect her. If she was not there, it would have been easy for Ruan Zeyan to escape the two shots given his abilities. Maybe, just because she was there, those people knew that Ruan Zeyan would be constrained to protect her. That was why they chose to attack him at that time.
After that incident, Ling Tianya came to the realization that she did not know many things about Ruan Zeyan.
Out of the operating room, Ruan Zeyan hadn’t woken up. In order for him to get better care and treatment, he was transferred to a hospital owned by the Ruan Family, where there were the world’s best medical equipment and professionals.
The incident couldn’t be hidden from his family members. When Ruan Qishan and Wang Yazhi arrived, Ling Tianya was the only person accompanying Ruan Zeyan in the ward.
When she saw her son in the hospital bed, Wang Yazhi immediately broke down. “Zeyan! How could this happen? Wasn’t he going on a business trip overseas? Why was he with you?” Wang Yazhi questioned Ling Tianya with tears running down her face uncontrollably.
