Ling Chen was a bit helpless. It was his first eting with this woman, so how could he know the reason for her hostility? Moreover, Ling Chen was quite sure that a woman with such extraordinary temperant and stunning appearance would definitely leave a deep impression at a glance. Thus, he was 100% certain that he had never seen her before and could not possibly have any enmity with her.
"To be honest, I really don't know what you're talking about, nor do I understand why you want to deal with . My purpose for coming this ti is simple, to find the whereabouts of Yang Yan and his wife. I heard from Qi Houzhao that you instructed him to capture , and even wanted to take the lives of and my girlfriend. I can't understand, as I don't even know you, why do you want to kill ? Also, I would like to ask you, do you know Yang Yan and his wife?"
"Whether I know them or not is none of your business," the woman replied coldly. After speaking, the woman seed to think of sothing, her eyes filled with doubt as she looked at Ling Chen, asking, "Could it be that you really don't know who I am?"
Ling Chen spread his hands and said, "I've stressed it several tis, I really don't know you. Why don't you tell who you are?"
"I..." The woman was about to say sothing but quickly caught herself and said coldly, "Since you don't know who I am, then there's no need for you to know. A dead man doesn't need to know so much."
With that, the woman raised the gun in her hand and aid it at Ling Chen's body.
"You want to kill ?" Ling Chen squinted his eyes, frowning as he looked at the woman. While speaking, his whole body tensed up, all his muscles mobilized.
"You shouldn't have co to look for Yang Yan and his wife. They sent you here just to make you deliver yourself to death."
Them?
Hearing the woman ntion 'them,' Ling Chen couldn't help but feel curious, unsure of who 'they' referred to.
However, before Ling Chen could ask, a 'bang' rang out, a gunshot was fired, and the bullet hit Ling Chen's body directly.
In an instant, blood gushed from Ling Chen's chest, quickly soaking his clothes red.
Seeing this scene, Ji Beizhao's eyes imdiately turned red with urgency, about to yell in anger. However, before he could speak, the woman kicked Ji Beizhao to the ground, then aid the gun at his body.
Looking at the dark gun barrel, Ji Beizhao couldn't help swallowing, his face turning pale.
He never expected this woman's heart to be so ruthless, killing without the slightest hesitation.
Woo-woo-woo-woo!
Just as the woman was about to shoot, a piercing police siren suddenly ca from the side of the road. Soon after, several police cars rushed into the open parking lot, speeding towards them.
Seeing the police cars approach, the woman frowned slightly, imdiately put away the gun in her hand, and quickly ran out of the parking lot.
Watching her retreating figure, Ji Beizhao exhaled heavily, wiping the cold sweat from his forehead.
There was no ti to rest at this mont. Ji Beizhao hurriedly got up from the ground, picked up Ling Chen's body, and ran outside. If the police caught him, he would definitely be locked up.
Escaping from the parking lot, Ji Beizhao took Ling Chen back to the car. Seeing Ling Chen, still bleeding profusely and face pale, Ji Beizhao couldn't help but sigh.
This is bad!
When he goes back, how will he explain to his cousin? Just thinking about it made Ji Beizhao feel an imnse headache.
While pondering, a sudden fit of violent coughing ca from inside the car. Imdiately after, Ling Chen sprang up from the back seat, gasping for large breaths of air.
Seeing Ling Chen co back to life, Ji Beizhao was imdiately dumbfounded, his gaze blank and incredulous.
This... how is this possible! He saw with his own eyes Ling Chen falling to the ground from a gunshot, his breathing even stopped. A clearly dead person was now alive again.
After a mont of shock, Ji Beizhao finally snapped back to reality, speaking with lingering fear, "I thought you were dead."
"Almost died," Ling Chen said weakly, holding the bleeding wound on his chest. "If you don't get back soon, I really will die."
Hearing this, Ji Beizhao chuckled awkwardly and hurriedly drove back ho.
Returning to their place, seeing Ji Beizhao helping a blood-soaked Ling Chen inside, Nanrong Wanqing was shocked and rushed over, asking with concern, "Ling Chen, how are you? Are you okay?"
Before Ling Chen could reply, Ji Beizhao already spoke, "With so much blood lost, how can he be okay? Co help get him to the sofa."
Nanrong Wanqing didn't dare to neglect, imdiately supporting Ling Chen's arm and moving him to the living room sofa.
At this ti, Nanrong Zhengqing ca out from the house with a first-aid kit. As an assassin, removing bullets was a simple task.
Tearing open the bloody shirt, Nanrong Zhengqing examined the wound on Ling Chen's chest, then took a sterilized scalpel from the first-aid kit, making a slight incision at each end of the wound. Subsequently, he took out a pair of small tweezers, inserting it into the wound to locate the bullet.
Ling Chen bit his teeth tightly, enduring the pain in his chest as he watched Nanrong Zhengqing extract the bullet from his wound.
After stopping the bleeding, Nanrong Zhengqing dressed the wound and, while packing up the tools, asked, "You're quite lucky; if that bullet had gone in just half a centiter more, you might not have survived."
Hearing this, Ling Chen grinned slightly. However, there wasn't a trace of relief in his eyes. Because he knew best that surviving this ti had little to do with luck and was entirely due to his own skills.
When the gun was pointed at him, he used the Hua Realm within his body to forcibly tense his muscles, increasing their density. As a result, the muscles' defensive power was greatly enhanced. Even if hit by a bullet, the reinforced muscles could withstand the bullet's impact, preventing it from reaching vital organs or critical areas.
However, this approach was extrely exhausting physically and ntally. At this mont, Ling Chen felt completely drained, unable even to sit up.
"Damn, that woman is really ruthless, killing faster than we assassins," Ji Beizhao said unwillingly, "Unfortunately, she got away this ti."
"That woman is no simple character," Ling Chen said.
Initially, Ling Chen only thought the woman's shooting was precise, but he didn't expect her skills to be so formidable as well. Even Ji Beizhao, trained rigorously by the Snake King, fell victim as the woman easily took his gun.
To have such speed and reflexes, that woman surely is an adept martial artist.
Sigh!
Headache.
Ling Chen touched his forehead, smiling bitterly to himself. Just who is this woman? From her words, it's clear she has a deep connection with Yang Yan and his wife.
However, what intrigued Ling Chen the most were the 'they' referred to by the woman. If he wasn't mistaken, the woman must have thought he was an underling sent by her enemies.
