"No, listen to me. They still need my family's financial support. They won't dare to do anything to me. This is an opportunity you've been waiting for. If you don't leave now, they'll become wary, and you'll never be able to leave in your life. Think of your husband and your daughter whom you haven't seen for many years."

Seeing lights in the distance, the man pushed the woman hard, got into the car, and drove away immediately.

The woman, lying on the ground, looked up and suddenly saw two young men. She raised her gun and was about to fire at them when Li Si touched his lower back as the woman was getting down.

Then the woman raised the gun in her hand and anxiously said, "Don't fire the gun, are you Chinese?" The woman was excited to hear her long-lost mother tongue, but she did not let her guard down. She slowly backed away with the gun in her hand.

"Don't move. I don't care why you happen to be here. Since you're both Chinese, just pretend you've never seen me," the woman whispered.

The lights in the distance rushed towards them. The woman crouched down. Not far away, several cars screeched to a halt beside Gu Yanci and his companion's car parked on the side of the road. The headlights shone on the cars, revealing everything inside. The man in the lead car, holding a gun, reached out and touched the engine, speaking in Italian, "They shouldn't have gone far, but isn't this Rossi's car?" The man pondered for a few seconds and then said to the two men with him, "You two look around. Don't overlook any suspicious places. We're keeping chasing them. If we don't catch them, we won't get away with this."

After saying that, he got into the car and let his companion drive away. Two other cars followed him away.

"Pah, damn it, this Chinese woman is usually so obedient, how come something happened to her today while we were on duty? And Rossi just had to drag us into this mess." "That Rossi, he keeps coming to chat with this woman, we thought he liked her, so we let them be, but we didn't expect he likes her so much that he wants to take her away." "Alright, stop complaining and hurry up and look around." The two men complained to each other.

Gu Yanci could hear the woman's low, rapid breathing, and even her heartbeat, even from beside her.

In the dim light, the woman turned to look at Gu Yanci and Li Si, her pleading gaze impossible to ignore.

Perhaps it was because they were both Chinese, or perhaps it was the woman's act of risking her life to return to China that moved Gu Yanci. From the moment he saw the woman, Gu Yanci knew that she was not in danger, and a voice in his heart kept telling him: help her.

Gu Yanci made a few gestures to Li Si that the woman couldn't understand. He then turned and made two gestures to the woman in the moonlight, but she seemed to understand them. She lowered her body, trying to make herself less noticeable, and covered her mouth with the hand that wasn't holding the gun, nodding gently.

Gu Yanci and Li Si drew their daggers and waited for the two men to slowly approach. The moment the two men jumped down, Gu Yanci and Li Si grabbed their daggers and pounced on them. The two men who fell down were unconscious before they could even see who had knocked them down.

"These two are too fragile. I haven't even had a chance to show my skills yet." Li Si looked at the two unconscious people and was speechless.

The woman turned to look at the two fallen men, took a closer look to make sure they posed no threat, and then slumped to the ground, panting heavily.

Gu Yanci and Li Si looked at the woman sitting on the ground, but neither of them had any intention of helping her up.

The woman, struggling to catch her breath, staggered to her feet and thanked Gu Yanci and Li Si, "Thank you both for saving my life. You should leave here quickly; it's not safe here. There's a secret Italian nuclear research base not far from here. If they see a stranger, they'd rather kill the innocent than let the guilty go free."

Gu Yanci and Li Si exchanged a glance. They didn't have time to think too deeply about whether the ambush of Amu and the others in this area was related to this base.
