Chapter 229: Almost Died in a Fire



With a "splash", a bucket of ice water was poured on Lu Zhaoning.

"Which bastard splashed me?"

Lu Zhaoning shuddered, slowly opened his eyes, and met a terrifying face.

"Girl, you never thought we'd meet again, did you?"

The man with slicked back hair threw the spear to the ground and said viciously to Lu Zhaoning.

Lu Zhaoning narrowed his eyes and looked at the surrounding environment. It looked like an abandoned old warehouse. There were seven or eight people guarding here.

Gu Jingye, who was originally thought to be at the end of his rope and furious, was actually sitting on a chair, looking at her leisurely.

Such calmness is like the tranquility before a storm.

"Miss Lu doesn't seem surprised at all to see me?"

Gu Jingye thought he could see fear on Lu Zhaoning's face, but she was so calm.

Lu Zhaoning snorted and said nothing.

Her scalp hurt and someone pulled her hair back forcefully. She gave the other person a look of contempt.

The man with the slicked-back hair pinched Lu Zhaoning's chin without mercy, and said fiercely: "Stinky woman, you almost took my life last time. Today I must teach you a lesson."

"Bah!"

Lu Zhaoning knew that he was in great danger today, but Gu Jingye couldn't escape either.

There is a positioning system installed in her earrings.

This was something Zhong Wen gave her when I met her privately last time, just in case. I didn't expect it to come in handy.

"Miss Lu, this is really beyond my expectations. I never thought that for the first time in my life, Gu Jingye would think about getting married, but in the end, it would fall into your hands."

Gu Jingye looked down at Lu Zhaoning, whose hands were tied behind his back.

I thought I would see fear and panic on Lu Zhaoning's face, but her face only showed calmness.

Like there's nothing to be afraid of.

Terribly calm.

This feeling of being out of control made him feel very uncomfortable.

He raised his hand and pinched Lu Zhaoning's chin.

"When did you start plotting against me?"

"From the beginning."

At this point, Lu Zhaoning has nothing to hide.

"Why?"

Gu Jingye asked with a smile.

"You really want to know?"

"Our boss told you to speak, so just speak now. Are you dying by dawdling?"

The man with slicked back hair slapped Lu Zhaoning mercilessly.

Lu Zhaoning could smell the rust in his mouth as he took revenge for personal gain.

Since she came back, she has been slapping others, and this is the first time she has been slapped by someone. This feeling is really... not good.

"Miss Lu, you don't seem afraid at all?"

"Why should I be afraid?"

Lu Zhaoning asked back with a smile.

She really wasn't anything to be afraid of.

In her previous life, she had experienced so much inhuman torture, one of her eyes was blinded, her legs were broken, and she died in such a miserable and disgusting way.

She would rather give up the person who truly loves her and return to this time and space.

She just wants revenge!

As long as she can get rid of all her enemies, she has nothing to fear!

"If I had met you earlier, I might have fallen in love with you."

Gu Jingye knew from a young age that he should not have too deep an interest in anything, otherwise it would be the beginning of his downfall.

There are many women around him, but he is only somewhat sincere to Lu Yushan.

But he never thought of marrying Lu Yushan.

Lu Yushan is like a flower carefully nurtured in a greenhouse. He can raise her for a lifetime, but with such a personality, she is destined to not be able to stand shoulder to shoulder with him.

Lu Zhaoning is different.

She is like a rose with thorns, not only thoughtful but also brave and resourceful.

It’s a pity that they are not the same kind of people.

"Don't tarnish the name of love."

Lu Zhaoning looked disgusted.

Not to mention that Gu Jingye is her enemy, even if he is not her enemy, how can a man who has anything to do with Lu Yushan be a good person?

Someone walked in and whispered something to Gu Jingye.

Gu Jingye had a gloomy face and ordered everyone to be ready to evacuate at any time.

"Lu Zhaoning, I really underestimated you. You were able to pass on the location information even in this state.

You are the first woman I admire, but a woman who is too powerful is destined to not live long.

I have never tolerated any grain of sand in my eyes. How about I send you on your way now?"

Lu Zhaoning silently replied "you are sick".

Gu Jingye smiled. He had a rather feminine appearance, but this smile was indescribably charming and cruel.

"I never take women seriously. In my eyes, women are either something I like or something I don't like.

I didn't expect that the daughter that the Lu family just found had such great abilities.

You are so nice!

I originally wanted to keep you here to play with you, but since you don't want to live anymore, I'll grant your wish."

As he spoke, Gu Jingye glanced at the man with the slicked-back hair.

The man with the slicked-back hair was also a vengeful person. He sneered at Lu Zhaoning and poured the oil that he had prepared long ago around the warehouse.

Gu Jingye leaned over to look at Lu Zhaoning and whispered in her ear: "If you beg for mercy, I might be willing to relent and take you with me."

Take her away, and then humiliate her severely to avenge the plot against him.

Gu Jingye couldn't swallow this.

… … …

Lu Zhaoning was awakened by the thick smoke.

Gu Jingye, this idiot, knocked her unconscious before leaving. It was obvious that he wanted to leave no trace of her.

But Gu Jingye couldn't escape either. If she really escaped, she would look down on Zhong Wen and her colleagues.

Lu Zhaoning is not afraid of death.

She just watched the fire spread, and the thick smoke made her tears and snot come out. There was really no beauty in it.

He had died so miserably in his previous life, and he was going to die so miserably in this life as well. This made Lu Zhaoning very unhappy.

The flames had already caused blisters on his body, and Lu Zhaoning's face was also burning, and he felt uncomfortable from the smoke.

She hadn't even seen how miserable Lu Yushan was, and she felt a little unwilling to accept that she died just like that.

Her wrist hurt badly, and the rope that tied her up was broken by the fire.

However, Lu Zhaoning also smelled the smell of burnt hair.

He endured the pain and broke free from the rope, trying to get up, but found himself dizzy and his consciousness was becoming blurred.

no!

She can't die here!

"Lu Zhaoning..."

"Miss Lu, can you hear me?"

Outside, there were the sounds of Ula's sirens and Zhong Wen's shouts.

Lu Zhaoning's throat was so sore from the smoke that he couldn't make any sound. He could only roll on the ground and move towards the warehouse door.

Every time I rolled, my body felt a burning pain.

If she hadn't been disfigured by the sulfuric acid, she would have been disfigured in the fire.

"careful!"

Zhong Wen rushed in with his men, and sprayed the ground with water from their water guns. Lu Zhaoning felt an indescribable comfort all over his body, as if a long drought had finally ended with a downpour.

"Miss Lu, can you still hold on?"

Zhong Wen's voice seemed to come from the distant horizon.

Lu Zhaoning regained consciousness for a moment, opened his mouth, but his throat was dry and he couldn't say a word.

Feeling someone holding her up, with the blaring of sirens in her ears, Lu Zhaoning closed her eyes in peace...
