Chapter 9 Nightmare Ling Siyan opened her eyes and looked at the person who had just fallen in her dream...
City A, in front of the Municipal Bureau.
In an off-road vehicle, Lu Xiao looked solemn. He glanced at the time on his watch, looked up at the brothers in the car, and said in a deep voice, "It is 3:55 pm now. In 5 minutes, the control center will send a signal to the Public Security Bureau headquarters. Let me repeat it one last time. The control center will send a signal every 15 minutes. The nearest armed special police force will be here in 5 minutes. You must evacuate here 3 minutes in advance, which means at the latest 4:17. Did you hear me?"
The other fully armed men in the car all had typical American looks. They all responded in unison: "Yes, sir!"
One of them was a handsome man with brown hair and blue eyes, who spoke in fluent Chinese: "Xiao, have you really thought it through? Maybe the situation is not as bad as you think."
The rest of the people also started to persuade.
"Yes! Xiao. I think you underestimate our strength. We are one of the top ten mercenaries in the world."
"Xiao, you have always been confident and strong. You are fearless and forward-looking. Why are you so depressed this time?"
"Yes, Xiao, how do you know it won't work if you don't try?"
Lu Xiao glanced at these people one by one, and curled his lips: "I can't risk my brothers' lives. The military and police of Xia country are brave and fearless. In order to safeguard the dignity of the country, they are not afraid of death. Even if we can really rescue people, we will face their relentless pursuit. Yi'er left genetic information with the police. With him, even if we can leave City A, we can't leave the country. Okay, don't persuade me."
Lu Xiao looked down at his watch, then looked up at the solemn police badge outside the window and said softly, "It's time, let's go!"
Before opening the car door, Lu Xiao turned back and took a deep look at his brothers: "This is a farewell, and we will never meet again. Take care. After leaving Xia Country, don't set foot on this land again."
The brown-haired, blue-eyed man growled, “Follow me.”
"Who are you? What do you do?"
Someone in the police station soon discovered these uninvited guests.
"Stop, you guys..."
Before he could finish his words, the person who spoke was hit in the chest by the gun in Lu Xiao's hand.
"Come here, there's an enemy attack!"
People kept falling down, and people kept pouring out from everywhere.
"Call headquarters, as well as the 312th SWAT Team and the Flying Eagle SWAT Team, and ask them to send support immediately. Hurry!"
"I can't make the call. The signal is blocked."
Gunshots rang out and the air was filled with smoke.
"You bold lunatics, put down your weapons immediately." On the roof of the innermost building, a square-faced man in police uniform shouted to the people below with a loudspeaker: "You used tranquilizer bullets and did not kill anyone, which shows that you do not want to go against the country. I am Deputy Director Chen of the Municipal Bureau. You can tell me what you want. If it is not excessive, I still have the authority to agree to it."
"Deputy Director Chen?" Lu Xiao looked up and sneered, "A hypocritical beast in human clothing."
After he finished speaking, he quickly took out another gun from his waist with his left hand, raised his hand, and pulled the trigger without hesitation.
"Bang!"
A blood flower bloomed on Deputy Director Chen's forehead, and his tall figure fell to the ground with a bang.
"Ah! Deputy Director Chen is dead. This criminal killed Deputy Director Chen."
Lu Xiao ignored the commotion coming from upstairs and quickly rushed into the building.
The people rushing out of the building were no match for this group of people.
When the surroundings quieted down, Lu Xiao turned around and looked at the people behind him: "Okay, I will walk the rest of the way alone. You should retreat."
"Xiao, let's go together!"
Several people had bloodshot eyes and refused to move.
Lu Xiao roared: "Go!"
"It will be too late otherwise, let's go!"
After yelling, the man with bulging veins turned and left, his back determined, to go to an appointment from which there would be no return.
“Bang, bang, bang!”
After several consecutive gunshots, the innermost iron gate of the prison was violently broken open.
The man sitting in the interrogation chair looked up when he heard the voice.
I squinted at the man at the door for a while, and finally remembered who this man was: "It's you!"
Lu Xiao looked at the wooden-faced man in silence. After a while, he spoke in a hoarse voice: "Yier."
Ling Yi's eyelashes trembled and he asked, "Why are you here?"
Lu Xiao tightened his grip on the gun, "I'm sorry, I came too late. I couldn't save your mother, and I can't save you either."
Ling Yi stared at Lu Xiao for a long time, trying to curl the corners of his lips, but failed. He said in an inaudible voice: "It turned out to be you."
Lu Xiao heard it and said in a hoarse voice: "I'm sorry." He paused and added: "I avenged your mother."
Ling Yi was silent for a while, then said "hmm". Then he asked him:
"Why haven't you ever looked for her in all these years?"
"I," Lu Xiao closed his eyes, "am not worthy of her."
Ling Yi's eyes moved slightly, and a hint of sadness flashed in his eyes.
"Listen, people inside, you are surrounded, put down your weapons immediately."
Lu Xiao turned a deaf ear to him, walked up to Ling Yi, put his empty hand on the man's shoulder, looked into Ling Yi's eyes, "Don't be afraid, Yi'er, I will be with you."
Ling Yi had a premonition of something. He looked at the pair of eyes that looked exactly like his own and whispered, "I forgive you."
With the muzzle of the gun against his temple, Ling Yi quietly responded to the gaze of the person in front of him.
A gunshot rang out, blood gushed out of his mouth, and Ling Yi fell into the arms of the person in front of him. The light in his eyes faded rapidly, and his lips moved slightly.
"dad."
Those two silent words made the man holding him burst into tears instantly.
Not long after, the second gunshot rang out.
"Ayi!"
"No! Don't!"
"Lu Xiao, don't."
In the darkness, Lu Xiao suddenly opened his eyes, turned over and turned on the bedside lamp. He turned around and looked at the woman beside him.
Ling Siyan's eyes were closed, her face was full of tear marks, and her pillow was already wet.
Lu Xiao was startled, leaned forward, and gently shook Ling Siyan's shoulder, "Ling Siyan, wake up!"
Ling Siyan opened her eyes and saw the man who had just fallen in a pool of blood in her dream, now looking at her with worry in his eyes.
"Lu Xiao." Ling Siyan said softly: "Can you hold me?"
Lu Xiao didn't hesitate. He reached out and held the person in his arms. He gently stroked the person's back and whispered to comfort him, "Don't be afraid. Dreams are the opposite of reality."
no.
Ling Siyan retorted in her heart.
That was not a dream, it was our tragic past life.
I have never done those things, and how innocent are you and Ling Yi?
Why did we end up like that?
Ling Siyan leaned on Lu Xiao's shoulder, with an uncontrollable hatred surging in her heart.
Holding my own strong and warm body in my arms dispelled the coldness in my heart.
Ling Siyan stretched out her arms and wrapped them around the strong waist in front of her. "I can't sleep now. Can you chat with me?"
When Lu Xiao was touched in a sensitive area, his body froze and he didn't say anything for a long time.
"Lu Xiao?"
"Yeah!" Lu Xiao came back to his senses, "What do you want to talk about?"
Ling Siyan was stunned for a moment, not knowing where to start.
It was Lu Xiao who spoke first: "I feel like you've been worried since this afternoon. Can you tell me what you're worried about?"
Ling Siyan was silent for a moment. She didn't expect Lu Xiao to be so perceptive.
But whether it was rebirth or the world they lived in was derived from a novel, this thing was too bizarre, and she was not sure whether Lu Xiao would believe it.
"Are you worried that Chengyu won't accept your remarriage?" Lu Xiao guessed.
Ling Siyan let go of Lu Xiao, pushed him away slightly, and looked into Lu Xiao's eyes: "There are some things I can't tell you now. Wait a little longer. When the time is right, I will tell you everything."
Lu Xiao nodded: "Okay, I'll wait for the day you're willing to tell me."
"As for Cheng Yu," Ling Siyan sneered, "his sweetheart won't tolerate me saying anything bad about him. As a son, do you think he would interfere with me finding a stepfather for him?"
"So," Lu Xiao lowered his eyelashes, "you are doing this for..."
"Why?" Ling Siyan stretched out her index finger and lifted Lu Xiao's chin slightly. "Just say whatever you want to say. Don't keep it in your heart. Effective communication can reduce a lot of unnecessary misunderstandings."
The woman in front of him had beautiful features, and her sharp phoenix eyes were now bright and soft, less aggressive and more encouraging.
"You married me to force Chengyu to compromise, right?"
Ling Siyan raised her eyebrows. "Am I so casual in your eyes? Can you treat marriage as a joke?"
Lu Xiao shook his head: "I never thought about you that way. I was just too worried about gains and losses."
Ling Siyan was silent for a moment, then jokingly suggested, "Then you should hide your two red books."
Lu Xiao nodded seriously: "I will."
Ling Siyan laughed, then said seriously: "Besides, you underestimate my son too much. If I want him to find someone else to love, let alone find him a stepfather, even if I ask him to not have me as his mother, he will not hesitate at all.
Lu Xiao thought for a moment and comforted him, "Chengyu is only 17 years old, and this is the first time he likes someone. For a child of this age, even if the love is as far away as mountains and seas, mountains and seas can be leveled. If you blindly stop him forcefully, I'm afraid he will become more rebellious. Aren't they only in the third year of high school now? It's too early for them to get married. Take your time, and over time, he will eventually listen to you subtly."
You are wrong. Ling Siyan thought to herself that she had thought the same in her previous life.
Han Chengyu and Su Ranran are a pair of male and female protagonists that are tied together by God and cannot be separated.
However, this is definitely not something that can be said now.
"What about you?" Ling Siyan stroked Lu Xiao's jaw with her hand, "Love can be leveled even if it means mountains and seas. Then why didn't you try it back then and chose to give up?"
"Because, people with such courage will be pampered in the first half of their lives and get whatever they want, so they will definitely get what they want at all costs. Cheng Yu is," Lu Xiao looked at Ling Siyan deeply, "and so are you."
"And I," Lu Xiao's eyes flashed with sadness, "I don't dare to hope to be shoulder to shoulder with Mingyue. I'm also afraid, afraid of losing it after I have it."
Ling Siyan was silent for a moment, stood up slightly, and pressed a light kiss on the corner of Lu Xiao's mouth with her red lips.
"Lu Xiao, you're very good. And," Ling Siyan sighed softly, "there is one thing you are wrong about."
"I," Ling Siyan looked into Lu Xiao's eyes and said seriously, "I have never loved Han Jisheng. Only you," Ling Siyan bit Lu Xiao's lips gently, "are the regrets I had when I was young."
Lu Xiao's Adam's apple moved slightly. He reached out and grabbed the back of Ling Siyan's head, then slowly lowered his head.
"Wait." Ling Siyan put her index finger on Lu Xiao's lips and opened her red lips slightly: "There is one thing I need to explain to you."
"you say."
"I hope you don't treat Han Chengyu as your son. He has inherited Han Jisheng's coldness and won't remember your kindness."
"But he is also your son." Lu Xiao said faintly, "We are already married."
"Don't blame your own mother for a woman you've only known for a few months." Ling Siyan said calmly, "You only need to be a good father to Ling Yi."
"I understand. I'll listen to you."
