The 308th operation is nearing its end; the countdown is finally on!
Liu Yan looked at Zheng Liu with a determined expression. She had never been so brave before. Just the thought of being able to stay by Zheng Liu's side, no matter life or death, filled Liu Yan with no regrets.
This is the kind of love she's always wanted: two people who are honest with each other and can face anything together, without pushing each other away for the sake of "it's for your own good." That's true love.
You are not a fish, how can you know the joy of a fish? Your self-righteous understanding may not make the other person happy, but will only push them away!
"Okay, no matter what happens tonight, I will protect you. No matter what happens, we share one life, we'll be together through thick and thin!"
Zheng Liu lowered his head and kissed Liu Yan's lips forcefully. This was the essence of his life's emotions, and the princess he wanted to cherish with all his might.
However, the current situation forced him to deal with the difficulties he faced first, but none of these could stop their desire to be together. Zheng Liu kissed Liu Yan hard, reluctantly leaving her lips, and looked at Liu Yan's flushed face with a simple and honest smile.
"If we can stay safe, give me a few children!"
"Okay, we'll have the wedding after the New Year."
Holding Zheng Liu's hands, Liu Yan said with unusual firmness that the wedding had been delayed for a long time. It was originally scheduled to be held last month, but Zheng Liu had a last-minute mission, so they thought they would hold it after he returned. But then this happened. However, Liu Yan did not complain at all. As long as she could be with Zheng Liu, what did it matter if the wedding was held sooner or later?
Zheng Liu nodded happily, then shielded Liu Yan behind him and calmly observed the surrounding scene.
They didn't have many weapons to begin with, and they didn't know how long they could hold out here, let alone whether Song Jia had shaken off these people and returned to the Gu family to deliver the message.
But none of that matters now. The most important thing is that they must eliminate all the people who are suspicious of them while ensuring the safety of their own people!
What Zheng Liu didn't expect was that Cai Feng actually came in person. He had never had a direct conflict with Cai Feng, but judging from how he had been able to sit firmly as the underground emperor of South Africa for so many years, this person must be a ruthless person.
People who appear unexpectedly always disrupt some of his plans, but that's okay. It's good that they're here; we can deal with them together and prevent them from causing trouble again later.
"Boss, Cai Feng has come in person as well."
Liu Qi had had one or two encounters with Cai Feng before, and instinctively felt no liking for the man. He frowned as he looked at Cai Feng.
"Tell the brothers to turn off their flashlights and keep a close watch until I give the order."
Zheng Liu spoke calmly, and Liu Qi nodded and gestured to everyone who was hiding. Soon, the valley and forest fell into an eerie silence. The cold winter wind howled. Liu Yan looked around at the pitch-black surroundings and instinctively hid behind Zheng Liu. Sensing Liu Yan's unease, Zheng Liu patted her arm, and Liu Yan immediately quieted down.
She believed that Zheng Liu would definitely not let anything happen to her, and that none of them would be in any danger!
If we enter the valley together, we can leave here safely together! With this belief, Liu Yan clung tightly to Zheng Liu's back, no longer making a sound.
"People die for money, birds die for food. Zheng Liu, you wouldn't go against money, would you?" Cai Feng's voice echoed through the valley along with the howling wind. After a moment of silence, seeing no one emerge, he continued, "As the saying goes, 'If a man doesn't look out for himself, heaven and earth will punish him.' Even if you don't think of yourself, shouldn't you think of the brothers who follow you? I heard Mr. Zheng is preparing for a wedding. What, you don't care about the bride's safety? Or does Mr. Zheng want the bride to be a widow before she even gets married?"
Widow my ass! Widow! Your mouth stinks!
Upon hearing Cai Feng's words, Liu Yan mentally cursed him repeatedly, thinking, "Can't you speak properly? Can't you speak properly? If you can't speak properly, then don't open your mouth, lest you annoy people as soon as you open your mouth!"
Zheng Liu wouldn't bear to let her become a widow! The only woman who will become a widow is the one you've been implicated in! It could never be Liu Yan!
"Don't worry, I won't abandon you!"
Zheng Liu turned his head and whispered something in Liu Yan's ear. Liu Yan touched Zheng Liu's face but didn't say anything.
"Zheng Liu, are you really determined to work for Gu Mingxia like this? Speak up, and I guarantee I won't pay less than Gu Mingxia, how about it?"
The footsteps grew closer, and Zheng Liu silently calculated in his mind how long it would take for Cai Feng to arrive. After he had figured everything out, Zheng Liu suddenly spoke.
"Brothers, let's move!"
Upon hearing Zheng Liu's words, the mercenaries who had been hiding in the shadows came out one by one. They were all wearing night vision goggles, which allowed them to clearly see where Cai Feng's men were in the pitch-black night.
Upon hearing Zheng Liu's order, they all came out with guns. After a burst of gunfire, the sound of pursuit echoed through the valley.
"Zheng Liu, do you think only your men wear night vision goggles? Let's see tonight whether your men can wipe us out, or our men can kill you."
Cai Feng waved his hand, and another group of people came from behind him. Zheng Liu immediately understood that the people he had brought earlier were just to test them. These were the people they really needed to deal with. Watching the people running over with orderly steps and carrying heavy weapons, Zheng Liu and all the mercenaries cursed inwardly.
This Cai Feng is too cunning! If they had known he brought so many people, they wouldn't have exposed themselves so early. They could have run as far as they could into the woods in the valley and ensured they wouldn't be found before dawn. Now that they've exposed themselves, it seems they can only wait to die!
"Zheng Liu, look where you're hiding now!"
The valley and the forest are hundreds of meters apart, and there is nowhere to hide within those hundreds of meters. Does this mean that these people are going to die here tonight?
Zheng Liu looked at Liu Qi and the others with a guilty expression. Liu Qi reached out and patted Zheng Liu on the shoulder, smiling as he spoke.
"Boss, don't feel guilty. We chose to be mercenaries, and we expected this day to come! Don't worry, even if we all die tonight, Song Jia will definitely avenge us!"
"We're not afraid of the boss! At worst, we'll just die. Why waste words with them? Let's fight!"
Ren Hui, holding the gun, spoke nonchalantly. Looking at his brothers who had shared life and death with him, Zheng Liu nodded with tears in his eyes.
"Yes, we're not afraid. At worst, we'll be together. We'll live together, and we'll die together! We'll fight tonight!"
