Chapter 52 Wait at home obediently
After returning to the ward, Zhou Yu'an was obviously absent-minded.
He was fiddling with his phone with his left hand, and his expression wasn't very good.
Zhou Fang thought he was frightened and was about to comfort him, but he saw that he was constantly contacting Yu Zhi.
He laughed and teased, "Why are you calling your sister-in-law so late? Be careful or my brother Zhou will get mad at you."
All ten calls were in the out-of-service area state.
Zhou Yu'an looked up, his eyes almost red with anxiety: "Brother, can you contact Brother Yuezhou and ask if Sister Yu Zhi is home?"
Zhou Yu'an's condition was obviously not right, so Zhou Fang didn't ask any more questions and just followed his instructions to contact someone.
Soon, Pei Yuezhou's low voice came from the receiver, with a hint of fatigue: "Is there something wrong?"
"Nothing, I just wanted to ask if your wife is here..." Before Zhou Fang could finish his words, Zhou Yu'an suddenly covered his mouth with his hand.
He didn't dare to struggle, for fear of touching his right hand.
Zhou Yu'an also calmed down at this moment.
"It's okay, my brother dialed the wrong number."
Without waiting for any response from the other end, he immediately hung up the phone, leaving Zhou Fang bewildered: "Ancestor, what on earth are you going to do?"
"Brother, I need to go to the bathroom."
Before Zhou Fang could come to his senses, Zhou Yu'an had already locked himself in.
He dialed a number and said in a low voice: "Hello, I want to place an order..."
On the other side, Pei Yuezhou looked at the turned-off screen with a gloomy expression.
The watch hands have passed eight o'clock.
However, the hall remained empty.
Yu Zhi hasn't come back yet.
The housekeeper was also a little anxious: "Sir, the wife's phone call has not been connected."
For some reason, Pei Yuezhou had a bad premonition. Thinking back to the phone call just now, he suddenly thought of something and his face suddenly became gloomy and ugly.
"Lin Zhi."
There was no need to say anything more, Lin Zhi understood the meaning.
"Don't worry, I'll check it out right away."
**
After a long and fierce battle, Yu Zhi was inevitably injured in order to protect Lu Zhuoyuan.
Yu Zhi's arm, which was still bleeding, deeply irritated Lu Zhuoyuan: "I'm sorry, sister. It's all my fault for being so useless."
"It's just a minor injury, don't worry." Yu Zhi casually tore off a piece of cloth and tied it around her arm to stop the bleeding.
The skillful movements made Lu Zhuoyuan pause.
Whether it was leading him to hide, fighting eight people at once, or remaining calm after being injured, Yu Zhi seemed to be very at ease.
It’s like... having rich combat experience.
Lu Zhuoyuan was shocked by his own thoughts.
How is that possible? His sister Zhi is a real rich lady. She probably has an interest in this area and often participates in activities.
There are still four thugs left, chasing them desperately. It is impossible that they did not realize that they were chasing the wrong people, but they still refused to give in, obviously they were bloodthirsty.
At the critical moment, Yu Zhi pulled Lu Zhuoyuan into an alley. They thought it was a low collapsed wall like other places, which would be convenient for them to climb over at any time. However, after seeing the tall and intact wall, they were forced to stop.
With pursuers right behind them, the atmosphere suddenly became extremely tense.
There was no shelter around, it was completely bare and there wasn't even a stepping stone to be found.
Yu Zhi's arm was still oozing blood, which kept flowing down and even stained her left hand.
The X mark absorbed the blood and emitted an unknown red light, and the ring reappeared.
Yu Zhi didn't pay any attention to it. She raised her injured arm to protect Lu Zhuoyuan behind her, and her other hand tightly grasped the grenade that came with it.
As long as the distance is right, she is confident that she can wipe out the other party in one fell swoop.
But at the critical moment, the other party stopped.
The ring on Yu Zhi's hand, having absorbed enough blood, emitted a red glow in the dark night, and the special pattern of the X was particularly obvious.
Even Lu Zhuoyuan was attracted, with confusion in his eyes.
Strange, Sister Zhi is not wearing a ring today, right?
The villains on the opposite side fixed their eyes on the ring, and after confirming it again and again, their expressions changed drastically.
One of the scarred men lowered his voice and said to his accomplice: "Boss, that woman is..."
Someone from Organization X.
This is trouble, I've hit a hard wall.
The man called "Boss" had a fierce look on his face, his emotions changing with each passing moment. Finally, he took a step forward and said in a rough and unpleasant voice, but loud enough for everyone in the alley to hear: "Sorry, we got the wrong person."
Neither Yu Zhi nor Lu Zhuoyuan expected the other party to do this, but she still did not let her guard down.
They didn't rush to act until the other party's footsteps faded away.
Soon, the sound of an engine was heard, and they got into the only car that could barely drive and drove away in a hurry.
However, they never expected that another hail of bullets would come from the direction they left, along with the sound of a car braking suddenly.
The flare suddenly ignited in the air.
After seeing this, Lu Zhuoyuan and Yu Zhi finally relaxed completely.
It's Heinasen's reinforcements that have arrived.
Lu Zhuoyuan helped Yu Zhi out of the alley, and military medical staff immediately took them into the car.
During the cleaning process, Yu Zhi's mobile phone was also picked up and handed to her.
After turning on the phone, Yu Zhi realized that her phone was almost blown up.
She immediately sent a message to Pei Yuezhou.
【I have something to do tonight, so I will be home late. 】
Almost the next second, Pei Yuezhou called.
His breathing was not steady, probably because he was outside, and his tone was anxious: "Zhizhi, are you okay?"
The medical staff gave Yu Zhi local anesthesia and were removing the bullet from her arm.
This bloody scene was too painful to watch, but Yu Zhi didn't even blink. She smiled and said to Pei Yuezhou, "What can happen to me? Just wash yourself and wait for me at home."
The moonlight shone on his body, and his drooping long eyelashes cast a thin shadow underneath, covering the impulse surging in his eyes.
But he still suppressed it forcefully in the end.
"good."
I'll wait for you at home.
After hanging up the phone, Lin Zhi promptly delivered the iPad.
"There were four vehicles in total. Two of them were abandoned mid-transit, and the eight people in them never showed up again. As for the remaining one, one was seriously injured and escaped from Heinerson's hands. He is currently being apprehended by our men."
"Search for the remaining people with all your strength." His voice sounded no different from usual, but only Lin Zhi, who was close to him, could clearly see the gloom in his eyes.
That was clearly the calm before the storm.
This kind of repressed madness is the most terrifying.
Lin Zhi quickly responded: "Yes."
Pei Yuezhou bent down and got into the nearest car. Feeling the low pressure coming from the back seat, the driver didn't dare to breathe: "Sir, where are we going now?"
He opened his lips slightly: "Go home."
Zhizhi told him to wait obediently at home.
If he hesitated for another second, he was afraid that his sanity would completely collapse.
That was definitely not the situation she wanted to see.
So did he.
