Chapter 944 Literary Youth of the Republic of China 19



There are more and more people.

Hu Lai's face looked extremely grim.

He hadn't expected that Commander Ning would dare to jump down from the building and attack him directly.

If Gu Qingxiu were still in his hands, he would be hesitant to act against her and wouldn't dare treat her like this.

Since we can't talk things out properly.

Hu Lai pulled out his gun, grabbed Zhang Wenwen, and aimed it directly at her head.

"Hu Lai".

Zhang Ke'er took a step forward and gritted her teeth as she spoke.

"Zhang Ke'er, don't do anything rash. You know I'm easily frightened. If I accidentally pull the trigger—" Hu Lai endured the pain and sneered, "I didn't want to go this far either, but who told you to be so ungrateful?"

“Lieutenant Hu, what you’re doing is making enemies for Zhou Xuan. Put down your gun and let’s have a proper talk.”

Why are there so many unreliable people around Zhou Xuan?

Didn't we agree to have a proper talk? How are we supposed to talk like this?

Bai Chen had a vague feeling that something was wrong.

She felt that Zhou Xuan might have lied to her.

There might have been other hidden reasons behind their divorce, at least not as casually described by Zhou Xuan.

But what can she do now?

"Negotiation? Do you think we can even negotiate in our current state?"

Bai Chen's feelings became even more complicated.

She really wanted to say that when you're on someone else's turf, you should at least be more restrained. Isn't this just making things worse?

But now she understands that this adjutant doesn't think much of her at all.

He was pretending the whole way to her.

"you--"

Zhang Ke'er's eyes turned red with hatred.

"You bastard—"

Why is his sister so unlucky to meet someone like Zhou Xuan, and most importantly, to have an adjutant like Hu Lai by her side?

"How about it? Zhang Ke'er, why don't you come with me too?"

Hu Lai's purpose in coming here was Zhang Ke'er. Both Zhou Xuan and he were well aware of this, and they knew that the grudges between them and Zhang Ke'er could not be easily put aside.

Now that Zhang Ke'er has Commander Ning's backing, once the Ning family has sorted everything out, they'll probably have time to deal with the Zhou family. The Zhou family's influence in the south is no longer what it used to be.

If the Ning family really wants to deal with him, the Zhou family will be powerless to resist.

That's why they got the idea.

We need to deal with Zhang Ke'er first.

“Fine, I’ll go with you, but you have to let my sister go.” Zhang Ke’er took another step forward.

As soon as he moved, Hu Lai took two steps back.

Zhang Wenwen was also dragged along.

Zhang Wenwen whimpered in pain, looking reluctantly at Zhang Ke'er, then at Fang Shan standing to the side. Fang Shan's fists were clenched tightly, his face full of worry.

He wanted to just rush over there, but he didn't dare to make any rash moves.

Wooden guns are prone to catching fire.

If someone were to pull the trigger carelessly, he would regret it for the rest of his life.

"Okay, come here first."

Hearing that Zhang Ke'er had agreed to his request, Hu Lai breathed a sigh of relief. The gun was moved slightly, and the next moment—bang bang bang—

Three loud gunshots rang out.

"Ahhhh—"

Hu Lai cried out in pain, clutching his wrist, which had been hit by three gunshots.

The gun in her hand fell to the ground due to the sudden, intense pain. Zhang Ke'er picked it up with lightning speed and pointed it at Hu Lai.

Hu Lai was in excruciating pain; Miki had hit the same spot, and his hand was likely ruined.

Startled by the sound of gunfire, Bai Chen instinctively covered his ears and took several steps back.

Fang Shan rushed over and pulled Zhang Wenwen into his arms.

"Wenwen, are you alright?" He carefully removed the handkerchief from Zhang Wenwen's mouth, his eyes filled with pity and lingering fear.

"I'm fine."

Having gone through this ordeal, Zhang Wenwen felt like she had been reborn, and she became more dependent on Fang Shan. Human life is just too fragile.

It's incredibly foolish to push away someone who truly cares about you for some inexplicable reason.

She didn't want to resist anymore.

Life is short, so we should treat ourselves well.

Zhang Wenwen reached out and took Fang Shan's hand, giving him a chance, and also giving herself a chance—

Amid Fang Shan's ecstatic joy, the sound of gunfire rang out again.

Bang--

Zhang Ke'er fired another shot at the wailing Hu Lai, saying, "I won't kill you. Go back and tell Zhou Xuan to wait. I will never let him get away with this—"

Ignoring the look of utter shock on Hu Lai's face, Zhang Ke'er ordered everyone from the Zhou family to be driven out of Shanghai, including Bai Chen.

Bai Chen wanted to say a few words to Ning Zhen. Back then, Ning Zhen liked her so much, and she thought that as long as she pleaded for her, Ning Zhen would definitely give her face.

But as soon as she took a step forward, she met Ning Hongze's fierce gaze, and her steps faltered instantly.

That look in your eyes is terrifying.

She felt that if she dared to speak up, this person might kill her. Thinking of his merciless attack on Miki, Bai Chen couldn't help but shudder.

She shrank back, afraid to make another sound. She hoped Ning Zhen would remember her, but from beginning to end, Ning Zhen's eyes were fixed on his wife beside him—

He didn't even glance over—

Hu Lai was sent back to the Zhou family. His hand was crippled, his legs were weak, and he looked rather gloomy.

The Zhou family is in dire need of talent right now, and with Hu Lai out of the picture, he can no longer hold the position of adjutant.
