Chapter 84 The Bald Man's Survival in the Brink
Abroad, the bald man stared in horror at the man who opened the door.
His body reacted faster than his mind; a gunshot rang out.
The bullet flew towards the man's heart.
When the man who opened the door realized there were people inside, he started to dodge.
But how can a human be faster than a bullet?
The bullet missed its target and did not hit the heart.
It still hit; blood gushed from the bullet hole.
The man reached out to try and stop the bleeding, but blood oozed from between his fingers.
It's like a dam that's been breached; the floodwaters have already rushed out and can't be contained at all.
He collapsed quickly, shouting incessantly.
"In...in here, here..."
He felt he was shouting very loudly, using all his strength.
Actually, the sound he made wasn't loud at all.
The others quickly looked in that direction and gathered around.
Gunshots replaced shouts, letting the pursuers know that the bald man was there.
The bald man jumped out of the car and pulled the gun out of the fallen man's body.
They hid behind the car and lay down under it.
The bullet grazed the spot where he had just been standing, hit the car, and sparked a few flecks.
The bald man was out of options; he was injured and didn't have many bullets left.
There were still menacing assassins all around.
He glanced at the car to the side, a fierce glint in his eyes.
Damn! I guess I have no choice but to give it a shot.
He fired a shot into the fuel tank of the car next to him, then fired a shot into the fuel tank of the car he had just been hiding in.
The sporadic gunshots were barely noticeable amidst the chorus of gunfire.
Those people used firepower to suppress the bald man, preventing him from raising his head.
They gradually narrowed the encirclement, intending to take down the bald man.
The oil piled up on the ground, quickly forming a large patch at the bald man's feet.
The bald man saw the man who had just opened the door staring at his actions in shock.
He struggled to warn his companion.
The bald man walked over and spat.
"Pah! I'll give you a ride first."
The bald man shot him in the head, and before he could say anything, he fell down and never got up again.
The bald man listened as the encirclement around him grew smaller and smaller.
He gritted his teeth and cursed the national essence.
"Young master, I'll haunt you again in my next life, don't even think about escaping."
The bald man's bullet grazed the oil-soaked ground, sparks flew, and flames suddenly burst into flames.
As the flames spread rapidly, the two cars next to him were engulfed in flames.
The bald man stood in the middle of the flames, with a human corpse at his feet.
Flames surrounded him.
Red fire, black shadows.
He was like a demon fallen into hell, facing judgment in flames.
Some of the pursuers were engulfed in flames, struggling and screaming desperately.
Some scrambled away from the scorching flames, their eyes filled with terror.
"Fire!"
"Quickly, put out the fire!"
"Fire!"
The pursuers, unwilling to give up, raised their guns and aimed them at the bald man.
Shouts and hurried footsteps could be heard outside.
The fire attracted many people, and they had already lost their initial advantage.
The pursuers were filled with hatred, but had no choice but to quickly leave through other passages.
The bald man breathed a slight sigh of relief when he saw that the person had left.
But looking at the flames that tightly surrounded him, the bald man regretted it.
He should have left himself an escape route instead of ending up dead.
Now, even if he wants to live, God won't allow it.
domestic.
Zhou Ran walked on the first floor, looking at the familiar yet unfamiliar furnishings, her mind wandering.
After a long while, he came to his senses and waved his hand.
Qiu Jing walked up.
"What are your orders, boss?"
"There are so many familiar things in this room..."
"Oh, I understand, boss. I'll make sure this room is well protected."
Zhou Ran glared at the subordinate who was making up his own thoughts.
"Watch less romance dramas. I don't want to see anyone ruin this place."
Qiu Jing looked at Zhou Ran in surprise.
"Are you sure? It's all destroyed?"
"It's all ruined. Don't leave even a scrap. It's annoying to look at."
Those memories are in my mind and in my heart.
The one thing you must never do is fall into someone else's trap.
These things were merely meant to disturb his mind and reason.
These people want to use this to scheme against themselves.
It's like a dream.
Absolutely impossible.
How could he lose his composure because of this one memory?
"Boss, the laws in China are sound. If you set fire to a house, you'll be locked up for life!"
Zhou Ran resisted the urge to roll her eyes.
"When did I give you permission to set fire?"
"So you said you'd destroy all of these things, leaving not a trace."
Qiu Jing mimicked Zhou Ran's cool and arrogant tone.
"You learned it very well, don't learn it again next time."
Zhou Ran rolled her eyes. Sure enough, she couldn't help herself to this.
"I'm telling you to find a construction team to tear down all the interior decorations and turn it into a bare shell."
"Oh, I know. Hehe, sorry boss, the method was too normal. I misunderstood."
Qiu Jing touched her head shyly.
The methods are too formal; they don't suit their style.
"Isn't it normal to use these methods? What kind of organization do you think we are?"
"Aren't we the Black Society?"
Qiu Jing asked cautiously and tentatively.
"We are a legitimate security company. What do we have to do with the underworld?"
Zhou Ran reminded Qiu Jing that her words were too offensive and made them sound like gangsters.
"Oh, okay, I'll be careful."
Qiu Jing, a working-class woman, nodded quickly, indicating that she would change.
"Okay, good to know. Let's go! I have some free time today, so let's go to the next place."
"Yes, I'll drive."
Qiu Jing jogged to open the door, then quickly climbed in from the passenger side, sat in the driver's seat, and fastened her seatbelt.
Zhou Ran silently turned her head away.
He doesn't watch the heart-stopping actions of his subordinates.
Have you ever seen a car so dark that people climb into the passenger seat to drive it?
Qiu Jing stepped on the gas, and the car sped off.
Xia's office.
Xia Chenggan lowered his head to process the documents.
Xia Chengan and Xia Chengping were playing video games on the sofa.
"Wait for me!"
"What are you doing? Are you blind too? Are you blind as well as the other side?"
"What the hell are you? Why are you hitting me?"
"Are you sure you can handle it?!"
"Are you even capable?"
The two of them, each with a cell phone, were almost coming to blows.
Xia Chenggan endured it all, but he could no longer bear it.
"You two, go have fun outside. Don't disturb my work here."
Xia Chengping immediately sat up straight. "Brother, we came to keep you company. We were worried about you!"
Xia Chenggan retorted, "You're so worried about me that you're playing video games? Go out and play."
Xia Chengan quickly pulled Xia Chengping back.
She smiled and said, "We'll finish in the lounge, brother. You can continue; we won't disturb you."
Xia Cheng'an pulled Xia Chengping into the lounge inside and continued playing games.
However, this time he was even less focused than before, constantly listening to the sounds outside.
They left after seeing the two eyesores.
Xia Chenggan quickly dealt with the things in his hands.
I'll take the two little ones home later.
"President Xia."
The assistant came in from outside to report the outcome of the matter.
Xia Chenggan glanced at the lounge and gestured for him to come closer and speak softly so that the two men wouldn't hear.
The assistant finished reporting the matter in a low voice.
Xia Chenggan nodded. He waved for the others to leave.
After looking at the documents in my hand, I decided to deal with the rest tomorrow.
Anyway, none of them are urgent documents.
He walked to the lounge, pushed open the door, and saw two people whose eyes were wandering around, pretending to be very focused.
I won't expose them.
He waved to them, saying, "Let's go home."
"Brother, are you done?"
"That's about it. We'll deal with the rest tomorrow."
Xia Chenggan called the two men home.
The two exchanged a glance and then eagerly followed.
Occasionally, when Xia Chengan wasn't looking...
You pinch me, I glare at you.
Their eyes were filled with disdain for each other.
They were exchanging intense glances.
They were saying the same thing.
It's all your fault, you didn't hear anything!
Xia Chenggan noticed their little antics but didn't stop them from playing around.
Every child is sometimes naughty.
When talking about children, it seems he forgot one person.
"Where's Zhou Ran? Did she go home?"
"I don't know, he said he had things to do."
"Okay, let's go home first."
As Xia Chengan spoke, he took out his phone and dialed Zhou Ran's number.
Zhou Ran had arrived at her destination.
It is a high-end residential community.
It's the one that the Gu family transferred ownership to Shen Shuyun back then.
Shen Shuyun's mental state became somewhat abnormal due to the shock.
The Gu family gave them a sum of money and sent them abroad for treatment.
This villa will remind Gu Tingxiao of his loved ones.
They planned to resell it directly.
Zhou Ran found out, made a phone call, and got the villa back.
Gu Tingxiao happily presented it to Zhou Ran.
After all the formalities were completed, the villa became Zhou Ran's private property.
He first met Yin Zhihui here.
After rescuing Yin Zhihui, he arranged for her to hide outside for a while.
After getting this, he immediately arranged for the person to stay in this villa.
A few hundred meters further on is the villa where Zhou Chao imprisoned Yin Zhihui.
The Zhou dynasty searched every part of the capital city.
To everyone's surprise, he brought the person out and hid them here.
He came here to see Yin Zhihui.
I heard she's recovering very well, so it's time to ask her if she's interested in seeking revenge.
He offered various forms of friendly support.
They came in confidently and knocked on the door.
Yin Zhihui opened the door.
Her previously haggard and pale complexion has now become rosy.
Looks like you've been doing well lately.
The wrinkles between his brows had faded somewhat.
That not-so-good-looking face now looks full of energy.
"It's you! Come in quickly!"
Yin Zhihui let the person into the house, nervously closed the door, and followed behind.
Zhou Ran looked around the room; it was neatly organized.
It doesn't feel the same as the cleanliness I had before.
What used to resemble a neat and orderly showroom now feels like a home with a lived-in atmosphere.
"how are things?"
Zhou Ran chatted with him like an old friend.
Yin Zhihui nodded somewhat reservedly.
"Very good, thank you for your help, I am able to live a free life."
Yin Zhihui felt grateful towards Zhou Ran.
She was grateful to the young man for pulling her out of that confining cage.
To resist the Zhou Dynasty's search and provide her with a stable environment.
But what I felt most was fear.
She understands her own worth.
One cannot show kindness to another person without a reason.
Zhou Ran's kindness was like a sword hanging over her head, ready to fall at any moment.
The boy deliberately chose this villa, which was only a few hundred meters away from the place where he had been imprisoned.
It was a reminder to her that her heaven and hell were under Zhou Ran's control.
Zhou Ran can push him back at any time if she wants. Author's Note: Thank you to my mentor 9492239 (9492239) for your support! For more exciting content, please leave a message for this book on Liancheng Reading.
