Wen Nian immediately replied, "Okay, I'll listen to you from now on and won't do anything reckless."
He'd do anything to stay.
Lu Zhengye nodded.
"Brother, should I try to get rid of that bounty on the black market?"
As long as the bounty remains, assassins will keep coming.
Lu Zhengye: "You don't need to worry about this."
Wen Nian was somewhat disappointed, but he had said he would listen.
"good."
Wei Qing and Wen Nian left, leaving only Lin Yusheng and Lu Zhengye in the ward.
Lu Zhengye stared at Lin Yusheng for a very long time.
Lin Yusheng sat down on the chair by the bed and asked with a smile, "Is there something dirty on my face? Why are you looking at me like that?"
"No, it's very beautiful. I just feel that it's unfair to you."
"I wasn't wronged. Are you referring to the Wen Nian incident?"
Lu Zhengye nodded.
Lin Yusheng said, "To be honest, he was doing it for your own good, but some villains took advantage of the situation. In fact, without him, I don't know how I would have told you about my experience."
Lu Zhengye pulled Lin Yusheng into his arms with one hand, "Thank you, wife."
Lin Yusheng's heart skipped a beat at the address. She hugged Lu Zhengye back, her eyes welling up with tears.
Things will definitely get better and better in the future.

When Wen Nian returned home, he looked at the closed door next door and felt a struggle in his heart.
Shouldn't he apologize?
But thinking about it, I decided against it. There was no need for it; they weren't people I needed to get to know well.
Shen Yishu lay in bed, tossing and turning.
Finally, she couldn't help but send a message to Sheng Sheng.
"Was I wrong to stop Wen Nian from firing? If it weren't for me, President Lu wouldn't have been injured, and you wouldn't be so worried."
"What nonsense are you talking about? Putting aside the fact that you did us a huge favor by preventing him from firing, your intentions were good. In Country A, being caught carrying a gun is no small matter. You did nothing wrong."
Shen Yishu felt a little better after seeing what her best friend said.
The two chatted for a while longer, and then Shen Yishu fell asleep.
...
When she woke up again, it was already dark outside, and when she looked at the time, it was already eight o'clock.
After washing up, Shen Yishu went downstairs to eat.
After finishing dinner, on her way back she found that a section of the road was dark because the streetlights were broken.
She felt a vague unease, but then thought she was probably overthinking it.
Shen Yishu paused for a moment before turning on her phone's flashlight and walking forward.
The evening breeze was chilly, and she couldn't help but quicken her pace.
"Who is it?" Shen Yishu turned around and called out. She had just heard footsteps.
But there was nothing after that.
Shen Yishu forced herself to calm down, and then took a few more steps.
The sound of footsteps appeared again.
Shen Yishu was so scared her heart was about to jump out of her chest, and she ran away as fast as she could.
But after running only a few steps, a sharp pain shot through his scalp.
Someone grabbed her hair from behind, and said fiercely, reeking of stench, "You filthy old woman, trying to run away?"
The voice sounded very familiar to Shen Yishu. After searching her mind for the person's image, a huge sense of fear enveloped her.
This is the drunkard who harassed her repeatedly, causing her to move.
"Let me go." Shen Yishu struggled.
"Help! Help!"
The next second her mouth was covered.
A foul odor mixed with the smell of alcohol rushed into her nose, making Shen Yishu feel nauseous, and tears instantly streamed down her face.
The drunkard said viciously, "Let's see if you can still call the police today. Wait until you get pregnant with my child, then let's see if you'll kneel down and beg me to marry you."
Shen Yishu trembled with fear at his words and felt utterly disgusted.
Only the ignorant people in the mountains who traffic women would have such an idea.
The drunkard dragged Shen Yishu away from the roadside.
Shen Yishu struggled desperately, her nails scratching at the hand covering her mouth.
She wanted to call for help and run away. Who could save her?
Shen Yishu was of average height for a girl. The drunkard originally wanted to drag her to a secluded alley, but he was tired now.
So he dragged her behind the bushes and started tearing off Shen Yishu's clothes.
Anyway, at this time, there aren't many people walking on this road.
He said breathlessly, "I'll teach you a lesson right now."
Shen Yishu resisted desperately, grabbing a stone and smashing it at the man's head.
But she hesitated for a second before hitting him, so the drunkard only suffered minor injuries, but instead became enraged and slapped her twice.
"Damn it, you bitch, you dare to hit someone? Wait until you marry me, and I'll beat you to death."
Shen Yishu seized the opportunity and bit his hand hard.
The drunkard cried out in pain and grabbed her hair.
Shen Yishu's vision went black, and it felt like her entire scalp was being ripped off; the pain almost made her faint.
She thought she was going to die here today.
When the drunkard reached out and pulled at her collar, her resistance seemed futile.
Shen Yishu was filled with despair, tears streaming down her face. She had done nothing wrong, so why had she attracted such a demon?
There was no sound around her, and she couldn't see a single person. Only two cars sped by. Her mouth was covered, so she couldn't call for help.
Just as she was making the worst-case scenario plan, a shadow elongated by the moonlight appeared.
Hope flickered in Shen Yishu's tear-filled eyes.
She tried to call for help, but her mouth was covered, and she could only make soft whimpering sounds.
But that's enough; the person is walking.
You'll definitely be able to hear it once you get close.
The man had obviously thought of this as well, and actually pulled out a fruit knife from his waist.
He covered Shen Yishu's mouth with one hand and watched the newcomer warily with the other.
When Shen Yishu saw the person's face, her body couldn't help but tremble slightly.
Wen Nian had actually noticed the commotion from a great distance.
He just felt disgusted; nowadays, many people use the guise of being a couple to do such despicable things.
He didn't want to look at it even once.
But under the reflection of the moonlight, a silvery light shone on his face.
Wen Nian immediately looked over warily, and only a shifty-eyed man was visible from the bushes.
When the man realized he had been discovered, he gave a fierce warning, "You'd better mind your own business and get lost."
Wen Nian hated being lectured the most. Just as he was thinking about whether or not to teach this person a lesson, he heard a pitiful whimpering sound.
Even though his mouth was covered, he somehow understood what she was trying to say: "Wen Nian, please save me."
Here, very few people know him, let alone women.
The face of the woman in the champagne-colored dress appeared in Wen Nian's mind.
He stopped in his tracks.
Seeing this, the man roared warningly, "Do you want to die?"
Wen Nian curled his lips into a mocking smile, which sounded strangely eerie in this situation. "Want to? If you're so capable, come and kill me."
The man was enraged by his unexpected answer and charged forward with his knife.
