Chapter 470 The Great Escape
I didn't get a good night's rest.
Lin Yiyi had several intermittent nightmares.
People also feel dazed and listless.
Seeing that she looked sick, Zhao Sheng reached out and touched her forehead. It felt a little hot, so he put his forehead against hers to check the temperature.
No fever.
"Kitty, I'll ask Sister Ding to squeeze you a glass of orange juice later. You can drink it all in one go."
Thinking about the weather outside, Zhao Sheng whispered another reminder.
"It rained last night and the weather is cooler today. Don't wear a skirt for now. Wear long sleeves and long pants. Drink more hot water and sweat a little."
Lin Yi leaned on the man's arms and rubbed against him, feeling sleepy. "Are you going out later?"
If he were at home, he wouldn't remind her of these things and would just help her prepare everything.
"The securities firm needs my signature, so I'll be busy these next few days."
Zhao Sheng didn't tell her about the complicated intrigues outside. He stretched out his hand and scratched the tip of her nose. His tone was gentle, "Next month is your birthday. Do you want a gift?"
Lin Yiyi had no intention of thinking about a birthday present that was not for her birthday, and was obviously a little bored.
She bit her lips unconsciously, thinking for a moment, hiding some of her emotions.
“Your peace is the greatest gift.”
Fearing that the man might be suspicious, she smiled coquettishly and said, "You will pass by a fast food restaurant on your way to the securities exchange. Remember to bring me French fries and Coke."
"Okay, I'll bring it to you."
Zhao Sheng was filled with sorrow, but his heart was warmed by her words.
After breakfast, the Zhong family members went about their business.
Zhao Sheng first called Yang Wanchun to make sure that Zhong Xu's daily schedule was normal and he had no abnormal intentions.
Then we drove to the sales office of the Times Building under construction on the Peninsula to sign a house purchase contract. There were only 8 households on one floor, and the full payment plus various taxes and fees totaled HK$2.06 million.
The money he spent was less than a fraction of what was in his bank account.
Thinking about Xiaomao’s birthday next month and recent events, Zhao Sheng made a backup plan and went to the bank.
Convert the remaining HK$90,000,000 into U.S. dollars at an exchange rate of 4.6 to 1.
19565217.4 US dollars, he transferred 10 million US dollars to his beloved account.
The rest is kept as reserve fund for purchasing land and building buildings.
At present, in addition to two Jiulongcang stocks, he also has Yangjia shares that will generate long-term dividends.
He had no shortage of money, so Zhao Sheng decided to stop for a while, deal with those potential troubles, and live an ordinary life for a while.
…
Mid-levels Garden Residence.
After Lin Yiyi finished her classes, she took advantage of the free time before lunch to visit Youyou and Mozi, whom she hadn't seen for a few days.
Children change a lot. I feel like they are different after not seeing them for a few days. They are taller and fatter.
"Mommy, where is Daddy?" Youyou hadn't seen Daddy for several days and missed him a little.
Mozi crossed his legs like the adults, sat on a small stool and looked at his brother, with a look of questioning curiosity in his eyes.
"Did Daddy get beaten by the bad guy?"
Lin Yiyi pinched her son's baby fat. Children just have a kind of innocence and childishness.
"Daddy is quite busy and has to prepare for school. Have you read any books recently?"
"Yes, my brother and I read it every day." Mozi stood up and ran into the room to get the baby book.
After a while he ran back.
“…”
The picture book that a man bought to stop his son from watching TV is now colorful and unrecognizable.
Lin Yiyi flipped through a few pages and found that the characters in the original pictures were all deformed, and there were various holes on the pages.
"Doctor Mo, can you tell mom what you saw?"
Youyou leaned into his mother's arms and complained, "Mozhuzhu didn't see it, he used my paintbrush to draw."
Mozi was exposed and laughed, showing his neat little teeth and making faces at his brother.
I want a hug even if I rush to my mommy.
Lin Yiyi has a hard time holding one, how can she hold two?
She could only sit and let the twins stand beside her legs, holding one in each hand.
The mother-son bond only lasted a few minutes, and after a while Lin Yiyi felt hot.
The two naughty boys kept chattering and complaining about each other.
They pestered her to go to the beach again, but Lin Yiyi couldn't agree, so she just let them dig a sand pit in the backyard to look for treasure.
"Mommy is bad!" Mozi started to get angry and pretended to be pitiful.
Youyou also pouted, "Mommy doesn't like me and my brother."
"Who said I don't like you? You two are my children, how could I not like you?"
If she hadn't given birth to the child, she would have had to feed him three times a day.
Not meeting the little ones’ requests means you don’t like them.
Lin Yiyi didn’t know where they learned this improved technique, but in the past they would just cry and howl when asking for things.
Now he doesn't play that game anymore, he just pretends to be pitiful.
Old Mrs. Zhong smiled lovingly as she watched her granddaughter-in-law taking care of the children. She has two naughty great-grandchildren, and her home is lively.
Although it damaged her rose garden and broke many things, it also brought her a lot of joy.
For lunch, Lin Yiyi stayed at her grandmother's house to eat.
But she was not full, so she left half of her stomach empty and prepared to go back to eat the French fries her cousin brought home.
Only after the little one took a nap did Lin Yiyi follow the bodyguard back.
The garden house is very close to the Zhong family’s home, just a leisurely ten-minute walk away.
She sniffed the fragrance of the bouquet in her hand and walked on the clean and quiet street. Her mood was not as low as it had been in the morning.
Just as Lin Yiyi turned the corner, the bodyguard walking in front of her suddenly pushed her to the side.
The action was unexpected.
"Bang--"
A muffled gunshot rang out.
The bodyguard took out his gun and fired back, and ordered the people behind him, "Back! G1!"
Lin Yiyi was suddenly attacked and before she could react, the black-clad bodyguard behind her quickly dragged her backwards.
But after they ran a few steps, a car appeared on the other side blocking the road, and two masked men with guns shot at them directly.
G1 pulled the protector to dodge left and right, while quickly firing back, "Find cover!"
An L-shaped street with people at both exits.
Apart from telephone poles, there were no trash cans, let alone shelters.
Lin Yiyi's heart was about to jump out of her chest. She hid behind the bodyguard and moved back and forth following his movements.
Left, right, sideways, running and jumping with head down.
In a flash, the bodyguard quickly pulled out the flash bomb and smoke bomb from his waist and threw them over, then fired two shots in succession.
The thick smoke obscured the view.
G1 lifted her up and lifted her over the wall.
At the critical moment of life and death, Lin Yiyi climbed up faster than ever before, secretly thanking herself for not wearing a skirt.
"Jump!"
The bodyguard fired two more shots in the direction of the smoke, then took a few steps back to run, put force on the ground with his toes, and leaped onto the top of the wall in a few strides.
When he saw that outside the fence was a road seven or eight meters above the ground that went around the mountain, he finally understood why the protector didn't jump down.
"what to do?"
Lin Yiyi wanted to cry but had no tears, her hands and feet were shaking.
If no one rescues them, they will be dead when the smoke clears and those people rush over.
G1 fired another blind shot into the smoke as a deterrent, and jumped off the wall with his protector, preparing to leap onto the other side, which was higher and had iron spikes to prevent intrusion.
Lin Yiyi stood on the bodyguard's shoulder and tried to hook up to the edge of the wall, but the wall was too high and she couldn't reach the edge at all.
I caught a glimpse of the slowly fading smoke, and felt a little bit of despair in my heart.
The smoke dissipated too quickly, and the two bombs could only buy less than 30 seconds of delay.
G1's heart sank when he heard the gunfire stop on the other side, and he let go of the protector on his shoulder.
"Ms. Lin, I'll take you out. Just keep running forward as fast as you can."
After saying that, a small ball was thrown forward. With an explosion, the bodyguard and his protected person ran towards the direction of the explosion.
The person who was driving and blocking the road was dealt with, and the people behind him caught up.
In less than two minutes, the situation changed rapidly.
Lin Yiyi rushed past the burning vehicle and subconsciously ran towards the garden house. The gunshots stopped at this time. She looked back and saw the bodyguard falling to the ground and the masked man further away.
Change your mind instantly...
She did not stop at the gate of the garden house.
Instead, he turned and ran in the other direction.
She couldn't be so selfish as to bring danger into Grandma Zhong's house just to save her life. Youyou and Mozi were still young.
