100: Under Attack

Under Attack

Song Wenqi was not a kind soul, but he did not want to wear her out like this. How would she earn money for me if she died from exhaustion? So, he agreed.1

The group continued on their original route to F Prefecture.

Gu Chen and Gu Zi also contacted Qinglang, and had him tail them.

——————

However, after they were done, the group of them encountered an accident when they were returning the way they came.

Lu Ning was getting some shut-eye on the helicopter when the aircraft suddenly jolted twice. Then, a series of gunshots rang in her ears.

In an instant, Lu Ning's eyes were wide open; however, before she could react, the aircraft shuddered and rapidly descended.

In her panic she grabbed at both sides, but it was useless. As the aircraft fell, a thunderous roar resounded in her ears, and pain assaulted her entire body.

…

Lu Ning had fainted in the helicopter. She came to on her own, but her senses seemed to be failing; she was dizzy, her vision was blurry, and she could not hear anything. Her heart was hammering in her chest; she was confused and on edge.

She was still strapped to her seat; Lu Ning struggled to unbuckle the seatbelt, but her entire body hurt and her fingers were weak.

There seemed to be sounds coming from outside; the ringing of gunshots and somebody's voice, but she could not hear them clearly.

Song Wenqi leaned against the helicopter for cover. He could hear bullets whistling by or clinking off the aircraft.

He saw an opportunity—he got up and finished off two opponents with two quick, accurate, and ruthless shots. Then, he immediately ducked back down.

Sensing some movement in the chopper, he shouted inside, "Brat, you still alive?"

Despite shouting a few times, there was no answer. He took a deep breath and wanted to risk turning around to have a look, but in the next second, he heard a knock coming from the cabin and instantly heaved a sigh of relief.

However, this was not time for him to relax.

It was obvious that the other party wanted him dead. There were not many people with him to begin with, and only him and his lackey left.

Am I going to die here?

Before he could react, he suddenly heard even more intense gunfire followed by screams. Song Wenqi was thrown off balance. He poked his head out and saw a bunch of people coming from behind his opponents; they knocked them down, one after the other, thereby saving his life.

His ears instantly stopped ringing.

Song Wenqi looked at the bunch running over; they were unfamiliar, so he did not let his guard down. He wanted to see what they were going to do, but at the very least their guns were not pointed at him.

Before Song Wenqi could speak, the people from the other side dashed over, skipping past him towards the mangled body of the helicopter.

Song Wenqi: ?

Gu Chen and Gu Zi put away their weapons and hurriedly climbed into the cabin.

"Ning'ning!"

"Boss! Baby! Can you hear me?!"

Song Wenqi: That's a lot of nicknames…

Lu Ning was semi-conscious and could hear some voices. She gradually raised her head and looked over.

She fumbled with the last buckle of her seatbelt, unfastened it, and fell facedown.

Gu Chen and Gu Zi spotted her and quickly rushed to her side.

"We're here, we're right here. You okay, can you hear me? Are you feeling alright?"

Gu Chen kept asking.

Before Lu Ning could react, her body was already lying on their laps. She looked at their faces and smiled; she sluggishly said, "I knew it had to be the two of you."

Without waiting for their response, she blacked out again.

"Boss!"
