Chapter 365: Huo Yunting, You Are Bleeding!
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Lu Zhaoyang swirled her red wine gla.s.s, and her eyes swept over Huo Yunting, who asked her to stay away from Lu Bai. But now what?
Huo Yunting had even let Lu Bai take charge of ordering the dishes; pretty much how a brother-in-law would behave.
Uh.
Lu Zhaoyang felt a little embarra.s.sed when she realized her mind had drifted off.
“Sister, you should eat more; you are too thin.” Lu Bai tapped on table to wake her up from her daze.
“You are the one who is thin.” The skinny Lu Bai was incomparable to the stocky Huo Yunting.
“It is in my genes.” Lu Bai smiled, revealing his two dimples.
Lu Bai looked innocent. How could he be a bad guy?
Suddenly, a hand forcefully pressed Lu Zhaoyang’s head back onto the seat as a silver bullet sc.r.a.ped Huo Yunting’s arm and shattered the gla.s.s on the neighboring table.
Bang!
“It is a gunshot!”
“Aah—”
“Run!”
The restaurant fell into chaos. A shooting in downtown in broad daylight?
“Huo Yunting, you are bleeding!” Lu Zhaoyang looked at his injured arm, wide-eyed. “Come on, let’s go to the hospital!”
Huo Yunting’s eyes landed on a place where a figure flashed across not far away.
“Xiao Bai, we have to go first. You take care!” Lu Zhaoyang held Huo Yunting up and left.
“Is it the same killer who wanted your life last time?” Lu Zhaoyang was nervous as Huo Yunting bled profusely and blood soaked his s.h.i.+rt.
Had he not reacted in time, the bullet would have hit directly in Lu Zhoayang head and she would be dead now.
“I don’t know.”
Huo Yunting took out his mobile phone and called Huo Li. His face turned pale from the pain and the from bleeding on his arm.
“Qing’an Department Store. Shooting.”
He then hung up.
“Stop moving around!” Lu Zhaoyang pressed her hands on his blood veins around the wound.
“Don’t worry. I am not as frail as you think.” Huo Yunting’s lips had also turned pale.
“The bullet hit the artery!” Lu Zhaoyang was angry and anxious. She picked up her pace.
Earlier, Huo Yunting was still thinking to fake it, but now heavens seemed to be granting his wish.
But seeing how concerned she was for him, it felt so worth it.
The two sped off. Meanwhile, Lu Bai, who was still in the restaurant, walked up to the shattered gla.s.s, picked up the bullet, and examined it in his hand.
The noises around him began to subside as most people had fled. He carried his shopping bags and quickly left the restaurant.
Ten minutes later, in the bas.e.m.e.nt parking lot of Qing’an Department Store.
Lu Bai spotted a man hiding in between the cars.
“Lao Jiu? You are still alive!”
“Yeah, disappointed?” Chen Jiu was fiddling a black gun in his hand. “What a shame! I almost got a headshot.”
“Why her?”
His first friend after leaving almost died in his brother’s hand.
“She is not the target but the man beside her. My skill is a little rusty. That was why I missed. Xiao Bai, we must avenge the horrific death of our big brother and others! That man is from the Huo family, he must die!”
Chen Jiu tucked his gun and looked at Lu Bai with his arms crossed. “Why are you questioning me? Are you defected?”
Lu Bai dropped his shopping bag and clenched his fists. “I don’t care who you are after, but not Lu Zhaoyang and Huo Yunting! You should instead find Huo Chen; he was the one who brought down the organization!”
