Chapter 797: Take Another Look and I’ll Gouge Your Eyes Out
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Just as she glanced to her side, a scream rang out. “Ah! Someone is kidnapping my child! Help! Someone save my child!”
An’an turned her head over quickly, and saw a woman wailing on the main street. Her 6-month-old infant child was being s.n.a.t.c.hed away by a buff, tattooed man.
s.n.a.t.c.hing a child in on the main street, how unbridled and unforgivable!
An’an’s eyes turned cold and she moved forward in a flash. Stretching her fingers out, she grabbed hold of the tattooed man’s shoulder.
“Argh!”
The tattooed man felt a sudden pain in his shoulders, as though his bone was about to break. He tossed the kid straight out of his hands.
A man in a black sedan caught the baby. It was an accomplice. With the baby in tow, the car sped away.
“Miss, please save my child, my child has been taken,” the mother cried to An’an.
An’an threw the tattooed man aside and started chasing after the black sedan. There was a jam up front, so she jumped up, her high heels landing on the car roof with amazing agility. She ran across the car roofs, her movements like those in action movies.
The pa.s.sers-by were all stunned.
“Oh my G.o.d, who do you think she is? Amazing, I’m in love!”
The commotion outside had made its way over. Lu Yan, who was lying in the van, slowly opened his eyes. His cold brown eyes looked towards the area of commotion.
Almost instinctively he recognized the lithe black figure flying across the car roofs.
His brown eyes froze, he and sat up on his strong back. There was no way he had seen wrongly. He would recognize her instantly even if he were to disintegrate into ashes. It was An’an.
An’an!
What was she doing? And where did she even get her skills from?
1There was no way she could move like that if she hadn’t received formal training.
Lu Yan reached over with his large palms to pull open the van door, and got out.
Only his left leg stood on the ground. The other leg of his pants dangled emptily, swaying in the night breeze.
But he did not seem fazed by the empty pant leg and was not dejected. He stuck his hands in his pant pockets and stood with his 1.9 meter frame, squinting with his cold brown eyes at the action occurring over there.
An’an was chasing down the black sedan and in the background were the shrill cries of the mother.
Lu Yan was experienced and could tell at a glance what had happened. His thin lips curved upwards, and he bent down to pick up a rock beside his leg.
It had been so many years, using a gun was something he could do in his sleep, and his accuracy was practically unbeatable. He lifted his hand and flung the stone towards the black sedan.
With a smash, the winds.h.i.+eld of the black sedan shattered.
The sharp sound of a brake rang out, and the black sedan skidded on the side of the road, cras.h.i.+ng into the side rails. It was forced to come to a stop.
An’an pulled open the back door in one swift motion, hauling the person inside out.
“Miss, thank you, thank you so much. My child!” The mother carried the child over into her arms, and thanked An’an profusely.
At this moment, the warm-hearted citizens had all gathered, along with the police. An’an took a step back, her cold eyes sweeping over accurately to the van.
The rock from just now had come from the direction of that van. The throw had been swift, accurate and unforgiving. There had to be someone skilled nearby.
Who was it?
At this moment, the van started and was about to leave. An’an ran over swiftly and burst in front of the vehicle. “Stop!”
Lu Yan had no choice but to slam his foot on the brakes, since An’an was in front of the can blocking his path. Lowering his baseball cap to cover his face, he kept quiet.
An’an bent down to pick up the plastic bag on the floor, then reached out with her small hands to open the back door of the van and climbed in.
This was a normal van and there was no one else in it. An’an’s gaze swept the area before she sat down in the back seat. Then she looked towards the driver and asked, “Did you see anyone suspicious just now?”
Lu Yan shook his head.
This man wasn’t speaking and he had pulled his baseball cap extremely low down across his face. With the van lights switched off, it was hard to see anything clearly. An’an’s eyes shone with suspicion and wariness. This man was shady.
“Why aren’t you speaking?”
Lu Yan reached out and pointed at the identification certificate on the winds.h.i.+eld. ‘Disabled individual’ was written on it.
Disabled individual? He was a mute?
An’an took a few looks at him. He was well-built, and seemed strangely familiar.
She took another look. His right pant leg was empty, and there was a prosthetic limb on the pa.s.senger seat beside him.
He really was disabled!
An’an’s feeling of familiarity immediately vanished. Her lotus-like lips curved upwards in self-mockery. Just a while ago, she had actually seen some semblance of Lu Yan in this crippled driver.
Stop it. Lu Yan is already dead.
The suspicion and wariness she had in her heart had vanished as well. “Please drive and take me home. Do you know of the Champagne Residences?”
Lu Yan nodded and started driving.
…
Lu Yan took a more secluded path. He was very familiar with the Capital, and Champagne Residence was the most expensive territory in the Capital. He had a house there as well. Now, he was sending An’an back home.
He lifted his head slightly and looked at An’an through the rear-view mirror. She was wearing a slitted black cheongsam, and after that intense situation, was leaning lazily against the back seat, a light sheen on her exquisite face. Her white skin was speckled with perspiration and her chest rose and fell with every breath she took.
The slit in her cheongsam was already high to begin with, but it had split even more when she was chasing the car just now. Her underwear could almost be seen. It was black, with two thin straps.
Sh*t! Lu Yan retracted his gaze quickly. His strong waist was getting numb, and his Adam’s apple bobbled up and down.
An evil fire ignited within him.
In the three years he hadn’t seen her, she had changed so much and now, she was already a young lady.
Her every action exuded the lazy s.e.xiness of a young woman, to the point that no one would be able to take their eyes off her.
She was 21 years old, at the peak of her beauty.
Lu Yan did not drive fast, it may have even been considered slow to some. It seemed as though time had stopped at this instance, where she was sitting in the back of his car.
His empty head was filled in this moment. He wasn’t sure where he wanted to drive, maybe to the end of the world?
A few seconds later, he couldn’t resist lifting his eyes to take another look at her.
This time, An’an noticed the gaze coming from the front of the van. The roads here were remote, there were no lights, and she couldn’t see the man’s face clearly. But his gaze was heated, and seemed to be focused on her firm thighs.
Was he peeking at her?
An’an’s lip curved up slightly, and she raised her beautiful brows lazily. “Take another look and see if I gouge your eyes out.”
Gouge his eyes out?
Lu Yan chuckled inside. Oh my, how fierce she had become. He was so scared.
With that, he retracted his gaze.
Looking down, An’an saw he had a pack of cigarettes beside his hands. They weren’t good smokes and only cost a few dollars a pack, but her tobacco cravings stirred.
“Give me one,” she said.
