Translator: Draaon Roat Translation Editor: Draaon Roat Translation

At this moment, the scene was exceptionally chaotic, with gunfire and shouts echoing everywhere. Gu Chen could no longer distinguish whether the black-clad bodyguards approaching him were his own or Jason’s. 𝓯𝘳𝘦𝑒𝓌𝘦𝘣𝓃ℴ𝘷𝘦𝘭.𝓬𝘰𝑚

However, he knew that the current situation required a swift evacuation. Uncertain if Song Fan had any other injuries, he needed to rush her to the hospital.

Initially clear-headed, Song Fan observed the chaotic scene. Sensing that something was wrong, she said to the person assisting her, “Give me a gun. These people are after Gu Chen. You should get him out first.”

However, the person didn’t utter a word but quickly assisted her in retreating, stumbling along the way.

There were also people from Charlie and Jason at the scene. Song Fan didn’t know this person, but seeing him move further away from Gu Chen, bullets rapidly falling around him, with bodyguards already fallen at his side, she anxiously shouted, “Quick, the opponents are professional killers. We must save Gu Chen first!”

Suddenly, the person supporting her covered her mouth and nose with his hand. She caught a whiff of the scent of anesthetic. Then she heard him say, “Damn it,” before quickly losing consciousness.

Meanwhile, the gunfight on Gu Chen’s side continued. The opponents unleashed a barrage of firepower, clearly well-prepared. Gu Chen had thought that Song Fan had already been taken away, so he felt relieved.

Considering it might be a trap set up by Jason to lure him in, he was glad he had followed. Otherwise, Song Fan might have been captured by these people long ago.

Gu family’s bodyguards were well-versed in handling such situations, almost always armed when protecting Gu Chen. Though Charlie’s people were initially a bit panicked, they soon joined the battle.

What surprised Gu Chen was that Jason’s men also fully engaged the opponents. He found it puzzling, but at this moment, he couldn’t afford to dwell on it; he needed to quickly suppress the opponents’ firepower.

Luckily, there weren’t many vehicles on this road. Even amid the gunfire, casualties were kept within a controllable range. Gu Chen’s team received the notification and swiftly arrived at the scene, while the opponents had already planned their escape route and evacuated cleanly in just over ten minutes.

“Mr. Gu, are you injured?” Su Yang, looking pale and anxious, asked. Gu Chen shook his head, then surveyed the area and asked, “Any survivors?”

“A few are unconscious, and we’re preparing to take them to the hospital,” Su Yang said seriously. “I’ll make sure to extract information about the mastermind. Brown Group’s people are here too. What should we do?”

Su Yang meant how to handle the current situation. Gu family’s members wouldn’t act recklessly, but the same couldn’t be said for the Brown Group’s people.

At this moment, Charlie also arrived at the scene. He had already inquired about the situation from his people on-site but kept a furrowed brow. Seeing Gu Chen unharmed, he breathed a sigh of relief. “Mr. Gu, that was close. If something happened to you, I wouldn’t know how to explain it. What about Song Fan? Is she okay?”

“She…” Gu Chen suddenly realized something was amiss. He immediately instructed Su Yang, “Go check with our people and the hospital. See if anyone has seen Song Fan.”

“Mr. Brown, please inquire from the Brown family’s people if they took Song Fan away.” Gu Chen rubbed his temples forcefully. He suddenly had a bad premonition. “Song Fan is injured. I asked someone to take her away just now, but that person wasn’t from the Gu family.”

The implication was that the person who took Song Fan away should be from the Brown family. However, it was uncertain whether they were Jason’s or Charlie’s people.

“Song Fan didn’t stay by your side?” Charlie widened his eyes. “I came straight from the hospital. If she returned there, I would have known. Where is she taken?”

When she woke up, Song Fan felt sore all over, and the injuries on her arm and leg throbbed with pain. Her head was especially dizzy. She didn’t immediately open her eyes; instead, she heard the voices of two men beside her.

A young man, sounding somewhat scared, asked, “What just happened?

Gunfight? Are we still in A City? Brother Chen, isn’t this too big of a deal?”

The other man, the driver, didn’t answer immediately. After more than ten seconds, he said in a low voice, “We’re here to abduct her. Other matters have nothing to do with us. Don’t say anything.”

But the young man was extremely frightened. His voice trembling, he said, “But there are dead bodies at the scene. I saw someone’s brain splattered out, and there’s also… ugh…

The man retched, obviously horrified by the scene just now.

Brother Chen cursed softly and then handed him a water bottle, saying in a low voice, “Xiao Xu, you useless fool. You didn’t dare to go forward just now. This time the money is substantial. When we meet Miss Meng later, don’t show this pitiful look. It was risky this time. She can’t dismiss us with just five hundred thousand dollars. That’s impossible..”
