My Scheming Little Devil - Chapter 1165: Life-Saving Benefactor
A bullet raced towards her like this.
Her heart almost stopped; she felt she was done for, about to die right here, right now.
A huge palm reached out, violently pulled her back, and a strong arm dragged her to safety. The bullet pierced the flesh of that arm, blood gushing out profusely.
Ye Lu was shock-stricken, seeing the blood pouring from Lie Feng’s arm, the warm blood even splattering beside her. Her heart jolted—this man had just saved her life.
"Don’t freeze up, let’s go!" Lie Feng yanked her and sprinted off.
They burst out of the hospital, several cars rushing out of the garage. They quickly got in the cars and sped away as bullets whizzed by.
Those people were clearly prepared, and as they saw them get into the cars, they also got into their vehicles to chase them. After half an hour of pursuit and gun battles on the road, they finally shook off their pursuers.
Ling Kong suggested they go to his local villa, claiming it was extremely secluded and that he had brought dozens of top Ji Family bodyguards with him, making it even safer.
So, Ye Lu and the others headed there.
Upon arrival, Yan Su promptly treated Lie Feng’s wounds. Fortunately, the bullet had passed through the flesh without hitting bone, and the injured arm wasn’t the one he used to shoot, which was lucky. There was no serious damage and it wouldn’t affect his combat ability.
In this gun battle, among their twenty-odd people, one died and several others suffered minor injuries of various degrees.
The situation was relatively good.
Third Young Master Jun stood on the second-floor balcony.
Ye Lu walked over.
She watched as Third Young Master Jun wiped the fresh blood splattered on his gun. His cold face was taut with grim determination and his eyes were piercingly icy, unexpectedly silent, which made her feel gloomy as well.
"This incident suggests that the traitor is right by your side, doesn’t it?" she asked directly. 𝙛𝒓𝒆𝙚𝒘𝒆𝓫𝙣𝓸𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝒄𝒐𝓶
This time was different from the other time at the villa. Back then, many people knew the location of the villa, including some subordinates in the country, as well as the people who came with Third Young Master, and even Ivan and his daughter.
But this time, the sanatorium was a hastily chosen hiding place. During those few days, apart from those around him, no one else could have known.
Thus, the range of suspects had suddenly narrowed. Only about twenty people who followed him closely, and the traitor must be among them.
"I don’t want to suspect any of my subordinates who have been through life and death with me!" Third Young Master Jun’s voice was calm but sharp, yet it carried an underlying sadness that couldn’t be concealed.
"They’ve been with you for many years, I know you have deep feelings for them. But that’s why, if the traitor isn’t found soon, all of your actions along the way will be exposed, and it will be very dangerous," Ye Lu couldn’t help worrying.
They had been attacked twice already, and the situation was only going to get more dangerous.
They had to find this traitor promptly; otherwise, future problems would be endless.
Initially, she had some suspicions about Lie Feng, for they were attacked the day after he returned, and when he was captured by the Black Wolf Army, he wasn’t injured—which seemed very suspicious.
But he had just saved her life at a critical moment, and she really couldn’t bring herself to doubt her savior.
It was said that he had followed Third Young Master Jun for many years, had been with him through life and death, and had blocked bullets for him numerous times. Not to mention instances from former times, but just recently during the villa attack, if it hadn’t been for his protection of Third Young Master and his sacrifice to draw the enemy away,
Third Young Master Jun might not be alive.
This man saved both her and her husband; if he truly wanted them dead, why would he bother saving them?
