I Became a Medical Genius in the 80s-Chapter 634 - 633

Luo Xudong remained calm, maneuvering the car into difficult-to-navigate areas so that the sneaky Jetta trailing them could not keep up closely, thus giving him a chance to escape.

With his pregnant wife by his side, Luo Xudong was unwilling to take any risks. Now was not the time for recklessness; ensuring Beisitian’s safety was paramount!

Luo Xudong said, "Sitiang, we’re being followed."

He worried that Beisitian would be unprepared, so he voiced his concern to give her a heads-up. She wasn’t the delicate and timid type; stating the facts plainly was better.

Beisitian had already sensed something was off. Although they hadn’t had much time to explore since arriving in Beijing, the city’s streets were laid out clearly north-south and east-west, making navigation easy. Yet, they were now traveling roads unfamiliar to her, and she noticed that Luo Xudong was deliberately choosing complex routes.

"I know," Beisitian said, instinctively placing her right hand on her belly. No matter what, she wouldn’t let any harm come to her child.

Beisitian reached into her inner pocket and pulled out a small pouch containing her effective talisman powder, some of which was for offensive use.

Especially since becoming pregnant and without Luo Xudong by her side, even though Chen Jinliang was there, she continued the habit of carrying some attack-specific talisman powder, increasing the quantity significantly. 𝘧𝓇ℯ𝑒𝓌𝑒𝑏𝓃𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭.𝒸ℴ𝓂

"They have guns, don’t underestimate them," Luo Xudong warned upon noticing her actions.

Beisitian felt a bit deflated; their guns posed a significant threat to her!

The talisman powder was only effective when the enemy was close.

"Hold onto the handle; I’m going to accelerate soon, and it’ll be bumpy," Luo Xudong instructed.

Beisitian nodded, grasping the handle with one hand while using the other to brace in front, preventing any sudden forward tilt.

The front seat was spacious, and Luo Xudong’s driving was steady, so she usually sat up front despite her large belly, which made fastening her seatbelt difficult; it was now significantly more dangerous.

Despite the warning of bumps, the car remained stable, only speeding up significantly. Occasionally veering to dodge obstacles, Luo Xudong slowed the vehicle gradually rather than making abrupt stops.

This was why he didn’t dare drive through larger alleys; densely populated areas required fast stops, which could cause irreparable harm to Beisitian and the child with a single abrupt stop.

Luo Xudong’s face was expressionless, but he was anxious inside, unable to communicate made him feel very passive. He headed towards the Red Painted Courtyard.

Only the Red Painted Courtyard could protect them now; once Beisitian was safely inside, he had nothing to fear.

A flash of ruthlessness crossed Luo Xudong’s eyes; once Beisitian was safe within the courtyard, not a single one of those pursuing them would escape!

Regretting his lack of communications equipment, Luo Xudong lamented it silently. This car was a shared vehicle, lacking wireless equipment unlike his usual mission vehicles.

Apart from the Jetta, Luo Xudong noticed two more vehicles joining the pursuit from different directions, not easily detectable unless one had keen observational skills.

Luo Xudong was certain the vehicles were together; their coordination was perfect, except for the leading Santana, which remained discreet.

Seeing this, Luo Xudong couldn’t predict how many people were involved or if they were heading into a trap.

Narrowing his eyes, Luo Xudong turned the car into an alley, driving with one hand on the wheel while the other barred in front of Beisitian.

Beisitian was really concerned about leaning forward and bumping her belly. Now, with Luo Xudong’s arm acting as a solid iron bar in front of her, she didn’t have to brace herself as firmly.

She knew they were heading towards the patriarch’s Red Painted Courtyard; as long as they entered the nearby alleyways, they would be safe. The area’s patrolling soldiers would certainly notice any trouble immediately.

"Sitiang, my gun is behind my waist, take it out for me," Luo Xudong said.

At his words, Beisitian reached out and retrieved the gun from his body, the cold weapon heavy in her hand.

"I’m going to release the safety," Luo Xudong stated.

Beisitian understood his intention, once again gripping the handle. At this, Luo Xudong swiftly disengaged the safety with both hands, returning one hand to the wheel and placing the gun in a convenient spot, barring in front of Beisitian again to prevent her from tilting forward.

As the car accelerated once more, likely because everyone was having dinner, the alley was emptier than usual, avoiding many unnecessary conflicts, yet simultaneously making it convenient for the tailing car.

Now, only one car could follow directly behind, making an encirclement unfeasible, but he worried about other cars. Though the alley had many exits, it was crucial to avoid getting trapped inside.

Typically, Luo Xudong would have fired already, targeting the drivers naturally. Those vehicles’ glass wasn’t bulletproof; a single shot could pierce through and hit the driver’s forehead. His inability to act left him feeling very uneasy.

Luo Xudong spotted a fork in the road ahead, narrowing his eyes, and began to steadily reduce speed, though still rapidly.

Beisitian leaned fully against Luo Xudong’s large hand; the inertia pressed most of her weight into his hand, providing her some reassurance because it remained unwavering, firmly supporting her body!

"I’m going to shoot," Luo Xudong announced.

He was warning Beisitian; without a silencer, the gunshots would be loud, and he didn’t want to startle her.

Understanding she was being a burden, Beisitian said, "Go ahead."

Before her words fell, the car steadied, the window simultaneously lowered. He turned and fired two shots, ’bang bang,’ an unusual sound that startled passersby into instinctively ducking, those with strong danger awareness had already squatted with their heads covered.

With Luo Xudong’s gunshots, the trailing Santana jerked violently; through the glass, chaos was visible inside. The driver’s eyes widened round, his head tilted to one side, the passenger reached for the steering wheel after dropping their gun, about to crash into a doorstep stone pillar, yet unable to brake.

After firing two shots, Luo Xudong didn’t pause; he shifted directly into third gear, pressing the accelerator to shoot out. As the car sped up, the pressure from behind made Beisitian’s legs weak, and she felt the babies in her belly moving restlessly due to the gunshots.
