Rebirth: She is Ready for a Counterattack!-Chapter 482 - 481: The Rescuer

At this moment, Gu Xiaoqing suddenly felt something was wrong. They had just eaten, so why were they eating again?

Similarly, Feng Qingyang also realized something was off.

Feng Qingyang did a backflip and immediately moved away from the table, quickly retreating to the bright window by the dining room.

"Fang Zhixue, you actually didn’t stay to protect the Fang Family and came here to rescue someone?"

Gu Xiaoqing was also surprised, the woman in front of her didn’t look like Fang Zhixue at all?

Her voice, body shape, and everything else were not quite like Fang Zhixue.

"You’re quite alert."

As the woman’s body emitted a few cracking sounds, Gu Xiaoqing was astonished to realize the woman’s figure became taller by a few inches, and to make matters worse, her voice also reverted to Fang Zhixue’s voice.

"With Shaohan around, do you think the Fang Family would still be in the Capital, waiting obediently for your assassins and the Nalan Family to attack them?"

Fang Zhixue evidently had enough confidence, having arranged everything for the Fang Family before specifically coming to rescue Gu Xiaoqing.

Fang Zhixue looked around and sneered, "Let the ripper come out. If he’s not here, then Feng Qingyang, there’s no one who can save you."

Feng Qingyang leaned against the window and slowly stood up, smiling, "Who said the ripper is all I have? The ripper, along with Lizard and someone else you wouldn’t expect, went to take down the Fang Family. Fang Zhixue, you were too careless."

"Lizard?"

Fang Zhixue frowned slightly. She had heard of Lizard, a really troublesome fellow, with skills matching Fang Shaohan and more experience in tracking and combat.

However, she believed they hadn’t yet discovered her new location.

Seeing Fang Zhixue faltering a bit, Feng Qingyang smiled and said, "Did you think I would come to face you unprepared? Although you did everything so secretly that almost no one knew you moved the Fang Family immediately after our last meeting. But it’s a pity, Fang Zhixue, your failure this time is because you didn’t kill that foolish woman."

"Foolish woman?"

Gu Xiaoqing immediately knew who it was because back then, there were only three women: her, Fang Zhixue, and that foolish woman, who of course, was Jiang Limin who wet her pants.

Fang Zhixue knew more than Gu Xiaoqing, and when she strung together what she knew, she sharply questioned Feng Qingyang, "Was it you who threatened her? And killed her two uncles?"

"Wrong, that was Lizard’s doing. I just told Lizard to let the foolish woman find you."

Indeed, among the people Jiang Limin knew, the most formidable was probably Fang Zhixue, and only Fang Zhixue could protect her.

Moreover, everything she went through was because of the Fang Family’s implication.

Fang Zhixue, despite Jiang Limin being a daughter from a military family compound with a strong family background and good connections, had ignored her.

"Did you place a tracker on her?"

"Bingo, you guessed right. A signal-jamming proof tracker."

"You placed it on her when you were changing clothes with her?"

"Yes, made her temporarily unconscious, had a doctor perform a minimally invasive surgery, and placed a tiny signal transmitter under her armpit skin."

Feng Qingyang dining with Fang Zhixue was not an aimless encounter; he not only declared war but also had plans at that time.

Otherwise, why would he provoke Jiang Limin for no reason and let the ripper appear in front of Fang Zhixue?

One must know, the ripper is an assassination expert, not a direct enemy for Fang Zhixue. Besides, such assassins generally work better from the shadows, don’t they?

Letting him appear was merely to create an opportunity to embarrass Jiang Limin and then take her elsewhere, undergo a brief minimally invasive surgery, and successfully place a tracker.

One could say that from the start, Feng Qingyang never intended to bring down New Horizon. His every move was a smokescreen.

His primary goal was first to kill Fang Shaohan, second to settle the South Asia business, and third to take away Gu Xiaoqing!

"I know you understand in your heart, even though Jiang Limin is foolish, she likes Fang Shaohan, so she wouldn’t do anything to harm him. However, sometimes she acts without thinking. And you, out of compassion for Jiang Limin, for various reasons, didn’t make a move against her but instead chose to protect her."

"So, did she move with the Fang Family?"

Gu Xiaoqing understood the current situation.

Fang Zhixue’s biggest weakness was her need to protect Jiang Limin, and this wasn’t a mistake; it was a responsibility Fang Zhixue had to bear.

Because Jiang Limin turned out this way due to her fault.

She could become the feared Blood Rose for the nation but that doesn’t mean she lacks responsibility or conscience.

On the contrary, everything she had done for the Fang Family and everyone else at this point demonstrated she was someone with responsibility and accountability.

Maybe her methods were unconventional, but she was indeed a qualified sister-in-law and a competent soldier.

"So, Fang Zhixue, aren’t you going back to save them?"

Feng Qingyang asked Fang Zhixue with a smile.

Fang Zhixue took a deep breath, shielded Gu Xiaoqing behind her, and stared at Feng Qingyang, "It’s already too late now. All I can do is take you down before your people act, and then everything will end!"

"Take me down? Can you?"

Feng Qingyang asked casually.

"You can try!" Fang Zhixue stared at Feng Qingyang, still able to calmly analyze the situation and choose the most likely breakthrough despite the circumstances.

Feng Qingyang shrugged, spread his hands at Fang Zhixue, "Wow, you’re the second person to say that to me. Sometimes I really wonder if you and Gu Xiaoqing are sisters because if I didn’t know your backgrounds, I might consider you sisters."

"You talk too much!"

Fang Zhixue didn’t hesitate to lunge at Feng Qingyang.

Bang!

At that moment, a gunshot rang out.

Fang Zhixue couldn’t possibly react; she only instinctually felt danger. Just before the gunshot, her advancing body suddenly paused.

Still, blood splattered from Fang Zhixue’s shoulder.

"What an amazing sniper!"

Gu Xiaoqing exclaimed, because the opponent made a reflexive shooting response after Fang Zhixue reacted, altering their original shooting trajectory as Fang Zhixue paused.

Although this instinct was strong, it still couldn’t precisely manage shooting accuracy, so they hit Fang Zhixue’s shoulder instead of her head.

In such a situation, Gu Xiaoqing didn’t need to harbor past grievances as their act of risking their life to save her was enough to offset the little resentment left.

Gu Xiaoqing stepped forward and caught Fang Zhixue as she fell to the ground.
