Your Beloved Sweetheart Is Online - Chapter 158 - 159 Fierce Fire_1
"Get Baihao out of here too!" finished Gu Shaocheng, enfolding Chenxing into his arms. He swiftly climbed into the car, his voice at that moment looming with a chilling, relentless determination, "Identify whoever it was; I won’t let them off lightly!"
The close protection guards exchanged a glance, then shut the car door. For them, a sudden attack was all too common. It was just that it had startled the Miss Chenxing in Shaocheng’s arms; the Master would surely be furious.
"Are you still scared?" Inside the car, Gu Shaocheng leaned sideways. With one hand rested on the back of the seat, he cradled her in his arms, "Stay here with me, don’t be afraid! I won’t let anything happen to you."
"What happened?" Chenxing could see a long line of cars in front and behind them through the glass.
"Leave it to me," Gu Shaocheng didn’t answer her, "I had been intending to wait until the third day to bring you to enjoy the hot springs once we’d cleared up some petty theft problems, but, as it seems, we won’t be able to get to the hot springs right now. So, make do by taking a nap instead in my arms; when you wake, all this will be gone." This time, he had seriously underestimated the matter.
Chenxing nodded, her hands around his waist. With him around, she told herself, there was no fear!
They spent that night journeying down a road layered with heavy snow.
Chenxing was extremely tired, mustering no energy to be afraid, and quickly fell asleep in his arms.
Upon waking, it was just as Gu Shaocheng said it would be; everything from the previous night felt like a dream.
Nan Baihao was seated in the passenger’s seat, while Gu Shaocheng was still holding her, resting his closed eyes.
Through the rearview mirror, all that was visible were cars in front and behind. Looking closely, there seemed to be around forty to fifty vehicles, all identical, she wondered, won’t such a large convoy cause traffic congestion on the snowy road?
She realized that this was the first time Gu Shaocheng was traveling with such caution. It would be a lie to say her heart didn’t flutter with unease.
She felt they were undoubtedly in danger, yet Gu Shaocheng laid in the most comfortable position, closing his eyes to rest. The man, who stood at the pinnacle of power, was delicately stroking her earlobes with his slightly rough thumb. Chenxing was unaware that Gu Shaocheng had weathered all sorts of upheavals to get to where he was today. Her gaze drifted back outside; it was still night, the lighting was neither bright nor dark, and not long after, the cars in front began to stop.
"What is it now?" Chenxing asked instinctively, a sudden unease tugging at her heart.
Nan Baihao said, "Brother, let me go and check."
Just then, an internal call came through, "Sir, there’s been an avalanche ahead, blocking the road. The road clearing team is rushing to clear it."
Gu Shaocheng remained silent, not even uttering an acknowledgment. Nan Baihao took the internal call and left some instructions. The situation was not good, he was always on high alert.
As expected, no sooner had he finished speaking, than the workers on the road clearing team all drew their weapons, with people joining from all directions and launching a fierce firefight.
"Ah..." Chenxing let out a small scream, startled. Gu Shaocheng patted her shoulder, "It’s alright."
They were sitting inside an armored vehicle and there were many bodyguards in front and behind them; he had nothing to worry about. To distract the frightened ’Little Bai’ in his arms, he found himself asking her to sing in this situation, "Can you sing? Sing me one of your best songs."
"Ah... Um... I..."
He chuckled lightly, "Just asking you to sing is making you stutter? Wasn’t that song you sang on the school track the other day pretty good? Sing that, now."
... Today is a bit busy, so will continue the update at three in the afternoon. Does everyone really think there is love between these two right now? I feel they are still in the adjustment period of getting along, not at the stage of professing love...it’s just cohabitation...
