Subordinate Doting - Chap 14
Fear quickly spread in the car, and everyone’s mind was on edge.
As the saying goes, “Director, one of our trucks is running out of gas.”
”The same goes for the second car! It will take two more hours at most.”
”Two hours, can we contact rescue?”
This sentence brought everyone’s emotions to the freezing point.
”Don’t panic.” Ji Tingyu comforted them: “The battlefield hunters compete with firepower. Their weapons have been blown up, and they are not as familiar with the road as we are. The advantage is obviously on our side.”
He is the backbone of the team. He must remain calm at times like this. If he panics, everyone will panic.
But he himself was not sure what he said.
If it were just him and Mo Shaqing, they wouldn’t be afraid of anyone they met, because the only one who would be unlucky would be the other person.
But Ji Tingyu still has seven team members whose combat effectiveness is almost zero. He must bring these seven people back safely no matter what.
What to do now… go all in?
He was so confused that he lowered his head and buried his face in his hands.
Someone touched his shoulder, and through his fingers he saw a pair of feet walking towards him. The owner of the feet sat down next to him.
He didn’t say anything, just unplugged the earphones connected to the signal receiver and plugged them into a mobile phone.
Then the scarred man’s voice flowed into his ears: “I don’t care about others, but I must get Ji Tingyu!”
After finishing this sentence, He Zhuo stopped the recording to prevent him from hearing the obscene words that followed.
The recording was made as soon as he discovered the criminals’ plot, and it was prepared for now.
Ji Tingyu did not react at all and maintained his original posture without disturbing anyone.
”Their target is you.” He Zhuo whispered in his ear.
”What do you mean?”
”Divide into two groups.”
Ji Tingyu then frowned and looked at him. He Zhuo remained calm, and his slightly hoarse voice was calm and powerful.
”If you tie them together, they will suffer because of you, and you will also get hurt because you want to protect them. On the contrary, if you let the criminals know clearly that you are divided into two groups, they will definitely come after you and let your team members go.”
”How do you know the criminals won’t split up and chase us in two groups? They’re not stupid.”
”I’ve already killed half of them. How can there be any more to split into two groups in such a short period of time?”
Ji Tingyu was startled.
”Did you plan this all along? Or did you just burn the car by accident? Wait—”
He suddenly thought of something, and his lips trembled: “Why didn’t you take out the recording at the beginning?”
Compared with the bloody cloth and photos, this is obviously the fastest and most powerful way to prove himself, but he took it out in the end.
”Because your teammates won’t let you go.”
He Zhuo looked him in the eyes and said, “Although they are weak in combat, they are very loyal to you and will not let you serve as bait for them.”
His voice was very light, like the sound of a thin layer of ice cracking, and his ice-blue eyes were gentle and harmless.
But Ji Tingyu felt as if he was being watched, as if he had become a chess piece on the chessboard.
”You thought of this the moment you heard the gangsters’ plot, didn’t you?”
So he recorded the video, burned the car, chased after himself, and used layer upon layer of evidence to prove himself, and finally he took out the recording and played it only for himself, because he knew that even if he took a detour, he would not be able to stop the hunter, and there would definitely be a fierce battle.
How meticulous a mind must be to set all this up in just a few seconds?
Ji Tingyu suddenly felt that he was scary.
”You make me feel like you have a bigger conspiracy.”
He Zhuo’s lips froze and he was stunned.
He lowered his eyes and looked at the wound on his hand, looking very sad.
”Are you willing to let me drive on the snowy mountain in fear for fifteen minutes?”
He said this in such a lonely tone that Ji Tingyu’s heart was frozen in the sea water.
”You know, I almost rushed down the mountain seven times.”
And every time he thought about it, what would happen to Ji Tingyu in this life if he died? Would the disaster happen again?
Absolutely not.
”I’m sorry… I mean, we just met today, and I don’t even know your name. I don’t know how to trust you.” Ji Tingyu looked like a self-blaming kitten, with his head down, in a dilemma.
He Zhuo couldn’t bear to see him like this, so he sighed, took something out of his pocket, held it in his palm, and handed it to him, with his knuckles touching his knee.
Ji Tingyu looked over and saw that his palm was open with half a cigarette butt lying in it.
It was the one he took from me…
The cigarette that was originally half left has now become as short as one-third. It is obvious who smoked it.
He Zhuo lowered his head, moved in front of him, and looked at him gently from bottom to top. What was contained in his ice-blue eyes was clear enough to explain everything he had done tonight.
”What if I said my conspiracy was just to protect one person?”
Alpha’s voice is intoxicating, like the hem of red wine dancing in the glass.
Ji Tingyu looked into his eyes and felt his heart being hit.
But he soon discovered that
Not only was his heart hit, but their car was also hit!
”Director! They are chasing us!”
The author has something to say:
Cat: What benefit do you want?
Wolf: I’ll tell you later.
Cat: I want to know now!
Wolf: But you can’t afford it now.
Maomao: Ah——I turned and walked towards the mountain——
Jack: You guys can talk about love all you want, but no one will speak up for me as your “good brother”.
Chapter 6: Beast Form Appearance
Following the roar, dense gunfire came like heavy rain, shooting towards their car from all directions.
The windshield shattered in an instant, leaving no time for reaction.
At least seven or eight headlights suddenly lit up on the two roads in front and behind. Someone shouted obscene words in English to force them to stop. The team members were knocked down and staggered. There was a streak of blood on the car door. No one knew who was shot.
